Early in the morning of the second day, Zhu Yan was dragged up early by Yuan Rin, and after eating breakfast quickly, he went all the way to a mountain behind Duanxi Village.

After walking for half an hour, Zhu Yan noticed that something was a little strange, and when he turned his head, there was no one following except the two of them on the mountain road, so he couldn't help but stop and ask him: "You said that you came up the mountain with me to recognize the herbs, the girl in Xingye is too noisy and doesn't want her to follow, why doesn't Guan He follow?" I didn't seem to see him yesterday, he didn't come with you? ”

Yuan Rin shook her head, with a little smile between her eyebrows, it wasn't too late for her to find out, "He went to Liuhua Temple to find a witness." ”

"Human witness?" Zhu Yan looked at him in a daze, the name of Liuhua Temple is quite familiar, isn't it the place where Concubine Xiang's bones were buried? Isn't there Kongfa and his apprentices, who else can be witnesses besides the two of them?

"There are some tricky things that require personal identification." Yuan Rin nodded, didn't say any more, and turned his head to look at a small shrub beside the road, "The Nantian bamboo here really grows well." ”

Zhu Yan followed his gaze, where the wild grasses in the mountains were hidden, and sure enough, there was a small shrub with blood-red branches and pale green leaves, and there were a few small beige flowers on the weak stalks, and there were still a few red fruits that had fallen last year, although the color had faded in the wind and sun for a year, but the original red and lovely color was still faintly recognizable.

"This thing lasts very long, and it's good to use it as a Qing Dynasty offering." Zhu Yan evoked a hint of a smile, she had picked a branch and leaf when she was a child, and raised it in the water for a week. It's still exactly the same as when you took it off.

"I brought you to the mountains to recognize the medicine, how did you remember that the Qing Dynasty was here?" Yuan Rin shook her head helplessly, was she deliberately changing the topic?

"It's so brightly colored. It's naturally quite poisonous, so why bother using it as medicine if it's okay? If the dose is wrong, how is it different from murder? Zhu Yan sighed, she remembered that aconite is also poisonous, so the teacher once warned that she could not master the method of use, and did not use a large amount of aconite at will. lest the patient be in critical condition and cause unnecessary trouble.

"Most of the people who can use a large amount of Nantian bamboo are also considered evil diseases. What if it can't be cured? Yuan Rin pushed aside the weeds and walked closer, very quickly folded a few thick stems, and checked them in his hand, "A small amount of Nantian bamboo can stop the liver wind." It is just right to prevent the eye disease that Yiten contracted after surgery. ”

Zhu Yan raised an eyebrow. That is a postoperative infection of conjunctivitis, can it have anything to do with "liver wind"? She really felt that the liver wind was too wronged this time, and such a heavy pot should not be carried by it. But she didn't bother to talk to Yuan Rin about this, anyway, studying medicine is about practice, as long as the goal can be achieved, no matter what the theory says.

"Did you come to the mountains just to pick some of this?" Zhu Yan frowned and put the stem he handed over into his sleeve, and glanced at him angrily. He wore a narrow sleeve for ease of movement, but he didn't tell himself. It's crazy to drag such a light wide-sleeved shirt in the mountains, "Speaking of which, it's only three or four dollars here, right?" ”

"That's enough." Yuan Rin took a few steps up, turned around and stretched out his hand to her, "Come up and take a look again, you can't be so comfortable in Beijing." ”

Zhu Yan glanced at him, which means - have fun while you can still be alive, and don't even think about it in the future? Deliberately put his outstretched hand there, and climbed a tall tree next to him and walked up, "I can do it myself." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the corner of his skirt was hooked by the low bushes beside the road, and he had to reluctantly help his hand and bend down to untie it.

"You're going to be strong." Yuan Rin held her hand tightly, waited for her to straighten her waist, and forcefully pulled her into his arms, "Then why are you even calling me in your dreams?" ”

Zhu Yan's heart tightened, the mountain road was quite steep, she didn't dare to be careless, so she could only let him hold her, while secretly thinking about whether she could talk in her dreams last night? Why is there no impression at all...... When I looked up and saw him smiling meaningfully, I realized that I was referring to the previous time when I had never written to him.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yan lowered his face coldly, "Let go, it's not too hot to stick together on such a hot day." ”

"The sun hasn't come out yet, what's hot?" Although Yuan Rin said this, his hand let go of her, "Hurry up, we still have to go back at noon." ”

Zhu Yan didn't answer, she looked up at the dense leaf shadow on her head, in fact, the sun had already come out, but it was just blocked by the shadow of the tree, really she was easy to deceive?

"Huh?" Zhu Yan glanced out of the corner of his eyes, and suddenly saw a bunch of purple-red berries in the grass, and quickly picked a bunch in his hand, "I recognize this, it's Shang Lu...... Eh, I should have recognized it......" stuck out her tongue, what she wanted to express was actually that she also recognized this thing before studying medicine, but she didn't know how to explain it for a while, so she simply shut up and didn't speak.

Seeing her embarrassed, Yuan Rin smiled, and when the words of ridicule came to her mouth, she still swallowed back, and instead took a handkerchief to wipe the purple juice in her hand, "The red stem is poisonous, be careful." ”

"So this one is also poisonous?" Zhu Yan blinked, and carefully picked a berry, he didn't know that he hadn't been so careful before.

“…… How did you learn Materia Medica? Yuan Rin frowned, Shanglu is poisonous, which medicine book is not written? What's more, this thing grows everywhere in Jiangnan, and most of the elders in the family will mention it for fear that their children will be poisoned by mistake.

Zhu Yan shook his head, "I didn't mean that, most of the drugs will be toxic, but I don't know, how toxic is it?" ”

Yuan Rin raised his eyebrows, "How poisonous?" Eat this fruit you picked, and you will know how poisonous it is. ”

“…… What could go wrong? Zhu Yan twisted her eyebrows, she seemed to remember that when she first arrived here, it happened to be the Qingming Festival, Shang Lu had just smoked the sprouts, and her family was poor at that time, so she had to eat some wild vegetables to survive, Xu Silk Zhen seemed to have used Shang Lu to make a small stir-fry, didn't she still live well?

As if guessing what she was thinking, Yuan Rin pointed to the purple-red stem in her hand, "The purple one is poisonous, and if it is a green stem, the poor peasants often pick it to make wild vegetables to eat." ”

Zhu Yan's heart was slightly astringent, when she first came, she really didn't want to think about it, and how did the girl who fell from the life of brocade clothes and food in Beijing into this situation all of a sudden?

After a while, he smiled reluctantly, "The fresh wild vegetables taste good, too...... It's better than bamboo shoots. ”

"Ah Yan, don't think about the past." Yuan Rin patted her, threw the piece of Shanglu in her hand on the side of the road, and wiped the marks on her hands for her, and then continued to walk with her. (To be continued......)
