Chapter 13 Radix Radix
Otherwise, even if the mountain rats are particularly good at burrowing, there is no way to break the prohibition here.
The prohibition here happened to be lost over a long period of time, and it was only because it was loosened a little, and a small corner was unexpectedly exposed, so that the mountain rat Mingrui noticed an obvious loophole.
But even if other people or monsters find out that this place is different, it is difficult to enter it, but the small mountain mouse is different, and its size is large enough to get into it.
Let's start with what is a ban?
It is usually a spell used by cultivators to seal or protect their caves and important items, but as a long time passes, the prohibition will loosen somewhat.
When the ancient great power planted the "Soul Eater Grass" to nourish his soul, he surrounded the "Soul Eater Grass" with a wooden stake, and put a forbidden spell on the stake to strengthen the protection of the "Soul Eater Grass".
And the "Soul Eater Grass" has the effect of nourishing and strengthening one's own soul, so it will reject the soul that is forcibly taken away by outsiders, and can even directly anesthetize the foreign soul and fall asleep.
At this time, Dumb, who was standing at the foot of the mountain, watched the mouse's every move, even if he wanted to help at this time, he was helpless for a while, so he had to wait patiently.
The position of that mountain is relatively high and steep, and there is no place to stand nearby, not to mention that Dumb wants to help, but it is very difficult to go up.
Fortunately, this stump is a little old, not thousands of years but five or six hundred years, and it was bitten off by a mountain mouse in a few clicks.
Suddenly!
A small hole appeared, barely large enough for the small size of the mouse.
If you change to another demon beast, you won't be able to enter it even if you find that this prohibition is loose.
The mountain rat turned around and glanced at the small "squeak" in the sky, indicating that he was not running away, and the "Soul Eater Grass" was inside.
Xiaoyi "chirped" in the sky, indicating that he understood.
The mountain rat "swished" and drilled into the hole in the stake......
Taking advantage of the time when the mountain rat got in, Dumb looked around and kept an eye on it.
"Huh!"
Not far away, there were a few earthy yellow herb leaves swaying in the wind.
I don't know if this place can be blown away by the mountain wind in the middle of the mountain, it's really a bit incredible.
It seems that these herbs are still growing well under the rocks.
Dumb was secretly happy in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that there were such high-grade herbs as "Tuxuan Shen" in this place.
"Soil Radix Radix" is considered the lowest herb in the Radix Radix family, but even so, its value is not comparable to other inferior herbs.
If the bergamot picked by the hunting team in "Qiansong Mountain" today is a low-grade herb, then "Tuxuan Shenshen" is at least the top grade of medium-grade herbs, and even in the eyes of some people, it can reach the quality of high-grade herbs.
In comparison, the price of "local ginseng" is naturally far more than bergamot.
However, these "Tuxuan ginseng" not only grow in a relatively remote location, but also grow on the cliffs, which is not something that ordinary herb pickers can pick.
The price of "Tuxuan ginseng" is not cheap.
Even if the hunting team traveled so far this way, all the herbs obtained from picking, plus other hunting results along the way, may not be expensive from a single "Tuxuan ginseng".
I don't dare to say that these few "Tuxuan ginseng" will definitely be able to keep Li's father's injuries intact, but at least Dumb can take Li's father to the town to find Langzhong for treatment.
It can't be said that the healed is seven-seven-eighty-eight, but at least Li's father's injuries have alleviated some pain, and the chance of recovery has become promising.
But!
Even if Dumb wants to climb the cliff to pick, there is no way, and the "Tuxuan Ginseng" grows almost halfway up the mountain.
Such a high position was not something he could climb.
Dumb's heart moved, and if he can't pick it himself, it doesn't mean that Xiaoyi can't pick it!
I immediately wanted Xiao Yi to help pick it, but I thought that the mountain rat had been burrowing under the stump for a while, so I had to wait for the mountain mouse to come out.
"Soul Eater" is the number one priority these days.
As long as you can get rid of the wisp of soul of ancient power, you can say anything.
Don't say it's "Earth Radix Ginseng", it's the more expensive "Iron Ginseng", "Silver Ginseng", and even "Golden Ginseng" Dumb can find a way to get it slowly.
If the "Soul Eater Grass" can't handle it, everything will be in vain.
Even have to live in a nightmare like a dream for an unknown number of lifetimes.
"wow!"
When I was thinking about it and wandering in the sky, I suddenly accidentally noticed a little bright red coming out of the hole that the mountain rat had just entered.
As Dumb looked closely, he noticed that the red color was coming out of the cave entrance more and more.
It turned out to be a mountain rat pushing and pulling behind the entrance of the cave, Xiao Yi immediately noticed the abnormality, and hurriedly flew forward to cooperate with the tacit understanding to pull the bright red herb out of the hole.
A pair of "goo-goo" eyes were exposed at the entrance of the cave, as if asking if Xiao Yi was this herb?
"Chirp, tweet!"
Xiao Yi waved his golden wings, grabbed the bright red herb and flew happily in front of Dumb.
"Soul Eater?"
Dumb was overjoyed, and when he saw such a bright red, he immediately burst into joy.
Sure enough, just like the scene in last night's dream, it was indeed this bright red "Soul Eater Grass".
"Chirp, tweet!"
Xiaoyi noticed Dumb's expression and immediately understood that he had found the right herb.
Dumb smiled happily at Xiao Yi, and then told Xiao Yi the general meaning with a gesture.
Xiao Yi naturally comprehended it, knowing what it meant that Dumb was too little, and hurriedly "fluttered!" and flew towards the cliff again.
"Chirp!"
"Squeak!"
The eagle and the mouse communicated again for a short while, and the mountain rat immediately got in.
It didn't take long for another bright red "Soul Eater" to come out of the hole.
At this time, Dumb had already opened his mouth and tried to eat the first bite of "Soul Eater Grass".
This "Soul Eater" must be fresh when taken, and it is best to take it at the same time as picking, unless there is a special storage space that can be stored and stored, otherwise the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced.
Of course, if there is really no place to store it, try to eat it within a day or two to avoid drying up and rotting.
If it is really put for ten days and eight days, the problem is not too big.
The taste of "Soul Eater Grass" is not only not delicious, but also very bitter, and Dumb almost vomited out the bitter bile water after tasting the first bite.
Fortunately, when he knew that life and death were at stake right now, he ate three "Soul Eater Grasses" in one go.
It wasn't until he couldn't swallow it anymore that Xiao Yi went to inform the mountain rat to continue to make five more "Soul Eater Grasses" and then stopped.
Don't say you can't swallow it, I'm afraid I won't even be able to walk if I eat it now.
In most cases, normal people may not be able to swallow even one "Soul Eater Grass", but Dumb swallows three plants in one go.
This is also to be able to better deal with the wisp of soul of ancient power, and avoid the situation that the medicine is not effective enough, resulting in an unimaginable crisis.
That wisp of soul is powerful, Dumb has seen it in dreams.
That kind of powerful power that destroys the world can be said to have left a very deep impression on Dumb.
"Xiaoyi, find a way to pick those few soil cucumber plants. Dumb swallowed three "Soul Eater Grass", his face looked very pale, and waited until the mountain rat picked the five "Soul Eater Grass" again and put them into the medicine collection basket, and then pointed to the "Earth Ginseng" on the cliff not far away.
The brighter the colors of the animals and plants in the mountains, the more poisonous they are, whether they are poisonous snakes or poisonous weeds, the more delicate they are, the more poisonous they are.
In addition to being able to restrain the soul power, these three "Soul Eater Grasses" are not weak in toxicity, but they don't attack so quickly.
Fortunately, Dumb can still endure it for the time being, knowing that this is not the time to swallow the antidote.
For the time being, grit your teeth and push through, and wait for the wisp of soul of the ancient power to take the bait.
"Chirp!" Although Xiaoyi was a little worried about Dumb's situation, he still obeyed Dumb's orders very well.
Quickly flew to the cliff halfway up the mountainside, first used sharp claws to dig up the rocks around the soil ginseng, and then carefully picked all three soil ginseng plants.
The level of Xiaoyi's picking is still very high, and the three soil cucumbers and ginseng with roots were picked together, without damaging the roots at all.
Dumb carefully put the three Tuxuan ginseng in the medicine basket he carried, and at the same time thought about it and put five "Soul Eater Grass" on it, because the five "Soul Eater Grass" Dumb didn't want to bring them into the Xiuzhen Cave Mansion.
The three "Soul Devouring Grasses" eaten in the body may not be detected by the wisps of the soul of the ancient power, but if they are directly placed in the medicine collection basket without covering it up, I believe that the other party will be able to detect it.
This is naturally extremely dangerous, so Dumb plans to let Xiao Yi help take care of it before he finds the hunting team.
Anyway, many demon beasts like "Soul Eater Grass" don't like this smell, even if they are thrown on the ground, no demon beast will pay attention to it, otherwise how could the mountain rat wait until today to pick it, it would have been gnawed by it a long time ago.
"Squeak!"
Just as Dumb was about to return with Xiaoyi and rendezvous with the hunting team, the mountain rat actually galloped over.
After a while, he looked at the little difference in the sky, and then walked around Dumb twice.
As soon as he saw what the other party meant, Dumb immediately understood in his heart that this little guy was also relying on himself.
Although it didn't understand why such a powerful golden eagle would rely on Dumb, it was always right to think that it was a weak mountain rat and Dumb.
"Chirp!" Xiao Yi also seems to be pleading for the mouse, and seems to want to find a playmate or a little brother.
After a careful observation, the whole body was neither white nor silver-gray, it seemed to be a bit like the color of platinum, and there was no variegation on the whole body.
Dumb also noticed that this mountain rat was unusual, at least it was not as dirty as expected, and it looked quite clean.
