"Well, it's used as a tonic," Lao Li said. "It has the same effect as ginseng, but I think it's better."
"Where can I buy it?"
"Renhe Clinic. Xiao Pan has it. The name of the medicine is Primordial Spirit Soup."
"Well, I've been feeling weak recently," another old man said. "I'm out of breath when I move a little. I'll buy a bottle tomorrow to try the effect."
"Try it. I saw the effect after drinking one bottle," Lao Li said.
"Why does it sound like you're advertising for someone?" another old man joked.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Don't you know my temper?" Lao Li was not happy to hear that.
"I'm a person who speaks my mind."
"That's right," another old man said. "When has Lao Li ever done anything to cheat people? Besides, his son and daughter are all promising. He doesn't need that money."
Most of the old men had retired from public institutions. Now that the country's policies had improved, their pensions were high. They received about $5,000 to $6,000 a month. They didn't spend that much on food and clothing. People like them wanted to buy health supplements. At this age, they just wanted to be healthy. First, they wanted to suffer less. Second, they wanted to cause less trouble for their children.
After exercising outside for a while, Lao Li returned home and saw the gifts on the table.
"Who's here?"
"Your son," his wife said as she came out of the house.
"He's been waiting for you for a long time. He just left."
"What's this?"
"Tonic. He said it's for your health."
"I don't need it." Lao Li waved his hand. "You don't even know your surname when you have so much money!"
"Tsk, your son is being kind," his wife said. "Why don't you appreciate it?" His wife said unhappily, "I just asked you if you felt better after taking the medicine. You have to change your bad temper!"
"Okay, okay, I know." Lao Li waved his hand.
It was quiet at night.
On Nanshan Hill, in the herbal field, Wang Yao stood there looking at the sky.
"It's going to rain and snow tomorrow," he whispered.
San Xian stood beside him and looked up at the sky.
"San Xian, can you see anything?"
Woof! The dog barked.
Hehe, Wang Yao laughed and patted its huge head.
The snow began to fall the next morning before dawn. At first, it wasn't particularly heavy, but it started to fall in the morning. At dawn, the snowflakes became very heavy. It was a sign of heavy snow.
"Hey, it's snowing again!" Jia Zizai got up very early. Getting up early to cultivate was a habit they had developed during this period of time, regardless of the weather.
"Let's go, wife," he shouted into the house.
"He's here."
The two of them went out in the wind and snow. Not long after, they met Zhong Liuchuan. The three of them seemed to have made an appointment in advance.
"A timely snow indicates a good year," Zhong Liuchuan said. "The coming year should be a good one."
"Yes." Jia Zizai nodded.
The three of them stepped on the snow and faced the wind as they climbed up East Mountain.
"Good snow!"
Standing on the Eastern Mountain, the surroundings were filled with white light.
Wrapped in silver, they looked like wax figures.
"In such a situation, we should drink a pot of good wine!" Jia Zizai clapped her hands.
"You always think about drinking." Hu Mei rolled her eyes at him.
"Let's start," Zhong Liuchuan said.
The three of them continued to cultivate in the wind and snow.
Snow fell on their heads and bodies. Gradually, more and more snow fell.
The three of them sat on the ground, not caring or looking.
It was quiet all around. They could faintly hear the rustling sound of snow falling.
After a while, on Nanshan Hill, a figure came flying through the snow.
He floated a few times as if he was flying and came to the side of the three of them. There were no footprints behind him.
Climbing duckweeds and crossing water, he stepped on the snow without leaving a trace.
After Wang Yao came, he landed quietly and didn't disturb the three of them. He stood quietly and looked at the three of them.
Good snow!
He looked around and sighed to himself.
After a while, Jia Zizai was the first to open his eyes.
He gently breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, the world was silent. He had entered meditation very easily. He felt that his cultivation seemed to be smoother. The trace of Qi in his body was flowing. There were faint signs of strengthening.
Hu Mei was the second to open her eyes, followed by Zhong Liuchuan.
"Sir."
"It seems that you have gained a lot today," Wang Yao said with a smile.
"Yes, we have gained a lot today," Jia Zizai said.
A snowfall, a cultivation session. Opening and closing his eyes, he felt that his body was more comfortable and his spirit was better. This should be like the legendary epiphany. A day of cultivation could be compared to a dozen or even dozens of days of cultivation. However, this state of meditation could not be maintained for a long time. This kind of epiphany could only be encountered and not sought.
"Good snow!" Jia Zizai sighed.
"Let's go down the mountain," Wang Yao said.
"Sir, can you walk on the snow without leaving a trace?" Jia Zizai asked.
"Walk on the snow without leaving a trace?" Wang Yao smiled.
"Yes, Liuchuan, why don't you try it?"
"Me?" Zhong Liuchuan was stunned.
Wang Yao had taught them the breathing method, a set of footwork, and a set of boxing methods, all of which originated from the ancient boxing scripture. After practicing them, there was no end to them.
"Let's try it over there." After saying that, Zhong Liuchuan's body swayed. He was already three meters away. His footprints were clearly visible in the snow. As he continued to move forward, the footprints became lighter. It was as if his whole body had become much lighter.
"It's really possible!" Jia Zizai sighed.
What surprised him was that Zhong Liuchuan had such an ability. How long had he practiced with Sir? It had been less than a year.
"I didn't expect Senior to be so powerful!" He sighed.
"Sir?"
"Ha-ha, let's go." Wang Yao's body moved. His body floated. Like a leaf or a piece of snow, he was already 10 meters away.
"Sir is indeed Sir!" Jia Zizai sighed.
The four of them went down the mountain. Wang Yao went to the clinic, and the three of them returned home.
It was still snowing in the sky.
At that time, many places in the north were snowing. In the south, in southern Yunnan, the sun was shining. The weather was very good.
Although the weather was good, Guo Zhenghe was in a very bad mood. So far, there had been no good progress in the case. Even with the help of the two people from the Valley of Thousands of Medicine, they had only determined one component of the poison. Although the poison was not everywhere in southern Yunnan, it was not a rare herb. As long as one was careful, it was not difficult to find it in the jungle.
"Sir, why don't I go to the Valley of Thousands of Medicine again to see if I can get anything?" Xu Xinyuan asked. "It's too dangerous.
"It's too dangerous," Guo Zhenghe said. "With the last lesson, they must be prepared. Yang Guanfeng and the others just went there not long ago. After all this trouble, the other party is most vigilant at this time. It's better not to go. Let's see if we can get something out of those people."
"Alright."
Bang!
After Xu Xinyuan left, Guo Zhenghe slammed the table. His face was full of anger. The people in Jing already knew what had happened there. The Guo family was a big business, and a tall tree attracted the wind. As an official, who could guarantee that he had no political enemies? After knowing about this matter, those people would inevitably fan the flames. He had already provoked criticism when he reached this position at such a young age. Therefore, after he took office, he did more practical things and ran his own business. Gradually, this kind of criticism decreased a lot. After all, if one wanted to find trouble, they had to have a suitable reason. Now that he had a reason, he had hoped to solve the case as soon as possible to reduce the impact of this matter on him. However, now that the previous case had not been solved, and a new case had arisen, they would definitely make a fuss about it.
Being too old and lacking in control wasn't a good comment. Moreover, once a bad impression was planted, it would be difficult to change it.
However, on this road, there was no retreat. One step back, one step back. It was beyond one's control!
Bang! He lit a cigarette.
It was night in Tianjin.
"Mr. Xu."
"Don't call me Mr. Xu. You can just call me Mr. Xu or my name," Xu Xinyuan said.
"How can I do that? After all, you saved me."
"I have something to ask you."
"Please go ahead."
"Do you know Miao Qingfeng and Miao Changhong?"
"Yes, Miao Qingfeng is the disciple of the current chief, Miaoxi River. In fact, he is also his nephew."
"Nephew?"
"Yes, the two of them are actually very close. Miao Qingfeng is mainly in charge of the external affairs of the stronghold. In other words, if there is something outside that needs to be done, he will usually be the one to do it. As for Miao Changhong, he is one of the few poison experts in the stronghold."
"Poison expert?" Xu Xinyuan's hand that was holding the cup paused for a moment when he heard that.
"Yes, there are those in the stockade who study how to save people, and there are also those who study how to hurt people. Among them, Miao Xihe is the one who is the best at saving people and hurting people. Although I have a grudge against him, I have to admit that he is indeed very talented in this area. He is amazing. When it comes to medicine and poisons, he is like a peak. Other people in the village are still very far away from him. Miao Changhong once specifically asked him about poisons and was praised by him. Not many people in the village have been praised by him."
"Who is the best among you?"
"To be honest, none of us are successful." The man shook his head gently.
"Learning medicine requires talent. It is not something that can be achieved by hard work alone."
Hmm. Xu Xinyuan nodded.
"Ah, now that you mention it, I do remember someone who is very powerful."
"Who is it?"
"His name is Miao Tianchuan. He is very talented and used to be the old chief. However, he escaped from the stronghold more than ten years ago because of something."
"Miao Tianchuan?" Xu Xinyuan remembered the name in his heart.
