Chapter 242 Inexplicable Trust

Chapter 242 Inexplicable Trust

Taking a porcelain bowl, Qin Chuan put all the herbs in the porcelain bowl, and then soaked it in the mouth of the fountain of youth.

After soaking for a full 3 minutes, Qin Chuan took out the water and medicinal materials.

The stone stove next to it had already been lit. Qin Chuan put the porcelain bowl on it and said, "Water needs to be added every half an hour, three times in total, call me after three times."

The girl nodded, and then stood by the fire over there.

At this moment, the old patriarch completely believed in Qin Chuan. When he saw Qin Chuan coming, he pointed to the fountain of youth and said, "Do you know how many years this spring has existed?"

"do not know."

"When we moved here from our clan, this spring has existed for more than 300 years, and the time may be longer." The old patriarch said.

"It's been so long?" Qin Chuan didn't expect that this spring would have a history of more than 300 years.

"Besides, our whole clan relies on this spring water to live, so this spring is very important to our clan, and no one else can touch it." The old patriarch said.

"But this spring is so big, it not only feeds you, but also feeds the villagers in Qingshan Town." Qin Chuan said.

"That's right, it was a gift from the spring water, but those people didn't want to be grateful, and instead came up with the idea of ​​this spring. Since the year before last, some people have gone up the mountain to find this spring, and they have hurt several people in our clan. , I know that those people are here to occupy this spring." The old patriarch said.

"There's so much spring water, it's a waste if you don't drink it. It's not too much for those people to sell it for some money. Are you always too old-fashioned?" Qin Chuan asked rhetorically.

"Is it old-fashioned? I don't think that copper coins will only pollute this spring and Daqingshan." The old patriarch murmured.

"Old patriarch, you are worried that because the people in the clan have money, you will leave this big green mountain." Qin Chuan guessed.

"The things left by our ancestors cannot be discarded, especially Daqingshan. Daqingshan has nurtured us for so many years, we should stay here." The old patriarch said.

Obviously, Qin Chuan guessed right, the old patriarch was worried about this.

"You are right, but the times are different now, the outside world is more exciting, there is no war, and people are enjoying that kind of peace. Are you being too selfish in doing this?" Qin Chuan said.

"Are you selfish? I think it's okay. I'm doing it for them. Money is something outside of me, and it's also an ominous thing. Over the years, the bloody facts have been in my eyes, so I absolutely can't let this kind of disaster enter me." Within the clan." The old patriarch said very stubbornly.

"You can block people, but can you keep people's hearts? Haven't you felt that you were poisoned? Moreover, those people below are rich and powerful. Your persistence is useless at all." Qin Chuan said .

"Haha, I'm old, and I can't even talk to you young people. I know who poisoned you." The old patriarch said.

"You know?" Qin Chuan was a little puzzled.

Since the old patriarch knew who poisoned it, why didn't he stop it.

"I'm not old-fashioned, but I just can't bear to let these people join the huge society. We have been isolated from the world for too long, and the people outside are philistine and treacherous. My people will never be their opponents, they will only be counted. Being bullied." The old patriarch said.

Qin Chuan was silent, which he admitted.

The society may have been chaotic in the past, but people’s hearts have not changed. In this era, the idea of ​​money first has changed many people. The old patriarch’s worries are not unreasonable.

"I know those people below will not give up this fountain of youth, but I hope to do my best to do a little bit for these men, women, old and young in the clan, but I didn't expect that someone here has a crooked mind , want to kill me, and then take all the clansmen away from Daqingshan." The old patriarch murmured.

Qin Chuan felt that he was a bit stupid at the moment. He originally wanted to persuade the old patriarch, but who would have thought that the old patriarch knew everything, even many fringe things, the old man had thought of it.

"People, the more you live, the more afraid you are. It's not that you're afraid of death, but that you're afraid of losing the person in front of you. I'm the same, kid Qin, can you promise me one thing?" The old patriarch coughed, looked at Qin Chuan and said .

"You say."

"My poison doesn't need to be detoxified, and I don't need it. When I don't want to live, I can't accept watching them walk out of Daqingshan." The old patriarch said solemnly.

"But you can't stop them anyway, they will go out sooner or later." Qin Chuan said.

"That's their business, at least I don't want to see it, and let me tell you, the spring water of this fountain of youth can be sold, but only after I die." The old patriarch said.

"Don't worry, as long as you are willing, I will definitely get everything right. If someone doesn't want to leave Daqingshan, I will send someone to send things up. They just need to enjoy life." Qin Chuan said solemnly with.

"No need, my clan has its own way of life. I just hope that if something happens to the clan, you can help to solve it. After all, they are the ones I worry about the most," said the old patriarch.

"You trust me so much?" Qin Chuan didn't expect the old patriarch to give him such a task.

"Of course I believe it, because you are already a grandmaster. If this kind of person can't be trusted, who else can I trust?" The old patriarch smiled, and the wrinkles on his face were also opened at this moment, like a shriveled chrysanthemum.

"Grandmaster?" Qin Chuan secretly said in his heart.

"I know your ability, I can tell from the fact that you can knock my son away with one elbow, you are a person with real ability, and you diagnosed me before, I can see that you are not a bad person, and you have The demeanor of a generation of masters." The old patriarch stood up after speaking.

"When I was young, I got a boxing book by accident, so I can be regarded as a person in the martial arts world." The old patriarch said and gave Qin Chuan a fist.

Seeing this gesture, Qin Chuan subconsciously bowed back.

These are all things inherited by the system, Qin Chuan naturally knows.

It's just that the old patriarch may not know that the so-called martial arts has long since disappeared, and his generation of masters is also the strength given by the system.

However, Qin Chuan didn't tell the truth. To be honest, he still enjoys this conversation a little bit at the moment.

At this moment, the girl ran over to fetch water.

The girl knelt in front of the fountain of youth, made a gesture respectfully, and then slowly stretched a wooden barrel into it.

The whole movement was very careful, as if it was filled with gold instead of water.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan had a better understanding of the mentality of the old patriarch.
