Chapter 648 Herb Garden

The boat wasn't moving too fast, nor too slow, but it had a unique peculiarity: within a certain speed, it would often pause for a brief moment. The boat slowly approached the three of them, a white sheepskin covering the inside. Wen Yuqing smiled and said, "This old man has been lonely for far too long, yet he's so welcoming to me."

He Wei was a young man at heart, and without thinking, he asked, "Brother Wen, how do you know that people welcome you?"

Wen Yuqing just laughed, then held the arms of the two men, pointed his toes, and flew in the air like a wild goose, and then landed on the boat leisurely. This boat was a real boat, and it was very difficult for three people to sit in it. It was only because Yang An and He Wei had not grown up fully yet, otherwise they might not be able to sit in it.

Just as the three of them sat down, a torrent hit the boat, causing it to sway immediately and almost capsize. Before, when they watched from the shore, they only felt that the river was turbulent. Now that they were in the river, they realized that what Wen Yuqing said was absolutely true. Even people who were familiar with water would be in danger of losing their lives in this river.

Wen Yuqing chuckled softly, then spoke to the two of them.

"Hold on tight, this boat is specially made and very sturdy. Nothing will go wrong, don't worry."

He Wei suddenly thought about how this small boat could sail without someone steering or rowing. He immediately asked, "Brother Wen, this small boat is very strange. It seems to be moving on its own. Doesn't it need us to steer it?"

Wen Yuqing smiled faintly and said, "With rapids, whirlpools, narrow spaces, and winding waterways like these, even the best sailor in the world wouldn't be able to navigate them. You'll soon understand the inner workings of this."

Suddenly, a long howl rang out. Like a dragon's roar, it was sent forth with internal energy. A moment later, the boat, moving upstream, suddenly came to a stop.

Wen Yuqing said, "Be careful." As soon as he finished speaking, the boat suddenly went downstream, as fast as an arrow. Coupled with the whirlpool of the rapids, it shook violently, making people dizzy.

He Wei and Yang An hurriedly followed Wen Yuqing's instructions and held on to both sides of the boat, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

Suddenly, the boat that was running like an arrow seemed to hit a soft rope.

Before the two of them could figure out what was going on, Wen Yuqing's voice rang in their ears, saying, "We've arrived. You can let go now."

Hearing this, He Wei and Yang An almost instinctively loosened their hands, and then they felt a force behind their necks. They knew that it was Wen Yuqing pulling their clothes, but they felt their bodies flying into the air again and then landing on the ground.

He Wei finally had time to look around and take in the surrounding situation. He found that he was standing in a basin surrounded by mountains on all sides. The mountains were not high, but there were many strange grasses and trees growing on them. They were extremely dense and covered the original color of the earth. Many of the plants were very strange in shape, and there were almost no similar ones to those in He Wei's memory. However, He Wei knew that any one of them would be a rare and precious thing in the world if taken out alone.

In addition, Wen Yuqing had mentioned before that this was not only a medicinal garden but also planted many poisonous substances. So although He Wei was itching to try it, he did not dare to touch it casually and just watched quietly.

Yang An was calmer than He Wei. He looked around and saw that the basin was only about a hundred acres in size.

After the river passed through a cave, it suddenly widened several times in this basin, and the current naturally slowed down a lot. Next to the rapids, there was a tall iron frame, with a large iron rope hanging from it, and two other iron ropes were coiled from the water into the iron frame.

Seeing this, He Wei suddenly realized that there were already two iron ropes under the water. The entire boat was controlled by iron pulleys. By pulling the iron ropes, the boat could be moved forward or backward. And at some point, beside Wen Yuqing, a man dressed in a strange black and white outfit had stood. His beard was as white as snow, his hair was as white as silver, but his face was ruddy. The four words "childlike face, white hair" could best describe him.

The old man was tall, half a head taller than Wen Yuqing. But at this moment, his expression was very unpleasant. He fixed his piercing eyes on Wen Yuqing without saying a word.

He Wei thought to himself, "Brother Wen said they were old friends. How could they be ignored like this?"

After a long while, the old man said coldly, "You have violated the rules I set."

Wen Yuqing asked, "If you don't agree, how can I enter the Baicao Garden where you spread the deadly poison?"

The old man in black said, "I just want you to come in alone, why did you bring a stranger with you?"

Yang An and He Wei looked at each other and understood. It turned out that the old man was unhappy because Big Brother Wen brought him and others here, so he spoke so coldly to Wen Yuqing.

Wen Yuqing laughed again when he heard the voice, then shook his head and said, "Don't scare my brother, old man. I came to you to do something for you. If you still act like this, I will turn around and leave."

The old man then laughed and said, "You really haven't changed at all."

Then he shifted his gaze to He Wei and Yang An. At this moment, the two of them followed Wen Yuqing to visit several places where masters were located. Wen Yuqing had spent a lot of effort and favors to make the two of them shine.

If Li Ming has a keen eye for talent and can spot rough diamonds, then Wen Yuqing has already polished the two of them into a prototype. Anyone who sees them will feel that these two people have extraordinary aptitudes and are definitely not ordinary people.

The old man nodded slightly and said, "These two kids are quite good. Who are they to you?"

Wen Yuqing then asked, "Are they my brothers?"

The old man immediately showed a look of surprise. What kind of person was Wen Yuqing? He was a top master and a famous hero in the world. Whether it was his status, martial arts or age, there was a huge gap between him and these two little kids. Moreover, Wen Yuqing had said before that he was entrusted by someone, and the old man just thought that this was the younger generation of Wen Yuqing's friend. Now he was very surprised to hear this answer.

Seeing that the old man didn't speak, Wen Yuqing said softly: "There are reasons for this. You are not concerned about worldly affairs in Baicao Garden, so naturally you don't know. Anyway, I owe them a big favor. Besides, they are also very kind to me and are my sincere brothers."

The two were also very moved when they heard this. They didn't understand it at first, but later they realized what a remarkable person Wen Yuqing was. It really made them happy that such a person was willing to interact with them as equals.

Hearing Yu Qing's answer, the old man didn't ask any more questions, but just said: "In that case, follow me."
