Why did he look like an idiot?
Could it be that his soul was stolen by something?
Patriarch Fu looked at Fu Chen suspiciously and waved his hand in front of him.
"Damn!" Fu Chen woke up and jumped up, "No time, I don't have time to talk to you now, I'm going to find the Old Ancestor!"
With that, he ran away like a rabbit.
In the Fu Family, only Fu Chen was a dual cultivator of ancient medicine and ancient martial arts. Patriarch Fu did not have any ancient martial arts cultivation, so he could only watch as Fu Chen ran away.
Patriarch Fu was angry but helpless, "Stinky brat, don't let me catch you."
Fu Chen ran to the Book Collection Pavilion at an extremely fast speed.
Because he made too much noise, he was kicked out by Fu Xi.
Fu Chen finally felt the pain in his butt, he did not know whether to laugh or cry, "Old, Old Ancestor, I came to tell you important news, why did you kick me again?"
Fu Xi was still flipping through the book, "What news?"
"Old Ancestor, why are you so stupid? Why don't you just ask Ancestor Master who her disciple is? " Fu Chen spread his hands, "Anyway, Ancestor Master is not that hard to get close to, at most I'll just give her more money and food."
Fu Xi turned his head and raised his hand, his inner strength surging.
"Old Ancestor, I was wrong." Fu Chen did not dare to play tricks, "If you don't dare to ask, I'll help you ask. Ancestor Master told me that she has a disciple called Feng Xiu."
Fu Xi stood rooted to the ground in disbelief. "It's actually him?"
The number one ancient martial artist, Feng Xiu!
This name, no ancient martial artist would be unfamiliar with it.
Many ancient martial arts clans would worship Feng Xiu, as if he was their ancestor, they would even burn incense when worshipping their ancestors.
"That's right." Fu Chen said, "Ancestor Master still has such a powerful disciple, Old Ancestor, even if the Xie Family went all out, they would not be able to win, what are you worried about?"
The higher the ancient martial arts cultivation, the greater the difference between each year.
A two hundred year old ancient martial artist, even a hundred ancient martial arts masters would not be able to defeat him.
This was also why the Xie family had been so arrogant until now.
The Elder Ancestor of the Xie Clan had nearly 400 years of ancient martial arts cultivation. An ancient martial art practitioner with 300 years of cultivation was no different from an ordinary person in front of him. He could kill him with a wave of his hand.
However, although Fu Xi was shocked, his expression was still worried.
"It seems that not only is the origin of ancient medicine related to Master, but also the origin of ancient martial arts." Fu Xi thought for a moment. "Feng Xiu and I are not from the same generation. He is more than two hundred years older than me, but I have never seen him before."
"When I was young, he basically never came out."
In terms of age, she had to address Feng Xiu as Old Ancestor.
Fu Xi had always wondered who Ying Zijin was to be able to create such miraculous things like ancient medicine and ancient martial arts.
Fu Chen nodded. "That's good. That proves that his cultivation is definitely not lower than four hundred years."
"Not good." Fu Xi shook his head slightly. "I have asked Master, and I have personally experienced it. Ancient martial arts practitioners are not immortal. No matter how big the limit of human beings is, there is still a limit."
"The lifespan of an ancient martial art practitioner, even if Master personally teaches, is only five hundred years. The limit of other ancient martial arts practitioners' lifespan is around three hundred years."
Fu Chen was stunned.
Fu Xi said indifferently, "Let's not talk about whether we can find Feng Xiu first. The most important question is, is he still alive?"
Fu Chen did not speak anymore.
The number one ancient martial art practitioner had become a legend to the younger generation of the ancient martial arts world.
Not many people had seen him.
"I don't know about Feng Xiu's existence, and Feng Xiu will not know about my existence." Fu Xi sighed. "Even if I spread the news that Master is still alive, how do you know that Feng Xiu will come out?"
"Even if he is still alive, he is probably in seclusion and does not know anything about what is happening in the outside world. The ancient martial arts world is so big, and no one can surpass him in cultivation. It is impossible to find him even if you want to."
Fu Chen fell into silence. After a while, he said, "Then what should we do now?"
He thought that as long as the number one ancient martial art practitioner was alive, could the Xie family overturn the sky?
"Let's take one step at a time." Fu Xi put down the book. "At least for now, I can still protect Master for a while."
**
End of March.
Ji family.
Ying Zijin came back today. Wen Fengmian personally cooked a meal.
Because of the destruction of the original ancient martial arts family, the Ji family had completely cut ties with the ancient martial arts world and focused on experiments and research.
Ji Yihang did not know that his brother had become a consecrator of the Hall of Justice.
After the meal, Ji Yihang and Wen Fengmian went to the laboratory to continue the experiment.
"Yingshen." In the kitchen, Ji Li held a bowl and complained, "If you don't go back to Imperial University, Professor Zuo Li will turn the Ji family upside down. I have been stopped by him several times. He asked me if you were taken away by some shameless person in Continent O."
Ying Zijin pressed her head.
She had been so busy that she had forgotten about Zuo Li.
"Tell him that I will go back after resting for a few days."
Ji Li nodded and began to wash the dishes.
"Xiao Li." Ying Zijin suddenly stopped and looked at her seriously. "Take off the bracelet. Don't wear it."
Ji Li was stunned and raised her left hand. "Yingshen, are you talking about this?"
"Yes, take it off."
Although Ji Li was a little confused, she still took off the dark green bracelet and handed it to Ying Zijin.
Ying Zijin held it in her hand and played with it. "Did you buy this or did someone give it to you?"
"I went shopping with my mother and bought it at a jewelry store in Dongdan. My mother often buys jewelry there." Ji Li hesitated and asked tentatively, "Yingshen, this … this can't be something written in some book that evil fortune-tellers use to harm people, right?"
She didn't blame her.
She used to be a proper college student, but now she had started to believe in metaphysics.
"No." Ying Zijin frowned. "But the effect is the same. It is indeed harmful. This is actually not jade. It is an imitation made with some herbs and ores in ancient medicine."
"Imitation?" Ji Li was stunned. "But that jewelry store is also a domestic luxury brand. My mother and I have bought it more than ten times. It can't be fake."
"Yes, it should be a coincidence." Ying Zijin examined the bracelet carefully. "That jewelry store doesn't know what this is. It is difficult for machines to identify this kind of imitation."
"But this bracelet is different from ordinary imitations. There are some herbs that are harmful to the human body added in it. Do you smell strawberries?"
Ji Li nodded. "That's what the receptionist said. She said that it has a natural fragrance and is good for sleep. That's why my mother bought me this bracelet."
"It can help you sleep." Ying Zijin said lightly, "If you wear it for a long time, you will fall asleep and won't wake up. Then you will go to the hospital for a test. The hospital will say that you died of old age."
Ji Li broke out in a cold sweat. "So poisonous?"
Ying Zijin didn't say anything, but her eyes darkened.
This was not done by ancient medicine. It was done by evil doctors.
It seemed that it was just as the Tea Saint said. The evil doctors were ready to do something again.
Just like Shi Fengyi, they had already reached out into the lives of ordinary people.
This was also a big taboo in the ancient medicine world.
"Don't wear this bracelet," Ying Zijin said. "You wear it. Remind Second Aunt not to let her know the inside story."
Ji Li took the bracelet from Ying Zijin. Her fingers were still trembling. "It's too scary."
"Don't panic. It will be fine for a few days. It will take three months for it to take effect." Ying Zijin comforted her. "You can see if anyone else in school has bought similar jewelry. If there is, let me know."
After saying that, she left the kitchen and went outside to call Fu Yunshen.
Ying Zijin briefly explained what had happened. "Sir, we need to check the supply of all the jewelry stores in the capital."
This kind of bracelet was made in batches. Once it was distributed on the market, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Okay." Fu Yunshen's eyes darkened. His voice was slow. "I've already sent people."
"I'll make a trip to the ancient medicine world." Ying Zijin nodded slightly. "It just so happens that Danmeng wants me to participate in the fifth-level examination."
**
During the fifth-level examination, examinees were allowed to fight each other.
However, everyone in the ancient medicine world knew about the competition between Ying Zijin and Meng Qingxue at the Winter Hunt.
Even Meng Qingxue had lost. How could they dare to fight?
Without any suspense, Ying Zijin smoothly passed the fifth-level examination in Danmeng.
After becoming a fifth-level member, her status and speaking rights had increased.
However, Ying Zijin did not pay much attention to this. The only thing she cared about was that her share of medicinal herbs had increased. She was now on par with the elders.
It was also in these two days that the ancient medicine world's annual training had begun.
Danmeng had sent many people. The three ancient martial arts families were also present.
Ying Zijin and Fu Chen walked up the mountain together.
Fu Chen lowered his voice. "Grandmaster, Shizun told me that the wind cultivator ancestor is very likely to have passed away."
"Yes." Ying Zijin was not surprised. She was very calm. "It is very likely. His lifespan should have reached its limit."
"As long as one is human, they will grow old and die."
Fu Xi's lifespan was already nearing its end.
She taught Fu Xi some ancient martial arts cultivation methods. Only then did she forcefully expand Fu Xi's body and extend his lifespan.
However, wind cultivators were indeed the limit of all ancient martial arts practitioners.
"Sigh." Fu Chen sighed. "If only he was still alive. With such a backer, the Xie family would not dare to be arrogant."
The group continued to walk up the mountain.
"Miss Ying, wait."
At this moment, a very weak voice sounded.
Everyone turned around. They were stunned.
The other Family Meng members were also surprised.
Below, a guard pushed a wheelchair and sent Meng Qingxue up.
Ying Zijin stopped and said politely, "Is something the matter?"
Meng Qingxue raised her head.
Seeing her appearance, Fu Chen could not help but be shocked.
Her face was pale and sickly.
Compared to a few months ago, she had lost a lot of weight. Green veins could be clearly seen on her skin.
Her appearance made the others frown.
Today, they were going up the mountain to pick herbs. It was also an experience.
Although the ancient medicine world was much safer than the ancient martial arts world, it was inevitable that wild beasts and other dangers would appear on the mountain.
The ancient medicine world had good feng shui and high air quality.
Even on a side mountain of the imperial capital, such a large water snake could appear. Such wild beasts were common in the ancient medicine world.
Therefore, Family Meng never allowed Meng Qingxue to participate in this kind of herb-picking experience.
Meng Qingxue coughed, her face even paler. She said in a low voice, "I came to tell you that I won't live for long. You should have noticed."
Ying Zijin did not say anything and turned her head.
Fu Chen frowned and looked at Meng Qingxue, confirming that she was telling the truth.
Ancient medicine knew how to read a person's face.
When a person's life was about to end, their face would also change.
Lifeless.
"I beg you." Meng Qingxue forced a bitter smile. "Can you let me live a good life for a few days before I die? Just a few days. "
"What do you mean?" Fu Chen's voice was cold. "You sound like Miss Ying doesn't want you to live a good life. What did she do to you?"
Meng Qingxue ignored Fu Chen and looked at the girl. Her voice was softer and trembling. "I'm really going to die. Can't you … be considerate?"
The guard could not bear it. "Miss, let's go back."
Meng Qingxue pursed her lips. "No, I'll follow. I've never participated in an experience before. I'll go with everyone this time."
The others looked at each other and did not know what to say.
If something happened to Meng Qingxue on the mountain, what would they do?
But there was nothing they could do. Lord Meng had already released Meng Qingxue. What else could they say?
So, other than the members of Family Meng and a few admirers, Meng Qingxue was walking. Everyone else stayed far away.
This mountain was a lonely mountain that had not been cultivated. But because it was well preserved, there were many natural herbs on the mountain. Some of them could not be grown even by the Tea Saint.
Fu Chen followed beside Ying Zijin. As he plucked the herbs, he learned a lot.
He put the herbs he had dug out into a bag and ran forward. "Grandmaster, we —"
Ying Zijin suddenly raised her hand. "Stop."
Fu Chen was stunned and became alert. "What's wrong?"
"Stop what?" A young man beside Meng Qingxue sneered. "You're not the leader. Why should we listen to you?"
As he spoke, he strode forward.
