Chapter 836: Going down the mountain to collect medicine
Although there is a task for collecting medicine, it is generally not too strict, it is just a means to prevent disciples from being lazy, and if they are not lazy, they can generally be completed.
Like Su Wan'er, if she can't complete the task if she goes out early and returns late, there must be a problem, because she can't be lazy.
After some inquiry, Mo Wen learned that Wan'er's task was much heavier than others, and she needed to collect medicine for a month. Although nature is a big treasure house, and there are countless medicinal materials in the mountains and forests, there are many ancient martial arts sects in the Taihang Mountains, and there are so many sects that feed so many sects, even if the medicinal materials in the Taihang Mountains are rich, there will always be a day when they are all collected.
Moreover, those ancient martial arts sects have set the range of one hundred miles around the sect as their own private territory, prohibiting other ancient martial arts sects from collecting medicine, the location of the Five Tiger Sects, the distribution range of the ancient martial arts sects is relatively dense, there are many big sects around, those sects are kings, and disciples of other sects are not allowed to go to collect medicine, which leads to 80% less area where Wan'er can collect medicine.
Wuhumen is not a small sect, and the place it occupies is not small, but now it is winter, and the number of medicinal materials is far inferior to the spring when everything grows, not to mention that Wan'er collects medicine every day, and she has traveled all over the familiar places, and the difficulty of finding medicinal materials is also increasing every day.
With the scope of the Five Tiger Gates alone, it is quite difficult to complete the daily task, unless Wan'er goes to a farther distance, deep into the primeval forest of the Taihang Mountains, the distance is too far, and it will take a lot of time to go back and forth.
The door has door rules, and the Five Tiger Gate stipulates that if a disciple fails to complete the standard task five times during the period when he is responsible for collecting medicine, he will be abolished and driven out of the Five Tiger Gate. The punishment is severe, but in fact it is rare. Because the medicine collection cycle of Wuhumen is seven days, there will be shifts after seven days. Five out of seven days did not complete the task, which can only show that this person is particularly lazy and irresponsible, and it is reasonable to be expelled from the sect.
But Wan'er's current situation is special, not only is her task heavier, which is twice as heavy as usual, but also the medicine collection cycle is 30 days. As for why, Wan'er was vague and only said that she had made a mistake and was punished by the sect.
Mo Wen knew in his heart that Wan'er's punishment must have something to do with him. It's just that the kind Wan'er didn't say it. Mo Wen frowned, under normal circumstances, he would have taken Wan'er away directly, but now that his injuries have not healed, it is a little inconvenient to go, and he killed a peak of the blood clan, maybe at this time, there is already a blood clan looking for him to take revenge, and the cultivation has not recovered. Hiding in the Five Tiger Gates to recuperate from injuries is actually a good choice.
"Brother Mo, you rest early, I'll go back first."
After telling the grievances in her heart, Wan'er's suppressed feelings were much better. She wiped away her tears, got up and walked out. She was tired all day, and her body was already a little unbearable, and she had to get up early tomorrow to go down the mountain to collect medicine. There isn't much time that can give her a break.
"Wan'er, I'll accompany you down the mountain to collect medicine tomorrow." Mo Wen groaned for a moment and said suddenly.
"Huh?"
Wan'er paused for a moment. Then a little face became bitter, she guessed that Mo Wen wanted to help her, but collecting medicine is a technical job, people who don't know how to collect medicine will definitely not be able to collect medicinal materials in the mountains, and it is difficult to say whether Brother Mo knows medicinal materials or not. One more person does not necessarily mean more strength, and sometimes it is a drag.
"Brother Mo, I can do it alone, and Sister Wang Qian is willing to accompany me, don't accompany me if you are injured."
Wan'er said bitterly, and she didn't know how to refuse Mo Qian.
"What, don't believe Brother Mo? Brother Mo is a professional level, I accompanied adults to the mountain to collect medicine at the age of three, and I knew all kinds of medicinal materials, and at the age of seven, I went up the mountain alone to collect medicine, and I could smell the location of the medicinal materials from ten miles away......"
Mo Wen said with a smile, in the first few sentences, he didn't brag, he came from a medical family, he learned medical skills since he was a child, and collecting medicine is only the most basic ability. As for the last sentence...... Naturally, it is impossible for him to smell the smell of medicinal herbs from a distance of ten miles, and he is not a Howling Sky Divine Dog, but he has the power of divine sense, and the coverage of divine sense, if it is in a single direction, it is enough to reach ten miles away.
"It turns out that Brother Mo is so powerful!" Wan'er's eyes widened, she could smell the smell of medicinal herbs from ten miles away, didn't she brag?
But she couldn't see any traces of lying from Mo Wen's face, Wan'er was innocent and simple, but she had a seven-trick exquisite heart, and she could keenly detect other people's feelings, and she could see from other people's eyes whether others were lying, whether they were kind or malicious to her.
"If you don't believe me, you can take me to try it tomorrow, if I drag you down, you can go collect the medicine yourself, and I'll go back to the sect alone."
Mo Wen said with a smile, what he said was so exaggerated, it is estimated that only Wan'er would believe it, but he did not lie.
"I ...... I didn't...... That means...... Wan'er lowered her head, her little face slightly red.
"Okay, you go back and rest, I'll accompany you down the mountain tomorrow morning." Mo Wen said in an unquestionable tone.
Although his cultivation is not restored now, and there are still many problems on his body, but his ordinary life is no longer in the way, how strong his body is, even if he is injured, it is not just a person who can hurt him, the ancient martial artist under the Jindan realm, I am afraid that even his physical defense will not be broken.
"Oh." Wan'er stuck out her tongue, and she found that in front of Mo Wen, she couldn't afford to resist, so she could only nod obediently.
……
Early the next morning, Wan'er brought breakfast and decoction to Mo Wen as usual, the sky just had a little light, the forest was still dark, Wan'er got up early every day, especially recently, almost got up on the fifth watch.
Usually, Wan'er doesn't want to disturb Mo Wen's rest, so she quietly puts down her breakfast and decoction and leaves.
But today, Wan'er found that the lights were on in Mo Wen's room, and an oil lamp was on the table, and Mo Wen was sitting next to him.
"Brother Mo, you got up so early." Wan'er said in surprise, usually at this time, Mo Wen is sleeping.
"Aren't you going to accompany Wan'er down the mountain to collect medicine today?" Mo Wen smiled faintly, he couldn't sleep at all, and the reason why he sat at the table early was to tell Sù Wan'er that he was ready, and she was worried that he wouldn't sleep enough, so she deliberately didn't wake him up.
"Brother Mo, you are as good a person as Sister Wang Qian." Wan'er's little face smiled sweetly.
was given a good person card by Wan'er, Mo Wen shook his head funny, can he be a good person? It's just that he's not a bad guy either. In a certain way, although Mo Wen is a miracle doctor, he is not suitable to be a doctor, he does not have the quality of hanging a pot to help the world, and Wan'er is the most suitable person to be a doctor.
If he was not born in a family of medicine, but was born in a family of immortal cultivators, then he would definitely only have the Immortal Dao in his heart, and would not have cultivated medical skills.
After a simple breakfast, Mo Wen went out with Wan'er.
The areas where ordinary disciples live are all on the suspenseful cliffs on the side of the valley, so they have to go down the mountain when they go out. And in the valley, it is the inner disciples and core disciples of the Five Tiger Gate and the high-level living area of the sect, looking down from the cliff, you can vaguely see the scenery in the valley, the valley is not big, but the four seasons are like spring, the environment is quite good, the buildings inside are also magnificent, carved railings and jade, vermilion pillars and beams glazed tiles.
Wuhumen is a very old sect with some history, and the area around the Taihang Mountains is quite famous. The most famous is the Five Tigers Broken Door Knife, this knife technique is not a profound martial arts, just a basic knife technique, but it is very practical, suitable for some middle and low-level disciples. There are many Five Tiger Broken Door Knives in the martial arts, but the most authentic is the Five Tiger Gate knife technique.
The mountain gate of the Five Tiger Gate is at the entrance of the valley, which is piled up by many large stones, and the three words of the Five Tiger Gate are dragon flying and phoenix dancing, which is quite domineering and magnificent. Mo Wen and Wan'er went down the mountain, and they had to pass through the domineering mountain gate. At this moment, there was a figure standing under the mountain gate.
The person was none other than Wang Qian, who was not wearing a skirt, but a very strong coarse cloth shirt, which was suitable for walking in the mountains and forests.
"Sister Wang Qian."
Su Wan'er beckoned to Wang Qian from afar, in addition to Mo Qian, Wang Qian also decided to accompany Wan'er into the mountain to collect medicine this time, and had the intention to help Wan'er get through this difficulty.
Although she is just an ordinary disciple, she needs to complete some tasks in the sect, even sundries, and life in the mountains is all on her own, planting, breeding, weaving, carrying firewood and carrying water...... Everything needs to be done by yourself, and the high-level disciples of the sect and the inner disciples who focus on training will not do these chores, so they can only be done by ordinary disciples.
Every Guwu sect has strict rules, daily life can not intersect with the outside world, this rule has lasted for hundreds of years, and no sect dares to violate this rule, because this rule comes from Tianhua Palace.
The sect can have its own assets outside and can run a company, but it can't transport materials and manpower from the outside to the mountains. Moreover, the disciples of the Guwu Sect could not go to the city lightly, and if they had relatives outside, they could go home to visit their relatives once in three years, and each time could not exceed ten days.
Because of this restriction, some balances will be destroyed, and it is likely to be known to the whole world, and the ancient martial arts sect will no longer be able to hide in the mountains, and the order of society will also be destroyed.
Therefore, although there are many ancient martial arts sects, there are very few ancient martial artists who are active in the city, and those who are active in the city are either advanced in cultivation and have a certain degree of freedom, or they have a good family background and are not very restricted. There is also a category of traitors to the sect, who turned their backs on their sects, ignored the rules of the sect, and fled to the city to enjoy happiness. (To be continued......)
