Late at night, the lights in the Gold and Jade Hall were still on.
Xue Changkong was the one who had painstakingly written out the plans on his desk, as pieces of scrap paper were mercilessly thrown into the trash can. The kitchen of the Jin Yu Mansion was also in flames, a few of the chefs were also researching the five recipes that Ye Qian had left behind. However, after doing it many times, it was still unable to achieve its charm.
And at this moment, Ye Qian had already left with Fang Miaoge.
In the car, Fang Miaoge looked at Ye Qian reluctantly, and asked while mumbling: "Hubby, where are we going next?"
It was obvious that he had only spent a day with Ye Qian, but Fang Miaoge still felt that it wasn't enough.
Ye Qian laughed: "I'll send you home first, I'm going to the Old Xue's main house tonight to prepare some herbs. From tomorrow onwards, I will treat your illness! "
"Alright!" Fang Miaoge had a face full of disappointment, but when he thought about how he would be able to see Ye Qian again tomorrow, he also felt relieved, and there was still a trace of anticipation in his heart.
In the dead of night, the road on the Linhai was empty as well. Ye Qian's carriage soon arrived at the Fang family's villa.
Seeing the place, Fang Miaoge was still unwilling to get off the carriage, his eyes staring straight at Ye Qian.
The two of them looked at each other for a long while before Ye Qian laughed and said: "Silly Girl, it's not like we're leaving each other forever, there's no need for you to do this!"
Fang Miaoge muttered an "En" to himself. Then, he couldn't help but lean towards Ye Qian. His charming red lips automatically stuck to Ye Qian.
The scene continued for several minutes before the two parted again.
Not long after, the car door opened, and Fang Miaoge got off. He watched as Ye Qian left, then turned and headed back to the Fang family estate.
In the flower hall of the villa, Fang Hanshan had long received a report from the servants, he was all smiles.
After sipping the tea, Fang Hanshan laughed: "Ye Qian, oh Ye Qian, it doesn't matter if you're willing or not, in the end, you're still going to be tied to my Fang family. Miao Ge, this girl is not bad, not bad at all! "
The Linhai that descended from the night was incredibly tranquil. Ye Qian flew wildly all the way, however, his direction was not towards the Star Moon And Half Mountain Villa, but rather the Sky City.
After driving the car all the way to the entrance of his own villa, Ye Qian finally smoked a cigarette and got off the car.
Standing on top of the mountain range of the Sky City and gazing at the Star Moon And Half Mountain Villa at the other side, Ye Qian chuckled: "It's easier to go over like this since there's only one water gap. I really don't know if Old Ghost Xue would be surprised if he saw me suddenly appear!"
With that, Ye Qian's figure disappeared into the night.
Star Moon And Half Mountain Villa, Xue’s Mansion, Xue Qingming's study room was brightly lit, and from time to time, sounds of conversation could be heard from inside.
"Grandfather, why do you want me to leave the Linhai? I don't want to, I want to stay at the Linhai, I want to stay with grandfather, I don't want to go anywhere!"
The one who spoke was none other than Xue Ningshuang.
Xue Qingming's helpless voice then came out: "Ning Shuang, listen to me. "Grandpa really has some important things to take care of for the past two days. Why don't you go to your dad for a while, wait for your grandpa to pick you up after this period of time!"
"No, I don't want it. I want to stay in the Linhai!" Xue Ningshuang stubbornly said.
Under the light, the grandfather and grandson duo faced each other, neither of them willing to back down.
With a pleading gaze, he looked at Xue Ningshuang and said: "Ning Shuang, can you listen to grandfather once. Don't stay in the Linhai for this period of time, grandfather really, really has something very important to do!"
"No, unless you tell me what exactly happened, I definitely won't throw you into the Linhai alone!" Xue Ningshuang's tears were already in her eyes as she began to cry.
"Sigh!" Xue Qingming let out a long sigh, and said: "If only Ye Qian was still in Linhai, at least I would be able to feel a bit more at ease if I handed you over to him!"
Xue Qingming did indeed know that Ye Qian had followed him to the Yunnan, but he was also unsure when Ye Qian would return.
However, the person who said that had ulterior motives, so when Xue Ningshuang heard her own grandfather's words, she became even more worried.
At this time, a voice that was not a smile echoed in Xue Qingming's study: "I originally wanted to borrow two medicinal herbs, but I didn't expect that I would be here at such a critical juncture. Old Xue, looks like you have met with some trouble, do you need help? "
This voice was extremely familiar to Xue Qingming, who else could it be other than him?
Dressed in pajamas, Xue Ningshuang hurriedly raised her head and coincidentally met Ye Qian's gaze who was sitting on the sofa in the study room. Seeing this familiar face, Xue Ningshuang excitedly called out: "Ye Qian!"
After Xue Qingming saw Ye Qian, he naturally relaxed a bit and scolded with a laugh, "Hehe, Ye Qian, your cultivation level has risen greatly, to think that you could actually come to my Xue’s Mansion without making any noise. I, this old man, didn't sense anything at all. "Amazing, amazing!"
Ye Qian chuckled, he stood up and walked to Xue Qingming's side: "Just now, Old Xue simply overestimated the safety of beautiful lady Xue, I took advantage of this loophole!"
"Come on, kid, you're a little pervert. This old man has a lot of experience with this!"
After seeing Ye Qian, Xue Qingming's entire being relaxed, and no longer as nervous and serious as before, actually started to joke around.
Xue Ningshuang could also see from the side that her grandfather would definitely not chase him away this time.
Walking in front of Xue Qingming, Ye Qiansa laughed: "Old Xue, what trouble have you gotten into this time? It seems like it's quite a trouble to be in such a hurry to chase away beauty Xue!"
Xue Qingming exhaled, and waved his hand: "Sigh, it's all just adult affairs, it's fine if you don't want to say it, but if you don't want to, it's fine!"
The more Xue Qingming did not want to say, the more curious he became. "Old Xue, we are not outsiders, say it, maybe we can think of a way to solve this problem together!"
Xue Ningshuang also beat him up: That's right, Grandfather, just say it, just what exactly happened here, say it and we'll settle it together, it will also save me the time of being on tenterhooks.
Xue Qingming's face was warped, he did not look like he was intentionally trying to keep them in suspense, and did not want to say anything.
After his entire being was quiet for a while, Xue Qingming finally made his decision, "Alright, since you all want to know, then this old man will say it. This is actually not a big deal, but it is related to the secrets of our sect, so it has always been inconvenient for us to reveal it! "
"Secrets to our sect?" Ye Qian was startled for a moment, "It has something to do with the Medicine God Valley?"
"Yes!" Xue Qingming nodded heavily.
After a moment of silence, Xue Qingming softly recounted, "Back then, when I took on a master to study, the situation in the Medicine God Valley was already considered unsatisfactory. My Master, the previous generation's Medicine King only accepted a total of three disciples. One was me, one was the already dead Yao Jiaxin, and the other was our senior brother! "
"Let's not talk about Yao Jiaxin. He has always been unrighteous and wholeheartedly came for the sake of the Medicine King's Grimoire! Afterwards, he did something similar to killing his master and jumped off the cliff while being chased down by me, his eldest senior brother, and the surrounding disciples of Medicine King Valley. "
Ye Qian nodded: "I have heard of this before on Miao Ge's Bar Mitzvah!"
"That's right, originally Yao Jiaxin died, so everyone thought that Pill King Valley would return to normal. However, I never expected that on the journey to treat patients, the Eldest Senior Brother and I would have a serious disagreement, and the disagreement grew more and more intense, until it eventually turned into a fight over who was the true leader of the Medicine Valley. Of course, we are also fighting for the Medicine King's Grimoire! "
After letting out a long sigh, Xue Qingming smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Now that I think about it, I was really too childish and laughable back then. Regardless of the method, as long as the patient can be cured, that is the most important thing. Unfortunately, this old man understands too late! "
"What happened then?" Xue Ningshuang impatiently asked.
"Later on …" Xue Qingming thought deeply for a moment, then laughed: "In the past, I was ahead of senior in acupuncture, so I am sure that acupuncture is the true successor to Medicine Valley. As for senior brother, he was more adept in the art of sowing discord. Senior Brother and I argued for three days and three nights, but we were unable to come to a conclusion. In the end, we thought of a way to resolve the dispute, and that was to gamble! "
"Gambling?"
"That's right. Since neither of us was willing to accept the other's hand, we agreed to use a method that the other thought was wise in dealing with the other. I have specially concocted a poison, and as long as senior is able to cure it, it would be considered as your win. As for senior brother, he chose to place needles on me. As long as I can unlock the shackles of the silver needles, I will win! "
Ye Qian was shocked, and then he suddenly realized: "That means that the silver needle in your heart …"
"That's right, he was one of them! After all these years, this old man has suffered greatly. If not for the appearance of Little Friend Ye, this silver needle would probably be with this old man for life! "
Ye Qian chuckled: "Since the method of the silver needles has been solved, then you should have won! "Then why did you …"
"Actually, winning or losing is no longer important to me. The old man had been satisfied with the silver needles for the rest of his life. If he could stay in Linhai quietly like this until he died of old age, it would also be a happy thing. It's a pity that Yao Jiaxin, the traitor, has appeared at this time. "
"Although Yao Jiaxin's life was lost to the Little Friend Ye, his appearance has undoubtedly exposed the old man!"
Ye Qian was startled. "Could it be that your senior brother found you? If you don't accept the bet from back then, do you want to compete with me once more? "
"This is not the case. Senior brother was already over ten years old, and is now even more so someone who has been around for a long time." It was just that Senior Brother's successor was still alive, they had abandoned the title of Medicine King Valley, and re-established a new sect, called Chihuang Sect. People of Chihuang Sect did all sorts of evil deeds in the martial arts world. Through the knowledge they had of medicines to amass money, it did not take long for them to gain a great deal of momentum. When they found out that the old man was still alive, they rushed towards the Linhai. To put it nicely, they were going to complete their Master's last wish and fight with the old man again, and in other words, they were here for the Medicine King's Grimoire! "
Ye Qian nodded heavily, and laughed lightly: "Oh, so that's how it is. For a group of clowns like this, killing them would be fine, why would you care? "
"Killed him?" Xue Qingming laughed helplessly: "It would be great if it could be dealt with like this. This time, Chihuang Sect had obviously come prepared. They gathered the black and white medical experts from the martial arts world and declared that they would challenge the old man. If this group of people disappeared from the boundaries of Linhai in front of everyone's eyes, then this old man would probably not have the face to continue living in the martial arts world! "
"So it's like that. That's a little difficult to do!" Ye Qian rubbed the bridge of his nose, and sighed softly.
