Chapter 63: The Liang family in Xiling, are wild species also matched?
On the seventh day of sailing on the Yangtze River, the cruise ship passed through Xiling Province.
Li Wenchan and Wang Yuanlong got off the cruise ship together. Wang Yuehan and Yang Xuerou originally wanted to follow them, but they severely refused.
After all, Zhongnan Mountain is related to the seal, and the Dao Dharma Conference is about to be held. People from all religions and nine schools will be attracted by then, and it will definitely not be safe if dragons and snakes are mixed together.
Even if Li Wenchan had the might of heaven, he would not be able to take care of them all the time.
"Zhongnan Mountain is located in Chang'an City, Xiling Province. It takes about two or three days to take a taxi from us."
Wang Yuanlong said.
He is from Xiling, not from Jiang Province.
In the early years, when Wang Yuehan's mother came to Xiling for a trip, the two fell in love at first sight and gave birth to Wang Yuehan.
Therefore, he is quite familiar with this area of Xiling Province and can be regarded as a local leader here.
"I remember the landform of Xiling Province. It is lined with mountains and has many mountains. It is a famous mountainous landform. Are there any precious medicinal materials or monsters here?" Li Wenchan asked.
Xiling Province even has the word "ling" in its name. This name was not chosen casually.
More than half of the landforms in this province and city are made up of continuous large and small mountain ranges, with groups of mountains even called the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
In the deep mountains and old forests, there are often some ancient medicinal materials and even some monsters hidden there.
He also wanted to refine some high-level elixirs such as the 'Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Resurrection Pill' so that he could cleanse Li Shiyu's hair and cut his marrow and prolong his life for his parents.
Gadgets like Peiyuan Dan are regarded as treasures in the eyes of others, but to him, they are completely out of the question.
Last time he asked the rich people in Lin'an City for help, he only found some medicinal materials, and there was still a lot missing.
"I don't know about monsters. Maybe Master or his elders will know about it. Then I will help you ask Master. As for medicinal materials, you have asked the right person. Our Xiling Province is one of the largest wholesalers of medicinal materials in the country, especially
It's over in Chang'an City, where there are many century-old drug stores."
"Then let's go to Chang'an City and try it first."
Li Wenchan made the decision.
The two immediately took a taxi, and after arriving in Chang'an City, Wang Yuanlong took him straight to a large medicine hall.
From far away, I could smell the strong medicinal fragrance.
"This Zhenbaotang is a very famous century-old brand in Xiling Province. If there are any valuable medicinal materials, it has to be here. Medicinal materials worth several million are often found here. Even our Taoist temple is from here.
Regular customer!”
Wang Yuanlong led Li Wenchan in with ease.
I saw that the lobby was very spacious, with carved pillars and painted beams, and was antique. The air was filled with the smell of medicinal materials and the aroma of the sandalwood used to place the medicinal materials.
These sandalwood shelves are all more than a century old sandalwood, and these alone are worth a lot of money.
"Excuse me, two guests, do you want to buy anything?"
When a staff member saw it, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically.
Li Wenchan asked: "Do you have Polygonum multiflorum, deer antlers, rhodiola, musk, ginseng that are more than 50 years old here?"
He reported a lot of medicinal materials in one go, all of which were used to refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Resurrection Pill.
"Uh..." Unexpectedly, when the staff member heard this, he suddenly looked embarrassed and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, sir, these medicines have been bought by others."
"Bought it?"
Li Wenchan frowned, so unlucky?
"Hey, you are...Brother Li Wenchan?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded.
Li Wenchan looked around and saw that she was a little lolita about ten years old, probably still in elementary school. She was wearing a school uniform, with a white shirt on her upper body and a short skirt on her lower body, revealing two thin white legs.
Although her face is still a little immature and her facial features are not fully opened, when she smiles, her eyes are thin and charming, like a little fox, a typical beauty.
"I am Li Wenchan, yes, but who are you?"
Li Wenchan was a bit unfamiliar. This was Chang'an City, Xiling Province. He didn't remember that he knew this little girl.
"Brother Wenchan, it's me, Chu Luoluo! Have you forgotten me? When you were a kid, you came to the Liang family and we played together."
Chu Luoluo jumped up and said in surprise.
"It's Luoluo." Li Wenchan finally remembered.
Liang family!
It seems like he hasn't been here for five years.
Five years ago, the little girl Chu Luoluo was only about five years old. Now that she has grown so big, of course he can't recognize her.
What's more, there are three hundred years of hard training in Kunlun, so the time will be even longer.
"Xian son-in-law, who is this?" Wang Yuanlong asked curiously.
"It's my cousin."
At this moment, Li Wenchan thought of many things.
His father, Li Xiangnan, is from the Liang family in Xiling Province.
However, Li Xiangnan was born into the Liang family, but his surname was Li, not Liang. This involves some old things!
The Liang family in Xiling Province can be regarded as a wealthy family here. Their family assets are worth several billion, and they are ranked among the top five families in Chang'an City.
Li Xiangnan was born into the Liang family and was supposed to be rich and powerful, but unfortunately, he was not welcomed at all because he was an illegitimate son.
Li Xiangnan's father, Liang Tiansheng, had an affair with a girl named Li Cuiqin and gave birth to an illegitimate child.
This illegitimate son is Li Xiangnan.
Li Xiangnan's existence was not recognized by Liang Tiansheng at all. He didn't care about a little illegitimate child.
And because he was an illegitimate child, the Liang family unanimously believed that he did not deserve the surname "Liang", so he took the surname "Li" after Li Cuiqin.
Furthermore, Liang Tiansheng's wife, Madam Zhou, was a cruel and jealous woman.
After she learned about the existence of Li Cuiqin and Li Xiangnan's mother and son, she actually pretended to recognize them, took them to the Liang family, and then kept them in captivity like slaves.
Li Xiangnan told Li Wenchan that when he was a child, he followed his mother and had no status in the Liang family. He was treated like a servant.
Even her fucking status is lower than that of a nanny, and she has to do some dirty and tiring work every day.
And he himself was often bullied by several children of the Liang family.
In the eyes of the Liang family, they did not treat their mother and son as human beings at all.
Later, when his mother was less than forty years old, she died early due to mental and physical weakness.
When Li Xiangnan grew up, he also left the Liang family and settled in Lin'an, and had no contact with the Liang family until death.
"I remember that my father's biggest wish was not to be rich and powerful, but to move grandma's grave to Lin'an. However, every time my father went to the Liang family and tried to move grandma's grave, he failed."
"I only learned about these past events when my father was drunk..."
Li Wenchan remembered that it was Qingming Festival.
He asked Li Xiangnan a question: Why does the family never visit graves during Qingming Festival?
At that time, Li Xiangnan was stunned and drank a lot of wine.
As a result, after getting drunk, Li Xiangnan kept crying and kept saying: His son is unfilial and useless, and he can't even visit his mother's grave every year.
Only then did Li Wenchan know the truth.
It turns out that after Li Cuiqin passed away, the tomb was built next to the Liang family's ancestral home. If Li Xiangnan wanted to visit Li Cuiqin's grave, he had to go to the Liang family.
But the Liang family wouldn't let him in at all.
"I remember telling my dad at that time that we should go back to the Liang family for a visit. Maybe the Liang family would be willing to let us see grandma's tomb for the sake of my grandson..."
At that time, Li Wenchan naively thought that blood was thicker than water and that his identity as a grandson might serve as a bridge.
After hearing what he said, Li Xiangnan felt a glimmer of hope and took him to the Liang family.
As a result, the two of them were kicked out by the bodyguards without even entering the door.
He still remembers what Mistress Zhou said at that time: "A bastard who gave birth to a little bastard is worthy of entering my Liang family?"
The ridicule of the Liang family at that time is still vivid in my mind!
However, not everyone in the Liang family is so repulsive to them.
At least Liang Tiansheng's youngest daughter Liang Huixiang, who is also Li Wenchan's aunt, is a kind person. She has a good relationship with Li Xiangnan in private and is also very kind to Li Wenchan.
After being kicked out by the Liang family, Liang Huixiang, the aunt, took Li Wenchan to play in Xiling for several days and ate a lot of delicious food in order to comfort him.
And Chu Luoluo is Liang Huixiang, the daughter of an official named Chu.
This girl Chu Luoluo was also there at that time. She kept asking questions about Brother Chan, and she was very well-behaved.
"Brother Wenchan, I have a good memory. I haven't seen you for such a long time, but I can still recognize you. After several years of not seeing you, brother Wenchan has become a handsome guy." Chu Luoluo said with a smile.
"is very good."
Li Wenchan smiled.
He had a good impression of this ten-year-old cousin.
"Luoluo, who are you chatting with so happily?"
At this time, several young men and women came over, all of them were expensively dressed and had an extraordinary bearing.
Especially the girl at the head, who is tall, arrogant and noble, has her hair tied up with a hosta, and is wearing a uniform skirt that covers her hips, looking like an icy beauty.
As soon as he saw them, Li Wenchan's eyes suddenly turned cold.
