Chapter 22 Going up the mountain to collect medicine

The housekeeper's building is taken care of by Mo Lao, so if you want to enter, you have to get Mo Lao's permission, and the drugs or accessories involved are in and out of authority.

The young man turned and knocked lightly on the door, and the door slammed open, and a fragrant smell came to his face, and he looked into the sight, and there were all kinds of medicines and ornaments inside.

"Mu Fan, let's go in, Senior Mo is inside"

In the hall on the first floor, on the surrounding corner walls, there are several wooden frames, on which some medicines are placed, faintly, exuding a faint aroma, smelling a somewhat familiar smell, Mu Fan smiled: "There is spiritual grass here."

"It's just a garbage herb," Zi Luo said with a hint of sarcasm rising at the corner of his mouth.

"Sister Ziluo, I don't know what Senior Mo called us to do, if it's a good thing, say quietly, otherwise Senior Mo will hear it, and it will be in the soup."

"What little girl, say such a big thing here," a hoarse voice came from upstairs.

Mu Fan's face was worried for a moment, for fear of offending Mo Lao, so he hurriedly said: "Senior Mo, she is my companion and friend, she has always been like this, adults don't remember villains"

"Hmph, what are you afraid of this old man?"

"Haha, Mu Shao, you guys wait a minute"

"Hehe, it's okay," Mu Fan said in a polite and polite tone.

With a slight sweep of his gaze, he saw that there were many herbs missing from the other frame, and after looking at the herbs for about ten minutes, Mo Lao walked down the steps from the stairs step by step.

Mo Lao smiled faintly and said, "I was busy just now, so I kept you waiting."

"Senior Mo, you're polite" Mu Fan replied respectfully, and said, "Say, what's the matter with calling me over?"

Mo Lao sighed and said, "The herbs here need to be supplied to the disciples for cultivation every day, and now there are a lot of vacancies for herbs, and the supply is in short supply."

Mu Fan's eyes drooped slightly, and he said probingly: "Let me go and collect medicine?"

Squinted slightly, stroked his white beard, nodded slowly, seeing Mo Lao's signal, Mu Fan was stunned, his face was sad, and he smiled bitterly: "Senior Mo, I'm not an expert, you can find someone else."

"I asked, but they don't want to do this work, they feel that collecting medicine is boring and wastes cultivation time," Mo Lao said helplessly.

"There are so many people, you can ask them one by one, I don't believe that no one is willing"

"Hehe, it's impossible to put so much effort into collecting medicine, and let everyone know that I, an old man, is in dire need of people and can't find anyone to collect medicine, isn't that a joke?" Mo Lao glanced at Mu Fan and said.

Mu Fan thought for a while and said, "That's right, but I'm a layman, is it suitable?"

"I've thought about this, so ah, arrange for one to come with you" Mo Lao glanced at the young man out of the corner of his eye.

"Who is it?"

"Hehe, he's right next to you," Mo Lao smiled.

Mu Fan tilted his head slightly to look at the young man, and said in confusion: "It's you?"

The young man said, "Hehe, yes, it's me, this time we will go to collect medicine together."

Mu Fan's mind was rounding around, and he smiled and said, "Senior Mo, it's okay to go, but you also have to have a reward, right?"

Mo Lao couldn't cry or laugh, and laughed sadly: "Haha, you kid also knows how to ask for it."

"If you don't want to, then you can find someone else," Mu Fan said with an indifferent look.

Mo Lao was helpless, nodded and said, "What do you want?"

Mu Fan said in an unambiguous tone: "I haven't thought about it yet, and besides, my friend will also accompany you, if you don't agree, forget it, don't force it."

"Whatever you want"

"That's good, I don't have anything left, when will I leave" Mu Fan said.

Mo Lao waved his hand and said: "Today, the sooner you start, the better."

A green jungle is endless, the soil on the ground is a little damp, Mu Fan is carrying a cage and holding a small knife in his hand, the young man is also carrying a cage, and Ziluo is carrying nothing, empty-handed, looking at her like this, she is simply here to play.

On the surrounding grass, all kinds of wild grasses and wild flowers were clustered, and seeing this scene, Mu Fan stood in place in a daze, his expression a little confused.

Zi Luo sat on the moss stone, holding many weeds in his hands, chewing one in his mouth, and when he chewed until it was tasteless, he blew his breath, and the weeds sprayed out, and continued to pick up another one, and his mouth kept squirming.

"Senior brother, there are so many, I don't know how to distinguish those are medicinal herbs."

He is a layman, he has never touched medicinal herbs, he is simply ignorant, and it seems to him a bit ridiculous to ask a layman to collect medicine.

"Hehe, follow me, you can just watch it"

The young man crouched down, shook off the weeds with both hands, and the knife landed under the root of a plant and cut it gently.

"This is a plant called Xiling Grass, which is a medicinal herb that has the effect of stopping bleeding," he handed to Mu Fandao.

Mu Fan took a serious look at the figure, threw his hand back slightly, and put the grass into the cage.

The young man cut another herb and said, "This plant is called green oak grass, and it has a refreshing effect."

The young man threw it gently, Mu Fan took it, glanced at the green oak grass, and threw it into the cage.

After moving seven or eight steps, he came to a soft and half-meter-high wildflower, on which five bouquets of flowers and ten buds bloomed, bent down, cut them one by one at a slow speed, cut off the five bouquets of flowers, took the knife, and said: "This is a purple lotus, which can dissolve the toxins in the body."

"Senior brother, cut off the whole plant."

"Hmph, you are picking flowers and removing the roots, salivating too much, keep it like this, its life is still there, it can reproduce again, and after cutting the buds, there will be huge damage to its growth, and it may wither and be abandoned" Ziluo sneered.

"Hehe, Sister Ziluo, I just think it's too wasteful"

Mu Fan felt the reason for his ignorance, talked nonsense, and laughed embarrassedly.

"If you don't understand, don't scream, it's in the juvenile stage, the effect of flowers is the best, and when flowers are born again, they are also at this stage," Zi Luo said shallowly.

Hearing this, the young man looked at Ziluo with wide eyes, surprised, he didn't expect the ordinary girl in front of him to understand so deeply, and admired: "Little junior sister, you really have extraordinary knowledge"

"Cut, it's just goosebumps" Zi Luo closed his mouth, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, and he lifted a contemptuous face.

"Hey, when I saw it today, it turns out that collecting medicine is also a science," Mu Fan sighed.

The young man said: "That's a must, I have been collecting medicine for more than a year, and I have learned a little bit of what is on the surface."

Mu Fan nodded in agreement, in the vast world, there are countless kinds of medicinal materials, and if you want to become an excellent herb, you have to take a long time to decipher.

After a long time, he slightly identified a little bit of herbs, and he took the initiative to pick the medicine himself.

Some of the herbs did not know how to identify at his feet, but they were skimmed away, so that after several hours of picking, there were very few herbs in the cage, and the cage was filled with by the young man.

Mu Fan's efficiency is very slow, that's normal, after all, it's the first time to collect medicine, and I've never been in contact, so where can the efficiency be fast?

Seeing the young man collecting medicine so lightly, and then seeing that he was tired like a dog, he was impatient, and shook off the cage fiercely, and the herb fell on the grass, and scolded roughly: "This dead old man, can I do this job?"

"Mu Fan, take your time, the novice is like this at the beginning, my first time is just like you, don't rush for quick success" The young man smiled and comforted, came to Mu Fan with the cage, and said: "You are also very good, I believe in you, you will surpass me"

Hearing such encouragement, the first time he was recognized was the young man in front of him, and his heart warmed his heart, and he said to the young man: "Thank you, senior brother"

Mu Fan mustered up his energy, step by step to find the herbs that could be recognized, and in the process of hard work, whenever he encountered a plant that looked a little special, it aroused his curiosity, looked at it, and then asked the young people for advice.

While collecting herbs, he listened to the young man explain the knowledge of medicinal herbs, and after a long time, although he did not pick any medicinal herbs, he gradually became interested in the aspects of medicinal herbs.
