Volume 1 [Initial Cultivation] Chapter 66 Rules
Mu Yun dug up the stems of the wood, but the quality of the dug up was not very good.
Even if Mu Yun was already very careful, he still cut several rhizomes, but as a first-time herb picker, he was already very good.
Zhao Dong began to demonstrate to Mu Yun on a weed next to him, and after the experience, he listened to Zhao Dong's guidance and remembered it even more deeply.
Zhao Dong carefully peeled off the soil under the weeds, Zhao Dong confirmed the possible range of weeds' rhizomes, and drew a small circle on the entire range.
Zhao Dong's speed was much faster than Mu Yun's, and he didn't need to be as careful as Mu Yun, so he quickly picked up the soil on the rhizome.
Mu Yun saw Zhao Dong peel off the soil little by little, without touching the exposed rhizomes at all.
The rhizomes slid to the side as soon as the soil had been removed, and they didn't need to move as much as they had before.
Soon Zhao Dong completely stripped the weed from the soil, without harming any rhizomes at all.
Looking at this weed, Mu Yun looked at Zhao Dong's eyes and couldn't stop the admiration at all.
"Okay, I'll help you lock up the medicinal properties of this herb of yours. Otherwise, if the night passes, only half of it will be left. Zhao Dong threw away the weeds in his hand as he spoke, and took the wood stem in Mu Yun's hand.
Zhao Dong lit the fire fold he got from the Mu family and burned the broken part black.
Crush the juice from the weeds next to it, put that part into the juice, and then make sure that it is safe to lock the effect of the medicine before returning it to Muyun.
Ordinary herbs are not so troublesome at all, mainly because the effective part of the stemming of this plant is those rhizomes and the like.
In the next time, Zhao Dong took Mu Yun all the way to learn how to pick herbs, although it was useless for Zhao Dong, but for Mu Yun, they were all treasures.
Following Zhao Dong along the way, Mu Yun felt that it was the same as picking up money, and the value of the medicinal materials collected along the way had exceeded ten taels of silver, which was enough for their family to live a good life for a while.
Zhao Dong didn't care much about these silver taels and the like at all, because these things were not applicable to him at all.
There are indeed a lot of good things here in the imperial capital, but the things in the cultivation realm here are all traded with spirit stones.
Zhao Dong has not had any spirit stones at all since he was robbed by the drunkard, and the offering was also detained because of the drunkard.
In this way, he didn't have any source of spirit stones at all, even if he finally had some spirit stones, he would use them for cultivation.
Therefore, Zhao Dong can only look at those good things and have no way, and Yinliang can't buy those things, so he can only use them for him.
It was almost dark, and Zhao Dong took Mu Yun back to Mu's house.
Mu Yuanzheng was still working in the fields at this time, and he did not come back, and the shepherd's wife was the only one in the house.
Seeing Mu Yun come back with a bunch of medicinal herbs, Mu Yun couldn't figure out what they were doing.
"Mother, Brother Zhao, take me to collect medicinal herbs today. ”
Mu Yun carefully put down these medicinal materials, for fear that one of his own carelessness would cause these medicinal materials to be lost.
"This?" The shepherd wife looked at Zhao Dong a little strangely, she didn't know why Zhao Dong was making so many medicinal herbs.
She really didn't know the value of these herbs at all, and she hadn't touched them, she just thought they were some weeds or something.
"Mother, don't underestimate these things, these things are worth almost ten taels of silver. ”
The shepherd's wife was shocked when she heard that such an inconspicuous thing was worth ten taels of silver, and ten taels of silver was enough for their family to live for a long time.
The shepherd's wife pulled Mu Yun aside and asked him about today's situation.
After a general understanding, the shepherd's wife also knew that Zhao Dong's words yesterday were not just casual words.
Although the shepherd's wife felt that Zhao Dongren looked good, she didn't take Zhao Dong's words to heart, and only said nothing when Zhao Dong was just a moment of gratitude.
But now that the facts are already in front of her eyes, the shepherd's wife has to believe it.
"Little brother, you have a good rest here, sister-in-law, I'm going to get busy first, your eldest brother is coming back soon, and you have to prepare the meal as soon as possible." ”
The shepherd's wife is also very busy at this time, and her busy work is not much easier than the pastoral expedition.
It is precisely because of her presence in the house that everything looks so well organized.
Zhao Dong and Mu Yun came to the river to clean the filth on their bodies, and at this time they met Lang Zhong, who had treated Zhao Dong before.
"Brother Zhao, it was Li Langzhong who cured you before. Mu Yun pointed at Li Langzhong and said to Zhao Dong.
Li Langzhong also looked over at this time because of Mu Yun's voice, and Zhao Dong hurriedly bowed and saluted.
"In Xia Zhao Dong, there is more Li Langzhong's life-saving grace. ”
Li Langzhong did not refuse Zhao Dong's thanks, he had saved lives and helped the injured for many years, and he was already familiar with such a situation.
"Li Langzhong, Brother Zhao and I picked a lot of medicinal materials today, those medicinal materials are so valuable. ”
Mu Yun is a child after all, he can't hide anything, and when he sees a familiar person, he tells him directly.
"Unexpectedly, this little brother, you are also a person familiar with pharmacology. ”
Li Langzhong really didn't see that Zhao Dong was a person who understood pharmacology, and when he treated Zhao Dong before, he didn't smell the smell of mixed herbs from Zhao Dong.
"It's nothing, it's just a little bit of skin, and there is no way to compare with you in Li Langzhong. Li Langzhong enjoyed Zhao Dong's flattery very much, which also came from his self-confidence in practicing medicine for many years.
"Hey, Li Langzhong, what are you going to do?" Mu Yuanzheng also came back from the ground at this time, and happened to see Li Langzhong chatting with Zhao Dong here.
"I, what can I do, isn't this going to the next village to treat the patient, after the treatment, won't I go back?" "Li Langzhong has lived in the village for decades, and he is also very familiar with Mu Yuanzheng.
"Then Li Langzhong, you must not have eaten yet, go to my house and eat together. ”
Mu Yuanzheng directly invited Li Langzhong to his home for dinner, Li Langzhong shirked it for a while, and if he couldn't shirk it, he could only be disrespectful.
A group of four people came to Mu's house, and the shepherd's wife had not yet processed all the meals at this time, so she could only wait patiently before eating.
At this time, Li Langzhong smelled the breath of the medicinal herbs that Zhao Dong and they picked today, and followed the breath to the side of the medicinal herbs that Zhao Dong and they picked today.
After seeing this pile of medicinal materials, Li Langzhong thought that Mu Yuanzheng had put them like this casually, and he came to his side with some anger.
"Mu Yuanzheng, you guy can just put the medicinal herbs there casually, don't you know that the preservation of medicinal materials needs to be stored carefully?"
Mu Yuanzheng looked at Li Langzhong, who was a little angry, and was a little confused, what kind of medicinal materials? When did he have medicinal materials in his house?
"That, what kind of medicinal herbs are you talking about, Li Langzhong? I don't have any medicinal herbs in my house at all. ”
Hearing that Mu Yuanzheng was still arguing here, Li Langzhong directly took him to the front of the medicinal materials, wanting him to take a good look and see how he continued to open his eyes and talk nonsense.
"What is this? Is this a medicinal herb?" Although Mu Yuanzheng smelled a fragrance rushing to his face, the medicinal materials he had seen before were all dried and cut, so he didn't know if these things were medicinal herbs at all.
"You, you, you. "The angry Li Langzhong said three of you in a row, if he hadn't been able to defeat Mu Yuanzheng, maybe he would have started to fight with him at this time.
"Dad, what are you doing here?" At this time, Mu Yun came to the two of them, and looked at the tense people who couldn't figure out what was wrong with them.
"Yun'er, come over and tell my dad what these things are. Seeing Mu Yuanzheng pointing to the medicinal herbs, Mu Yun only thought at this time that he hadn't had time to talk to him.
"Is this the medicinal herb that Brother Zhao picked back when he taught me to collect medicine today, and Brother Zhao also said that these can be sold for ten taels of silver." ”
Hearing Mu Yun's words, Mu Yuanzheng was also as shocked as his wife, such a little thing could be sold at such a high price.
"I'll tell you that it's still a conservative estimate, the quality of these medicinal materials is good, even if you sell a few more taels of silver, it's no problem. "Li Langzhong is an expert in this area, and he knows a lot more about the value of these medicinal materials than Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong only knew a rough idea, after all, although he had collected herbs before, the ones he collected were all effective for himself, and most of the rest were fed to Han, so he was not very clear about the specific price of herbs.
"The meal is ready, why are you all waiting there?" The shepherd's wife beckoned everyone to eat together at this time, and even the old man who had not been seated to eat before came over at this time.
Before, Zhao Dong was a guest, and the old man was embarrassed to come out, but now that Li Langzhong is here, he can't come out.
Li Langzhong has saved the lives of many people in the village, and if the old man doesn't come out, he will look down on him a little.
Li Langzhong can't be regarded as a guest, but is equivalent to their family, and if he poses in front of his own family, it really seems that he is an old man who is a little faceless.
The old man of the Mu family is Mu Yuanzheng's father, and the pressure of life has crushed his body, and his waist is so bent that he can't even straighten up.
There are already some black spots on the face, which will slowly appear when people get older, and they are also called age spots.
If it was a little girl who hadn't seen him before, she might be startled, but Zhao Dongdu, who almost died twice, naturally wouldn't be afraid of these.
"I'm here to compensate Nephew Zhao, my old guy didn't come out to receive you before. Although the old man was not very good, he still punished himself with a cup, which is the rule.
If the old man has not appeared, it is nothing, but this time because of Li Langzhong's appearance, it is a little sorry for Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong didn't care too much about this, he originally wanted to stop the old man, but Li Langzhong signaled him to accept it on the side, so he didn't continue, but let the old man continue.
A group of people are talking and laughing and eating, as if they are a family.
