Chapter 3: Dettol Grass

Before the morning sun rose, a thin figure, carrying a small medicine on his back, stepped on the dew-covered grass and left the village. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Through the not-so-bright moonlight, it can be seen that this child is Li Feng, and yesterday he heard Aunt Wang say that Uncle Wang will go to the town tomorrow, so he needs to take advantage of this limited time to dig up more herbs, sell them for more money, and then treat his grandfather.

He is not stupid but also very smart, grandpa will never tell him about his physical condition, but he can see that grandpa's illness can no longer be delayed. So this time, no matter what, I have to buy a pair of cough medicine for my grandfather.

He knows medicine, and he has also read some simple medical books, which were taught to him by his grandfather before, but unfortunately, whether it is himself or his grandfather, both of them are only half-baked doctors, and it is okay to treat a cold and fever, but there is no way to start a slightly bigger disease.

With a small hoe in his hand, he was digging for a cheap herb on the ground.

"The fifth plant" Li Feng sighed and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The sun was already in the middle of the day, but at this time he had only dug up five herbs.

This herb is not worth much in the town, and this morning's hard work may only be exchanged for two copper plates. He looked up at the half-sized mountain in front of him. He hadn't been there, but he had heard from the people in the village that there were many precious medicinal herbs there.

But for some reason, on the first day he went up the mountain to collect medicine, his grandfather told him not to set foot on that mountain, he asked his grandfather why, but he didn't answer, but there was fear in his eyes!

Through the mouth of the uncle who hunted in the village, he learned that the name of this mountain is called Remnant Mountain, which was given by the people in the village a few years ago, Li Feng did not know the cause of this name, and through his observation, he found that everyone in the village seemed to have a deep taboo about this mountain, and under normal circumstances, ordinary people did not want to mention it.

For so many years, he has been listening to his grandfather very much, and he has never stepped into this remnant mountain. But this time, for the sake of his grandfather's illness, he still wanted to try his luck!

The mountain road of the remnant mountain is not easy to walk, there are half-human-high boulders everywhere, Li Feng has been collecting medicine in the mountains all the year round, but walking on this mountain road, there is still some powerlessness, after all, he is too young!

Climbing onto a boulder, Li Feng took a heavy breath before looking around, hoping to find one or two precious herbs.

At this moment, suddenly, the tender green grass under a boulder directly attracted his attention. The grass is not tall, and if you don't look closely, you will only think that it is ordinary grass, because they look too similar.

Li Feng turned over the worn-out medical book at home countless times, just because he was afraid that one day he would encounter precious herbs on the mountain and he would not recognize them.

He hurried towards the boulder, and he didn't even pause for the needle grass under his feet to stick to his leg.

Needle grass, as its name suggests, grows on the ground like a vine as a whole, the leaves are large, and the stems are covered with thin and hard barbs, non-toxic, but if it is pierced on the body, there will definitely be a blood mark!

There are a lot of this kind of grass in this big mountain, and Li Fengcai always walks with this kind of grass when he is meditated, not because he is afraid of being injured, but because he is afraid that his clothes that have countless patches will be damaged.

He had always longed for a new dress of his own, but since his grandfather was sick, this wish had long been forgotten by him. You can imagine how much you cherish this dress.

The clothes were marked with white marks by needles and grass, and Li Feng had already run to the side of the grass, gently brushing away the stones around the grass, and then looked at it carefully.

A blade of grass in the shape of a water droplet, with a trace of mist in the air above it, condensed but not dispersed. It's exactly what the book says, it's a dettau.

Dettol grass belongs to the spirit grass level, the body has six leaves, grows one leaf every ten years, when it grows to six leaves, it is called the best Dew grass,

The efficacy of this herb is not described in the book, but its value is briefly described. "Ten golds" This is the value of this Dettol grass.

The Dettle Dew Grass in front of him has only three leaves on its body, which is obviously not the best as mentioned in the book, but even if it belongs to the first level of Spirit Grass, then it should be able to be sold for one gold!

Even with this gold, he believes that his grandfather's illness will be cured. Because Uncle Wang bought the ox and the car, it only cost five taels of silver in total!

Li Feng secretly recalled what he said in the book, and his eyes when he looked at the drop of dew grass also showed excitement.

"Silk... Just as Li Feng was still observing this drop of dew grass, suddenly a voice came from not far away, followed by the sound of animals crawling.

Hearing this voice, Li Feng suddenly remembered what was recorded in the book. Spirit grass is not easy to grow, and normally, there will always be some guardian beasts near each spirit grass.

"I didn't see this guardian beast just now, isn't this Dripping Dew Grass?" Li Feng muttered softly, but he didn't give him a chance to think about it at this time, picked up the hoe in his hand and looked in the direction where the sound came from. I saw that there was a black body about the thickness of a finger, with a triangular head, and the black tongue in its mouth kept spitting out, and the sound came out of its mouth, and the little snake slowly crawled in the direction of Li Feng. It's as if they hadn't found him.

At this moment, Li Feng didn't dare to make any more sounds, he had never seen such a strange snake, but the book said that the spirit grass must be guarded by a spiritual object, so I believe that this snake should not be a simple thing.

Gently moving his footsteps, bending down, he retreated behind the boulder, until he hid his body all on the side of the boulder, and he breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he realized that the hoe he was holding in his hand had already been soaked with sweat from his palm.

The little snake didn't seem to notice Li Feng's existence, and slowly crawled towards the drip grass with a slightly bulging belly. Crawling to the side of the grass, he raised his triangular black head and looked around. Seeing that there is no situation, he coils the whole grass with his small body and allows it to exist in the center of his body.

Li Feng didn't dare to breathe, and looked at the dew grass through the crack in the stone, and when he saw the little black snake coiling up the grass and protecting it under his body, he once again confirmed that this grass was indeed the drip grass mentioned in the book, and this little snake must be the little spirit beast that guards this grass.

The little snake coiled the grass in the center of its body, but at this moment, as if it noticed that it was not the same as before, the whole snake head immediately became alert and looked around again

Seeing its expression, Li Feng didn't know where he could be, it was precisely because he had just removed all the stones on the side of the Dripping Grass. Slowed his breathing a little more. His eyes pierced through the cracks in the stone but never left.

The little black snake looked around for a long time, but did not see any change, put his head on a stone again, and his tongue stretched out of his mouth from time to time, gently touching the leaves of the dew grass.

Li Feng could clearly see through the cracks in the stone that whenever this tongue touched the leaf, the mist fluttering above it would be a little smaller.

"This should be the reason why the little snake guards the dew grass!" Li Feng secretly guessed in his heart.

The tongue kept running over the leaves of the druff grass, and the fog above was getting less and less. Until he was about to disappear, Li Feng finally couldn't help it.

The book does not say what will happen to the grass after the fog disappears, he is afraid, afraid that if the fog really disappears, then the grass will lose its due value.

He didn't dare to gamble with his grandfather's life. Because he knew he couldn't afford to lose. Grandpa can't afford to lose, but he only has one chance.

The hoe was clenched tightly in his hand, even though it was already soaked with sweat. Gently picked up a small stone and threw it gently in the direction opposite him.

A crisp sound sounded on the other side of the snake, and the little black snake that had just climbed down and didn't move immediately raised its head and looked in the direction of the stone. Vigilantly watching in the direction of the sound.

At this time, it was the right time, Li Feng thought of this, and directly drilled out from the back of the boulder, and the not long hoe in his hand smashed directly towards the snake's head.

The little black snake didn't pay attention to Li Feng's direction, and when Li Feng suddenly appeared from the side of the boulder, it didn't react for a while. When it looked at Li Feng, it was obviously a beat slower.

There was a clicking sound, and the hoe blade was smashed in half. Hit the stone beneath it. The head of the snake rolled straight off its body.

Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. A smile appeared on his face.

I didn't dare to wait any longer, so I directly stretched out my hand to the drop of dew grass. Wanted to pull it out. But at this moment, the head of the snake, which had obviously been cut off, jumped up by itself and bit Li Feng's wrist directly in one bite.
