The cold moon was shining brightly, and the moonlight was reflected on the lake under the waterfall. The sparkling light came from the mountain wind. Chen Mo picked a clear and beautiful wild lily, passed a stone bridge, and walked eastward for more than a hundred feet. Arriving at a wooden house.
"Dong dong..."
Holding the lily in hand, Chen Mo adjusted his breathing and knocked on the door of Chu Wushuang's residence.
After about a cup of tea, the wooden door was pushed halfway open. Chu Wushuang stretched out his head, revealing a cold and flawless face. He looked at Chen Mo outside the door with an indifferent expression: "What's the matter?"
Chen Mo coughed lightly and sent out the graceful lily: "Fairy Chu, we may have had some misunderstandings before. If you ask the fairy to have a lot of flowers, you won't be as knowledgeable as me."
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Chu Wushuang did not go to pick up the lily, and tried to close the wooden door. Chen Mo quickly held the door panel and smiled: "Fairy, please don't be angry. I just want to ask, are you really Carry all the herbal and jade slips in the house?"
Chu Wushuang stopped his movements and said expressionlessly: "What does this have to do with you?"
At this moment, she suddenly remembered Sun Xing's teaching: If Chen Mo asks, she must say that she has memorized all the more than 3,000 jade slips and must not let them slip.
Although Chen Mo's expression did not change, he was already scolding her in his heart. This cold woman had a really weird temper. He would throw her into a river pool the first time he met her, and then he would treat her with all sorts of unwelcome behavior. Even Chen Mo stepped forward. She apologized in an indifferent manner, as if someone owed her spiritual stones.
"It's like this. Senior Sun asked me to memorize all the more than 3,000 jade slips..." Chen Mo paused and continued: "But my qualifications are dull and I really don't have any good methods, so I came here." I’m bothering you, Fairy.”
Chu Wushuang's expression remained calm: "Oh, is there anything else?"
Seeing her attitude, Chen Mo was really speechless. He resisted the urge to get angry, forced an upward curve at the corner of his mouth, smiled awkwardly, squatted down and placed Ye Lily in front of her door, and turned around. Want to leave.
Anyway, Chen Mo's attitude has already been achieved. It's not him who is rude, and he can't ask everyone to be like him. That would be torture for himself.
Moreover, although Chu Wushuang is a bit arrogant, her cultivation level is still very high. It seems that she is about the same age as Chen Mo, and the spiritual power fluctuations in her body have almost caught up with Liu Qing's level in the spirit stone mine. It's normal to have a little temper.
Before Chen Mo walked far, he heard the sound of a door closing, followed by Chu Wushuang's faint voice from inside the house.
"You can try to divide the herbal jade slips into categories first. It is faster to remember one category than to mix and match them. Or you can imagine the things you are familiar with as herbal jade slips. This is how I remember them."
Chen Mo looked back and saw that the wild lily placed at her door had disappeared. It was obvious that she had taken it into the wooden house.
"Thank you, Fairy, for informing me!" Chen Mo immediately responded loudly.
He breathed a long sigh of relief. Now it seems that Chu Wushuang's temper is not too stubborn. It turns out that he just doesn't want to show it in front of him...
Returning to the wooden house where he lived again, he cleaned up his mood and adjusted to the best state. After being silent, he said to himself:
"Chen Mo, this is a rare opportunity for you. If you can't grasp it, leave here as soon as possible. If you are not qualified enough, use perseverance to fill it. If you have nothing, then just be an ordinary person with peace of mind."
After reciting it silently three times, Chen Mo gradually forgot all the thoughts he shouldn't have. His mind was empty. He had only one goal, and that was to remember this herbal jade slip!
This time, he followed Chu Wushuang's instructions and divided all the herbs into two categories, woody and herbaceous plants. He focused on the latter first and ignored the woody plants. Look, observe the roots, stems, and leaves minutely, and don't miss every detail, including the arrangement, combination, decomposition of the herbs, and what effect will be produced after adding something, and remember it word for word.
At the same time, he imagined that he was back in Qinfeng County, and hid a herbal jade slip in No. 477, the slum area. The contents in it were also marked, and on his only way to the Chen Mansion, he hid a herbal jade slip. He hid one in the east and the other in the west, and buried these herbal and jade slips with marks. In this way, as long as he remembered the road from Chen's house to the slums, he could clearly remember the location and content of the jade slips he had hidden.
This is the method Chu Wushuang taught him. Needless to say, it really works. He will remember more than he did by rote memorization before.
One night passed, and Chen Mo just kept throwing and picking up the jade slips. The jade slips that were originally arranged neatly were now messed up all over the room. If the old man Qingjing saw this, he would definitely be cruel. You can't teach him a lesson.
But Chen Mo no longer cared about the passage of time. The properties of various herbs continued to flash before his eyes. During this period of time, he forgot about hunger and the tasks Sun Xing gave him. He only had these three thousand things in his mind. He wanted to remember the existence of the jade slip and the herbal medicinal herbs in his heart!
"Yin Ning grass, matures after thirty years of growth, and its roots are about an inch black..."
"Snow jade ginseng grows on ice cliffs. It is silver-white in color and can be used as the main medicine for the blood jade pill in the foundation stage..."
"This flower... the stamens look like a ghost face, and the leaves have seven petals. It must be another herb similar to the Soul-Sending Flower I saw before!"
Chen Mo slowly moved his hand away from covering the name. Sure enough, the name of this strange flower was just as he expected. The three words he wanted to see were clearly written on the jade slip!
He looked happy, and the joy of success prompted him to continue. Another day passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Mo's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, and he browsed more and more jade slips. "Haha, you guys want to confuse the public again... Blood Cloud Grass, Blood Phoenix Grass, Blood Essence Grass, do you think you can deceive me a second time!" Chen Mo saw the excitement and muttered to himself, If anyone else saw this, they would definitely think that this person was crazy.
Sun Xing came once on the third day when Chen Mo was in a state of obsession. Seeing him in such a state, he was surprised for a while, but did not say anything to stop him. He sent the food to the house and left quietly.
But what he didn't notice was that the ordinary little black stone on Chen Mo's chest suddenly lit up, but it soon returned to calm.
On the fourth day, Chen Mo's behavior suddenly became weird. His eyes were open, but his body seemed to be sleepwalking. Not only that, he browsed the jade slips very quickly. After just a few glances, Then he threw it aside, and then went to get a jade slip. The efficiency was more than three times faster than when he was in the dazed state on the third day!
Chen Mo felt as if he had had a dream. It was pitch black before his eyes. He tried hard to see things clearly, but there was no light. He couldn't help but think to himself, it would be nice if it could be brighter.
Suddenly, a candlestick illuminated, dispelling the darkness in front of him, and he could see clearly. At this moment, he was standing in a wooden house. The room was empty except for the candle in the northeast corner that illuminated the room. .
"not enough...."
Chen Mo thought, and connected to the wooden house, there was another room that was much larger than this one, and it was still empty.
"I seem to be carrying a jade slip of medicinal herbs..."
Chen Mo suddenly remembered his purpose, why was he here? What should he do if he fails to complete the task? It would be great if there were a bunch of jade slips here for him to recite.
Just when he had this idea in his mind, he heard a rumble in the empty wooden house. He walked over and took a look, and was completely shocked. His dream had really come true! All the medicinal herbal jade slips that were previously outside were moved into the house! !
He couldn't wait to rush over, picked up a jade slip and read it. It was exactly the same as what he saw in the outside world. Moreover, his memory in the dream was completely different from the outside world. In less than a while, he had read the entire jade slip. The contents of the jade slips are engraved in my heart.
Chen Mo was very excited: "Is there such a good place? I can also carry jade slips in my dreams. I've come to the right place!"
How can he be in a daze and waste time? He doesn't know how long this dream will last. What if he wakes up in the next second? He took advantage of his sleep to memorize as many as he could. It didn't take long for him to memorize the medicinal jade slips on the first row of shelves.
"A little hungry..."
Chen Mo saw the jade slips on the shelf in the third row, touched his stomach, and frowned. Since whatever comes to mind, he might as well imagine some food coming out.
Sure enough, in another wooden house, a pile of food was placed on the ground and appeared in front of him. He walked over and took a look and saw that the food was a little cold, but it was still enough to fill his stomach. After solving the problem in three times, he turned back to the wooden house where the jade slips were stacked.
This dream actually lasted for a long time. Several times, Chen Mo actually found that the pure old man Sun Xing also appeared in his dream, and even brought fresh meals to him. But every time he saw him, he was surprised and confused. He looked at him with doubtful eyes and said nothing. He didn't know why.
Chen Mo had no interest in talking to him, so he finished his meal in silence and went back to read.
In the dream, Chen Mo could also feel the passage of time. After more than two months, he had finished reading the contents of the jade slip in the last storage bag, and there was a feeling of loss in his expression.
"Is this a dream or reality?"
Chen Mo knew he was dreaming, but he felt like something really existed here. The hazy feeling of the two being entangled made him confused.
However, the reserve of more than 3,000 medicinal herb jade slips that filled his mind was not fake. Even if Chen Mo could pick out any jade slip among them, he would know what was written in it.
Never forget? He thought to himself, it was not like the situation. Besides, he did not have a once-in-a-lifetime physique, and he was not a foundation-building monk who could imprint his spiritual consciousness on jade slips. How could he have such extraordinary abilities?
Although he was once a monk at the eighth level of Qi Refining, his spiritual consciousness was extremely inferior, so in terms of memory, his shallow spiritual consciousness was not of much help.
He wanted to expand the world outside the wooden house, but no matter how he imagined, the range of action was only between the two wooden houses.
"What...what the hell is going on?"
Chen Mo was surprised, and just had the idea of exploring it, but at this moment, his dream suddenly showed signs of shattering like a mirror, the wooden house shook, and a severe dizziness surged into his brain, without any resistance. Due to the strength, Chen Mo's vision went dark and he fainted.
