Xu Zhiyi only told Chu Jueming about growing medicinal herbs in the mountains, apart from the Pei Yan trio who followed her to cultivate the land in the mountains.
Basically, Chu Jueming goes to the mountain to collect herbs with Xu Zhiyi.
After all, it is dangerous in the deep mountains, so Miao Feng repeatedly reminded Chu Jueming not to go up the mountain alone to collect herbs.
When Xu Zhiyi followed her master, she developed new areas all over the mountains and plains.
If she comes across a rare and precious herb, she will keep one and keep some seeds for later growth.
Chu Jueming followed Xu Zhiyi up the mountain to collect herbs, but his physical strength was completely inferior to Xu Zhiyi's.
However, no matter how old a man is, he always has all kinds of strange competitive spirit.
Even though he couldn't keep up with Xu Zhiyi's pace, Chu Jueming didn't complain of being tired.
When the two of them first went up the mountain to collect herbs, Xu Zhiyi ran around without stopping at all. Chu Jueming saw that the little girl Xu Zhiyi didn't look tired at all, and he felt a little embarrassed to rest.
Later, I realized that Xu Zhiyi was not only extremely strong, but also had physical strength that ordinary people could not keep up with.
After all, Xu Zhiyi became his apprentice, and it was natural for a master to order his apprentice around.
Whenever you feel tired, just stop and take a rest.
When he came across herbs growing on a steep cliff, he would call Xu Zhiyi to go and pick them.
Of course Xu Zhiyi was not afraid. He didn't even bring a rope. He just pulled down the vines growing on the cliff and was very agile.
Cliffs and steep slopes are no problem.
Seeing that Xu Zhiyi was collecting herbs smoothly, Chu Jueming secretly thought that he should not follow him next time, as he delayed Xu Zhiyi's progress in collecting herbs.
If Xu Zhiyi were alone, he might have picked a lot.
"Master, come here quickly!" Xu Zhiyi shouted not far away from Chu Jueming.
Chu Jueming was digging herbs under a tree.
Seeing Xu Zhiyi calling him, he put the herbs in his hand into the backpack and walked over.
"Ginseng!" Chu Jueming's eyes lit up.
"Don't move, let me dig." Chu Jueming stopped Xu Zhiyi from moving.
Xu Zhiyi didn't mind, so he stood aside and watched Chu Jueming carefully use a small hoe to shovel the weeds next to him.
I saw him digging the soil on the surface of the ginseng with a hoe, and doing this many times. While digging, he used his hands to dig up the broken soil.
Chu Jueming was so careful that he didn't even break the ginseng roots. He took it out and examined it over and over again.
"This ginseng is probably about three or four hundred years old. Zhiyi, leave the ginseng here with me. I'll give it to you after I've processed it."
Chu Jueming was fully focused on the ginseng he was looking for today.
"Master, what you dug belongs to you, don't give it to me." Xu Zhiyi said nonchalantly.
Chu Jueming thought that Xu Zhiyi didn't know the value of this three or four hundred year old ginseng, so he casually said he would give it to someone else.
"You know, this thing is very expensive, even on the black market, few people can buy it."
Even in the deep mountains, Chu Jueming subconsciously lowered his voice when talking about the black market.
"You, my disciple, don't know the value of things." Chu Jueming gritted his teeth.
Who can blame this person for being so lucky? Some people can't find ginseng of such good quality even if they search the entire mountain.
"Master, I know. It's just that Master's wife is not in good health. If you can take care of it, you can use this ginseng to nourish Master's wife's body."
Chu Jueming paused, his expression complicated and difficult to understand.
"You actually think so."
"Yes, you are my master. Respecting your master's wife is the same as respecting you." Xu Zhiyi said with a smile.
Although this ginseng is rare, she has special abilities, so it is still easy to obtain ginseng that is hundreds of years old.
Oh yes, she almost forgot that Fu Huaijin had asked her to help find ginseng in the mountains, and she actually found one.
But later on she was of no use to her and it was not safe to keep her at the educated youth camp, so she simply increased her supernatural powers and collected the ginseng seeds.
They are still in the wooden house and in bags containing various seeds.
"Zhiyi, this is too valuable, you..." There was a hint of confusion in Chu Jueming's eyes. Indeed, if Ah Feng had this thing, her health would be much better.
He knew the value of it, but he still couldn't accept it with peace of mind.
He is Xu Zhiyi's master. Although it was Xu Zhiyi who took the initiative to ask to be his disciple, Chu Jueming was also thinking that someone could help them so that Ah Feng would not have to work so hard.
I accepted this apprentice so that they could have a better life in the village.
This is indeed the case.
Xu Zhiyi really helped them a lot.
He often sent them food, and went hunting in the mountains every now and then, and the game he hunted was also sent to them.
Whenever there is any delicious food, he will also send it to me.
Afraid that they would catch a cold, we prepared warm cotton clothes for them.
He even persuaded the village chief to open a clinic in the village so that he could treat the villagers.
Not only did his work become easier, but the villagers also had more respect for them.
Chu Jueming felt guilty because he had only taught some medical skills, but Xu Zhiyi treated him and his wife sincerely.
He was so lucky to have such a disciple when he was in such a low point.
"Master, please don't cry. It hurts me when my Ah Yan cries, but I won't feel bad when you cry. What if, one day, I let something slip and Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang will laugh at you?"
Xu Zhiyi was joking, she couldn't accept such sensationalism.
He is indeed a master at ruining the atmosphere.
Chu Jueming: “…”
My emotions are interrupted and I can no longer be moved.
"Zhi Yi, I would like to thank you on behalf of your master's wife." Chu Jueming was rarely sentimental.
Seeing that Xu Zhiyi was serious, he stopped refusing.
He carefully placed the ginseng in the backpack and turned the herbs in the basket over to cover it, to avoid being seen by villagers after he went down the mountain, which would cause trouble.
After all, even the most ignorant villagers know that ginseng is not cheap.
Money moves people’s hearts, so it’s better to have less trouble than more.
Each of them carried a basket of herbs on their backs, which Pei Yan had helped Xu Zhiyi make. It was much smaller than an ordinary basket and was perfect for picking herbs.
The backpack and the small hoe were both made by Pei Yan, and Xu Zhiyi also gave one to Chu Jueming.
After the two men came down the mountain, they met some villagers in the village, and some of them greeted Chu Jueming.
"Doctor Chu, are you out collecting herbs again?"
"Xu Zhiqing is here too. He's collected so much."
Chu Jueming nodded in response, and from time to time he asked about the villagers' physical condition and how they felt after taking the medicine.
He completely treated these villagers as his own patients. He remembered clearly the causes of the illnesses of many of them he had talked to and those who had been to the health center.
Most of the villagers in Xiangyang Village are simple and kind. Those who have seen Chu Jueming for treatment and have been cured are all grateful to him.
To thank him, I gave him some vegetables and eggs that I grew myself. It’s always a thoughtful gesture.
Chu Jueming originally didn't want to accept it, so they put it down and ran away.
Chu Jueming had no choice but to accept it.
