Ant Army

Chapter 12 Collecting Herbs ([-])

Looking at the dazzling red Ganoderma lucidum in front of him, Guo Yi couldn't bear to pick it. It was so beautiful, but in the end Guo Yi stretched out his hand and gently pulled out the fire Ganoderma lucidum from the dead branch.

At this moment, the villagers who watched this scene below exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh my god! That's a mature fire ganoderma, it can sell for at least ten gold coins."

"It's unbelievable that the fire ganoderma grows on a tree."

"I think the most incredible thing is how Guo Yi found this Ganoderma lucidum."

Whispering sounds kept ringing around, which was really shocking to everyone. Everyone has lived here for more than ten years, and they have been looking at this tree almost every day for more than ten years, but no one has noticed that there is fire ganoderma on it.

But Guo Yi found out after only one day.Their self-confidence in collecting medicine was a little hit.

Seeing this scene, Aunt Wang couldn't help curling her lips, "It should be good luck. There may be some reasons why I saw the fire ganoderma on it before! Otherwise, how could I know that there is a fire ganoderma on this tree?"

But even though she was belittling Guo Yi, she could still feel the deep shock from her voice. It was obvious that her inner thoughts were not as they were on the surface.

"That's right, it must be like this. I really don't know what kind of luck he has had to find him like this." A group of women beside her echoed.

Compared to these people's displeasure, Yiyi was much happier. She jumped up and down at this moment, her face was full of joy.Not to mention Yiyi, even Zirou beside her is unbelievable. She is also an expert in collecting herbs. She knows the properties of medicines and the growth environment well, but if you look for her, this strain She will never be able to find the fire ganoderma.

Yiyi looked at Guo Yi who was coming down from the tree with the fire ganoderma, and she ran over immediately.Yiyi said with a full face of admiration: "Brother, you are so powerful, you can find the elixir this way."

Guo Yi touched Yiyi's little head, and said in a low voice: "Did you forget that big brother can refine medicine? Of course he is good at collecting medicine!"

Yiyi nodded half-understood, and Zirou beside her heard Guo Yi's words, although she was still a little puzzled, she didn't ask any questions, after all, everyone has their own secrets in their hearts.

Guo Yi handed the fire ganoderma to Yiyi, and Yiyi carefully put it into the small medicine basket behind her, and then said happily: "Mom, look at the elixir we got!"

After picking the first elixir, the previous gloom seemed to be swept away, and Yiyi became lively again, laughing non-stop.

"Let's go! Let's go around the village first, maybe we can find other elixir." Guo Yi said.

Both of them nodded after hearing this. After this incident, Zi Rou also had a little confidence in Guo Yi's ability to continue to find medicinal materials. Of course, it was only a little confidence. After all, the places near the village did not know that the villagers had repeatedly found them. how many times.

Even if an elixir grows occasionally, it will be discovered and picked immediately.

A group of villagers watched Guo Yi and others leave. At this time, the contempt for Guo Yi in the eyes of the villagers has disappeared. Obviously, Guo Yi has proved his ability with facts.

These villagers are not fools, they don't believe that Guo Yi can find that Fire Ganoderma lucidum on the tree by mistake, because the place is too hidden.Presumably Guo Yi really has some way to find the elixir, otherwise he wouldn't dare to boast and take the matter of the Blue Wolf Bandit Group on himself.

At this time, these villagers were also very curious whether Guo Yi could continue to collect the elixir.

Out of the village, there is a dense forest. In such an environment, elixir grows best, and this is the interior of the Huoling Mountain Range, where there is plenty of aura. It is precisely because of these conditions that many elixir appear.

Now, because the Mozu scouting teams appear frequently, with the village as the center, the range of one kilometer is a warning range. The villagers form a patrol team. As soon as a Mozu approaches, they will immediately send a warning signal to the village and temporarily block the area. Mozu.

Therefore, within the range of this kilometer, it is still within the safe range. At the very least, even if you encounter the demons, you can get the help of the patrol team in time to retreat safely.

The three of them talked all the way and kept looking for the elixir. Of course, this so-called search, Guo Yi was just pretending. In this case, as long as you are not a fool, you can find the problem.

The three of them talked as if they were looking at the scenery. Guo Yi also learned about the history of the elixir village from Zirou. It turned out that the elixir village was established by the village chief and a pharmacist.

At the beginning, the two fled together, and when they met some poor refugees along the way, they would try their best to help them. As they fled along the way, they gradually formed a fleeing team. They were blocked on the other side of Huoling Mountain, and their escape finally came to an end.

Originally, according to the plan, they should go further south. If the demon army crossed the Huoling Mountain Range, they would not suffer immediately.

However, when the pharmacist saw that the Huoling Mountain Range was full of elixir, he temporarily changed his mind and planned to take root here first. Can form a powerful force.

However, things turned out to be contrary to expectations. Not long after, the pharmacist entered the depths of the Huoling Mountain Range to collect medicine, and unfortunately died when he encountered an extremely powerful third-level monster. , so I decided to stay here.

They came here unfamiliar with the place, and it can be said that life is extremely difficult, but there is a method passed down from the pharmacist to find the elixir.Moreover, among the relics left after the incident, there was also a book of elixir. With these things, the villagers of the elixir village had a skill and knew how to collect elixir.

It is precisely because of this that the elixir village has the capital to survive here. Compared with other nearby villages, their elixir village is obviously much better. Collecting elixir in exchange for gold coins, in just a few years, They used resources to create two spirits, which also made the elixir village the most powerful village in the vicinity.

Of course, with the massive collection of elixir, the number of nearby elixir gradually decreased, and it became more and more difficult for villagers to collect elixir. Moreover, as the demon army began to move around in the past few years, the development of the elixir village The trend has also been hit hard, and now it can only maintain the status quo.

When Zirou said this, she looked at Guo Yi with a hint of anticipation in her eyes, and she hesitated to speak several times, but in the end she resisted not opening her mouth.

Of course Guo Yi noticed this scene, and he also knew what Zi Rou meant. Back then, they had a pharmacist leading them, so they could be what they are today, and Guo Yi was also a pharmacist. If Guo Yi could lead them, the elixir village might be able to Get out of your current predicament.

Looking at Zirou, Guo Yi also fell into silence. If it is just to let Zirou's mother and daughter live a good life, Guo Yi is duty-bound, because Zirou is his savior, but if he wants to lead the whole village Regardless of whether Guo Yi is willing or not, whether he has such an ability is still unknown.

"If the villagers accept my leadership, I might give it a try and lead them out of the Huoling Mountain Range and venture into the outside world." Guo Yi finally said after thinking about it for a long time. This was a promise to Zi Rou.

Guo Yi did not make this promise on a whim. To survive in this world, he also needs a power. The Elixir Village is obviously a good choice, and the village chief also gave him a good impression.

After hearing Guo Yi's promise, Zirou's body shook slightly, and she glanced at Guo Yi gratefully. She knew that the reason why Guo Yi made this promise was to repay her for saving her life.
