This conversation left Ye Ying very confused; she simply couldn't understand what secrets this senior knew.
Why do I feel like an outsider right now?
She was completely baffled.
She didn't know why the older man fell silent after asking them if it was their first time visiting this place.
Moreover, Ye Ying was completely bewildered by the old man's knowing gaze.
Ye Ying couldn't figure it out; she was completely baffled!
However, the old herbalist was completely unaware of Ye Ying's inner turmoil and remained fully focused on his work.
After quietly tidying up the full basket of herbs, he immediately began tidying up the next bamboo basket without pausing for a moment.
With practiced skill and deft efficiency, he neatly arranged the different types and properties of herbs, classifying them in an orderly fashion. The entire process was well-organized, displaying a refined and otherworldly demeanor.
Amidst the busy tidying up, the old man didn't forget to gently remind, or rather, warn, Ye Ying: "Every herb here has unique medicinal properties and uses, but it also carries corresponding risks. If you rashly pick and use it without fully understanding its properties, it may lead to unforeseen disasters."
The herbalist's words mean that "each herb here has unique effects and uses, but also comes with corresponding dangers. If you don't understand their properties and blindly pick and use them, it is very likely to cause unpredictable and disastrous consequences."
Therefore, before venturing into this vast and mysterious forest to collect medicinal herbs, one must plan meticulously and make comprehensive and detailed preparations.
Only in this way can we ensure that nothing goes wrong and avoid unnecessary trouble or even danger.
"Oh, okay...okay." Ye Ying held her breath and listened intently, not daring to slack off in the slightest, for fear of missing even the slightest bit of important information.
In the blink of an eye, after listening to the story, Ye Ying couldn't contain her excitement and immediately began to help the herbalist sort through the fifth basket of herbs.
The old man silently observed Ye Ying carefully, secretly surprised.
He was surprised to find that the young woman in front of him had only listened to his explanation and demonstration once, yet she was able to easily memorize all the complicated and tedious steps and key points.
Moreover, Ye Ying displayed astonishing talent and skill in classifying and organizing the herbs—her movements were clean, efficient, and as natural and fluid as flowing water.
The identification and judgment of each herb were accurate, and the proportions were just right, without the slightest error...
All of this filled the old man with sincere admiration and appreciation.
"Amazing! Absolutely outstanding!" the old man murmured involuntarily, nodding repeatedly in approval.
"This girl is truly gifted and has great potential. Given time, she will surely achieve great things!"
After all, people with such extraordinary talent and diligence are extremely rare, and my efforts to explain this to them have finally paid off!
"This vast and boundless primeval forest is home to a dazzling array of exotic flowers and herbs... But wait, these herbs are masterpieces of nature, each one brimming with vitality and tenacious life force."
