Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 1883 - 1877: Chen Tianmin Visits
"Mr. Chen, the special stones you requested are stored in a safe, very secure, rest assured." The mine manager confidently replied and then led Chen Yang to the place where the spirit stones were stored.
Although the mine manager didn’t know the significance of those stones, they were specifically instructed by Wang Jingman, so he took great care to preserve them.
Inside the building at the mining site, there’s a specially built solid room with bricks.
The spirit stones are stored here.
Not only is the exterior reinforced with bricks, but there is also a very heavy safe placed inside.
All the spirit stones dug out are kept inside the safe.
The mine manager is extremely cautious, arranging almost all the security available in this place.
"Mr. Chen, here’s the recent output, take a look." The mine manager opened the safe with a key, revealing a pile of strangely shaped stones inside.
To outsiders, those pitch-black stones appeared completely useless.
But in the eyes of Chen Yang, a cultivator, they were a massive cluster of spiritual energy, capable of quickly boosting his cultivation level.
There were about seventy to eighty stones in the safe.
Varying in size.
However, there were more of the larger ones, and the lower-grade spirit stones occupied a small part.
More than seventy pieces, enough to support his cultivation for a while, they were quite a fortune.
"Alright, get me something to pack them up, I want to take them all with me." Chen Yang took a rough look, felt the output was about right, and didn’t bother to count carefully, directly asking the mine manager to find something to wrap them up. He wanted to take them all at once.
"Okay, just a moment."
The mine manager nodded with a smile, then went to find an inconspicuous bag to pack all the spirit stones from the safe, handing them over to Chen Yang.
"Mr. Chen, it’s packed, a bit heavy."
"Good."
Chen Yang nodded slightly, took over the spirit stones, and after briefly reminding the mine manager about the safety of mining and to contact him if needed, he drove away from Fuling Village, heading back to Liuhua Village.
With the resources from the spirit stones, as soon as Chen Yang got home, he closed the door for cultivation.
There’s nothing else to do anyway, why not enhance his strength?
In this seclusion, two days passed.
During these two days, the strength of his Spirit Gathering Realm rose to a new level, becoming incredibly robust!
Much stronger compared to the time of his recent breakthrough.
Besides enhancing his own power, he also continuously practiced and studied the two lower-grade profound cultivation techniques, Gathering Spirit Seal and Three Slashes.
He made good progress.
Setting aside Three Slashes, Gathering Spirit Seal had already reached a master level.
Now, when he raises his hand, a delicate seal compressed with spiritual energy appears instantly.
If thrown, it won’t just flatten a small hill, but at least it can crush a large stone on the spot.
This is a conservative estimate of its attack power.
Although Chen Yang kept improving his strength these two days, he frequently visited the company’s clinic as well.
After two days of recuperation, Chen Tianmin’s health improved significantly compared to a few days ago.
No longer in a skeletal state, skin and bones started to show some flesh.
His visits were frequent, but their relationship didn’t grow closer, they would only exchange a few words before Chen Yang hastily left each time.
Without figuring out what the person in front of him experienced over the past twenty years, and why he suddenly returned in such a state, Chen Yang couldn’t let down his guard.
Li Han wasn’t wrong after all.
Twenty years have passed, who knows what kind of person his second uncle has become?
He might have been used by the Gu Family against him.
So it’s only right to remain vigilant.
Knock knock...
On this night, a little past seven, Chen Yang just finished dinner and was preparing to resume his cultivation when suddenly a knock at the door rang out.
Chen Yang responded to the sound and went to open the door.
Standing outside was Chen Tianmin.
He wore the clothes Chen Yang had newly bought him, with the clinic uniform underneath.
In these two to three days of recovery, though he improved a lot, overall standing outside, he still appeared frail, giving the impression of being unable to withstand the wind, sickly.
"Why are you here?" Chen Yang wasn’t surprised, as he had already sensed his arrival.
Seeing Chen Yang, Chen Tianmin showed a smile: "Been lying around for two days, I’m getting rusty. Felt good today, thought I’d come and see the old house."
Hearing this, Chen Yang’s heart stirred slightly.
This house was where his grandfather had lived, his father had lived, where their family had lived.
But now, both his grandfather and parents were gone.
Suddenly, someone who could find some old affection in this old house appeared, naturally causing a ripple in Chen Yang’s heart.
"Come in." Chen Yang said nothing more, turned around, and let him in.
Chen Tianmin walked into the medical hall, looking at the house that hadn’t changed much in over a decade, his expression was also filled with emotion.
"The home is still the same as before, unchanged, the old man used to practice medicine here. Thinking about it, it feels like it all happened yesterday." Chen Tianmin said, touching the wooden countertop, his hands shaking from excitement.
"After grandpa passed, everything here remained unchanged, staying as is. It will always stay this way." Chen Yang’s heart stirred with emotion, he said.
"Yes, the old house is a connection for people, it should indeed be kept." Chen Tianmin agreed, nodding.
Chen Yang said nothing further, quietly watching as Chen Tianmin explored the house.
While examining, Chen Tianmin spoke a lot, unclear whether he was reminiscing or speaking to Chen Yang.
But Chen Yang didn’t respond, just listened silently.
After about ten minutes, Chen Tianmin finished thoroughly viewing the entire house.
When he finished, deep in his eyes, it seemed a layer of mist appeared, as he sat about two to three meters away from Chen Yang.
After sitting down, he didn’t say anything, the room was extremely quiet.
On the surface, it was very quiet, but internally, both men’s hearts were almost tumultuous.
"Your grandfather, when did he pass away? And your parents... why did they pass?"
Uncertain how long the silence lasted, Chen Tianmin suddenly spoke.
His voice was very low, if not for Chen Yang’s strong hearing, he wouldn’t have heard it.
"Grandpa passed over ten years ago, and my parents... died a few years ago in the village while building a road." Chen Yang said with complex emotions.
"Building a road?"
Chen Tianmin’s tone was surprised.
"Yes, a few years ago, to improve the village’s environment, nearby villages worked together to build a road connecting to the town outside, and they encountered a landslide, died together. Many from the village died at once as well." Chen Yang explained.
After hearing this, Chen Tianmin silently took out a pack of cigarettes, clearly freshly bought, weakly lighting one for himself.
