The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 468 Asking Master to Help the Ying Family Once

There is a secret room in the Ying Mansion, and what is hidden inside is not gold, silver or jewelry, but the most proud works of craftsmen of all generations.

There are the most exquisite jewellery, large and small objects with various mechanisms, imaginative tables, chairs and beds, as well as small and exquisite locks that are said to be the most difficult to open in the world.

Skilled craftsmen are not only good at making jewelry, the Ying family focuses on ingenuity. Many things in the world were created by the Ying family, and many mechanical devices were also arranged by the Ying family. Even the mechanical devices in the imperial palace and the imperial mausoleum were contributed by the Ying family.

So the things in the Ying family's secret room may seem not as valuable as gold, silver, and jewelry, but any one of them taken out can cause a sensation and become something people will fight over.

Every member of the Ying family has begun to conceive the future work that will represent his life since the day he learned his craft, just like every emperor begins to build his own mausoleum the moment he ascends the throne.

In their minds, if their works can enter the secret room of the Ying family, it is the most glorious moment of their lives. In addition to the works of the head of the family, which will definitely be kept in the secret room, the works of other family members will also be kept in the secret room as long as they can make things that are recognized by the family.

They have been working towards this goal all their lives, and at the same time have devoted all their family strength to protecting the Ying family's secret room.

The secret room must have a mechanism, which was also created by the Ying family. Each head of the family would personally set up a mechanism before his death that only the next head of the family could unlock. Ying Peng also went there, and after setting up the mechanism, he passed the method to unlock it to Ying Nantian. But no one expected that after more than two hours, the secret room would actually have problems and start self-destruction.

The self-destruction was originally designed for protection. When the Ying family was in great trouble, everything in the secret room would be destroyed to ensure that those things would not fall into the hands of thieves. But now the Ying family was only in a great mourning, not a great disaster, so why did the self-destruction start?

Ying Nantian immediately ran towards the secret room, and other tribesmen followed him, causing chaos in the mourning hall.

Ye Wenyan took advantage of the chaos to grab the person who came to deliver the message and asked, "Why did the mechanism self-destruct? Did someone break in?"

The man shook his head. "No one broke in and no accidents happened. It just suddenly made a noise. It's all my fault. I didn't take the owner's words seriously and didn't say anything. It's all my fault!" He was very upset and kept hitting his head.

Ye Wenyan supported his arm and quietly sent a calming spell to him. The man immediately calmed down and continued, "The master had been sitting in the secret room before he died. He said he wanted to take one last look at the Ying family treasure and that he wanted to see something very important. He was not in a good condition at the time, so I supported him and opened a box according to his request. But the box was empty."

He looked puzzled. "When the master saw that it was an empty box, he became anxious and said something was wrong, someone had been in the secret room and the things were taken away. Then there were a few noises from the bottom of the box, and the master said something was wrong, the self-destruct mechanism was about to be activated, and asked me to quickly notify the clan members to come in and move the things. But before I left, the master died and took his last breath. Later, the family was busy preparing for a funeral, and I didn't have time to say anything. After the hustle and bustle, I found that there was no noise in the secret room. I thought that the master might not be in his right mind before he died, so he said that, because no one except the master of the family could enter the secret room of the Ying family. This was my first time entering, and the master took me in. All the mechanisms were operated by the master, and there was no way I could go in a second time."

He spoke clearly, and Ye Wenyan roughly understood.

Something was lost in the secret room of the Ying family, and Ying Peng also found that the self-destruct mechanism was about to be activated, but he died before Ying Nantian and the others arrived. And for some reason, the self-destruct mechanism did not start immediately, but after a few hours, which made the people guarding the secret room make a wrong judgment and did not report it in time. Now the mechanism should have made a sound again, so he came to report it.

"Are you Miss Ye Si? I have met you before. Thank you for coming to pay homage to the old patriarch. Please sit here for a while, I still have to go to the secret room." After the tribesman said this, he turned around and ran away.

Ye Wenyan pulled him, thought for a moment, and said, "Don't tell the tribe members about the things lost in the secret room for now."

The man was stunned for a moment, but still nodded.

Only Ye Wenyan, Ji Rong and Zhuier were left in the mourning hall. Ye Wenyan walked to the brazier, bent down and began to pick up the paper money that had been scattered on the ground in a hurry. Zhuier and Ji Rong followed suit and Zhuier said as she picked up the paper money: "It seems that in the hearts of the Ying family, the head of the family is not as important as the secret room. The head of the family is still here, the fire in the brazier is not extinguished, and the incense is not completely burned. They all ran away without leaving anyone. Does this family still have family affection in their hearts? I don't know how much treasure there is in the secret room, and whether it is enough for them to share."

Ji Rong had heard some stories about the Ying family, so she started telling the legend about the Ying family's secret room.

Ye Wenyan threw paper money into the brazier while listening. When Ying Nantian came back with the Ying family, she had already lit new incense and said to the Ying family, "I'm so sorry for disturbing your incense again. It's really because there was no one left in the mourning hall, and it would be taboo if the incense of the deceased was cut off. That's why I was nosy and lit it again. Now that you are back, it's time for me to go. As for your previous condemnation of me, I will pretend that I didn't hear it, and of course I will not exercise the power given to me by Mr. Ying to make any demands on your family. After all, I can see that Mr. Ying doesn't have much weight in your hearts."

She turned around and was about to leave. Ying Nantian became anxious and reached out to grab her sleeve, but was stopped by Ji Rong.

"Master." He begged bitterly, "Master, please help the Ying family. We are wrong. Please help the Ying family." As he spoke, he actually knelt down in front of Ye Wenyan, "The secret room cannot be destroyed. Once it is destroyed, the Ying family will be finished. A family without inheritance is nothing. The Ying family cannot lose that secret room. Please help us, Master."

Ye Wenyan frowned, and when he looked at the Ying family members around him, his frown deepened.

Ying Nantian worshipped her as his master, so it was natural for him to kneel before her. But the others didn't know the truth, and just watched the 32-year-old Ying Peng kneel before a 15- or 16-year-old girl, thinking that the Fourth Miss Ye was bullying others by taking advantage of her power.

Then someone came forward to help him up. It was an old man who looked to be in his fifties. He said, "Nantian, your second uncle is gone. You are the next head of the Ying family. You are of noble status. How can you be so noble as to be a servant girl of no rank or rank? If her grandfather or father were here today, we would have nothing to say if you kneeled before them. A general who died for his country should be bowed to by everyone in the world. But what is her status? If you kneel, how can we put our Ying family's face? Hurry up and get up!"

"Fifth Uncle!" Ying Nantian looked up at the man and said loudly, "Fourth Miss Ye is my master. I kowtowed to her in Qiqiao Pavilion and now I follow her to work outside. I never wanted to be the head of the family. I just wanted to follow my master to learn skills and gain experience for the rest of my life. Fifth Uncle, please understand that it is not shameful for me to kowtow to her. It is only natural for an apprentice to kowtow to his master!"

"Why do you want to take her as your master?" The fifth uncle was so angry that he trembled. "What can she teach you?"

"The method of purifying gold! And the 24-hour clock that Uncle Wu saw in Qiqiao Pavilion, they were all made by Master. I told Uncle Wu a long time ago, but he didn't believe it, so what can I do!" Ying Nantian was also anxious, "At this critical moment for the Ying family, if Uncle Wu doesn't want the secret room to be destroyed, then come with me and ask Master for help. None of us can do anything about the self-destruct mechanism of the secret room, and the only way now is to ask Master for help, so there is a glimmer of hope!"

Uncle Wu still didn't believe it. He kept shaking his head, "She's too young. How could a teenager know how to purify gold? And how could she make a clock like that? Don't flatter her anymore. No matter how pretty she is, she's not worth risking your whole life on! Listen to Uncle Wu, break off your relationship with her, don't go to that jewelry store anymore, and go back to Qiqiao Pavilion. The Qiqiao Pavilion in the palace is where my family should be!"

Ying Nantian was angry and helpless. He simply ignored his uncle and looked up at Ye Wenyan. "Master, please only talk to me. I am the only one begging you to help our Ying family through this crisis." After saying that, he turned around and shouted at all the clansmen, "Kneel down! Apologize for your nonsense! Ask Miss Ye Si to forgive you and help our Ying family this time!"

The Ying family knelt down in confusion, and apologized, but reluctantly. It wasn't that they really felt they were wrong, they were just listening to the head of the family. But if they were asked to beg, they couldn't say it. It was obvious that they had the same idea as Uncle Wu. Ye Wenyan couldn't take care of this matter. The secret room was no longer working and was about to collapse. It would be useless for anyone to go.

"You are really great!" Ying Nantian blushed, "In this case, it doesn't matter whether I am the head of the family or not!" He threw the order of the head of the family directly to his fifth uncle, "I give it back to you, whoever wants to be the head of the family can be the head of the family, just this once, I will never care about the affairs of the Ying family again." After saying that, he looked at Ye Wenyan, "Master, help me this time, just as if you were helping my dead second uncle. Just ask Master to give it a try, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will never return to this family again in the future."

Ye Wenyan was helpless, he stretched out his hand to help Ye Nantian up, then looked at the fifth uncle: "If the horse in the secret room is already dead, why not let me heal it. You just think of me as a miracle doctor, healing a dead horse, let's see if I can bring the dead horse back to life."

Uncle Ying Wu sighed heavily, "Forget it, let's go and see! Anyway, there won't be any worse results."

Ying Nantian was overjoyed when he heard this, and he took Ye Wenyan and ran away. Ji Rong and Zhuier immediately followed, and all the members of the Ying family followed.

Ying Nantian’s determination forced the Ying family to think collectively about a question: If Ye Wenyan really saved the secret room, how should they face this little girl?
