Chapter 208 Colorful Herbs

When the scholar heard this, he was both happy and sad, thinking that if he could collect medicine, his mother's illness would be cured.

But in such a high place, and Lingshan Mountain is in a very distant place, the terrain is very steep, and the height of the mountain is also very steep.

If you go to the top to pick it, you may not be able to come back as soon as you go, and your mother is at home, so who should take care of it?

The scholar thought a lot, but he couldn't think of a better way, and the doctor also persuaded her to let her live a better life while the old man was alive, eat what she should eat, live, buy, and walk on the road with peace of mind.

It's also much better than letting her only son risk his life to collect medicine, and it is possible that she will not be able to collect it back, and when she is dying, there will be no one to bury it, right?

But the scholar didn't want to hide his ears and steal the bell, so he watched his mother lose her vitality little by little, and then finally died of illness on the couch.

So the scholar made a bold decision, he first took a leave from the academy, told his master about the situation at home, and got his master's permission to take a three-month leave.

Then in the first month, he used his ability to sell calligraphy and paintings on the road, like literati and scholars who sold their own paper fans, wrote letters for others, and helped people do their homework.

In this way, he made a lot of money, and then specially invited the neighbor's fat sister-in-law to take care of his mother for two months, and then he prepared his bags, left enough food and medicine, and then confessed to his mother, and it rained heavily overnight, just like Lingshan rushed.

It is rumored that this spiritual mountain is the colorful stone used by Nuwa Niangniang to mend the sky, and the place where the colorful stone is obtained is this spiritual mountain.

But after Nuwa Niangniang took away the colorful stone, this spiritual mountain was sucked away at once, and all the spiritual energy became very barbaric.

And there is no way to live on the side of the mountain near here, and all the villages have been forced to relocate, because I heard that after the spirit contract was transferred, it was full of demonic energy and demonic energy, and this was a good place for monsters and self-cultivation and transformation.

Therefore, the villagers in this nearby village, their chickens, ducks, and some livestock are often eaten at night, and there are no bones left.

Therefore, there is not a single family within a radius of ten miles near Lingshan, because they are afraid that those monster mountain spirits will really cultivate into human form day after day, and after the Love City Avenue, they will take the lives of these villagers.

So the villages around here were wiped out decades ago.

There are no people on this roadside, not even an inn, and there is no tea visit.

So when he rode a little donkey to this radius of ten miles, the little donkey completely fainted because of the water and soil.

The scholar could only carry his backpack, hold a water bottle, and then carry two large sticks, and climb forward step by step.

In his backpack is the shape of a medicinal herb described to him by the doctor, and this herb is called Colorful Herbs?

This colorful herb is exactly the same as ordinary herbs during the day, and only when the moon rises at night under the light of the moon, this herb will emit colorful light, so it is called the Seven Herbs.

And the effect of the Seven Herbs is to suddenly bring people's vitality back to the peak, and can inject all the aura into the body.

However, this is only ten years ago, a hunter inadvertently took it and sold it to this doctor, and it can be regarded as a rumored herb, and he has not seen this herb in person until now.

This doctor had only heard of the existence of this herb from his master's mouth, and that this herb could revive the sick who were aging and declining.

In the face of this hopeless hope, the scholar in order to save his mother, or without hesitation on the road, encountered thunderstorms, encountered dog days, food was snatched by the monkey in the tree at night.

The water in the bamboo tube is also consumed day after day, and the white-shirted white shirt that looks clean and decent is becoming more and more dilapidated and dirty in the wind and nectar sleeping day after day, and the ten-mile road seems to be as long as a lifetime.

There was no food or water on the way, so he could only take advantage of his brain and physical strength, and sometimes, he used the slingshot of the boy from the neighbor's house to shoot down the birds on the tree, and then barbecued the bird's carcass, drank the bird's blood, ate the bird's meat, and replenished the energy he needed.

When you are thirsty, look for wild fruits in the nearby woods, and if there is a small stream, wash your face, put a bamboo tube, and drink enough.

After walking for about half a month, I slowly walked to the foot of Lingshan Mountain, and saw the decayed big stone at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, with two words written on it, Lingshan.

The scholar burst into tears, feeling that all his persistence was not in vain, because the villagers in the nearby village comforted him that this spiritual mountain was a legendary place, and it was very dangerous, so he persuaded her not to let him go.

And said that no one can live and walk to this iceberg, because there is not a single family near this spiritual mountain, just talking about eating and drinking, people may starve to death, but the dead, not to mention the tigers and beasts on this mountain, are watching the living people enter the mountain.

But along the way, although he was robbed of food, and occasionally encountered things that had not flowed for a long time, he never encountered any beasts.

That's why this scholar was so excited when he saw the word Lingshan.

He was grateful to God for giving him this opportunity, as long as he climbed the mountain and found the colorful herbs, then he would have the opportunity to save his mother.

So the scholar knelt down three times and bowed five times at the foot of this spiritual mountain, praying very sincerely to himself, this time he must get the desired result, get the herb in his dream, so that he can save his mother.

After a little trimming, he took the wild fruit and some water, and slowly entered this spiritual mountain.

After entering the spiritual mountain, the scholar slowly became depressed, and found that he was really too naïve, this spiritual mountain was too high, and he walked for seven days and seven nights without reaching the halfway point of the mountain.

The most important thing is that he found that it was not that he did not go, but because he was lost, and halfway through, there was always a fork in the road, misleading him to go the same way, so he kept spinning in the same place.

At this time, the scholar's physical strength is becoming faster and faster, his body is getting weaker and weaker, and everything is going in a bad direction.
