Volume 2 Survival in the Forbidden Land Chapter 27 The Spirit Snake Roots

Time passed minute by minute, but Ning Yuanru's progress was very slow. She does things completely like her own temperament, unhurried, impatient, and tepid.

Xu Ziqing and Ling Yue were very anxious on the side, and changed their postures back and forth several times, but found that there seemed to be no progress at all. But looking at Ning Yuanru, she was holding her breath and concentrating, preoccupied. In this way, it is not good to disturb again, and the two of them can only pass the time boringly.

This ginseng is much more potent than all the herbs they have gathered, so there is no need to spend time searching for other herbs. Not only is the healing effect not obvious, but it also takes a lot of time.

However, this wait lasted for more than half an hour. In the past half an hour, Ning Yuanru's whole person has not moved at all, which makes people have to admire her amazing concentration.

Suddenly, Ning Yuanru's figure suddenly shook violently, as if he was frightened, and he almost didn't call out. The two hurried over to inquire about the situation.

Ning Yuanru had been kneeling on the ground, so all the underside of her knees was soaked with water. But at this time, her face was slightly anxious, and her brows were tightly locked.

"There's a snake down there. Ning Yuanru said. The words don't show that they are overly frightened, but they do seem to be frightened. I was carefully cleaning up the ginseng, but suddenly found that there was a snake buried in the ground, and everyone was panicked.

There was actually a snake buried in the ground, and it happened to be under the ginseng, Xu Ziqing felt that it was not a coincidence. Vigilantly walked over to check the situation, and at this time most of the ginseng had surfaced. The ginseng body is bright yellow, absolutely resembling a human shape, the shape is full, the roots are thick, and it is indeed a treasure in medicine.

There is also a small part of the ginseng barrikers buried in the earth, and the lower part is a hollow, and it is estimated that the snake is in it. Now is not the cold winter wax moon, there is no need for hibernation at all. The so-called there must be a demon when things go wrong, and it must not be wrong to think about it.

Xu Ziqing poked down twice with a long wooden stick, and it did look like he had touched a soft object. With the bottom in his heart, Xu Ziqing planned to get this snake out first.

poked a few more times but found that there was still no movement, Xu Ziqing simply wanted to warp it out directly. It turned out that it was just an ordinary cauliflower snake, but it looked a little stubby. Xu Ziqing was in a state of flux, and planned to blow it away so that he could continue to dig up the ginseng, but he was suddenly stopped by Ning Yuanru.

"Wait. ”

"What's wrong?" Xu Ziqing turned his head and asked.

"Give me this snake. Ning Yuanru said with a faint smile.

"Isn't this just an ordinary snake?" Xu Ziqing was puzzled. If it's a rare snake or a spirit animal, of course, it still has some value, but it's just an ordinary snake, and it looks stupid.

"Of course it's a spirit animal. Ning Yuanru said. At the same time, she took the remaining half of the leaves that Xu Ziqing had eaten before, walked to the little snake and spread out her palms. saw that the half-dead snake slowly moved to Ning Yuanru's palm, and began to eat the leaves in a big gulp. There are many snakes that eat meat, but this is the first time I have seen a vegetarian snake.

"I've heard that all natural and earthly treasures are accompanied by spirit animals. I didn't expect this wild ginseng's companion spirit beast to be this kind of thing. Ling Yue said.

Seeing that a creepy snake actually ran onto Ning Yuanru's palm, Ling Yue suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and his face was disgusted. I couldn't stand it anymore, Ling Yue quickly turned her head and stopped thinking about it. But Ning Yuanru regarded him like an ordinary person, and there was a faint doting on his face.

"I estimate that the seeds of this ginseng are eaten by it every year, and over time it will turn into a spirit animal. Ning Yuanru said, "What a lucky little guy." ”

In the end, Ning Yuanru actually took it into his arms.

Xu Ziqing, who was yawning, saw this scene, and the boss with his mouth open was in disbelief. Unexpectedly, Ning Yuanru, who looked gentle and elegant on the surface, had a habit of raising such things. Xu Ziqing couldn't help but shudder, and he didn't dare to imagine the two together.

After settling the little snake, Ning Yuanru continued to dig wild ginseng. There's not much left, just some roots that need to be lifted. A moment later, a complete ginseng came into view, and Ling Yue hurriedly took out the moss she had prepared before and wrapped it in it.

With it, the two brothers' injuries were healed. Xu Ziqing carefully held the mountain ginseng in his arms, for fear that it would fly away.

However, all the spiritual objects of heaven and earth, which are conceived by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, must be stored in a special container before they can be put into a storage ring or a Qiankun bag. Otherwise, the engraved formation will absorb the aura of the spiritual object, thus causing a great loss. And the spirit stone was originally used to replace the imprinting formation, and the two naturally could not be compared.

At this time, after a long time after noon, the three of them rested here, and then went back after eating. At this time, it was still dark, and they were afraid to avoid going the wrong way, so the three decided to return the same way. Although it took an extra turn, it was better to be safe after all. The situation of the two is not hovering in the threshold of life and death, but they are not in a hurry at this time.

Because of the rain, it was still early, but it was a little dark, and the group hurried back to the camp before dark. The two orange-red fires are very attractive and make people look very reassured.

Wang Qingyu's day was not wasted, she built a roof here, although it looked very simple, but it could also shelter from the rain. If it rains, at least the people won't get wet anymore.

The clothes that had been changed in the morning had also been dried at this time, and there was still a lot of firewood, so Wang Qingyu should have picked it up again. Wang Qingyun had woken up, but he was still very weak and pale. And Ling Chen still only had a faint breath, and the whole person looked like a corpse, cold all over.

"Brother Qingyun, we picked up a ginseng plant on this trip. Xu Ziqing carefully opened the moss on his chest like a treasure, revealing the wild ginseng inside.

Wang Qingyun smiled faintly, and said a little weakly: "Let's use it for dust." A Hunyuan's face looked very pale at this time, like a seriously ill patient.

"This..."Xu Ziqing was a little embarrassed, he wanted to tell Wang Qingyun the good news, but he didn't expect Wang Qingyun to care so much about Ling Chen, and directly asked him to let Ling Chen give all the wild ginseng.

"You can take it all. Ning Yuanru checked Ling Chen's situation on the side and said softly.

The iron pot had already been placed next to the fire, and it should have been handed over to Wang Qingyu by Wang Qingyun before. Put an iron pot on the shelf and scoop half a pot of water. Ning Yuanru removed the stems and leaves of the ginseng and put it next to the fire and roasted it for a while, took off some of the water, and then threw it into the pot whole.

"I don't wash it... ? Xu Ziqing muttered to himself on the side.

It takes time and heat to boil the soup, and the soup is constantly boiled and dried, and then water is added to continue to boil, so as to bring out the maximum medicinal properties of the herb as much as possible. The amazing thing is that after boiling in such boiling water for so long, I didn't see the ginseng boiling rotten, and it still remained the same. It can be seen that the value of its own existence, and the precious herb really lives up to its name.

Several of them had a late lunch, so they weren't very hungry. When the whole pot of soup is bright brown, it is finally finished. Calculating the time, it was simmered for more than an hour. The medicinal fragrance is rich, fresh and bright.

took out two large clay bowls, Ning Yuanru filled one by himself, and also cut off the small half of the ginseng roots. The remaining ginseng soup and ginseng are packed into a spare water bag and can be boiled again tomorrow.

Bring the ginseng soup with half a root to Wang Qingyun, and give another bowl to Ling Chen.

"Give the dust. Wang Qingyun didn't even raise his eyelids and said so.

"Both. Wang Qingyu served him on the side and said softly.

"Give it all to him. Wang Qingyun is still so tough that he refuses to drink soup.

Wang Qingyu was patient, and still said softly: "Brother Chen also has medicine. ”

"I'll tell you to give it to him!" I don't know where the strength came from, Wang Qingyun shouted loudly. The sudden temper tantrum frightened everyone on the side. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

From Wang Qingyun looking for Ling Chen everywhere to dragging Ling Chen back step by step, maybe only he knows what Ling Chen has experienced. He saw with his own eyes that night's dragon figure emerge from Ling Chen's body, and Ling Chen fell from the sky into a bush. When he found Ling Chen, his whole body was frozen in ice, and only a trace of his heart remained, dying. Wang Qingyun endured his grief and dragged him away step by step, looking for all the ways that could save him. He thought to himself, even if Ling Chen died in the end, he would have to leave a whole corpse.

Wang Qingyun knew that such a serious injury could not be solved by just one wild ginseng. But he still wanted to give up all this meager medicinal power to Ling Chen. Ling Chen's current situation, he didn't dare to speak. Stubborn, he gradually closed his eyes and stopped talking.

"Hurry up and drink the medicine. Ling Chen is now unconscious, and even drinking soup is a problem. Your injuries are lighter than his, and if you finish drinking and then eating some of the ginseng, you'll be almost fine. And Yuan Ru also said before that Ling Chen's body is now weak and cannot be replenished, and it is useless to fill more. Now that everyone is short of manpower, how long will you be sick? Do you have to take care of you all of us?" Ling Yue really couldn't stand it, and scolded Wang Qingyun.

The atmosphere was quiet, with the occasional thunderclap from the campfire.

Ling Chen was beside Wang Qingyun, but he was lying quietly like this, without any sound. Even though Wang Qingyun knew that Ling Chen's injuries were serious, this kind of care was always blind. Nowadays, everyone needs one backbone, not all of them to take care of two patients.

Ling Yue was right, he was a slap in the face. In such a desperate environment, relationships will always progress very quickly. It would never be thought that this girl had been in their team for less than a month. Everyone always supports each other and treats each other without any discrimination. Ling Yue also understood very well that although she felt that she was an outsider, it did not prevent her from bringing up the topic.

Wang Qingyu is his younger sister, even though she is rude and willful, she has never disobeyed Wang Qingyun's ideas. Xu Ziqing is introverted, lacks self-confidence, and has always been everyone-centered and listens to the opinions of others. Ning Yuanru was silent and said little, although he could put forward the right decision, he would not insist and lobby too much. After Ling Chen's fall, the team's drawbacks followed, that is, no one came up with the right decision. And now this role can only be completed by Ling Yue.

And not because she just joined. It stands to reason that when you first join a group, you should try your best to adapt to the team, rather than being sharp. It's not because it's the only one who can see the essence of the problem, but everyone here knows what the problem is. It's about having someone who can ask questions, especially in an environment where every step is not wrong. None of the others can play two roles in the team at the same time. Even Ling Chen, he is only the role of the team leader, but he is the core.

The team needs a person who can face the situation at all times and give the most correct decision, this person can be everyone, but there can only be one.

Wang Qingyun also understands this truth, the authorities are confused, and it is his own mistake.

A hand on Ling Chen's leg slowly rubbed, feeling the cold body temperature on Ling Chen's body. Wang Qingyun withdrew his palm, looked at the bowl of soup in front of him for a moment, hesitated slightly, and then drank it all.

Seeing this, there was a touch of joy on everyone's faces.

"And this one has to be eaten too. Wang Qingyu was also very happy, and playfully pointed to the half of the ginseng root in the bowl and reminded.

Fingers pinched the roots, and Wang Qingyun slowly put it into his mouth and chewed it. Half a day only frowned and said, "It's so bitter." ”

"Good medicine is good for disease, you know?" Wang Qingyu said in an old-fashioned lesson on the side.

Ling Yue smiled and looked at Ning Yuanru, who was kneeling beside Ling Chen, who seemed to be aware of his gaze and nodded with a smile as well.
