After covering the pot, simmer over low heat.

As soon as the stove started to smoke, a unique fragrance wafted out of the bronze furnace.

This aroma is different from the bird's nest porridge I had last time.

Last time it had a fresh, clean scent; this time it has a medicinal scent.

The aroma of the medicine is strong, with an indescribable chill that invigorates the spirit.

Aunt Zhao put the things out to dry in her yard, and was stunned when she smelled the odor.

"Ouch, what's that smell...?"

"It even smells invigorating..."

……

Chen Yuanbao stayed by the stove until late at night.

Widow Liu came to visit once, and seeing how focused he was, she didn't disturb him, but stood beside him to pour him tea and water.

As the night wore on, the medicinal broth in the copper stove simmered and bubbled, growing increasingly concentrated.

It eventually solidified into a dark brown paste.

After performing the hand seals, Chen Yuanbao slowly shook the paste into small balls.

One, two, three...

There are 28 in total.

Each one is round and plump, and it also emits a faint medicinal fragrance.

This is the Xumai Powder.

Chen Yuanbao picked up one, examined it carefully, and smiled with satisfaction.

Widow Liu asked in a low voice, "Yuanbao, is it finished yet?"

"It's done."

Chen Yuanbao put twenty-seven pills of the Continuous Pulse Powder into a porcelain bottle, and held the remaining pill in his hand.

After he got up, he walked to the southwest corner of the courtyard and placed the last life-sustaining pill into the dry well.

The pill fell into the well with a "plop".

then……

The dry well suddenly bubbled up with a "glug" sound!

After the bubbles dissipated, the well water turned from blue to gold!

Chen Yuanbao immediately closed his eyes and used his divine sense to probe downwards...

Ten meters below, the black aura surrounding the Spirit Jade Marrow was being gradually dissolved by the golden light!

The wound on the dragon vein is gradually healing!

Chen Yuanbao was so excited he almost jumped up.

Become!

After he stood up, he turned to Widow Liu and said:

"Sister-in-law, the next few days might be quite busy."

"That old bastard Wei Zhaoheng is probably going to make another move."

Widow Liu held the jade pendant from her chest and nodded earnestly:

"Yuanbao, whatever you want to do, your sister-in-law will be with you."

Chen Yuanbao smiled broadly.

"Um."

"Stay with me."

The next morning, something happened in Sanshui Village.

It's not a bad thing, but a "good" thing.

The thirty acres of medicinal herbs on the back hill were destroyed overnight...

I've grown an inch taller!

Moreover, each medicinal herb has a very strong fragrance.

The fragrance, carried by the morning breeze, wafted throughout Sanshui Village and even reached the town.

Around 5 a.m., Old Wang, the first person in the village to get up, opened his door and immediately sensed something different in the air.

"Oh my, what's this smell?"

Old Wang took a deep breath.

A refreshing fragrance wafted into his nose, traveled down his throat, and into his lungs, making him feel refreshed.

Old Wang felt that his old leg pain had subsided.

He strode outside into the yard and exclaimed, "Oh dear, where's that smell coming from?"

Looking up, I saw that the wind was blowing from the back of the mountain.

Old Wang's head buzzed.

Yesterday morning, he went to check on Master Chen's herb garden on the back mountain; the herbs there were already quite miraculous. What happened today...?

He didn't even have time to wash his face before rushing to the back of the mountain.

……

Dozens of other people in the village reacted in the same way as Old Wang.

After smelling the aroma, people went into the mountains one after another.

When we got to the back of the mountain, we saw...

A vibrant green expanse.

Each medicinal herb is a size bigger than yesterday.

The ginseng leaves unfold, shaped like small palms.

The rhizome of angelica sprouts part of itself from the soil, and is as thick as a carrot.

Astragalus, Codonopsis, Ligusticum, and others are all very potent.

The strangest thing is...

There was a very thin layer of white mist on these medicinal herbs.

The white mist appeared and disappeared intermittently, giving it an ethereal appearance.

The villagers were stunned.

"This...this is..."

"Senda! This is Senda!"

"Master Chen is a true immortal master!"

While we were talking, a small van came chugging up the hill behind the mountain.

A person got out of the car.

Jiang Wenyuan.

Jiang Wenyuan wasn't wearing a Zhongshan suit today, but rather a casual outfit. He was still holding that "deep geological exploration instrument."

His face looked terrible.

As soon as he got off the bus, he turned on the device and scanned the medicinal herb field.

On the instrument's screen, the numbers kept changing.

"Beep beep beep beep..."

As Jiang Wenyuan watched the numbers on the screen change, his expression grew increasingly grim.

"Energy peak..." he muttered to himself, "More than three times higher than last time..."

Xiao Zhou asked quietly from the side, "Mr. Jiang, this..."

Jiang Wenyuan did not speak.

He knew it very well.

The spiritual vein beneath Sanshui Village is rapidly recovering.

The power of this spiritual vein is far greater than that of all the known spiritual veins they had previously measured in Tibet, Qinghai, Yunnan and other places.

The spiritual veins are so powerful...

He dared not think about it.

If Wei Zhaoheng absorbs this spiritual vein, his strength will increase significantly.

Given Wei Zhaoheng's personality...

Jiang Wenyuan shivered.

He took out his phone, walked to the side, and made a call to someone.

"Feed...it's me."

"The situation here is much worse than expected."

"The peak energy level is nine times that of Mount Kailash."

"..."

"Yes."

"I see."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Wenyuan took a deep breath, and his expression returned to normal.

After he turned around, he saw Chen Yuanbao walking towards him.

Chen Yuanbao was dressed very casually, in an old shirt and cloth pants, looking just like an ordinary villager.

"Boss Chen," Jiang Wenyuan greeted him with a smile, "this medicinal herb field... is quite nice."

"Thanks to Boss Jiang," Chen Yuanbao said with a smile. "Without your help in repairing the irrigation system, these medicinal herbs would be doing quite well to have grown like this."

Jiang Wenyuan's lips twitched slightly.

The way he said that made it seem like it had nothing to do with him at all.

Jiang Wenyuan said in a low voice, "Boss Chen, shall we... find a place to talk?"

Chen Yuanbao narrowed his eyes.

"What are you going to talk about?"

"Let's talk about...our chairman."

……

Chen Yuanbao led Jiang Wenyuan to his own courtyard.

Widow Liu poured tea for the two of them.

After taking a sip, Jiang Wenyuan slowly said:

"Boss Chen, let me tell you the truth."

"Our chairman will definitely come to Sanshui Village next Wednesday."

"He didn't come here to discuss business with you."

"They're here to steal things."

Chen Yuanbao picked up his teacup and slowly took a sip.

"Boss Jiang, why are you telling me all this?"

Jiang Wenyuan took off his glasses and wiped them with the corner of his clothes.

For the first time, the eyes behind the glasses showed signs of fatigue.

"Boss Chen... I've worked at Huayuan Group for sixteen years."

"In the past sixteen years, I have witnessed our chairman kill thirty-seven people."

"Eight of them were his own men."

Chen Yuanbao raised an eyebrow.

"What Boss Jiang means is..."

"I don't want to be the thirty-eighth," Jiang Wenyuan said with a wry smile. "Boss Chen, in front of the chairman, I'm just a gofer. Whatever he tells me to do, I have to do. But..."

Jiang Wenyuan looked at Chen Yuanbao:

"I want to leave myself a way out."

Chen Yuanbao laughed.

"Boss Jiang, you seem like a very smart person."

"Mr. Chen, you flatter me."

"Alright." Chen Yuanbao put down his teacup and said, "I've got your words in mind."

"after……"

Jiang Wenyuan swallowed hard and asked, "So... what's the next step?"

"If you ever need to find clients in the future, my Chen Yuanbao health center will always reserve a spot for you."

Jiang Wenyuan's eyes lit up.

He got it.

Chen Yuanbao accepted his surrender and gave him a way out...

Regardless of whether Wei Zhaoheng lives or dies in the end, as long as Chen Yuanbao is there, Jiang Wenyuan can survive.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Chen." Jiang Wenyuan bowed deeply.

Chen Yuanbao smiled and waved his hand, saying, "You're too kind."
