Chapter 31 Sour Jujubes
Time passed, and Ye Chen had been in the stone village for three months. In the past three months, he has followed the teenagers of Shicun to practice against the rising sun during the day, and he has free time to learn the words of this world and the necessary knowledge of this world with the old man Shi Yunfeng.
Some rare herbs in the Great Wilderness. The old man said he could save his life. However, it is also common in some wild mountain ranges, and it is different and rare in other places, and it is treasured by people, and those herbs will only grow in the wilderness.
And most importantly, the beasts, birds of prey and the poisonous bugs. These are important points and cannot be ambiguous. Otherwise, one will lose his life if he is not careful. The old man also said that those that are very precious, rare, and have a certain age can be called elixirs. This kind of thing is an existence that can be encountered but not sought in the great wilderness. There is usually a fierce beast as a guardian beast beside it. Protects the elixir from being destroyed and allows it to grow normally.
They will wait until the elixir is most ripe to devour it. The old man said that these elixirs born in heaven and earth, such as immortal stones, can often be combined with the Dao. To be able to get enough benefits in front of heaven and earth, to be able to absorb the aura between heaven and earth. These are all things that ordinary cultivators can hardly reach. Therefore, cultivators can swallow elixirs to speed up their cultivation.
Of course, it can also be eaten directly, but the best way is to combine it with other elixirs to refine the elixir, which has the best effect and can bring the medicinal power of the elixir to perfection. If it is refined properly, the medicinal power can even increase exponentially.
Of course, there is no such person in Shicun, and I heard the old man say that it exists in the outside world. The old man was not an alchemist, he was just lucky enough to get a few ancient recipes. and the medical books left by Ishimura's predecessors in the past.
The medicinal herbs in Shiyunfeng's courtyard are all immature seedlings, which were accidentally discovered by the hunting team in the Great Wilderness Mountain Range, and are carefully transplanted into small medicinal fields.
Ye Chen lives very well in Shicun, it is like a big family, everyone cares about each other and thinks about the village together. Here, Ye Chen seemed to feel the warmth of home again.
Now that he has completely integrated into the stone village, women, children, old and young, Ye Chen can call him by name. The elders treated him as if he were their own child. The teenagers of his age did not exclude him because he was a person with a foreign surname. In the past three months, Ye Chen has lived very comfortably in Shicun.
The remnant sun is like blood, on the horizon. The men who had gone out to hunt beasts and ferocious birds in the wild mountains returned.
Huge beast corpses strewn across the village, just like the last time. The village is getting busy again. Men, women, and children looked happy, and this hunt was no worse than the last. There are a lot of strong species in it.
An old man is dismantling a ferocious beast, not very large. It is one meter long and one meter five meters high. The head of the leopard was black, like steel, and there was a tail with bone spurs on its back, shining with a chill. The most important thing is that there is an amethyst-like thing on the top of the head. Purple light flashed in the dark.
The old man sighed, "This Desolate Crystal Shadow Beast is the one in the mountains, and it can be hunted this time! ”
When Shi Feilong, the leader heard the old man's words, he smiled and groaned, "Isn't it? The amethyst hanging on the skull isn't it something that the old patriarch has been thinking about?"
"Hey, you kid. The old man who was dismembering the beast said.
"This Desolate Crystal Shadow Beast is extremely difficult to deal with, and in the end, I took action to hunt it back to the village, if it was an adult beast, I would not dare to think of it. I heard that once this fierce beast grows up, the transparent amethyst on its head will automatically fall off and turn into an amethyst treasure mirror. That power is amazing, and it can open mountains and rubble. Shi Feilong was proud, and waved his big hand to explain to the teenagers next to him.
Teenagers and girls all surround this uncle. With a look of worship, I listened to him talk about the horrors of all kinds of strange beasts, and how to defeat them, and successfully hunt them and bring them back to Shicun. Speaking of excitement, these children will suddenly burst into cheers, as if they are in the scene and are fighting for Ishimura.
"In the future, I must also hunt an adult Desolate Crystal Shadow Beast and bring it back to Stone Village. That mirror will be given to you as a trophy, okay?" a young man with black hair and a necklace of bone teeth around his neck scratched his head and said to the girl next to him.
The girl looked like she was about sixteen or seventeen years old, her hair was braided into a jet-black ponytail and hung down on her chest, and the bare skin under the animal skin was wheat-colored, with great strength and beauty. Hearing the young man's words, his face instantly pale. He lowered his head, lightly hammered the young man's chest, and said softly: "I hate it, you are necrotic!"
Then he turned around and trotted all the way into the village, and when the boy saw the girl's appearance, he wanted to turn around and chase after her.
But at this time, a sturdy young man, like a wild bull, suddenly appeared behind the beast-toothed young man and grabbed him.
The sturdy young man said with a dark face: "Shi Song, you kid, you dare to hook up with my sister, looking for a beating?!"
"Yo, isn't this my eldest brother? I thought it was someone, it scared me!" Although he was caught by the sturdy boy, the Ishimura boy named Shi Song was not worried, but teased.
As soon as he tried his best, he broke free from the control of the sturdy young man, and continued to provoke while running towards the village: "Shi Stunned, your sister is married, you come to beat me, come, come!" Not only that, but he also patted his ass.
This sturdy young man's name is not called Shi Stunned but Shi Meng, he is a little stunned, so he was given such a nickname by the teenagers.
"You kid wait, don't let me catch you. You see, I won't feed you sour dates!" put down the cruel words and followed Shi Song into the village.
These are all seen by the villagers, who cares about the children's petty fights? I don't have so much energy, so I just let them go. Thinking of sour dates, Ye Chen shuddered. The mouth unconsciously drooled.
Sour jujube is a common wild fruit in the great wilderness, and it is found near Shicun. It is a small red fruit that is very easy to pick.
Ye Chen was still drooling when he thought about it, not because of how delicious this thing was, but because this thing was extremely sour and unacceptable.
He was tricked into eating one. I vomited it on the spot, and I almost really vomited the sour water in my stomach. But it's just a good-natured joke, and everyone in Ishimura eats this little fruit. According to the saying in Ishimura, not eating is not a Shicun person.
The old man packed the blood of the giant beast in a few clay pots and brought it to Shi Yunfeng's courtyard.
The old people sat in the courtyard and discussed something.
"Yun Feng, our precious blood should be enough for a child to make a medicinal bath, right?"
"That's enough, plus the blood from the last time is still there, this time it's very sufficient, maybe there will be some left, and I have also found all the auxiliary herbs on the ancient recipe. ”
"Well, in that case. After the bonfire, bring the children to the center of the stone village, and we will have a medicinal bath. ”
Eventually, the elders settled down to give a medicinal bath to the children in the village.
