Because Huaishu Clinic is only open to the public at midnight, it is closed during the day. Zhang Fan and the four of them had no choice but to find a gate near the clinic to sit down and rest.
Last night, almost all of them maintained a high concentration of energy. At this moment, their bodies and minds were exhausted. Although they rested for a while on the carriage back, the time was still too short and they did not get a good rest at all.
Now that the Huaishu Clinic is closed, it can be used to refresh themselves. If other tasks are announced by then, they will have more energy to come to the opposite side.
It was time to rest, but Zhang Fan and the four of them did not rest together. Instead, they left one person alone to stand guard, taking turns to rest.
After all, this is a world with a maze scene. No one can guarantee that some terrifying ghosts or beasts will suddenly appear and attack them.
You know, last night, there was a terrorist attack by wild wolves on the muddy path in front of Huaishu Clinic.
...The person standing guard in the first round is Zhang Fan. His energy is pretty good, and with the nails in the coffin in hand, he can hold on for a while.
With Zhang Fan standing guard, Li Mu and the other three sat down and leaned against the cold wall. After a while, they fell asleep.
After a long while, Zhou Jianren was the first to wake up. He stretched out and came to replace Zhang Fan on guard. Zhang Fan saw this and did not refuse. After thinking for a while, he handed the coffin nails to him, saying that this was the thing. It can drive away evil spirits or scare beasts.
As for the method of using coffin nails, Zhang Fan did not tell Zhou Jianren. Although they had experienced many life-and-death crises together, he still knew the importance of being cautious.
Zhang Fan sleeps very lightly. As long as there is a slight disturbance, he can wake up immediately. He believes in Zhou Jianren's duty, but he is not absolute.
After Zhang Fan fell asleep, and another half day passed, Su Qian yawned, stood up, and came to replace Zhou Jianren.
Zhou Jianren handed the coffin nail to Su Qian, told Su Qian exactly what Zhang Fan said, and went to bed.
Su Qian held the coffin nails and looked around to see if there was anything strange, then she looked at Zhang Fan. After staring for a while, her face turned slightly red, and she quickly turned away, not daring to look.
At this time, Zhou Jianren returned to the stone pier, slowly closed his eyes, and began to continue sleeping. After another long while, Li Mu woke up. He walked to Su Qian and came over to replace the guard.
In fact, this way of standing guard is not strict. Zhang Fan and the four of them basically sleep as much as they can. Don't force it, it all depends on the individual. They all have a certain degree of control in their hearts.
The day passed in the blink of an eye, the sun gradually set, and the sky gradually darkened. At this moment, Zhang Fan and others had almost rotated their posts several times. Everyone had slept for nearly seven or eight hours, and all the fatigue from last night was gone.
After a long time, a bright moon hung high in the sky, emitting a dazzling bright light, dispersing a lot of the dark atmosphere of the earth.
...At this moment, the street lamps on both sides of the muddy road buzzed and the lights bloomed. At the same time, the Huaishu Clinic, which was originally dark and closed, also lit up lights.
Seeing the bright light inside the Huaishu Clinic, Zhang Fan looked happy, said hello to Li Mu and the others, then came to the glass door, reached out and pushed hard, and with a creaking sound, the glass door was easily opened.
Entering it, Zhang Fan and the others immediately saw Hou Kunxiao sitting on a chair, flipping through a thick medical book.
"Hello, doctor, we found the soul-returning grass!!" Zhang Fan came to Hou Kunxiao's side, took out five soul-returning grasses from the system backpack and handed them to him.
Hearing Zhang Fan's voice, Hou Kunxiao looked up at Zhang Fan with surprise. When he saw the soul-reviving grass, his eyes suddenly showed disbelief.
Hou Kunxiao actually didn't have much hope that Zhang Fan and others could recover herbs such as Soul-Returning Grass.
Because the road to Qingshan Town is extremely dangerous. Whether it is the Wild Wolf Valley, the Piranha Creek, or the Great Plains of the Vultures, the danger and difficulty are extremely terrifying.
If outsiders want to pass safely, it is almost impossible to reach the sky, and they may even lose their lives. Once, Hou Kunxiao actually went to Qingshan Town alone, but he was persuaded to turn back only halfway.
He... couldn't cross the piranha creek, and even on that occasion, he almost died in the creek.
"You guys..." Hou Kunxiao rubbed the soul-reviving grass in his hand in disbelief, staring straight at Zhang Fan and the others.
"Okay! You have successfully found the Soul-Returning Grass this time. I will help you treat your injuries now!" After a long silence, Hou Kunxiao exhaled a deep breath, carefully put away the Soul-Returning Grass, and then, from behind the wooden cabinet, He took out the jade bottle containing the restored blood volume, took out four pills from it, and handed them to Zhang Fan and the other four.
"Eat it and you will recover to a certain extent from your injuries!!" Hou Kunxiao looked at Zhang Fan and said. After hearing this, Zhang Fan put the pill under his nose, smelled it cautiously, then put the pill in his mouth and swallowed it.
The moment the pill was swallowed, Zhang Fan saw that the survivor's health bar in the lower left corner was recovering rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few seconds, it had returned to forty drops of blood.
The amount of blood recovered was not much, only 39 drops. Seeing this scene, Zhang Fan frowned slightly, thinking that they had worked so hard and almost lost their lives to get the Soul-Reviving Grass. Unexpectedly, in the end, they only recovered 39 drops of blood, which was too cheating.
Zhang Fan turned back and glanced at Li Mu and the others, and saw that their faces were not very good either, and it was obvious that their blood volume had not recovered much.
Zhang Fan had a bitter look on his face. If every mission was completed and the amount of blood recovered was so small, then how long would it take to fully recover the blood?
Although his full blood volume is only 180 drops, it is really difficult to truly recover. Hou Kunxiao saw Zhang Fan's thoughts, and said with a smile on his face: "The injuries restored by these pills are just random. If you are willing to help me find some more medicinal materials, I can give you some more pills!" Because After Zhang Fan and others successfully retrieved the Soul-Returning Grass, Hou Kunxiao finally recognized Zhang Fan and the others' strength, and was willing to entrust them with something more important.
If they can still get it back, then they can...
"You guys go to Green Flower Town again and help me buy some Mingxincao. As long as I can find this herb and come back, I will... help you treat your injuries!" Hou Kunxiao said with a smile, and then the conversation changed. : "However, the journey is extremely dangerous. You have to pass through the Troll Canyon before you can get there..."
"Mingxincao?" When Zhang Fan heard the word Mingxincao, there was a roar in his mind. He subconsciously took out two small grasses that looked like dogtail grass from the system backpack and handed them to Hou Kunxiao.
These two grasses were forced on him by the medicine shop owner from Qingshan Town when he was drunk.
"F*ck!" Hou Kunxiao, who had been smiling just now, saw the two grasses, his smile instantly froze on his face, and he couldn't help but curse.
After a brief daze, Hou Kunxiao came back to his senses. At the same time, his expression also made a 180-degree change, revealing a flattering apology smile.
He grabbed Zhang Fan's hand, put his arms around his back and took him aside. He said with a smile: "I said, brother! You are really capable. You even have such things. No wonder I saw you. There is a sense of intimacy that feels like old friends at first sight!" Zhang Fan: "..."
"Brother, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Hou Kunxiao. Hou is Hou Kunxiao's Hou, Kun is Hou Kunxiao's Kun, and Xiao is Hou Kunxiao's Xiao. Hehe, brother, how many of these Alyssum do you still have? How many do you have, I will give them all. If you want, I will never treat you badly!" Hou Kunxiao pulled Zhang Fan into chatting enthusiastically, both inside and outside of his words wanting more Mingxincao.
When Zhang Fan heard this, his eyes widened. He was surprised by Hou Kunxiao's rapid change of attitude. He always felt that there was something behind what the other party said. As for what it was, he didn't know what it was.
"Yes, there are, but not many. There are only eight..." Zhang Fan took out the remaining eight Mingxincao plants from his system backpack and handed them to Hou Kunxiao.
At that time, the owner of the medicine shop gave him a total of ten plants of Mingxincao, but now that they were given to Hou Kunxiao, they are no longer available.
"That's enough! That's enough!!" Hou Kunxiao snatched the remaining eight Mingxin grass, took a look at it, and after confirming that it was genuine, he put it away with a smile.
"Good brother! Haha, what a good brother!!" Hou Kunxiao's smile became brighter and he called Zhang Fan a good brother.
"Brother, if you can help me find some Soul Gathering Grass..." Hou Kunxiao looked at Zhang Fan with an expectant look in his eyes.
"Pore-pouring grass?! Is this it?" Zhang Fan thought of the third medicinal material that the medicine shop owner gave him. It was the so-called soul-pouring grass. In addition to the soul-pouring grass, there seemed to be a big tonic grass. .
Thinking of these two kinds of grass, Zhang Fan simply took out them all at once, saving Hou Kunxiao from asking any more questions.
There were a lot of herbs taken out, including ten more Soul-Returning Grasses, ten Soul-Judging Grasses, and ten Great Replenishing Grasses, for a total of thirty herbs.
The moment he placed these herbs on the table, Hou Kunxiao's face suddenly changed. Then his breathing became extremely rapid, and cold sweat overflowed on his forehead. After taking a few deep breaths, he collapsed on the ground, his eyes I was in a daze, not knowing what else to think about.
This situation lasted for a while. Hou Kunxiao stood up staggeringly and quickly came to the table to look at it carefully. After confirming that it was the herb he needed most, he quickly clasped his fists and bowed to Zhang Fan: "Brother, starting from today , I will become your sworn brother to Jinlan!!!" Zhang Fan: "..."
