Chapter 10 The Moon Creek Fog Covers the Mountains
"Master, look, look, I've got something good for you. ”
As soon as he returned to the medicine house in the evening, Zheng Qiu couldn't wait to take out the porcelain bottle and ran into the kitchen to find the master.
"Oh, what did the good apprentice bring, let the master see. ”
When he opened the cork, the master's face immediately turned up: "Zheng Qiu, where did this pill come from?"
"Master, don't get me wrong, this is what I went to the Danfang and begged Senior Brother Mo to practice for me. ”
"Refined?"
"Well, I took the medicinal herbs and begged Senior Brother Mo for the pill that he refined. ”
"Where did you get the medicinal herbs, from the medicine garden?"
"No, no, you taught me to find medicine, I found seeds in the mountains and planted them by the river. When it is ripe, take it to the Dan room and ask Senior Brother Mo for alchemy. ”
"That's really misunderstood. The master poured out a pill into his hand, the pill was round, and the color was yellow, "Good apprentice, what kind of pill is this?"
"Senior brother said that this is called Yiqi Pill, and eating it can strengthen the body, but it must be eaten in water. ”
Zheng Qiu took the porcelain bowl, poured it full of water and pushed it in front of the master, "Master, try it quickly, the effect will definitely be very good." ”
"Good apprentice doesn't eat?"
"It's all for the master, who is old and needs tonic. ”
The master only felt that his eyes were a little moist, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe them: "Master eats, master must finish eating." ”
Saying that, the master turned away a pill of Qi Benefiting Pill and drank it in front of Zheng Qiu.
"Master, then I'll go clean up and don't disturb you cooking. Seeing that the master had eaten the Yiqi Pill, Zheng Qiu grinned very happily and ran out of the kitchen with a jump.
The master looked at the porcelain vase for a long time, then took off his coat and carefully hid it in the inner pocket of his underwear.
"Good apprentice, eat. After a while, the master walked out of the kitchen with a plate of dishes. In the past, there were two dishes for dinner every time, but today the chef specially made an extra plate.
Halfway through the meal, the master suddenly said, "Good apprentice, the master also brought you something." ”
"Give it to me?" Zheng Qiu opened his mouth, and the rice fell off the table.
The master took a palm-sized thin-necked vase from the cabinet: "Look, this is it." ”
Zheng Qiu took the thin-necked vase, and there was a green grass planted in it, the grass was small, with only three leaves.
"Good apprentice, this is the herb you found from the watermill. ”
"Didn't the master say that the grass by the waterwheel was sick, why did it grow so green now? Could it be that the master has found out what kind of grass this is?"
"Although I didn't find it, but who is your master, if you want to say that no one can compare to me in this medicine cultivation technique on the mountain. This grass master groped his way out, and he had to be raised with clean water, and he couldn't touch the soil. And this grass has to get angry, and if it doesn't get angry, it won't grow. ”
"Master means that this grass must be raised with living creatures?"
"Yes, a good apprentice is smart. So the master will give it back to you, and you just need to take it with you in the future. ”
"Wow, the master is amazing. Zheng Qiu gently pulled the blade of grass and found that it had become as resilient as cow tendon again.
"Put the bottle aside, eat first, and if you don't eat, it will be cold. ”
"Got it, master. ”
Time always sneaks away inadvertently, March has passed in a blink of an eye, the weather is getting cooler a little bit, snowflakes will fall on the mountain every three or five days, and the New Year is getting closer and closer.
Recently, there has been a lot of good news in the sect, because the supply of pills in the Danfang has increased, and many disciples have successfully reached the Imperial Qi Realm. I heard that one of the sect master's apprentices had already touched the threshold of the Qi Condensation Realm, and he was only one step away from breaking through.
As for the senior sister, the sect master did not give her the position of elder for a long time, and many people speculated that the sect master wanted his apprentice to be an elder.
With a basket on his back, Zheng Qiu set foot on the mountain road that he had walked a thousand times, and he had a thin-necked vase around his neck, and the grass in it had grown a little and had four leaves.
After the New Year, Zheng Qiu will be ten years old, and he originally thought of going to the Danfang to ask for some pills again, so that he could take them down the mountain for his parents to eat. But the master dissuaded him and told him that the sect was very shy about this kind of thing, and it was strictly forbidden to bring pills to outsiders in the sect without permission.
Zheng Qiu had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, and found some herbs from the mountains that could be taken directly and planted.
Taking out the lunch box, Zheng Qiu rubbed his hands and opened the lid of the box, today's dish put by the master is pickled radish mixed with ginger shreds, especially for rice. As he was chewing heavily, Zheng Qiu found that the scenery outside the hut was a little blurry, and he rubbed his eyes, not his own dazzle.
I put down my lunch box and ran out to see what was going on, hey, it was foggy, how could it be foggy at noon? Maybe it was going to rain, but it would be fine after a while. Zheng Qiu shrugged his shoulders and continued to go back to the house to eat.
But it didn't rain as he expected, and as time went on, the fog grew thicker. Zheng Qiu stood outside the garden, almost unable to see the herbs in the garden. He ran to the river, and then to the mountain road to the medicine garden, and everywhere was foggy.
It's really interesting, Zheng Qiu has never seen such a big fog, as if he is in a cotton pile, he is running around and having fun.
A few hours later, a shout came from the direction of the mountain road: "Good apprentice, good apprentice......
It's the master, the master is here. Zheng Qiu hurriedly ran out of the park: "Master, I'm here, master!"
Soon, the master followed the voice and found Zheng Qiu: "Good apprentice, let's go, let's go back to the medicine house." ”
"Now go back to the medicine house, isn't it dark yet? ”
"Of course, go back now, it's so foggy, can you still find your way when it's dark? ”
"Oh, then I'll pack up my things, master, wait a minute. Zheng Qiu thought that what the master said was right, now he couldn't see the mountain road, let alone after dark.
Following the master back to the medicine house, Zheng Qiu found that the fog was all over the mountain, from the medicine garden to the back mountain medicine house, there was no place that was not shrouded in fog.
No matter before or after, left and right, it was all white, and only the mountain road under his feet allowed him to roughly identify his position. Maybe the fog was too big, the sect was quiet, and there was no third person except him and the master along the way.
As soon as he returned to the medicine house, the master said to Zheng Qiu: "Good apprentice, you don't have to go to the medicine garden tomorrow." ”
"Ahh
The master helped him untie the basket, touched his head and replied, "You see that the fog is so big outside, how inconvenient it is for you to go to the medicine garden." Besides, the fog is heavy and the humidity is heavy, and your garden is full of water-loving herbs, so there will be no problem. ”
"Master, how do you know that tomorrow will still be so foggy?"
"Your master is very capable, you see that this fog is thick and wide, and it will definitely last for several days. ”
"Master, you are so powerful, does the master know when this fog will dissipate?"
The master smiled awkwardly: "This, the master only knows the fog, and he doesn't know when it will disperse." It's okay, the master will go to someone who understands and ask, and you will know by asking. ”
The master glanced at the sky and said to Zheng Qiu: "Good apprentice, the master will ask when this fog will disperse." Keep the doors and windows closed, but don't let the moisture get into the house. ”
"Well, master, don't worry. ”
"Okay, don't run around in the medicine house, and I'll make you something to eat when the master comes back in the evening." ”
After telling the apprentice, the master left the medicine house, he looked at the mountain fog and frowned, identified the direction a little, and hurried into the thick white fog.
