The majestic mountains stretch endlessly, and the clouds are so deep that I don’t know where to go.
Ruoshui held Ruoxuan and walked steadily on the path into the mountain.
The mountain near the village is very large and rolling. Many villagers usually come to the mountain to pick wild vegetables, mushrooms, chop firewood, hunt pheasants, and hunt hares.
Because there are frequent human activities, animals rarely come here, so it is relatively safe and there are no large beasts.
Ruoshui only dared to take his daughter for a walk around the perimeter, and did not dare to go into the mountains. He wanted to catch the prey he could find, but he couldn't just forget it.
As soon as Ruoxuan entered the mountain, she sniffed and pointed in a certain direction: "Dad, go over there. There is a Smilax smilax over there."
Smilax Ruoshui knew about it, and he happened to know him too. When Weoshan came home before, he took him up the mountain to dig, and he walked over with Xuan Bao in his arms.
The rhizome of Smilax poria is used as medicine and has the effects of clearing away heat, detoxifying and dehumidifying.
People in the village love to cook Smilax smilax, five-finger hairy head, red bean and coix seed soup.
"Right there!" After a while, Ruoxuan said pointing not far away.
This place is already relatively remote, but Wu Shui has beaten a tiger to death with one punch, so he is not afraid.
When the couple took a look, they saw that it was really Smilax!
Mrs. Liu was surprised and said: "Xuanbao, how did you know that this is Smilax?"
Even if the family digs it back, what they bring back is the rhizome without leaves.
Ruoxuan opened her big round eyes, thinking about what Mrs. Lei said this morning: "Last night in my dream, an old man with a white beard taught me how to identify many medicinal materials, and I knew it!"
So Xiao Xiancao came to the human world for internship and learned the first skill - telling lies with open eyes!
Mrs. Liu: "..."
My mother-in-law learned the ripening technique in a dream, and the persimmons at home ripened overnight. Now my daughter also dreams about someone teaching her how to identify medicinal materials?
Why is it so mysterious?
Ruoshui felt that it was not that simple, but his daughter was his daughter, and he would believe whatever her daughter said. He handed her over to Mr. Liu: "I'm here to hoe, you have to hurry up, or it will get dark!"
Mrs. Liu quickly hugged her daughter and stopped worrying.
Ruoshui picked up the hoe and started hoeing.
Ruoxuan sniffed and pointed in a certain direction: "Mom, there is Morinda officinalis over there, there is Yuanbao grass over there, there is night-scented cow over there..."
Mrs. Liu: "..."
I’ve heard of Morinda officinalis, but Yexiang Niu? What is this? The night fragrance of cattle?
"Mom, let's go and pull out the ingot grass and night scented cow first. The roots of Morinda citrifolia are used as medicine. Let dad do the hoeing."
Weak Shui took a look around and saw that there were no traces of large animals, and the place his daughter pointed to was within his sight and range.
He nodded to Mr. Liu, "Go! Don't go far."
Mrs. Liu then walked over with Ruoxuan in her arms.
Both Yuanbaocao and Yexiangniu are whole plants used as medicine. After asking Ruoxuan how to pick them, Liu laid out a sack and asked Ruoxuan to sit while she pulled the weeds.
As for whether it was herbal medicine, grass, or the night fragrance of cows, Mr. Liu didn't know.
Never mind it! Pull it out first. If it is of no use, take it back and dry it for firewood.
Ruoxuan didn't help, she still wanted to catch the hare.
She sat there and saw her parents busy digging for medicinal materials, so she quietly released a little spiritual power.
Everything has a spirit, and everything needs a spirit.
The spiritual power she releases has been purified through her practice. It is very pure and can attract some small animals.
Because her spiritual power is the spirit of vegetation, it especially attracts some herbivorous animals, and since this place is relatively far away from the mountains, she doesn't release much, so she doesn't have to worry about attracting tigers or the like.
Ruoxuan sat there and waited, twisting her head and looking around, until she finally heard some movement!
A pheasant flapped its wings and flew straight towards Xiuxuan!
When Ruoshui heard the noise, he was startled. He grabbed a piece of Smilax root and wanted to throw it away.
Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she rushed over to protect the child, fearing that the pheasant would peck Xuan Bao's eyes!
Then the couple saw their daughter slapping her small hands and knocking the pheasant to the ground, including the piece of Smilax cocos.
Weak Shui: "..."
Mrs. Liu: "..."
Ruoxuan picked up the pheasant on the ground and said happily: "Dad, mother, pheasant! Let's eat chicken stewed with mushrooms tonight!"
The name of this dish was mentioned by Liu on the way up the mountain. He said that after catching pheasants and picking mushrooms, he would stew chickens and stew mushrooms.
Mrs. Liu looked at her husband with light in her eyes: "My husband, Xuan Bao must be like you, so powerful!"
Her husband is so powerful!
Weak Shui: "..."
When he was three years old, he didn't seem to be so powerful!
Can you hit a pheasant with just one slap?
Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog daughter!
Just as he was about to run over and kiss his daughter, Ruoshui heard the rustling of leaves, and a goat came into view!
The goat ran over quickly, suddenly saw someone, turned around and ran away.
Weasui immediately picked up the bow and arrow, drew the bow and released the arrow.
Hit with one arrow!
The goat fell straight to the ground.
A few hares jumped out in a hurry, and the pheasants were so frightened that they ran away and flew away.
Suddenly there was a rush of chickens and rabbits!
In an emergency, a rabbit even hit a tree trunk and fainted!
Weak Shui shot several arrows one after another.
Ruoxuan also grabbed the stones and threw them, but she also hit two?
Xuexuan ran over and picked it up excitedly: "I caught the hare!"
Mrs. Liu was dumbfounded, came to her senses, and ran to pick up the prey.
"One pheasant, two pheasants, three pheasants,... one hare, two hares,... one goat!" Ruoxuan counted, and this time she caught a goat, four pheasants, and three. A hare.
Very good!
Ms. Liu: "The hares and pheasants in this forest are crazy!"
Weak Shui was also shocked, this was too easy! His first hunt was so easy.
Usually it is difficult to hunt any prey unless you go deeper.
Ruoshui looked at his little girl, Xuan Bao was simply a lucky treasure!
“Dad, hurry up and dig, we’ll go home for dinner after digging!”
The couple quickly came to their senses and immediately continued digging for herbs.
Ruoxuan sat there and continued to practice. She had only released a little spiritual energy just now. After a day of sunshine today, the spiritual energy accumulated in her Dantian was a little more than last night. The remaining spiritual energy was barely enough to ripen a fruit tree.
Ruoxuan felt around and found a wild chestnut tree not far away, as well as a field of wild grapes and a wild kiwi.
The chestnuts were about to ripen, which consumed less spiritual energy. The wild grapes were too big, and the fruit was too sour. I thought it was delicious, but consumed too much spiritual energy. Wu Xuan decisively gave up on the wild grapes and chose to ripen the chestnuts first. So does kiwi.
So when Ruoshui and Mrs. Liu finished digging all the medicinal materials and were about to go down the mountain, Ruoxuan said, "Dad, let's go down the mountain from here. There is a chestnut tree in front of us with ripe chestnuts."
After saying that, Ruoxuan ran out first.
Ms. Liu quickly followed up: "Xuan Bao, don't run, wait, mother! You'll fall if you run so fast!"
Weasui also quickly picked up the burden to follow.
