Chapter 61: Gastrodia

A hare slipped through the weeds in the forest quickly, and at the same time, a small group of fresh vitality quickly crossed her senses and ran away, Wen Juan also understood that the active life group also represented animals, and compared with Shen Weiguo, it must be the bigger and more condensed vitality, and the representative is estimated to be a fierce big animal, which is the target they want to avoid. This is still a little different from the appearance of plant vitality.

Because they wanted to go into the deep mountains and old forests, they had to go deeper and deeper, for fear of being contaminated with the smell of blood and causing unnecessary trouble, Shen Weiguo also watched the moving meat ball run by, and easily let go without any action. Now, the most important thing for them is to find the medicinal materials they need, and protect the safety of him and Wen Juan, with a clear distinction between primary and secondary. On the way back, if he is lucky enough to meet again, he will unceremoniously add a good dish to the house, and his father and daughter-in-law just need good things to replenish their bodies!

Going deeper and deeper into the forest, along the undulating mountain road, and then they crossed most of the activities in the village, and the more inward, that is, after officially entering the Dabie Mountains, there was no road at all, Shen Weiguo directly put the back basket on his back, holding Wen Juan with one hand, and using the sickle prepared in advance from the back basket with the other hand to remove the trees, vines and weeds in the forest from time to time, and explore the road to move forward. Those soft insects are indispensable in the deep mountains and old forests, and they are the things that will kill if you are not careful, so you must be careful.

At this time, Shen Weiguo also cheered up and concentrated, and the thoughts of talking close to Wen Juan at the beginning were also temporarily suppressed and put on alert wholeheartedly. However, they had already entered the predetermined range, and Shen Weiguo also asked Wen Juan softly: "Daughter-in-law, where are we going next?" "It's obviously not okay to wander around without a purpose, he's okay to be vigilant, but he's not good at finding medicine.

Wen Juan also happened to want to try the ability of new stimulation, which is also a deep expansion of her sensitivity to the vitality of medicinal herbs, her detection and sensing range is quite wide, it seems that the diameter range of five to ten kilometers is in her induction, but she is not proficient in using it, everything is still trying.

She looked up at the light shining in the forest and searched for the lower position and said: "Whether it is mountain ginseng or Ganoderma lucidum, neither of them likes the strong sun very much, we have to go to the west, we have to find the shade of the place, the mountain ginseng likes the shade, the most loves the weak sunlight and soft soil with a large number of fallen leaves and dead branches piled up and rotten humus, Ganoderma lucidum needs a darker and more humid environment, it is best to grow in the roots of rotten trees or the roots of forest trees."

I remember my father said, further west over the depths of the mountainside, there is a large broad-leaved forest, there seems to be a rumor that someone has searched for the wild ginseng in the year, but it is too deep, ordinary people dare not enter, my father and I have not come in to take risks, just with you, there are earthen guns prepared, let's take a look inside! ”

That was also the place where the two main medicines she wanted were most likely to be found nearby, and they were now at least twenty or thirty miles away from the village in a straight line when they entered the mountain. And it's a long way to get there. However, they were ready to explore the forest for a day, so they had enough patience and were not in a hurry.

Along the way, Wen Juan showed according to the reflection of the senses, exploring the range of nearly ten meters, and those nearby vitality was small, but the dense and concentrated display had harvested a lot of good medicinal materials. Like hyssop, eucommia, poria cocos... These herbs are either very useful in daily life, or they can be used to treat leg diseases for my father-in-law, and they have further verified my ability to be familiar with her.

Considering that they still have to move forward, it is not good to carry too much weight, a small number of medicinal materials Wen Juan took out completely and put them in the medicine basket, and most of the medicinal materials were marked first, and then said that the most important thing for them was to look for the two main medicinal materials, and the others were incidental benefits.

Further on, there is a sparse connecting slope, which is a glade in the forest, belonging to the edge of a group of small shrubs, and in Wen Juan's induction, there is a small but rich vitality gathered here and there, as if the stars in the starry sky are as eye-catching. Looking at the environment closely, Wen Juan already knew what it was. A few steps further, I saw a familiar target, which confirmed Wen Juan's guess.

Luckily, their place happens to be the origin of gastrodia, and it is estimated that no one has come to venture into the mountains and forests with this nearby, and there is actually a large number of gastrodia hidden here. Now is the dormant period of gastrodia, the best time to harvest, and it is really for them to touch. Wen Juan found a corner, carefully picked up the soil layer with a medicine shovel, and dug out a few pieces of gastrodia, a big uniform and a red parrot beak, which is the embodiment of superior gastrodia, as far as her visual inspection and induction combined with estimation are concerned, it is dense, accumulated and spread for many years, and the yield here is not low!

Wen Juan couldn't help laughing and said: "Weiguo, our luck is good, there is such a piece of high-quality gastrodia here, turn around and slowly transport it out to dry it, and send it to the acquisition station, it is a good income, just to subsidize the family!" ”

The place where the station was acquired was something of value, and they basically bought it. However, in this place, the things that can be sent over and purchased are not too rich, a little game, and the medicinal herbs encountered near the mountains are all good things for the family to fill the household. This day hemp can be used to treat headaches and convulsions... Good things, extraordinary effect, but also good health care things, rich and upper-class people are always in demand, the price of the purchase station is not low.

She went with her father to send medicinal materials in exchange for money, if she remembers correctly, wild gastrodia should be wet five, six, seven or eight cents a catty, and the price of concocted dried gastrodia is higher, ranging from five or six yuan according to the quality. However, although they are the production area of gastrodia, they are not the main area, and few people dare to enter the deep mountains and old forests. She and her father collect medicine on weekdays, and they don't encounter many wild gastrodia, most of them are used by themselves in the village for medical treatment, and they are really rarely sent to sell to the purchase station!

"Hey, hey... The daughter-in-law is really capable! Although this area is no different from ordinary weeds for him, his observation is good, and he looks for the plants that his daughter-in-law has excavated, and there are many similar ones, and he can see them almost as far as his eyes can see! Combined with the fact that the daughter-in-law does not sigh easily, it must be really good if she can make her feel good, and in terms of rough estimates, the output is really not low! Shen Weiguo immediately smiled and praised him, his daughter-in-law is awesome!
