Zhou wanted to mobilize his mental strength immediately to trap him, but he couldn't let him reach the entire space.
"Huh? What the hell is this? Why can't I see anything? My little beauty?"
Zhou Xiang ignored his screams, summoned a bottle of well water, and used his mental power to control it to pour into his mouth. After drinking a bottle of well water, he regained a little strength. He drank another bottle before he could sit up. He drank another bottle before his strength was restored.
The things that Yamazaki made using the magical herbs are really amazing. It takes three bottles of well water to unlock the medicinal properties, but the Kong family's medicinal powder can be completely unlocked with just one bottle.
Huh, huh, huh? If I return the powder made from the magical herbs to the Kong family, will that manufacturing genius be able to solve it? Doesn't she like this kind of tune? Great! Thank you, Yamazaki, for bringing me good news.
Zhou fantasized for a while before remembering to give Ling Ran some well water. After Ling Ran finished three bottles of well water, he complained, "What are you thinking about? You're smiling so obscenely."
Zhou wanted to slap him, "How could such a lovely woman smile in such a vulgar way?"
Ling Ran apologized immediately, "Wife, I was wrong. You smiled so beautifully. Tell me, what were you thinking about just now?"
Zhou Xiang chuckled, his eyes narrowed, and he looked a bit wretched. "I thought of using this Yamazaki powder to deal with the Kong family. Don't the Kong family like to test other people's antidotes? When we face each other head-on in the future, I might as well try the Kong family's antidote! It's rude not to reciprocate."
Ling Ran thought of that scene and smiled, "Great! It seems that this Yamazaki also has a talent for medicine. I have no choice but to keep him. He keeps calling you my little beauty. I wanted to kill him, but what a pity."
"Kill him and it will all be over. Wouldn't it be great if he could make medicine for us?"
Ling Ran looked at Yamazaki, who was wrapped in a mist-like mental power and still trying to penetrate him, and asked, "I wonder if he can be tamed?"
"Don't be afraid. If he doesn't obey, just beat him until he obeys. Don't you want to vent your anger? I heard this old man calling me a little beauty, and I got angry too. You can punch him a few more times for me.
After that, we asked him to try the powder he made, but he didn't dare tamper with it. Also, you took out all the pockets on his clothes, even the lining, leaving only a layer of cloth, and didn't let him wear shoes or socks.
Ling Ran nodded repeatedly. Great! He could give that old guy a good beating. "I'll have to interrogate him first. Since he's here, are the R countrymen who have been outside here because of the things on those ships, or because of these magical herbs? Or because of the ancient books in his hands? Where did he get the ancient books?"
These must all be clarified.”
"Yeah! You're right. We should interrogate him first. Don't hold back. At worst, we can spend time learning from scratch. We must find out if he has any connection with the people outside."
Yamazaki, who was trying to penetrate the mist, was stunned by the continuous punches. Hadn't the two little guys been drugged by him? Could there be a third person?
"Oh, stop it, stop it. My old bones can't withstand your heavy punches. What do you want to know? Just ask directly. Stop hitting me."
So lacking in ambition? Don't the R people commit seppuku when captured? Just a few punches?
"Who are you? When did you come in?" Zhou Xiang wanted to penetrate the voice into his mental power.
"My name is Yamazaki Masaru. I was exploring this area on a fishing boat during what you call the early years of the Republic of China when I was sucked in by a whirlpool."
Exploration? Early Republic of China? It's been over eighty years. This old man must be at least a hundred years old. "What's your purpose for coming to Dragon Country?"
Yamazaki was about to keep silent when Ling Ran punched him again.
"Hey, let me tell you, don't you respect the elderly and love the young?"
Ling Ran didn't waste any time talking to him and continued beating him.
"Ouch! I'm all bones. No matter where you hit me, it hurts like hell. I came to Dragon Country just for this formation space. My ancestor once took in a cultivator who was nearing his death, so he knew about this formation space. This ancient book was also left by him."
Since the ancient books on medicine were left by immortal cultivators, then the immortal cultivator that Yamazaki was talking about was not the Taoist priest. Although the Taoist priest's inheritance was intermittent, there was no mention of medicine making and alchemy in it.
"There are still some of your R countrymen hanging around outside. Are they your people?"
"What's your last name?"
"Ping, ten thousand."
Yamazaki was silent. Ling Ran's fist hammered him for a while before he sighed and said, "The Yamazaki family must have declined. In the past, the Yamazaki family was the largest family. The Ping and Wan families were just third-rate families, and were vassal families of the Yamazaki family's rivals. Not many people in our country know about these two families.
Now, everyone in Dragon Country knows about it. I must have risen to a high position. The fact that these two families were able to come here to investigate must have weakened or even destroyed the Yamazaki family. They have learned the secret of my coming to Dragon Country. I am the eldest son and grandson of the Yamazaki family. It must be my departure that aroused the suspicion of my opponents. Alas, I shouldn't have been greedy."
Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran also fell silent. Although this old guy was a little bit mean and cunning, he still had his sense of mission when it came to family issues. However, it had nothing to do with them, right?
"Show me the ancient book."
“I can’t send it out.”
"Just let go." As soon as he finished speaking, the ancient book appeared in Zhou Xiang's hand.
The text on it was obscure and difficult to understand, but Zhou Xiang, who had communicated with the jade slip, was able to guess at some of it.
The ancient book has no cover, and it is full of prescriptions for playing tricks on people. There is not even a method for refining elixirs. It seems that the immortal cultivators have fallen into a very bad state in the later stages.
Zhou Xiang planned to copy the prescriptions from the ancient books as she now had too many magical herbs.
"I'm telling you the truth. We can get out. Moreover, I can control you. Your medicine won't work on me. If you want to die, I can grant your wish. If you want to live, you must make medicine for me. I can make all the tricks and poisons you know, or medicines I specify."
Yamazaki Masaichi was excited when he heard that he could go out. "I want to live, I want to live. I want to know the current situation of the Yamazaki family. If my guess is right, I want revenge."
Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran exchanged a glance. Revenge? Great! Internal strife was the best option.
However, "While you're alive, you're also under my control, just like when you were in the formation space. You can forget about eating the immortal herbs, but you can have food."
"It's great to have food. I haven't eaten in a long, long time. But if you don't give me the magical herbs, how long can I live? Can I still be used by you? Can I take revenge with my own hands?"
This old guy was still too cunning. He actually bargained with her. However, she was really worried that he would die too early.
Zhou Xiang thought about it and threw Yamazaki Zheng to the wooden house. He mobilized his mental power to surround the wooden house, and then withdrew the mental power around him.
Pulling Ling Ran to teleport to the side of the wooden house, he said to Yamazaki Zhengdao inside the wooden house: "See the small open space in front of this house?
Draw and write down the appearance, names, and effects of those magical herbs. I will help you find the magical herbs you often eat and plant them on that small piece of land. You can grow and eat them yourself. If you eat them all before they grow, you will die."
