The fragrance of medicine fills the countryside in 1990

Chapter 57: The Chiyou Family's Watch, the Duke's Mansion's Young Lady's Tips

After Su Chenjin hung up the phone, she looked back at Gu Xinliang. Her expression did not show any anxiety.

It was now nine o'clock in the evening, and the dormitory was almost closing time. She turned to Gu Xinliang leisurely and waved goodbye to him.

Time stood still at this moment, with only the gentle breeze blowing, causing her black, silky hair to flutter lightly.

Gu Xinliang's voice flowed like a spring, and he said with gratitude: "Thank you so much today. Everyone praised the dishes you cooked."

Professor Chen also agreed, smiling, savoring Su Chenjin's cooking tonight, "Delicious, really delicious!"

Su Chenjin smiled and nodded, with a warm light in his eyes, "As long as everyone likes it, I will be satisfied."

Su Chenjin is not the kind of person who is used to saying polite words. Her humility is just like her personality and does not need any embellishment.

Her voice is soft and warm, and I feel joy the moment I hear it.

Su Chenjin left the teachers' apartment and walked on the campus.

As the night deepened, the campus was silent.

The faint light shone through the window into Su Chenjin's dormitory, casting a soft shadow for her return.

Su Chenjin pushed the door open and walked in. The room was silent.

I saw Kang Duan Chenxiang sitting alone at the desk, concentrating on copying a yellowed copy of the Heart Sutra.

Her figure seemed particularly peaceful and isolated in the dim light.

Kang Duan Chenxiang was wearing a plain cotton and linen long dress, with her long hair draped over her shoulders, a few strands of hair dancing in the wind.

There is tranquility and serenity in her brows, and the troubles of the world have nothing to do with her.

Su Chenjin walked quietly behind her. On the table was a piece of plain white rice paper, on which the Heart Sutra was written in beautiful handwriting. The handwriting was clear and flowed freely like a stream. One glance at it revealed the depth and skill of the person who wrote it.

Kang Duanchenxiang had already noticed Su Chenjin coming in. She raised her eyebrows slightly, bent down, and picked up the pen to write.

The dormitory is filled with the faint scent of ink and sandalwood, which makes people feel peaceful.

The sunlight outside the window shines through the white curtains onto the table, adding a touch of warmth to the entire space.

The brush in Kang Duanchenxiang's hand slid gently across the rice paper, and each stroke was powerful yet soft.

She uses her pen to express the profound meaning behind the scriptures, making people feel a tranquility and peace that transcends this world.

Su Chenjin stood quietly aside, not daring to disturb the peace.

She looked at Kang Duanchenxiang and felt a surge of admiration in her heart.

In this noisy world, it is rare to find someone who can transcribe scriptures so calmly.

At this moment, Kang Duanchenxiang finished writing the last word, gently put down the brush, and looked up at Su Chenjin.

There was a warmth and kindness in her eyes. Kang Duanchenxiang hid her own state of mind.

She said casually, "You're back? The dorm auntie came to the dormitory today and said she received several calls from you."

Kang Duanchenxiang's words echoed in the empty dormitory with a distant rhythm.

The moonlight shines through the window onto the old wooden table, illuminating Kang Duanchenxiang's calm profile.

Her voice was soft and firm, as if carrying an unquestionable power.

Su Chenjin was slightly stunned and felt an inexplicable pressure, as if something was quietly changing.

She looked up and out the window. The tall buildings formed a magnificent city picture under the moonlight.

Su Chenjin took a deep breath, the air was filled with the freshness of the night and a hint of coolness.

She felt the pulse of the city, it beat within her like a powerful sense of belonging.

She turned her head and looked at Kang Duanchenxiang, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.

Su Chenjin was slightly stunned, then responded: "Oh? Okay, I'll go ask later."

Kang Duanchenxiang nodded, accepting her answer. After thinking for a while, she decided to speak out. She continued, "They are all calls from your family. I heard that your sister-in-law Jiang Yue is still in Jiangcheng. Why aren't you with her today?"

Su Chenjin explained with a smile, "My sister-in-law is going back to Jincheng today. I'll go ask her if she has arrived home."

Kang Duanchenxiang shrugged, looking like she knew everything. She said, "Your sister-in-law has gone back. She asked me to tell you that your brother's contract at the border will expire before the end of the year. At that time, you will still be at Jiangda preparing for the final exams. Your brother will come to Jiangda to see you with your sister-in-law."

Her words, like a seed, took root deeply in Su Chenjin's heart, waiting for the arrival of spring.

Su Chenjin nodded and called Su Jin. Su Jin on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "It's good that everything is fine. Your sister-in-law has returned home today. I'll call her later!"

Have a good rest. I heard that Dean Chen Fangyu's business is getting bigger and bigger! It is not an easy task to open up the two major medicinal materials market channels in South China and North China. You should take care of this matter first. The relationships involved are very complicated. I will ask Gu Xinliang to find out tomorrow and call you again!"

Su Chenjin simply responded: "Okay."

Su Chenjin assessed the situation and thought that Dean Chen Fangyu must have found her brother to discuss the success or failure of the channels in the northern and southern medicinal materials markets. If her brother could help her check it, the matter would be half successful.

After hanging up the phone, Su Chenjin found that Kang Duanchenxiang had put away his Heart Sutra and was sitting quietly in front of her.

There was a mysterious and ancient atmosphere in the room, as if ancient spells were whispering in the air.

Kang Duanchenxiang held an exquisite box filled with various treasures in her hand. The box was inlaid with intricate patterns and was shining with a faint light.

This is the Chiyou family’s treasure, the Tianqian Gang.

Su Chenjin poured himself a glass of water. The sound of water dripping into the glass was crisp and pleasant, playing a melodious melody in the silent night.

She picked up the cup and took a sip. The cool water moistened her throat and took away the heat in her heart.

Su Chenjin put down the cup and turned to walk to her bunk. On the bunk, the faint light reflected her resolute profile, which was three-dimensional and profound like a sculpture. She lay on the bunk, looking at the starry sky outside the window.
Kang Duanchenxiang held the mysterious treasure box tightly in his hand. In the center of the box, Tianqian Gang was like a bright star, quietly emitting a deep light.

Tianqian Gang is not only the only passage leading to the secret realm guarded by the Chiyou family, but also a forbidden area hidden at the junction of reality and fantasy.

It is like a mysterious crack that closely connects two completely different worlds, making outsiders full of endless curiosity and yearning for the other side.

Inside the secret realm, space is like crumpled paper, twisted and unpredictable.

Time has also lost its original rules here, and one seems to be able to touch the pulse of history as it flows.

This is a parallel universe independent of the rest of the world, a forgotten corner, waiting for the brave to explore and discover.

The thick medicinal fragrance that permeates the secret realm seems like the accumulation and inheritance of thousands of years, and every wisp of fragrance tells an ancient story.

The air here is full of vitality and can penetrate into every cell, making people feel endless essence and energy.

In the secret realm of watch, surrounded by mountains and shrouded in clouds and mist, you are in a fairyland-like painting.

Looking up, you can see towering ancient trees, with dappled sunlight shining through the green leaves. The interweaving of light and shadow reveals a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.

The soft green grass under your feet, every step you take is above the clouds, and you are in a misty and dreamy world.

In this mysterious and vibrant place, the guardians of the Chiyou family have been guarding the secrets of this secret realm from generation to generation.

They are fully aware of the preciousness and importance of this place and will not allow anyone to desecrate or destroy it.

They use their own power to maintain the balance and harmony of the secret realm, ensuring that it always retains its mysterious and beautiful appearance.

The Chiyou family's secret realm of watchfulness leads to Su Chenjin's secret realm of medicinal fragrance. At the top of the Tianqian Sky Bridge, Kang Duanchenxiang saw the secret that Su Chenjin hid in the secret realm of medicinal fragrance.

It was an ancient magic circle hidden among the grass and trees, emitting a faint and mysterious light.

Kang Duanchenxiang's heart moved. This magic circle was definitely not an ordinary thing. It was inextricably linked to the Guardian Secret Realm.

Kang Duan Chenxiang gently closed the exquisite treasure box, which was originally a family heirloom from the grandmother of Chiyou family. Kang Duan Chenxiang was the last member of Chiyou family. While protecting herself, she was also looking for allies.

The exquisite box of Baibao gleams with an alluring luster in the dark.

She carefully hid the box in the bottomless secret chamber of the Chiyou family. Only Kang Duanchenxiang knew the secret passage of the heavy and mysterious secret chamber.

After hiding the family treasure, Kang Duanchenxiang returned to the dormitory and turned around to face Su Chenjin, with a playful look in her eyes. "Su Chenjin." She spoke slowly, with a hint of cunning in her tone, "Your medicine fragrance space has malaria poison. This virus will ruthlessly erode all your medicinal materials and make your efforts come to naught."

Su Chenjin suddenly woke up, her peaceful sleep was completely broken by this sentence. She rubbed her aching temple, a trace of confusion and uneasiness flashed in her eyes, and looked at Kang Duanchenxiang, with a bit of urgency in her tone: "How do you know? Does this poison really exist?"

Kang Duanchenxiang looked at Su Chenjin, who was as nervous as a frightened bird, with a triumphant smile on her lips. She laughed out loud: "Haha, I was just scaring you!"

After hearing this, Su Chenjin's tension instantly dissipated, replaced by an indescribable feeling of helplessness and anger.

She glared at Kang Duanchenxiang and sat back on her bunk, only to find that Kang Duanchenxiang was staring at her intently, with complex light flashing in his bright eyes, as if telling an unknown story.

Su Chenjin took out the mysterious medicinal fragrance space from her arms. It was a miracle created by cutting-edge technology, like an exquisite miniature of the universe, hidden in her palm.

This is not just a container, but also a miniature world full of technological magic and contains endless mysteries.

She carefully adjusted the debugging buttons on the space, manipulating the flow of time and the breathing of space.

Those buttons were like stars, flashing a cold light.

As her fingertips jumped, the flow of time and the breathing of space seemed to be controlled by her.

Every time a button is pushed, the space vibrates slightly. In this miniature world, a mysterious power is being awakened.

In this magical space, viruses and bacteria melted silently and disappeared without a trace, just like snowflakes scorched by the scorching sun. The scene was like a miraculous purification process, and it was amazing.

Su Chenjin took a deep breath and felt an indescribable medicinal fragrance coming from his nose. That fragrance had the magical power to purify everything and made people feel relaxed and happy.

She got down from the bunk lightly and walked in front of Kang Duanchenxiang, staring at her with a pair of bright eyes, "What do you want to say? I'll wait for you!"

Kang Duanchenxiang looked at her, with a flash of surprise in her eyes. She smiled slightly, with a hint of joy between her eyebrows, "I was just teasing you! You are so cute!"

Su Chenjin blushed, unable to lose her temper. She nodded and said, "No, you must explain clearly! Did you find out?"

Kang Duanchenxiang couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this. "It's such a pleasure to talk to a smart person!" She paused and continued, "Yes, I found out your secret. What do you want to do to me?"

Su Chenjin deliberately frowned and said with gritted teeth, "You bribe me with a steamed bun every day! I also know your secret!" Kang Duanchenxiang couldn't help laughing again, "Yes! It's not tiring to deal with a girl like you! You know I'm from the Chiyou family, what do you want to do to me?" Su Chenjin frowned, "I haven't thought about it yet, let's keep each other's secrets, otherwise I can get away, but you will be in trouble!"

Kang Duanchenxiang put away her smile and touched Su Chenjin's head.

Her mood was as bright as the warm spring sunshine, and she felt that Su Chenjin was really an extremely lovely girl.

Her cheeks, as soft as petals, always had an innocent smile, which reminded Kang Duan Chenxiang of the peach blossoms in early spring, which were beautiful and charming, yet with a bit of innocent shyness.

Kang Duan Chenxiang gently stroked the patterns on the dark cabinet, and with every touch he could feel the years and stories that had accumulated on it.

She took a deep breath and slowly opened the mysterious treasure box.

Under Su Chenjin's astonished gaze, the treasures in the box blossomed like flowers, each releasing its own unique brilliance.

Kang Duan Chenxiang gently picked up a dazzling pearl, which was crystal clear and as smooth as jade, and its brilliance was so dazzling that it was difficult to look away.

Suddenly, the sky and the earth seemed to be torn apart, and a blazing holy light poured out from it, like the rising sun, instantly lighting up the entire dormitory. Everything else was eclipsed by this strong light.

The appearance of this light was like a sign from heaven, foreshadowing that something major was about to happen, making people hold their breath in anticipation.

This holy light just fell on Kang Duan Chenxiang's head, enveloping her entire body in a sacred halo.

Kang Duanchenxiang's face was filled with unprecedented tranquility and solemnity, with her eyes closed, as if she was having a silent communication with some mysterious power.

As the light gradually faded, a faint halo began to spread around Kang Duanchenxiang, like the morning mist, making her figure appear more ethereal and mysterious.

Then, Kang Duanchenxiang slowly stretched out his hand, holding the still flashing Gangzhu.

Su Chenjin looked at this scene, her heart filled with surprise and confusion. When she saw the Gangzhu, she felt a strong sense of rejection.

"How can I accept such a precious thing?" Su Chenjin waved his hands hurriedly, his tone full of resistance and uneasiness.

However, Kang Duanchenxiang just smiled indifferently, as if she had already anticipated Su Chenjin's reaction.

She shook her head slightly, then handed the Gangzhu in her hand to Su Chenjin.

At this moment, a mysterious world is opening its doors to them.

Su Chenjin widened her eyes and held the Gangzhu in her hand even tighter. She was shocked by Kang Duanchenxiang's words.

Kang Duan Chenxiang smiled softly and whispered, "This is the secret realm that Chiyou is watching over."

The secret realm is like an unfolding scroll, magnificent and mysterious, full of the majestic aura between heaven and earth.

The towering mountains are like winding dragons, imposing and awe-inspiring; the deep canyons are shrouded in clouds and mist, like a gateway to another world.

Standing on the edge, you can feel the pulse of the earth beating under your feet, and the hard and powerful rocks are telling ancient stories.

There are dense forests, towering ancient trees and lush greenery; the gurgling water forms spectacular waterfalls and the mist is hazy, making you feel like you are in a fairyland.

In the secret realm, wild beasts roam and exotic flowers and plants are everywhere; the air is filled with the fragrance of wild flowers, full of the primitiveness and wildness of nature.

The snow-capped mountains in the distance sparkle in the sunlight like silver pyramids.

Su Chenjin stood quietly at the entrance of the secret realm, not stepping in rashly. Her eyes were deep, and she thought a lot at this moment. The eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion saw the world she wanted to protect in this secret realm.

Kang Duanchenxiang quietly walked behind Su Chenjin, her breath as gentle as the wind. She stood beside Su Chenjin, and the two of them looked towards the secret realm in front of them.

It was Kang Duanchenxiang who broke the silence.

"I discovered your secret," Kang Duanchenxiang's voice was calm and firm, "I will tell you my secret."

Su Chenjin turned her head and her eyes met Kang Duanchenxiang's. A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, but was soon replaced by determination.

"I saw your secret," she responded, "and you know my secret!"

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became solemn. They stared at each other, trying to decipher the secrets in each other's hearts.

Then, Kang Duanchenxiang smiled softly, "Blessings!"

Su Chenjin also smiled, "Blessings!"

There was tacit understanding and trust in their conversation. Su Chenjin felt that Kang Duanchenxiang had a deep connection with her.

Early the next morning, in the dim light of dawn, Su Chenjin had already set out on the journey to the North China Pharmaceutical Market.

The night has not yet completely faded, the sky has taken on a light blue-black color, and the stars are still twinkling in the distant horizon.

She was alone, her figure looking particularly firm in the silence of the early morning. She was wearing a dark windbreaker, the hems of her clothes fluttering gently.

Deep in the market, Mr. Zhang’s office is like a quiet lighthouse, guarding a piece of tranquility in the bustling business world.

The door opened slightly, and Chen Fangyu came in like a spring breeze. Her appearance instantly made the originally quiet space lively.

Her smile contained a bit of anticipation, a bit of worry, and more of an indescribable nervousness.

"Xiaojin, you're here!" Chen Fangyu's voice was gentle and magnetic, like notes jumping on a guitar string, gently scratching Su Chenjin's heartstrings.

Su Chenjin nodded slightly. Her eyes swept across the office and she keenly noticed that today was different from usual.

There was an indescribable tension in the air, as if something big was about to happen.

Mr. Zhang is busy making tea with skillful technique.

The aroma of tea filled the entire office.

Chen Fangyu did not sit down. She stood between Mr. Zhang and Su Chenjin, her eyes moving between the two, trying to catch some subtle signals.

Su Chenjin didn't care about these. She took the teacup handed to her by Zhang Lao without hesitation and took a sip. The sweetness after the bitterness was like a portrayal of her life. Only after experiencing countless hardships could she taste the sweetness.

She put down the teacup and looked at Mr. Zhang with a firm gaze, waiting for his next words.

Suddenly, the phone rang rapidly, breaking this brief peace.

Su Chenjin was slightly stunned and glanced at the caller ID. It was Gu Xinliang.

She frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled, but she quickly picked up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Gu Xinliang's voice sounded a little anxious: "Xiao Jin, you are not in school today? Why did you go to Dean Chen Fangyu? Come back to me immediately!"

There was a hint of uneasiness and nervousness in his voice.

Su Chenjin hung up the phone without being affected at all and continued to taste the tea in the cup.

Mr. Zhang, who was standing by, did not hear the content of the call. He just smiled at Su Chenjin and said in a warm tone, "Stay for dinner."

His voice was full of intimacy and enthusiasm.

However, Chen Fangyu couldn't sit still anymore.

She stood up and said anxiously, "Mr. Zhang, I have something else to do. I will leave as soon as I finish my work here."

Her eyes flickered, as if she was hiding something.

Su Chenjin put down the teacup, thought for a moment, and then said, "Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Zhang. Please take care of this matter!"

There was a hint of firmness and gratitude in her voice. She knew that at this moment, she needed to be more cautious and calm.

Mr. Zhang waved his hand to show that there was no rush.

But his eyes inadvertently swept over Chen Fangyu. His eyes were deep and sharp, hinting at something.

Chen Fangyu's face suddenly turned ugly. Today's matter was not so easy to solve.

Just now on the phone, Gu Xinliang told Su Chenjin that Dean Chen Fangyu went to Zhanglao Market with Yao Lao yesterday and the talks broke down.

After Su Chenjin confirmed the reliability of the news, his face became solemn.

But Su Chenjin quickly regained her composure. She sipped the fragrant tea handed over by Elder Zhang, with a hint of admiration in her eyes. "I had Elder Zhang's good tea today. It's really delicious!"

The tea danced on her tongue, like a spring breeze blowing across new green leaves, fresh and sweet.

Mr. Zhang smiled slightly, with a bit of pride in his eyes, "As long as you like it!"

He paused, turned to Chen Fangyu who was sitting next to him, and his tone suddenly became serious, "You can only choose one between Yao Lao's South China market and my North China market!"

Chen Fangyu did not show any surprise or panic, but just smiled and said, "It's okay!"

Her voice was calm and confident, and she had already made a decision.

Su Chenjin gently put down the teacup and turned his gaze to Chen Fangyu, "Jincheng is in North China!"

Although the tone of this sentence is light, it carries a certain hint.

After hearing this, Mr. Zhang burst into laughter, and his laughter was full of deep meaning.

However, Su Chenjin did not stay to continue this turbulent conversation. Her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Gu Xinliang calling again. She glanced at Mr. Zhang, nodded apologetically, and then walked out of the office.

Mr. Zhang knew that Su Chenjin couldn't stay, so he couldn't help but say to Chen Fangyu, "If Miss Su Chenjin has a lot of homework today, you are welcome to come over for tea when you are free!"

Chen Fangyu also relaxed at this moment.

She had been quietly observing the conversation between Su Chenjin and Mr. Zhang, secretly admiring the young man's calmness and wit.

Seeing Su Chenjin was about to leave, she immediately stood up.

Before leaving, Su Chenjin turned around and handed a small treasure bag to Chen Fangyu.

The texture of the brocade bag is smooth and delicate, embroidered with exquisite patterns, and exudes a faint medicinal fragrance.

The fragrance is unique and beautiful, which can make people forget all their worries and feel relaxed and happy.

Chen Fangyu took the brocade bag and gently stroked the texture on it with her fingers.
