Unfortunately, the King Of Medicine didn't even look at it, much less accept it.
"Can't get away? It only took four to six hours to send a letter by eagle from Yaoshui Prefecture to the Medical Hut. In Old Man's opinion, you don't have a master like me in your heart, do you? "
As he spoke, he stroked his beard, looking very unhappy.
Han Yunxi only felt helpless in her heart! Although she called him master, she really wasn't familiar with him. When she refused to stay at the Medical Hut for ten years, she actually couldn't be considered his disciple anymore.
The King Of Medicine called her disciple and blamed her for not paying New Year's greetings, but he didn't really treat her as a disciple in his heart. Otherwise, why would he make things so difficult for her?
Han Yunxi explained, "Master, this disciple was really on the battlefield at that time, so I didn't know about the New Year at all. When I remembered, the New Year had already passed. Sending a letter by eagle is too insincere. No matter what, this disciple has to come to you personally, right? "
"Hehe, you don't come to the Three Treasures Temple without a reason!" The King Of Medicine sneered.
"That's not true! I came here especially to pay New Year's greetings and to ask for medicine! "Han Yunxi knew that her words were very hypocritical, but she still had to bite the bullet and continue speaking.
The King Of Medicine was putting her in her place. However, after this hurdle, there was no room for discussion about asking for medicine.
She opened the gift box in her hand and said, "Master, take a look. This is a gift that this disciple specially prepared for you. I guarantee that you'll like it."
The King Of Medicine didn't even look at it and said Coldly, "Since you're sincere, then don't leave this time. Stay and accompany me for a year, how about it?"
As expected, they were talking about this again.
Long Fei Ye, who had been silent all this time, had a cold glint in his eyes. He said Coldly, "Senior King Of Medicine, the Princess Consort came here especially to pay New Year's greetings. This King came here especially to ask for medicine. Since the Muscle Growing Ointment is with you, state your conditions. "
Like all the geniuses, the King Of Medicine was also a proud and arrogant person. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Long Fei Ye. He sneered and said, "Old Man, I'm afraid you don't know the rules here. Haha, no one has ever been able to get the medicine from the Old Man!"
"Senior King Of Medicine, you've misunderstood. I've never begged anyone! What do you want in order for you to hand over the Muscle Growth Ointment? You can name any conditions you want! "Long Fei Ye was not only arrogant but also supercilious.
In terms of age, he was not as old as the King Of Medicine, but in terms of temperament and aura, he definitely won by a landslide.
He didn't beg anyone, and he didn't allow Han Yunxi to beg and please others like this.
The King Of Medicine always felt that it was Long Fei Ye who stopped Han Yunxi from staying in the Medical Hut. He didn't like Long Fei Ye from the beginning. When he heard this, he suddenly became angry and said angrily, "Humph! Old Man's medicine is not something that ordinary people can get. Go away! "
"Since you can't get it, why did you ask the Princess Consort to bring the patient here? You obviously have a plan, haha! "Long Fei Ye sneered.
"This is the Old Man's business! It has nothing to do with you! "The King Of Medicine was so angry that he almost stomped his feet. He had never been insulted like this in his life.
"The Princess Consort's business is my business! What do you want in order for you to hand over the Muscle Growing Ointment? Be straightforward! "Long Fei Ye didn't give in.
"You … you …"
The King Of Medicine was so angry that his face turned blue, but he couldn't argue. If it was anyone else, he'd have ordered his men to chase them away long ago, but this was Han Yunxi, this girl.
Since he saw this girl's ability, he had always wanted her to stay in the Medical Hut, inherit everything he had, and become the authority of the medicine industry.
It wasn't easy to wait for this girl to come, so how could he be willing to drive her away?
If he directly said that he would only hand over the Muscle Growing Ointment if Han Yunxi stayed in the Medical Hut, he was afraid that Han Yunxi would be angry and look down on him. Therefore, he used the New Year's greeting to make things difficult for Han Yunxi, hoping that she would take the initiative to say that she wanted to stay.
Han Yunxi had been forced to say nothing just now, but Long Fei Ye just had to interrupt. It was really hateful!
Han Yunxi watched from the side, knowing that Long Fei Ye was relying on the fact that the King Of Medicine wouldn't drive her away, so he provoked her like this.
A sly look flashed across her eyes, and she quickly said, "Your Highness! How can you be so rude to Master? Since Master said that the Muscle Growing Ointment is in the Medical Hut and asked me to bring Doctor Gu here, he will definitely save people. Master is the best master in the world! "
After hearing this, Gu Beiyue almost laughed out loud.
The King Of Medicine's mouth twitched, and his beard curled up, as if he didn't know how to answer Han Yunxi.
Han Yunxi quickly stepped forward and stuffed the gift box into his hands. "Master, His Highness misunderstood you, right?"
How should the King Of Medicine answer?
If he answered "No," then wouldn't he become the "scheming" that Long Fei Ye said? If he answered "Yes," then he would become the "good master that will definitely save people" that Han Yunxi said.
The King Of Medicine suddenly felt that he had been tricked by this couple.
"Master, don't you think so?" Han Yunxi seemed to be acting coquettishly, but she was actually pressing him.
The King Of Medicine coughed a few times, and finally nodded. "Ah, it's okay if the Duke of Qin misunderstands, but Master is afraid that you will misunderstand."
"No misunderstanding, no misunderstanding! Master, let's go inside. Saving people is the most important thing. "Han Yunxi was really straightforward.
Unexpectedly, the King Of Medicine didn't bring them into the house. Instead, he led them around the Medical Hut and into a stone forest.
At the end of the stone forest was a cave. At the entrance of the cave was a stone slab with three large blood red words engraved on it, "Medicine Requesting Cave". The cave was pitch black and they couldn't see how deep it was.
Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye looked at each other and had a bad premonition. Puzzled, she asked, "Master, this is …"
"The Muscle Growing Ointment you want is indeed in the Medical Hut, but it doesn't belong to the Old Man. It was concocted by the Old Man's master when he was still alive and stored in this cave. Not only does this cave have the Muscle Growing Ointment, but there are also many strange medicines. My late master left a message that whoever can enter the cave and obtain the medicine will not be charged a single cent. If you can't obtain it, there will be a punishment. "
As the King Of Medicine spoke, a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes. He continued, "As for what the punishment is, you will only know once you enter. Girl, whether you enter the cave or return empty-handed, you have to think carefully. Even Master can't help you. "
"Esteemed Princess Consort, the Medicine Requesting Cave is very dangerous. You don't have to take the risk for this one!" Gu Beiyue said anxiously.
Han Yunxi smiled and said, "Taking the risk once to save your legs is worth it!"
What kind of danger hadn't she experienced before? She didn't believe that a mere Medicine Requesting Cave could hide a mountain of daggers and a sea of flames.
"Lend me a light!" Long Fei Ye said to the King Of Medicine.
The King Of Medicine was certain that they would go in, so he was waiting to watch a good show. This time, he had to make Han Yunxi stay.
Soon, the King Of Medicine brought over a lantern. "The two of you can go in. This Doctor Gu will stay. The Old Man will take care of him."
Gu Beiyue didn't try to persuade Han Yunxi, but he insisted, "I'll go in with you!"
"Don't worry, we'll be out soon." Han Yunxi comforted him.
"You'll only get in the way if you go in," Long Fei Ye said.
"Your Highness Duke of Qin, I promise I won't get in the way!" Gu Beiyue insisted.
Long Fei Ye ignored him and held the lantern at the mouth of the cave to inquire about the situation. Han Yunxi comforted him. "Doctor Gu, don't worry. Once we're out, you can stand up again. "
"If esteemed wangfei won't take this one into the cave, this one would rather not treat my legs! This one means what he says! "Gu Beiyue was very serious, his eyes bright. Han Yunxi gave a start. After knowing him for so long, this was the first time she realized that this gentle man had a stubborn temper as well.
Still, she didn't agree. "Doctor Gu, His Highness Duke of Qin's words are reasonable."
Miss Yunxi, I'm supposed to protect you. If you put yourself in danger to save me, then what's the use of keeping my legs? What's the use of keeping my life, Gu Beiyue?
"If Your Highness and esteemed wangfei insist, then this one has nothing to say. I'm just afraid that the two of you will have made a wasted trip. Even if you get the medicine, you won't be able to save this one's legs!" Gu Beiyue said coldly, his entire being turning Gu Beiyue into a completely different person.
He had plenty of ways to completely cripple his legs.
Han Yunxi was completely stunned. She only felt that the man in front of her was a complete stranger. She didn't know what to do. Long Fei Ye handed the lantern to Gu Beiyue without a word, then personally pushed Gu Beiyue into the cave.
Han Yunxi looked at their backs and didn't know why, but she didn't feel worried at all. Instead, her heart was filled with warmth as she quickly chased after them.
"That's right, Old Man forgot to tell you that you only have two hours!" the King Of Medicine shouted from behind them. He chased after them a few steps before stopping at the mouth of the cave.
He would never dare to step into the cave again in this lifetime. Back when he came here to ask for medicine, it was because he was trapped here that he had no choice but to stay here for the rest of his life.
This place was his nightmare, but now it was where his hope lay. He was waiting, waiting for Han Yunxi to follow in his footsteps!
Han Yunxi's group of three was quickly swallowed up by the endless darkness of the cave.
The King Of Medicine hurriedly walked along a small path at the side. This path was parallel to the cave, and there was a hidden window that allowed them to see everything inside.
Han Yunxi and the others kept walking in silence. Long Fei Ye pushed Gu Beiyue's wheelchair with one hand and held Han Yunxi tightly with the other. He was vigilant as he paid attention to the movements around them. He didn't even miss the slightest movement in the air.
Although Gu Beiyue's martial arts were completely crippled, his vigilance was still there. He was just like Long Fei Ye, paying attention to everything around them.
Han Yunxi was also on guard, the hidden needles in her hands ready at all times.
However, after being nervous for a long time, they realized that their vigilance was unnecessary. This cave didn't have any traps or ambushes. Instead, there were many checkpoints waiting for them to pass through.
As long as they could safely reach the last checkpoint, they could take away any medicine they wanted.
Soon, they reached the first checkpoint, identification of medicine!
A tightly shut stone door blocked their path. A little medicine boy in black stood in front of the door, holding a box of medicine in his hands.
"As long as you can identify the medicine in this box within the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, you can continue forward. Otherwise, you must stay in the medicine hut for the rest of your lives! Violators will be cursed and be plagued with hundreds of illnesses that can't be cured! "The little medicine boy's tone was stiff and emotionless.
"How do we identify it?" Han Yunxi asked.
"Stand five steps away. You are not allowed to come close. You can only watch," the little medicine boy explained.
Han Yunxi was amused. "That's it?"
This was child's play to her. Not to mention five steps, even ten or twenty steps wouldn't be a problem.
"That's it. When you're ready, we'll begin, "the little medicine boy said.
"Begin!" Han Yunxi was very decisive.
Xiao Shao slowly opened the medicine box, and Pill King, who was watching from the side, revealed a sly smile. He had seen Han Yunxi's abilities at Medicine City's Grand Medicine Testing Convention.
However, he firmly believed that the first checkpoint of the Medicine Requesting Cave would be able to stop Han Yunxi. Back then, he had lost at this very first checkpoint!
