God knows! She has loved growing flowers and plants since she was a child. Since she was old enough to understand, she has started to try to grow some small plants. Those flowers and plants have never lived for more than a month in her hands!
After her wood talent awakened, she thought the situation would improve, but unexpectedly, these flowers and plants still couldn't survive more than a month in her hands!
She didn't believe in evil and planted a lot of easy-to-grow moon amaranth. It is said that this kind of grass can survive without any care.
But!
She carefully nurtured the moon amaranth, but she felt its vitality gradually dissipate. In less than ten days, almost all of the moon amaranth died...
An Ran looked at Xu Errong anxiously, waiting for his answer.
"Yes, before these houses were occupied, the first-year students took turns to look after them. Now that they have owners, they have to take care of the flowers and plants themselves."
Xu Errong looked at the medicinal herbs in front of him with gentle eyes, as if he was looking at his beloved, and spoke with a smile on his face.
An Ran looked at Xu Errong, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Could she please not do that? Ahhhhhh… But from what Xu Errong said, it seemed like every courtyard here was like this…
For the sake of her future studies, she thought it would be better for her to take precautions first...
"Brother...um...what if I...kill all these herbs...does the pharmacy still have them for sale?"
An Ran's face was filled with resentment. She couldn't help but feel resentful. After all... other wood magicians had such a smooth time growing those herbs, almost always with success. If everyone grew them, then... it's possible that the pharmacy wouldn't sell them...
Speaking of this, Xu Errong's expression became serious. He looked An Ran in the eyes and said seriously, "Most pharmacies don't have these herbs. You have to grow them yourself. If you don't grow them well, you can only exchange them for pills and pharmacies, which is not cost-effective. I suggest you grow them well."
Can it be changed? An Ran caught these words with her sharp ears, completely ignoring everything else Xu Errong said. Her mood suddenly brightened. If it can be changed, that's good. Then it won't be a problem even if all her species die?
An Ran's eyes flashed with joy, and she asked Xu Errong in surprise, "How did you change it?"
Xu Errong looked at An Ran's instantly excited mood and without thinking, poured a bucket of cold water on her, the kind with icy chips in it: "One pill can be exchanged for five herbs of the same grade. If you want to exchange pills, it's almost impossible."
Holy crap! One pill can only be exchanged for five medicinal herbs!
Are you kidding me?! Refining even the simplest first-grade elixir requires fifteen medicinal herbs, and that's assuming it succeeds on the first try. If it doesn't, how many herbs will it take?! How many elixirs will I have to exchange for it?!
An Ran looked at Xu Errong with a look of grief and indignation: "Are you kidding me?! How can this be changed? This is simply an unfair clause! Who made this provision?!"
Xu Errong did not answer. He stood aside and carefully admired An Ran's changing expression. He watched An Ran's mood change from joy to surprise to shock to grief and anger, until she finally accepted the fact helplessly.
"Why are you staring at me?" An Ran felt a little uneasy when Xu Errong stared at her, as if she were a circus acrobat.
"It's nothing, I just admire you. I think I had the same expression back then, and was so hit by my senior brothers and sisters. Now looking at your expression, I feel really good." Xu Errong said jokingly.
…
So... you were hit by your senior brothers and sisters, and then you hit and ridiculed me, are you trying to get some satisfaction from me?
An Ran couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. What a twisted mentality!
"Okay, I understand. I'll try my best to grow them well..." She looked at Xu Errong speechlessly, with a hint of sadness in her tone. It seems that she will have to go out more often to buy medicinal herbs in the future.
Oh, my God! My elixir, my elixir! Please allow me to mourn for a moment.
"Okay, don't think about those trivial things. The college regulations prohibit anyone from bringing in medicinal herbs from outside." Xu Errong knew what An Ran was thinking with just a glance, and he reminded her lightly.
These light words immediately provoked An Ran's anger. Why did she feel that coming to this academy was a mistake? Refining medicine required growing herbs by oneself. What kind of alchemist would grow herbs all day long? How could learning alchemy be enjoyable?
She glared at Xu Errong and said angrily, "This is not allowed, that is not allowed, what does the academy want?!"
This sudden anger completely stunned Xu Errong. He thought boredly: Oh my, I didn’t expect that my junior sister has such a bad temper and is so brave to challenge authority. It seems that the days to come will not be boring, but... I wonder what the master will do?
Xu Errong raised an eyebrow as he looked at the outburst An Ran, thinking of his crazy and unreasonable master, and then thinking of his junior sister. He didn't know why she had won the master's favor. Even before she started formal school, the love for her was obvious. But... he didn't know what his master would do if he saw his junior sister like this?
Uh... forget it. If Master knew that Junior Sister got mad at him, it would be like a volcano erupting! He couldn't bear Master's wrath. Saving his life was the most important thing...
After figuring this out, Xu Errong stopped worrying and volunteered to teach An Ran how to grow medicinal herbs: "Junior Sister Yunxi, I will teach you how to grow medicinal herbs... Don't worry, I won't let you fail to keep them alive."
An Ran looked up, looking at Xu Errong with some doubts, and said, "Brother, what if I can't support him?"
...I haven't even started raising them yet, and you're already saying you can't keep them alive in such a dejected way. Xu Errong looked at An Ran speechlessly, and found that An Ran had a serious expression on her face, not joking at all, as if she was sure she couldn't keep these herbs alive. He couldn't help but feel puzzled:
As long as one is a wood magician, no matter what, it is definitely very convenient to grow these medicinal herbs. Why is Junior Sister Yunxi so sure that she can't support them by herself?
"Brother, what if I can't support myself? Can you help me with the supplements?" Seeing Xu Errong remained silent for a long time, An Ran used her trump card, blinking her big watery eyes and speaking in a cute way.
Under An Ran's expectant eyes, Xu Errong found that he really couldn't bear to let his junior sister down. Although he knew that agreeing would be equivalent to selling himself out, he still gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and decisively sold himself out!
"Okay! If you can't keep it alive, I'll give you supplements and help you plant!"
