Even if the Boat Capsizes, It Won't Hurt Me.

Huangshan, originally named Yishan.

Legend has it that Emperor Huangdi once made elixirs here, hence the name Huangshan.

Therefore, there has always been a rumor about immortality in Huangshan. That is, after Emperor Huangdi succeeded in refining the elixir, he took one pill himself and then ascended to heaven on a dragon, but the remaining pills were hidden in an ancient well in Huangshan.

For thousands of years, countless people have wanted to find this well, take out the elixir in the well, and become immortal gods after taking it.

The Nie clan is the descendant of the guardian of the Dan Well, and their mission for generations is to protect the Dan Well.

While climbing the mountain, Nie Xiaoli told Xia Tian and the others some stories about Huangshan and the Nie family's ancestors.

"Governor?" The first thing Ning Ruirui thought of was the four governors in the remnant of the underworld. She always felt that there might be some connection.

"Yes, it seems to be called that, but no one calls it that now." Nie Xiaoli thought for a moment, and then added: "Because everyone thinks it's just a myth, and no one in the town has ever taken it seriously."

Ning Ruichen interrupted at this time and said, "Xiao Li, I think it might be true. After all, your physique is so special, it can't be created out of thin air."

Nie Xiaoli also had this doubt in his mind, especially after having broadened his horizons in the past two days, he always felt that there might be other hidden stories in this mythological story.

"But how is your Nie family related to Xia Tian's master chef Zhang Mingtuo?" Ning Ruirui suddenly thought of a question and couldn't help asking.

Nie Xiaoli shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. Before today, I had never heard of Zhang Mingtuo."

"I do know something." Mother Nie said slowly, "This may be related to an old incident forty years ago. There seemed to be a plague at that time, and many people in the clan died because of it. I was still young at that time. I only remember that many doctors came to the town, but later all the patients disappeared. Someone spread the word that a quack doctor named Zhang Mingtuo killed those people."

"Don't think about it, this must be a rumor." Xia Tian yawned lazily, "When the master was young, he liked to cure strange diseases, the stranger the better. Although he sometimes kills people and his medical skills are not as good as mine, he is definitely not a quack."

Mother Nie hesitated, obviously afraid of offending Xia Tian, ​​so she said, "These are stories passed down from the previous generation. I don't really know much about them."

"What is going on? Why don't you call your chef and ask him?" Ning Ruirui said to Xia Tian.

Xia Tian said lazily: "I don't call men, little long-legged girl, you call."

"I'll call if you want." Ning Ruirui was speechless. She took out her cell phone from Xia Tian's pocket, found Zhang Mingtuo's number and called him.

"What's the matter?" Soon, Zhang Mingtuo answered the phone, his tone quite impatient.

"Um, Master Chef, it's me." Ning Ruirui replied softly.

Zhang Mingtuo's attitude changed instantly, and he said with a smile: "Oh, it's Ruirui, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"It's like this." Ning Ruirui briefly recounted what she had experienced in Niejia Town, and then asked: "So, I want to ask you, Master, what exactly is the grudge between you and the Nie family, and what happened forty years ago?"

"You actually went to Niejia Town, haha." Zhang Mingtuo chuckled twice, then said calmly: "Forty years ago, the matter was not complicated. At that time, I had just escaped from the Gu Land, and I wanted to make a name for myself, so I looked for strange diseases everywhere. I would cure those that others couldn't cure. I would also cure those that others couldn't cure well. The matter of Niejia Town happened to happen when I was traveling in Huangshan."

Next, Zhang Mingtuo briefly talked about what happened in Niejia Town forty years ago, as well as some rumors he had heard about the Nie family.

It is said that about a hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Nie family found the ancient well where Emperor Huangdi made elixirs.

But the well was bottomless and extremely cold. The deeper you went, the colder it got. After going a hundred meters deep, the bone-chilling cold was unbearable for ordinary people.

More than forty years ago, a man of extraordinary talent emerged from the Nie family. Relying solely on his strong body, he was able to reach the bottom of the well and took out half of a broken golden pill.

After the genius of the Nie family took half a golden elixir, he suddenly went mad and became like a zombie, hurting and biting people everywhere.

Anyone who has been hurt by him will be infected with a strange virus and turned into half-dead, weird zombies.

At the same time, black evil spirits continued to gush out of the Dan Well, polluting almost half of Mount Huangshan. Anyone who was exposed to the evil spirits would also mutate.

In just three days, the Nie family could no longer bear it and had to seek help from the outside world.

There were quite a lot of people who came at that time, including many so-called famous doctors. However, they were busy for several days and could neither find the cause of the disease nor cure the patients, let alone get rid of the evil spirit.

It only temporarily controlled the spread of the disease and ensured that the situation would not escalate further.

At that time, Zhang Mingtuo was traveling near Huangshan Mountain. When he heard about this, he immediately rushed to Niejia Town.

First, he used the Nine Ghost Needles to kill the genius of the Nie family who had fallen ill, then he developed an antidote to restore those infected to normal, and finally he helped to temporarily seal the Dan Well that was emitting evil spirits.

I don’t know why, but among those who took the antidote, several people died inexplicably.

Those members of the Nie family turned against Zhang Mingtuo in an instant, forgetting the kindness that Zhang Mingtuo had shown in saving their entire family, and instead wanted to kill Zhang Mingtuo.

Fortunately, Zhang Mingtuo was never a person who would repay a favor. He specialized in curing strange diseases purely out of interest and to become famous at the same time. When he saw that the situation was not good, he ran away in advance and escaped disaster once again.

However, from then on, Zhang Mingtuo became a taboo that could not be mentioned in Niejia Town, and the well was sealed.

…

"So that's how it is." Mother Nie compared what Zhang Mingtuo said with her childhood impressions one by one, and it really explained the inconsistent parts. She instantly believed most of it.

Nie Xiaoli also nodded. She knew the thoughts of the elders of the Nie family too well. Not only were they capable of repaying kindness with enmity, but they were also quite skilled at it.

"Master, what's in that well?" Ning Ruirui thought of another question, "Could it be that there really is an elixir of immortality left by the Yellow Emperor?"

"Haha, who knows about this kind of thing." Zhang Mingtuo did not comment on this, and said lightly: "You can ask Xia Tian to go and see what is at the bottom of the well. Anyway, he is definitely able to get down there with his ability."

Xia Tian was not polite at all and pointed out: "Master chef, if you don't know, just say you don't know. Why are you pretending to be so arrogant?"

"I don't want to bother with you!" Zhang Mingtuo got a little angry after hearing Xia Tian's words. After cursing once or twice, he couldn't help but remind him, "The Nie family doesn't have many people who are worth mentioning, but there are two people you must pay attention to. If you're not careful, you might really capsize."

Xia Tian still didn't take it seriously.

"Which two people?" Ning Ruirui couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Mingtuo briefly recalled and then said, "One is called Nie Yunhai, the third son of the Nie family forty years ago. He is a master of poison and has a vicious mind. He was the one who was secretly causing trouble back then, otherwise the situation would not have been so serious."

Ning Ruirui then asked: "What about the other one?"

"I don't know if the other one is still alive." Zhang Mingtuo said slowly, "His name is Nie Renlong. He was the elder of the Nie family forty years ago. He is now almost 120 years old. He should be dead, but it's hard to say about the Nie family. There are many strange things. Anyway, you better be careful. Especially in the summer, even if you are really invincible, it doesn't mean you won't be ambushed. Be careful."

Xia Tian said lazily, "It's impossible for anyone to plot against me, Master Chef, you should just mind your own business, and even if the boat capsizes, it won't hurt me."

"It's up to you then." Zhang Mingtuo said calmly, "I still have things to deal with, so I won't waste my time talking to you guys."

"Okay, thank you, Master." Ning Ruirui thanked him seriously and hung up the phone.

Nie Xiaoli said at this time: "That Nie Yunhai is our third uncle. He became a monk forty years ago and is now the abbot of Yunxian Temple."

"How many people from your grandfather's generation are still alive?" Ning Ruirui asked casually.

"My grandfather had nine brothers and sisters, but only four are still alive."

Nie Xiaoli sorted it out in his mind, then counted on his fingers and said, "Although my grandfather is the head of the family, he is actually the seventh child. The eldest and second oldest have long died. The third oldest is Nie Yunhai, and the fourth oldest is Nie Yunmeng, a Taoist priest who now looks after the tea garden. There is also a ninth aunt, Nie Yunyan, who is a member of the clan elders' council and lives in a villa halfway up the mountain."

"Do you know that Nie Renlong?" Ning Ruirui asked.

Nie Xiaoli shook his head: "Never heard of it."

"I haven't heard of him either." Mother Nie also shook her head. If Zhang Mingtuo hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have known that there was such a person in the clan.

"No matter what, everyone should be more careful." Ning Ruirui reminded at the right time: "I always feel that something is not right, and my chest is also slightly uncomfortable."

When Xia Tian heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really, little long-legged girl, where do you feel uncomfortable? Let me feel it for you."

"Go play somewhere else." Ning Ruirui slapped Xia Tian's messy hand away and glared at him fiercely: "Your master also told you to be careful."

"He's just getting old, talking too much and becoming timid." Xia Tian said with a smile, "It could also be that he's been worn out by the new mistress."

After walking for a while, they finally reached a fork in the road.

To the left is the villa halfway up the mountain, and to the right is naturally to the Yunxiang Tea Garden. The group has to split up here.

"Mom, don't be soft-hearted and don't be fooled by those people. Just pick up my sister and leave." Nie Xiaoli carefully warned her mother.

"Mom knows." Mother Nie also reminded: "Your fourth uncle has a strange temper and may not help us. You should be careful."

Soon, the group separated neatly.

After separating, Xia Tian and Nie Xiaoli obviously quickened their pace and soon climbed over half of the hill.

Soon, a young Taoist priest came out from behind a huge rock beside the road and chanted in an unwritten voice:

"You two should stop here. If you go any further, your life may be in danger."
