"How did you know my address?" Fang Yu frowned when he saw the brothers Zhong Yuan and Zhong Liyu in front of him.
Seeing Fang Yu's expression, he seemed unhappy, and the expressions of both brother and sister changed.
"Master Fang, please forgive us for our presumptuous visit. Since the matter is urgent, we came directly to you..." Zhong Yuan forced a smile and said.
"What's the matter?" Fang Yu had no patience for these martial arts families.
"We want to cooperate with you..." Zhong Yuan said.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in cooperating with you." Fang Yu said and was about to close the door.
Seeing this, Zhong Liyu said urgently: "Master Fang, I learned from Miss Ji that you need the monster inner elixir, so we brought the eight monster beast inner elixirs from our collection to see you today."
"Eight demonic beast inner elixirs?" Fang Yu's face changed slightly, then he smiled and said, "Come in."
The changes in Fang Yu's attitude stunned both Zhong Yuan and Zhong Liyu.
After seeing Fang Yu's terrifying skills on Yuexin Lake, Zhong Yuan had the idea of cooperating with Fang Yu and entering Baichuan Mountain together.
Zhong Liyu found out from Ji Rumei that Fang Yu was only interested in the inner elixir of monsters.
After getting the consent of the family elders, the brother and sister came to Fang Yu with the only eight demonic beast inner elixirs in the family.
…
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Fang Yu took the box from Zhong Liyu, which contained eight monster inner elixirs.
Fang Yu opened it and took a look. They were all third-level monster inner elixirs, which were pretty good.
Zhong Yuan and Zhong Liyu looked at Fang Yu quietly, not daring to speak.
Especially Zhong Liyu, she remembered that when she first met Fang Yu at Ji's house, she looked down on Fang Yu and even made sarcastic remarks. Later, after arriving in the primitive forest, she even asked Master Tu, who was traveling with her, to attack Fang Yu.
But in the end, if Fang Yu hadn't taken action to kill the monster, her life would have been lost.
Now facing Fang Yu, Zhong Liyu was not only afraid, but also ashamed.
"Tell me, what do you want to cooperate with me for?" Fang Yu put the monster inner elixir aside and asked.
Zhong Yuan looked at Zhong Liyu. Zhong Liyu took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to look directly at Fang Yu, and said: "Master Fang, we received news that someone discovered a spiritual spring deep in Baichuan Mountain in the west of Jiangnan.
.”
"Lingquan?" Fang Yu frowned slightly.
"It is said that the spring water contains high-purity spiritual energy, which is of great benefit to the cultivation of warriors, so it has attracted the attention of countless warriors." Zhong Liyu said.
"Who spread this news? Why don't you just make a fortune after discovering the spiritual spring?" Fang Yu asked doubtfully.
"There is a village at the foot of Baichuan Mountain, where more than a hundred villagers live. Lingquan was discovered by several villagers when they went up to the mountain to hunt."
"At that time, they thought it was just ordinary spring water, so they scooped up a little and drank it. After drinking it, they felt very comfortable and became more powerful."
"So these villagers used the water bottles they carried with them to bring some spring water back to the village, and gave it to the highly respected village chief to taste. The village chief was a warrior, and he discovered that these springs contained spiritual energy..."
"This is how the news spread." Zhong Liyu introduced.
"Those villagers regard the Hongling Spring as their private property. The purpose of spreading the news is to attract outsiders to buy the Spiritual Spring water. In this way, they can make a lot of money." Zhong Yuan added.
"Then why don't you just go and buy it?" Fang Yu asked.
Zhong Yuan said: "Master Fang, let's not talk about whether the ownership of Lingquan belongs to the villagers in that village. More importantly, those villagers set the price very high. It is said that one million yuan can only buy a small cup.
Naturally, we cannot accept this price of spiritual spring water."
"Then why don't you just go up the mountain and find the spiritual spring yourself?" Fang Yu said again.
"This is why we came to Master Fang to cooperate."
"It is said that the location of Hongling Spring is extremely hidden, and only the villagers of that village know its location. And inside Baichuan Mountain... it is said that there is an ancient curse. No one is allowed to enter except the villagers of that village. Otherwise, they will suffer the power of the curse.
Died suddenly." Zhong Yuan said.
Fang Yu smiled faintly and said, "How can a noble martial arts family still believe in this kind of thing?"
Zhong Yuan's face changed slightly and he said: "Master Fang, it's not that we want to believe it, but the facts prove that there is indeed a curse in Baichuan Mountain!"
"Just the day before yesterday, the Wu family sent a team of four half-step masters and two grand masters into Baichuan Mountain. The original plan was to come out within three hours regardless of whether the spiritual spring was found or not."
"But as soon as this team entered Baichuan Mountain, they completely lost contact with the outside world and have not come out to this day."
After hearing Zhong Yuan's words, Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
If what Zhong Yuan said is true, then there might be something wrong inside Baichuan Mountain.
The team composed of four half-step masters and two grand masters is already strong, but no one can make it out.
But Fang Yu didn't believe in any comments like curses.
What is more likely is that there is a hungry, high-level monster inside Baichuan Mountain, and as long as it detects the existence of a creature, it will use it as food.
However, this cannot explain why those villagers can enter and leave Baichuan Mountain at will.
"So, you want me to enter Baichuan Mountain with you?" Fang Yu asked.
"Yes, Master Fang fought against Venerable Gu Rulong yesterday. We have been watching here. Master Fang, you are like a god descending to earth, making us wait..." Zhong Yuan recalled yesterday's scene and said with excitement.
"Okay." Fang Yu did not let Zhong Yuan continue, but turned to look at Zhong Liyu and said with a half-smile, "I remember that I met Miss Zhong Liyu before, right?"
Zhong Liyu trembled all over and his face immediately turned pale.
It seems that Fang Yu wants to settle old scores with her.
But before coming, Zhong Liyu was mentally prepared.
"puff!"
She fell to her knees, knelt down directly, bowed her head and apologized.
"Master Fang, the last time we met, I was very disrespectful to you. But then you came to my rescue in the virgin forest and saved my life. For this, I am very grateful to you, but also very regretful and ashamed.
.”
"I hope you can forgive me for what I did before."
"Save you? Oh, you misunderstood. At that time, I just wanted to get the inner elixir of the silver-clawed octopus. That's why I killed the octopus, not to save you." Fang Yu said.
Zhong Liyu lowered his head and said: "...No matter what, Master Fang, you still saved my life. Since then, I have been wanting to apologize to you and repay my kindness, but I have no courage or face..."
Fang Yu squinted at Zhong Liyu and saw that she didn't look like she was acting.
"Okay, get up." Fang Yu said.
Zhong Liyu looked happy, stood up, bowed to Fang Yu again, and said, "Thank you, Master Fang."
Fang Yu looked at Zhong Yuan and said, "What can I get if I cooperate with you?"
"If we can find the spiritual spring, our Zhong family only needs 30% of the spiritual spring! The remaining 70% will be given to you, Master Fang!" Zhong Yuan gritted his teeth and said.
Fang Yu smiled and said, "It sounds pretty good."
"Master Fang, have you agreed to cooperate with us?" Zhong Yuan said with a happy face.
"When will we set off?" Fang Yu asked.
"It's better to go as early as possible. After receiving the news, many martial arts families and sects immediately sent teams to Baichuan Mountain. If we go late, others may find Lingquan first," Zhong Yuan said.
Fang Yu glanced at the time, it was already five thirty in the afternoon.
"Then let's set off tomorrow morning." Fang Yu said.
"Okay, I will prepare the car tomorrow morning and wait for you downstairs, Master Fang." Zhong Yuan replied respectfully.
…
After the Zhong brothers and sisters left, Fang Yu sat on the sofa and started thinking.
Lingquan...
In fact, there is little point in cooperating with the Zhong family. If Lingquan really exists, Fang Yu can find it by going to Baichuan Mountain alone.
However, the news was brought by the Zhong family after all, so it doesn't matter if we give them a share of the pie.
Moreover, Fang Yu doesn't care about Lingquan, he cares more about the source behind Lingquan.
What is the source of the spiritual spring, the spiritual vein? Lingshi Mountain?
Being able to breed spring water containing high-purity spiritual energy, this source must be extraordinary.
What Fang Yu is really looking for is the source of the spiritual spring!
