"In that case, there is indeed something you can do to help me."

Mo Jiang pondered for a moment, then took out several more bottles of medicine and asked you to put them in your bag. "If you see the Butterfly Valley Physician, give him these bottles of medicine. The effects are already labeled on the bottles. Just say..."

Mo Jiang's lips curled into a mischievous smile. "Just say this is a challenge, and let the Butterfly Valley Physician couple try to decipher my prescription."

Contacting the Butterfly Valley Physician couple was also one of Mo Jiang's plans, after all, they were extremely rare medical professionals.

However, the Butterfly Valley Physician couple had eccentric temperaments, and it was impossible to get along with them in an ordinary way. Making friends through medicine was the most suitable way to approach them.

This is challenging their area of ​​expertise. Given the temperament of the Butterfly Valley Healer and his wife, once they are certain that they have no connection with Granny Golden Flower, they will absolutely not back down or avoid the fight on this issue.

……

After Chang Yuchun left, Mo Jiang looked at Zhou Zhiruo, who was playing with the puppy with Zhang Wuji, and asked Zhang Sanfeng, "Master Zhang, shall we go back to Wudang Mountain first?"

Zhang Sanfeng nodded. The straight-line distance to Kunlun Mountain was 1,500 kilometers, and according to the roads at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the actual route was probably more than 2,000 kilometers.

At the same time, there was no way to place Zhang Wuji on Wudang Mountain so that Mo Jiang and Zhang Sanfeng could retrieve the Nine Yang Manual before he could cultivate it.

Zhang Wuji's cold poison is currently being suppressed entirely by Mo Jiang's marigold medicine. Once the medicine is stopped, he may not be able to last more than three months.

To take Zhang Wuji on a 2,000-kilometer trip, there are quite a few things to prepare.

Incidentally, Zhou Zhiruo also needs to be taken care of by someone.

After receiving confirmation from Zhang Sanfeng, Mo Jiang left with a "wait a moment" message and disappeared without a trace.

After a while, Mo Jiang came out pushing a three-wheeled motorcycle. It was fuel-powered, had five wheels and a double roof, and a large frame measuring 1.5 meters by 2.8 meters. Its top speed was 60 kilometers per hour.

"Come on, sit here, it's much faster than riding a donkey."

Zhang Sanfeng carefully observed the wheels of the three-wheeled motorcycle, and then looked at the frame behind it, which was large enough to seat many people. He thought to himself that this must be some kind of horse-drawn carriage.

But they didn't see any horses ahead.

"This is……"

"You mean the wooden ox and flowing horse invented by Zhuge Liang? They're similar, but it's complicated to explain in detail."

The three-wheeled motorcycle was chosen by Mo Jiang because Zhang Wuji was too weak to ride a horse, but still needed to reach Kunlun Mountain as soon as possible.

As for modern items attracting the attention of others, with Zhang Sanfeng's endorsement, Mo Jiang was too lazy to hide anything.

After checking the motorcycle and finding no danger, Zhang Sanfeng led the two children onto the frame, where several cushions and stools were placed for them to sit on.

"Hold on to whatever you're holding onto, so you don't fall."

As he spoke, Mo Jiang started the three-wheeled motorcycle. The sudden vibration and noise startled the two children, and then they felt a strong wind rushing towards them.

The official road in this area is relatively well-maintained, allowing three-wheeled motorcycles to pass quickly.

Zhang Sanfeng held the two children to prevent them from falling, while also observing the motorcycle with curious eyes. With his experience, he could naturally tell that Mo Jiang was no ordinary person.

However, since Mo Jiang did not appear to be a wicked person along the way, Zhang Sanfeng tacitly refrained from investigating further.

After all, everyone has secrets in the world, and as long as they don't harm others, there's no need to delve too deeply into them.

The three-wheeled motorcycle had much better shock absorption than the horse-drawn carriages of the Yuan Dynasty, and its fuel-powered engine didn't require rest, so it returned to Wudang Mountain in just a few days.

The group did not stay on Wudang Mountain for long. The next day, Mo Jiang, Zhang Sanfeng, and Zhang Wuji set off again, leaving only Zhou Zhiruo temporarily behind at the Wudang Sect, standing in place and waving to the departing three.

Since it was only one night, they hadn't prepared much, mainly clothes. Mo Jiang directly said they didn't need anything, and he could provide it.

Therefore, all Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji carried were the Wudang Sect's own wound medicine and the silver they would use for expenses along the way.

Twenty days later...

The three of them had arrived at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. For the past twenty days, while ensuring that Zhang Wuji's condition would not worsen, the three of them had been traveling at full speed, running almost 100 kilometers every day.

If it was a normal road, they would drive the three-wheeled motorcycle at full speed. If the road was blocked, they would return the three-wheeled motorcycle to the warehouse, and then Mo Jiang and Zhang Sanfeng would take turns carrying Zhang Wuji on their backs to continue their journey.

After his mental strength broke through to level 2.0, Mo Jiang was able to refine ordinary-grade Salvation Dry Wine, and the breakthrough in quality also improved its effects.

The effect of the normal level of the Salvation Wine is that it no longer restricts the doors of buildings. As long as Mo Jiang builds a door out of wood in the wild, he can open a passage to travel back and forth.

Of course, a bottle of Salvation Dry Wine can only be effective once.

The effects of the ordinary quality Salvation Wine are greatly enhanced. Mo Jiang suspects that if the Salvation Wine reaches the extraordinary level, it might directly become a [Return Scroll], opening a portal directly in front of him.

"Let's find a place to rest. Tomorrow, I'll ask around for the location of Xia Zhu Wu Lian Huan Zhuang. I'll go and bring some food over."

Twenty days of travel had left Mo Jiang looking tired.

As for Zhang Wuji, he was the one who suffered the most from the cold poison, but he didn't say a word the whole way and forced himself to persevere.

If it weren't for Zhang Wuji's cold poison, and the uncertainty of whether traveling to another world would have affected him, Mo Jiang would have kept Zhang Wuji in the modern warehouse until he and Zhang Sanfeng arrived at Kunlun before bringing him over.

The three of them found an open space and pitched their tent. Mo Jiang then set up a door, poured the Salvation Wine on it, and left.

Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji, dressed in well-fitting down jackets, stood guard beside the constructed door to ensure it wouldn't be damaged.

This wooden door is the carrier of coordinates. If it is destroyed, then Mo Jiang will have to start his journey again from the woodshed of Sihai Baoxing.

During their nearly month-long stay together, Zhang Wuji and Zhang Sanfeng, grandfather and grandson, both learned about the peculiarities of Mojiang.

Mo Jiang did not deliberately avoid them, and the two grandfathers and grandsons did not ask them anything.

Before long, Mojiang brought steaming hot Russian-style thick meat soup in a small cart.

Ever since he made this dish once, he has developed a great fondness for dishes where you don't have to worry about anything, just throw in meat and spices and cook them.

Firstly, the high calorie content is enough to fill him up, and secondly, the procedures are simple and don't require too much trouble.

In the Kunlun Mountains, the weather is perfect for a steaming bowl of meat soup.

42. A hunting dog on the left, a golden eagle on the right.

In a town at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains, Mo Jiang was planning to inquire about the location of Zhu Wu Lianhuan Village.

Zhu Wu Lianhuan Village is not a self-sufficient paradise; it must eventually engage in trade and contact with the outside world.

Once the location of Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor is determined, the area where the Nine Yang Manual is located will be greatly narrowed down.

This is the shop most likely to know the location of Zhu Wu's Lianhuan Manor...

Cloth shop!

Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor may be a manor-type economy, with its own land to collect rent, but it has to go out to buy cloth.

If the fabric could be self-sufficient, it would at least be a large manor, while the Zhu-Wu Lianhuan Manor is just the Zhu and Wu families living together.

With limited sphere of influence, it was impossible to achieve self-sufficiency in cloth.

The next place to inquire is the mid-to-high-end cloth shops in town.

However, it was not easy to get information about Zhu Wu Lianhuanzhuang out of the cloth shop. In any era, casually revealing customer information was a taboo.

"Brother Mo, Brother Mo, Brother Mo Jiang!"

As he was pondering this, Mo Jiang suddenly heard someone calling his name. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw that it was someone he knew.

"Brother Wanji, what are you doing here?"

The person who appeared here was Wanji, the partner of Mojiang and the owner of Sihai Baohang.

"With the opening of trade routes, the Kunlun Sect has just placed a large order for Taisu Frost Sugar."

Judging from the smile on Wanji's face, he had clearly placed a large order.

The Kunlun region is located in a cold area, with the Kunlun Mountains covered in snow all year round. In this environment, there is indeed a demand for sugar.

It provides heat and secretes dopamine to prevent the effects of year-round snow on mental health.

"By the way, Brother Mo, come with me, I have something to show you."

As he spoke, Wanji pulled Mojiang aside and then furtively took out... an egg?

The egg is oval-shaped, bluish-gray, with reddish-brown spots and markings.

It doesn't look like a quail egg, nor does it look like a chicken egg; Mo Jiang couldn't figure out exactly what it was.

"This is?"

Wanji looked smug. "Golden eagle eggs. The most famous hunter in the area captured a pair of golden eagles and sent them to the prefect. The hunter was planning to arrange a marriage for his son, but I used a mirror and half a pound of sugar to exchange for the largest egg."

After saying that, he shoved the golden eagle egg into Mo Jiang's hand. "When I saw the hunting dog that Brother Mo brought that day, it was incredibly brave. I suppose we are still missing a fierce bird of prey. This one is a perfect match for Brother Mo."

As a large bird of prey, the golden eagle, with its powerful hunting ability and status as the ruler of the sky, is often associated with the sun in ancient cultures.

As the "King of the Sky," the golden eagle represents the worship of nature deities during the hunting stage of humankind. Together with the tiger, the "King of the Land," it forms a binary system of supreme divine belief, which, combined with sun worship, symbolizes the authority of the highest ruler on earth.

Meanwhile, biologists believe that the golden eagle is the prototype of the Golden-Winged Roc, one of the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge in "Journey to the West".

Mo Jiang looked at the golden eagle egg in his hand and accepted it without any intention of refusing, after all, he did lack aerial combat power.

Even he himself had fantasized about the scene of himself [leading a yellow dog on the left, holding a falcon on the right, wearing a brocade hat and sable coat, with a thousand horsemen sweeping across the plains].

So even though he knew that golden eagles are a Class I protected wild animal in modern times and that he would go to jail if he were discovered, Mo Jiang still kept the golden eagle eggs.

At worst, we won't keep them in modern times.

"Are you in a hurry for that batch of goods from the Kunlun Sect? If so, I can send you a batch right now."

"Brother Mo, you've finally gotten the goods? That's wonderful! This will surely make Sihai Baoxing a household name."

Logistics speed is also a key factor in evaluating a business's reputation. Mo Jiang asked Wan Ji to wait a moment, and soon returned with several boxes of white sugar and a few bolts of cloth.

"Here you go, fifty catties of sugar should last for a while. You'll have to figure out the packaging and stuff yourself. Also, here's some fabric; see which ones are suitable to sell."

After acquiring the golden eagle egg, Mo Jiang plans to upgrade his investment in Wanji to a higher level.

Because he discovered that Wanji's acquisition of the Broken Sword Yaoguang was not merely due to good luck; Wanji genuinely possessed special channels for goods and was able to establish connections.

Increasing investment in Wanji would allow him to access more and higher-level people, thereby providing Mojiang with a variety of rare and precious items from around the world through these channels.

"I've been having someone make the packaging for Sihai Baoxing these past few days. The prefectural government should like this fabric."

Upon seeing the new goods brought by Mojiang, Wanji didn't care where they came from at all, and immediately made an estimate of these fabrics that he had never seen before.

He has completely devoted himself to the goal of making Sihai Baoxing open all over the world. When people are focused on their own things, they will not pay much attention to other things.

"Keep an eye out for the whereabouts of the Broken Swords when you have time. It would be best if you could acquire them." Mo Jiang remembered that after all seven Broken Swords were collected, their reputation was no less than that of the Heaven Sword.

In the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber are considered top-tier (T0) weapons, and the entire world is even named after these two weapons.

Once the Broken Sword is fully assembled, it will be at least a T0.5 level weapon like the Sacred Flame Token.

As he was speaking, Mo Jiang suddenly remembered that he had gone out to gather information, so he immediately asked, "By the way, are you familiar with Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor?"

"The estates of the Zhu and Wu families? They're local notables, I know them."

Wanji pointed to the white sugar that Mojiang brought back, "A while ago, the people from the village asked me to buy sugar and mirrors. I sold two mirrors, but unfortunately, we didn't have enough sugar at the time, so we only placed an order."

Upon hearing the news of Zhu Wu's Lianhuan Manor, Mo Jiang immediately made a decision: "I will provide whatever sugar and mirrors he wants. You just need to find a way to deliver them to the manor and take me to the outskirts of the manor while you're at it."

Mo Jiang only needs to know where Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor is, and use the manor as a coordinate point to search for the cliff platform that Zhang Wuji jumped off in the original novel.

As for Zhuangzi himself and the people within him, he had absolutely no interest in getting to know them.

"Zhuangzi's men left just two days ago; it should take about a day to get there from here."

Wanji didn't ask Mojiang what he wanted to do. After learning that Zhu Wulianzhuang's order could be fulfilled, he agreed without the slightest hesitation.

As for Mo Jiang's approach to Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor, Wan Ji didn't care at all, and didn't even realize that there was anything wrong with it.

Wanji only wants Sihai Baohang to spread all over the world; nothing else matters.

An hour later, Wanji, carrying freshly repackaged sugar and a mirror, set off with Mojiang and his group.

Upon arriving near Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor, Wanji walked straight to the manor and loudly called out the manager's name, attempting to complete the previous order.

Mo Jiang then took out a drone from a distance and, while adjusting it, said, "Master Zhang, please keep an eye on your surroundings and warn me if anyone gets close."

"Also, if my partner cries for help, please lend a hand."

One should always be wary of others. Mo Jiang was still somewhat worried that the people from Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor might be tempted to do something risk-free because of the value of the sugar and the mirror.

In chaotic times, there are instances of manors turning into bandits.

So he made a pact with Wanji that if he sensed anything was wrong, he would immediately call for help.
