When the first rays of sunlight in the morning passed through the window, Nian Nian woke up from her sleep, she stretched her waist, saw that Zhu Mei was still lying on the bed and fell asleep, smiled lightly, tucked the corners of the quilt for her with a soft face, and tiptoed out.

After a while, she came back with a bowl of steaming porridge and some refreshing side dishes.

"Wake up when you smell the fragrance, sister, you can eat and sleep now, be careful that you will gain weight!" Nian Nian smiled and put the dishes and bowls on the table, and came over to help Zhu Mei.

Zhu Mei glanced at her, rubbed her head, and smiled dotingly.

"Sister, I inquired just now, there is a barren mountain on the outskirts of this city, it is said that there is a forest with a large area in it, and it is very easy to get lost there, so few people visit, let's go there and look for it, and see if we can find any better medicinal materials." ”

So the two of them set off after a simple freshening up. The two were still wearing their previous dresses. Although yesterday was a little embarrassing, but both of them knew immortal arts, and it was still easy to use a low-level cleaning technique to clean their bodies, but since they came to the imperial capital and saw the silk and satin on the street, they thought privately, and after selling the medicinal materials for silver, they went to make a few beautiful clothes with their sister.

The two hired a carriage and went all the way to the barren mountains on the outskirts of the city, and when they got out of the carriage, they paid the coachman enough money, and asked the coachman to come back to pick them up in three hours, and then helped each other into the mountains.

The mountain is not too high, but it covers a vast area. Summer is coming to an end, and cicadas are rarely heard in the woods, and the leaves in the treetops are quietly turning yellow. Fortunately, the rainy season has passed at this time, and although the climate in the forest is wetter than the outside, the soil is not sticky, so it doesn't take much effort to go up the mountain with Zhumei every year.

"Are you sure there will be any precious medicinal herbs here?" asked Zhu Mei with a tilt of her head.

Nian Nian closed his eyes and thought about it, his delicate little nose wrinkled slightly, and he sniffed around the pearl charm seriously, then jumped up and clapped his hands and said:

"Of course there is, the most precious medicinal herbs are here, it's my sister you!"

Zhu Mei smiled helplessly, and hurriedly shouted when she saw her running away: "Be careful, don't run around!"

Not far from them, a lush bush moved imperceptibly, and the person hidden behind them was silent, two dark emotions crossed by a pair of originally calm pupils, one soft and the other bitter.

The two of them pushed aside the dense grass and looked around with their waists bent over the years, but they heard Zhu Mei call her.

"Look at this, it's Bing Ai, right? I remember seeing it when I was in Chuanshan, and I heard my senior brother say that it seems to be more expensive than Huo Ai. ”

"I saw it," Nian Nian pouted, what is the rarity of Bing Ai, there are more in Sichuan Mountain, there is a large area in the backyard of Wangchuan, it's boring, I must find a rare baby, so that I can exchange it for a little more silver. Every year I thought about the colorful clothes worn by pedestrians in the market, and my heart flew.

At this time, Wuxian couldn't help but laugh when he followed behind, and he smiled bitterly. Ice mugwort is already a very rare medicinal herb, even in this imperial capital city, there are not necessarily many pharmacies that can get ice mugwort. Chuanshan Lan Valley is the place where the world's spiritual charm gathers, spiritual things are everywhere, so Bing Ai can be seen everywhere, it is not unusual, the current year is obviously used to the days of the gods, everywhere I want to find the kind of rare medicinal herbs and herbs in the world, although the two of them rely on these precious herbs along the way There is no shortage of silver, but those who know know know that they sold the baby for a cabbage price, and the two of them are very happy. Wuxian could only shake his head silently.

In this way, nearly two hours have passed, and every year she has not found a baby that satisfies her. Zhu Mei greeted her: "Year after year, we can no longer go inside, and when we came, the coachman said that the deep fog in the mountains is very easy to get lost, and it will be very dangerous for us to go in if we are not prepared." ”

Nian Nian pouted in disappointment, and just wanted to agree, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and then he turned around and ran into the depths of the woods.

I ran all the way every year, and finally stopped under a few big trees. These trees are a little strange, the trunk can be as thick as a person's hug, and the surface is crawling with green moss, but if you look closely, you will find that the moss is not attached to it in an orderly manner. The dense moss is connected and covered with each other one by one, leaving a series of intricate patterns on the trunk of the tree, like symbols. Nian Nian gently covered the surface of the tree with his jade hand, lowered his eyes slightly, and muttered, "What a strong spiritual power." ”

Zhu Mei stood quietly aside, and did not urge her. Nian Nian suddenly opened his eyes, smiled at Zhu Mei and said, "There must be something good here, let's look for it." After that, he rolled up his sleeves hard. Seeing this, Zhu Mei couldn't help but sneer, this was all learned from Brother Zhang's group of men in the small village where she stayed after leaving the abyss, and every year a girl who looked soft and weak made it, but it was more lively and charming.

The two of them walked back and forth around the trees, and sure enough, they found something at the root and the lower trunk.

"This is?" Zhu Mei stretched out her hand and carefully removed the thing from the root of the tree, "Wood Lingzhi?"

Nian Nian leaned in and sniffed, and said with some doubts: "Is this thing?" She was also a little curious, obviously she had never seen this plant before. The plant called the wood reishi mushroom in the hand of the bead charm resembles a small half-open umbrella. The color is not white or light brown like ordinary reishi, its surface is slightly green, and there are faint strange textures on it.

"I don't know, but I've heard Sister Phantom say that there is a kind of Ganoderma lucidum that grows on trees and can coexist with trees, which is a more magical plant, and she said that there was once a Ganoderma lucidum at the root of the goddess tree. ”

Nian Nian nodded immediately after hearing this, putting aside the other thoughts in his mind, "In that case, let's look for it again and pick more of these lingzhi mushrooms." A plant that can grow on the goddess tree and coexist with the goddess tree must be a treasure of heaven and earth!" After experiencing the healing of the spiritual spring, she listened to Xi Tong and Ah Qin talk about the various things of the goddess tree when her consciousness was chaotic, and then she heard Zhu Mei say that this wood lingzhi could grow on the goddess tree, so she no longer doubted the preciousness of this thing.

Zhu Mei smiled, after they picked five of these wood lingzhi, they calculated that the time should be the time agreed with the coachman, and immediately stopped staying, turned around and walked back.

Nian Nian happily thought in his heart how much silver he could exchange for when he went back to sell them, thinking about it and turning around excitedly, and in the very short time when she turned around, a strange feeling rose from her heart, so that Nian Nian subconsciously looked back at the place of the trees. Looking at this, Nian Nian suddenly felt very strange. For she saw that the green patterns on the trees had faded considerably, revealing their original brown bark.

Zhu Mei had already walked out for a distance, and when she saw that Nian Nian didn't catch up, she stopped in place to wait for her. Seeing the situation every year, I can only keep up, talk and laugh along the way, and don't talk more.

The two of them returned to the city in a carriage, hung a veil in the carriage, and walked into a medicine shop that looked quite imposing. A young man greeted him and said with a smile, "Two girls, are you here to get medicine?"

Nian Nian shook his head, "We're here to sell medicine." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, and swept the two up and down, as if he didn't believe that the two girls could have any medicinal materials in their hands, and at the same time his tone was a little impatient: "Girl, if it is not any precious medicinal materials, our store does not accept retail trading of medicinal materials, you better go to other houses and ask." As he spoke, he waved his hand and was about to send off the guests.

"Wait a minute, you," Nian Nian hurriedly waved his hand, and pinched his waist with his hands that were a little unconvinced: "How do you know that I don't have the precious medicinal materials you said? Don't underestimate people!"

The guy rolled his eyes, "Tell me what you have." He spread his hands casually, looking nonchalant.

Nian Nianxiao's face turned red, when had she been choked like this, and immediately dismissed with a red face: "I, I have Mu Lingzhi!"

The guy looked at Nian Nian with disdain: "This girl must not know much about medical skills, the wood lingzhi has the highest grade among all the lingzhi, and the wood lingzhi itself has a set of grades, the more precious the attached tree is, and the higher the position of the tree, the higher its own value." He said with a smug expression, "And do you know how to preserve the wood reishi? Once the wood reishi leaves the attached tree, it will wither like a flower within an hour, and the medicinal effect will also disappear, and to prolong its freshness, it must be cut or moved along with the branches that provide it with nourishment." Are you sure you still want to tell me that you have a wood lingzhi?"

Nian Nian and Zhu Mei were dumbfounded when they heard this, they didn't expect the preservation method of this wood lingzhi to be so complicated and weird, but they were stunned by what this guy said, and shook their heads together.

The guy chuckled lightly and was about to turn back, but Nian Nian suddenly came back to his senses and shouted urgently: "Don't go, what I said is true, don't believe me to show you!"

The two were arguing, and an old man in a gray robe walked out of the back hall, frowning and asking the young man in a deep voice: "What's the matter, what kind of system is it that you are making a lot of noise in the front hall! If you can't do it, get out, don't spoil business here!"

The young man hurriedly silenced, said the matter with a little grievance, and looked at Nian Nian with a sad look in his eyes.

After he finished speaking, the old man also looked over, and the two of them saw clearly that the old man's eyes were full of essence, and his every move was extremely rigid, and he looked shrewd and stern.

Nian Nian shrunk his neck slightly, but he still stepped forward and handed over a small piece of wood lingzhi in his hand, "Wood Lingzhi, he doesn't believe it." ”

The old man took the Mu Lingzhi suspiciously, and suddenly his pupils shrank, obviously too surprised, his trembling hand gently brushed the surface of the Lingzhi, and the surprise in his eyes was abnormal: "It's really Mu Lingzhi!"

Nian Nian glanced at the guy proudly when he heard this, "How about it, buy it or not?"

The old man obviously had deep experience, and he restrained his emotions at a very fast speed, and his gaze became soft and loving, only to see him politely speak: "The two girls have such treasures, and they are willing to cut their love, how can the old man be lazy." Would you like to go to the back hall and have some tea, and how about we talk about it?"

Nian Nian and Zhu Mei saw that there was a door, glanced at each other, and walked into the back hall.

The old man took advantage of the fact that the two of them didn't see it, turned around and glared at the guy viciously, and deliberately lowered his voice: "Little rabbit cub, fortunately I came out in time, if these two girls sell this kind of treasure to other pharmacies, see that I don't break your legs!"

Nian Nian and Zhu Mei's ears are excellent, and when he walked in front and heard this, he couldn't help frowning slightly. Although the guy looked down on them before, the old man was also too fierce, and he was able to change his face so quickly, and he trembled lightly every year.
