The elixir obtained by the country was almost gone after it was given to the Shenlong Group. However, the other special operations groups did not have the elixir and could only rely on their own cultivation, which could not improve their strength at all.
Once the country cooperates with the Chen family, the Chen family will have the medicinal materials provided by the Long State, and the Long State can get more elixirs. They will benefit from both, but the Guwu Sect does not have the medicinal materials provided by the Long State. Their strength
It will be difficult to improve.
It may even be surpassed by the Dragon Kingdom, which has obtained a large amount of elixirs, which will greatly damage the interests of all ancient martial arts sects.
As a result, all the ancient martial arts sects united to put pressure on the country. However, the Long family had been under the control of the major ancient martial arts sects and had already endured enough. How could they miss such a good opportunity.
The Dragon Kingdom did not agree, and those ancient martial arts sects did not have much to do. Their individual force was indeed powerful, but they still lived in the territory of the Dragon Kingdom, and now is the era of high technology, and the ancient martial arts were not as powerful as in ancient times.
So scary.
Guns and artillery also pose a huge threat to ancient warriors. At the same time, the country has more advanced technologies. Once the country is pushed into a hurry, a missile is enough to wipe out their sect.
Therefore, those ancient martial arts sects found the Chen family and wanted the Chen family to take the initiative to stop cooperation with the country.
But the Chen family now needs a large amount of medicinal materials to leverage their family's expertise. If they do not cooperate with the country, without medicinal materials, they will soon decline. Even because of the lack of medicinal materials, many future generations will not be willing to learn alchemy anymore.
In this way, as long as the older generation dies, the Chen family's alchemy skills will also disappear.
Naturally, the Chen family did not want to see this kind of thing, so no matter how the ancient martial arts sect put pressure on them, they did not agree to cancel the cooperation with the country. Moreover, the Chen family also thought that this was cooperation with the country after all. These ancient martial arts sects
No matter what they say, they don't dare to cause too much trouble, otherwise they will offend the country and they will never get over it.
But what no one expected was that just after the cooperation between the Chen family and the Guwu sect was concluded, on New Year's Eve of that year, a group of masked men broke into the Chen family and not only took away everything from the Chen family, but also
It was a bloodbath that completely wiped out the Chen family. There were more than a hundred people in the entire family. Except for Chen Donghui who was not at home, only her three-year-old sister was missing.
The Chinese New Year was originally a festive day for family reunion in the Dragon Kingdom, but it became the day when the Chen family was exterminated. It was also the day that Chen Donghui, who had escaped with his life, feared the most, so he changed his name to Wang Danian, which actually means forgetting the New Year.
, he never wants to live like this.
Wang Danian hesitated for a moment, then opened the package. Three small boxes appeared in his eyes. He picked up one and put the others next to it. When he opened the box, one was eight centimeters long and covered in blood red. It looked like it had been put away.
Something like a big umbrella appeared in Wang Danian's eyes.
Zhao Chen took a look and saw that he knew this thing. It was called a snake-headed fungus. It grew on animal feces. He had seen it a lot when he was a child. However, this thing was poisonous. In addition, the common snake-headed fungus was vermilion in color, not crimson, and would also
There was a foul smell, but the contents in the box did not smell bad, but had a refreshing fragrance.
"This is a ghost pen." Wang Danian was shocked. He quickly picked it up and looked at it carefully before confirming: "This is indeed a ghost pen. Looking at the year, it should be eighty years old. It's really good."
"Isn't this a snake-head fungus?" Zhao Chen asked curiously: "Why did it become a ghost pen in your mouth?"
"Phantom pens are also called snakehead mushrooms, snake egg eggs, dog whip ginseng, etc. They are poisonous and are generally used to treat gunshot wounds and sores. However, they are ordinary ghost pens. After ten years of use, the medicinal properties of ghost pens will disappear.
changes, and after fifty years, its toxicity will be eliminated and it will become our ancient
It is an extremely precious medicinal material for martial arts." Wang Danian said excitedly: "It's just that the ghost pen belongs to the fungus. Unless it is in some special places, it is impossible for it to exist for more than one year. Therefore, even ten years of ghost pen is very important in the ancient martial arts world.
It’s precious, not to mention that this one has reached eighty years.”
With that said, Wang Danian picked up the other two boxes and opened them. Every time he opened a box, he couldn't help but exclaim with excitement. Finally, as if he was afraid of being robbed by Zhao Chen, he held it tightly in his arms.
He has been a famous medicine refining genius in the Chen family since he was a child, and his medicine refining skills are also very sophisticated. Unfortunately, these years, relying on his own ability and fear of being known to outsiders, he has not been able to collect good medicinal materials, so he can only use them.
Some common medicinal materials to practice hand training.
Now that he saw such precious medicinal materials, how could he let it go?
"Brother Wang, you don't have to be like this, I won't rob you." Zhao Chen couldn't laugh or cry when he saw Brother Wang guarding himself like a thief. "Besides, this thing can only play its greatest role in your hands."
, it’s of no use to me holding them.”
Wang Danian's face turned red, and he immediately changed the subject and said seriously: "The identity of the person who gave you something is not simple. He actually gave you such a precious thing. It seems that he has great expectations for you."
Zhao Chen pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I won't hide it from you. These things were given to me by the team leader of the Eastern Divine Sword. Although the Eastern Divine Sword is the most powerful special operations team besides the Eastern Divine Dragon,
In recent years, I have also been the most severely suppressed by Dongfang Shenlong. He is under a lot of pressure. If I guess correctly, he wants me to improve my strength as soon as possible so that I can help him bear some of the pressure."
"I also know the tyranny of the Shenlong Group. According to the agreement between the Dragon Kingdom and those ancient martial arts sects, all the medicinal materials of the Dragon Kingdom will be handed over to the ancient martial arts sects to be refined into elixirs. He gave these medicinal materials to you, and he also endured a huge amount of pain.
The risk." Brother Wang sighed and said: "It seems that the Dragon Kingdom's tolerance for the Shenlong Group has reached its limit. Otherwise, even the leader of the Eastern Divine Sword would not dare to give us such a precious thing.
.”
"That should be the case, so we must become stronger as soon as possible." Zhao Chen nodded and said, "I have been abroad for a few years and have collected two suitable medicinal materials. I will get them to you."
"You actually have some private goods, go away quickly, I'll go with you." Wang Danian urged Zhao Chen and walked out of the gate. Zhao Chen greeted Li Liangping and drove out with Wang Danian.
.
Zhao Chen took Brother Wang to the orphanage. As soon as he got off the car, he saw Mother Lu talking to a middle-aged man in his forties, who looked very kind and always had a smile on his face.
"Xiao Chen'er, where have you and Gu Rou gone these two days, and why haven't you come back for two days?" Mother Lu asked with concern as soon as she saw Zhao Chen.
"We bought a house outside." Zhao Chen said: "We may not come back very often in the future."
"Why do you go out to buy a house? How much does it cost?" Mother Lu said reproachfully: "Don't you think this is your home anymore?"
"This will always be our home." Zhao Chen quickly explained: "I have opened a security company in the city. I will often take them for training in the future. I will come back late. Grandpa Li is getting older, and the children are also
I feel bad for always disturbing them when they need a rest!"
"That's it, then you have to come back to see us often in the future. The children will miss you." Mother Lu also understood Zhao Chen and the two of them. In the past, there was only Gu Rou alone, so it was okay to live here, but now the two of them
, it must be a little inconvenient to live here.
After all, there are many children here. If they do something intimate, it will have a bad impact on the children and make them embarrassed.
"We will come back when we have time." Zhao Chen said with a smile: "In addition, Gu Rou plans to find a teacher to help the children learn."
"There's no need for this. We can also tutor the children." Mother Lu's face changed slightly and she quickly refused.
"Mother Lu, you have already worked very hard to take care of your children. What will the children do if you are exhausted?" Zhao Chen said with a smile: "Gu Rou and I have already discussed it. We will pay for this teacher's salary. You just have to pay for it."
Just help her find a place to live."
"Okay, I'll thank you on behalf of the children." Mother Lu showed a happy smile on her face.
"You just said this is our home, why are you being polite to us?" Zhao Chen smiled and glanced at the middle-aged man next to him.
Mother Lu quickly introduced: "This is Mr. Huo Song. He is from Dingyang. He does business in our Jinlin and often comes here to see the children."
"Hello, Mr. Huo Song, my name is Zhao Chen. I opened a security company in Jinlin." Zhao Chen took the initiative to say hello to Huo Song. There are often kind-hearted people coming to the orphanage. Zhao Chen saw him here.
Huo Song didn't feel that strange either.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao Chen." Huo Song also shook hands with Zhao Chen politely. Seeing that Wang Danian couldn't wait, Zhao Chen and Huo Song said a few polite words and took Wang Danian upstairs.
As soon as Zhao Chen left, Huo Song's face darkened slightly and he asked Mother Lu: "Dean Lu, let's go see the child."
Taking Wang Danian to his room, Zhao Chen took out his small box from under the bed, opened it, and handed the tightly wrapped thing inside to Wang Danian, "The two medicinal materials are inside."
Wang Danian immediately put down what he was holding and couldn't wait to open it.
"A century-old Polygonatum sibiricum, a sixty-year-old icy flower." Huo Song's breathing became rapid when he saw the two things in the box, especially when he saw the icy flower with three small flowers, his eyes were filled with tears.
Opened wide.
Ice flowers are herbaceous plants that grow in spring and die in winter, so it is basically difficult to survive the winter. However, Huo Song read in an ancient book in his family that some ice flowers can indeed survive the winter, and some grow for decades without withering.
Moreover, every thirty years, the Ice Flower will bloom another small flower under the original big flower. But after the small flower grows, it will be more harsh on the local environment where it grows. If it cannot adapt to the local environment,
Soon you will die.
An icy flower with two small flowers like Zhao Chen's has never appeared in thousands of years. Even a ten-year-old icy flower is rare. It is definitely a good thing that the ancient martial arts community is fighting for.
