Chapter 1332: The Fat Man's Fury
The maid's words moved Ye Qing's heart, so it seems that Shen Qingyi's illness can still be cured. It's just that Shen Tianjun couldn't gather the medicines needed, so he couldn't cure Shen Qingyi's illness.
In the past, Ye Qing would definitely be worried; if even Shen Tianjun couldn't gather these medicines, then he had even less chance of doing so. But now, it's different because Medicine King Mountain is about to open. Shen Tianjun also mentioned that all the medicines in the world can be found on Medicine King Mountain. So wouldn't the medicine to cure Shen Qingyi also be found on Medicine King Mountain?
Hope suddenly ignited in Ye Qing's heart, and he looked at Shen Qingyi's room, secretly vowing to himself. On this trip to Medicine King Mountain, no matter what, he must find these three medicines and concoct a life-saving cure for Shen Qingyi. This is the only thing he can do for Shen Qingyi.
Seeing that it was almost time, Ye Qing didn't linger there. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he quietly slipped out of Shen Qingyi's courtyard and returned to his place of residence. He waited until lunchtime, when the people from the Shen Family came to invite Ye Qing for a meal.
It seemed that Shen Tianjun had already arranged everything and ate lunch with Ye Qing. In the afternoon, Ye Qing didn't linger at the Shen Family Manor but directly bid farewell to Shen Tianjun, as he needed to return to Shenchuan City and make arrangements for the trip to Medicine King Mountain.
Although Old Wang Ba mentioned that Medicine King Mountain was about to open, he didn't specify exactly when. With the timing uncertain, Ye Qing had to first find Lin Tianyou to arrange things, to avoid Lin Tianyou leaving and becoming hard to find.
Leaving Shen Family Manor, Ye Qing felt as though he had forgotten something for some reason. Despite walking all the way, he couldn't remember what it was. It wasn't until he was on the plane, halfway through the flight, when Ye Qing suddenly slapped the seat and exclaimed, "Handsome Fatty Wang!"
The people sleeping next to him all turned their heads to look at Ye Qing simultaneously, which left him embarrassed. He quickly apologized to everyone, while still feeling anxious. During the morning, he had been discussing matters related to Patriarch Bodhidharma with Shen Tianjun, and in the afternoon, he was preoccupied with Shen Qingyi's matters, completely forgetting about Handsome Fatty Wang. This guy sneered at the Taoist formation in the morning, only to be taken out for training by Shen Da, and Ye Qing completely forgot about him.
He didn't see Handsome Fatty Wang at lunch, which seemed to indicate that the kid probably hadn't yet escaped from the Stone Formation. Now suddenly remembering this, Ye Qing felt a rush of panic. Running around all day, he ended up leaving this fatty at Shen Family Manor. The most critical part is that calculating the time, Handsome Fatty Wang had been trapped in the Stone Formation for at least six or seven hours. Given his personality, wouldn't he cause a ruckus if let out?
Thinking about this, Ye Qing was just relieved he forgot Handsome Fatty Wang at Shen Family Manor. If he had rescued him after lunch, that rascal surely would have been relentlessly troublesome. Now leaving him at Shen Family Manor, at least Ye Qing didn't have to face him, thereby avoiding the wrath of the fatty.
On the plane, the phones were all turned off, so Ye Qing couldn't contact the people at Shen Family Manor. Luckily, it's not far from Xi Hang to Shenchuan City, and half an hour after disembarking the plane, Ye Qing immediately called Shen Family Manor to inform them about Handsome Fatty Wang's situation.
It seemed the people at Shen Family Manor also forgot about Handsome Fatty Wang. When Ye Qing mentioned the matter, he clearly heard Shen Da slap his thigh: "Oh my heavens, if you hadn't mentioned it, I'd have forgotten! That fatty is still trapped in the Stone Formation, he's probably been starving all day. Ye Zi, I won't talk to you now, I'll quickly go and get him out before he starves more."
"Wait a minute, wait a minute," Ye Qing quickly said, "I have some things to take care of, I can't go to Shen Family Manor to pick him up yet. How about keeping him there for a while longer, and once I've sorted everything out here, I'll go and get him."
Ye Qing knew Handsome Fatty Wang's personality. If he came to Shenchuan City in the next couple of days, he'd surely explode with rage at Ye Qing. So Ye Qing decided to leave him at Shen Family Manor for a while. Once his temper had cooled, when Ye Qing went to see him, he wouldn't get scolded too harshly.
"That works too," Shen Da replied, "I'll arrange a place for him to stay, don't worry."
"Thanks," said Ye Qing, hanging up the phone, finally relaxed. He couldn't imagine the outcome once Shen Da released Handsome Fatty Wang.
Ye Qing didn't return directly to his residence but went straight from the airport to the hospital to find Lin Tianyou. At this point, Lin Tianyou happened to be in his office, and upon seeing him, Ye Qing told him about the Divine Doctor's Order, including Divine Doctor An Shiping and Medicine King Mountain.
Lin Tianyou had been completely unaware of these matters before, so after listening to Ye Qing's words, he couldn't help but laugh: "Ye Zi, are you planning to switch careers to write novels? How did you think of so many mystical things?"
"I'm not joking," Ye Qing replied, "Do you remember the treatment methods I taught you before? Those methods were all passed down by Divine Doctor An Shiping, and they're real. Also, the two invitations we had at the Northwest Military Camp last time, those are Divine Doctor's Orders, left by Divine Doctor An Shiping. Only those with the Divine Doctor's Order could inherit Divine Doctor An Shiping's legacy. You have one, and I have one, so both of us are candidates for this competition!"
Seeing Ye Qing's serious expression which didn't look like a joke, Lin Tianyou was obviously somewhat surprised. He pondered for a while then said, "Ye Zi, are you really not joking?"
"If you don't believe me, come to Medicine King Mountain with me when the time comes and see for yourself," Ye Qing said.
"Where exactly is this Medicine King Mountain?" Lin Tianyou asked, "I've never heard of it before."
"I don't know either, but I'll find out soon," Ye Qing said. "Anyway, you can come with me when the time comes, then you'll know if what I'm saying is true or not."
Lin Tianyou thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go with you then."
Seeing Lin Tianyou agree, Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that Lin Tianyou wouldn't be able to accept this matter. Since Lin Tianyou agreed to go, there wasn't any problem at all.
"Alright, I..." Ye Qing had just said three words when the phone suddenly rang. He answered it casually, and a deafening roar came through: "Ye Qing, damn you, how dare you trick me, Handsome Fatty Wang? What the hell is that stone formation? You can't get out once you go in. Are you trying to kill me? Do you know how cold it is outside today? I'm only wearing a thin shirt, and I froze in that stone formation for nearly ten hours. I was hungry and cold, almost died. Meanwhile, you're eating lavishly, living comfortably, not caring about my survival? Damn you, is this how you treat a brother?"
Ye Qing was so shocked that his ears were almost deafened. He quickly held the phone away and pinched his voice, saying, "Sorry, you dialed the wrong number."
After speaking, Ye Qing hung up. Handsome Fatty Wang was throwing a fit, and Ye Qing didn't want to listen to him rant.
Beside him, Lin Tianyou looked at Ye Qing in surprise. Handsome Fatty Wang had spoken so loudly that even he heard it. Ye Qing's words left him puzzled, full of bewilderment.
Seeing Lin Tianyou's expression, Ye Qing felt embarrassed and quickly smiled, "This...this madman keeps making harassing calls."
Before he finished speaking, the phone rang again. Ye Qing smiled and said, "See, it's happening again, don't worry, you can keep busy."
Holding the phone, Ye Qing quickly walked out of Lin Tianyou's office. He went to an empty room, answered the call, and said, "Fatty, just stay at the Shen Family Manor for a while to cool down. Once I'm done with things here, I'll come over to pick you up. That's settled, don't call me again, I'm hanging up!"
As Ye Qing said this, he was about to hang up, but then Handsome Fatty Wang's voice came through again, shouting hysterically, "Ye Qing, damn you, Fatty will make you regret this..."
Ye Qing ignored him and hung up directly, blocking Handsome Fatty Wang's number, making sure not to receive any more calls from him, giving him time to calm down first.
Late at night, at the Great Buddha Mountain in Huaxia, a monk dressed in a yellow robe was slowly ascending the steps.
The night was dark, surrounded by mountains, and the shadowed cliffs looked like menacing monsters in the darkness, evoking fear in people. Few dared to walk up the mountain on such a night.
The Great Buddha Mountain was very famous because once a world-renowned temple was built here. This temple was none other than the esteemed Xiaolin Temple, the foremost temple of the Buddhist Sect in Huaxia.
However, more than twenty years ago, the successor of Xiaolin Temple, Bloody Monk, suddenly went mad and slaughtered everyone in Xiaolin Temple overnight. Xiaolin Temple became history in an instant, its former glory vanished, leaving only ruins. Once bustling with pilgrims, it was now so desolate that hardly anyone was willing to venture up the mountain. The once famous Buddhist mountain had become a barren hill, a testament to the ever-changing world.
Tonight's situation was very unique; not only was there a monk climbing the mountain, but he was doing so in the dead of night, something that had never happened before. Who exactly was this monk? And why was he climbing the mountain at this hour?
The monk appeared to be leisurely strolling along, but in truth, his pace was not slow. It wasn't long before he reached the top, arriving outside Xiaolin Temple.
Of course, the once world-famous Xiaolin Temple had now become a desolate ruin. At the entrance, the temple's plaque remained only in half. On this plaque, traces of blood were still visible, the remnants of the Bloody Monk's massacre from years ago. The surrounding ruins all spoke of the events that transpired here, and the ferocity of the Bloody Monk.
