Chapter 99 Old monster?
Ji Heyuan couldn't help but re-examine Ji Yimu. He was indeed the person he liked, but he had underestimated him in the beginning. He didn't expect that he was so cunning. The Zhou family heirloom was in his hands from the beginning, but he kept it secret so strictly that he didn't reveal it even in front of his biological parents. This kind of character is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Ji Heyuan didn't want to give up easily. When he had the best choice, why should he settle for those inferior ones?
So Ji Heyuan has always wanted to have a good talk with Ji Yimu. He wanted to know Ji Yimu's background, and he wanted to know whether Ji Yimu was really so cunning or whether all this was just an accident.
So Ji Heyuan had been trying to contact Ji Yimu, but Ji Yimu acted as if he didn't see anything and just ignored him. It was not until Zhou Mengyao shamelessly found Zhou You that Ji Yimu reluctantly appeared in front of Ji Heyuan with Yan Yue.
"I wonder what's the matter that makes you want to see me so urgently?"
Ji Yimu directly pulled Yan Yue to sit on the sofa, not treating himself as an outsider at all.
"You still know that I am your grandpa."
Ji Heyuan's voice was full of coldness. If he didn't have some questions that he didn't need Ji Yimu to explain, how could he have endured all this?
"If Grandpa is alright, we will leave first. After all, we have a lot of study to do now."
A very careless reason.
“…”
Ji Heyuan was so angry that he almost laughed. When had anyone dared to give him the cold shoulder?
"Where did you get the prescription for that new medicine?"
In order to avoid getting angry to death, Ji Heyuan asked directly.
"Of course it was developed by our R&D team."
They were the ones who originally developed it, so Ji Yimu didn't feel guilty at all.
"So what special herbs did you add?"
"Grandpa, don't you know what trade secrets are? You're trying to find out bit by bit. It would be better if you just asked for the prescription right away. Isn't it a bit too shameless to test me like this?"
Just tell him what herbs he used, and he can find out which one is the spiritual plant? It's really fantastic.
"Is this how you talk to your elders?"
The anger that could not be suppressed was all melted into the roar.
"Grandpa, let's get straight to the point and not waste each other's time."
Ji Yimu didn't want to stay in the Ji family for even a moment.
"Don't you want to know about the Zhou family heirloom?"
Ji Heyuan calmed himself down. Being angry was not good for the current situation.
"Oh? Grandpa, you know that too?"
Zhou family heirloom? How could he not know about it? He seemed very familiar with it.
“You do know.”
Ji Heyuan understood. Sure enough, things were just as he expected. The medicine on the market now was related to the Zhou family's heirloom. So did they really have spiritual plants?
But without spiritual energy, spiritual plants simply cannot grow. Or have they found a place with spiritual energy?
But this shouldn't be the case. If there is a strong spiritual energy, there must be strange phenomena. It is impossible that no news has been heard until now.
"This is all thanks to your good daughter-in-law. If she hadn't been looking around in Grandpa's house like a thief, I wouldn't have noticed it, let alone get to the bottom of it."
Ji Yimu attributed everything to Zhou Mengyao, so even if Ji Heyuan made all the guesses, at most they would think that they might have found something from the Zhou family's treasures, and would not think of anything else.
"So what did you find?"
Ji Heyuan's brain quickly made an analysis, so what did the Zhou family leave behind at that time? It had never been revealed for so many years, but it appeared in Ji Yimu's hands.
Ji Heyuan became more determined in his choice. If Ji Yimu was not a lucky person, he would not have been able to do so for so many years. It was as if he was waiting for him to show up.
"Grandpa already knows, so why are you asking me what I am doing?"
If you want to trick him, you have to see if he will give it to you.
Only let him know what you want him to know, and as for other things that shouldn’t appear, no more of them will be allowed.
"So your medicines are also derived from those prescriptions? What's more, are there any records of how to grow spiritual plants?"
Ji Heyuan thought that the Zhou family planted spiritual plants when they were in the world of immortal cultivation, and guessed that there must be methods of planting spiritual plants in the things left behind, so they were able to add spiritual plants to the medicine, which is easy to explain.
The more Ji Heyuan thought about it, the more he felt that what he thought was right, and even close enough to the truth.
So it was right for me to keep an eye on the Zhou family, but it seemed a little late when I started to keep an eye on them. In addition, those people were so stupid. I had created so many opportunities over the years, but I couldn't find them. I never thought that they would show up after the two families fell out.
"Grandpa seems to know a lot about grandpa's heirlooms, maybe even better than grandpa."
"Of course. My ancestors grew medicine, and now I am still a medicine grower. I am still a loser."
Ji Heyuan's eyes were full of disdain. Anyway, he already knew everything he wanted to know, so he was not afraid to say more.
Next it all depends on each person's means. What's the point of getting good things? What matters is whether you can keep them.
Ji Heyuan has already started to plan.
"So what do you do? Refining elixirs?"
Ji Yimu spoke lightly, it was just nonsense anyway, no matter what he said, it was a pleasant surprise to them.
"How can I possibly do such rough work as refining elixirs?"
After Ji Heyuan finished yelling, he realized that he had leaked something, and his vest seemed to have fallen off.
“…”
Yan Yue and Ji Yimu were shocked at the same time, so they heard something, this man was an old monster.
A living fossil left over from ancient times?
"I, what I mean is that our ancestors of the Ji family are cultivators just like the ancestors of the Zhou family. But now you should know from the Zhou family's inheritance that without spiritual energy, you can't cultivate at all. So even if I have the Ji family's inheritance in my hand, it's just a few pages of waste paper. For us, it's just a thought."
Ji Heyuan tried hard to make up for it and tried to make his words more credible.
Of course Ji Heyuan also believed that no matter what, Ji Yimu and the others would not be able to guess it.
"Then what Grandpa just said means that the Ji family's ancestors were not alchemists. What does that mean?"
Ji Yimu asked.
"Have you heard of the formation?"
Ji Heyuan was planning in his mind what to say to maximize his own interests.
"Is it like what's written in the fantasy novel?"
Yan Yue asked innocently.
His stupid and ignorant look effectively convinced Ji Heyuan.
It turns out that children are stupid and easy to deceive.
"Yes, that's right," Ji Heyuan had naturally read some fantasy novels and was curious, wondering if he could find some unexpected surprises in them, but apparently not.
"Then Grandpa, you can do it too?"
Ji Yimu's eyes were full of curiosity and inquiry.
Ji Heyuan saw it all without missing a single thing, and some plans in his mind began to take shape bit by bit.
"No, although there is a legacy left by our ancestors,"
Ji Yimu sneered in his heart: I understand what you mean, you can do it, and you are very proficient in it.
Since they knew Ji Heyuan's abilities, they had to take targeted precautions.
"It is said that in order to practice those things that have been passed down, one needs to have some cultivation skills, but there is no spiritual energy in this era, so it is impossible to practice."
Ji Heyuan looked at the expressions of the two people carefully.
He was more concerned about Yan Yue's expression. After all, among the two, if anyone was to say who was the dumbest, it would definitely not be Ji Yimu, who was as smart as a fool.
Ji Yimu, who has eight hundred thoughts and eyes: It means that you have no cultivation now.
OK, got it.
"So what does this have to do with the inheritance of the master's family?"
Yan Yue asked curiously.
Ji Heyuan was relieved. See, the breakthrough lies in this person, who even knows how to pass on the message to him.
"The cultivation I just mentioned requires not only spiritual energy, but also medicine refined from spiritual plants to improve it."
Yan Yue: Okay, this is not a secret, they all know it.
"And the Zhou family should have grown some spiritual plants, right?"
This is what Ji Heyuan has always wanted to know and what he wants to get.
"How do you know?"
Yan Yue asked in surprise.
The excited body was barely contained by Ji Yimu because of its huge movements.
Ji Yimu secretly admired her boyfriend's acting skills, which had reached a new level.
“So it really grew?”
Now it was Ji Heyuan's turn to be excited. It was the first time he felt so happy in all these years.
"Brother, did I say something I shouldn't have said?"
Yan Yue worriedly snuggled deeper into Ji Yimu's arms, like a child who had made a mistake.
"It's okay. What's the use of knowing it? No one else can learn it anyway."
Ji Yimu comforted.
Ji Heyuan glanced at Ji Yimu. He was still a little young and had little social experience. He was still a little simplistic. He thought it was a crime to possess a jade. And if he wanted to get it, just because an open and honest way was not possible, it didn't mean that other ways were not possible.
They are probably too well protected and have never seen darkness, so they are so naive.
"Besides, not all of them can be grown. Each one has a corresponding method. I will learn them all by stealing someday."
Ji Yimu tried his best to comfort Yan Yue.
Seeing that people were so serious about it, Ji Heyuan believed it to some extent, so even if he arranged for someone to learn it, he didn't know how long it would take for it to finish learning. The best way was to pass on the tradition.
"Yimu, do you want to practice?"
Ji Heyuan threw out the bait. If possible, Ji Heyuan didn't mind helping Ji Yimu to practice first.
"Practice?"
Surprise, yearning, and disbelief.
"Yes, that's what you think."
"Didn't you say that you can't practice without spiritual energy?"
Ji Yimu regained his sanity.
“But I also said there is another possibility.”
Even if the person you like is influenced by other emotions, you will not really lose yourself.
"But we don't know what kind of spiritual plants we need. We can't plant all the herbs at once. And even if we cultivate the herbs now, they will definitely be different from the ones in the cultivation period, right?" Yan Yue blinked his big eyes, playing a simple, silly and cute role. "That's what's written in the novels."
I thought the stupid thing had become smart, but it turns out it was stupid all along, Ji Heyuan thought.
Anyway, in Ji Heyuan's eyes, Yan Yue had already been labeled as nothing more than a silkworm who depended on Ji Yimu.
"I have my own way of doing this. Seeds are not a problem. I have as many as you want."
"So you want to practice?"
At this moment, Ji Heyuan is like a bewitching monster.
"We will cooperate. I will provide the method of cultivation, and the Zhou family will grow the spiritual plants."
Ji Heyuan had already started planning in his mind, and even saw himself practicing and standing at the top.
Ji Yimu fell into deep thought, and Ji Heyuan did not urge him. He felt that he had given a lot of temptation and was not afraid of making a decision.
"I can't make a decision. I need to go back and ask my grandfather."
Ji Yimu replied seriously,
"If there is nothing to prove it, I don't think my grandfather would believe it, let alone see the sincerity."
Ji Yimu really wanted to know what Ji Heyuan would do.
"Okay, wait for me," Ji Heyuan thought about it and decided to give it a try.
After a while, Ji Heyuan came down from the building.
"Give this to your grandfather. I think he will believe it."
Ji Heyuan was confident that there were no practitioners now. Even if someone could understand it, it would be useless if they could not practice it. Even he himself could only use simple formations now.
Ji Yimu took the thing in his hand, opened it in front of Ji Heyuan, and then closed the box again as if he didn't understand it.
Now Ji Heyuan was sure that Ji Yimu didn’t understand. If he did, he definitely wouldn’t have this expression.
"There are still some seeds here. You can go back and try to see if you can grow them. If you can, then we can continue the discussion."
Ji Heyuan is now certain that Zhou You will definitely accept it if he sees it. So the next step is to see if the Zhou family can grow what they want.
Of course, this period does not prevent you from getting what you want in your own way.
Having it only means you are lucky, but keeping it is your strength.
So it all depends on your ability.
How can I allow others to snore beside my couch?
"Okay, I'll discuss it with Grandpa."
"If there is nothing else, we will leave first."
After finishing the business, Ji Yimu didn't want to stay any longer. The main reason was that he had experienced too many things and the impact on him was too great. They had to go back and review it carefully and discuss countermeasures.
What they face is far more complicated than they imagined.
Ji Yimu didn't wait for Ji Heyuan's answer and directly pulled Yan Yue away.
Ji Heyuan stared at the backs of the two people as they left. They looked really good together.
This Yan Yue is very good, but what can I do? It just isn't...
When Yan Yue and Ji Yimu returned to the car, they saw Ye Chenxu and Xiaotuanzi waiting in the car.
After the car was on the road and Yan Yue made sure that no one was following him, he opened the box given by Ji Heyuan, opened the contents, took a quick look, and threw them to the others.
"Little Dumpling, do you understand this?"
Yan Yue turned and looked at the person sitting in the back seat.
Although they can understand each word individually, they just can't understand it when it's put together.
There is no way to confirm whether it is the formation that Ji Heyuan mentioned.
Ji Yimu also listened attentively, he was also very curious about what Ji Heyuan gave him.
"Did that strange old man give this to you?"
Little Tuanzi read it carefully and asked in shock.
