Bai Ningyu looked at the red fruit in her hand, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Red berries are a top-grade spiritual creature that bears fruit once every thousand years. Eating them not only increases one's lifespan by three hundred years, but they are also an important ingredient in many eighth-grade and above elixirs, making them a rare treasure.

Not to mention ordinary people, even if a large clan of cultivators obtains this fruit, they will definitely keep it secret.

I didn't expect those three would actually give one to me. This is extremely rare...

Thinking of Bai Ningyu, she curled the corners of her lips and put the fruit into the space.

At this time, Li Shang, Li Yanchen and Xiao Jing also gathered around.

"Host, thank you very much for this trip to Yumen Mountain. I just contacted my family and they have sent people to wait for us outside the mountain." Li Shang thanked Bai Ningyu.

Li Yanchen then said, "Yes, Miss Bai, when we go back this time, I will definitely take you for a good stroll in Kyoto, so you can relax and thank you for saving my life so many times."

The three of them showed joy on their faces at surviving the disaster, while Li Churan followed behind them silently without saying a word.

Bai Ningyu nodded, and just as the group was about to leave, a familiar figure appeared in front of Bai Ningyu.

It was Lin Hai, the captain of the special department who had met him once before in the case of the missing woman.

When Lin Hai saw Bai Ningyu, he was stunned. Why was she different from the one he had seen before?

Then he instantly understood that Bai Ningyu might have used some disguise method and didn't want others to know her true appearance.

Lin Hai didn't expose her, a hint of joy appeared on his face as he walked up to her and greeted her enthusiastically, "Miss Bai, we met again so soon after our separation in Lingcheng."

Bai Ningyu naturally recognized Lin Hai, the man from Lingcheng's special department. She asked in confusion, "Captain Lin, why are you here?"

Lin Hai didn't hide anything and said with a smile, "The incident at Yumen Mountain this time has become quite serious. The higher-ups have transferred personnel from various branches to take full control of Yumen Mountain. Speaking of which, Miss Bai probably knows more about what's going on here than I do."

"I see." Bai Ningyu understood. Indeed, the events here must have alarmed quite a few people. It would be abnormal if the special department did not take some action.

"Then Miss Bai, we'll see each other later." Lin Hai said with a meaningful smile.

It took the group some time to reach the foot of the mountain, where the people sent by the Li family were already waiting.

The leader was Uncle Yang, who brought a group of people with him.

When Uncle Yang saw Li Shang, tears welled up in his eyes. He hurried forward and asked with concern, "Young Master, how are you? Are you injured? We have a doctor with us. Please get in the car and let the doctor check you out."

"Uncle Yang, I'm fine." Li Shang patted Uncle Yang's shoulder and said comfortingly.

Seeing that Li Shang looked a little tired but didn't look injured, Uncle Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The group got into the car, and Bai Ningyu handed him the storage magic tool that Li Shang had given him earlier: "Here are the spiritual plants and herbs we collected this time."

Bai Ningyu had already put what she needed into her storage space.

Moreover, the spiritual plants and herbs given to her by the Golden Dragon were enough, so Bai Ningyu naturally did not take these things too seriously.

Moreover, they had agreed before that they would get 20% of the proceeds, so she didn't need to worry about these things.

However, Li Shang did not take the storage artifact. Instead, he said, "Miss Bai, we went into the mountains this time thanks to your help. Otherwise, we would have all died in the mountains. How could we have these things?"

"That's right, Miss Bai, just keep these things." Li Yanchen also felt that what Li Shang said made a lot of sense.

Moreover, among the people who entered the mountain this time, I'm afraid that only the four people from the Li family and the leader of the Huo family brought out things from the depths.

These rare spiritual plants and spiritual stones are enough to get the job done.

Although Li Shang said so, Bai Ningyu shook her head and put the thing in Li Shang's hand, indicating that it would be fine to follow the previous agreement. Taking advantage of others also depends on who the target is.

Helplessly, Li Shang had to let Bai Ningyu pick out a few spiritual plants on her own.

At this moment, Bai Ningyu's cell phone suddenly rang.

It was Boss Fan calling.

Bai Ningyu picked up the phone, only to hear Boss Fan on the other end, almost crying with excitement: "Dr. Xiaobai, you finally answered the phone! Something big happened in Lingcheng!"

Bai Ningyu frowned slightly: "Boss Fan, don't be impatient, speak slowly."

Boss Fan then began to recount what happened in Lingcheng City after Bai Ningyu left.

In fact, before Bai Ningyu left, some people in Lingcheng had already developed cold symptoms such as coughing.

However, all hospitals and pharmacies treated this as a common flu, and the medicines prescribed were nothing more than cold medicines.

However, the symptoms of these people did not improve. Instead, there were cases of worsening symptoms and even death today.

This incident attracted great attention, and many medical staff who had contact with patients also began to show symptoms.

However, since Boss Fan had been taking the health-strengthening medicine prescribed by Bai Ningyu, he did not have any abnormal reactions.

So Boss Fan thought about giving the medicine prescribed by Bai Ningyu to those who were sick.

As a result, although the sick people did not get better after taking the medicine, at least their condition did not get worse.

After the relevant departments learned about this, they wanted to requisition Bai Ningyu's prescription for research.

That's why Boss Fan called anxiously to ask Bai Ningyu's opinion, and also asked when Bai Ningyu would be back.

Bai Ningyu immediately agreed upon hearing this and said to Li Shang, "Third Young Master, there's something going on in Lingcheng. Could you please take me to the airport?"

"Miss Bai, are you going back to Lingcheng?" Uncle Yang, who was driving, sounded a little surprised.

Seeing Uncle Yang's tone, Li Shang realized that things were not simple and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong, Uncle Yang? Do you know anything?"

Uncle Yang's face froze, and he said in a serious tone, "Young Master, I heard that an unknown plague has spread in Lingcheng City. It has been blocked off. I also heard that some places have already shown the symptoms of Lingcheng City. I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic..."
