Chapter 68: The Nine-turning Needle Manual

Gu An interrupted Mei Jiang’s topic. “Let’s talk about the medicinal herbs.”

Mei Jiang’s expression turned serious. She put away her seductive demeanor and looked at Gu an. “I wonder where Miracle Doctor An got the Nine-turning Needle Manual from.”

They were willing to take the risk to trade with Gu An precisely because she had the Nine-turning Needle Manual in her hands.

This was a treasure that had been lost since something happened to the King of Medicine’s Valley.

It was a pity that they didn’t have the time to take it away back then.

A trace of pity flashed through Mei Jiang’s eyes.

She raised her head and looked at Gu An with a hint of fanaticism and pride.

No matter how stubborn the old man was, in the end, this needle manual would still fall into her hands.

Gu An’s expression was also somewhat inexplicable. After raising the tea cup to cover her expression, she said, “I obtained it by chance, near Yuzhou City.”

As soon as he said this, Mei Jiang became even more unguarded.

Yuzhou City was exactly a town near the King of Medicine’s Valley.

Perhaps someone had picked up this needle manual and it had fallen into Gu An’s hands.

However, Gu An’s appearance made Mei Jiang ponder.

Her face was somewhat similar to the Young Valley Master from back then.

But back then, the Young Valley Master was only twelve years old, and on top of that, she was a woman.

Gu An saw Mei Jiang’s hesitation and her face darkened. “What’s wrong? I’ve already looked for you guys a few times, but you guys have been playing tricks on me time and time again. I took out the Nine-turning Needle Manual as a sign of my sincerity, but you guys have not shows any sincerity at all.”

It was the first time she had said so much, and it was enough to show that Gu An was really angry.

Mei Jiang’s face changed, and she laughed coquettishly. “Don’t be angry, Miracle Doctor An. We’re just being cautious. You know, ever since the King of Medicine’s Valley’s incident, the Ganoderma has been a hot commodity. I’m also afraid that it will fall into the hands of the evil people.”

Gu An suddenly questioned, “Didn’t you say that you’re from the King of Medicine’s Valley? What are you afraid of? Or did you have somehing to do with the destruction of the King of Medicine’s Valley back then?”

Mei Jiang was shocked, and she looked at Gu An in bewilderment.

She clenched her hands tightly, and she was prepared to go defensive.

Instead, Gu An raised her eyebrows in surprise, “It’s just a joke. Why are you so nervous?”

Gu An’s expression was too calm, as if she had just said something unimportant.

Mei Jiang gradually calmed down.

It was not her fault for being nervous. Back then, there was no one left alive in the King of Medicine’s Valley.

Only the Young Valley Master’s body had not been found, and no one knew if she was dead or alive.

If the Young Valley Master had really come to find them, their bodies were drugged with the King of Medicine’s Valley’s secret medicine. If they met the Young Valley Master, they would definitely die.

Now, they could only detoxify the poison by finding the Nine-turning Needle Manual.

Their hearts became more and more anxious towards the Nine-turning Needle Manual.

Mei Jiang looked at Gu An and said, “Let’s continue this business. The Nine-turning Needle Manual in exchange for a thousand-year-old Ganoderma.”

Gu An put down the teacup in her hand and said, “Okay, I’ve brought the Nine-turning Needle Manual. Where’s the Ganoderma?”

Mei Jiang said warily, “I want to check the goods first. As long as the needle manual is real, the Ganoderma will be delivered immediately.”

Gu An nodded and took out a book from her chest.

It looked very old, and the edges of the book had already turned yellow.

The big and bold words ‘Nine-turning Needle Manual’ were written on the cover of the book.

Su Yan looked at the book in Gu An’s hand and frowned, thinking that she had seen it somewhere before.

A hint of fanaticism flashed in Mei Jiang’s eyes.

This was it.

With the Nine-turning Needle Manual, they would be saved.

On top of that, the Nine-turning Needle Manual was the emblem of the King of Medicine’s Valley. After this, they would be the legitimate King of Medicine’s Valley.

They wouldn’t have to hide anymore.

When Mei Jiang reached out her hand, Gu An put away the needle manual.

Looking at Mei Jiang, she said: “Since you have verified the authenticity of the Nine-turning Needle Manual, where’s the Ganoderma?”

Mei Jiang retracted her hand which was unsuccessful in snatching the needle manual without a trace of embarrassment.

She lightly clapped her hands a few times.

Immediately, they heard the window suddenly shake a little.

Then, it was opened by someone outside, and a black-faced man jumped in from the window.
