Chapter 331: Just an Ordinary Person Among Ten Thousand People
Lin Zhebang said firmly: "I am willing to take out the golden elixir not for any other reason, but I hope Miss Yun can see that we have the same ancestors and unite in the future to carry forward the Li family's traditional Chinese medicine."
He looked at Yun Jiuxi and said, "To be honest, I heard that Master Fu is fine but has been in a coma, so I want to help him in some way. It would be great if I could help you. After all, we are the only two authentic descendants of the Li family's traditional Chinese medicine.
Although you are younger than me, in terms of seniority, you are my elder after all. Please accept this golden pill.
If you don’t believe it, you can ask someone to check the ingredients in it, they are all safe.”
Lin Zhebang said this very sincerely as he placed the box in his hand along with the golden elixir pill on Yun Jiuxi's office desk. His eyes were full of reluctance to part with the golden elixir, and finally an expression of having finally made up his mind to go all out.
Yun Jiuxi looked at the pill in his hand with great excitement, and said in a trembling voice: "Zhebang, are you really willing to give me this golden pill? This is the golden pill that can bring the dead back to life? We in Luocheng have long lost this kind of golden pill. This should be the last one in the world, right? Although I really want to save Tinghao, this golden pill is too precious. I can't accept it."
Yun Jiuxi said this, but his eyes were always on the golden elixir and he showed no intention of putting his hands down.
Seeing Yun Jiuxi's reaction, Lin Zhebang felt very satisfied but also a little contemptuous.
Yun Jiuxi was just an ordinary person among millions of people. Although her medical skills might be a little better than hers, she was a woman after all. Seeing her man unconscious for a long time, she was confused and didn't think that if this was really the elixir that could revive the dead, not to mention that she would be reluctant to give it up, even if she was willing to give it up, would no one buy such a good thing from him?
His tactic is called diverting trouble to others. Once he leaves the Li's Chinese Medicine Clinic, those well-informed wealthy people in the capital will know that Yun Jiuxi has the golden elixir that can bring the dead back to life. As for whether the golden elixir will be used to save Fu Tinghao or taken away by those bosses whom Yun Jiuxi cannot afford to offend, it is none of his business.
As long as he can give Yun Jiuxi a helping hand when she is in trouble, Yun Jiuxi will really regard him as her savior. With her gratitude and trust, she will have the opportunity to find the trace of the Yun family's secret treasure.
Until now, he has been searching for the secret treasure of the Yun family. He has heard his grandfather say since he was a child that when the Peng and Li families had not yet broken up, they were equally matched.
If it weren't for the fact that the son of the then head of the Li family, who was engaged to their Peng family, fell in love with a witch named Yun from Miaojiang, and ran away because his family disagreed, thus destroying the long-standing engagement between the Peng and Li families.
Originally, the marriage was a matter between the two families, and if the man ran away, they could just find another one. But at that time, the oldest girl in the Peng family was only 10 years old, and the suitable boy was not from the main family, so the Peng family did not agree.
You have to know that the cost of resources allocated by the Li family to the upbringing of their children is very different from that of children who are not from the main family. In particular, the son of the family head who eloped with the Miao girl was the most talented among the recent generations. So even though the girl from the Peng family and the boy from the Li family were about 10 years apart in age at the time, the Peng family was willing to fulfill the marriage contract. They just didn't expect the boy from the Li family to elope for a Miao woman.
After the Li family man eloped, the Li family cut off all his financial support. The Li and Peng families thought at the time that as long as they cut off his financial support, he would not be able to get used to the hard life and would come back sooner or later. It would just be a matter of waiting a few more years. Anyway, the Peng family girl thought that he was still young.
They guessed right, but only half right. The Li man who eloped with the Miao witch did come back because he couldn't stand the hard life, but he also brought back a boy, who was his son with the Miao witch. What was even more surprising was that this boy's talent was much higher than that of his father or all the previous ancestors of the Li family. This boy was the one who helped the ancestors of the Jiang family live longer and raised Li family Chinese medicine to the highest level.
Later, in order to make the Li family accept the Miao witch, her husband told his family about the secret treasure of the Miao witch's family. The Li family saw that the child was so talented and would definitely be able to carry forward the Li family's wealth, so they thought about discussing with the Peng family and let the Peng family girl find a man of the right age from the side branch to marry, or let the Li family boy marry two wives, regardless of age.
As soon as this suggestion was made, the people sent by the Li family were beaten by the Peng family and carried back covered in wounds. This also infuriated the then head of the Peng family.
The engaged daughter of the Peng family is the older daughter of the current head of the Peng family. She is so precious that she feels it is unfair for her to marry a man who is more than ten years older than her. The Li family actually wants both the Miao witch and his daughter. It is so shameless.
Later, the two families quarreled more and more fiercely and finally broke up and broke off the engagement. Later, when the Peng family went to inquire, they found out that these things were the idea of the son who eloped from the Li family. He thought that the Miao witch had a secret treasure, and the son they gave birth to was so talented because of this secret treasure.
He also said that the Peng and Li families had been married for too many generations and their blood relationship was too close, and that the Peng family had never been as talented as the Li family, so the Li family could not give birth to more talented people now, and they were all dragged down by the Peng family's bloodline. It would be better for them to break off the engagement directly, get married separately, and shine in their own fields.
The head of the Li family felt that what his son said was right, and since his grandson's talent was indeed amazing, he believed his son's decision and broke off the engagement with the Peng family.
This kind of thing can be found out as long as you are attentive. When the head of the Peng family heard the Li family say that his bloodline was not good and his daughter was not as good as a witch from the Miao ethnic group, he not only broke off their engagement, but also ordered that the Peng and Li families would never marry again.
This was the origin of the conflict between the Peng and Li families. Yun Jiuxi’s grandmother was the descendant of the earliest migrated Miao witch. So the Peng family felt that if they could also find the Yun family’s secret treasure, their descendants could be as powerful as the strongest Chinese medicine practitioner of the Li family.
In addition to wanting their descendants to be successful, they also want to see the Li clan members being trampled under the feet of their Peng family forever and unable to stand up.
Lin Zhebang saw that Yun Jiuxi even addressed him in a more intimate way than before. Although the address was still the same, the tone had obviously changed for the better.
He said sincerely: "We are all members of the Li clan, and we should help each other. I just hope that this golden elixir can really be useful to Master Fu."
