She had noticed an unusual smell earlier, but she hadn't considered it.
After all, Master Fuchen was just a sculptor; how could he possibly know these medical techniques that only existed in China?
Now that she's experienced this, she suddenly realizes she was wrong.
Master Fuchen was either well-versed in medical principles or had been guided by a highly skilled person.
Ye Mohan took the pills and swallowed them, as did Jian Yixue.
Just as Jian Yixue was about to run out of rope, the two stopped again. When they opened their eyes, they were immediately shocked by what they saw.
Before her stood a small wooden house, surrounded by flowers of various colors. Among them, a rare blue flower caught Jian Yixue's attention.
"As expected!" Jian Yixue immediately understood what had just happened.
Ye Mohan looked down and glanced sideways, "What happened?"
He knew that Jian Yixue must have discovered something, but he was still waiting for Jian Yixue to explain what it was.
Jian Yixue walked over, stood outside the flower enclosure, picked a small blue flower, examined it carefully for a while, and then handed the flower to Ye Mohan.
"This is a phantom orchid, an extremely rare Chinese medicinal herb. Its stems and leaves are excellent medicinal materials, but its fragrance does indeed have a somewhat hallucinogenic effect."
As far as I know, this flower is rarely seen around the world anymore. I never imagined that someone would plant such a large area of it here. It's truly a wonder.
Also, the reason we lost our sense of direction just now was that, even though we felt like we were going uphill, we were actually influenced by the fragrance of flowers and were probably lost.
If this truly is the abode of Master Fuchen, then he felt he was no ordinary person.
Jian Yixue turned her head to look at the wooden house in front of her, seemingly lost in thought.
After listening to Jian Yixue's words, Ye Mohan looked at the extremely small flower in his hand with some surprise. He did not expect that such an extremely beautiful flower could be so terrifying.
If it weren't for Jian Yixue, he would probably still be stuck in the same place.
No wonder there's a legend of "ghost walls" here.
It now appears that this wasn't some kind of maze or a ghost wall, but rather something someone deliberately created to prevent others from discovering the place.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of a wooden door being pushed open, and the two looked in the direction of the sound.
Then they saw an old man with long white hair, dressed in cotton and linen, come out carrying a teapot.
When the old man saw Jian Yixue and the other person, he was clearly stunned for a moment.
Who are you?
Jane recognized the old man at first glance and walked into the garden after hearing his question.
They had already taken the antidote, so the floral scents posed no threat to them.
Jian Yixue stood before the old man, bowing slightly, and said, "Master Fuchen, we have come specifically to see you. There are some things we need your help with..."
"I'm not some kind of Master Fuchen you're talking about. I'm just a decrepit old man over fifty. You can leave now."
The old man interrupted Jian Yixue with great displeasure.
Many people have been looking for him over the years, but this is the first time someone has managed to come to him in person.
But as soon as he heard that someone needed to talk to him about something, he became less inclined to learn more.
He has been in seclusion for many years since she disappeared.
The fact that this group of people came to find him must be related to his previous identity.
But right now he has no interest in it at all.
Ye Mohan frowned, but said nothing.
He knew how important this matter was to Jian Yixue, and he also knew that someone like Master Fuchen must have some temper.
Getting him to come forward would probably be quite difficult.
Let's see how it goes. If it really doesn't work, we'll tie him up and take him back.
Jian Yixue was not surprised by this; she had seen many people with such unique personalities.
After thinking for a moment, Jian Yixue decided to get straight to the point.
Master Fuchen would certainly not have reacted this way upon seeing the jadeite block.
Jian Yixue took out a jade piece from her spatial storage and handed it to him, saying, "Take a look at this first."
Upon hearing this, the old man glanced at Jian Yixue's hand, his expression changed drastically, and he excitedly dropped the teapot in his hand, quickly walking over to take the jade piece.
Jian Yixue did not stop him and allowed Master Fuchen to take it.
Master Fuchen examined the jade piece closely for a while, his excitement growing more and more evident. Suddenly, he looked at Jian Yixue and asked, "Where did you get this?"
“These are my mother’s things,” Jane Yixue answered truthfully.
The things found in my mother's room were probably her belongings.
Master Fuchen was taken aback. He looked closely at Jian Yixue, and the two faces gradually overlapped in his mind. He asked, "How is she doing now?"
In Master Fuchen's opinion, since she already has a daughter, she must have gone into hiding to live a quiet life.
Otherwise, with her abilities, how could she have disappeared without a trace?
She just couldn't send him a message before she disappeared, leaving him searching for so many years without finding anything.
He felt increasingly saddened by the thought of his wasted youth.
“She’s disappeared. To be precise, she was framed and disappeared when I was five years old. I’ve come to you now hoping to find some clues.” Jian Yixue told Master Fuchen what had happened.
Master Fuchen was taken aback upon hearing this.
They've really disappeared!
Suddenly, he frowned. "Come in and talk to me." Then he picked up the teapot from the ground and walked into the house.
Jian Yixue and the other person exchanged a glance and followed.
...
Inside the wooden house.
The two sides sat facing each other.
Master Fuchen frowned and asked, "What exactly happened?"
Jian Yixue then told Master Fuchen everything.
Upon hearing this, Master Fuchen had a bad feeling and became even more annoyed and angry.
Could it really be...?
How could those people treat her like that!
After Jian Yixue finished speaking, she kept staring at Master Fuchen. Noticing the strange look in his expression, she asked, "Did you carve this jade piece? Do you know what it's for?"
Because of her previous experience, she specifically asked the little girl how she connected with that jade pendant.
So she tried the same method, but it didn't work.
But a woman's intuition told her that this piece of jade could not possibly be just a simple piece of jade.
Otherwise, her mother wouldn't have hidden it so secretly.
Master Fuchen held the jade piece in his hand, feeling it as he recalled the past. "When I was young, I met your mother at the Dongfang family's auction house. At that time, there was a fine piece of raw jade up for auction, and the news was already known to everyone before the auction even started."
I was no exception. As someone who enjoys carving jade, I rushed over as soon as I heard the news. Unfortunately, your mother secretly bought the last piece of raw jade.
The reason it's described as "secret" is because the Dongfang family didn't know she was the one who took the photos.
