Chapter 129 Teaching Herbs

There was a hint of concern in her tone, her brows furrowed slightly, but there was a hint of amusement in her eyes.

The chubby female pouts, the flesh on her face squeezes together, forming wrinkles. She looks unhappy and mutters:

“But this jerky smells really good.”

The other three female cubs laughed out loud, some of them covered their stomachs with their hands, some were almost crying with laughter, and one of them said while laughing:

"You, don't worry about it. Just lose the weight first."

"By the way, my name is Yuanyuan."

The chubby female cub said this, her chubby face trembling slightly as she spoke, her eyes narrowed into slits, and a friendly smile spread across her face, as if she was quite satisfied with her name.

The person who had just comforted her said, "My name is Jingru!"

As she spoke, she tilted her head slightly, a strand of hair fell from her cheek, and she gently brushed it behind her ear, her eyes revealing tranquility and peace.

"My name is Haiyue..."

Everyone introduced themselves and the atmosphere became more harmonious.

They invited Xia Yueke to go out and play, and Xia Yueke went outside with them to bask in the sun.

From them, Xia Yueke learned that there were four orcs who served as teachers in the cub school. Besides Qi'an, there was another orc like him who specialized in teaching the cubs their abilities. Speaking of that orc, their voices unconsciously lowered a few notches. The cubs usually called him the Great Witch, whose full title was the Young School Great Witch.

Another one is an old female who specializes in teaching the cubs about herbs, and the last one is a sturdy and muscular orc who specializes in teaching the male cubs how to hunt. His agile posture when demonstrating hunting techniques often leaves the male cubs stunned.

Here, there are only four of them in the class every day.

"Oh, I'm tired of it. Besides, the Qi'an Hall Master is always so strict. And the Great Witch is even scarier than the Hall Master!"

Yuanyuan pouted, looking miserable, with a double chin popping out, and her eyes were full of helplessness and fear of attending class.

Xia Yueke’s ears pricked up. It was even more terrifying than Qi’an. What kind of existence was that?

All kinds of strange and ferocious appearances emerged in her mind.

But she doesn't know now, so I'll tell her when I teach her the ability.

But she had to pay attention in this class and not get distracted like before. After all, she wanted to be like Aisha, where she could create a world of ice and snow with just a wave of her hand, hehehe...

Xia Yue was thinking happily, when the familiar bell rang, it seemed that it was time for the second class.

Several people immediately returned to the big stone house. On the slightly higher wooden steps in front, an old female was standing on it. She looked at the young orcs lovingly as they returned to their seats.

Xia Yueke also quickly sat down, with his back straight, his hands placed neatly on the stone table in front of him, looking at her curiously.

I kept wondering what kind of herbal knowledge she was going to teach me. Would I be able to recognize all kinds of magical herbs? Would there be some magical herbs that could cure all diseases? It would be really advanced. Maybe after learning it, I could become as powerful as the legendary miracle doctor.

Her voice was old and kind, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

"here!"

Xia Yueke immediately raised her little hand.

The old female looked over and said, "Oh, hello. My name is Diexu. I specialize in teaching you herbal medicine and weaving skills!"

Her voice is gentle and kind, like a spring breeze, gently blowing across the heart, making people unconsciously feel close to her.

Her friendly attitude brightened Xia Yueke's eyes. Xia Yueke tilted her head slightly, raised a lovely arc at the corner of her mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and said crisply:

"My name is Xia Yueke, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Teacher Diexu. I'm really curious about herbal knowledge. I feel like those herbs are so magical, just waiting for me to discover them!"

Seeing how enthusiastic Xia Yueke was, Diexu immediately laughed twice, "Okay, okay, I will teach you well!"

Diexu waved her hand gently, signaling everyone to be quiet, and began today's explanation of herbal knowledge.

She pointed with her dry but nimble fingers at several herbal samples placed on the stone table and said:

"Today, let's start by getting to know these common herbs. This one is called angelica sinensis. Its leaves are slender and have serrated edges. They have a light and elegant fragrance. If you crush it and apply it to a wound, it can quickly stop bleeding and pain, and it can also prevent infection."

As she spoke, Diexu gently picked up the fragrant grass, sniffed it, and her face was full of intoxication.

Xia Yueke listened attentively, staring at the herbs in Diexu's hand without blinking, afraid of missing any details.

Her mind kept imagining what angelica would look like growing in the wild and how to find and pick it.

Diexu picked up another herb and continued:

"This is sleep grass. Its flowers are lavender with tightly closed petals. Don't be fooled by its pretty appearance; it has a powerful hypnotic effect. Just boil it into a soup; half a bowl can put an adult orc into a deep sleep. It's a good remedy for insomnia, but excessive use can be dangerous, so everyone should keep this in mind."

At this moment, a naughty male cub couldn't help yawning and muttered softly:

"This grass sounds so boring. I'd rather learn to hunt."

His words caused several cubs around him to chuckle softly.

Die Xu was not angry, but just shook his head slightly and said:

"Herbal knowledge is extremely important. If you get injured or sick in the wild someday, this knowledge could save your life. Just like last time, a little cub was accidentally stung by a poisonous sting. If they hadn't known how to use the antidote herbs, the consequences would have been disastrous."

After hearing this, Xia Yueke became more determined to learn herbal knowledge. She sat up straighter, her eyes full of concentration and persistence. She raised her hand from time to time to ask questions and actively interacted with Die Xu. The atmosphere in the classroom gradually became lively.

This time, Xia Yueke felt that time passed very quickly, and it was time to rest again in a short while.

She stretched lazily, with a look of unsatisfied feeling on her face, and the pen in her hand was still turning unconsciously at her fingertips.

"It's break time, play for a while and then go eat!"

Die Xu's voice rang out in the classroom, like a decree of amnesty for the whole world.

Die Xu looked at the sun outside and figured out the time.

I saw her squinting her eyes slightly, and the sunlight shone on her face, outlining her delicate features.

"The sun is right in the middle. Time flies so fast. It feels like I've only been learning for a short time."
