The Three Aeons that Zhao Baoyun mentioned was the Three Aeons Herb Garden.
The Three Yuan Herb Garden was very close to the Nine Yuan where Li Yuanqing was. The distance between the two was only a few dozen miles. In a short while, they could reach the periphery of the Three Yuan Herb Garden.
Li Yuanqing held a jade token in his hand. This was the token that Zhao Baoyun had given him. He stood alone outside the valley, waiting.
The herb gardens in the Martial Essence Sect had the same structure. They were ail surrounded by three hills.
Their seemingly vast herb gardens were actually mostly man-made. Li Yunqing had also seen the medicinal fields of other sects. The structure was quite different from this one. It could be said that each sect had its own unique structure.
As he was looking around, a small path suddenly opened up in the bamboo forest in front of him. A middle-aged man with very fair skin walked out.
The middle-aged man was originally expressionless, but when he saw that Li Yuanqing was alone, his expression became a little impatient.
He walked to Li Yuanqing’s side and looked around Li Yuanqing. Finally, his gaze stopped on Li Yunqing’s body and fell on the jade token.
The man took the jade token and closed his eyes to sense for a while. Then, he casually put away the jade token and waved at Li Yuanqing,”Come with me. Don’t just stand here like a fool.”
After he finished speaking, he walked into the bamboo forest by himself, without the slightest intention of paying attention to Li Yuanqing.
Li Yuanqing looked at his footprints as he passed through the winding path in the bamboo forest and arrived at the vast medicinal garden.
The structure here was too similar to his place. After Li Yuanqing came here, he felt as if he had returned to his own territory.
“What’s wrong? Didn’t they all have manuals? How could there be something that he couldn’t understand?”
The man sat under a wooden shed. A pile of medicinal herbs was placed on a small wooden table in front of him. Some were dried branches and leaves, while some were crushed pulp. There were all kinds of materials placed there, and there was a huge pile.
Li Yuanqing coughed lightly and said,” The situation is like this. I accidentally broke the vines of two Fire Spirit Fruits. I don’t know how to make up for the lack of production.””
The man raised his eyes and glanced at Li Yuanqing in confusion.””Didn’t you just arrive? How could he be so careless? These teaching materials were all extremely precious treasures. If he damaged one, he would be in trouble. Why did he have two vines? That fruit should still be usable, right?”
“I can’t use the fruit anymore, so I came to ask you.”
“Ask me?” The man looked at Li Yuanqing unhappily. He seemed to be dissatisfied with Li Yuanqing’s attitude.
He turned to the side and fiddled with the half-finished medicinal herbs in front of him.” I have nothing to ask. Everything we know is in your jade pendant.” If you can’t find it there, it’s useless to ask me.”
Li Yuanqing came to his side and sat down on the small stool. He looked at him and asked,”Senior, is there anyway for me to make up for the loss of this portion of the Fire Spirit Fruit? If such a thing happens again in the future, I’m afraid my harvest will be reduced. At that time, I won’t be able to keep this job.”
The man continued to ignore Li Yuanqing’s question.
“You just have to be careful. Although these medicinal herbs are delicate, they won’t be damaged just by touching them. Who knows how you did it? The fruits on the two vines are all ruined? That’s not a small amount.”
The man originally wanted to reject Li Yuanqing, but Li Yuanqing calling him senior made him feel very comfortable. He could not help but say a few more words.
“After you go back, carefully read the rules recorded on it. Don’t be so careless. Nothing will happen.”
The man looked at Li Yuanqing and tried to persuade him. However, Li Yuanjing’s purpose in coming here today was not just for this sentence. He had other plans.
“Senior, do you really not have any other methods?”Li Yuanqing suddenly took out a wooden box and placed it in front of the man.” I still don’t know your name, Senior?”
The man’s gaze landed on the wooden box. He pretended to be nonchalant and opened the wooden box a little.
With just a glance, he immediately closed the wooden box and placed one hand on it gently. His expression was much friendlier.
“My name is Wang Lin. You can call me big brother Wang from now on.”
“Thank you, Brother Wang!” Li Yuanqing slightly clasped his hands at Wang Lin.” I am Li Yuanqing. 1 just arrived and didn’t know the rules. I hope big brother Wang can forgive me.””
“Hey.” Wang Lin waved his hand and took out two teacups to fill them with spirit tea.” There are no rules, so you don’t have to care so much. However, the monthly production of these herbs is fixed, and there are some loose amounts. Generally speaking, you won’t run into a situation that is too difficult.”
“Big brother might not know this, but this little brother has finally gotten such a job, and I don’t want to lose it for no reason, so I want to be safe. If big brother has a way, please tell me the truth.”
Wang Lin’s hand gently rubbed the wooden box as he pondered and looked at Li Yuanqing..
