Chapter 124: The Primeval Forest

  Night Phoenix Entertainment City

  Inside the VIP room on the third floor.

  Long Xiao Tian poured tea for Lin San while saying, "Third Brother, the two secret formulas you gave me, ninety percent of the materials can be gathered, but there are two things that cannot be found."

  Lin San Du picked up his teacup and took a light sip: "What two things?"

  "There is one called Zi Lian Hua and another one is Qian Nian Cao, I asked many pharmacies but none of them have these two things." Long Xiao Tian replied.

  Lin San's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Are these two things really so hard to find?"

  "Third Brother, I'm sorry. I wasn't able to complete the task you entrusted me with." Long Xiao Tian said with some guilt, before the new year, he had patted his chest and guaranteed that he would definitely gather all the materials on the two secret formulas, but now a week has passed and there are still two materials that haven't been found, it's really frustrating.

  Lin San waved his hand: "You've done your best, no need to feel guilty."

  "Buzz, buzz, buzz..." The phone on the coffee table suddenly started vibrating.

  Long Xiao Tian hastily picked up his phone and answered it, listening for a few sentences before a hint of a smile appeared on his face.

  "What's going on, so happy?" Lin San curiously asked after Long Xiao hung up the phone.

  Long Xiao Tian smiled and said: "Just received news, Li Nan Tian has time to see me today..."

  Lin San was taken aback: "Who is Li Nan Tian?"

  "You don't even know Li Nan Tian?" Long Xiao Tian's face revealed an expression of incredulity.

  Lin San shook his head: "I don't know, what's so famous about this Li Nan Tian?"

  Long Xiao Tian laughed: "It's not just famous, it's too famous! A renowned celebrity at home and abroad!"

  "Who is this Li Nan Tian anyway?" Lin San searched his brain carefully, but he couldn't think of anyone named Li Nan Tian. From Long Xiao Tian's words, it seemed that Li Nan Tian was a big shot, perhaps a celebrity or even a national leader?

  "Li Nantian is a Chinese medicine practitioner." Long Xiantian did not beat around the bush and directly stated Li Nantian's identity.

  Lin San curiously asked: "What kind of Chinese medicine is so famous?"

  "This Li Nan Tian's medical skills are extremely high, any difficult and complicated diseases can be cured by him. It is said that in the past, a foreign president contracted a strange disease, and all the famous doctors in the world couldn't cure it. Finally, this president found Li Nan Tian with a try-it-out mentality, who unexpectedly succeeded in curing the president's strange disease in just half a month... Li Nan Tian is a kind-hearted person, often using his spare time to provide free medical treatment for some poor people, and has a high reputation among the people..." Long Xiao Tian briefly described Li Nan Tian's background.

  Lin San raised an eyebrow: "Are you going to ask Li Nan Tian about the whereabouts of the Purple Lotus and the Millennium Grass?"

  Long Xiao Tian nodded: "I've already asked around, the Purple Lotus and Thousand Year Grass are both Chinese medicinal herbs, they're just extinct. Li Nan Tian has been practicing traditional Chinese medicine for so many years, he might know where to find the Purple Lotus and Thousand Year Grass."

  "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go find Li Nan Tian now." Upon hearing that Li Nan Tian knew the whereabouts of the Purple Lotus Flower and the Thousand Year Grass, Lin San couldn't sit still anymore.

  "Third brother, don't worry, Li Nan Tian will come to Lanzhou City at 2:30 this afternoon for a symposium. After the meeting ends at 3 o'clock, we'll go find him." Long Xiao Tian said with a smile.

  At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin San and Long Xiao Tian arrived at the hotel where Li Nan Tian was staying.

  When he met Long Xiantian and Lin San, Li Nantian showed great enthusiasm.

  "Mr. Li, this is the tea I bought for you, top-grade Bi Luo Chun." Long Xiao Tian had already found out that Li Nan Tian loved drinking tea, so he specially had someone buy some Bi Luo Chun as a gift to present when they met.

  Li Nan Tian waved his hand and chuckled: "Mr. Long is really too polite."

  Lin San sat on the sofa, quietly observing Li Nan Tian's every move. Judging from his appearance, Li Nan Tian was probably around 70 years old, with white hair and a face full of wrinkles. He wore a white coat, and as a whole, he looked exceptionally spirited.

  "Mr. Li, I came today mainly to ask you about the whereabouts of two things." As he spoke, Long Xiantian took out a white paper from his pocket and handed it to Li Nantian.

  Li Nan Tian took over the white paper in confusion, opened it and was stunned: "Purple Lotus Flower and Thousand Year Grass?"

  "Mr. Li, do you know what happened to these two things?" Long Xiantian looked at Li Nantian with tension.

  Li Nantian hesitated for a moment: "Zi Lian Hua and Qian Nian Cao are both extremely precious Chinese medicinal materials, however..." He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.

  "But what?" Long Xiang Tian asked back.

  "The purple lotus and thousand-year grass have been extinct for a long time." Li Nan Tian sighed: "I saw the records of the purple lotus and thousand-year grass in a medical book before, it is said that they can cure all diseases, unfortunately, they have been extinct since the end of the Song Dynasty, and cannot be found at all." By the end, a hint of regret flashed on Li Nan Tian's face.

  Long Xiao Tian and Lin San exchanged a glance, both of their eyes revealing disappointment.

  "Li Lao, really can't find the Zi Lian Hua and Qian Nian Cao?" Long Xiao Tian asked with some persistence.

  Li Nan Tian hesitated for a moment: "There is one place where we might be able to find it."

  "Where is it?" Long Xiang Tian hastily asked.

  Lin San also had an expectant look on his face.

  Li Nan Tian raised his head and glanced at Long Xiao Tian and Lin San Yi: "Primitive Forest."

  "Primitive Forest?"

  Li Nan Tian nodded: "The primeval forest has never been destroyed by humans, and many things that have become extinct in the outside world still survive inside. Who knows, maybe there are purple lotus flowers and thousand-year-old grass inside." Li Nan Tian's words were purely speculative, and whether or not the primeval forest actually contained purple lotus flowers and thousand-year-old grass could only be known by going in to look for them. However, the primeval forest was full of ferocious beasts and hidden traps, making it a place of extreme danger, where ordinary people would have no way out but death.

  "Knock knock knock." A faint knocking sound suddenly came from the doorway.

  "Come in." Li Nantian shouted out loud.

  A woman in her 40s wearing a professional suit came in: "Dr. Li, it's time for your appointment."

  Seeing Li Nan Tian busy with something, Lin San and Long Xiao Tian stood up at the same time to bid farewell.

  "Outside the hotel, Long Xiao Tian asked: "Third Brother, what's next?"

  Lin San smiled: "Don't worry about the Purple Lotus Flower and Thousand Year Grass anymore, focus on developing the Flying Eagle Gang."

  "But..." Long Xiao Tian wanted to say something more.

  "Alright, it's getting late, let's head back." After saying that, Lin San opened the car door and got in.

  Long Xiao Tian hastily sat in the driver's seat, started the car and slowly drove away.

  Tiancang Mountain, with an elevation of 2350 meters, is famous for its majesty, danger, uniqueness and beauty. The mountain peak pierces the sky, with clouds and mist swirling around it, creating a mysterious atmosphere. The cliffs hide caves amidst the dense forest, while snow accumulates in winter and spring, and purple mist rises in summer and autumn, making it a truly unparalleled fairyland.

  More than 3,000 mu of primitive forest grows around the peak, which is the largest primitive forest in China and a first-class natural reserve.

  A streak of green light flashed, and Lin San gently floated down into the forest on the peak of Tiancang Mountain.

  "Whoosh..." A small bird was startled and flew out from the branch, fleeing in all directions.

  Lin San glanced around at the towering trees surrounding them, nodding slightly: "The trees here are indeed taller and larger than those outside, and even the air is fresher."

  "Roar......" A sudden animal roar came from the woods in the east.

  Lin San was stunned, lifted his foot and walked in the direction of the roar, after walking about 100 meters, a small clearing appeared in front of him. Lin San looked ahead and saw something that made him freeze.

  A majestic and powerful tiger is fighting a giant snake that is over ten meters long, the tiger's body is covered in wounds and seems to be at a disadvantage.

  "Roar!!" The tiger let out a loud cry and pounced on the giant snake.

  The giant snake did not show weakness either, and swung its tail to heavily whip the tiger's buttocks.

  "Bang!" A deep gash suddenly appeared on the tiger's buttocks, and a thread of fresh blood slowly dripped down to the ground.

  The giant snake quickly rushed up and wrapped its long body tightly around the tiger.

  The tiger was struggling violently, its big mouth constantly biting the giant snake's body, and a stream of emerald green snake blood slowly flowed into the tiger's mouth.

  Lin San stood behind a tree, stunned by what was happening in front of him: "Good fellow, this tiger and giant snake are really fierce!"

  "Hiss......" The giant snake suddenly let out a miserable cry, released the tiger and quickly fled westward.

  Lin San took a closer look and found that one of the giant snake's eyes had been scratched out by the tiger. It was likely that the snake felt it couldn't beat the tiger, so it escaped.

  The tiger roared and chased after it, and in a short while, the snake and the tiger disappeared into the depths of the forest.

  "Wow..." Lin San let out a gentle sigh: "Today was really an eye-opener." In all his years, Lin San had never seen a tiger and snake fighting before. The thrilling scene was simply indescribable.

  Lin San took out a compass from his bosom, identified the direction, and then set off towards the north.

  There are many animals in the forest, and almost every few steps, you can see one or two small animals. The species of these animals are also very diverse, with many that Lin San has never seen before. On the way, Lin San even encountered a large black bear.

  The big black bear saw Lin San, and without saying a word, it pounced on him. As a result, it was severely beaten by Lin San. If Lin San hadn't shown mercy, the big black bear would have gone to see its ancestors.

  The sky quickly darkened.

  Lin San stopped in his tracks, found a relatively open space, gathered some dry branches to build a fire pit, then caught a wild chicken and slowly roasted it over the flames. As a Golden Elixir cultivator at the initial stage, Lin San could fully absorb nutrients from the air to supplement his body's energy needs, so even if he didn't eat, he wouldn't starve to death. However, Lin San wouldn't actually go on a hunger strike; even if he wasn't hungry, he still wanted to eat some delicious food to satisfy his cravings.

  Lin San came to Tianyun Mountain, had already looked up information about the purple lotus flower and the thousand-year-old grass, and finally found pictures of the two medicinal materials. The purple lotus flower is actually a small purple flower with nine leaves, not very tall, easy to identify. The thousand-year-old grass is a small green grass that grows in the cracks of rocks, with a white fruit at its center, emitting a fragrance that wafts out in waves.
