Chapter 105: Into the Mountains to Collect Medicine
Chapter 105 Entering the Mountains to Collect Medicine
A new day is coming, the golden crow rises in the east, the morning light is ten thousand ways, piercing the night, and the dawn is coming.
There are chickens crowing on the streets, and dogs barking, although the villages here are called Dog Village, Kennel Village and Dog Head Village, but there are not too many dogs, but there is a legend about the origin of the name of the village.
Legend has it that a long time ago, there were no human tracks here, there were wild grass and trees everywhere, only wild beasts lived here, at that time there was a powerful foreign dog, the size was comparable to a small mountain, the mountain was the king, it was the beast king of this area, and the beasts here all avoided it.
The beastmaster made a nest in the kennel village, swallowed the essence of heaven and earth to refine the body, and when the body was not refined, he lay on the ground and watched the tide rise and fall, and then it gave birth in the dog village, hence the name of the dog kennel village and the dog village.
But legends are legends after all, and there may be some truth, but there is no way to verify it, so it can only be heard as a story before and after bedtime.
Jiechen got up and washed, he was in much better spirits today, although his face was still pale, but he already had a little complexion.
Jiechen slept a lot, got up a little late, and when he went downstairs, Granny Ma, Liang Shuwen, and Cai Zongjie had already finished some things, and the two young apprentices were carrying a basket, and the three of them were going to the mountains to collect medicine, Jiechen hurriedly said that he was going too, Granny Ma nodded, and asked Jiechen to carry a basket on his back, and the four of them walked towards the mountain.
A winding mountain road, surrounded by half-man-high weeds, four people have cutters in their hands, cutting off the grass that is going to occupy the mountain road, the three dogs and the fat dog find it so interesting and have a lot of fun.
On the way, Granny Ma inspected the herbal medicine knowledge of the two apprentice teenagers, and at the same time asked Jie Zhen to review it, a yellow flower with three leaves was picked by Granny Ma, and the three dogs replied: "This is a three-yellow flower, there are three petals, the front of the petal is yellow, the reverse side is brown, the taste is bitter, no smell, can be used to treat headaches and dizziness symptoms." ”
Granny Ma poured the flower in her hand upside down, the reverse side of the petals of the flower is indeed brown, and it is indeed as Liang Shuwen said, the flower in Granny Ma's hand is undoubtedly a three-yellow flower.
The fat dog did not succeed in answering and was not discouraged, ready to go, the four of them continued to walk, and they also picked a lot of herbs on the way, and Granny Ma took out a seemingly ordinary root, which naturally meant that the two apprentice teenagers would explain what kind of medicine the branch she was holding in her hand was.
Sangou couldn't remember for a while, and the fat dog hurriedly said: "This is a black branch, which is bitter and sweet when sucked, and can be ground into powder to make medicine, and add yellow gas to make Zhengtian Pill to treat bloating and stomach pain." ”
The four of them continued to go up the mountain, and Jiechen didn't say anything, but they all listened attentively to the conversation between Granny Ma and them, and they could write down as much as they could.
Because Jieji really doesn't have much interest in medical skills, he should experience it, appreciate the subtleties in medical skills, and how much the combination of cultivation techniques and the combination of herbs in medical methods also have in common.
After Granny Ma asked the two apprentices a few more times, she didn't ask again, which was equivalent to being satisfied with this assessment, which was similar to the assessment spot check.
You have to be diligent in everything you do, just like before Granny Ma was rescued, she didn't know anything about medical skills, and her understanding and control of medical skills today also came from Granny Ma's diligence and inquiry
When the four of them climbed to the top of a mountain and looked towards the village, they could see the orderly houses, the hospital and the peach blossom tree, and then the beach and the vast sea.
But when the four of them looked back, there were higher mountains, one mountain higher than the other, but the top of this mountain was not their end, and Granny Ma said that at the top of the mountain in front of them, there was a herb that could not be picked back and planted.
Granny Ma used to think about the soil, but after digging up the herbs and planting them in the hospital with the soil, the herbs still did not survive, and Granny Ma judged that it was the sea breeze, which made the village too humid for that kind of herbs.
It wasn't until one day that Granny Ma went there after a rainy day and found that her inference was correct, but although that herb would die when exposed to water, it would regain its vitality within a day as soon as it was exposed to the sun, which was actually equivalent to a reincarnation, and it was no longer the original herb.
Those herbs that are close to the village can be picked by climbing a mountain road without planting them in the medical center, and those herbs that are not growing near the village need to be brought back to the medical center to be planted.
The kind of herbs that Granny Ma wants to pick are not close to the village, but they can't be brought back to the village to be planted, so they can only go over the mountains to pick them on the high mountains.
Because that herb grows because of the sun, so Ma Po named it Sunflower, the function of Sunflower is mainly to nourish the internal organs, provide blood and qi for the eater, and it is very effective for people who are weak.
As for why Granny Ma picked sunflowers, others may not know, but Jieji is very clear, it is all for him.
From morning to noon, the sun has been hanging in the sky, shooting down a blazing light, the four people who are collecting medicine in the mountains have begun to sweat, Jie Zhen because of physical fitness, only a few beads of sweat on the forehead, Granny Ma and Liang Shuwen are also a little hard, their clothes are slightly wet, the dog is a little miserable, the whole person seems to come out of the steamer, sweating profusely.
Fortunately, we finally arrived at our destination, and we climbed five or six mountains along the way, which can be said to be a long way.
I saw that on the top of this mountain, on a large piece of ground, the sunflowers bloomed unscrupulously under the sunlight.
When the fat dog saw that it had finally arrived, he immediately sat on the ground, panting, looking like he was loveless, and Granny Ma did not rest, so she began to pick sunflowers.
Granny Ma helped Granny Ma, a look of shame appeared on her face, and Granny Ma touched Grandma Ma's head, meaning that Marcus should not have a psychological burden.
Sangou took out the food and distributed it, the fat dog was really hungry, and immediately gobbled up the food, Jie Zhen took the food, and asked Granny Ma to stop what she was doing, and eat first to replenish her strength, Granny Ma knew that if he didn't stop, Jie Zhen would not eat, so he put down the picking work.
"Not to mention, the scenery here is pretty good. The fat dog sighed.
At a glance, although this mountain with sunflowers is already considered high, but when you look at the surrounding mountains, it is still a mountain that is higher than a mountain.
The high mountain cliffs, lush and lush, looking at a piece of green, look around, enjoy the majestic atmosphere between the mountains and rivers in the world, and the mountains are like giants, standing between heaven and earth.
Although Jie Zhen has no source power, his body is still the body of the Prosperous Realm, and he has eyesight that ordinary people can't reach, and he only sees a red flower growing on the cliff of a big mountain!
