Chapter 37: Stirring up the Snake's Nest

Sheng Changan looked around, and after confirming that there was nothing he needed, he simply followed Du Zhong around.

Du Zhong sighed regretfully. He couldn't take it back this time. He had to go further in and could only come back next time.

Seeing Du Zhong's reluctant look, Sheng Changan felt helpless and could only let him go. However, this also made her further confirm that this old man was indeed a medical enthusiast. When the time was right, she could talk to him about modern Western medicine. If surgery could be performed here, some difficult and complicated diseases could be easily solved.

When he returned to his original position, Li Dashan was sprinkling the prepared snake and insect repellent powder around. Soon, a rustling sound was heard in the grass. It seemed that there were many things lurking around.

Those who went back also returned quickly. This place was more like a forest than a mountain, and even the night fell faster. Shen Huaizhi and Li Dashan decided to take turns to keep watch, as it was really dangerous here at night.

Sheng Changan also closed her eyes gently, not daring to sleep too deeply. In this environment, no one except Du Zhong dared to sleep so soundly. Thinking of those colorful snakes, she still felt a little numb. If she was bitten, it would be no joke, not to mention that this happened not far from the outside.

Around dawn, Sheng Changan decided to set off again. Although it seemed still early here, it might be bright outside.

This time, after walking a short distance, she unexpectedly discovered the hook tree, which is a good material for making paper. Although bamboo can also be used, the process is still a bit complicated. The most important thing is that you only need to use its bark, and its bark can be regenerated. "Remember this place, and find someone to come in and move a few trees out later."

The adaptability of the mulberry tree is so strong that it only requires transplanting some seedlings. It will grow in a year, and more seedlings will grow around it, so there is no need to worry about the follow-up.

Eucommia also came over: "Isn't this a paper mulberry seed? What are you going to use it for?"

"Its skin can be used to make paper, do you know it?" Is it also a traditional Chinese medicine?

"Of course, it has many uses. The seeds can be used to nourish the kidneys and strengthen the bones. The leaves can clear away heat and cool the blood. The bark can be used as a diuretic and reduce swelling. The sap can also be used to reduce swelling and detoxify." The most important thing is that it can treat impotence. The medicine made from it can be exchanged for a lot of money. However, I didn't tell this to a little girl. Who knows what she would think after hearing it.

Kidney nourishment? If it is made into medicine and sold, it should make a lot of money, but this old man will definitely not be willing to help her do this. She still needs to find a way to convince him to stay.

Du Zhong was still touching the medicinal herbs here and there, completely unaware of Sheng Changan's sinister intentions.

Since this is the case, this needs to be moved a little further out. Sheng Changan directly asked Li Dashan to remember this location so that it would be easier to find it later.

Li Dashan agreed readily. There were quite a lot of these things in the mountains, but he didn't expect them to be so useful. He didn't even know about it.

"Mr. Du, please pay attention. If there are any medicines for treating external injuries and colds, we can move them outside to see if we can plant them." We still need to prepare some medicines just in case, and we will have to arrange for more people to come in and collect the medicines and dry them later.

Du Zhong was quite serious about this aspect, and he knew that this girl was doing this for the people of Guangping County, so he did not oppose her. It was not easy to find someone who cared about the people these days.

Sheng Changan simply called Li Dashan over and asked him to follow behind Eucommia ulmoides: "Pay attention to the position, and arrange for someone to come over and perform the transplant."

Li Dashan nodded seriously and followed Du Zhong closely. Du Zhong rolled his eyes at him and said nothing more.

He pointed as he walked: "See, this is called bitter wood. Although it is a little poisonous, it can be treated to prevent and cure colds after processing." Before he finished speaking, a cry of surprise came from behind.

A black and white tail slid past quickly, and a man fell to the ground, covering his legs. Du Zhong ran over with a serious face and said, "Who has a knife?"

Shen Huaizhi handed over the knife in his hand, and Du Zhong quickly drew a cross on the wound where he was bitten. "Hey big guy, come here and squeeze out the poisonous blood with your hands."

Li Dashan did not dare to relax. He pinched his legs with both hands to make the poisonous blood flow faster. Du Zhong scraped a little skin from the medicinal herbs he found at the beginning with a knife, and found some other medicinal herbs nearby to combine them, some for external application and some for internal use.

"We have to leave here. I suspect this is its lair." Otherwise, his powder should be able to drive them away. What's more, there are so many antidotes for snake venom here, which is obviously not normal.

Sheng Changan's expression also turned serious. It was said that where poisonous snakes were present, there would be an antidote within ten steps. This meant that there must be a lot of snakes nearby. "Let's go, leave first."

Li Dashan turned around, pulled out a few seedlings of bitter wood and was about to leave when a black snake pounced towards him. He grabbed its vital points and threw it out.

Sheng Changan was startled. She didn't expect that Li Dashan would suddenly turn back after she said she was leaving. The rustling sounds became more and more frequent. She couldn't settle the score with Li Dashan now, so she could only leave first.

After they left, colorful snakes almost emerged and entwined themselves with each other.

Sheng Changan's face was solemn: "Let's go back first, and come back to find Yaowang Gallbladder next time."

She suddenly remembered that spring is the season when all things come back to life, and those snakes are likely to be mating. At this time, snakes will be more aggressive than usual, so she can only wait until the weather gets colder.

Shen Huaizhi also knew that now was not the time to look for the Medicine King Gallbladder.

After spending nearly a day, several people finally came out. Wu Xiancheng came to greet them. He didn't expect them to come out so early. He just saw someone being carried out and knew that something must have happened. "Sir"

"I'll ask someone to go in and cut down the trees I want after a while." They have already alarmed the snakes and they are afraid that they may become aggressive at this time.

Returning to the temporary residence, Sheng Changan said in a cold tone: "Shen Huaizhi, Li Dashan, come with me."

Li Dashan was a little confused. Why did the adult look so ugly? County Magistrate Wu paused, probably because he knew that Li Dashan must have done something to offend the adult.

Sheng Changan's expression was particularly grim. He found a quiet place and made sure no one would hear him before turning around and looking at Li Dashan. "Why didn't you listen to me and insist on turning around to pick that herb?"

Li Dashan felt a little aggrieved and at a loss: "I thought the adults would want it."

Sheng Changan ignored his excuse: "So you think I will just throw my order behind your back, right? Is it true that my words are no longer effective on you now?"

"My lord, I was wrong." When Li Dashan heard the lord start to call himself "this official", he knew that she was really angry, and he could only lower his head and admit his mistake.
