Report to the Marquis! The Madam went to the military camp to flirt with men again
Chapter 127 Twin white jade beauty bones!
Old man Jia's mouth was watering at the smell of the rice. He ate a large bowl of rice without hesitation and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where did you get the money to buy vegetables?"
"This was given to me by Aunt Xiao at the foot of the mountain." Lin Zhuwei replied with a faint smile, "I went to the back mountain to collect herbs and saved Aunt Xiao. She asked me to help her son with his leg injury, and she insisted on bringing it back to me before I came back."
There was a flash of surprise in Old Man Jia's eyes: "You know how to practice medicine?"
“I know a little bit.”
Lin Zhuwei was cleaning up the dishes and didn't notice his surprise. She just said, "Master Jia, I have to go into the mountains tomorrow to pick some better herbs for Aunt Xiao. If I can't make it back in time, I will definitely come back tomorrow. Don't worry about me."
Old man Jia snorted, as if to say that her explanation was unnecessary.
What does it have to do with him whether she lives or dies?
But I don't know why, there was a little joy in my heart.
He pushed the bowl and chopsticks aside and hummed, "To treat leg injuries, the combination of fern grass and ground pitcher grass is the best."
Lin Zhuwei's eyes suddenly lit up: "Master Jia, do you know medicine?"
Old man Jia snorted almost inaudibly, then stood up and left.
No matter how Lin Zhuwei asked, he refused to say another word.
This old man is so stubborn.
The next day, Lin Zhuwei woke up early, caught two small fish, heated up the leftover food from last night, and took a few bites.
"Master Jia, I'm going out!" Lin Zhuwei shouted loudly, then picked up the bamboo basket and went out.
Fern and pitcher plants are hard to find.
Lin Zhuwei went deeper into the back mountain and it took some time for him to pick the fruits.
When he was about to go back, Lin Zhuwei unexpectedly discovered a white jade beauty bone high on the cliff.
Or twins!
The White Jade Beauty Bone Grass is snow-white like jade beads, and its fine bones are clearly visible, like the figure of a slender beauty, hence the name.
It can cure high fever and hypochondria, and can detoxify more than a hundred kinds of poisons, which is very valuable.
Single white jade beauty bones are common, but twins with branches are hard to find.
There will be an extra medicine core in the middle where they are connected, and this medicine core is more valuable.
Unfortunately, it grows high on a cliff, making it quite difficult to pick.
But Lin Zhuwei hesitated for only a moment before deciding to take it. She was in dire need of money.
She had tried cliff climbing before, and it only took her a moment to decide on the first stone to step on.
The higher you go, the steeper the slope becomes, and the less space there is to step on.
Lin Zhuwei thrust the grass-digging knife deeply into the crevice of the cliff, then grasped the handle and slowly moved upwards.
The stones under her feet were clanging and falling, which made Lin Zhuwei jump with fear. She slipped without paying attention and fell down along the cliff...
The sharp stones scratched her hands and feet, and her face hurt, with a long streak of blood oozing out.
Lin Zhuwei's heart began to plummet. If it fell any further, she was afraid that it would be shattered to pieces.
She quickly picked up another sharp knife and thrust it into the cliff to slow down her fall. She then quickly reached out and grabbed the vines next to her, and used her body to lean against the cliff to stop herself from sliding down.
Lin Zhuwei took a deep breath, put his feet on the small stone, held the vine, and moved up little by little...
Just when she was about to touch the white jade beauty's bones, who would have thought that when she looked up, she saw a poisonous snake as thick as her wrist entangled on a dry branch next to it, spitting its tongue at her.
Lin Zhuwei shuddered and stared at it closely, not daring to move.
There is an abyss under your feet and a poisonous snake above your head. If you are not careful, you will meet the King of Hell.
She held her breath, calmed herself, and pulled hard at the vine tied tightly around her waist to make sure it could withstand the sudden weight.
The only weapon that can deal with it now is the knife in hand.
Lin Zhuwei dug up a small stone and threw it accurately at the poisonous snake.
The poisonous snake was hit and flew towards Lin Zhuwei fiercely with its tongue spitting out.
The snake's tail precisely wrapped around the vine above Lin Zhuwei's head, and at the same time, it opened its bloody mouth and bit towards Lin Zhuwei -
Lin Zhuwei quickly grabbed the vines, put his feet against the rock wall, swung himself up to avoid its bite, and then stabbed at it with the knife in his hand.
The knife missed the target by a few inches and only stabbed the snake's belly. She originally wanted to stab the snake's eyes.
But she didn't care about that now. She pulled hard, leaving a long cut on the snake's belly and blood dripping down.
The poisonous snake hissed in pain, became more ruthless, let go of the vines, and with a gesture of dying together, opened its mouth and bit towards Lin Zhuwei.
Lin Zhuwei was shocked and had no time to think, so he could only raise his arms to block.
Not surprisingly, the arm was bitten severely by the poisonous snake.
Lin Zhuwei quickly shook the venomous snake hard, and it was originally hanging in the air, and fell straight down the cliff in just one go.
Lin Zhuwei didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief. She quickly looked at her arm. The place where she was bitten was already black and blue. Her arm began to feel numb and even her body began to shiver.
poisoned!
Once the snake venom enters the lungs, even gods may not be able to save you.
Lin Zhuwei quickly swung himself close to the white jade beauty's bones, leaned his body against the cliff, pulled a leaf from its root, and quickly put it into his mouth to chew.
Fate!
If it weren't for the white jade beauty bone that could just cure snake venom, she would probably not have been able to get down the mountain alive today.
After the snake venom was gone, Lin Zhuwei let out a long breath, wiped the blood dripping from his eyebrows, and then carefully pried it out with its roots and leaves.
Then carefully put it into your sleeve pocket and move it down little by little.
By the time she landed safely, it was already past noon.
She hurried to Aunt Xiao's house along the same route she took yesterday, and saw her pacing anxiously at the door from afar.
It wasn't until she saw Lin Zhuwei that she felt relieved and hurried over to her: "Girl, you're here!"
Lin Zhuwei nodded lightly and put down the bamboo basket.
Only then did Aunt Xiao realize that her body and face were covered with wounds.
"Girl, you are hurt!" Aunt Xiao felt very guilty. This girl had suffered so much just to collect herbs for her son.
"It's okay." Lin Zhuwei shook her head lightly.
She washed her face and went into the room to check on her son's legs. She found that the swelling had subsided a lot and the pus had begun to scab over.
She pounded the fern and the pitcher grass into pieces and changed the medicine for him.
By the time Lin Zhuwei finished her work, Aunt Xiao had already prepared the meal.
After she finished her meal and rested, Aunt Xiao quickly pulled her into the kitchen and began to teach her how to cook and make pancakes.
"Auntie Xiao, is this place far from town?"
"If we take the main road, it's quite far, at least an hour. But I know there's a small mountain road that takes less than half an hour to go back and forth. Girl, what are you going to do in town?"
"I picked some herbs to see if anyone in town needs them."
Aunt Xiao felt a little embarrassed because she couldn't even pay the medical fees, which led to a little girl having to sell herbal medicine to make money.
She quickly said, "Take a rest first, and I'll take you along that path tomorrow."
Lin Zhuwei nodded.
The next morning, Aunt Xiao went to the fields to pick some fruits and vegetables, put them in a backpack, and took them to sell.
The two hurried to the town. Aunt Xiao found a place to set up a stall and told Lin Zhuwei, "I'll wait for you here. We have to go back before dark. That small road is prone to robbers and is not safe."
"Okay, I understand." Lin Zhuwei nodded, then carried the bamboo basket and went to find a medicine store.
There are quite a few pharmacies in this town.
Lin Zhuwei found a restaurant with a nice name, Miaorentang, and walked in.
"Miss, what medicine do you want to buy?" Seeing that she was covered in injuries, Shopkeeper Xu quickly came over to her.
"I don't buy medicine, I sell medicine." Lin Zhuwei put down the backpack and said.
Shopkeeper Xu smiled and looked her up and down. "Miss, I don't accept ordinary herbs here. Why don't you go somewhere else first?"
What good herbs can a little girl of fifteen or sixteen have? It's a waste of time.
Lin Zhuwei took out the herbs from the basket and placed them on the counter.
Shopkeeper Xu was a little surprised that the herbs she brought were of better quality than usual.
Some are even relatively rare.
But his Miaorentang is the largest pharmacy here after all, with many procurement channels, so he is not short of these.
"Miss, I don't lack these herbs. Why don't you go out and look somewhere else?" Shopkeeper Xu said with a smile.
Lin Zhuwei curled her lips, took out a small jar from the bamboo basket, opened it, and placed it on the counter.
When Shopkeeper Xu stretched his head and took a look, his eyes widened.
"White jade beauty bones?" Shopkeeper Xu sounded quite surprised.
He also has the White Jade Beauty Bone Herb.
But it is really rare to see one that is so crystal white all over, even the bones are white, and it has twin necks.
"Miss, I want this herb. How about five taels of silver?"
Lin Zhuwei sneered, and without saying a word, he stuffed the herbs on the counter into the bamboo basket.
