Chapter 132 Picking medicine

After the large army returned to the town, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. After nearly three hours of travel, everyone was already hungry, so they all got home. Everyone had some food. Xiao Yu's parents prepared some snacks in the kitchen to worship the Kitchen King, and then went back to their room to rest.

Xiao Yu sat on the bed but did not go to bed. Instead, he took out the money he earned today and counted it several times before calling out the two little ghosts.

Both kids were wearing new clothes, but the clothes were given by the mayor's wife. Although they looked a little big, they could still wear them. The kid in the new clothes jumped up and down the room happily, and came to Xiao Yu from time to time to show off.

"Brother Yu, that aunt is so generous. If I had known that I would have to ask for a few more sets, we could have worn them in a different way."

"Yes, I gave you ten dollars, so much, I have no place to pretend."

Xiao Yu really doesn't know what this underworld currency is used for, but he heard his grandfather say that the underworld is like the living, and ghosts also need to eat, drink, defecate, and buy clothes, incense, candles, so they all have to spend money. Moreover, some Taoist people who go to the Yin and Yang worlds specialize in selling incense in the Yin and Yang realms, and can make a lot of money a year.

"You have new clothes. The two sets I bought are burning for you during the Chinese New Year. You practice well and tell me what you need. But you must not go out to scare people, nor can you run around. Once you are caught by other evil people, I can't save you."

"I got it, we won't go out..."

Xiao Yu asked for a painting from Taoist Bai before. There were two little boys on it. Someone begged a child in the temple. Xiao Yu happened to take it back and put it on the wall to serve as a place for the two little ghosts to settle down, so that they don’t have to be carried with them every day, and they need to be summoned back and forth.

The two little ghosts played for a while and then returned to the wall. The two naked children on the painting also turned into a little boy wearing blue and green clothes. Fortunately, the painting Xiao Yutiao was hidden, otherwise Xiao Qiang would have been scared to death.

Next, Xiao Yu started meditating. Today, his strength suddenly increased, which made Xiao Yu a little puzzled. He just pushed it casually, how could he have such a lot of strength? In that environment, Xiao Yu didn't think much about it. Now that he thought about it carefully, it should be because of his recent meditation, otherwise he would not be able to find a better explanation.

"Just absorbing a little, it has such an effect. I wonder what it will turn into after sucking the spiritual energy into the body and leaving it behind. If you practice the Break the Wild Diagram, will you be more surprised?"

Xiao Yu muttered in his heart for a while, then sat cross-legged on the bed and began to meditate. After a few minutes, a trace of spiritual energy gathered again in his body, but it was very weak. However, as Xiao Yu continued to breathe, the spiritual energy slowly became thicker, and then under Xiao Yu's control, he wandered around the veins.

Time passed quickly, and Xiao Yu felt that he had just sat for a while, but when he opened his eyes, it was already the next morning. It was already bright outside, and the sound of Xiao Qiang coughing came from time to time.

"Dad smokes too much a day, it seems that he has to get some medicine for him."

Xiao Yu sat in the room for a while before turning over and getting out of bed, but he was stunned as soon as he got out of bed, because he felt that his body was much lighter than before, and he sat all night without any fatigue.

"Inheritance is indeed different. It always feels so good." Xiao Yu clenched his fists and said excitedly.

Breakfast in the north is relatively simple, and most of them are mainly steamed buns. So after drinking two big bowls of porridge, Xiao Yu carried two steamed buns, greeted his parents, and walked towards the mountains. Xiao Yu had been here countless times in the mountains, but in the past, he was either doing farm work or playing, but today, he was preparing to collect herbs.

Xiao Yu carried a trellis with a small hoe inside. This was a hoe for planting corn, which was the best for digging medicine. However, after Xiao Yu had just arrived at the village, Xiao Jie chased after him from behind.

"Xiao Yu, what are you doing?" Xiao Jie said in confusion.

"College herbs...why are you doing?"

"What am I not doing? I planned to get up and eat and sleep for a while. When I saw you coming out with a basket on your back, I would come and take a look! There is not a single grass in this winter, so where is there any medicine?"

Xiao Yu continued to walk forward, and said as he walked, "There is no grass, there will always be vines. I will look for vines, and some medicinal herbs only come out in winter, you just don't know."

"Okay, you can not only catch ghosts, but also recognize medicine. Let's go with you, and I will learn something, so I can make money in the future." Xiao Jie took the basket on Xiao Yu's back and said with a smile.

Xiao Yu also happened to be unaccompanied, and Xiao Jie followed someone and talked, so he didn't refuse. The two of them walked along the path like this, but the two of them were bare on both sides of Xiao Road, and there was really nothing. Even if there were, they would probably have been dug up by the villagers.

"How is it? I just said no, it's all about digging medicines in autumn. This is the first time I have seen digging medicines in winter," Xiao Jie said with a look around.

Xiao Yu ignored Xiao Jie and pulled the branches on the side of the road and walked towards the middle of the woods. However, the road was indeed difficult to walk, but fortunately the snow had melted and the ground was just a few dead leaves. Be careful, you can still walk.

"Xiao Yu, look, is this a medicinal material?" Xiao Jie shouted as soon as Xiao Yu took a few steps.

Xiao Yu looked in the direction Xiao Jie pointed and saw some thumb-sized black fruits hanging on a vine. This kind of fruit is a bit like sheep dung, with six or seven in a bunch of them, which looks bad. And when you smell it close, you will smell it pungent. However, although this fruit smells smelly, its roots are indeed a medicinal material.

"Black wind seeds can be used as medicine at the roots, diuresis, detoxification, and dehumidification, and it is not available to pregnant women and children."

This piece of information appeared in Xiao Yu's mind. Although it was not Xiao Yu's ideal medicinal material, he could not let it go when he saw it, so he immediately put down his backpack and carefully put the roots of the plant aside. This black wind sequel was a bit like the roots of ginseng. It was a main root system with many roots underneath, and they were all shallow medicinal materials. You only need to push apart some dead branches and leaves to bring up the medicinal materials.

After finding the first Chinese medicinal herb, Xiao Yu and the others were full of confidence and hurriedly continued to search. Next, the two found two medicinal herbs, one was Ganoderma lucidum and the other was Chicken Blood Vine.

Ganoderma lucidum is red all over, so it is easy to identify. Children in the mountains know it. In this forest, wherever there are trees, there is a possibility of Ganoderma lucidum growing. However, the Ganoderma lucidum found by Xiao Yu and others is very small, only the size of a wine glass, but finally there is a receipt.

Chicken Blood Vine is not easy to collect. They grow in a messy way, usually relying on cliff walls or surrounding plants to grow. Each vine is as thick as a finger. With one knife, red juice flows out of it, just like blood, so it is called chicken blood Vine.

With the receipt, Xiao Yu and the others were more energetic. The two sat under the tree and ate steamed buns, and then continued to search. At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yu's small back basket was filled with herbs, but these herbs were ordinary herbs and not valuable things.
