Chapter 6, Blooming Lycium
Following this journey, Shen Xunyi quickly left the town and ran towards a large bush not far from the west of the town.
Shen Xunyi gasped and stood cross-waisted in front of a large area of sandy ground in front of the green and lovely bushes that were still green and lovely in autumn.
That's right, she really wants to come to find something useful, she was born in a family of immortal cultivators, and she can't cultivate, but she doesn't read less and doesn't read in vain, and she can identify many medicinal herbs and fruits that are useful for immortal cultivators, since they are useful for immortal cultivators, then they will naturally not be useless to ordinary people.
The day of selection is getting closer and closer, even if the road to immortal cultivation is long, many families in the town are desperate to hope that their children can step up to that level. If the things she found could make the Changsam Daoist admit that they were beneficial to immortal cultivation, she might be able to sell them for a good price.
Since ancient times, bushes love to bear fruit, this is purely hearsay, but Shen Xunyi plans to try it first.
But... The so-called medicinal herbs that help cultivate immortals really don't seem to be so easy to find... emmmm, Shen Xunyi picked up a dead branch on the side, and after walking a long, long way with the bushes, she covered the sweat on her forehead, the branches of the bushes were small but hard, and the autumn clothes were not thick, and the back of her hands and legs and stomach had already scratched many small red marks, Shen Xunyi stopped, looked at the sky speechlessly and thought: Ah, when she finds it, she must increase the price when she sells it!
Then she continued to dig and search, I don't know why, Shen Xunyi felt that the bushes were getting deeper and deeper, and the little girl licked her lips and cheered herself up.
The autumn sun rose and was still hot, and in the next "dazzling" moment, Shen Xunyi seemed to see a small bunch of red fruits.
Shen Xunyi wiped away the sweat that dazzled his eyes again, and ran over in a few steps, and the small bunches of fruits growing on the thorny leaves clearly came into view, the fruits were said to be bunches by bunches, but in fact they were subdivided into small clusters, each cluster of five grains, and the lines on each grain were five petals, extending to the surroundings like blooming flowers, and the fruits were crystal clear and pure red.
Shen Xunyi's eyes lit up, although she just came to try it, but it was really unexpected to find Canghuaguo.
For immortal cultivators, although the Canghua fruit is only a spiritual fruit that can replenish a little spiritual power, for ordinary people, it can effectively strengthen the muscles and bones. To put it bluntly, the skin is rougher and the flesh is thicker, and if you have regularly taken a large amount of Canghua fruit before entering the Dao, then if it is used as a physical cultivation after entering the Dao, it will not only hurt more to beat people, but also carry more beatings, and the cultivation speed is much faster than others.
Shen Xunyi took off the cloth bag hanging on his body, rolled up his sleeves, took out the small blade wrapped in coarse cloth inside, used the dead branch to remove the thorny leaves, and carefully used the blade to cut the fruit along the pedicle.
"Plop" a little, accidentally punctured a small cluster of Canghua fruit, splashed Shen Xunyi's hand, so she directly picked off the poked cluster, wiped it with her cuff and threw it in her mouth to eat, this is the first time she has eaten the spirit fruit, the taste is sweet, although the fruit is very small, but the juice is abundant.
...... What if she didn't want to sell it, she felt that she could solve all of them.
Shen Xunyi searched for a while, and found more Canghua fruits, and even found other small fruits, and she didn't go back at noon, Granny Yue should think that she went to class.
She leaned on her waist and found a place to sit down, rubbed the wild fruits and ate several of them, and couldn't help but eat several clusters of Canghua fruits, comforting herself while eating, this is good for immortal cultivators, she can be regarded as an immortal cultivator of the second layer of qi refining, and it is also good for eating.
After eating, I rested with my chin for a while, but I didn't notice that the butterfly mark on my wrist emitted an extremely subtle light, but it only weakened for a moment.
By the afternoon, Shen Xunyi had searched nearly half of the bushes, and after thinking about it or coming back next time, she packed her things and went back. On the way back, I met the stupid big brother in the town again, so I really saw the scene where the other party stroked the plant and talked to him.
Shen Xunyi: ...... Well, this big brother seems to be a little "silly" and a little cute.
After saying hello and the other party did not respond, still immersed in the beautiful communication with the plants, Shen Xunyi was silent, remembering the food sent by Brother Lu this morning, she still didn't go directly, and went to squat on the field. Then he took out several clusters of acacia and prepared to hand them to the other party.
Lu Yi found that his plants had grown taller again, and he was very happy and couldn't help himself. He had actually heard someone call him just now, but he didn't really want to respond, they always looked down on him for talking to plants, and thought that plants were inanimate. But he didn't think so, and they said that he was a fool to do this, so... He didn't care anyway.
At this time, a hand also stroked the leaves of the plants under his hand, and Lu Yi heard a soft voice say, "What is my brother talking to it?" Shen Xunyi felt that her face was indeed not bad, because even if she was actually older than others, she didn't blush when she called her brother, what? I couldn't see my blush, no! Blushing is not by looking, but by feeling, and if I don't feel hot, I don't blush.
Lu Yi pinched the big hand of the plant leaf and paused, as if he felt that he had heard it wrong, how could someone ask him such a thing? He was silent and did not look up.
Shen Xunyi: ...... How could this be so different from him with his big white teeth this morning...... Are men so fickle? Shen Xunyi used her mother's fetal thinking ability for more than 20 years to wrinkle her eyebrows and think about it.
So he said a lot of things like that, and finally squatted down in front of the plant together. As soon as Lu Yi looked up, he saw a little girl who looked thin but had bright eyes looking at his plants. He knew the man.
The sun was slanting in the west, Shen Xunyi looked at the plant under his palm that had been communicated, and then looked at the other plants on the field, and tried to distinguish the difference between the two with his eyes.
"Is it Sister Ayi?", Lu Yi saw that she was more serious than herself, and she couldn't sit still, and finally couldn't help but speak.
The young man's voice is still a young man after all, not like his skin that has been tanned by the sun all year round, nor like the muscles that grow between his arms under the backlog of gravity, which is a little soft in his youth. Shen Xunyi always thought that this big brother Lu should have a loud voice, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
She blinked, squinted and turned to him and smiled, "It's me, Brother Lu." ”
Seeing that she didn't speak again, Lu Yi stared at his little plant again, and continued to ask, "What are you looking at?"
When Shen Xunyi heard this, she showed a softer smile, and asked instead of answering, "What is Brother Nalu looking at?"
"I...", Lu Yi scratched his head, feeling a little entangled, "I think it seems to have grown up again, and I want to talk to it." He didn't hold back and looked at Shen Xunyi after speaking.
But Shen Xunyi didn't show the same expression as the others, but nodded solemnly.
"Don't you think it's strange?" he asked.
"What's weird?"
"They all say it's foolish to talk to plants. Lu Yi said.
Shen Xunyi stretched out a finger and shook it, pointed to the same type of plants around him, and asked, "Did Brother Lu only talk to it?"
Lu Yi nodded, his face was a little red, it wasn't that he was eccentric, but his speech also depended on his mood.
Shen Xunyi held her chin, and her fox eyes narrowed into an arc with a smile. Sure enough, this plant should be different from the others.
With Lu Yi's consent, Shen Xunyi touched the plant seriously, and was even more convinced in his heart, although it was not any different, it was indeed different.
