Chapter 3 Stone Heart Flower
Along the creek next to Yao's house all the way down is Nangong Yunyao's house, the silver hair in the moonlight is very handsome with the breeze, and the road is also white, don't worry about walking in the dark.
"Brother Yao, when did you say that Yao Lao will let us start refining medicine, my father is going to send my brother to the hunting ground in the village for training."
"Maybe it's coming soon, last time Yao Lao said that as long as we picked enough medicine, he would teach us to refine medicine, can your brother endure the kind of suffering of hunting ground training? Your brother is only 12 years old now, and everyone else is training at 15 years old. ”
The hunting training in the village is said to be a training ground founded by a hunting team, which is generally sent in for training for 3 years at the age of 15, and after standing up at the age of 18, he began to hunt with the hunting team in Xiangyuan, which was accompanied by various dangers.
"So what's the solution? My dad said that you have to start your training from a young age, and when you go to the hunting ground, you will have a lot more chances to survive than others. Xiaomeng couldn't help but feel sorry for this younger brother.
"Your dad is right." When I think of myself on the earth, the most hated thing is to go to school, when I was a child, I felt bored, and even in junior high school, I often skipped school to go out to play games, and the situation in high school was similar, and I regretted it when I was admitted to a third-rate university, and I thought: "If I am given a chance, I must study hard when I am young, and I will have a dream of Tsinghua University and Peking University."
Although there is no regret medicine on the earth, but now that I have this opportunity, I have now crossed into this body that is only 15 years old, and I must learn from Yao Lao and strive to become a pharmacist, or even a more pinnacle existence.
"Brother Yao, see you tomorrow."
At this time, I have arrived at Xiaomeng's house, and after seeing Xiaomeng enter, I continue to walk down according to the memory in my mind.
The first thing you see is a house made of stones below, and many large skeletons above, the roof is paved with animal skins, looking at these skeletons and animal skins, these monsters are several times larger than the elephants on the earth before their deaths, and the area of the house is about 50 square meters, and the house exudes a tempting smell of barbecue, which makes people salivate when they smell it.
hesitated back and forth at the door in front of the house, thinking that it was this body that saved him, otherwise he might not be able to cross it, in this case, then he must treat this great mother well.
"But Yun Yao is back?"
Just as he was hesitating, the voice of his mother Yang Hui came from the house.
"Mother, it's the child who has returned." Ying Sheng walked in.
In the room, the eyes were met by the kind face of a mother, with two temples on her head, teasing the needlework in her hands, and the meat was being roasted on the large shelf next to her, and the fire under the shelf was roasting and smoking, with a hot fragrance.
"Hurry up and eat, now is the time to grow taller, go to bed early after eating." Mother Yang Hui looked at the hungry Nangong Yunyao with a motherly look of concern.
"Well, Mother, you eat too." Feeling this strong maternal love, my nose suddenly soured, I was on earth because my mother opened a store all the year round, and I grew up with my grandmother since I was a child, and I have never been cared for like this.
Thinking in my heart, I must treat my mother well, and I must not treat my mother badly, so I will not tell my mother the news of Shi Xinhua for the time being, and after trading with Li Lao, I will go to the Li family tribe to buy a good gift for my mother and surprise my mother.
After finishing and on the bed, Nangong Yunyao, who was tossing and turning, couldn't fall asleep for a long time, thinking about it, tears fell.
"You must be strong, even if it's ......!"
In the morning, there were bursts of crying in the village, like a chicken's crow, and it was not a chicken, but a bird that every household was free-ranged, wearing a colorful long feather like a peacock, but the body shape was like an ostrich, an egg weighed two or three catties, this is the most commonly eaten bird egg in Xiangjia Village.
At this time, an 18-year-old young man with black hair was carrying a large bundle of rope tools on his shoulders and was rushing to Nangong Yunyao's house.
"I don't know how effective the heart of stone is, is it as solid as a rock as rumored? Is there a better chance of activating the stone core? Can you really break through to the beginner level of martial arts? The boy thought about it and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
"Good morning Aunt Yang, is Cousin Yunyao up?"
"Ah, it's Li Hao here, Yun Yao hasn't woken up today, do you have anything to do with Yun Yao?" Yang Hui looked at Li Hao, who was carrying the rope tool, and wondered, this Li Hao was already the backbone of the second hunting team at a young age, and he rarely played with his own children.
"Aunt Yang, that's the case, Yun Yao saw a medicine plant yesterday, and because one person couldn't pick it, he asked me to help." Although Li Hao didn't understand why Yun Yao didn't tell Aunt Yang about Shi Xinhua, maybe there was something he didn't understand, obviously he believed in Yun Yao's character.
"That's the case, then you sit and wait for a while, and I'll wake up Yunyao." After saying that, he turned around and walked into the house.
In one of the bedrooms in the house, a bed made of wood was covered with many animal feathers, including the common bird feathers, and the boy on the bed was still asleep, and the tears on his face were seen by Yang Hui who entered the room.
"Hey!" Yang Hui didn't know that the child had cried, but she was helpless, since her husband was killed, there was no source of life, and she relied on the help of neighbors to pull the child up step by step, even the simple needlework was found by her father and brother in the Li family tribe, during which some people persuaded her to remarry, but she still couldn't let go of Yun Yao, watching Yun Yao grow up year by year, and her heart was more comforted.
Looking at the sleeping Nangong Yunyao, although he couldn't bear to wake up, he still shook it.
"Yun Yao, Yun Yao, your brother Li Hao came to you, is there something wrong with you?"
"Ahh Mother, is Brother Li Hao here? Yesterday, I made an appointment with Brother Li Hao to go to Xiangshan to collect medicine together. Nangong Yunyao rubbed his eyes and got up and said.
"Well, get up quickly, don't keep people waiting."
After getting up and leaving the house, I saw Li Hao, who had a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes, sitting on a wooden bench.
"Brother Li Hao, I've been waiting for a long time, have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet, I've already brought something to eat, and I'm going to eat on the way there." Li Hao took out the cries in the toolbox and said.
"Well, then let's go to Xiangshan quickly." Looking at Li Hao, who had already been prepared, Yun Yao couldn't help but speed up, and then threw a bird egg from the ashes under the grill.
"Brother Yao, Brother Li Hao, I thought you wouldn't wait for me to leave!" Nangong Xiaomeng suddenly came out at the door.
"How could it be, aren't you going to call you, I slept late yesterday" Xiao Meng, who looked at the door with long hair in a shawl, said helplessly.
"Alright, everyone is here, let's go." Li Hao said urgently.
The sound of birds has long stopped, the rising sun is slowly rising in the east, and a group of three figures appeared on the stone road connecting Xiangjia Village to Xiangshan Mountain, and everyone was gnawing on bird eggs at this time.
"Well, what does it smell like roast chicken?" The first time I tried to cry birds, I couldn't help but say.
"I'm getting tired of eating! By the way, what does rotisserie chicken taste like? Hearing that she hadn't eaten it, Xiaomeng asked.
"It's the smell of birds." Nangong Yunyao was perfunctory, and only then did he remember that there was no weak animal like roast chicken in the other world in his memory.
"Oh, really?" Xiao Meng obviously didn't believe it, but Brother Yao didn't say it.
At the foot of Elephant Mountain, looking upwards is the Elephant Mountain, which stretches for hundreds of kilometers and stands tall in the forest.
"Yun Yao, where did you meet Shi Xinhua?"
"Brother Li Hao, don't worry, follow me, turn left from this road and walk for a quarter of an hour to see where Shixinhua is located." Nangong Yunyao walked towards a road in front of him.
A quarter of an hour later, the trio appeared on top of a cliff that had apparently been trodden on the path next to it.
"Brother Li Hao, look, it's that one."
Looking up at the top of the path, there is a small flower bud in the stone crevice, reflecting a little sunlight, and the stone gray leaves are naturally hidden and integrated with the stone wall, if it were not for the crystalline flower buds and bones in the sky above the spirit plant, it would be difficult for anyone to find it.
"Well, I see, I'll go down and pick it, and you guys are going up and looking at the rope." With that, he took out a thick bundle of rope from his toolbox and tied it to a large tree on the top of the cliff.
"Remember to pluck carefully so as not to hurt the rhizome."
"Yes, I see."
Walking cautiously along the trail for a while, Li Hao arrived at the stone crevice where the stone heart flower was, and gently excavated the stone heart flower in the stone crack, there was no fluctuation on the surface, but he was introverted but extremely excited, is this the stone heart flower that advanced himself?
"Brother Li Hao, be careful, come up quickly, go home and refine the herbs after the old medicine is verified." Seeing that the stone heart flower has been picked in good condition, I'm afraid that Li Lao has already finished trading the second-level monster, right? When I go home, I will be able to go to the Li family tribe tomorrow to buy medicinal herbs, and I am also excited in my heart.
Xiangjia Village's medicine hometown.
"It's really a heart flower! This bud has just bloomed for less than a few years, and it will take more than ten years to fully open. A pair of calloused hands tightly held the medicine elder of the stone heart flower excitedly.
"Then please refine the medicine to make herbs, and the remaining medicinal materials you need have been bought." Li Lao, who was already waiting in the medicine family, said.
"Well, I'll pick it up tomorrow."
"Yun Yao, this is the 1,500 gold coins that just finished trading the second-level monster, but you have to save it." Elder Li handed a money bag containing gold coins to Nangong Yunyao's hand and taught.
"Well, Elder Li rest assured, I will make this gold coin have some value and use it on the steel blade."
"Yun Yao, haven't you already wanted to learn alchemy? This is a list of medicinal materials, tomorrow you will go to the Li family tribe to purchase and teach you to refine herbs. Yao Lao handed a piece of paper with a list of medicinal materials written on it to Nangong Yunyao.
"Thank you, Yao Lao."
"Yao Lao, Brother Yao has long wanted to learn." Nangong Bingmeng on the side said mischievously.
"It's like you don't want to learn, and someone was worried about it yesterday."
"Slightly." Nangong Bingmeng stuck out her tongue mischievously.
At noon, my stomach was hungry, and the eggs I had eaten in the morning had already been digested, and it was time for lunch.
"Yao Lao, let's go home." Nangong Bingmeng was the first to step out of the door.
"Well, you come back in the evening, and make a move when you refine the Stone Heart Flower."
