"Wow, I've seen this kind of grass before!" Zhao Erya exclaimed excitedly when she turned to the third page. "Isn't this dog nose grass? It's on the low slope over the valley. There are at least a dozen of them. I've really seen them before!"
Su Luo followed Zhao Erya's gaze and found that it was a blood-clotting herb used to treat internal injuries. So it's called Dog Nose Grass here?
"Oh! Isn't this the Fire Cloud Flower?" Zhao Daya also exclaimed.
Zhao Erya is about ten years old, and Zhao Daya is four years older than Erya, but because she has not had enough to eat all year round, she looks only about eleven or twelve years old.
Su Luo followed Zhao Daya's gaze and her eyes immediately lit up.
What they called the Fire Cloud was exactly the Blood Spirit Flower that Su Luo knew.
And this Blood Spirit Flower is the most suitable herb to treat Su Luo's leg injury.
"Have you really seen this...flower?" Su Luo asked Zhao Daya.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhao Daya nodded seriously. "This flower is not common. Once, when I almost fell off a cliff, I saw one on the cliff wall. When this flower bloomed, it looked like a burning fire cloud, so I called it the Fire Cloud Flower."
Su Luo: "...Is picking dangerous?"
Zhao Daya: "If you're careful, it won't be too dangerous. If you call on Third Uncle for help, it will be absolutely safe. Third Uncle is an expert in the forest, more agile than a monkey. Sister Yun, do you need this Fire Cloud Flower?"
Su Luo nodded seriously: "Yes."
Seeing them chatting animatedly, Mrs. Li couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "How can you children be so naive?"
"Ah?" Everyone looked at Li.
Li smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think that since our family is so poor, no one goes up the mountain to collect herbs? That's because the herbs we collect are very cheap. Only herbs that are well-processed can retain their medicinal properties and command a high price. But most of us don't know how to process herbs."
Li's words made Zhao Daya and Zhao Erya look disappointed.
Su Luo smiled and said, "But I can make it."
"ah?"
For a moment, all eyes were focused on Su Luo.
"How could you possibly..." Li had barely finished speaking when she realized she was wrong. How could she question others like that? She was so unkind.
Su Luo covered her lips and smiled: "Don't worry, I'll prepare some herbs for you when you bring them back."
"Okay, okay, Sister Yun, just wait at home, we'll go pick herbs."
Zhao Erya has an indescribable sense of trust in Su Luo.
"Come on, come on, sister, let's go together." Zhao Erya pulled Zhao Daya and ran out carrying the medicine basket.
Zhao Daya had a bitter smile on her face. She didn't say much from beginning to end. Besides the fact that she was not good at expressing herself, another reason was that she didn't really believe what Miss Yun said.
Preparing medicinal herbs? That requires a very skilled doctor.
She once heard Doctor Lu say that all the great doctors in Luocheng were called alchemists... Doctor Lu said that he was not even a junior alchemist yet, and could only be considered an alchemy apprentice?
At that time, Zhao Daya had given up hope on the path of alchemy.
Even a doctor like Dr. Lu, who has rich medical experience and superb medical skills, is just an apprentice in alchemy... How hopeless must the path of alchemy be?
Watching the two sisters running away quickly, Li's heart was filled with a bitter smile.
There is still a lot of work to do at home. As soon as Daya and Erya leave, my mother-in-law will start scolding me again.
