Chapter 56: Daoyou
By the afternoon, she had climbed three mountains, and she had explored more than a dozen cliffs. Although the star grass is still missing, it is not for nothing.
Niutou Mountain is rich in products, there are not many medicinal herbs in the mountains, although there are often people who pick herbs into the mountains to collect medicines, but in those more steep mountain cliffs, there are still a lot of precious herbs to be found.
For Hua Ying, although these herbs are useless for cultivation after eating, they can be sold at a good price if they are sold on the market. If you want to walk the rivers and lakes, silver is naturally indispensable.
In the early days, although she had saved a little money, since the fertility of the land was insufficient, she rarely planted ordinary medicinal herbs in the jade pendant space to sell them.
Therefore, if Hua Ying wants to live in the future, it is naturally indispensable to be a medicine picker, and in addition to cultivation, it is also excellent to occasionally go into the mountains to collect medicine.
It's not easy to live alone, there is no one around to take care of her, and everything will have to rely on her in the future.
"This neem plant may be worth five taels of silver."
Hua Ying stepped on another herb on the side of the mountain, and casually received the jade peri hanging from her neck.
This jade is easy to use, you can store and take out some items at any time, and the herbs stored in it will not wither for a long time, even after a few months, it will still be as if it has just been pulled out of the soil.
It's magical.
However, the only things that can be stored are dead things such as tables, chairs, benches, and plants such as herbs, but living things such as rabbits, cats, cats, and dogs cannot be included.
Hua Ying didn't understand this.
She knew too little about this mysterious jade pendant, and there were too many unsolved mysteries waiting for her to explore, and she couldn't figure it out for a while.
After picking a few more herbs, Hua Ying stopped staying at this cliff and walked towards the next mountain forest.
It is strange to say that after walking in the mountains for so long, she has not encountered any danger at all, let alone a fierce mountain beast, not even a little rabbit and a little fox.
Just as she was wondering about this, there was a slight noise in front of her.
"Someone."
Hua Ying was slightly startled in her heart, she heard it so clearly, it was clearly a human voice, it seemed that someone was talking in the woods in front.
Could it be the villagers of Qingniu Village? Or a medicine picker who goes into the mountains to collect medicine?
With the doubt in her heart, Hua Ying gradually held her breath, hid her breath, and slowly walked forward, hiding sideways behind a tree, and cast her eyes forward.
In the middle of a small clearing surrounded by trees, a group of five people, three men and two women, all young faces, seemed to be talking there.
It was too far away to hear clearly, Hua Ying only saw that the young man led by him was dressed in white, and his appearance was quite handsome, and he seemed to be a person who practiced martial arts.
No, it should be said that these five people all carried weapons, some carried knives and some carried swords, and one of them even held two swords.
These people don't look very easy to provoke, neither like medicine pickers, nor like ordinary martial artists, they suddenly came here, could it be that they also came for the star grass?
Thinking of this, Hua Ying's brows furrowed slightly, and she thought to herself for a moment, and then stretched out.
No matter where these people came from, in short, I have nothing to do with them, just bypass them. This Niutou Mountain is so big, the star grass will naturally belong to whoever finds it first, and they will do whatever they want.
So, just as Hua Ying no longer cared about these people and turned around to leave, the young man at the head suddenly turned his head in the direction of her.
"Since you have been here for a long time, why don't you come out and see it?"
"Huh?"
Hua Ying's body froze when she heard this, and her footsteps hanging in the air gradually fell.
Discovered?
Hua Ying was very confident that she had covered most of her aura just now, and it was normally impossible for anyone to find it, but why did the young man in white still notice it?
Why, then, did that man call himself a 'fellow Taoist'?
What does this mean?
Hua Ying hesitated, but the white-clothed young man on the other side spoke again.
"Although the aura of Daoyou is cleverly concealed, it is useless under the visit of my spiritual eye technique, so let's come out and see it."
What the hell is this man talking about?
Hua Ying was made in a fog by the young man's words, what is 'Spirit Eye Technique', is there still this kind of martial arts cheats on the rivers and lakes? Listening to the name seems to be ...... Exercises to improve your eyesight?
Although she was puzzled, she didn't choose to hide anymore, since she had been pointed out by the other party, wouldn't she seem to be a thief if she left at this time?
Immediately, Hua Ying appeared from behind the tree and slowly walked towards everyone.
When the young man in white saw that there was a strange girl with outstanding appearance and snow-white hair coming out of behind the tree, his eyes lit up, and he rushed forward after a few steps, and arched his hand:
"It turned out to be a fairy, so it's rude to be down there."
This person's face changed very quickly, obviously he was still gloomy before Hua Ying came out of the woods, but when he saw Hua Ying's true face, he immediately smiled and greeted politely.
"The fairy is here for the star condensation grass, if so, you might as well come with me. I see that the realm of fairy cultivation is not low, and one more person will take care of it, and I can be a little more sure of going to find the star condensation grass together. By the way, under the surname Xu, the name is Ming, if the fairy doesn't dislike it, just call me Xu Ming. ”
The young man in white called himself Xu Ming, and a lot of information was revealed in just a few sentences, which made Hua Ying's heart fluctuate and at the same time, she couldn't help but have more questions.
Star Solids? Could it be the actual name of the star grass?
"By the way, I don't know the name of the fairy, can you tell me ...... below?"
"Li Ying."
Hua Yingguan saw this person's flamboyant tongue, and as soon as they met, they were extremely flattering to themselves, and they immediately became disgusted, so they didn't reveal their real names.
Ordinary women also deserve to be called 'fairy'? How did he say it!
"It turned out to be Fairy Li, haha, today you and I met and we are also fateful, in the vast mountains and forests, I just let the fairy bump into us, wonderful. By the way, I don't know how the fairy thinks about it, since there is such a fate, why not act with us? These Daoists behind me are all good at cultivating qi at the second and third levels, and they will definitely not drag the fairy back. ”
"Xu... Fellow Daoists, don't mention the word 'fairy' again. ”
Hua Ying learned the other party's rhetoric and called the other party a Taoist friend. She didn't know the specific meaning of these two words, but it was better than calling them by their first names, so she learned to use them.
Xu Ming was calling a fairy, she was quite dissatisfied in her heart, she always felt that he was teasing herself, how could she keep calling people 'fairy' when they first met.
As a martial arts person, Hua Ying really found it difficult to accept this title that she had only seen in mythological novels before, and she felt very awkward.
If you want to shout, you can call a woman, how nice this is.
