Chapter 11: This Wave of Losses Is Big
"Going to the Black Forest to collect medicine? You? Pipe dream! Mrs. An flicked her sleeves, thinking that the woman in front of her probably had a problem with her brain. In a place like the Black Forest, let alone a weak woman like her, even an ordinary man in the prime of life would not dare to enter at will. Generally, those who dare to enter are monks with cultivation.
Ling Ruo had a headache: Talking nonsense is not about the topic, is it trying to bargain? So, how much do you want, but give me a sure number!
After thinking about it, she decided to increase the size, and when Mrs. An was not paying attention, she took out a large ham from the Guangyang Immortal Mansion.
Why Big Ham? The main thing was that Ling Gui's kid yesterday, when he was rummaging things at her house, he kept shouting: "Big ham!" Big ham! Ling Ruo felt that this thing was worth a little money, and it should be able to impress Mrs. An. If she can't do it, there's no way, and that's the only thing she can do now.
Before Mrs. An could speak again, Ling Ruo handed the big ham to her: "This, is it worth teaching me how many herbs to recognize?" Preferably endemic to the Black Forest. ”
Mrs. An is so greedy, this big ham is worth a few taels of silver, and it has been sent to her, where can it be pushed.
With a roll of her eyes, Mrs. An secretly said in her heart: She is a weak woman who has not been refined, even if I teach her to recognize herbs, she may not really dare to go into the Black Forest to die, it is estimated that she will come back after turning around on the edge, and teaching her will not harm her. Besides, in a short period of time, whether she can learn what I teach is still two words.
So, Mrs. An took the big ham with peace of mind and took Ling Ruo to the backyard of the pharmacy. In the backyard, there are large wooden shelves, divided into several layers, and dustpans filled with herbs are spread.
"This is Anxin orchid, which is the most common herb in the Black Forest. It is sweet and can be used in various requiem prescriptions. It is best to pick the whole plant. This is ......."
Mrs. Ann introduced the past one by one. She kept talking and her eyes were secretly aimed at Ling Ruo.
I saw the woman, obediently following her without saying a word, picking up the herbs from time to time to touch and smell, looking serious and studious.
Mrs. An said more than a dozen herbs in one breath, and she didn't see Ling Ruo ask questions or ask her to pause first, so she couldn't help but ask: "Have you memorized all the herbs you just said?" ”
Ling Ruo nodded, "Remember." ”
Mrs. An is going to be laughed at angrily, in less than a pillar of incense, remember more than a dozen herbs? No way! That kind of ability to remember will not appear in ordinary people at all, unless it is a monk who has reached the foundation and connected his consciousness to the sea of knowledge.
Back then, she was sold to the An family as a medicine tester at the age of seven, because of her talent and intelligence, she could memorize ten kinds of herbs a day, which shocked the entire An family, and finally was turned into a medicine boy by several elders in the clan, and she got rid of the fate of the drug tester who died by medicine at some point.
She has this kind of talent, she is already one in a million, and after living for nearly thirty years, Mrs. An has never seen someone with a higher talent than herself.
If the woman in front of her can really remember so many herbs at once in a short period of time, then she will teach her all what she has learned all her life! The kind that doesn't charge money yet!
With the idea of slapping her in the face, Mrs. Ann randomly pointed to an herb and asked her, "What kind of herb is this?" ”
Unexpectedly, Ling Ruo actually said all the introduction she had just made to this herb word for word.
Mrs. An's eyes widened in disbelief, and after a while, she pointed to two herbs that looked very similar and asked, "What about these two?" ”
Ling Ruo sniffed it in front of him, accurately distinguishing the two herbs, and also told them all about their effects.
Mrs. An was stunned now, the woman in front of her was really a genius who was more powerful than her? No, do you really want to teach her everything you have learned all your life? Or the free kind?
Ling Ruo saw that she hadn't moved for a long time, and motioned to her with her eyes not to waste everyone's time.
Mrs. Ann could only pinch her nose and continue to introduce one herb after another. Before she knew it, she had finished introducing the herbs unique to the Black Forest, but she didn't stop, as long as there were herbs in the backyard, she carefully taught the other party how to identify them and how effective they were.
When they came down in a circle, hundreds of herbs were introduced, and almost all the common herbs on the entire continent were included in it, and then the cold sweat on Mrs. An's head dripped down.
If this woman could really remember all the things she had just taught, then at least half of her abilities.
A big ham, teaching so many things, this wave is really a big loss!
"By the way, Li Weitian came here yesterday, did he want to find any herbs?"
Yesterday, after taking a bunch of food from other people, Ling Ruo couldn't help but want to repay the peach and plum, thinking that if he met something that the other party wanted in the Black Forest, he could help him pick some.
"You don't even know?!" Mrs. Ann was surprised.
"How would I know?" Ling Ruo frowned puzzled.
"No wonder you can't get by." Mrs. An looked at her with a smile, "Everyone in the entire Li'an Town knows that the eldest young master of the Li family has been begging to buy red-skinned water carrots, and the older the year, the better, it is a kind of spiritual grass that is very important for him to build a foundation." How can you say that you have also been his wife for a while, even if you are not a person who cultivates truth, but you don't know anything about such an important thing as your husband? You're too careless about him, aren't you? ”
The expression on Ling Ruo's face was a little unnatural. It's not her fault, it's the original Ling Ruo's problem!
Mrs. An continued: "Back then, the ancestor of the Li family successfully built the foundation because he got a hundred-year-old red-skinned water heart dill, and since then he has become an immortal. That old ancestor, not only the Li family, but also the first person to cultivate the truth in the entire Lijia Town, truly brought Li'an Town into the world of cultivation. ”
The immortals here do not refer to the real immortals in the immortal world where Ling Ruo lived before, but just a kind of honorific title for the cultivators in the mortal world.
"Sixty years ago, another ancestor of the Li family also used a fifty or sixty-year-old red-skinned heart dill to successfully build a foundation. This red-skinned water heart luo seems to have a special fate with their Li family. Now that Young Master Li is building a foundation, the red-skinned water heart of the old year is his first choice. The Li family has already placed a long-term order in our Ann's Pharmacy, and has been buying red-skinned water carrot for more than 50 years.
"It's just that the deeds of the ancestors of the Li family who have attained Taoism have spread too widely, and then the red-skinned water heart dills in the Black Forest were frantically picked. Now, let alone more than ten years, it may not be possible to find more than five years. Every time Young Master Li returns to the town, he will definitely come to my pharmacy to see if there is a spirit grass elixir suitable for him to build a foundation. It's a pity that every time I am disappointed. ”
