I can record wonders

Chapter 76 Cold grass seedlings, two medicinal materials

Medicine garden, thatched cottage.

It was still as deserted as last time.

As soon as Fu Ning entered, some disciples recognized him. After all, not many people could find rare medicinal materials like 'Mist Grass' when they first entered.

"Junior brother, I haven't been here for a while."

Zhou Cheng is a disciple of Uncle Danxin. He has been in the thatched cottage since the beginning and is very familiar with how to deal with people.

"Cough cough cough~"

"Senior brother, please forgive me. I've been busy practicing recently and I really rarely go out."

After the two exchanged greetings for a while, Fu Ning directly stated his intention to come, and then handed Zhou Cheng the names of the eight medicinal herbs that he had transcribed in advance.

When Zhou Cheng heard that he was looking for medicinal materials, he immediately smiled and said: "It turns out that I am looking for medicine, so junior brother, I must have come to the right place."

"Half of the South China Sea, when it comes to refining medicine, it has to be our Danshancao..."

As he took the tissue paper, he glanced over and saw that he had never heard of any of the eight medicinal materials. He then realized that it was too early for him to talk big today.

For a moment, he was holding the writing paper in his hand, and his face was full of embarrassment.

After hesitating for a moment, he hurriedly paced and passed the papyrus to several senior brothers next to him for identification.

But after asking five people in succession, all five of them turned into frowns.

"Ahem, junior brother, the medicinal herbs you are looking for are indeed... indeed rare."

"Junior brother, why don't you just wait a moment, I'll be back as soon as I go."

Fu Ning nodded slightly and thought to himself: It's time to move reinforcements.

"Then thank you brother."

After about a cup of tea, senior brother Zhou Cheng returned to the hall and immediately dragged Fu Ning away.

Quickly passed through the hall and came to the small courtyard behind the thatched cottage.

The outer wall of the small courtyard is mottled, with moss growing on the corners. The two wooden doors are open, and it seems that they have not been closed for a long time.

Entering the yard from the gate, except for a path in the middle, everything is covered with weeds on both sides, and it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.

"Master, he said, 'Good medicine is born'. The terrain of this courtyard is special, and elixirs will surely grow in the future."

"So the yard looks a bit messy, junior brother, don't be offended."

Fu Ning nodded slightly: "Senior brother, you're welcome. It's natural to have a great path. Senior uncle, he is the wisest man."

Before he finished speaking, Uncle Danxin's voice came from a room directly opposite the courtyard: "Good boy, you understand the principle of 'natural creation', come in."

Fu Ning was stunned for a moment, and after nodding his thanks to Zhou Cheng, he opened the door and went in.

With a 'squeak' sound.

The door of the room opened, and the strong smell of alcohol burst out from inside.

The room is next to the courtyard, and the sun shines through the windows.

The interior is very elegantly decorated.

Entering from the door, you are faced with three ancient shelves, which are filled with bonsai medicinal materials.

Passing through the ancient shelf, Fu Ning's first sight was Master Danxin who was watering the flowers.

He still had wild hair, like an exploding lion's head, and he held a pot in his hand. Sometimes he would pour it over, and he would take a sip himself. This is where the strong smell of alcohol came from.

Fu Ning instantly remembered that there seemed to be several precious medicinal materials that really needed to be poured with wine.

"Disciple Fu Ning, I have met my uncle."

"No gift, no gift~"

Uncle Danxin put down the wine bottle and immediately raised his head with a smile on his face.

Even though Fu Ning had only just gone up the mountain, he had already indirectly helped Yaoyuan twice.

The first time because he couldn't refine the 'Breaking Realm Pill', Master Bai Lianjing directly took away the signboard of the medicine garden. It was Danshan's face. In the end, it was Fu Ning who found the 'Mist Grass' and took the signboard back.

After the second herbicide garden theft, the rewards for the herb farmers were doubled, but no one was willing to accept them. Fu Ning was the first to take over the task, which was a good start.

Therefore, Uncle Danxin had a very good impression of Fu Ning. When he heard that the eight medicinal materials on the papyrus paper were from him, he immediately became interested.Only then did Zhou Cheng invite people to the backyard.

Uncle Danxin picked up the straw paper on the table again and scanned the medicinal materials with his eyes.

"Dragon tree, white flower grass, quiet branch, cold jade flower, cold spring algae, ice crystal fruit, small winter vine, edelweiss."

There are eight kinds of medicinal herbs. Every time he looks at one of them, Uncle Danxin's brows will furrow.

"It's no wonder your senior brothers don't know each other."

"Nephew, the medicinal materials you are looking for are so rare."

Fu Ning's heart sank when he heard this: It's really hard to gather them all.

Uncle Danxin put down the tissue paper in his hand and thought for a moment: "If I guessed correctly, these eight kinds of medicinal herbs should all be seedlings that can only grow in cold areas."

"Most of the medicinal properties are cold and cooling. They can be replaced by other medicinal materials. I'm afraid they are rare in our South China Sea."

The herbs used in the 24 Qi Pills correspond to the 24 solar terms.

The eight missing herbs correspond to the eight coldest solar terms.

The South China Sea has summer all year round and rarely gets cold.

Therefore, these cold medicinal materials are difficult to find in the South China Sea.

Only a master of alchemy like Uncle Danxin could barely recognize him.

Alternative?

Fu Ning shook his head in his heart. After all, this was the strategy to open up Jing Palace.

What he needs is not the medicinal properties, but the corresponding 24 Qi in these medicinal materials.

Therefore, it certainly cannot be replaced simply by its medicinal properties.

"Uncle, I wonder where to find these medicinal materials?"

Upon hearing this, Master Danxin muttered: "Among these eight kinds of medicinal materials, there are two in the thatched cottage: 'Baihuacao' and 'Qingjingzhi'."

"As for the rest, even I have only heard of it."

"If my nephew wants to look for it, I'm afraid it will take some effort."

Fu Ning's eyes narrowed slightly: Either way, it's better than nothing.

"Uncle, I don't know about 'Baihuacao' and 'Qingjingzhi'... how can I exchange them?"

The thatched cottage was originally the medicinal material storehouse of Danshan Mountain, where disciples could redeem medicinal pills and medicinal materials through tasks.

Fu Ning had exchanged a lot of medicinal materials for refining 'Cold Ice Dew' here before.

When Uncle Danxin heard this, his face showed a thoughtful look, but after a few breaths, he pursed his lips and said, "Exchange~ It's not impossible."

"These two medicinal materials are both great cold medicines, and my nephew is no outsider. As long as he can find medicinal materials with the same medicinal properties, it will be fine."

"Medicinal materials with the same medicinal properties?"

Fu Ning frowned and said, "Master, please give me some advice."

Danxin suddenly changed the subject when he heard this: "Master nephew, I heard that you have some connection with Baishan?"

Hearing this, Fu Ning was stunned for a moment, and raised his head just in time to see the cunning hidden in Master Danxin's eyes.

Only then did he realize that Uncle Danxin had probably been thinking about him from the moment he entered the thatched cottage.

"Cough cough cough~"

"If we talk about origins, this disciple was rescued by Master Baiyun Jing before he went to the island."

"The origin is not deep."

Danxin pointed at Fu Ning and said with a 'hehe' smile: "Hide your kid with me."

"Senior Brother Baiyun even gave you his own Suyun before he went into seclusion. How dare you say that the relationship is not deep."

"Actually, if you want to change to 'White Flower Grass' and 'Qing Jingzhi', it's not difficult."

“There are alternative materials in the White Mountains.”
