Chapter 61: The whereabouts of the mother of astragalus
At midnight, a pig-killing shout came from the depths of Yunqiao Road: "If you say no, you don't! Yunqiao Daomen is not a pill wholesale market!"
Bai Mu saw that Zhang Benwei in front of him had already reached out to touch the ancestor picture, and his scalp was numb in an instant: "If you don't give it, why do you use a knife and a gun?"
Zhang Benwei's muscles burst out: "Then you should put down the little radish!"
Bai Mu smiled and hugged the little radish with a cute face from the top of the high bookcase, and the little radish shouted excitedly: "Come again, come again!"
Knowing that the little radish is a soul body, it can land steadily if it falls from a high place, but Zhang Benwei is still very unhappy: Why can Bai Mu lift it high and touch his head himself? !
Looking at Bai Mu with a sad face, Zhang Benwei couldn't help but be curious: "Who has a heart attack that makes you so anxious? Could it be your mother?"
Bai Mu slapped him without hesitation: "Who are you cursing!?"
Zhang Benwei rubbed the back of his head, which was almost bald by Bai Mu, and didn't know why: "In short, the unilateral treatment for mortal heart disease doesn't say that I am here, even my senior brother can't take it out." ”
"Who is cultivating immortals for the sake of going further? Who would be idle and idle to study mortal diseases! let alone invent a unilateral ...... for an uncommon disease?"
Bai Mu's eyes gradually darkened, he thought of this ending, but he was still hit hard.
Zhang Benwei saw Bai Mu's soulless appearance for the first time, and after thinking about it hard, he stroked his palm and smiled: "Master once said that the biggest dream of a monk in his life is to be a doctor who hangs pots to help the world. If you can find him, it's a small thing to cure a heart attack or something. ”
Bai Mu didn't expect that there really would be such a monk who "didn't do his job", he asked in surprise: "What's your name?"
Zhang Benwei smiled: "I don't know where the person is, the person is nicknamed 'Holy Hand Chasing Soul', it is said that as long as it is not completely cool, even if the soul is already on the road, he can chase it back." ”
"It's also the practice of taking the sword to the edge, and I always feel that people won't be short of money......" Zhang Benwei looked at the down-and-out Taoist temple behind him, and couldn't help but sigh.
Bai Mu was silent: Such a holy hand in medicine will be a guest wherever he goes, how can he invite a powerless and powerless cultivator?
"I advise you not to be too anxious for now, since you have already protected your heart with spiritual power, Xia Tao should not be dying for a while. The most important thing is that you improve your strength as quickly as possible. A shallow voice sounded in Bai Mu's heart.
He had to admit that he was indeed in a bit too anxious. The top priority at the moment is to find a twenty-year-old "Astragalus Mother", and then refine the mysterious ghost cultivator hidden in Jiangcheng "when it dies", maybe all difficulties will be solved.
Zhang Benwei, who had learned a lot of basic knowledge from Zhang Tianshi, told Bai Mu that "Astragalus Mother" is a very rare medicinal material, also known as "goblin", which is a mutated variety of Astragalus membranaceus, an ordinary medicinal material.
"Jiangcheng definitely doesn't have this kind of medicinal material, and if you go north to Qinling, it is possible to find it. ”
Time is precious, after Bai Mu said goodbye to Zhang Benwei, he immediately set off, and got on the train to Qinling in the early morning of the same day.
......
The Qinling Mountains stretch for more than 1,600 kilometers, with more than 40 large and small peaks, and countless places of interest and historic sites. There are many famous mountains that have been clearly explored by tourists, but there are also many peaks that are rarely of interest because of the complex terrain and steep mountains.
Yushan is one of these mountains that no one cares about, there are only a few small villages at the foot of the mountain, and the old people who are unwilling to give up their farming life still stay in the village to guard their own one-third of an acre.
Old Chen Tou was still at the head of the village to lay out the old medicine he had dug up, and then leaned against the banyan tree and dozed off, it was almost noon, and his stomach began to rumble.
As soon as the light in front of him dimmed, Lao Chen sat up with a spirit, and saw a tall and thin white young man looking at the medicine he had picked seriously, grinning, revealing a few remaining old yellow teeth.
"Young man, where are your adults?"
This young man who was serious about the medicine was naturally Bai Mu who came to look for the "Astragalus Mother", he glanced at the old medicine on the ground, and was a little disappointed: there was nothing he was looking for. However, there are many astragalus roots that are in the old age, and it seems that Yushan is prolific with astragalus.
"Uncle, I'm here alone. Have you ever seen such a thing as an 'astragalus mother', or can you call it a 'goblin'?"
When Lao Chen heard that this young man was coming alone, he was a little disappointed: only some rich big bosses would buy some old medicines at a high price for health preservation, and the young man in front of him was young and strong, and he was afraid that he would not spend money to buy his own medicinal materials.
But when he heard the words "Astragalus Mother", he was agitated again: "Young man, do you still know such a thing as Astragalus Mother?"
Bai Mu's eyes lit up instantly, the fat man was reliable this time, and the path he pointed out to him was quite accurate, and he found the news of this medicinal herb in less than a day.
"Have you seen it? I'm willing to buy a whole piece of Astragalus Mother, the price is negotiable. ”
The cash that Bai Mu had gotten from drug dealers and wolf demons before had almost been squandered. But the wealthy Miss Zhu gave a credit card with a limit of 100,000 yuan in her name before leaving, and Bai Mu had not used the money yet.
Old Chen Tou shook his head slowly: "That's a treasure medicine! Digging such a treasure medicine is going to be punished by God, and those who are not hard enough are afraid that they will have their lives to take money and not spend their lives!"
"There used to be an old yellow man in the village, but he was bold enough to dig out a piece, and the year was at least thirty or forty years old! But not long ago, he disappeared in the mountains, and the people of the public family went into the mountains to search for a long time, and only found a hoe for digging medicine, not even a bone......
Old Chen Tou seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden, and those who did what they did, cut off the life of those medicinal herbs that had grown for decades, and they didn't dare to believe this kind of retribution.
Bai Mu didn't expect this to be the case, but he still asked, "What about the astragalus mother that was dug up?"
Old Chen Tou glanced at Bai Mu in surprise, ordinary people are afraid that they can't avoid this kind of bad thing, how can this young man look like he is not afraid of heaven and earth? He still replied: "Old Huang Tou's family felt bad luck, and buried that treasure medicine back in the depths of the mountain, and then the whole family moved to the city. ”
Bai Mu felt both sorry and fortunate in his heart: no matter what, there must be such a rare medicinal material in the Jade Mountain in front of him. He pondered for a moment and said to the old man in front of him, "I really need this herb. Seeing that you are a veteran who often goes into the mountains, can you please be a guide and take me into the mountains to try my luck?"
Old Chen's beard knocked, I didn't expect this young man to be so persistent!
In recent years, there have been more and more travelers who like to explore unknown mountains, and Lao Chen Tou really hasn't been a guide into the mountains, but he is still a little hesitant to find the ominous "Astragalus Mother".
Bai Mu saw Lao Chen's struggling expression, and thought for a while: "Enter the mountain once, 20,000 yuan." Whether you find it or not, it has nothing to do with you, and you don't have to touch the mother of astragalus. How?"
Old Chen Tou looked at the confident smile on the young man's face, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll take you into the mountain tomorrow, and I will pay half of the money first!"
"Deal!"
