Wei Cheng fell asleep in a daze last night. When he woke up, Wei Cheng was hesitant.
Do you want to cut this long hair?
Wei Cheng looked at himself in the mirror. What he had to say was that he seemed to be looking pretty good with his long hair.
This is actually quite normal. He is quite good-looking to begin with, with straight and upright features and fair skin like a young boy.
This is also inseparable from his profession. After all, he is studying traditional Chinese medicine and pharmacy, and he has already lived a life of soaking wolfberry in a thermos cup.
The only surprise is that, like many male film and television stars, he looks ordinary when wearing modern clothes, but after wearing ancient clothes, his energy immediately rises, and he is said to be suave and charming... …It’s not an exaggeration.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Wei Cheng was hesitating whether to go to the barber shop.
"This is...Imperata cogongrass root, or wild Imperata cogongrass root!"
I planned to put the ancient costume on the floor into the washing machine to clean it, but when I opened it, a brown-green tree root was exposed. Wei Cheng's eyes lit up. As a pharmacist, he knew this stuff very well.
Don't talk about it at all, let's just say that the liver-protecting pills promised to Uncle Zhou last night required this Imperata Imperata root.
"This is……"
Wei Cheng fell into deep thought, recalling the scene of falling into the water last night. He grabbed a handful at random, and he did catch something at that time.
"Perhaps, that world... I should go there again."
Without him, Wei Cheng was addicted to making meatballs and couldn't help himself. He didn't have many hobbies in his life. Going to the mountains to collect medicine and hiking were his daily leisure activities. Sometimes he would go to the mountains for more than half a month just for good medicine.
This is also the main reason why his fiancée said that he is not responsible. Sometimes when he needs others, he collects medicine in the mountains. Even a woman can't stand his behavior. He really deserves it.
"It seems that I still have to keep my long hair."
As a man of action, he just ate a box of instant noodles in the morning to cope with the situation.
The equipment for mountain climbing and medicine collection was available at home, but what to wear put him in a dilemma.
After much deliberation, Wei Cheng still put on the Hanfu, but he chose to wear modern underwear and shorts underneath. The pocket cloth was so uncomfortable that he couldn't stand it no matter what.
When everything was ready, Wei Cheng came to the balcony on the second floor.
As expected, ripples appeared on the surface of the sliding glass door.
Wei Cheng took a deep breath and walked in without hesitation.
···
When he opened his eyes again, he was already beside a river bank.
There are tall reeds all around, the sun in the sky is hot and scorching, and there is a layer of steam rippling on the water surface, refracting the space.
After Wei Cheng looked around, he walked eastward in the direction of the sun.
The sickle in my hand split the layers of reeds sharply and neatly. To my surprise, I picked up a few green-shelled mallard eggs on the way.
From time to time, you can see pheasants and ducks flying away in the mountains. Compared with modern times where high-voltage power towers are everywhere, such scenes are rare.
There is a slingshot in Wei Cheng's hiking bag, and his slingshot skills are pretty good. If he hadn't been unfamiliar with the place, he would have planned to hunt two pheasants and have a meal of beggar's chicken here at noon. There are all kinds of condiments in the backpack. All the ingredients are available.
Continuing to walk forward, after walking about a few hundred meters, I finally saw a muddy dirt road.
The road runs from south to north and is about three to four meters wide. There are also conspicuous wheel marks on the road.
Wei Cheng got closer and observed. In addition to wheel marks, there were also footprints of horses, cows, donkeys and other livestock. There were many human footprints, but relatively few.
Looking at the ends of the road on both sides, Wei Cheng frowned slightly.
Following the road, you can definitely find people. However, when he thought of the woman who stared at him in the mourning hall last night, he finally gave up the idea of looking for a human being.
When Wei Cheng was not sure what kind of world this was, he decided to wait for a while before talking.
Wei Cheng looked towards the mountains not far away. The mountains also ran north-south and stretched for unknown directions. Birds occasionally flew and landed in the lush and dense woods. At a glance, he knew that they were deep mountains and old forests.
Wei Cheng took out the slingshot and spray for self-defense from his bag, and checked the snake venom serum and special anthelmintics he had brought. After making sure that nothing was missing, he walked decisively towards the mountain.
···
"Oh, there are so many herbs."
One morning, Wei Cheng gained a lot.
There are no less than a hundred kinds of herbs that can be seen everywhere on the mountain tops, among which Ziziphus jujube kernel, honeysuckle, skullcap, Bupleurum, Atractylodes, red peony root, Polygonatum odoratum, Polygonatum odoratum, Anemarrhena, Salvia miltiorrhiza, etc. are the most popular. You can almost step on one with just one step. .
Wei Cheng became very excited and collected all kinds of herbs. Fortunately, the hiking bag he brought was big enough, so it was not a problem to hold these herbs. What he didn't expect was that in addition to various types of herbs, there were also many mineral medicinal materials here.
For example: talc, montstone, keel, amethyst, stalactite, magnet, etc.
He also found elk tracks in the mountain col, which means there are still wild animals in the mountains, and biological medicinal materials such as deer antlers, scorpions, and centipedes may also be found... Haha!
Near noon, he found a hilltop, surrounded the stove with stones, and planned to cook himself a bowl of instant noodles.
There are many herbs collected, and the most important thing is that these herbs are all wild, and their efficacy is not comparable to those of modern artificially grown herbs. This is the main reason why he feels so happy.
While Wei Cheng was cooking instant noodles.
Only a hundred meters away from him, an old man, a young man and his grandson were taking a short break by the stream.
The child was only about eight or nine years old. She was holding a dark piece of multi-grain steamed bun in her hand and chewing on it. Her nose twitched and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Aweng, it smells so good!"
The old man has white hair, a stooped body, his fingers are like dead branches, and his face is full of wrinkles. His clothes are also very simple. His long gown has been washed white and is covered with patches.
"It smells so good." The old man looked upwind and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
The only ration was given to the grandson. He had not eaten a grain of corn for two days and was already extremely hungry. If he hadn't smelled the fragrance, he would have been able to get through it, but as soon as he smelled the fragrance, it gave him unbearable abdominal pain.
The boy rolled his eyes and encouraged, "Ah, let's go take a look?"
The old man secretly thought that the people who gather herbs, collect wood, and hunt in the Luliang Mountains are basically poor people from the surrounding villages, but there are exceptions. Maybe some young master went into the mountains to hunt. If he met such a person, I'm afraid it would only increase his troubles.
Thinking of this, the old man shook his head decisively, but unexpectedly, the boy ran out like flying without giving him a chance to speak.
"Aning, wait for me, hey, this girl..."
The old man sighed softly and hurriedly picked up the backpack on the side. The backpack was half as tall as him and was full of herbs.
The boy in front of him ran out of sight, and the old man hurriedly followed him.
When I walked to the place where the fire was smoky, I heard someone say: "Want to eat?"
Before the old man came up to say hello, the boy Aning responded innocently: "Yeah, it smells so good."
The man smiled and said: "Then sit down and eat together. Do you want poached eggs?"
