Chapter 362: Mistaken Capture

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Nan Yan was lucky to have the opportunity to become a disciple of the Divine Physician Hua.

In terms of their actual relationship, it was evident that her connection with the Divine Physician Hua was closer!

She needed to make good use of her grandfather’s identity to strengthen her bond with the Medicine King, Sun Chan.

Although her initial impression of him wasn’t great, she was willing to act obedient and well-behaved in front of him, just to gain his favor, especially because of her grandfather’s influence. As long as she could stay by his side, she would have opportunities.

Ji Yunmiao bit her lip determinedly, ready to take action. She walked up to the door and knocked.

However, after knocking several times, there was still no response. What could be the reason? Was Sun Chan not at home during this time?

Just as Ji Yunmiao was hesitating whether to leave for now and return in the afternoon, several people appeared behind her.

Dong Kai looked at Ji Yunmiao and asked sternly, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Ji Yunmiao, facing these people, felt a bit flustered. However, her experience meeting many prestigious individuals abroad had prepared her well.

She exhibited her former arrogance, raised her chin, and coldly replied, “Who are you people? Shouldn’t you introduce yourselves first? It’s basic courtesy.”

Dong Kai furrowed his brows.

This woman seemed quite extraordinary. Who was she?

This was the residence of Medicine King, Master Sun. Could this person be the disciple of Master Hua?

Previously, when Nan Yan followed Sun Chan to visit their sect, there were not many people who had seen her. The disciples at the sect only knew that one of Master Hua Shifang’s direct disciples had returned, but they were not well-informed about her background.

If she was indeed Master Hua’s disciple, they were in luck!

Dong Kai kept his eyes on Ji Yunmiao, contemplated for a moment, and suddenly raised his hand. “Junior sister, I apologize.”

“Capture her and take her away.”

Ji Yunmiao was bewildered by the sudden turn of events. What was happening? Why were they trying to capture her without a word?

Moreover, it was clear that they had made a mistake!

“I am not your junior sister, I don’t know you people, don’t act recklessly!”

Ji Yunmiao wanted to run, but Dong Kai and the others were skilled martial artists. They were true practitioners of martial arts. She hadn’t taken two steps before she was caught.

To prevent her from screaming and attracting others, Dong Kai struck her with a palm, rendering her unconscious.

“Let’s go, back to our master, take her to see him!”

After enduring nearly half an hour of bumpy travel, the car finally arrived outside the Hundred Herb Garden.

Who could have imagined that the road from the city to the renowned Hundred Herb Garden was nothing but a dirt path!

Full of potholes, uneven and rugged, it was jolting her to the point where she felt nauseous.

She finally understood why Sun Chan was willing to ride a bicycle. At least, cycling wasn’t this bumpy; it allowed you to enjoy the scenery along the way.

Nan Yan turned to look at Sun Chan and saw that the old man’s face had turned pale.

“Second Master, are you okay?”

Sun Chan took a deep breath and waved his hand after a while. “I’m fine… just need to rest.”

The driver on the side looked on the verge of tears. “Miss Nan, I really wasn’t driving fast…”

If they had been driving at a normal speed, they could have reached their destination in about ten minutes. However, due to the road conditions, he had to slow down, and their speed probably hadn’t exceeded thirty kilometers per hour during the whole trip, causing the passengers to experience such discomfort.

Nan Yan comforted him, saying, “It’s not your fault.”

“Just head back in a while, and when we’re ready to leave in the afternoon, we’ll contact you.”

The driver nodded quickly. “Yes, Miss Nan.”

Although Hundred Herb Garden had the word “Garden” in its name, it was actually a whole valley.

The entire valley was planted with various types of medicinal herbs, in such great variety that it left Nan Yan feeling overwhelmed.

She took a closer look at the herbs grown here and found that both their growth and medicinal properties were superior to those found outside, with higher quality.

“It’s a very suitable climate for the growth of medicinal herbs here, isn’t it, Second Master?” Nan Yan asked in a soft voice.

Sun Chan smiled and said, “That’s right. This valley is surrounded on three sides by mountains, which block adverse weather conditions from entering the valley. It’s humid, well-illuminated, and it took me a long time to find this excellent Feng Shui location.”

“Growing medicinal herbs here can achieve twice the results with half the effort! ”

“I see,” Nan Yan nodded. “But, Second Master, the environmental requirements for different medicinal herbs must vary, right?”

“Haha, you claim not to understand herb cultivation, but you seem to know quite a bit, don’t you, Yanyan?” Sun Chan had an approving expression, making Nan Yan feel a bit self-conscious.

Wasn’t this common knowledge?

Even if she didn’t know how to cultivate herbs, she was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. She had researched the preferred environments and geographic locations for these herbs. After all, she had spent a lot of time searching for herbs in the mountains in the past.

Sun Chan laughed and said, “You’ll understand once you enter.”

As the master and disciple walked, they encountered herb cultivators on the way, and they all respectfully greeted Sun Chan. Each time, Sun Chan would casually mention Nan Yan’s identity, and the herb cultivators would respectfully address her as “junior sister.”

It wasn’t until they reached the depths of Hundred Herb Garden that Nan Yan discovered the clues.

This valley was divided into different zones for cultivating medicinal herbs, each simulating the preferred environment of specific herbs. Even climates from snowy mountains to deserts could be replicated.

“Yanyan, do you find this place amazing?” Sun Chan sounded extremely proud.

Nan Yan nodded, “It’s truly amazing.”

Because within this valley, no external advanced technology was used.

As for the principles behind it, she couldn’t figure it out at all.

Seeing Nan Yan’s astonished expression, Sun Chan chuckled a few times before revealing, “The secret lies underground.”

“The desert terrain has a natural heated jade bed below, maintaining a constant temperature of fifty degrees year-round. Meanwhile, the snowy mountain terrain is a natural ice cellar, which was later modified to bring the temperature closer to that of a snowy mountain.”

“Yanyan, I’ll take you to the most mysterious herb garden in Hundred Herb Garden. In the future, you’ll be its owner. But for now, let the guardian spirit beast at the entrance get to know you.”

Nan Yan was surprised, “Guardian spirit beast?”

“Yes, a creature with sentience, very intelligent,” Sun Chan explained. “It can’t speak, but it’s not much different from humans, except it’s much more formidable.”

While speaking, Sun Chan led Nan Yan into a room.

From the outside, it didn’t seem like much, but once they entered, it turned into a passage leading underground.

The interior was well lit, not dim at all.

After walking for about three minutes, they arrived at a stone door.

“There’s a mechanism here, Yanyan. Come over, and I’ll teach you how to open it.”

Nan Yan went over and watched as Sun Chan slowly activated the mechanism of the stone door. Then, the heavy door automatically slid open, revealing another door inside.

As soon as the door opened, a refreshing herbal fragrance wafted out from inside.

“The timing of your visit is quite fortunate. There’s a mature Red Cloud Lingzhi inside. If you can make use of it, feel free to take it.”

As they spoke, they walked further inside.

Nan Yan heard heavy footsteps approaching them, and she looked up in the direction of the sound. Her eyes suddenly widened….
