Chapter 422 Her things
Chapter 422 Her things
What a good thing a kid can come up with.
Shen Zhuoxi didn't take it to heart at all, and was about to leave with Hui Zhi when he glanced over from the corner of his eye and stopped immediately.
Hui Zhi didn't expect that he almost bumped into her. He finally stood up and then asked suspiciously: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
"This is..." Shen Zhuoxi looked at the thing in the child's hand, then looked around, and said quickly: "Where did you get it?"
"I picked it up in the mountains." The child pursed his lips, as if he felt something was wrong, and then retracted his palm and asked tentatively: "Miss, you know this, right?"
"Yes." Shen Zhuoxi looked around again to make sure there was no one there, then said, "Have you shown this to anyone else?"
The child also felt something was wrong. He clenched the things in his hands and shook his head: "No, Miss, you are the first one to see it. Is...is there anything wrong?"
Shen Zhuoxi didn't hesitate and said directly: "How much silver, please give me a price?"
The kid obviously didn't expect Shen Zhuoxi to be so cheerful. He hesitated and said, "Five hundred taels of silver?"
"I'll give you five hundred taels." Shen Zhuoxi did not hesitate at all and winked at Hui Zhi: "Sell this to me?"
Hui Zhi followed her the whole time and did not see what was in the child's hands. He hesitated: "Miss, do you want to take a look again? What good things can such a half-year-old child have?"
"What he is holding in his hand is not medicinal materials." Shen Zhuoxi paused and whispered: "It's something from the Valley of Divine Doctors."
Huizhi was startled, and just as he was about to speak, the child spoke up: "Is this thing worth five hundred taels of silver?"
He offered fifty taels, and the lady didn't even blink. She said five hundred taels. Does that mean it was a good thing?
Shen Zhuoxi nodded and said: "After selling this thing to me, go back quickly. It is very dangerous for children to live in a place like this."
The child's thoughts moved slightly, and there was a hint of lack of confidence in his voice: "Can I regret it?"
"What?" Shen Zhuoxi instantly understood what the child meant and frowned: "You want to raise the price on the ground?"
Hearing this, Hui Zhi also began to hate children: "Miss, I gave you more money because you are a child. Is this too much?"
"No, no." The child was a child after all, so he didn't think much and quickly explained: "I just thought that the lady is so refreshing, this thing should be a good thing."
"If I can send it to the medicine market for auction, I might get more money. My mother and father are both sick, and there are five or six younger brothers and sisters at home who need to support me."
"Five hundred taels is a lot, but it's far from enough for my family's situation. Miss, I need silver, a lot of silver."
The child felt more and more embarrassed as he spoke, and his voice became softer and softer: "There are many people at the auction meeting, and the money..."
Shen Zhuoxi frowned and said, "There will indeed be a lot of people at the auction, and there are also people who will spend a lot of money to buy your things. Haven't you ever thought about that?"
"There are also many bad people in the auction. You are so young and no one can help you. If you are targeted by bad people, it will be a problem whether you can save your life, not to mention your money."
The child's face turned pale and he nervously stirred the things in his hands: "But I..."
"Okay, if you can trust me, come with me." Shen Zhuoxi glanced around and said, "I have something to ask you."
The child intuitively felt that Shen Zhuoxi was not a bad person. After thinking about it, he packed his things and followed Shen Zhuoxi's footsteps.
Shen Zhuoxi took the child back to the second floor of the inn and asked Hui Zhi to go out and guard him so that no one could come in.
After Hui Zhi went out, the child felt a little embarrassed and asked tentatively: "What do you want to ask, Miss?"
"Tell me honestly, where did this thing come from?" Shen Zhuoxi moved toward his clenched fingers.
The child put his hands behind his back and stammered: "I picked it up when I was collecting medicine."
"Is it near the Valley of Divine Doctors?" Shen Zhuoxi continued to ask.
The child didn't know where the Valley of Miracle Doctors was, so he could only whisper: "I don't know what that place is called. People around me say that there are man-eating wolves in that location."
"It is precisely because of this rumor that no one dares to go to the nearby mountains to collect herbs. There will always be good things in places that have not been collected for many years. I want to make money and take the risk."
"These Polygonum multiflorum flowers come from inside. I selected the good ones and sold them at a high price. I wonder if anyone will buy the rest today."
Shen Zhuoxi stared at him intently without speaking.
Next to the Valley of Divine Doctors, there is indeed a place with wolves, called Wolf Valley.
And Wolf Valley is right next to the mountain where she fell off the cliff.
The most important thing is that the thing the child picked up was nothing else, but something that had been hanging on her body - Ling Jueguo!
Ling Jue Guo is the size of a baby's fist, with blood red all over, and a cocoon-like shell on the outside. It only bears a fruit every fifty years, and only the mysterious doctor and witch can touch it.
And what she carried before she fell off the cliff was the last fruit from the Valley of Divine Doctors that was used as a seed.
She was about to choose an auspicious day to plant the Ling Jue Fruit in the holy pool in the valley, but she unexpectedly had an accident while collecting the medicine.
This fruit must have been picked up by the person who pushed her down the cliff, and then fell into the Wolf Valley for unknown reasons...
The child thought that she was silent because she didn't believe what he said, so he quickly said: "Miss, what I told is the truth. If you don't believe it, I can take you there."
"It's just that I scared the wolves last time and I almost didn't come out. If I want to go this time, I must be prepared to deal with the wolves."
"I believe it." Shen Zhuoxi came back to his senses and said to the child: "But, don't mention this experience to others in the future. The fruit in your hand is from the Valley of Divine Medicine."
"Once you are discovered and they issue a fatwa, how can you, a child, afford it?"
The child was startled and covered his mouth in horror.
After a while, he tentatively moved his hand away and whispered: "Miss, why do you know?"
"I've heard of it." Shen Zhuoxi thought, taking out a few banknotes from his money bag and giving some money to the child: "These are more than enough to buy the fruit."
"With the money in hand, you'd better take your whole family away and never come back to this place again."
The child hesitated for a moment, weighing the truth of her words.
After a while, he took the banknotes and money, put the things in his hands on the table, and said: "Thank you, miss, I will take my family out of here!"
After the child opened the door and went out, Huizhi dared to come in.
Seeing Shen Zhuoxi staring blankly at the things on the table, he stepped forward and asked puzzledly: "Miss, what is this for? Why has this servant never seen it before?"
"It's from the Valley of Divine Doctors." Shen Zhuoxi picked up the Ling Jue Guo and looked at it carefully, and said, "To be precise, it's something that only the mysterious doctor witch from the Valley of Divine Doctors has."
"I don't know why it fell into the hands of that child."
When Hui Zhi heard this question, she whispered: "Speaking of the Mysterious Medicine Witch, the supreme existence of the Miracle Medical Valley has not shown up for many years, and she is said to be in seclusion for self-cultivation."
"But there is no one who has been in seclusion for eight or nine years. People who go to seek medical treatment now say that this person is probably dead."
