Chapter 40: First Acquaintance with Medicinal Herbs

"Humph! Senior sister, take care of them, I went into the mountains today, and I couldn't teach you to recognize herbs well, now you follow my brother, and my brother will teach you to know some wild vegetables! Some are delicious, some are seasoned, so talk to these boys so you don't spoil you! Sun Yuanqing still said resentfully. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Qin Shan also laughed coquettishly, and obediently followed Sun Yuanqing to prepare to leave.

"Brothers! Start! After a shout, Qin Shan's relaxed body instantly tensed, and the dagger was also clenched in the palm of his hand, nervously squatting and turning around, because Qin Shan heard the movement behind him!

It was the sound of a dagger being pulled out of his waist! It's not one, it's four, and the sound of four people drawing daggers in unison! How could Qin Shan not be nervous?

Generally, the dagger is smaller, the friction is smaller, and the sound it makes is not as loud as the sound of the knife drawn, and the general ear power is inaudible, but Qin Shan is too familiar with the dagger, and Qin Shan has a sharpness beyond ordinary people, so she instantly reacted to the enemy.

And when I look back, I am happy. It turned out that the four of them drew their daggers for real, but they were aimed at a pile of dead snakes on the ground! Peel the skin, remove the gall bladder, remove the bones, take the meat!

Sun Yuanqing looked at Qin Shan's instantaneous reaction, and was even more impressed with this junior sister in his heart!

"Senior sister, I think you are very powerful more and more! In fact, this snake is very valuable, but if the whole is handed over to the task hall, it is not cost-effective, and when it is disassembled, the snake skin is the price of the snake skin, the snake gall is the price of the snake gall, and the snake meat is the price of the snake meat, and it will earn more. Sun Yuanqing pulled Qin Shan up and explained as he walked.

It turned out that this mission hall was not only recycled, but also sold.

This snake meat, although it is the most worthless thing on the snake's body, but because the flesh and blood contain rich nutrients, it not only strengthens the muscles and strengthens the body, but also the most important thing is that the snake is a psychic thing, and it is born with the ability to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and the essence of heaven and earth absorbed is all in this snake flesh, and cultivators can eat it, and they can absorb it into the body and refine the body. So it's very sought-after.

Snake meat in the mission hall is the price of one or two snake meat, ten taels of silver. And if the mission hall is sold out, it will cost thirty taels of silver. If you go to the school cafeteria to eat ready-made, I'm afraid it will cost a hundred taels! And demand often outstrips supply.

Every time Sun Yuanqing caught a snake, several disciples who often guarded the mountain gate would never go to register, let alone charge them entry fees, but stayed here early, waiting for their return, to help deal with the dead snakes, and classify them well.

Everyone eats a few snake meats to satisfy their hunger, which can be regarded as a reward, and the excess will be bought from Sun Yuanqing at the price of twenty taels of silver.

Sun Yuanqing explained while carrying his backpack and walking all the way down the stream.

"Senior sister, look! It's basil! It is a medicinal and edible plant, and it is also an ordinary herb. Because it is more common and relatively cheap, the mission hall is not charged. But it's good stuff! ā€

"When you smell it, it has a powerful, stimulating and rich fragrance, and the whole plant is small, with emerald green leaves and bright flowers. It is a perennial plant. ā€

Qin Shan took a beautiful grass and smelled it, it tasted like fennel on the earth, a very pungent fragrance.

"It can be used as a seasoning into dishes, covering the flesh, driving away evil smells, and enhancing flavor and freshness. It can also be used as medicine, which has the functions of dispelling wind and qi, dissolving dampness and eliminating food, invigorating blood and detoxifying. It can be used for the treatment of external headaches, flatulence, diarrhea, menstrual irregularities, bruises, snake bites, skin eczema and other symptoms. ā€

Sun Yuanqing talked eloquently, but his eyes were like radar on the grass and at the roots of trees, and he would squat down and look carefully for special environments.

"Senior sister, this is Shiso! It is an annual herbaceous plant. The leaves are wrinkled and curled, and the complete ones are oval after flattening, the apex is long and pointed, the base is rounded, the edges are serrate, the two sides are purple, and the lower surface has concave scales, and the texture is brittle. The young branches are purple-green, there is pith in the middle of the section, the air is fragrant, and the taste is slightly pungent. ā€

"It can not only sweat and dissipate cold to relieve evil, but also be able to exercise wide qi, relieve depression and stop vomiting. It can be used to treat spleen and stomach qi stagnation, chest tightness, and vomiting, regardless of whether there are symptoms or not, and it can be applied to take its role in the wide range of qi. It can also disperse the cold, has strong sweating power, and can also be used for wind chill symptoms. ā€

"The most important thing is that it tastes crisp and sweet, and when it is tender, it tastes delicious!"

Along the way, fast or slow, you can find some plants, or into medicine, or into vegetables, or medicine and food. Qin Shan's heart was very shocked at the moment! The diversity of plants in this world surprised Qin Shan! And people's perception of the medicinal value of plants is beyond Qin Shan's imagination!

"Well, almost. Let's go back! "It's only half an hour's effort, and it's only three or five miles away, and Sun Yuanqing's back basket has no less than twenty kinds of wild vegetables and herbs.

What Qin Shan likes the most is that there are chili peppers! It's just that it's not called chili pepper here, it's called green horn! Qin Shan felt that it was more appropriate to call it a green horn, a cyan plant like an animal's horns.

On the way back, Qin Shan found a few tender and freshly emerging bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, and dug them out happily. And cut a bamboo with the thickness of the bowl mouth, cut it one by one, and looked at the dozen bamboo tubes I made, and I was very satisfied.

But Sun Yuanqing couldn't understand it: "What are you doing?" This bamboo shoot can grow bamboo, what do you dig so small? ā€

"Senior brother, this is a delicious thing! Hehe, my sister will add a dish to you in a while! Qin Shan said with a smile.

After going back, several senior brothers had already dealt with the snake neatly, and after the snake skin was simply cleaned, they were all rolled up, one by one, which was easy to take. And the snake gall was also packed in several small jars. The bones of the snake were all intact and tied together. The snake meat was cleaned and wrapped in lotus leaves.

"The monkeys are back! Everything is divided for you! Snake meat alone is 68 pounds! You're going to make a fortune this time! One of the senior brothers greeted first.

Sun Yuanqing was also very excited, and his eyes lit up when he looked at this large pile of things. He took 8 packs of snake meat and said, "Today's harvest is big, let's eat happily, I roasted this fraction!" ā€

"Wow!" "Bang Bang!" Screams and clapping came and went.

Qin Shan watched a group of people carnival, and she was very happy in her heart, and she wanted to come too! One tael of snake meat, it costs 20 taels of silver to buy from Sun Yuanqing, and one catty is sixteen taels! That's 320 taels of silver! This 8 catties is 2,500 taels of silver! Can you not cheer?

Wait a minute! 8 pounds of two thousand five hundred taels of silver! That 60 pounds! Oh, my God! Get rich! And snake bones, snake skin, snake gall! It seems that the senior brother said that snake meat is the least valuable!

Happiness rises instantly! This wealth came too suddenly!

Everyone was very happy, everyone was busy, one person collected firewood, one person went back to get money, and two people went to fight small beasts. And only Qin Shan and Sun Yuanqing were idle.
