The huge thundercloud slowly dispersed, and the land after the rain was full of life.
Two little rabbits that had just been brought in were playing in the grass. They seemed to like their new home very much.
Wei Cheng and Bai Chuyi were floating in the air, looking at each other and smiling.
Bai Chuyi made a casual move, and one of the pink little white rabbits flew up and landed in Bai Chuyi's arms in a panic.
When Wei Cheng saw this, he still called the other rabbit over with his childlike innocence.
"It seems they have adapted well. We can try to let some cattle, sheep and horses in later. This is like a big pasture."
Bai Chuyi shook his head and said: "Without the restraints of natural enemies, the beautiful scenery here will soon be destroyed by them."
Wei Cheng stroked the rabbit in his hand and nodded thoughtfully... The rabbit plague in Australia is a living example.
However, looking at the primeval jungle in front of him, Wei Cheng felt that it was a little too cold. A world filled with only vibrant plants could easily give people an eerie feeling, as if there were some monsters lurking in the darkness.
Bai Chuyi may have felt the same way, so he suggested: "You can try letting some bees and butterflies in first."
Wei Cheng's eyes lit up and he nodded: "Indeed, many flowers here are extinct species. Perhaps the honey they produce will have unexpected medicinal effects."
Bai Chuyi covered his mouth and nodded: "Brother Cheng has really become a good doctor after a long illness. Everything can be connected with medicine."
Wei Cheng laughed awkwardly and said to himself: I don't know if your brother Cheng is a good doctor, but I am definitely not.
Wei Cheng only knows some knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine and physiotherapy. He usually thinks of himself as a pharmacist and would never dare to belittle himself and say that he understands traditional Chinese medicine.
"Let's go out, otherwise your sisters will have to worry again."
Bai Chuyi is the eldest among Wei Cheng's women. In front of outsiders, she calls Cai Yan sister. In her own family, the girls all respect her and treat her as sister.
The two returned to their physical bodies and looked at each other with a smile.
When he walked out of the study, he saw Xu Shu waiting outside the door.
"When did Yuan Zhi arrive? Has he been waiting for a long time?" Wei Cheng asked curiously.
Xu Shu spoke frankly about what happened during his trip to Xie's Mansion, and took out the sheepskin that Old Madam Xie asked him to hand over.
Wei Cheng saw that Mr. Xie was so mysterious and deliberately avoided Xie Yu, and became even more curious about what was recorded in the sheepskin.
When Bai Chuyi saw the sheepskin, he suddenly exclaimed: "This is the sheepskin map that guides the secret location!"
Wei Cheng's expression changed, he took the sheepskin and unfolded it, only to find that the sheepskin seemed to be just a fragment and not complete.
Xu Shu cupped his hands and said: "According to Mr. Xie, this picture is only a small part of it. If you want to collect all the other parts, you can only use powerful force, or..."
"or?"
"Or someone might offer it."
After Xu Shu finished speaking, he bowed respectfully and silently stepped aside.
Wei Cheng looked at the route map in his hand. Because it was just fragments, he couldn't tell where the specific mountain topography pointed.
Bai Chuyi frowned slightly and said, "I didn't expect that someone would actually keep this picture to this day."
Wei Cheng handed her the sheepskin and asked, "Do you know something inside? Can you tell me more about it?"
Bai Chu nodded repeatedly. She always had no reservations about Wei Cheng.
It turned out that in order to collect all the three thousand boys and girls designated by Xu Fu's organization, all forces were forced to take action.
Among them are the ancestors of several aristocratic families that have survived to this day.
After these people sent the boy wanted by the First Emperor to the designated location, out of various selfish motives, they sent people to secretly record and track the people organized by Xu Fu, and drew up a route map.
In the end, nine people gathered information from all parties and obtained a complete sheepskin map.
After the First Emperor learned of this news, he sent people to hunt down these nine traitors who dared to compete with him for the fate of immortality.
In order to force out the whereabouts of the sheepskin pictures, many heads of aristocratic families and local forces were killed, causing chaos in the world and the disunity of officials...
It can be said that the death of Qin II and the legend of the tyranny of the First Emperor are somewhat related to this incident.
But until the death of the First Emperor, no one found the parchment.
Later, there were uprisings in various places and the conflict between Chu and Han. This matter just fell into place and was never mentioned again.
Only members of the Bai family have guarded the secret for generations, and a few family heads have deliberately kept relevant information in the family tree.
Bai Chuyi also met it by chance. After hearing her father mention it, she fought for the existence of the sheepskin picture.
After Wei Cheng heard this, he frowned and said, "It seems we have to set off as soon as possible. We must find other Jiuzhou tripods before them."
···
The heat of June comes quickly.
The fields are full of green, and the swaying ears of rice seem to tell the farmers that it will be a good harvest season soon.
Located on the west side of Luoyang, near the official road, there is a farm belonging to the Dou family.
The owner of Zhuangzi rarely goes out. Some people say she has a weird personality, while others say she is a living Bodhisattva.
It took only a short time for Buddhism to spread to the Han Dynasty, and the mountain people near Luoyang called her a living Bodhisattva, which shows the fame of this woman.
"Miss, the second master is here again." The maid in a green dress stopped outside the courtyard gate, not daring to take a step forward.
In the courtyard, several medicine shelves are spread out, and the hot sunshine brings out the rich fragrance of vegetation.
The girl squatted on the ground, holding a small and cute feather duster in her hand, cleaning the dust on the herbs.
Hearing the maid's voice, the girl frowned slightly and responded without looking back: "Tell me I don't want to see him."
The maid had a bit of fear on her face, and it was obvious that the girl's answer made her very embarrassed.
After all, that person is one of the most powerful figures in the Dou family. As long as he says a word, this little maid like herself is powerless to resist.
As if feeling the maid's emotions, the girl added: "After dealing with him, come over and help me choose medicine. Go and come back as soon as possible."
When the maid heard this, she nodded with relief and hurriedly picked up her skirt.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The front yard of the farm.
Several elders and younger members of the Dou family gathered together, including the second Dou who appeared in Beiman Mountain in the morning.
"This girl is really unruly. There are so many of us here, how dare she..."
"Shut up!"
An Angzang young man in the crowd stood up, wearing a standard military uniform, indicating his identity as a Kirin Guard.
This person is Dou Qi, the eldest grandson of the contemporary Dou family and the eldest brother of the owner of this manor.
And the person he yelled at happened to be Dou Laoer's son, a famous playboy of the Dou family.
Dou Laoer saw that his son was in such a bad mood, he couldn't help but frowned, looked at Dou Qi, and said: "Qi'er, although your fourth brother's tone is a bit bad, it's for Shu'er's sake. How long have we uncles been waiting for her?
"
Dou Qi looked at his second uncle who looked unhappy, and said in a deep voice: "I can't wait any longer, so why don't you wait any longer?"
Dou Lao Er frowned, and his son on the side wanted to stand up for him, but he stopped him.
Seeing this, Dou Qi snorted coldly.
At this time, the maid who went to report the news came quickly.
"My young lady is at a critical moment for elixir refining. It is inconvenient to see guests today. She asked the servant to come and let me know, so as not to waste the time of the masters and young masters." After the maid finished speaking, she looked at Dou Lao Er nervously.
Dou Laoer's face turned visibly gloomy.
Just when he was about to explode, Dou Qi, who was standing on one side, stood up and said: "In that case, I think it's a critical moment for my grandfather to refine the life-extending pill. I really shouldn't disturb him. Everyone, please go back."
Dou Qi stood in front of everyone with a golden sword and stood between Dou Laoer and the others and the little maid. His meaning was self-evident.
The little maid looked at the generous figure in front of her with gratitude and admiration, feeling warm in her heart.
As for Dou Laoer's cold face, after changing again and again, he turned around and left angrily.
However, before walking out of the door, he stopped and said in a deep voice: "I hope she can be so tough when the old man comes forward."
Dou Qi's expression turned cold, and he also counterattacked: "Don't think that I don't know where the second uncle is talking about today. As long as the old man is here, Shu'er can't be used by you, so just give up on that."
Dou Laoer sneered and took the lead to leave.
Dou Qi looked at the backs of everyone leaving, and finally sighed helplessly.
"Shu'er is really making elixirs?"
The maid shook her head playfully, looked at Dou Qi, and replied shyly: "Go back to the eldest son, the lady is drying the herbs."
Dou Qi was startled when he heard this, and then looked in the direction of the backyard in a funny way, his eyes full of doting.
Although Dou Qi wanted to see his sister, he still held back. He knew his sister's temper. When she didn't want to see anyone, it was useless for anyone to go. Even if the old man came, he would be let go.
···
The next day.
A BMW car with a small Dou flag standing on the carriage.
Many passers-by who saw this carriage bowed respectfully to the people in the carriage and chanted: Bodhisattva of Compassion.
The carriage went all the way around the outskirts of Luoyang City and finally arrived at the foot of Beimang Mountain.
The embroidered silk curtain in the carriage slowly opened, and the girl whispered in confusion.
Not far away, Xu Chu and the Qilin Guards were burying the large pit created by the cannon and the cave at the bottom of the pit.
The girl didn't get out of the car, she looked at her from a distance with her clear eyes, and her frown gradually became rippled.
"Let's go back."
There was a bit of loss and helplessness in the girl's voice.
The driver turned around and asked, "Miss, are you not going up the mountain today?"
The girl didn't respond, so the coachman had no choice but to turn the horse's head and go home.
The carriage traveled to the west of the city.
The coachman suddenly drove the carriage out of the official road. The girl was deep in thought when she was jolted violently, causing a small cut on her forehead.
Fine drops of blood seeped out, and the girl's face changed drastically.
The driver also panicked and explained: "Miss, are you okay? Wei Jun is traveling, so he can only give way. I, I..."
Before the coachman could explain, the girl fainted.
After the driver discovered it, he quickly called for help.
At the same time, Wei Cheng happened to pass by on horseback. When he saw someone calling for help, he motioned to Hao Zhao to come forward and check.
Xu Shu, who was standing by, stepped forward and said, "It's the female Bodhisattva in the west of the city."
Wei Cheng was stunned, "What kind of female Bodhisattva?"
At this time, Hao Zhao left and came back, cupping his fists and saying: "To inform Mr. Wei, the daughter of the Dou family accidentally hit her head while trying to make way."
"Are you okay?" Wei Cheng asked with a frown.
"She fainted. It is said that this woman has a hidden disease and cannot see blood. If she sees blood, something will happen."
Wei Cheng's expression changed, feeling that he was suffering from a rare case of dizziness, so he said, "Let's go and have a look."
···
Night falls.
The fragrance of flowers from the garden fills your nostrils.
The girl woke up faintly, looked at the familiar gauze curtains and furnishings, and suddenly remembered something.
But because I fainted at the time, I can’t recall clearly.
However, there was a familiar smell lingering, and she couldn't help but frown slightly and murmured: "It seems that the medicine cauldron has been moved out."
The bamboo door was slowly pushed open from the outside, and a resolute face peeked in first.
When the girl saw this man, she stood up and said, "Brother, why are you so sneaky?"
The person who came was none other than Dou Qi. He came in carrying a nanmu food box and said with a smile, "I'm not afraid of disturbing you."
Saying that, Dou Qi hurriedly put down the food box, went over to help the girl up, and gave her a pillow to support her back.
The girl frowned and asked, "Did you send me back?"
Dou Qi was startled when he heard this and looked at the girl's beautiful face with some curiosity.
The girl felt uncomfortable being stared at by him and said in a deep voice: "Do you want me to kick you out?"
Douzaki smiled in embarrassment. In front of his younger sister, he didn't have the dignity of an older brother.
"Don't you remember, Shu'er? It was Wei Jun who sent you back and bandaged your wounds with his own hands."
The girl was startled when she heard this. She unconsciously reached out and touched the white gauze on her forehead, a trace of pain flashed in her eyes.
She faints when she sees blood, so she has been well protected by her family since she was a child. A small wound like today may not seem like a big deal to others, but she still feels very painful.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Remembering that she was touched by a strange man, the girl frowned, obviously unhappy.
Seeing this, Dou Qi hurriedly said: "Wei Jun acted righteously. He only cleaned your wound and bandaged it briefly. He didn't touch your body. You can rest assured."
The girl was stunned.
In the past, if I had been wronged in any way, this brother would have gone berserk a long time ago. Why is he defending others like this today?
Even though that person is Wei Jun...this is not Douzaki's style.
When it comes to matters involving her, Dou Qi is not afraid of anything, no matter who comes, he will not be able to do anything.
"Hey, Shu'er, don't look at me like that, I'm just trying to be fair." Dou Qi explained with twinkling eyes.
The girl glanced at him, changed the subject, and asked: "Did your Qilin Guards move a big tripod from Beiman Mountain to Beijing?"
Dou Qi shook his head and said: "No, after Wei Jun left, he only asked us to clean up the aftermath. Except for some skeletons, there are no valuable things inside. What a big cauldron?"
A trace of doubt flashed in the girl's eyes.
She couldn't remember it wrong. When she was in coma, she smelled a very strong medicinal fragrance from that Wei Jun. It was hundreds of thousands of times stronger than the scent she had smelled when she ran to Beiman Mountain in the past. It was just like him.
I am the elixir of life...
"Has it been eaten by him?" the girl frowned and murmured.
But if this is the case, where is the big cauldron inside?
Glancing at her brother Dou Qi, she didn't think that her brother would deliberately hide anything from her. In other words, the tripod in the cave was missing.
Think of this.
The girl stood up, held on to the bedpost a little weakly, and said, "Brother, help me to the alchemy room."
Dou Qi frowned and said, "Let's have dinner first."
The girl shook her head stubbornly and responded in a low voice: "Go to the alchemy room first. I have important things to confirm."
