Chapter 56 Gathering Herbs in the Mountains: An Unexpected Harvest of Wild Ginseng!

After giving her mother instructions, Shen Shuli led her people to prepare to go up the mountain.

Seeing that Shen Shuli ignored her and even took her cousin away, Shen Zishi left only her behind.

I was so angry.

"Su Shuli, why didn't you take me with you! I'm going to tell my parents, grandparents, and everyone else that you bullied me!"

Shen Zishi stomped her foot in anger; she had never been ignored like this before!

Shen Shuli ignored her and continued leading the group into the mountains.

"Shen Ziyi! Come back here! You're my brother! I won't let you play with her! Come back, come back, come back!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Ziyi stopped, looked at Shen Shuli's back, and then at his sister who looked furious.

He gritted his teeth and continued to follow Shen Shuli.

Shen Zishi never expected that her cousin, who had always doted on her, would ignore her. She burst into tears and ran back to her mother.

Shen Ziyi quickened his pace to catch up with Shen Shuli and couldn't help but ask, "Cousin, are we really going to ignore Shishi?"

"I don't have time to coax a child. If you feel sorry for her, go back. I won't stop you," Shen Shuli said calmly.

Shen Ziyi immediately fell silent and stopped speaking.

"Let's split up here. We'll each go in a different direction and look for a secluded place around the area that can accommodate all of us."

Seeing that there was no droppings or signs of activity from large wild animals around, Shen Shuli assumed there was no danger and assigned tasks to Shen Ziyi and Li Qinghe.

She glanced at Zhang Songbai and said, "Songbai, you should look for herbs around here. I see there are quite a few plants around here. It's best not to go more than five miles away. I'm afraid you'll encounter danger if you go too far."

Zhang Songbai smiled brightly and nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, I'm nearby and won't cause any trouble for anyone."

"Is there any particular herb you'd like? Tell us what it looks like, and if we come across it on the way, we can help you gather it," Shen Shuli asked.

She remembered that there were many medicinal herbs growing in the space.

Those medicinal herbs were all irrigated with diluted spiritual spring water, making them much more effective than ordinary herbs from outside.

With so many people injured this time, she can take this opportunity to provide some relief so that everyone can recover quickly and get back on their way.

"That's troublesome. I need herbs to promote wound healing and reduce fever and inflammation: Panax notoginseng, Sargentodoxa cuneata, Ligusticum chuanxiong..."

Zhang Songbai mentioned several of the most needed medicines and described the plant characteristics to the three of them in detail.

Shen Shuli has all of these types of spaces.

She was on a mission in modern times, and external injuries were unavoidable.

The space is filled with precious medicinal herbs for treating external injuries, and when combined with the spiritual spring water, the wounds heal incredibly quickly.

“Okay, we’ve got it. If we come across any, we’ll definitely bring them back for you,” Shen Ziyi said immediately.

He remembered very carefully.

Eleven members of the Shen family participated in the battle, and nine of them were seriously injured.

He naturally cared most about this matter.

Li Qinghe knew about the Shen family's situation, and she tried her best to remember it, wanting to do her part.

"Remember, everyone, you must return here to assemble within two hours at most."

"If anyone doesn't come back on time, don't rush in and search for them."

"I have two kinds of signal flares here. Use the red one if you encounter danger, and use the blue one if you find a suitable position."

"It's very easy to use. You just need to take this and find an open space with no obstructions in the sky, press this spot and launch it into the sky, and people nearby will be able to see it."

"You can take one to practice first."

Shen Shuli distributed one to each person.

Just to be on the safe side, we'd like everyone to practice once before we feel at ease.

Shen Ziyi and the other two found it all very novel; they had never seen anything so interesting before.

Start operating according to the steps taught by Shen Shuli.

"biu~biu~biu~"

All three users successfully used it.

Shen Shuli nodded in satisfaction and then gave each person two different colored signal flares.

"Cousin, this is so much fun!" Shen Ziyi exclaimed with curiosity, like a child who had just received a new toy.

"I have even more fun stuff to do. I'll bring it to you guys when we get back," Shen Shuli said with a smile.

Shen Ziyi's eyes were full of anticipation.

"Alright, hurry up and go. Remember to come back on time."

"understood."

The group immediately split up and took action.

Shen Shuli chose the most dangerous east side.

The easternmost part is closest to the deep mountains.

Last night, she faintly heard wild beasts roaring from the east.

Later, after the appearance of barbarians, those cries stopped.

Perhaps they were scared away.

No one was around.

Shen Shuli immediately took out her binoculars to survey the terrain.

They spent most of the day without finding a suitable place.

The deeper they went into the mountains, the steeper the slopes became, and the less flat land there was, making it unsuitable for the team to rest.

The main problem is that the hillside is too steep, and the livestock simply cannot pull the supplies up the mountain.

Unable to go any further, Shen Shuli chose to search horizontally to both sides.

They haven't found their ideal place yet.

Shen Shuli spotted a wild ginseng with a tuft of red beads on its top.

Around a hundred years ago.

She immediately started digging.

Halfway through digging, Shen Shuli's ears twitched.

A faint sound was detected nearby.

She stopped immediately and looked in the direction of the sound.

A snake as thick as an arm and with a triangular head was slowly approaching her.

Shen Shuli immediately took out a short knife and fired it at the right moment.

The snake's head was cut off.

Shen Shuli breathed a slight sigh of relief.

This snake is a highly venomous king cobra.

If you are unlucky enough to get bitten by it, you will lose your life.

Ignoring the snake's corpse, Shen Shuli continued to carefully dig for ginseng.

Finally, it's done.

Shen Shuli found a safe spot under a large tree before her consciousness sank into the space.

Carefully remove the ginseng seeds and plant the freshly dug ginseng and seeds in the spiritual field of the space.

Pour a few drops of pure spring water on it.

He dug up a 20-year-old ginseng from the spirit field, and also dug up a dozen or so herbs for treating inflammation and reducing fever, before exiting the space.

The ginseng planted in the space was all grown from seeds of artificially cultivated ginseng.

This was the first time she had ever dug up wild ginseng.

It was very precious to her.

The medicinal effects of ginseng grown from wild ginseng seeds are hundreds of times stronger than those of artificially cultivated ginseng.

She definitely wouldn't want to waste it.

Although these ginsengs came from humble origins, they had been watered with spiritual spring water all these years, so their medicinal effects were definitely stronger than those of ordinary wild ginseng.

It's perfect for the wounded.

It was getting late, so Shen Shuli took the snake and immediately went down the mountain.

Return to the meeting point.

They found that everyone was there except her.

"Didn't any of you notice?"

Seeing that no one had used signal flares, Shen Shuli had already guessed the outcome.

Li Qinghe walked over and said, "No, the surrounding area is all slopes, and I don't think any of them are as good as where we are now. I also found a cave, but it's too small, only able to hold a dozen or so people. I don't think it's suitable. However, I dug up some herbs, so it wasn't a complete waste."

Shen Ziyi didn't find a suitable place either, but he dug up a lot of wild grass and even caught a pheasant.

Most of them were unusable weeds and were thrown away by Zhang Songbai. In the end, only three herbs were usable.
