Chapter 7: The Blood of the Five Elements

Early in the morning, due to the noise of Wang Ertie's house, many neighbors also woke up. Some watched the excitement, and some went to help dissuade them, but when they saw that Wu Fu and the others were timid, everyone was afraid of getting into trouble.

Soon after the incident, the news that "Wu Fu made trouble with Wang Ertie's family early in the morning" and "Wang Ertie was bullied again" spread. Although the news spread, no one knew the inside story and the reason for the incident.

After Zhao Hu ate in the morning, on the way to the medicine field, he heard someone talking, and only then did he know that something had happened to Wang Ertie's family. He thought about it for a while, and seemed to have guessed some of the clues, so he hurriedly went to the backyard to shout Baili Qing, and hurriedly went to Wang Ertie's house to understand the situation.

When they got there, Zhao Hu and the others saw that Wang Ertie was still sitting on the ground, his arms were clasped in front of his knees, his eyes were blank, and he looked like he was dead.

The two walked up to Wang Ertie, squatted down, didn't say anything, let alone ask, just lowered their heads. After a while, Zhao Hu patted Wang Ertie on the shoulder, then stood up and walked towards the pillar and his mother. From the moment the two of them entered the door, the pillar had been crying quietly, and was comforted by his mother holding her head.

"Pillar, a man is not to cry, be strong. Obedient. ”

Zhao Hu touched the pillar's head, turned around and asked his mother what had happened. Listening to what Zhu Ziniang said, it was really the same as Zhao Hu's guess, and she had a bottom in her heart, but her brows were still tightly locked, and she seemed to be worried about something.

Zhao Hu returned to Wang Ertie, he didn't know what to say, all he could do was to sympathize with him, persuade him, encourage him, and everything would be fine. Because, he knew in his heart that there was only one Shuling Grass left, and he had to leave it to his son and Bailifeng. I had already given one strain to Wang Ertie before, and now it is impossible to give up the only strain. It is impossible for him to take the fate of his own children and other people's children as a price to make Wang Ertie happy. So, that's the only way to go.

However, Wang Ertie still seemed to have lost his soul, and completely ignored Zhao Hu's persuasion. Without blinking his eyes or expression, he sat there dumbfounded, motionless.

Wang Ertie, who has always loved to joke, also knew that he had achieved nothing, so he lived optimistically, in order to let his wife and son not worry about him. However, by chance, he got a share of Shuling Grass, which gave him a chance to let his family stand up from now on, but he fell back to the trough of life because of his recklessness. Whoever it is, I've already been heartbroken hundreds of times.

Baili Qing, who had not spoken since he entered the door, thought of this, hesitated, and finally said an astonishing sentence.

"Ertie, we can't get the spirit grass back. However, the seed of the Spirit Grass can give you one more. I have a way to make the Soul Grass produce one more seed!"

"Really...... True...... Really? Brother Qing. ”

When Wang Ertie heard this, his eyes blinked, and he finally had a little reaction, and said excitedly and suspiciously.

Zhao Hu was also stunned at first, thinking: Maybe Brother Qing comforted Ertie. Then, he also looked at Baili Qing in disbelief, looking forward to really having such a way.

"Okay, Ertie, life still has to be lived. When did I deceive you?"

Bai Liqing saw that Wang Ertie's eyes were shining again, and he asked a mocking rhetorical question, and smiled with satisfaction.

"No... No, never!"

Wang Ertie immediately stood up, helped Baili Qing, and walked into the house.

After tossing a few people all morning, they returned to the house, drank some tea and sat down. Bai Liqing looked at the eager eyes of several people, and quickly opened the conversation.

"Now the rest of the Soul Grass is in good condition, I'm sure it will produce two seeds. Indeed, watering with ordinary beast blood can smoothly cultivate two seeds. But now we need three. Therefore, the blood of the beast must be exchanged. I remember a book that recorded a special cultivation method, where the blood of the beast that watered the spirit grass was replaced by the blood of the five elements, and the cultivation was changed to soaking cultivation accordingly. In this way, it only takes one spring and autumn load to produce seeds, and there are as few as three and as many as five!"

"Brother Qing, what is the blood of the five elements?

Wang Ertie was both surprised and curious, stretched his neck a little, and asked eagerly.

"It's not that hard to say. It is recorded in the book that all things have spirituality, and animals also have corresponding attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, one of the five elements. Among them, the migratory bird belongs to wood, the dry bird belongs to fire, the terrestrial animals belong to earth, the land and water amphibians belong to gold, and the diving fish belong to water. As long as the blood of the five attribute animals is collected, and it must be the blood of a living animal. For convenience, duck blood is used for wood attributes, chicken blood is used for fire attributes, rabbit blood is used for earth attributes, and bullfrogs from our medicine field can be used for metal attributes. As for the water properties, it's a bit troublesome. There is very little blood in ordinary fish, so we have to go to the creek at the foot of Fengxiang Mountain to catch a few 'scaleless boys', that is, yellow eels. It has a lot of blood. When Bai Liqing said this, he stretched his waist, picked up the small tea bowl on the table, and took a sip.

"The rest is ......"

When Bai Liqing said this, he suddenly paused.

"Next, Brother Qing, let's do the next thing! I'll go to Fengxiang Mountain to catch yellow eels in a while, and the rest of us can be made together." Brother Qing, don't be busy, just wait for us at home. ”

Wang Ertie saw that Baili Qing's words were broken, and thought: Brother Qing must be inconvenient because of his body, he should be looking for someone to catch the yellow eel, he is embarrassed to speak, and he can't trouble Brother Qing anymore for this trivial matter. Thinking of this, Wang Ertie hurriedly picked up the conversation, just to make up for his mistakes.

Bailiqing picked up the small tea bowl and shook his head with a wry smile.

Is it laughing at Wang Ertie when he sees the wind and rain? Or is he laughing at his own meaning being misunderstood? No one knows. In fact, Baili Qing was just hesitating, and his words were interrupted by Wang Ertie, so he hid the half sentence of "leave it to me" in the bottom of his heart.

After that, Wang Ertie's family no longer had the previous despair, anxiety and helplessness, Wang Ertie and his wife regained their former optimism, and the pillar also burst into laughter.

Because it was imminent to collect the blood of the five elements, Zhao Hu and Wang Ertie acted separately.

As for Bailiqing, he walked towards his home alone. Bai Liqing, who had helped solve the problem, should be very happy, but along the way, his back became more and more bent, and his steps became heavier and heavier step by step. And the half sentence of "leave it to me" also completely weighed on his heart.
