After all, even before the 21st century, not every family member in those glorious and prosperous ancient martial arts families could successfully cultivate inner strength.
Ever since the ancient martial arts families all returned to the ancient martial arts world, those family members who could not cultivate inner strength were also expelled from the ancient martial arts world.
Not only in the capital, but also in Hucheng and some other big cities, there were martial arts schools.
Most of these martial arts schools were opened by these people who were expelled from the ancient martial arts world.
A small number of them went to the Shaolin Temple to become monks.
As for the ancient medical practitioners, they must have cultivated ancient martial arts.
This was because only with enough inner strength in their body could they perform more ancient acupuncture.
However, the ancient medical practitioners only had the most basic ancient martial arts cultivation and could not be compared to the real ancient martial arts practitioners.
On the contrary, because they had to refine rare herbs and test them, their bodies might not be as strong as ordinary people, and many of them died young.
Unless there was really a person who cultivated both ancient martial arts and ancient medicine.
Unfortunately, such a person basically did not exist.
For many years, there were only a few people in the ancient martial arts and ancient medicine world.
If one wanted to cultivate both ancient martial arts and ancient medicine, genius was not enough to describe them.
Therefore, in order to protect their family members, the ancient medical families would marry into the ancient martial arts families.
Whether it was the ancient medical community in Hua or the alchemy community in Continent O, no one in the world dared to offend them.
Everyone would fall sick at some point, and only a miracle doctor could pull them back from the brink of death.
Family Meng was the only ancient medical family that was still active in the capital.
However, only people like Mu Heqing, Old Master Nie, and Nie Yi knew that Family Meng was involved in ancient medicine, not traditional Chinese medicine.
Although Chen Zhou was a member of Family Mu, she was not qualified to know the core of the capital, so naturally, she was not aware of it.
Needless to say, Mrs. Mu was a housewife.
Ying Zijin closed the computer and became interested. "How long is Family Meng's family history?"
Although it had been a long time, she could still vaguely remember the names of her disciples.
She had a disciple whose surname was Fu.
However, it was also possible that her disciple changed his surname later.
Back then, she had done a divination for her disciple. His name wasn't very good and would affect his fate.
"It's not short compared to Family Mu." Fu Yunshen nodded. "Less than 200 years."
Ying Zijin nodded slightly.
It seemed that she was not her disciple.
She didn't care anymore.
"Elder Mu's illness used to be taken care of by the Family Meng," Fu Yunshen said calmly. "But it hasn't been cured. There will always be sequelae."
"Yaoyao, after you treated Elder Mu, Family Meng wanted to recruit you into their family."
"I'm not going." Ying Zijin did not look up. "To retire."
Fu Yunshen suddenly smiled. He got up, walked over, and very naturally stroked her soft long hair.
His tone was cynical.
"Little friend, how old are you? Don't steal my words. "
His light amber pupils flickered with a faint light, like stars that flickered and flickered.
When he looked at her, his eyes would always soften subconsciously.
He hid the hostility buried deep in the bottom of his eyes.
There was only a bone-deep gentleness.
The emerald agarwood fragrance on his body faintly poured down and lingered around her.
Ying Zijin's hands that were pressing on the keyboard paused.
"It's good that you don't go." There was a hint of tiredness between his eyebrows. "Brother, you have a conflict with Family Meng. If you go, what will happen to me?"
Ying Zijin was slightly surprised. "What kind of conflict?"
Fu Yunshen nestled on the sofa again and narrowed his eyes. "Because of some things, I crippled a direct descendant of their family and was chased for a while."
His tone was lazy and had a different kind of sexiness.
His tone was understated, as if he was talking about a cup of tea.
"…"
Ying Zijin raised her phone. "There's still an hour left. Let's play online games?"
Fu Yunshen did not refuse.
The two of them logged into the game and formed a team.
While controlling the game character, she raised her head and glanced at Fu Yunshen with raised eyebrows.
The man's slender fingers slid across the screen. He was very casual, but every time he released the game character's skills, he was very precise.
He was wearing a white shirt, which complemented his mesmerizing face. He was full of a devilish aura.
Perhaps the IBI director and the detectives still didn't know that their highest executive officer was also on their wanted list.
**
All the celebrities in Hu City were invited to this ball, and the Fu family was naturally present.
After Su Ruan and Fu Yihan finished dancing, they went to the side to rest.
She naturally saw Fu Yunshen, but it was just a glance.
Did he think that she did not know that Fu Yunshen was able to enter because of Master Fu?
But Fu Yihan was different. He had a personal invitation.
It was obvious who was more powerful at a glance.
"Xiao Ruan, sit here first." Fu Yihan said. "I have something to discuss with Dad."
"Go ahead." Su Ruan waved her hand. "I can do it alone."
She also knew that there was an auction coming up.
On the auction list, there was a necklace that she liked very much. She planned to bid for it.
After Su Ruan ate a piece of dessert, she saw the waiter coming over with a cocktail. Her gaze paused.
She stopped the waiter and pointed at the tray. "Give me this."
It was a very exquisite glass cup. It was more luxurious and had an ancient style.
The cocktail inside was specially made and was different from the other cups.
Su Ruan fell in love with it immediately.
The waiter was stunned and said hurriedly, "Young Madam Fu, this is not …"
Seeing that he was not moving, Su Ruan reached out to take it.
She took a sip of the cocktail elegantly and even left a red lipstick mark on the cup.
Then she looked up and said unhappily, "Not what?"
The waiter panicked. "This is another guest's special cup. It is not provided by the hotel."
"What special cup?" Su Ruan laughed. "Don't tell me that I don't have the right to use a cup? If I like it, it's mine. "
She had been spoiled since she was a child and was used to being arrogant. She did not think that there was anything wrong with it.
The waiter was even more anxious. He did not know what to do.
It was only when he saw the girl who went to get the cake walking over that he finally found a straw to clutch at. "Miss Ying, your cup …"
"Oh, yours?" Su Ruan recognized Ying Zijin at a glance and said arrogantly, "Sorry for using your cup."
She wanted to show Fu Yunshen that not everyone could compare to her.
Ying Zijin's eyelashes drooped as she glanced at it. Without any emotion, she said, "It's dirty. Throw it away."
She was obsessed with cleanliness, so she always carried cutlery with her.
The smile on Su Ruan's face froze.
Her face turned green little by little and finally turned ashen. She was so angry that her whole body trembled. "Are you humiliating me?"
Ying Zijin yawned and tilted her head. "You can say that."
"What about you?" Su Ruan could not calm down. She turned her head abruptly and her eyes were dark red. "Look at how she treats me?"
Fu Yunshen lifted his eyelids lazily and raised his chin to signal the waiter beside him. "Give her a bill."
The waiter took out the bill book that he carried with him. After writing it down, he handed it to Su Ruan.
The words were clearly written in black.
Exquisite jade porcelain cup.
Price: 500,000 yuan.
Su Ruan's expression froze and her face turned red. She was irritated.
It was as if she had been slapped in the face. It was burning with pain.
Admittedly, 500,000 yuan was nothing to her, but this was a slap to her face.
It was a clear humiliation.
"Transfer the money in ten minutes." Fu Yunshen did not look at her again. "Don't make me rush you."
Su Ruan was so angry that she burst into tears. Her fingers trembled. "Fu Yunshen, just you wait!"
She ran away crying.
"Fortunately, I haven't used it." Ying Zijin wiped her hands. "It's quite disgusting."
"It's okay. I earned 500,000 yuan for nothing." Fu Yunshen chuckled. "It's enough to buy a few thousand more."
Of course, it was not an exquisite jade porcelain cup. It was a wholesale product that Ying Zijin bought on STAR.
It was 15 yuan each.
She was not stingy with her food, but she was not so calculative with the things that she used.
She would save as much as she could.
Ying Zijin pressed her head. "Let's go over there."
**
As the auction approached, the waiters had already removed the tables and replaced them with chairs.
Ying Zijin sat in the corner and closed her eyes to rest.
The blue and white glazed porcelain container that Mu Heqing wanted her to buy was the second last item to be auctioned. It was still very early.
She also looked at the auction list and did not see what she needed.
The ten auction items were quickly sold. The highest price was a necklace, which was sold for 19 million yuan.
"The next item is a tulip." On the stage, the auctioneer said, "It's a very rare hybrid species. The starting price is 10,000 yuan."
Ying Zijin opened her eyes, and the look in her eyes suddenly froze.
She could tell at a glance that it was not a tulip, but a snow ganoderma.
However, because the snow ganoderma looked like a tulip, most people would not be able to tell the difference.
Snow ganoderma was a very rare medicinal herb that could cure hundreds of poisons.
She had used it before.
Ying Zijin did not expect that snow ganoderma could still grow when the earth's resources were so scarce.
She thought for a moment and raised her sign. "One million."
This number attracted the attention of everyone present. They could not help but feel a little shocked.
Mu Chen Zhou glanced at the expression of the man next to him.
He knew that Family Meng came this time for this auction item.
However, it was impossible for them to spend one million yuan to buy it.
Originally, Family Meng had only planned to spend 50,000 yuan at most.
Mu Chen Zhou stood up and stopped the auction. "I request that this auction item be auctioned again. However, Miss Ying cannot participate, or-"
He paused. "You can also sell this tulip. Then, there won't be so much trouble."
----- Digression —
I'm bald. Really, I don't have any hair anymore!
But today is still a day of 9,000 words. OwO.
It seems that Young Master Fu's birthday, Singles' Day, is coming soon?
Ying Zijin: It's also a good day for shopping.
