I was a stepmother in ancient times, and I led my whole family to wealth.

Chapter 246 Medicine Valley

Ruyi explained to her, "In this world, as long as the great martial masters don't do anything reckless, they can all live to be over a hundred years old."

Grandmaster-level figures, if they don't act recklessly, are all around 180 years old.

Just live a normal life, and let nature take its course.

As one wishes……

You have a good idea, but unfortunately, some things don't go the way you want them to.

We already have a soul contract. As long as it exists and doesn't leave the Realm of Perfect Wishes, this contract holder can live.

Dongfang Jin was unaware of Ruyi's intentions; she had already been led by the black bear to the entrance of a cave.

This cave is located at the bottom of a cliff, and it is one meter above the ground.

The cave isn't very high, about 1.5 meters, and its area is only about 5 or 6 square meters.

In the middle was a futon, and on one side of the cave wall were several small square holes, each containing a box.

White Tiger: "This is where the old monk meditates and cultivates every day. He has lived here for a long time, but he leaves for a period of time every now and then."

When Lao Hei and I were kids, we were playful and accidentally ran here. We stole his medicinal herbs, and he left us here.

After he left, he never came back. Old Hei and I have stayed here ever since, keeping our promise.

Dongfang Jin...

They are quite trustworthy.

"Was this what the old monk told you to keep your promise?"

The black bear shook its head: "That bald monk didn't say."

Dongfang Jin...

Bald donkey?

"It wasn't him: 'Was it the fox who said it?'"

White Tiger: "Yes, it says that humans call people without hair on their heads 'bald donkeys'."

Black bear: "Yes, every time it goes out and comes back, it tells us about human things."

This promise to keep was said by the fox wife, who said that a real man should keep his word.

"If it doesn't keep its promise, it won't be able to find a wife in the future. Big White and I think it's absolutely right; that's what we were thinking too."

Dongfang Jin...

Where does that fox go?

And that female fox, these animals are all so intelligent, could there really be fox spirits in this world?

As one wishes……

What is this contractual master thinking about?

There are no animals in this world that have become sentient.

【how do you know? 】

First, one's luck is low; second, Heaven's will does not allow it.

Dongfang Jin: "..." Why did this involve the Heavenly Dao?

What kind of world did she travel to?

She seemed a little confused...

Just follow your own path in life, why worry about so many unnecessary things?

"Yeah, that's true. My dream is to make my whole family rich."

[Yes, that's good. Keep it up!]

Ruyi: Leading the whole family to wealth?

The emperor with the aura of destiny is your cousin, so he is also your family. Congratulations!

Dongfang Jin had no idea that her journey had only just begun, and a long road lay ahead for her.

“The fox’s wife makes a good point, and you two are also quite right.”

She was certain that the places those two foxes went to were not places where normal people go.

Moreover, those two foxes were wild; otherwise, people would compare some people to "foxes."

Seeing Dongfang Jin staring at the boxes, Baihu said, "These things were given to you by that bald man."

He said that when the right person comes, he will let you keep all these things, and this valley will also be yours.

"If you don't take it with you, we can stay here indefinitely."

Dongfang Jin was curious: who exactly was this bald monk they were talking about? But could the "Tang Monk" who appeared in Fang Jin's memory be him? Could it be him?

She used her internal energy to jump into the cave. Now she was 168 cm tall, and she had to bend over when she entered the cave.

Is that person that short?

Thinking about it, I walked over to the boxes and took one out. The box wasn't big, only about 30cm long and 10cm high. It looked like sandalwood, but not quite.

Ruyi, [This looks like it's made of dragon blood tree wood.]

[I don't know him,] Dongfang Jin now dislikes this uncertainty that lingers in her mind.

This spirit is too cunning and calculating. The sudden contract with her had already made her wary, and now that she's been given the ability to understand animal language, she's afraid...

Ruyi rolled her eyes in the space. This contract master really had a wild imagination. [The wood of the dragon blood tree is known for its strength and durability. The purplish-red liquid that flows from it is called "dragon blood" or "unicorn blood," a precious Chinese medicinal material with the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. It is often used to treat diseases such as muscle and bone pain.]

Dongfang Jin said irritably, "I don't understand!"

She wasn't a medical student, and the things that had appeared in her mind before never reappeared because of the appearance of this spirit.

She's gotten used to it now, and she won't read those books on her own initiative anymore.

Dongfang Jin opened it, and inside were all scriptures, which she couldn't understand, so she didn't continue reading.

However, the note above reads: "Let those who are destined to receive these books deliver them to a person named Jingkong."

She didn't recognize this either; it seemed she would need Long Er and the others' help.

There were five boxes on the wall; four of them contained scriptures, and the last box contained seeds.

It was pitch black, and I had no idea what kind of seed it was.

But Ruyi was very excited, saying, "Give it to me, I'll plant it and try."

If I'm not mistaken, these seeds are the seeds of the Bodhi fruit.

If they could sprout, the Ruyi Space would have to be expanded to at least double its current size.

Until then……

Without much thought, Dongfang Jin sent all the boxes to her spatial storage.

Would you like a meditation cushion?

To her surprise, no sooner had she asked than Ruyi said, "Yes."

She threw the futon into her spatial storage; she really is extremely greedy.

Unbeknownst to her, this prayer mat contained one of the things she desired, and it was imbued with the power of faith.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, looking at the valley not far away, Dongfang Jin looked at the animals by the pond.

Why aren't they afraid of you?

The black bear said, "It's not that they're not afraid, it's just that they're safe until it's hunting season."

Afterwards, the black bear and the white tiger explained the rules of the place to her: there is a hunting operation here every seven days.

After hearing this, Dongfang Jin sighed, "The game of natural selection, the survival of the fittest, and the law of the jungle is vividly displayed here."

"Won't they run away?"

The white tiger said, "This place is rich in resources, so where can they run? No matter where they run, they can't escape their fate."

Here, they have a few more days of peaceful coexistence.

Dongfang Jin nodded, agreeing. Then she suddenly remembered something else, an animal she hadn't seen among the group of animals.

Why aren't there any wolves here?

"Those despicable guys are over in the North Mountain. We have a hundred-year-old pact that we won't interfere with each other," Baihu said, his tone a mix of disdain and anger.

Dongfang Jin asked in bewilderment, "Did you draft this contract yourselves?"

The black bear shook its head: "No, it was that bald monk who set it up for them because they hurt people when they came down the mountain."

The bald monk killed their wolf king, and then chose a wolf from the pack to be their new king.

Are there many of them?

The white tiger shook its large head: "Not many, which is why they dare not invade this area."

His tone was somewhat proud.

Afterwards, Dongfang Jin rode the white tiger and toured the area.

Looking at the valley, Dongfang Jin realized it had clearly become a medicinal valley, indicating that the person who created it had put a lot of effort into it.

"This place is quite big," Black Bear and White Tiger said. "The land and roads here were all cleared and built by that bald monk himself."

At this moment, Dongfang Jin admired that person immensely. He had actually chosen such a tranquil valley to cultivate amidst these rolling mountains.

In this valley filled with strange rocks and overgrown weeds, such a fairyland has been carved out.
