Chapter 292 White Beard Grandpa

Ruan Wei could sense that the junior sister beside him was distracted.

She sighed secretly in her heart. Xiao Yu'er was still a little immature, and she was always not vigilant.

no way.

She’s my own junior sister, so just pamper her!

Ruan Wei began to look around.

Ruan Wei and the others were in a deep valley with high and dangerous walls. There was only a long and narrow path, and no one knew where it led.

Perhaps there was a random teleportation formation at the entrance to the Medicine Valley. In any case, Ruan Wei used his spiritual sense to explore and found that there was no one around, no sign of the direct descendant, and no sound of birds.

Ruan Wei frowned slightly.

This is quite unusual.

but.

Maybe this is the characteristic of the medicine valley?

Ruan Wei, "Let's move forward first."

The place where they landed was probably not a good place. Ruan Wei's spiritual sense searched everywhere, but he didn't find any herbs with strong spiritual power fluctuations.

The two of them gradually walked forward.

The winding path leads to a secluded place, which gradually becomes brighter.

As we walked, a lush and dense forest suddenly appeared before our eyes, with bushes standing tall and tree roots growing all over the ground.

Wu Yu sneezed.

She couldn't help but rub her nose, "Senior Sister, the smells here are too mixed."

Among the five senses of a person, some are more prominent than others. Wu Yu's sense of smell is as sensitive as Chang Huaijin's hearing.

Ruan Wei imitated her and sniffed.

really.

The Medicine Valley is just as its name suggests. All you can smell is the aroma of medicine, which is bitter and astringent, making people more awake after smelling it.

There is more than one kind of herb growing here.

The fragrance of various medicines also mixed into this windless place, making it impossible to smell them. Even people with the most sensitive sense of smell could not tell where the herbs grew.

Moreover, Ruan Wei felt something strange.

It's too quiet here, as if there is no breath of life.

It was clearly a dense forest, but there was not a single sound of any living creature.

Under the shade of trees that is big enough to block out the sun, humans seem extremely small, which makes people feel an inexplicable fear of the unknown deep in the forest.

Ruan Wei even had an illusion.

They, the direct descendants, may be the first people to visit this ancient forest in thousands of years.

Compared to Ruan Wei's inexplicable sense of awe, Wu Yu was more concerned about herbs.

She looked around and suddenly tugged at Ruan Wei's sleeve, "Senior Sister, look!"

"Is that the herb we're looking for?"

Ruan Wei came back to her senses when she was pulled by her, and she looked at the place where Wu Yu was pointing.

In a crevice in the woods, a transparent halo was softly covering a swaying herb.

It doesn't look normal.

Ruan Wei nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look."

She grabbed Wu Yu's collar, stepped on the ground with her toes, leaped up and landed gracefully.

Wu Yu was very obedient and let her carry her around.

Senior sister’s lightness skills are really good!

Ruan Wei is reckless, but not imprudent.

The two stopped two feet away from the herb.

Ruan Wei, "Do you recognize what kind of herb this is?"

She glanced at Wu Yu lightly.

Ruan Wei memorized a lot and remembered them well, so identifying herbs was a very easy task for her.

But since Wu Yu is here, Ruan Wei wants to train her even more.

Holding Yu, "..."

Here comes the senior sister’s sudden question-and-answer teaching!

She carefully examined the herb from head to toe before answering hesitantly, "It's... Qingxin, Qingxin Grass?"

"What level?"

Ruan Wei didn't say whether it was right or wrong, she asked again.

Holding Yu, "Yellow Level."

She had memorized the Qingxin Grass, and she had also seen it when her third uncle Wu Yu was helping him make the elixir. It was not that unpopular.

Anyone with a little medical knowledge should be able to recognize yellow-grade herbs. Ruan Wei thought Xiao Xuantong might even recognize them.

Ruan Wei nodded, agreeing with Wu Yu's answer.

Wu Yu had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Ruan Wei say, "Next time I'll ask you about the efficacy of the medicine."

Perhaps it was because the apprentice was like his teacher, Ruan Wei always felt that he was also thinking about developing in that direction, and he always liked to test and teach others.

Like one of those greasy males who wants to teach you something no matter what.

Wu Yu was completely exhausted.

"……oh."

Wu Yu looked around for a while, but didn't find any medicine guarding test that the head of Wandan Valley mentioned.

She said, "Hmm...do I have to touch the halo for it to appear?"

As Wu Yu was speaking, he also wanted to get started.

Ruan Wei grabbed her hand and pulled her back a little. She said calmly, "I'll do it."

The Penglai Immortal Sect never let its junior brothers and sisters test the waters first.

Wu Yu was stunned, but could only nod.

Ruan Wei, "Step back, stand further away."

"OK."

Wu Yu stepped back quickly. She didn't want to cause trouble for her senior sister, so she was very obedient.

Seeing that she was far enough away, Ruan Wei turned around and reached out to touch her.

“Wow—”

The moment the blue-white fingertips touched the halo, an illusory figure suddenly appeared beside Qingxincao.

Ruan Wei suddenly stepped back and the sword came out instantly!

The shadow gradually solidified, and an old man with a white beard appeared. He was leaning on a cane and looked very majestic.

Wu Yu exclaimed, "Grandpa with white beard!"

The old man didn't even look at her. His eyes as sharp as an eagle were fixed on Ruan Wei who touched the halo.

Ruan Wei clenched the sword in his hand and looked back at him warily.

The head of Wandan Valley said that there are always demons, people, or phantoms guarding the herbs. Only after completing the tests of these guarding creatures can you successfully pick the herbs.

Ruan Wei observed the white-bearded old man carefully.

His robe was clean, and he had no weapons around his waist. He didn't look like a martial artist.

Moreover, the old man with white beard had been out for three breaths, showing no sign of wanting to fight them. Therefore, his test was not a fight.

This relaxed Ruan Wei's tense spirit a little.

Ruan Wei bowed slightly, "Senior..."

"Shut up."

The white-bearded old man interrupted Ruan Wei impatiently. He raised his face somewhat arrogantly, and his voice sounded very arrogant:

"Tell me about the medicinal form, properties and efficacy of Qingxincao."

Ruan Wei was stunned.

The figure of the old man with white beard immediately began to become illusory, "Don't know?! How dare you disturb my sleep?! Get out——"

Ruan Wei, "Qingxincao has two-petal leaves, a thick, yellow-brown rhizome, and distinct nodules. It has the effects of clearing heat and tonifying the heart, reducing swelling and relieving pain, cooling the liver and calming nerves."

Her voice is low, and she recites the book in a particularly leisurely manner, which makes people feel convinced.

Ruan Wei just needs time to recall.

She is not a real medical practitioner and does not deal with herbs day and night.

It’s great that Ruan Wei can still remember so much.

How could a normal person answer the question with just one question? That's too abnormal!

After hearing Ruan Wei's answer, the white-bearded old man's illusory shadow paused. He instantly condensed his true form, but his expression remained unsmiling. "Hmph!"

"Take it away, take it away! It's shameful for you to answer so slowly!"

The white-bearded old man flicked his hand, and the Qingxin grass growing in the cracks of the rocks floated down into Ruan Wei's palm.

Ruan Wei bowed again, "Thank you, senior."

Seeing that she was quite polite, the old man with white beard disappeared with a hum, still muttering something like how the Wandan Valley had fallen into decline and even little girls from other sects could enter the Medicine Valley.

Ruan Wei, “…”

She casually put away the Qingxin Grass in her hand and turned to look at Wu Yu. "Let's go and find the next one."

If all the herbs I encounter next are this kind of question-and-answer test...

Then Ruan Wei suddenly felt a little confident about winning first place in this competition!

Everyone knows.

The cultural level of the direct descendants has always been very worrying.

Apart from Wandan Valley and Wangxi Valley, which only sell herbs, herbs and herbs on a daily basis, the other sects are basically blind and know nothing when asked.

Ruan Wei could already imagine Wang Xixing's helpless expression!

In one word, awesome.

Two words: so cool.

Three words: awesome!

Ruan Wei clasped his hands together.

Thank you, Second Uncle, for your "spurring" education over the years.

The cattle and horses trained in the Penglai Immortal Sect's library are not vegetarians!
