A spring breeze is about to blow overnight.
The next morning, before dawn, Tang Caiwei quietly left Chen Xiaobao's house with tired steps. Chen Xiaobao was in high spirits and cleaned up the battlefield.
Carrying the backpack, he prepared to go up the mountain to collect herbs.
Bai Xiaoli's leg is difficult to treat, so we have to prepare the medicinal materials before we can treat it.
After the rain in the empty mountains, autumn comes late.
After a night of heavy rain, the sky was clear and blue. From afar, one could see towering green mountains and picturesque forests, and the air was filled with bursts of fragrance.
Chen Xiaobao was in a good mood and was about to go up the mountain when he suddenly heard a call from behind him.
"Xiaobao!"
When Chen Xiaobao heard the voice, he turned around and saw the fashionably dressed Su Yulan appear behind him.
Su Yulan was wearing jeans and a tank top today. The tank top was heavy, revealing a hint of whiteness and deep cleavage. There is no doubt that Sister Gua has a great figure, it is absolutely amazing.
Wrapped under the sky blue jeans are two plump and straight long legs, which are probably longer than Liu Jinshan's life.
"Sister Yulan, you're going to the fields so early?"
Chen Xiaobao stared at Su Yulan and asked with a smile.
Su Yulan raised her sling shyly, rolled her eyes at Chen Xiaobao and said, "Aren't we going to pick some vegetables from the vegetable garden in the morning when there are fewer people around?"
It was because there were few people in the morning and Su Yulan felt hot that she didn't put on another piece of clothing over her camisole. Otherwise, she wouldn't take advantage of the idlers in the village.
Su Yulan was holding a cucumber and cowpea in her hand. These things could be used as vegetables and could also be fried. They were multifunctional vegetables. I don’t know how many lonely nights Su Yulan had spent with them.
"Sister Yulan, how is that little wolf cub... no, the little puppy?" Chen Xiaobao asked.
"Don't worry, Xiaobao, I'll take good care of it and give it meat every day!" Su Yulan said with a smile, "That thing loves meat and doesn't care about anything else!"
Of course, a real wolf cub likes to eat meat.
"Sister Yulan, I'm going up the mountain to pick some herbs. I'll leave first!" Chen Xiaobao chatted with Su Yulan for a few more sentences. He had just tasted the sweetness of a woman last night, and he was a little unable to walk when he met Su Yulan, this melon-sister.
Su Yulan's figure is even more sexy than Tang Caiwei's, the kind that cannot be controlled with one hand.
But he still had to go up the mountain to collect herbs, so he could only say goodbye to Su Yulan reluctantly.
"Oh, Xiaobao, wait a minute. I have a cousin from my mother's side. She's also a college student. She's studying at a junior college outside. She's about to graduate, and her family doesn't want her to marry far away. She's looking for a partner. Tomorrow I'll ask her to come over for a blind date with you and see if you're compatible!"
Just as she was about to leave, Su Yulan spoke again.
"Sister Yulan, how can a college student like me? Forget it, I'm leaving first!" Chen Xiaobao waved his hands, smiled at himself, and walked towards Daqingshan.
"Xiaobao, you are also a college student!"
Su Yulan shouted at Chen Xiaobao's back, but when she saw that Chen Xiaobao didn't turn back, she sighed with regret.
Chen Xiaobao had attended a 985 key university before, and her academic qualifications were much higher than her cousin's. To be honest, a junior college student could not be considered a college student.
Unfortunately, Chen Xiaobao became stupid halfway through his studies and was sent back without even a diploma.
Su Yulan shook her head and left with the basket of vegetables.
Chen Xiaobao carried the medicine basket up the mountain and walked for several miles, stopping and starting along the way. He selected a lot of good medicinal materials, including Panax notoginseng, Rehmannia glutinosa, Pueraria lobata, licorice, and Dendrobium officinale.
This stuff is purely wild, never sprayed with pesticides or chemical fertilizers, and the efficacy is very authentic.
These days the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine has become less effective, and ginseng can even be eaten as radish. In fact, it's all due to problems with pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Ginseng only takes two years to grow, so how much medicinal properties can it have?
The medicinal effect of artificially cultivated Dendrobium officinale is not even one-tenth of that of the wild one.
You said that if this thing is used as medicine, how good can the effect of the finished medicine be?
The medicinal herbs sold in herbal medicine stores now include the more expensive ones and some wild ones, such as wild ginseng and wild Dendrobium officinale. The ones sold in cheaper pharmacies are all artificially cultivated.
The medicinal properties of artificially grown herbs are not strong enough. In order to cure Bai Xiaoli's illness, Chen Xiaobao can only go up the mountain to collect herbs himself.
"Okay, that's about it. Next we need to find the medicine!"
Chen Xiaobao walked for an hour or two, dug up a lot of medicinal herbs, and encountered a lot of snakes, both poisonous and non-poisonous, but these snakes were not what he was looking for.
Chen Xiaobao wanted to find a local venomous snake called Tubudai to use as a medicine inducer. This thing is actually a kind of pit viper, which is extremely poisonous. The five-step snake is also a pit viper, and the toxicity of the two is similar.
Basically, if you get bitten and don't get treated in time, you're doomed.
“Found it!”
Chen Xiaobao searched for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He found a cloth bag hidden under a dead leaf. When he approached, the snake made a hissing sound from its mouth.
It has earthy yellow skin, a triangular snake head, and exudes an aura that says "keep away from strangers."
Chen Xiaobao took two steps closer, and the earthen cloth bag pounced forward like lightning. Its two fangs flashed cold light and bit towards him fiercely.
Chen Xiaobao immediately stepped back to avoid the attack of the earthen bag.
"This thing is really fast!"
Chen Xiaobao didn't dare to be careless and teased the cloth bag a few more times. The cloth bag seemed to find that he was not easy to mess with, so it slowly shrank its body, and buried its triangular head in the dead leaves, trying to escape.
“Swish!”
Chen Xiaobao took two steps forward and made a lightning-fast move, grabbing the cloth bag by the tail and lifting it up. The cloth bag arched its body and tried to turn back and bite him.
“Crackle!”
Chen Xiaobao grabbed the snake's tail and shook it hard. A slight sound of vertebrae dislocation was heard, and the cloth bag suddenly collapsed. All the vertebrae in the body were dislocated by Chen Xiaobao's shaking.
“Done!”
Chen Xiaobao grabbed the snake's head, pulled out its fangs, threw the limp cloth bag into his backpack, and turned to go down the mountain.
Chen Xiaobao grew up in the mountains and caught many snakes. He knew that if he grabbed the tail of a snake and mastered the technique and shook it hard, he could paralyze it.
Many teenagers in the village know this trick.
"The medicinal materials are almost ready, with only one main ingredient left!" Chen Xiaobao went down the mountain carrying a basket on his back. Now the medicinal materials for making medicine are almost ready, and the only main ingredient left is jade.
The medicine Chen Xiaobao wants to make requires jade powder as medicine.
Jade is not cheap. Sister Bai Xiaotao's family doesn't have the money to buy jade, so Chen Xiaobao has to pay for it himself. However, he just got 500,000 yuan from Liu Jinshan, which should be enough to buy a piece of good quality jade.
Chen Xiaobao had just come down the mountain and returned to the village. When he walked to the threshing ground at the back of the village, he saw many chattering old ladies and young wives in the village sitting together and chatting.
These people are the intelligence chiefs of the village. If the chicken of the east family is missing, the wife of the west family has run away, or the old man of another family is having an affair, they can tell you everything with detail.
"Have you heard that Li Dajiang is getting married? Do you know who he is marrying? He is marrying Li Zhuang's wife, Luo Xiaoyan!"
