The fragrance of medicine fills the countryside in 1990

Chapter 72: Su Chenjin mistakenly enters Yao Lao Pipa's formation, Gu Xinliang rescues her and causes trouble

In the early morning of the next day, the sunlight fell on the earth like a golden ribbon, illuminating every inch of land.

Su Chenjin walked on the morning dew, in a happy mood, and set out on the path leading to the world-famous Pipa Garden.

The path is winding and secluded, like an ancient time tunnel, leading her to that legendary history.

Pipa Garden, this ancient manor full of stories, is hidden deep in a sea of ​​lush green vines.

Looking from a distance, it looks like a shining pearl, quietly inlaid in this fertile land, sparkling with a unique light.

Every grape leaf and every grape in the estate seems to be telling a century of vicissitudes of history, eternally solidifying those once glorious and silent years on this land.

The history of the winery can be traced back to 1880, when it was just a well-known winery, renowned worldwide for its high-quality wines.

However, with the changes of the times, the name of the winery was gradually forgotten by the world, and was replaced by a poetic name - Pipa Garden.

This change was not due to commercial considerations, but because of an old man named Yao Lao.

Yao Lao loves poetry, especially the popular "Pipa Xing".

Whenever he strolled in the vineyard and looked at the bunches of grapes sparkling in the sun, he would always think of those touching words, as if the melody of the pipa was echoing in his ears.

So he decided to rename the winery Pipa Garden to commemorate the poem that fascinated him.

Su Chenjin walked along the path into the Pipa Garden, and saw bunches of grapes hanging on the vines like gems, crystal clear and emitting an alluring luster.

The sunlight shines through the leaves, forming patches of mottled light and shadows, covering the vineyard with a layer of golden mysterious veil.

The air is filled with the fragrance of grapes and the scent of soil, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

She was in a dreamlike world, every step she took was at the intersection of history and reality, and she felt the unique charm and rich cultural heritage.

In the Pipa Garden, Su Chenjin seemed to have traveled through time and space, and had a wonderful resonance with the literati and poets who once strolled here.

Yao Lao had already been sitting in the courtyard of the manor, his white hair fluttering gently in the breeze, as if carrying the traces of time and the aura of wisdom.

His expression was serene and profound, like a wise man who was detached from the world.

In Yao Lao's hand, he held a cup of fragrant Kung Fu tea. The fragrance of the tea was elegant and fresh, as if it brought the freshness of the mountains and the sweetness of spring water. He quietly waited for Su Chenjin's arrival.
In the manor's vineyard, grape vines are entwined around ancient wooden racks, and bunches of ripe grapes sparkle attractively in the sun.

The fragrance of grapes and tea is intertwined to form a unique aroma, which makes people feel as if they are in a fairyland, refreshing and happy.

Yao Lao sat on a wooden bench in the vineyard, looking up at the blue sky, a satisfied and peaceful smile on his face.

He seemed to have merged into this world, living in harmony with nature, and enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the years.

Just then, Su Chenjin walked lightly to his side.

She was wearing a lavender long gown and short jacket, like a fairy walking out of a painting.

She leaned forward slightly, fanning the breeze with the small fan in her hand. He looked up at her and said softly, "The weather is so nice today! The grapes are ripe, Miss Su, do you like to eat grapes?"

There was a kind and friendly feeling in his voice, like an old man telling his granddaughter about family matters.

Su Chenjin sat on the rattan chair opposite Yao Lao, her voice soft and sweet: "I don't eat much!"

Sujiazhuang is located in the north and grapes are not abundant. Su Chenjin only tasted grapes once when he was twelve years old, when he followed his father Su Dali to the province.

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao burst into laughter, and his laughter echoed in the vineyard.

He patted the table and said proudly: "Today we will have enough food to eat!"

His smile showed that of an elder showing his generosity to his guests.

Su Chenjin asked curiously, "Is this a bumper harvest of grapes at Yaolao Manor?"

Yao Lao nodded and said proudly, "That's right!"

Deep in the vineyard, Yao Lao enthusiastically acted as Su Chenjin's guide. His fingers gently slid over the bunches of crystal clear grapes as if he was caressing his own children.

Every grape was like a treasure to him. He introduced their varieties, characteristics and the stories behind them to Su Chenjin in detail.

Each of those grapes seems to carry Yao Lao's emotions and memories, telling of his hard work and years of accumulation.

"Ms. Su, look, this year's production of Beauty Finger and Emerald Green is really gratifying!"

Yao Lao's eyes sparkled with pride. He pointed at the plump bunches of grapes on the vine and said, "These two seedless grapes will be the best raw materials for us to make wine. You must try the fine wine in Pipa Garden later. It will definitely be an unforgettable taste in your life! Of course, Yao Lao asked you to come here today for something more important, which is to sign the supplementary terms of the cooperation agreement!"

As their conversation deepened, the atmosphere in Pipa Garden became more relaxed and pleasant.

Yao Lao's words are full of love for this land and longing for the future.

Su Chenjin responded with a smile, "Dean Chen Fangyu has already told me that this new project is very promising."

After hearing this, Yao Lao's eyes flashed with relief and joy. He said with emotion: "This is a good relationship! We will definitely be able to cooperate happily and create brilliance together!"

As he spoke, he raised the teacup in his hand and clinked it with Su Chenjin's cup, with a sincere smile on his face. Su Chenjin smiled and said, "Very good!"

At this time, the midday sun shines through the gaps between the grape leaves like golden threads and falls on the ground.

The mottled light and shadow seem like a vivid painting carefully painted by a painter of nature, which makes people intoxicated.

The breeze gently blows through the grape vines, bringing waves of fresh fruity aroma.

The fragrance is like magic, instantly dispelling the worries in people's hearts and making them feel peaceful and happy.

In this picturesque vineyard, Su Chenjin and Yao Lao strolled side by side, their laughter and conversation echoing in the vineyard.

The melodious sound was like the sound of nature, making this morning particularly wonderful.

They talked about the future of the vineyard, the details of the collaboration and the wonderful changes that are about to come.

Su Chenjin walked lightly to a lush grape vine, and her eyes were attracted by a bunch of crystal clear grapes.

She stretched out her slender fingers and gently picked one.

The grapes shone with an alluring luster in her hands. She couldn't help but put them into her mouth. The flesh was juicy, sweet but not greasy, with moderate acidity, just like nectar, nourishing her taste buds and leaving her with an endless aftertaste.

After tasting such delicious food, Su Chenjin felt an irrepressible joy in her heart. She couldn't help but pick a few more, tasting them and praising them highly.

Her face was filled with satisfaction and happiness. She was tasting not only grapes but also the sweetness of life.

Yao Lao looked at her satisfied expression and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

He walked over to her and picked a grape to taste as well.

The grapes were just the right amount of sweet and sour, like a gift from nature. The two stood side by side, enjoying this beautiful noontime moment, as if the whole world had stopped.

At this moment, their hearts merged with nature and they felt the gifts of nature and the miracle of life.

The light and shadow in the vineyard are constantly changing. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the grape leaves, forming mottled light and shadow, which appears soft and warm.

The breeze blew gently, and the grape leaves swayed in the wind, as if gently caressing their faces.

Suddenly, the silence was broken by the clear sound of birds singing.

They looked up and saw a beautiful mountain eagle circling over the vineyard. Its feathers shone with a metallic luster in the sunlight, making it look noble and mysterious.

Its sound is clear and loud, like the sound of nature, offering a hymn to this fruitful vineyard.

Su Chenjin and Yao Lao smiled at each other, their hearts filled with emotion.

The sunlight shines through the gauze-like clouds and onto the quiet courtyard.

Yao Lao's figure appears particularly mysterious in the interweaving of light and shadow.

He walked steadily towards the grape trellis, which he had planted himself. Every bunch of grapes contained his hard work and expectations.

He gently picked a few bunches of ripe grapes. The grapes absorbed the essence of the sun and were crystal clear, like sparkling gems.

The sunlight shines on the grapes, reflecting a charming glow.

Yao Lao carefully placed the grapes on the table, his eyes lingering on them.

Next, Yao Lao took out an exquisite ceramic pot from his side and began to brew a pot of special Kung Fu medicinal tea.

His technique is skillful and smooth, and every movement appears so natural and harmonious.

He gently pinched a handful of tea leaves with his fingers, put it into the pot, and then slowly poured in hot water.

The tea leaves slowly expand under the immersion in hot water and dance in the water.

As the tea leaves expand, a faint tea fragrance gradually emanates and fills the entire room.

This scent has a magical power that makes people feel tranquility and peace.

Yao Lao picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The sweet tea aroma danced on the tip of his tongue, and a deep light flashed in his eyes, as if he had found some kind of spiritual comfort in the tea fragrance.

At this moment, Yao Lao seemed to have merged into one with the world, nature, and life.

As the fragrance of tea drifted in the air, Yao Lao's mood became more and more peaceful.

After Yao Lao signed the supplementary contract with Su Chenjin, he talked about his experience of going to the countryside to work as a sent-down youth when he was eighteen years old. At that time, he was full of youthful enthusiasm. He worked hard in the fields during the day and immersed himself in the sea of ​​books under the swaying kerosene lamp at night.

He smiled lightly and said with emotion: "The living conditions are so much better now. I heard that Miss Su has always been among the best students in school. The young are really formidable!"

Su Chenjin responded modestly: "Thank you for the compliment, Master Yao!"

The sunlight shines through the vines of the ancient manor, casting patches of light on the bluestone path, and the air is filled with a faint sweet fragrance.

Yao Lao, the mysterious and enthusiastic owner of the manor, is particularly happy today.

He personally led Su Chenjin through the green courtyard and towards the fragrant restaurant.

As they moved forward, an enticing aroma gradually spread.

They followed the scent, passed through the winding corridors, and came to the restaurant that was filled with fragrance.

The lighting in the restaurant is soft and warm, and the exquisite tableware and neatly arranged silverware on the dining table make everything look so perfect and harmonious.

In the kitchen, the chefs are busy and orderly stir-frying various ingredients.

The flames danced happily at the bottom of the pot, and accompanied by the sound of the spatula colliding, the dishes were completed one by one.

The braised pork is bright red in color, and the meat is tender and juicy; the steamed fish has thin skin, tender meat, and a refreshing aroma; the stir-fried meat is spicy and delicious, leaving a lasting aftertaste.

The aroma of these delicacies is an irresistible temptation that makes people salivate.

Yao Lao smiled, opened the door of the restaurant, and led Su Chenjin to his seat.

They smiled at each other, their eyes sparkling with anticipation and joy.

Afterwards, Yao Lao personally poured Su Chenjin a glass of attractive red wine.

The deep purple-red color looks particularly attractive in the sunlight, like a ruby ​​hidden in a wine bottle.

The wine swirls in the glass, exuding a light fruity aroma and the aroma of oak barrels, which is refreshing.

"Please, try this wine." Yao Lao raised his glass with a smile, his eyes gleaming with pride.

His voice is deep and magnetic, with a kind of magic that is irresistible.

Su Chenjin picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Suddenly, a warm current spread from the tip of the tongue to the whole body, like a clear spring flowing in the heart.

He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Good wine! This wine is mellow and rich, with a long aftertaste. It is definitely a top-notch wine."

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao laughed out loud, his laughter was full of pride and joy.

At this moment, he received the best praise. Yao Lao pointed at the delicacies on the table and said, "Although wine is good, it needs to be accompanied by delicious food. Try these dishes and see how good my kitchen skills are?"

The braised pork on the table is fat but not greasy and melts in your mouth;

The steamed fish is so tender and delicious that it seems to be dancing on the tip of your tongue;

The spicy and tempting stir-fried pork is unforgettable.

Paired with the attractive red wine, it is a feast for the taste buds.

The two of them savored each dish carefully, with satisfaction shining in their eyes.

Yao Lao sat opposite Su Chenjin, quietly observing Su Chenjin's reaction.

His eyes were full of anticipation and pride, as if he was waiting for a perfect ending.

When Su Chenjin put down his chopsticks and sighed with contentment, he knew that he had successfully touched the young man's heart with delicious food and fine wine.

Yao Lao stood up with a smile and raised his glass to Su Chenjin, "Ms. Su, for our friendship!" His voice was loud and magnetic, with a kind of magic that was irresistible.

Su Chenjin smiled gently and walked towards Yao Lao. She raised her glass and clinked it with Yao Lao's. The crisp sound of glass colliding echoed in the silent restaurant.

The two looked at each other and smiled. At this moment, all the noise seemed to stop.

After enjoying this delicious lunch, Su Chenjin sat lazily on the stone bench in the courtyard, enjoying the leisurely afternoon.

She followed Yao Lao's slightly staggering steps and saw him slowly walking towards the lounge.

Su Chenjin smiled slightly and prepared to enjoy a short lunch break.

However, the peaceful afternoon did not last long.

A strange noise broke the silence.
It sounded like a slight metal collision, waking Su Chenjin from his sleep.

She stood up suddenly and walked out of the lounge, only to see a figure hurriedly passing through the courtyard.

Although the man's steps were hurried, they revealed an indescribable weirdness, as if he was avoiding some unspeakable secret.

Su Chenjin became suspicious, and her curiosity was completely aroused, so she decided to follow and find out what was going on.

She followed the man on tiptoe, through winding corridors, around green lawns, and finally came to a remote corner of the manor.

The man stopped in front of an ancient bronze door. He looked around and made sure that no one was following him. Then he carefully took out a rusty key and opened the bronze door.

A low, ancient chanting sound came from behind the door, accompanied by bursts of strange fragrance.

Su Chenjin couldn't help but move closer, trying to spy on the secret behind the door.

Just then, the man suddenly turned around.

Su Chenjin was as agile as a civet cat and instantly blended into the dreamy peach forest around him.

The peach blossoms here are in full bloom, each one looks like a carefully crafted work of art, and the pink petals dance in the breeze like a colorful rain of petals.

The sunlight shines through the sparse clouds and onto the petals, refracting brilliant light, which is breathtakingly beautiful.

However, behind this beautiful scenery lies an unknown crisis.

As soon as Su Chenjin stepped into this fairyland-like peach forest, he keenly noticed that the ground beneath his feet seemed to be trembling slightly, as if the earth's pulse was beating restlessly, foreshadowing the impending danger.

The air around them also became extremely heavy, as if bound by some mysterious force, making people feel suffocated.

Su Chenjin felt an inexplicable panic in her heart, and she realized that she might have accidentally entered an unknown mechanism.

She looked around, trying to find a way out, but the familiar peach trees now became unfamiliar. They were densely arranged together, forming a maze-like passage, making it impossible to tell the direction.

Could this be the legendary Pipa Formation in the peach forest in the Pipa Garden?
Su Chenjin's heart trembled violently as if it was shot by an arrow.

She had heard of this peach blossom forest shrouded in mist. It was an ancient mechanism, a magic array where once one stepped into it, one would fall into endless confusion and danger.

Although her steps were light, her heart was filled with heaviness and tension.

She opened her eyes wide and observed the peach blossom forest intently.

The peach blossoms are like clouds, and each peach tree is like a carefully carved work of art, standing quietly on this mysterious land.

She tried to find patterns in their arrangement and look for the flaws hidden in them.

At the same time, her eyes were fixed on the ground, looking for any possible clues.

Her breathing almost stopped, only her heartbeat was beating rapidly in her ears.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, with only the sound of the wind in the peach blossom forest whispering in my ears.

Just when Su Chenjin was about to lose her patience and prepare to give up, she suddenly discovered the patterns carved on the trunk of the peach tree.

These lines are as thin as hair, like ancient talismans, exuding a heart-pounding mysterious aura.

She had an idea that these lines might be the key to cracking the mechanism in the peach blossom forest.

She stretched out her hand carefully, lightly touching the lines with her fingertips, trying to feel the veins of time.

She closed her eyes and tried to understand the meaning of the lines.

At this moment, a clear sound of a pipa suddenly rang out, like the first ray of sunshine at dawn, piercing the tranquility of the peach blossom forest.

The sound was clear and melodious, like ancient music playing in your ears.

Su Chenjin's heartbeat accelerated instantly. This was the sound of the mechanism being activated, and it was also the beginning of her search for a way out.

She opened her eyes, with a determined light in them. She must find out the secret of this mechanism as soon as possible, otherwise, this peach blossom forest will become her grave.

At this moment, a pleasant cell phone ringtone suddenly rang, like the sound of nature, breaking the silence around.

The ringing sound was like a beacon on the sea, bringing her a glimmer of hope.

She hurriedly took out her cell phone from her handbag and saw that it was Gu Xinliang calling. She felt inexplicably comforted, as if she saw a ray of light in the darkness.

She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calm, even though her heart was still turbulent.

"Director Gu, I'm here at Yao Lao Pipa Garden, and I seem to have entered a trap by mistake. Something is wrong here." Her voice trembled a little, but she tried her best to stay calm.

When Gu Xinliang on the other end of the phone heard Su Chenjin's words, his brows furrowed and alarm bells instantly rang in his heart.

"Is it the Pipa Formation?" His voice was filled with tension and worry.

Su Chenjin heard his own voice trembling at his lips, "Yes!"

At that moment, she seemed to be standing on the edge of a cliff, and if she was not careful she might fall into the abyss.

Gu Xinliang knew that Su Chenjin was in danger at the moment and did not allow him to hesitate at all.

He quickly hung up the phone and quickly made a rescue plan in his mind.

He knew that every second was crucial and Su Chenjin's life safety hung by a thread.

He quickly called Yao Lao's assistant and drove to Pipa Garden as fast as possible.

His car speed reached 180 miles per hour as he rushed from the medical base three kilometers away like a gust of wind.

When Gu Xinliang hurried to the front of the Pipa formation, Yao Lao was still immersed in his afternoon dream and had not been awakened.

Gu Xinliang was extremely anxious. He knew very well that every second of delay meant Su Chenjin's life was passing away silently.

He made a quick decision in his mind. There was no time to wait.

He stood up suddenly and rushed into the peach blossom forest without hesitation.

The peach blossom forest is shrouded in mist, making it seem like a fairyland.

Gu Xinliang was lost in the process, but he did not panic. He remembered the markings on the peach tree, which were the marks he left when he and Yao Lao went on an expedition many years ago.

He stared at the lines closely, trying to find a way out.

At the same time, Su Chenjin, who was trapped in the Pipa formation, was also looking for a way out.

She followed the markings on the peach tree and walked toward the western edge of the stone cliff.

Although her heart was filled with surprise, she still stepped forward firmly.

Gu Xinliang and Su Chenjin, one heading east and the other heading west, were like two parallel lines, each walking in the peach blossom forest.

Their heartbeats echoed in the quiet peach blossom forest.

Finally, in the center of the Pipa formation, the two met unexpectedly.

When Su Chenjin looked up and saw Gu Xinliang, her eyes instantly became moist.

With her lips trembling and covering her mouth, she quickly walked up to him. "Director Gu, why are you here!"

Her voice was full of surprise and emotion.

Gu Xinliang looked at her, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes. "My most proud student is missing, how can I not come to see him?"

He said softly, his tone full of concern and worry.

Su Chenjin smiled with difficulty and asked anxiously: "How do we get out!"

Her eyes were full of desire for life.

Gu Xinliang took a deep breath and tried hard to recall his experience many years ago.

He carefully led Su Chenjin towards the waterside. Gu Xinliang's voice was like a guiding light. He said, "This Pipa formation is an eight-diagram formation made according to the chessboard of heaven and earth. As long as we break the chessboard, we can get out of the peach blossom forest!"

They passed through a depression where the soil was moist and elastic, like a hotbed of nature.

Finally, they came to the chess endgame. The chessboard in front of Gu Xinliang was like a maze, and each chess piece seemed to have a life. They lay there quietly, waiting for the challenger to come.

Gu Xinliang frowned as he found that this chess game was completely different from the version ten years ago.

However, Su Chenjin seemed to have already made up her mind. Her fingers slid lightly across the chessboard, and every movement was full of caution and concentration.

Under her guidance, the chess pieces were given new life. They began to jump and interweave on the chessboard.
Su Chenjin's movements were swift and accurate, and every chess piece landed exactly in the correct position.

Her eyes were like bright stars, focused and bright. All the noise in the world had gone away, leaving only the mysterious chessboard in front of her.

Her eyes jumped around the chessboard, looking for the best place to place the piece. It seemed as if the whole world was concentrated on this small chessboard.

As her fingers trembled slightly, the last chess piece fell into a corner of the chessboard. The pipa formation in the entire peach blossom forest felt this mysterious power and was suddenly released.

At that moment, it seemed as if time stood still, the atmosphere in the entire peach blossom forest became relaxed, and an invisible force was released.

In the peach blossom forest, petals fall like pink snowflakes dancing in the air, beautiful and dreamy.

Each petal tells an ancient and mysterious story, which makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

The fragrance of peach blossoms permeates the air, making people feel relaxed and happy, as if they were in a fairyland.

She looked up at the sky, victory gleaming in her eyes.

However, just when they thought they had succeeded, a white-haired old man suddenly appeared in front of them.

There was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes. He looked at Gu Xinliang and Su Chenjin with a meaningful smile on his face: "Young people, this is not the place you should come to."

Gu Xinliang's heart trembled, he knew that this old man was the guardian of the Pipa Formation - Mr. Kui.

He is an extremely powerful being, guarding this mysterious peach blossom forest and Pipa Formation.

And now, they have actually successfully cracked the Pipa Formation, which is undoubtedly a provocation to Mr. Kui.

However, Gu Xinliang did not back down. He took a deep breath, straightened his chest, and looked into Kui Lao's eyes.
