The fragrance of medicine fills the countryside in 1990

Chapter 76 Another Key to the Treasure, the Hellfire from the Fire

Luo Shen's eyes burned with an indomitable fire. He said in a low but firm voice: "This is the secret ancient temple that the old priest mentioned. The key to the treasure must be hidden in this mysterious place."

His voice echoed in the quiet air, as if an irresistible force was pushing his soul.

Kang Duanchenxiang frowned slightly when she heard this, and her voice was filled with confusion and puzzlement: "Why is there a second key?"

Her words lingered in the air like a wisp of smoke in the fog, inspiring deep thought.

Luo Shen turned his head and looked at her deeply, with a deep light flashing in his eyes.

He spoke slowly, his voice like an ancient bell, echoing in everyone's heart: "This may be the foresight of the Tang King. He may have predicted that only when two keys appear at the same time can the door to the treasure be opened."

After hearing this, Kang Duanchenxiang deliberately pretended to be dissatisfied and muttered, "What a trouble!"

There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone, like a little deer acting coquettishly, which made people feel pity for her.

Luo Shen looked at her, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth. That smile was like a spring breeze, warm and gentle.

He said softly: "Don't worry, as long as we find the second key and get the treasure, we will leave here."

His voice was full of tenderness and firmness, like a guardian's oath, which made people feel extremely reassured.

At the deepest part of the secret realm of medicinal fragrance, they stopped and were deeply attracted by the magnificent scenery before them.

Every place here is filled with a mysterious atmosphere, as if it is nature's most private treasure.

The breeze blew gently, and the colorful flowers and plants swayed with it, as if whispering ancient secrets.

The subtle fragrance emitted by these flowers and plants is like nectar that nourishes the heart and makes people unconsciously intoxicated.

In this fragrance, they felt an indescribable magic and were gradually surrounded by this wonderful atmosphere, their bodies and minds were relaxed like never before.

They were in a dream, and every cell in their body was greedily absorbing the intoxicating breath.

Kang Duanchenxiang's gaze finally fixed on an ancient growing tree in the distance.

The tree stands tall and majestic, with a strong and sturdy trunk, like a guardian that has experienced many vicissitudes of life.

Its lush branches and leaves are full of green, bringing endless vitality and vigor to this land.

The sunlight shines through the layers of branches and leaves, forming mottled light and shadows, giving people a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.

Kang Duanchenxiang and Luo Shen slowly approached the ancient tree, and every step seemed to cross the boundaries of time and space.

They gently touched the rough bark with their hands, feeling the traces of time and the pulse of life.

At this moment, I became one with the tree, feeling together the miracle of life and the vastness of the universe.

The surrounding scenery is also intoxicated by this ancient tree. The fragrance of flowers and plants becomes richer, and the breeze seems to become softer.

Kang Duan Chenxiang and Luo Shen stood quietly under the tree, allowing their minds to feel unprecedented tranquility and purification in this wonderful atmosphere.

As night falls, everything becomes silent.

Only the breeze gently blows through the treetops, bringing a hint of coolness.

Kang Duan Chenxiang stood alone under the ancient tree, her figure looking soft and mysterious in the moonlight.

She stretched out her slender fingers and gently stroked the tree trunk, as if looking for some ancient and mysterious code.

She slid her fingers along the trunk, feeling the rough and warm texture, as if she was having a silent conversation with the tree.

She closed her eyes and listened attentively. She seemed to hear the faint yet strong pulse coming from the tree trunk. It was the tree's breathing and its heartbeat.

There was a mysterious and solemn expression on Kang Duanchenxiang's face, and there was a firm light in her eyes.

She was trying to communicate with the tree about some deep and ancient power. That power came from ancient times, transcended the boundaries of time and space, and resonated wonderfully with her.

As the night deepened, Luo Shen was in this strange land, his heart was full of alertness.

His eyes were as sharp as torches, scanning the surroundings sharply, like a cheetah staring at its prey in the dark night.

Every inch of land and every leaf cannot escape his sharp eyes.

Luo Shen's back was tense, like a bow about to be released, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

This land is full of mystery and unknown, and the air is filled with an indescribable sense of danger.

Luo Shen took a deep breath and at this moment smelled the danger hidden in the darkness.

Here, any negligence may become a fatal flaw.

Luo Shen tightly grasped the weapon in his hand, which was his only support.

The night was dim, the moon was high in the sky, and only the chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves broke the silence.

Deep in this dark forest, two figures were anxiously searching for any possible clues.

They are Kang Duanchenxiang and her companions, descendants of the Chiyou tribe. In order to find the legendary secret treasure, they have been searching in this forest for several hours.

Just as the two were concentrating on finding the key, suddenly a strange wave came from the tree trunk.

Kang Duanchenxiang immediately opened her eyes wide, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Her figure looks particularly agile.

She turned to Luo Shen, her eyes gleaming with determination, as if she had seen the dawn of victory.

She pointed forward, her voice full of excitement and anticipation: "Look, we are getting closer to the truth!"

Luo Shen stared at Kang Duan Chenxiang, his eyes revealing deep trust and admiration.

He smiled slightly, nodded, and followed Kang Duanchenxiang.

Kang Duan Chenxiang felt that the tree in front of him contained powerful energy. It was like an ancient sleeping god, waiting to be awakened.

She stared at the tree trunk in front of her, as if she could see the mystery inside through the rough bark.

She reached out and gently stroked the trunk, feeling the faint vibrations emanating from within.

There is a secret hidden in this tree, and that secret is the key to the hidden treasure.

She turned to look at her companions, with a determined light in her eyes: "We found it!"

Kang Duan Chenxiang and Luo Shen walked around the tangled tree roots, which were like an ancient maze, and each one seemed to be trying to stop their progress.

But they did not retreat. Instead, they climbed firmly to the top of the tree trunk, taking every step carefully, as if they were walking on a tightrope.

As they moved deeper into the branches and leaves of the tree canopy, the world around them seemed to become more mysterious and silent.

Only the rustling of leaves in the breeze and the low calls of unknown animals in the distance made one's heart beat faster.

They explored the darkness with the beams of their flashlights, looking for any possible clues and traces.

Their breathing became slow, for fear of missing any sound, any clue.

Kang Duanchenxiang's eyes were firm and sharp, staring intently at the depths of the tree trunk like a hawk staring at its prey.

The key hidden deep in the tree trunk is the only hope to solve the mystery.

The light in both of their eyes revealed deep wonder and awe.

The secret of this tree is far more complicated than they imagined. It is not just a tree, but more like an ancient and mysterious soul, quietly guarding this land.

Kang Duanchenxiang surrounded the tree trunk and gently touched the rough surface with his hand, feeling the endless wisdom and power contained in it.

This feeling made her both excited and scared, and she had to explore carefully for fear of touching something she shouldn't touch.

As time passed, Kang Duanchenxiang's patience seemed to be running out.

Just when she was about to give up, Kang Duanchenxiang suddenly stopped, her eyes fixed on a part of the tree trunk.

There, there is a mysterious pattern hidden deep within.

This pattern is ancient and mysterious, telling a forgotten history.

Kang Duanchenxiang's heart beat faster, she could almost feel the pattern calling her.

She took a deep breath, then slowly reached out her hand and gently touched the pattern.

She slid her fingers over the pattern and seemed to feel a subtle vibration.

She closed her eyes and tried to sense the mystery.

Suddenly, this long-silent mysterious pattern lit up, awakened by some mysterious power, emitting a strong light. An irresistible force gushed out from the pattern, like a blazing pillar of fire, rushing straight into the sky, shaking the entire space.

Kang Duan Chenxiang and Luo Shen, two experienced members of the Chiyou tribe, stood in front of the pattern. Their originally firm steps were unable to withstand the impact of the energy at this moment.

They were shocked and took several steps back, feeling that the force was like a gust of wind, sweeping through their bodies and consciousness, almost swallowing them up.

However, just when they were about to be unable to resist, a strange light appeared before their eyes.

It was an illusion of a key, very similar to the first key they had found in their previous adventure, but it exuded a more mysterious and powerful power.

It was suspended in the air, emitting a faint light. Kang Duan Chenxiang and Luo Shen widened their eyes. They knew that the phantom of this key was definitely not without purpose.

Its appearance will inevitably mean that their next adventure will be more difficult and more dangerous.

A dazzling light suddenly appeared on the tree trunk, like the scorching sun in the daytime, illuminating the entire forest.

In the light, a fiery red seed floated out. It was like a meteor, passing through the tunnel of time and space and falling steadily into Kang Duan Chenxiang's hands.

The fire was jumping in Kang Duanchenxiang's hand, emitting a blazing light, like a burning heart, reflecting Kang Duanchenxiang's tired but determined face.

That light was full of vitality and hope, and could illuminate all darkness. The light of the fire illuminated everything around it, and also illuminated the hope in the hearts of the two people.

This was a ceremony full of unknowns and dangers. Kang Duanchenxiang was filled with anticipation, but also with deep worry. The fire trembled slightly in her hand, containing endless power, waiting for the moment to be awakened.

Suddenly, a wild and blazing hellfire burst out from the fire, like an enraged fire dragon, raising its head and glaring at everything around it.

The color of the flame was deep red like blood, hot and wild, like the devil's eye from purgatory, ready to devour everything around it.

Kang Duanchenxiang felt the hot breath and her heart trembled slightly, but she did not retreat.

She knew very well that this was a test from the Chiyou tribe and also a challenge to her destiny.

So she quickly mobilized the strength in her body and tried to control the wild flaming horse.

Her hands danced faster and faster, as if playing a passionate piece of music, and every note was full of power and determination.

As time went on, the wild flame seemed to sense her determination and strength, and gradually became docile and obedient.

It danced quietly around her like a tamed wild animal, performing this dance of power with her.

However, just when Kang Duan Chenxiang thought he had successfully tamed the fire, a barrier as smooth as a mirror suddenly appeared in front of him.

This mirror reflects her inner destiny, making it impossible for her to avoid it.

She stared at the mirror nervously, trying to find clues to the falling gears of her destiny.

The images in the mirror surge like waves, and each image is like a meticulous painting, silently telling ancient and mysterious stories.

Her heartbeat echoed in the quiet air, seeming to resonate with the ever-changing scene.

She clearly saw the lost Chiyou family's guardian scepter, which had once been a symbol of her identity and the source of her power. However, now, it lay quietly in that hiding place like a body without a soul, becoming a little-known secret.

An inexplicable sadness surged in her heart, but more of it was determination and resolve.

Kang Duanchenxiang was eager to get more clues about the scepter. She stared deeply into the mirror, trying to find more secrets from it.

However, at this moment, the fire in front of him suddenly went out, and the entire space fell into darkness.

She felt a little uneasy, but more determined and courageous.

When she opened her eyes again, she found that the mirror that once reflected her fate had turned into a mirror-like lake.

The lake surface sparkled, reflecting her determined face. She took a deep breath,

Kang Duanchenxiang realized that all this was just a passing cloud. She grabbed Luo Shen's hand and said, "It's all over!"

Kang Duan Chenxiang and Luo Shen could not have predicted that the other key to the secret treasure had long disappeared in the long river of history and became an unattainable legend.

During the prosperous Tang Dynasty a thousand years ago, the Emperor of Tang ordered the destruction of this key, leaving the legendary treasure like a flower in a mirror or a moon in the water, hanging forever in the hearts of the people, yet forever out of reach.

However, when Su Chenjin traveled through time and space, he came across a mysterious space with the fragrance of medicine.

In this space, she accidentally discovered the first key to the Tang King's treasure, and this discovery filled her heart with excitement and anticipation.

She knew very well that without the help of the second key, the treasure would be like the stars in the sky, dazzling but forever out of reach.

So, she buried this expectation and curiosity deep in her heart and stopped worrying about it too much.

Sometimes, fate is like this, allowing people to feel the true meaning of life in endless pursuit.

Just as she was gradually letting go of this obsession, she discovered a shocking secret.

Those medical books treasured by King Tang followed Su Chenjin to the 90s like loyal guardians at the moment she traveled through time. They were like her soul mate, accompanying her through countless days and nights.

Now these medical classics lie quietly in the medicinal fragrance space, and only Su Chenjin can discover them.

At this time, Su Chenjin was walking through the teaching building holding her textbook. She didn't know what Kang Duanchenxiang and Luo Shen were planning.

The night fell slowly like a thick piece of black velvet, shrouding the entire city in a mysterious and deep darkness.

The city’s neon lights began to twinkle like stars, embellishing this busy metropolis and making it look like a dream, as if it were a city that never sleeps.

At exactly seven o'clock, Su Chenjin appeared lightly at the school gate. Her steps were brisk, and every step was filled with endless joy and expectation.

Her smile was bright, like a ray of warm sunshine, illuminating everything around her.

Today, her experiment has made a breakthrough. The joy that wells up from the bottom of her heart makes her full of infinite longing and expectation for the future.

There was a gleam of excitement in her eyes, as if she had seen the dazzling treasure in the palace of science.

She couldn't help but hum a little tune, the melody was light and melodious, which complemented her mood perfectly.

At this moment, the phone rang. It was Chen Fangyu calling, "Xiao Jin, can you come over tonight and have a chat with me?"

Su Chenjin agreed generously, "Okay, Dean Chen, I'll be right there!"

Chen Fangyu smiled on the other end of the phone, "Director Gu will be here soon. I made some scallion meat patties. You two can try some later!"

Su Chenjin was stunned and agreed.

She was a little surprised to receive Chen Fangyu's invitation at this time of the evening.

Chen Fangyu is a well-known iron lady in the business world. She is always immersed in her career. Her life is always filled with work and she rarely has time to chat with others.

However, today, she actually took the initiative to invite Su Chenjin to chat, which made Su Chenjin feel both surprised and delighted.

With excitement and a bouquet of flowers in hand, Su Chenjin set out for Chen Fangyu's apartment.

Walking into the spacious and bright living room, the neon lights outside the window shone onto their faces through the half-open curtains, adding a touch of mystery and romance to this warm scene.

Chen Fangyu warmly welcomed Su Chenjin and invited her to taste the scallion meat pie she made herself.

"Oh, I made scallion meat patties with fresh minced meat tonight. This is a delicacy from my hometown. I have to think of you, Xiaojin, no matter what I say. Are you tired today? Come and have a small pancake and take a rest!" Chen Fangyu greeted warmly.

Su Chenjin took the meat pie gratefully, tasted the delicious dish, and reported on his academic progress.

She excitedly told Chen Fangyu that she had successfully hatched a chick while doing an animal experiment today.

"There is only one incubator, and my chick jumped out of the eggshell while I was having dinner!" Su Chenjin showed the photo of the hatched chick with a smile on his face.

Chen Fangyu looked at the photo and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She handed Su Chenjin a glass of juice and they continued chatting.

They talked about everything from the profoundness of academics to the trivialities of life, from distant ideals to cruel reality.

There was a gleam of wisdom in Chen Fangyu's eyes, and every one of her opinions was like a shining star, which made Su Chenjin fall in love with her and benefited greatly from her.

"President Chen, I want to report something. I came back from Yao Lao this afternoon and sorted out all the contracts with South China Pharmaceutical! Yao Lao gave us a 2% discount!"

"Oh?" Chen Fangyu raised her eyebrows and showed a satisfied smile on her face, "I know about this. Our cooperation with Yao Lao is not limited to this!"

Su Chenjin felt relieved when he saw Chen Fangyu's reaction.

She knew that Dean Chen had always attached great importance to the cooperation with Yao Lao, and being able to successfully obtain concessions this time was undoubtedly a huge victory.

However, Chen Fangyu was not satisfied with this. She paused, a deep light flashed in her eyes, and said, "I have communicated with Professor Fang over the phone. Director Gu can handle this matter!"

Su Chenjin was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Director Gu has already communicated with Professor Fang. He also attaches great importance to this cooperation and said that he will fully support our work."

"Very good." Chen Fangyu nodded with a satisfied smile on her face. "This cooperation with South China Pharmaceutical and Professor Fang is not just a simple contract, but also a brand new beginning. We should take this opportunity to further enhance the comprehensive strength of the hospital and provide patients with better medical services."

Just when the two were chatting happily, Gu Xinliang also quietly came to the apartment.

He did not walk far, but smoked a cigarette downstairs of the apartment building, waiting for the opportunity to meet Chen Fangyu and Su Chenjin.

After talking with Professor Fang about the collaboration, he finally found the opportunity and came to find them.

He knocked gently on the door of the apartment, and Chen Fangyu invited him in with a smile.

Gu Xinliang's appearance did not interrupt the conversation between Chen Fangyu and Su Chenjin, but instead added some vitality to the warm atmosphere.

Seeing this, Su Chenjin decided to prepare some delicious crystal cakes for the three of them.

At this moment, the aroma of scallion meat pie wafted into Gu Xinliang's nose. The unique taste stimulated Gu Xinliang's taste buds, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Crystal cake with scallion meat pie, the taste is dangerously good!"

Chen Fangyu sat opposite him, her bright eyes sparkling with admiration.

Chen Fangyu leaned against the kitchen door, she gave a thumbs up and praised Su Chenjin enthusiastically, "I like this the best, thank you for your hard work, Xiaojin!" Her voice was gentle and powerful, like a clear spring flowing on dry land.

Gu Xinliang gently took off his coat and carefully hung it on the hanger beside him. Then he turned around and nodded with a smile towards Su Chenjin in the kitchen.

His eyes were full of appreciation and gratitude.

Su Chenjin in the kitchen was concentrating on making delicious food. Her technique was skillful and agile, and every movement was so smooth and elegant.

Her eyes were focused and determined, as if she was operating a delicate and complex cooking project. Every step was just right.

After a while, a plate of crystal clear cake appeared on the coffee table under her skillful hands.

This crystal cake is like an exquisite gem, exuding a faint fragrance, making people want to take a bite.

Chen Fangyu and Gu Xinliang were both attracted by this tempting dessert. They tasted it carefully and immediately praised it.

The cool texture and sweet taste of the crystal cake danced on their taste buds, making them unable to resist its charm.

Gu Xinliang couldn't let it go. He tasted the crystal cake bite after bite, as if he was savoring the beauty of life.

Gu Xinliang leaned forward slightly, trying to put the weight of the whole world on this sentence: "Whoever marries Xiaojin will be blessed!" This sentence was like a flash of lightning, instantly breaking the quiet air and causing an uproar.

Chen Fangyu was stunned when she heard this. She raised her head and her eyes met Gu Xinliang's. Then she smiled playfully and said casually, "Of course!"

Su Chenjin instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, but her face turned slightly red at this moment.

Her heartbeat quickened, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

She secretly raised her head, glanced at Gu Xinliang, then quickly lowered her head, an inexplicable emotion surging in her heart.
