Chapter 56: Picking Up a Man
Li Zhengdeng understood what Gu Yunyao meant and nodded. "Okay, I'll go tell your grandfather."
Lifting his feet, Li Zheng and his neighbors scattered.
Gu Chuanhai brought the wooden barrel back, in addition to the pork liver, the father and daughter also bought pig hearts and lungs, and boiled them in a piece, but they couldn't be hungry for this meal.
Gu Yunyao was cooking in the kitchen, looking at the bottom of the firewood and frowning, is this old mansion poor and crazy? There is also a lot less firewood.
But Gu Yunyao didn't plan to pursue it, and shouted into the house: "Dad, I heard Uncle Tiezhu say that he is going to the town to run errands in the afternoon, let's ask Uncle Tiezhu to buy us some food and come back, in the afternoon, we have to go into the mountains to collect firewood, and there is no firewood at home." ”
Gu Chuanhai hurriedly found some money in the back room, "Okay, Dad, I'm going to find your Uncle Tiezhu." ”
Gu Chuanhai moved neatly, and Tiezhu also agreed, and after the two of them finished eating and rested, they took the firewood knife, axe and cart into the mountain.
In Yucang Mountain, the breeze carries the aroma of grass and trees, and the pine trees on the roadside also exude the smell of pine oil, and occasionally a few small squirrels jump by, carrying the breath of nature that modern society does not have.
You can't cut firewood nearby, and the woods at the foot of the mountain are shelterbelts for the village's fields.
After walking for almost an hour, he felt that it was almost far away, and Gu Chuanhai stopped, and Gu Yunyao began to pant again.
"Yaoyao, dad is here to chop wood, you just rest." Gu Chuanhai was a little distressed.
Gu Yunyao looked around. "Dad, then I'll look to see if there are any medicinal materials nearby, when I came, I saw a bamboo forest in the west, it rained a few days ago, maybe there is a bamboo sun, bamboo sun is not only one of the eight treasures of grass, but also a precious medicinal material, I glanced at it in Hongjitang, the price of one or two dried bamboo sunflower is enough for two dollars of silver, and there are bamboo rats, I saw it in the backyard of Dongxing Building last time, and it must have been acquired."
"Then you pay attention to safety, forget about the bamboo rat, don't get bitten, Dad will go back and make a few sets to catch." Gu Chuanhai advised, he had already picked up an axe and found a one-foot-thick birch tree, and after a few axes, the birch tree was already trembling, and the big tree was about to fall.
Gu Yunyao also went to the bamboo forest, the bamboo forest is mostly bamboo, and the leaves and roots are medicinal materials, but Qizhou is rich in bamboo, and there is no pharmacy to buy bamboo leaves and roots.
The cultivation of rare medicinal materials is a compulsory course for the members of Yuetang, as long as they can find bamboo sunflowers, Gu Yunyao will have a way to cultivate a bunch of bamboo sunflowers, rare things are expensive, Gu Yunyao still remembers that the shopkeeper of Hongjitang courted her.
Gu Yunyao's eyes searched back and forth on the ground, any plant has its own living conditions, blind search is too inefficient, bamboo sunflower is a saprophytic fungus in the bamboo forest, and the decomposition of dead bamboo roots, bamboo poles and bamboo leaves is the source of nutrition.
Soon, Gu Yunyao found a fully ripe bamboo at the root of a dead bamboo that was only half a meter left.
Overjoyed, Gu Yunyao hurriedly used a firewood knife to dig out the bamboo roots, the spores of the fully mature bamboo sunflower have been thawed and cannot be used to reproduce, but the fungus cord of the bamboo sunflower is parasitic on this bamboo root, with this bamboo root, the bamboo sunflower can be cultivated, and the sun in the afternoon is no longer strong, which is suitable for transplantation.
Digging out the bamboo roots, Gu Yunyao took a lot of soil mixed with rotten bamboo leaves on the spot, put it in a thick layer in the back basket, and carefully collected the bamboo roots into the back basket, and covered it with a thick layer of bamboo leaves.
Continuing to search, Gu Yunyao soon found the second bamboo sunflower, the fungus skirt of this bamboo sunflower has not been fully opened, this state is the top grade purchased by the pharmacy, Gu Yunyao carefully picked this bamboo sunflower, and dug out the bamboo root again.
So repeatedly, in half an hour, Gu Yunyao dug up a full six bamboo sunflowers, and the bamboo roots also saved a lot in the back basket, and Gu Yunyao also dug up some bamboo shoots. Bamboo shoots that are common in spring are no longer common in early summer, but pickled bamboo shoots into sour bamboo shoots can also add a lot of color to the table of the father and daughter.
The back basket was half loaded, Gu Yunyao was just about to continue searching, suddenly, a sideways scarlet rushed into her field of vision, and without waiting for Gu Yunyao to react, suddenly, Gu Yunyao's ankle was grabbed and pulled hard, and Gu Yunyao's whole person fell forward.
"Ahh Gu Yunyao screamed in fright, the birds in the forest were suddenly frightened and flew away, Gu Chuanhai was cutting down trees, and when he heard his daughter screaming, he threw down the axe and rushed over.
"Yaoyao!" Gu Chuanhai rushed to him, and saw Gu Yunyao grinning with broken teeth, and Gu Yunyao's ankle was covered with a bloody palm.
Bang! Gu Chuanhai's heart shrank suddenly, Gu Yunyao turned over with difficulty, and saw a sixteen-year-old man under the bamboo leaf dying.
"Save ...... Help me......" The man's pupils were on the verge of collapse, his face was pale, and if it weren't for the fact that there were only three people here, this weak cry for help would not have been heard at all.
Gu Chuanhai hurriedly picked up the hand that the man was holding Gu Yunyao, and quickly picked up the bamboo leaves, the man was seriously injured, and Gu Chuanhai didn't dare to pull him easily.
Gu Yunyao looked at this person, although he was wearing coarse cloth clothes, but if he looked closely, this man's face was healthy wheat, even a little fair, his hair was black, he was nutritious and healthy, although his body could not be said to be strong, but it was by no means weak, Gu Yunyao grabbed the man's arm to check his pulse, and as soon as he pulled his arm, Gu Yunyao found that this man was a practitioner.
The muscles on the body are not abrupt, the lines are very soft, but they are absolutely strong, and there are thin calluses left by the use of cold weapons for many years.
The man's wound was on his waist, and it seemed to be a stone scratch, but Gu Yunyao just glanced at it and knew that it was the mark of a sawtooth knife, which was even more ferocious than a barbed arrow. In addition to his waist, there was also a blunt force wound on his head, which was caused by the man bleeding profusely and falling on a stone. Both wounds showed signs of inflammation and the blood had dried up, apparently more than two days old.
The man let Gu Yunyao fiddle, his eyes full of confusion.
"Daddy......" Gu Yunyao frowned, she didn't want to meddle in things, but Gu Chuanhai opened her mouth. Yaoyao, dad pushed the cart here, let's take him back. ”
Gu Yunyao put the man down, pulled Gu Chuanhai aside, and told Gu Chuanhai all the doubts, but Gu Chuanhai shook his head.
"Yaoyao, although our Dacang Dynasty is fighting, but the front line is far away, he is at most the child of a rich family who was killed, people can't see death without saving, you are a doctor, but also have the heart to hang the pot to help the world, besides, he has been injured for more than two days, an injured person can run so far, then obviously there is no one chasing him, the person who injured him is definitely not a bandit, the bandit will not let him go, let's take him back, and when he is well, just send him away."
Gu Yunyao sighed, okay, her father said so.
And this man's injury is so serious, he really wants to do something bad, she goes down with two silver needles, hehe~
