Chapter 2 Collecting Medicine in the Mountains
Chapter 2: Collecting Medicine in the Mountains
In this way, every day in and out of the mountains, a week has passed, Mu Wenbin almost traveled all over the mountains and forests where he used to collect medicines, and also found a lot of wild herbs, what wild rehmannia, wild honeysuckle, but did not find more expensive medicinal materials, the best is to find a wild Ganoderma lucidum.
Because his grandfather is not young, he is almost seventy years old, and he does not let his grandfather enter the mountain again. Grandpa saw his grandson so persistently go into the mountains to collect medicine, he was very distressed, and discussed with him that if it didn't work, don't pick it, the medicinal materials in the nearby mountains have long been gone, only those deep mountains and old forests can be found, which are full of danger. But Mu Wenbin has been learning art in the mountains with his master since he was a child, although he has not been in the mountains for almost four years, but in order to make money, he still plans to try to go in, he promised his grandfather not to go too deep, if he really can't find it, then give up.
Early the next morning, Mu Wenbin carried dry food tools into the mountain, and today he planned to enter the deep mountains, but as he kept going deeper, Mu Wenbin also forgot how deep the mountain forest was. But the hard work paid off, and I did find a lot of precious medicinal materials, such as Panax notoginseng Ganoderma lucidum and He Shou Wu. In the afternoon, he climbed a small mountain all the way, and suddenly saw a wild ginseng on the other side of the mountain, which was at least fifty years old, but the side of the mountain where the wild ginseng was located was very steep, and there was a deep ravine under the mountain, and there were many plants like mosses growing on the slope, which was very slippery.
Thinking of his financial predicament, as long as he picks this wild mountain ginseng, his sister will go to college next year, and his living expenses will be paid, Mu Wenbin still plans to take the risk of collecting medicine. He carefully found a tree, tied a rope to the tree at one end and around his waist at the other, and then prepared to go down to collect ginseng.
Just about to go down, I seemed to see a black shadow flashing in a trance, could it be that there are other people in this deep mountain now besides myself? No, if someone suddenly disappeared again?
"Who's there?" Mu Wenbin shouted, but no one answered. He untied the rope, took the wooden hammer in his hand, and then slowly walked in the direction where he saw the black shadow, and after walking a few steps, he heard a noise in the grass, and suddenly a black boar ran out and ran in the other direction. Even though Mu Wenbin grew up in the mountains since he was a child, he was scared out of a cold sweat, it turned out to be a wild boar, which scared him.
Then Mu Wenbin returned to the tree and re-tied the rope and slowly climbed down the hillside, and after a few minutes, he climbed to the wild ginseng, and when he went to the front to carefully observe, he found that this wild ginseng was at least more than 100 years old, he was full of excitement, and immediately took out the medicine picking shovel to dig the medicine. But at this time, out of nowhere, a brown, black and white spotted snake more than one meter long came out.
"Seven-step snake" Mu Wenbin was shocked into a cold sweat again, how could there be such a poisonous snake in the north? But he didn't have time to think about this at all, and seeing the seven-step snake spitting out a letter and swimming towards him, he had to grasp the rope with his left hand, and keep waving at the seven-step snake with a medicine shovel in his right hand, trying to drive it away, but it seemed that it had no intention of retreating at all.
At this time, Mu Wenbin could only choose to give up collecting medicine first, and then crawl to the top of the mountain while driving away the seven-step snake, but at this time the rope suddenly broke.
The rope broke suddenly, and because the slope was very slippery, Mu Wenbin had nowhere to exert his strength and kept sliding downhill, fell into the ravine, and then lost consciousness. I don't know how long it took, Mu Wenbin felt carried by someone in a trance, but due to the severity of his injuries, he soon fell into a coma again.
