Chapter 35 Picking Herbs in the Deep Mountains
Since he was determined to pay attention to collecting herbs and prescriptions, Liu Xiu immediately started to act.
The basket is indispensable for collecting herbs. It can hold more medicinal materials while liberating your hands. It is an indispensable tool.
Liu Xiu knew how to weave a basket on the backpack. He once remembered that when he was a child, he lived in the countryside. For a while, his father relied on weaving a basket to sell in the town to maintain his household income. At that time, a basket could be sold for three or five yuan. Liu Xiu's father acted very quickly and could weave four or five yuan a day, so he could support a home for a while.
When Liu's father was knitting a basket when he was a child, Liu Xiu was watching the whole process. He knew the whole process clearly. In addition, he now has a good memory and many details are clearly presented to his mind.
After picking up a hatchet, Liu Xiu cut an old bamboo and broke the bamboo strips. Because he had the experience of building a bamboo building, a hatchet was played well in Liu Xiu's hands. With the control of details, in less than half an hour, an old bamboo turned into hundreds of uniform bamboo strips.
Then, in Liu Xiu's smart hands, the bamboo strips became a well-shaped backpack in just one hour. It would not be difficult to weave this thing. If you don't know, you can only watch a bunch of bamboo strips.
"After all, it's not professional, far worse than the backpack woven by my father..." Liu Xiu shook his head and said, looking at the finished backpack.
When Liu Xiu thought of his father, he couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in his heart. When he came to this world alone, he was not so open-minded, but often he didn't let himself think about the past.
Putting aside his thoughts and letting the next herb collection fill my mind. Liu Xiu cut two pieces of bear skin with a knife as the strap for the backpack, and then set off with a hatchet and a hoe on his backpack.
The prescriptions I got from the old Taoist priest were all well-known medicinal materials, such as ginseng, angelica, Polygonatum, Ganoderma lucidum, deer antler, Polygonatum, Gastrodia elata, wolfberry,...
Although the medicinal materials on the prescription are well known to people, on the earth, if some medicinal materials are linked to the two words "wild and year", it is not something that ordinary people can play with. Such as ginseng, Angelica, Polygonum multiflorum and other medicines are very valuable. Fortunately, Liu Xiu was not short of money when he needed the prescription.
To put it bluntly, almost all the medicinal materials in the prescription are things that nourish qi and blood. If it is appropriate, ordinary people will only benefit but not harm the body if they eat it.
At that time, Liu Xiu spent most of his social activities every month because of business affairs, and his health was a little deficient. He relied on prescriptions and health care to reach the point where he was so vigorous in just a few years.
There is no way, you can’t help but be in the environment at that time, and you can’t do anything if you don’t go to socializing business.
Liu Xiu has learned about each medicinal material in detail, and he knows the appearance and growth environment. It is not difficult to collect all medicinal materials in this unique environment.
He can already rule out the deer antler among them. A group of sika deer on the plain is ready-made. This time, I went out to find other medicinal materials.
Unlike the medicinal materials he used to treat high fever in Lausanne, the growth environment he needed for the medicinal materials was a little more harsh, but it was not a big problem.
Now, Liu Xiu had gained something less than five minutes after going out, and he waved his hoe and started digging the ground.
What he is digging is a plant of Polygonatum. If it is Polygonatum, most people may not be familiar with it. So many people should know his other name, tiger ginger, lily plant, and common things in ordinary mountains and fields.
After a few hoes, I quickly got a piece of Polygonatum.
"This place is really unique, too, after all, almost no one has stepped on it." Liu Xiu, who weighed about the weight of the penis in his hand, sighed in his heart.
Put it in the backpack and continue to look for other medicinal materials.
He could not only have one medicine, and each medicinal material would be better until he could pile up his physical fitness to the point of "peaceful living" with the giant python in the lake.
Not long after walking, Liu Xiu gained something again, but this time it was not a medicinal material for health prescriptions, but a precious plant in this world was discovered.
Silver thread grass, a precious thing that can be worthy of the taxes of the entire Linbian Village, may be worth much more than this.
At this time, the silver thread grass that appeared in front of Liu Xiu was not a single plant, but a small piece, at least twenty, growing quite densely, especially the silver texture on the grass leaves, which was more conspicuous than the one in Lausanne.
Liu Xiu naturally would not let go of this kind of thing. Although he didn't know its specific effect, it did not prevent him from collecting it first.
There are a total of twenty-five silver thread grasses, which do not take up space in the backpack.
"Lausanne and others paid nearly twenty lives for a silver thread grass, and this thing is actually no different from 'weed'. This is really..."
Shaking his head, Liu Xiu didn't know how to describe his mood.
This is what happens in the world. Many things are worthy of life in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of some people, they are just ordinary things.
After walking and stopping, Liu Xiu moved directly towards the forest. After all, some medicinal materials like to grow in dark and humid environments.
However, in just a few thousand meters, Liu Xiu had to return to the bamboo building. There was no way, his back basket was filled. Among them, he found six kinds of medicinal materials in the prescription: Polygonatum, ginseng, Polygonatum Polygonatum, Angelica sinensis, and Gastrodia elata...
Especially the ginseng in it, Liu Xiu seriously suspected that this thing was just a big radish. He picked thirteen trees at a distance, and one of them could clearly see the human shape. The roots were densely packed and it was obvious that it was in the year. However, Liu Xiu was not a professional ginseng farmer after all, and he could not tell the exact year.
"A natural treasure..."
Liu Xiu had to sigh again about the uniqueness of this place. He didn't know whether it was because of the natural environment of this world that created these precious medicinal materials or because no one set foot on it. In short, it was a good thing for him.
Putting a basket of medicinal materials on the back, Liu Xiu set out again, and changed the route a little this time, and the harvest was not much the same as before, but when he arrived at the edge of the forest, he also packed most of the backpack.
Then, he did not hesitate to pierce the dense primeval forest.
Walking into the forest, the dark and humid environment came to the face. The thick trees were lush and lush branches and leaves almost covered the sky, and even the sunlight could rarely be shined.
In such an environment, Liu Xiu had to be alert. Ordinary animals are fine, but the poisonous insects hidden in dark corners are fatal. If they are bitten, they will be very excited. Although they are super strong in their physical condition, Liu Xiu cannot guarantee whether he can withstand it if he is bitten by the poisonous insect.
Not long after walking in the forest, Liu Xiu suddenly looked entangled.
Looking around, there were too many good things. He didn't pay attention to the surroundings in order to survive in the dense forest. Now, after a little look, it was almost all treasures.
Let’s not talk about precious woods like rosewood, golden nanmu, there are many mountain delicacies like monkey head mushroom, black fungus, and bigfoot mushroom.
Repeatedly reminding himself that he was here to collect herbs, Liu Xiu forced himself to continue his journey by picking mushrooms, but he thought in his heart that his recipe was about to enrich again.
Under a tree, Liu Xiu put a Ganoderma lucidum the size of a bowl in his back basket, and then used the hatchet in his hand to slap a black spider of fist that was about to sneak attack him. He looked forward with his eyes thinking for a moment.
At this time, he had already penetrated the dense forest for more than 5,000 meters. He thought that he might have exceeded the shock range of the giant python in the lake. He looked ahead and became alert.
In front of him, a huge rock was horizontal and covered with moss, but Liu Xiu's gaze was mainly focused on a plant growing under the huge rock.
It was a ginseng with almost no weeds around it, which was particularly conspicuous.
If it were before, Liu Xiu might have been eager to go over to collect it, but at this time he was a little hesitant, and the surroundings were too quiet, which seemed very unusual.
After thinking for a while, Liu Xiu picked up a stone and smashed it towards the huge rock.
With a muffled bang appearing in the forest, Liu Xiu, who was looking at the other side, couldn't help but hop off his eyelids.
Just as the stone hit the huge rock, a centipede nearly two meters long crawled out in the cracks of the rock beside the ginseng, and her body was slightly winding to protect the ginseng, and her head was raised and shaking constantly at the half-foot-long tentacle on Liu Xiu's head.
When Liu Xiu saw the centipede, he was still scared. Fortunately, he didn't go over rashly. If he was bitten, would that be fine?
The two-meter-long centipede is dark all over, with a bit of a metallic cold texture, but its head is bright red, which makes people feel panicked at a glance.
To be honest, this is the first time Liu Xiu has seen such a big centipede. He never thought that there would be such a big centipede in the world. If it was used to soak in wine...
Ginseng, centipede guarding...
Seeing such a picture, Liu Xiu couldn't help but have an idea in his mind. The ginseng tree is definitely different from what he collected before. It is rumored that the treasures of heaven and earth are often protected by strange beasts, but isn't it the picture in front of him?
Just as Liu Xiu was thinking in his heart, his heart slightly jumped.
However, the centipede actually attacked him on the initiative. Her body bounced on the huge rock and quickly crossed more than ten meters to attack Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu clearly saw that when the centipede leveraged the force on the stone, it actually left a shallow trace. It can be seen that its bullet was not only strong but also had a strong body.
Without allowing Liu Xiu to think so much, the big centipede has appeared in front of Liu Xiu.
Although the centipede is fast, Liu Xiu is not a vegetarian now. Without hesitation, he raised the hatchet in his hand and thought about the centipede's head and slashed it down.
Because he was a little nervous, Liu Xiu did not notice it. At this time, a purple light seemed to flash in his eyes, just like the scene when he practiced health care in the morning facing the sun. When purple light flashed in his eyes, the trajectory of the centipede attack seemed to be much full.
When... click...
However, in an instant, the hatchet in Liu Xiu's hand slashed on the centipede's head. With the slight sound of golden clashing, the centipede was chopped backwards by Liu Xiu, and his head was also broken. He struggled on the ground and gradually stopped moving.
"this……"
Looking at a small gap in the hatchet and looking at the centipede that stopped struggling, Liu Xiu was in a complicated mood for a moment.
