Chapter 759: Chapter 759: Reunion_1 Chapter 759: Chapter 759: Reunion_1 Throughout the journey, Julius Reed’s mind raced.
Was that letter Aron Jackson initially received actually written by himself?
And why did his personal maidservant, Isabella Warm, mysteriously disappear?
Yet the hairpin and small mirror that belonged to Isabella Warm sohow appeared in Stacy Cook’s hands.
But Stacy Cook was dead.
However, Gonzalez City was never short of outsiders.
Granny Xihua sent people to Gonzalez City, and Ivan Reed personally ca to Gonzalez City.
Even himself…
Gonzalez City, what secret does it actually hold?
He took a deep breath, his headache was severe.
Unknowingly, the airplane had already landed at Abernathy province airport.
ƝᴑνǤο.сο
After disembarking, it was already noon.
The three of them hastily had a al and then visited a 4S shop to buy an off-road vehicle again.
The money was provided by Terry Moore.
An unusual generosity.
The road towards dicine King Valley was incredibly rugged, fortunately, Karen was a disciple of dicine King Valley.
But still, they took the wrong path several tis.
Until…
They arrived in front of a large ferry crossing.
Looking from afar, dicine King Valley looked like a gourd-shaped mountain.
Clouds and mist wrapped around the mountain.
Even though it was already afternoon and the sunlight was ample.
At this mont.
A row of people stood on the ferry crossing.
These people were dressed in finery and each was accompanied by bodyguards.
Clearly, they were wealthy rchants headed to dicine King Valley to pay their respects for the New Year.
Many sat on folding chairs with bodyguards holding black umbrellas behind them.
The weather in the south is always oppressive.
Even though it is now spring.
Early spring.
But the unique geographical environnt of dicine King Valley made it sowhat suffocating.
The rchants wore anxious expressions, it seed they had been waiting for quite so ti.
“Is there only this one path?”
Julius Reed pointed to the river in front of them, which was about five hundred ters wide.
The water was very muddy.
“Only this one path!
Otherwise, wouldn’t the threshold of dicine King Valley be trampled down?”
Karen chuckled with a snicker and proudly said, “You don’t know, even the outer disciples of our dicine King Valley, once they go out, they are treated with great reverence.”
“People all fear death.”
Julius Reed looked at the not so calm river surface in the distance and said indifferently, “But sotis, immortality can be very painful.”
Immortality?
Watching one’s friends die one after another would only render a person lonely in the end.
Even…
Callous.
After seeing too many partings and too many deaths.
Emotions, too, would fade away.
“When does the boat co?”
Julius Reed asked again.
It was getting late, but there were still a large number of people standing at the ferry point.
These people were becoming more and more impatient, their eyes constantly scanning the river.
So even couldn’t sit still and started pacing in circles.
“Boat?
What boat?” Karen raised her eyebrows and asked, “Why do you need a boat?”
“To cross the river!”
Julius Reed pointed to the wide river in front of them, “With such a wide expanse of water, how do you cross without a boat?
And these people, aren’t they sitting here waiting for the boat?”
If there were no boat.
Then what were these people waiting for at the ferry point?
“Boat?
You’re underestimating dicine King Valley!”
Karen stood up straight, laughing as she said, “See?
These people always live in luxury, but when they get to dicine King Valley, they beco subservient!”
“Karen, then how do we get across?”
Terry Moore also ca over.
He was equally curious.
“Swim across!”
Karen pointed towards the opposite bank, “Every New Year’s Day, dicine King Valley will send boats to the other side of the river three tis, throwing lifebuoys to these people.
Then they throw a rope across and let these people pull themselves along the rope, slowly swimming over.”
“Damn!
The water is cold!”
Terry Moore couldn’t help but shiver.
It was early spring, and the water wasn’t warm yet.
If you really had to swim across, it would be easy to catch a cold or even get a fever.
Besides, wasn’t this just ridiculous?
Having a boat but not allowing to ride it?
“Karen, you’re just full of hot air!” Terry Moore said with a dismissive laugh as if he had discovered sothing.
“These are all wealthy people.
If you really put them through this tornt, no one would co to dicine King Valley anymore!”
They were all used to the good life, but now these rich rchants were made to swim across like drenched chickens.
Wasn’t that a joke?
It was an insult!
Terry Moore felt his intelligence was insulted.
“Damn it, Terry Moore!”
Karen was about to speak, but Julius Reed interrupted her.
“dicine King Valley wants to dampen these people’s spirits.
Otherwise, how can we make these normally arrogant rchants wait obediently like good little boys?”
A display of power.
The hearts of n.
Though the rchants were extrely anxious, anticipation was always present in their eyes.
Their gaze remained fixed across the river.
That boat…
Why hasn’t it co yet?
Ti ticked away second by second, but Julius Reed was in no rush.
Since everyone had arrived, dicine King Valley would certainly let them in.
Throwing one’s weight around was one thing,
but money still had to be made from these people.
You should know, selling health to these rich rchants was how to keep the money flowing in.
“Hey!
Handso!”
Just as Julius Reed was surveying the terrain of dicine King Valley, he suddenly felt a tap on his back.
Click!
By reflex!
He grabbed the hand and twisted it directly!
“Ouch!”
Following a cry of pain, Julius Reed froze.
It wasn’t soone else behind him; it was Harvey Martin.
“My arm…”
Harvey Martin was on the verge of tears.
“Sorry.”
Julius Reed gave a gentle push.
Click!
The dislocated arm was put back into place.
“Huh!
It doesn’t hurt anymore?”
Harvey Martin tried moving his arm: “Wow, that’s aweso!”
He gave a thumbs up.
“What are you doing here?”
Julius Reed looked at Harvey Martin in the large sunglasses with curiosity.
“Fate!”
Harvey Martin chuckled: “I ca with a friend to dicine King Valley and also wanted to get so dicine for Granny.”
“How about you!”
She took off her sunglasses to reveal her fair little face: “Are you here for dicine too?
If you’d said so, we could have co together.”
Harvey Martin returned from abroad abruptly because Granny’s health was deteriorating.
By coincidence, Garrick Reed’s boyfriend, Alaric Moore, also wanted to procure dicine from dicine King Valley.
So the two made the trip together.
But in her wildest dreams, Harvey Martin never imagined that she would encounter Julius Reed again just a few hours later.
“Harvey, what are you doing?”
While they were chatting,
a man and a woman approached from the rugged path.
“I ran into an acquaintance,”
Harvey Martin waved to Garrick Reed: “The guy who drove this morning.”
It would have been fine not to ntion that,
but as soon as it was brought up, Garrick Reed was filled with anger.
She was abandoned alone on a broken road with neither village in sight nor tavern behind, surrounded by a bunch of thugs.
Half an hour later, Alaric Moore finally drove there,
and had to pay a toll of ten thousand yuan!
She was mad not only at Julius Reed but also at Harvey Martin.
But she concealed it well and did not show her feelings.
“It’s you!”
Garrick Reed’s face darkened, and Alaric Moore’s grip on her hand tightened.
“Garrick, what’s wrong?”
Alaric Moore sensed sothing was off with his girlfriend and asked with concern.
“Ha!”
Garrick Reed scoffed: “This morning, it was these three who left on the muddy path, alone and frightened!”
As she said this, she spoke with a grievance: “Brother Abernathy, you have to stand up for .”
“What!”
Alaric Moore’s expression turned grim, and as he looked at Julius Reed and the others, a nacing glint flashed in his eyes.
