Because Aunt Ye was here, Old Man Bai did not elaborate on this person who was about to die soon.

Although Aunt Ye and Zheng Fa are already considered a cooperative relationship.

But the three of them still consciously had reservations about her - they tried not to mention matters related to cultivating immortals when Aunt Ye was present.

This is true even for Tang Lingwu.

As we drove into the middle of the night, Aunt Ye's expression gradually became tired, and the muscles on his face became a little stiff.

Zheng Fa knows that this is because fatigue has made her condition relapse a bit.

Tang Lingwu on the side also looked a little nervous.

"Shall I press it for you?"

Zheng Fa asked softly.

Aunt Ye's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.

Tang Lingwu glanced at the driver in front of him, stood up, and leaned over to look at his mother.

To outsiders, she seemed to be observing the state of Aunt Ye, but in fact she was trying to block Zheng Fa from the driver in front of her.

Zheng Fa stretched out his hand and gently kneaded Aunt Ye's shoulders and neck twice, and Nourishing Spirit Talisman shot from his fingertips into the back of Aunt Ye's head.

When Tang Lingwu sat down again, the driver in the rearview mirror could only see Aunt Ye sleeping soundly.

There is also Old Man Bai who is looking eagerly at Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa ignored Old Man Bai's longing gaze.

It's not that Zheng Fa is stingy, but in modern times each Origin Talisman has only three chances to be used. If too much Origin Talisman Dao Foundation condensed in the body is used, it will collapse.

By the time we reached the first suitable mountain range, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

It's hard to go up the mountain when it's dark.

A few people simply found a hotel at the foot of the mountain to stay.

At dawn the next day, the four of them got up and walked up the mountain under the leadership of the driver.

Only then did Zheng Fa know that the driver last night was from the inspection team, specially invited by Aunt Ye.

It was late spring at this time, and the scenery on the mountain was just right.

A few people were walking on the mountain road, and the mountain breeze blowing on their faces made the sleepiness of the night's journey dissipate a lot.

On the mountain trail, you can occasionally encounter climbers wearing outdoor sportswear.

The driver who led the way explained as he walked, "The scenery of this mountain is also famous in Capital City. It is easy to drive here. Many outdoor enthusiasts like to come here to play - it is just right to build a Nursing Home."

It can be heard that he recommended building Nursing Home on this mountain.

Walking to the top of the mountain, Zheng Fa's eyes flashed with silver light as he looked down the mountain.

After a while, Zheng Fa nodded, but just said, "Go to another mountain and have a look."

The traffic in the other mountain was not so developed. They drove from the highway to the provincial highway, and then passed through a country road before arriving here.

"There's not much to say about this place..." the driver said in a somewhat disgusted tone, "This mountain belongs to the village collective and is a bit remote... probably not many people are willing to come here to retire."

Zheng Fa looked thoughtful.

Wait until we get back to the hotel.

Old Chen They probably took other students to visit Capital University.

Zheng Fa There is no one in the room.

Four people were sitting in the room.

Tang Lingwu The three of them all set their eyes on Zheng Fa's head, wanting to hear his thoughts.

"Both places are suitable." Zheng Fa said first, "What needs to be considered are other aspects."

There are about ten types of Spirit Vein in <Spirit Vein Treatise>, and these two mountain ranges happen to fit two of them respectively. From the perspective of cultivating <Spirit Mountain Method>, there is not much difference between the two places.

He turned to look at Aunt Ye: "Auntie, what's your opinion?"

Aunt Ye thought for a while before speaking, "In terms of cost, the difference is not that big - the contract approval in the first place will be more troublesome, but the transportation cost in the second place will also be a little higher."

"How you choose between these two places depends on how you plan for the future."

Zheng Fa nodded slightly, looked at Aunt Ye, and motioned for her to continue.

"The first place is close to the scenic spot, and there are some villa areas nearby." Aunt Ye paused and said, "If Zheng Fa you want to make friends with some big shots, or become someone's guest, then the first one is better."

"The second one is quieter."

"Which one you choose depends on what you want to do."

Zheng Fa was silent for a moment. He knew that this was Aunt Ye's test of himself.

Looking at Zheng Fa who was silent, Aunt Ye seemed to know that he needed to be given some time to make a decision.

She walked towards the door, turned to Tang Lingwu and nodded, motioning for her daughter to follow.

As a result, Tang Lingwu's eyes fell on Zheng Fa's face and he didn't see her movements at all.

Aunt Ye looked at his daughter's fixed eyes, shook his head helplessly, and gently closed the door for the three of them.

"What do you two think?"

Zheng Fa asked Tang Lingwu two people.

Old Man Bai smacked his lips and spoke, "Choose the first one! The miracle doctor came down from the mountain and shocked Capital City with his medical skills! Lineage Turning his hands to make clouds and turning his hands to make rain!"

"..."

Why does this old man feel that his taste in reading is getting worse and worse?

Tang Lingwu on the side curled his lips, seeming to disagree, but facing Zheng Fa's gaze, he still shook his head and said, "I listen to you."

Zheng Fa shook his head.

He looked out the window and suddenly said:

"Aunt Ye's words gave me some reminders. Since Nursing Home is going to be established, I think there are some principles that need to be explained. Let's take a look."

Old Man Bai and Tang Lingwu looked at each other and listened quietly to Zheng Fa's words.

"First, don't pretend to be a ghost. Although it's hard to explain the matter of cultivating immortals, if someone comes and asks us to treat them, we will treat them. Just pretend, and treat yourself as an ordinary sanatorium on weekdays."

Old Man Bai After hearing this, the two of them also understood that Zheng Fa actually already had a choice.

"Second, do not pursue worldly power, and do not fear power but do not please it either."

"Third, I hope that Nursing Home will be a relatively pure research institution, whether it is treating people's diseases or developing agriculture, just to maintain the operation and research of Nursing Home."

Zheng Fa's voice was very soft, but the more he spoke, the firmer he became.

For him, modern fame and fortune are almost useless - he simply cannot bring modern supplies to the Xuanwei Realm.

At least it is of no use in cultivating immortality.

What is useful is the various talents and knowledge that modern science can provide.

Now through cultivating immortality, he has come into contact with wealth that was far away from him before, and there may be more in the future.

But he himself always knew what he wanted.

After saying this, he looked at Old Man Bai.

These three sentences are, on the one hand, the thoughts of Zheng Fa.

On the one hand, it is actually a requirement for the two of them - especially Old Man Bai who likes to think wildly.

Old Man Bai not only did not show a frustrated look on his face, but instead looked like he was relieved, and muttered, "I'm still thinking about it. Those lackeys in those books seem to have brains... I can't act either!"

"..."

Have you even found your own role?

Tang Lingwu on the side...

Um, this girl seems to agree with whatever Zheng Fa says now.

Xuanwei Realm.

It's the release day of <Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian> again.

Zheng Fa, Senior Sister Zhang, and Senior Sister Yuan stood in the small steward building of Marketplace, watching Jieyin Ship slowly fall into the pier in the sky.

Before Jieyin Ship could stop, a group of people surged out and ran towards the theater.

Zheng Fa saw Han Qi and the three people getting off the boat, and as if something happened, they walked straight towards the small building.

"Junior Brother Zheng... our Jieyin Ship is a bit insufficient." The first words said by Zheng Fa and Han Qi made him a little stunned.

"Not enough?"

"Yes." Han Qi's eyes flashed with excitement. "After the last screening of <Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian>, some outside monks watched it... After they returned to the sect, there were too many people who wanted to come to our Nine Mountains Sect this time!"

Zheng Fa looked at the flow of people rushing towards the theater.

This is the beginning of the reputation of <Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian>.

Xuanwei Realm has no publicity channels, but foreign monks who have watched "Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian" have become the source of this drama.

Although there were not many foreign monks who saw <Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian> last time, the sources were also very mixed. They returned to various major Marketplaces and sects, and passed them on to hundreds of people, and now they are having results.

"We originally planned to go to three sects and two Marketplace this time, but after leaving one sect, the boat was almost full..." Han Qi said somewhat helplessly, "When we went to other places, there were still people who were willing to pay to board the boat."

"..."

The capacity of Jieyin Ship sent by the Nine Mountains Sect is not large, and it can only accommodate up to three hundred monks.

Before <Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian> was released, Jieyin Ship could only bring about a hundred monks every time.

Sometimes it's not even half full.

This time it was so hot.

"Junior brother Zheng, take a look... should we send a few more Jieyin Ship?" Han Qi suggested.

Hearing this, Zheng Fa glanced at Senior Sister Zhang and said to Han Qi, "Let's discuss this matter. You've had a hard journey, so go back and rest first."

Hearing what he said, Han Qi cupped his hands towards the three of them and exited the small building.

Senior Sister Zhang didn't say anything, just leaned against the window.

The monks who came down from Jieyin Ship probably had nothing to do after buying tickets in the theater. In order to kill time, they could only wander around Marketplace.

As the saying goes - it's coming.

And the monks who are willing to spend money to see <Saving Little Cultivator Pang Qian> are more willing to spend than those foreign monks before--

After all, the previous group of monks were greedy for the cheap Nine Mountains Sect talisman and added Jieyin Ship for free.

But this group of monks are people who are willing to pay a relatively high price to watch a drama.

We are the same people, but their consumption concepts are different, and the benefits they bring to Nine Mountains Sect Market are completely different.

Looking at the lively Marketplace downstairs, Senior Sister Zhang nodded gently towards Zheng Fa: "Junior brother Zheng, you did a good job in the drama..."

"Senior sister, we Nine Mountains Sect will be richer in the future."

Zheng Fa said suddenly.

"Huh?"

"If you want to study anything in the future, you won't need the resources within Huazong."

This sentence made Senior Sister Zhang silent for a long time.

Zheng Fa continued, "Nine Mountains Sect has insufficient resources. Let's just earn external resources. In this way, Uncle-Master Pang won't mind."

"... Junior Brother Zheng, I suddenly realized that I still have something to deal with."

After another long silence, Senior Sister Zhang spoke to Zheng Fa, with nothing unusual on his face.

"Congratulations, senior sister."

Senior Sister Zhang and Senior Sister Yuan landed in the backyard of their home. They seemed to be stunned and just stared at the waterfall falling from the mountain without saying anything.

"Senior sister, you can laugh if you want." Senior Sister Yuan sighed, looked at Senior Sister Zhang and said, "Your mouth is so curled up."
