On the uneven mountain road, more than a dozen children of different sizes shouted and shouted, and walked towards the mountain, sometimes picking flowers and attracting butterflies to startle a flock of birds, sometimes chasing and frolicking and destroying the green willow vegetation, and their immature faces were full of anticipation.

Due to their proximity to the mountains, the elders often warned them not to go in and out of the mountains and forests at will, because there are many birds and beasts on the mountain roads that will eat people.

However, curiosity is the nature of children, and the more they are not allowed to do something, the more they want to try it, and even some bold children want to fight a beast like their elders, so that parents will no longer worry about eating.

So when Long Yang, that is, their boss, announced that they would enter the mountain to do the task, they were not worried at all, but a little cheering. More than a dozen children walked all the way up the mountain, and Long Yang took the lead in front.

I saw him holding Xiao Ke'er in his left hand and a long wooden stick in his right hand, looking like he was always on guard. However, unlike the excitement and anticipation of other children, Long Yang's face was full of sorrow.

Because he didn't come to play, but to find a medicinal herb: Poria cocos. I heard my mother say that I moved to this small village when I was born, because of the impermanence of rain in the mountains, the damp place of residence, and the old age of the grandfather, I got a strange disease, and the treatment has been fruitless. Once I overheard the old man in the village say that Poria cocos grass is fire, and boiling it into tea can cure yin and cold diseases, so he secretly wrote down the name of the medicine, and he must find this grass to cure his grandfather who loves himself.

Of course, Long Yang doesn't think that one or two plants can cure the disease, so there is a matter of defeating the stone to be the boss, Long Yang thinks that the strength of the people is great, and the chance of finding the herb is great, as for the fierce birds and beasts, Long Yang also thinks that this is a small trick for adults to prevent children from running around, which is not worth mentioning.

"Hmph, you want to lie to us, no way. Long Yang thought so. Thinking about Poria Cocos in his heart, Long Yang stopped and asked loudly, "Which of you knows Poria Cocos Grass for curing Yin and Cold Diseases?"

"What? Poria grass!" one of the little friends, Tuanzi, looked stunned.

Long Yang heard the sound and looked over, the first thing that caught his eye was a meat ball, his small eyes were squinted, his small stomach was upright, his neck was completely invisible, and his head and body were like a snowman, and the small ball was on the big ball, which was extremely funny.

"Tuanzi, have you seen it?" asked Long Yang.

Danzi made a thoughtful look, his little hand touched his ball-like head, and his little eyes narrowed into a slit, "Oh, I remember, my father once saw one, and he said that Poria cocos grass grows in sunny places, cliff edges, and open spaces. ”

Then, the dango said, "Poria grass grows very strangely, there is not a single leaf on the whole, it is green, like a poplar tree that has shrunk many times, it is very recognizable." ”

Xiaoyang thought for a while, and said to the children, "Now everyone is scattered and looking for Poria grass, whoever finds it, notify me immediately." ”

"Okay, let's find Poria grass!" The children dispersed in a hurry, obviously completely carrying out the order of Xiao Yang, the boss, Xiao Ke'er was led by Long Yang due to his young age.

But the little guy had a shy little face, and said to Long Yang in an old-fashioned manner: "Mom said that the mountains are too dangerous, what should I do if I encounter a big insect?" But he said: "Ke'er is not afraid, the stone is so powerful that it can't beat me, let alone the big worm." ”

"Besides, no matter how big a bug is, it's a bug. ”

That's right, Brother Xiaoyang is very powerful: "Look, butterfly!" Xiao Ke'er found a big butterfly and immediately shook off Xiaoyang's hand and went to chase the butterfly.

It is an uncovered mountain, which traverses two mountains, and from a distance, one of them is rich in vegetation, and thousands of years of trees can be seen everywhere, they cross the sky and shade the sky, and the thick vines in the woods are all over the ground, and the rocky mountains are flocked, and the occasional low roar of wild beasts can be heard in the depths, which is breathtaking.

On the other hand, the vegetation is slightly sparse and occasionally human footprints can be seen. Just outside the edge of the mountain, there is a large crack about 100 meters wide, and the cliffs are neatly arranged like a row, as if they were artificially excavated.

Just below this cliff, there is a flat land, about ten meters wide, in the center of the flat ground a green grass quietly rooted here, look carefully, you will find that this grass looks very peculiar, only to see it all leafless, small and exquisite, as if the shrinkage of countless times of the leafless green wood, if the group and other children here, will definitely exclaim, because this is the main goal of Longyang and his party - Poria cocos.

The breeze blew, the dust was flying, the grass was swaying in the wind, and suddenly, a tiger covered in spotted stripes sprang out.

He crossed his ears and patrolled back and forth with the tiger head with the word "king", especially on the Poria cocos grass, as if he was guarding it.

Then, when it realized that there was nothing wrong, it turned around and "disappeared" again. It turned out that there was a large hole in the rock wall near the flat ground, and the spotted tiger stayed in it. Looking down from above, you can only see a lonely Poria grass, but there is no trace of a tiger!

......

In the jungle covered by green branches and green leaves, there were laughter and scolding from time to time, and a group of children searched from far and near. He was elated and excited. Suddenly, a tall stone came running from the front: "Boss, the dog baby and I saw a hare grazing, and I asked the dog baby to keep an eye on it." Let's go catch it, we have game to eat today. ”

Long Yang was very depressed, he wandered around in this forest for a long time and didn't see any Poria grass, when he heard that the stone was actually going to catch a hare, and he didn't look for Poria grass seriously, he was immediately angry: "Stone, why don't you come to catch rabbits, go find Poria grass!"

The stone scratched his head and walked away stupidly, muttering in his mouth, is it wrong to find a rabbit? After a while, Long Yang was a little discouraged, will there be Poria grass here? Thinking about it, the little face unconsciously became sad, thinking of his grandfather's illness, his heart was even more depressed and entangled.

Just when Longyang was sad, the stone came again: "Boss, it's all to blame for the dog baby, he scared the rabbit away, and he also fell a big heel, ha, ha, ha, you didn't see his bear-like, laughed at me, haha." ”

The stone kept laughing, leaning forward and back, but he didn't see Xiaoyang's face, it turned completely black, which was angry.

"Stone" Long Yang shouted, and suddenly "quacked" to startle countless wild ducks, and the stone was stunned all of a sudden, but because the laughter was suddenly interrupted, his face was flushed, whether he laughed or not, he was uncomfortable to death! Long Yang, who had a black face, rolled up his cuffs and said word by word: "Don't force me, beat you like a bear." ”

Stone went from surprise to surprise, "What's going on?" He scratched his head, he really didn't know why, but suddenly he seemed to think of something, he slapped his head, "That's right, it's a hare!" He remembered, he was angry at the mention of the hare boss before, yes! It must be a hare, as for why the boss was angry with the hare, he didn't care, he just knew that the rabbit had suffered and must be caught

After thinking about the ins and outs, he immediately ran to the original path: "Culprit, you're finished." The stone screamed as he ran.

But as soon as Long Yang heard his nonsense, he suddenly couldn't stand it, and he couldn't help but scold in the direction of the stone: "Ya, do you like rabbits very much?

In the blink of an eye, they had been in the mountains for half a day, and it was almost noon, and some of the children began to complain that they were hungry.

Long Yang took Xiao Ke'er's hand and walked aimlessly, the spring wind was exceptionally warm, but his heart was extremely bitter, "Wake up grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely find Poria cocos to cure your illness." ”

At this time, Xiao Yang saw the stone running over again from a distance, only to see that he was disheveled, gray-headed, and looked extremely embarrassed. Soon he ran to Long Yang, "Huh" He panted loudly, and then shouted loudly "Rabbit, rabbit......"

Long Yang couldn't hold back any longer, and scolded: "You bastard, if I don't beat you into a rabbit today, I'm not a fucking rabbit, I'm not your boss!"

"Wait, rabbit, no, it's Poria grass!" exclaimed the stone

Long Yang, who was about to raise his fist, heard Poria cocos grass, and he hurriedly withdrew his hand, "What?" He looked very puzzled.

"The dog and I chased the rabbit to a cliff, and the rabbit was gone, but we found Poria grass!" said the stone hurriedly.

"Are you sure it's Poria grass?" asked Xiao Yang unconvinced.

"It's true, it must be Poria cocos, it's green but doesn't have a leaf, I let the dog baby guard it!"
