I don't know who to pin it on.""I was already worried they would come after my disciples, and with Gu Bulao also in the Sea-Mountain Realm, considering his bad temper, there's a possibility he could...Listening to the conversation between the old man and Mu Ming, Jiang Yun's face remained expressionless, but a tempest raged within his heart.
Heaven and earth! He could guess that this medicine garden should be a place chosen by the ancient gun at random, filled with the power of wood.
However, he never expected that the owner of this medicine garden, this unknown wood family, would actually be related to Tianwai Tian! Although there might be several Tianwai Tians hidden within the four realms, the elder's rebuke towards Mu Ming made Jiang Yun almost certain that the Tianwai Tian mentioned by Mu Ming was exactly the one he wanted to go to, the place where his parents were imprisoned! "Grandpa…" Mu Ming's face showed a look of grievance, but he obviously knew he had said something he shouldn't have. He lowered his head now, seeming a bit at a loss.
"Ahem!"
The old man suddenly coughed twice and resumed his kind demeanor, "My child, grandpa hasn't had a drink in a long time and is craving one."
"Today, why not take this opportunity and have him get us some drinks Grandpa and this young man, let's have a drink together!"
This sentence made both Ginger Cloud and Wood Destiny's faces reveal a hint of astonishment.
Mu Ming remembered that ever since he and his grandfather came to this medicine garden, his grandfather had never touched alcohol again.
I didn't expect Grandpa to take the initiative to let me go get him some wine now.
However, he thought Grandpa must have been truly happy.
After all, this was the first time he had saved someone! And Jiang Yun also found it strange. Three months ago, this old man had personally told him to leave as soon as possible and not get involved in his affairs.
But now that he's leaving, he wants me to stay.
However, Gingercloud still really wanted to stay.
Because he wanted to repay Mu Ming's life-saving grace and also hoped to learn more about the Heavenly Beyond from him,
Mu Ming excitedly nodded and said, "Okay, Grandpa, I'll go now."
The elder smiled and said, "Be careful on your way, and come back early!"
Mu Ming rushed toward Jiang Yun and said, "Big brother, wait for me!"
Ginger could only smile and nod.
Just then, Mu Ming’s body shot into the air and flew straight south. In a blink of an eye, he vanished without a trace.
Jiang Yun and the elder simultaneously withdrew their gazes. The elder fixed his gaze on Jiang Yun, and after a moment, said, "My name is Mu Zhengjun!"
Ginger cloud cupped his fists and said, "I've met Old Man Mu."
"Mu Zhengjun continued, "Although I can't say your real name, at least tell me a pseudonym so I can address you conveniently!"
Ginger thought for a moment and said, "Just call me Dongfang!"
"Great!"
Mu Zhengjun said: "Eastern friend, are you a little surprised why I went back on my word and let you stay"
Jiang Yun pondered for a moment and said, "My father-in-law must want to tell me about the brothers who share the same destiny!"
"You know" Mu Zhengjun said, slightly startled.
Ginger hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Mu, are you ill"
Mu Zhengjun's face changed drastically, but his eyes were filled with a surge of light as he stared intently at Jiang Yun and said, "You figured it out"
"To be frank, Father-in-law, I also have some knowledge of medicine. I just used my spiritual sense to briefly examine Mu Ming's body, and I found that there are only two powers within him: the power of earth and the power of wood."
"Among them, the power of wood is extremely strong."
"It's just..." Jiang Yun looked at Mu Zhengjun and said, "This power of wood doesn't seem to be absorbed by Mu Ming himself. It seems like someone forcibly instilled it into him."
"The purpose is to make him come alive!"
"Because I didn't have much time, this is all I could see, and I don't know if it's right or wrong. If I offended you in any way, please forgive me."
Ginger Yun's words, Mu Zhengjun did not respond. After a moment of silence, he suddenly reached out and pointed to the herbs on the ground: "Little friend, do you recognize these herbs"
Ginger Cloud understood that the other party was testing him. He stretched out his hand, and from among the dozen or so medicinal herbs, one flew directly to him.
Silver-flower honeysuckle, prefers cold temperatures. It clears the liver, relieves stagnation and activates blood circulation to remove blood stasis.
Then, Ginger Cloud pointed to another medicinal herb and said: "Undying Grass, pungent and sweet, slightly warm, non-toxic..." In this way, Ginger Cloud successively named and described the properties of these dozen or so herbs in a simple manner.
Although the world of Si Jing Zang and Shan Hai Jie are not the same, the herbs that grow within them share many similarities.
Especially when Jiang Wanli was identifying medicinal herbs with Jiāng Yún before, it seemed that there were herbs from the Four Realms hidden among them. Therefore, for Jiāng Yún to identify them now, there wasn't the slightest difficulty.
After hearing what Gingercloud had said, Mu Zhengjun suddenly reached out and pointed to the stone bench behind him: "Young Master Dongfang, let's sit down and talk!"
It is not difficult to see that Mu Zhengjun's attitude towards Jiang Yun has clearly changed.
Jiang Yunyi sat down and said, "Old Master Mu, what is going on with Brother Mu"
He owes me his life. If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know and I will do everything in my power.
Ginger Cloud has always been loyal and grateful. This Mu Ming truly saved his life, and seeing him also reminded Ginger Cloud of himself when he was a child.
Therefore, he sincerely hoped he could help the unfortunate.
Mu Zhengjun fell silent for a long time before finally speaking, "You're right."
When Ming'er was young, he snuck out to play one time but encountered an accident and nearly died.
I don't know if you're familiar with my family, but I think it's clear that my family is skilled in traditional Chinese medicine and alchemy.
"But unfortunately, at the time, Ming'er’s condition left our entire Mu family helpless. We were utterly out of options. Ultimately, in desperation, to save him, we had him take something."
"The wood power within Ming'er comes from this, keeping him alive."
"If Mo Wu's Wood power was too exuberant, his body wouldn't be able to withstand it, so I had him practice Earth-based techniques to balance his Wood power with Earth power."
He could sit tirelessly within the earth, continuously channeling his wood power into you for over three months. This was because his wood power was extremely abundant.
Jiang Yun wasn't surprised that something could provide the power of wood, but he didn't expect that it could even allow someone on the verge of death to continue living! However, Jiang Yun also knew that there were many strange and unusual things in this world. Just because he hadn't heard of them didn't mean they didn't exist.
And such a thing would inevitably be extremely precious, so Mu Zheng did not say the name of such a thing.
Jiang Yun finally understood the ins and outs of the matter. Then he asked, "Since that's the case, Brother Mu should be fine now, right"
"No!"
Mu Zhengjun shook his head and said, "Ming'er's situation is actually very similar to yours six months ago."
"If we didn't discover you, or pay you any mind, you would eventually just turn into a lump of clay."
"Ming'er appears normal, but because his wood power is too strong, if he continues to cultivate, he will eventually turn into a completely wooden being."
"But if he doesn't cultivate himself, he won't live long either."
Gingercloud, being a pharmacist, could understand the strange situation with Mu Ming even after just a little thought.
"Master Mu, you've suddenly changed your mind. From hoping I'd leave quickly to asking me to stay, it seems you see hope in me that can help Mu Ming."
"So, as I said before, if there's anything I can do to help, just tell me. I won't refuse."
Mu Zhengjun, however, hesitated and said: "You are very clever. I did see hope in you and thought of a way that might save your child."
"However, that hope is truly too faint."
"And... my method, for you, is both fortune and tribulation."
Ginger frowned, puzzled, and asked, "Master Mu, what do you mean"
"I want you to take the same thing that he took."
If you can't refine that thing, then you'll become like Ming'er.
But if you can refine it, then your path to becoming an emperor will have one more way, the Way of Wood. cause of this!As the Heavenly Inspector's voice fell, there was no sound in the Mirror World until, after a long time, a soft sigh echoed out.Just a sigh, yet it caused the twelve purple-robed celest...
