Chapter 6: Collecting herbs (This chapter is free)

Yu Ci must thank his biological parents for giving him a talent that is beyond ordinary people. It is the extraordinary sense of smell he used before. He is born with a sensitive sense of smell, able to distinguish the complex smells mixed one by one, and can also pay attention to the subtle breath that ordinary people ignore. On weekdays, he has relied on this talent, and in the Tianli Valley, he relied on this talent to accurately find the location of the shrimp and beard grass in the endless clouds and fog.

With the target approaching, Yu Ci's mind became more and more stable. Instead of rushing to pick it, he took out the bronze mirror of Zhaoshen from his sleeve, inspiring the green light to draw talismans with it.

The talisman is composed of five colors and essence, which is mixed with all realms, and is used to control the gods and stars. There are cloud seal thunder texts, dragon seal phoenix texts, demon maps and ghost patterns. All the people they take are like the image and the power of the gods, and they are considered to be used to communicate with the gods.

Over ten years, Yu Ci has been studying the ways of talismans every day, and the "Shangqing Juxuan Xingshu Secret Talismanship Sutra" volumeed from the Shuangxian Sect is his only source of systematic knowledge. Although there are nearly a thousand kinds of talismans on the talisman books, he is only proficient in more than ten kinds of talismans, but he is already familiar with the various accounts in the book.

The "Shangqing Juxuan Xingshu Secret Talismanship Sutra" records three sets of talisman systems, namely Yunzhan Leiwen, Dragon and Phoenix, and Demon Picture Ghost Patterns. Among them, Yunzhan Leiwen is to depict the natural yin and yang of the world, and the Dragon and Phoenix text absorb the agility of birds and beasts. As for the Demon Picture Ghost Patterns, it is to learn from the evil power of the witchcraft and ghost path.

These three talisman systems can all form their own patterns, but the truly exquisite talisman methods are all combined to obtain the essence of the three sides.

Unfortunately, Yu Ci's cultivation is not strong and his Taoism is not deep. Even if he has a good spiritual source like Zhaoshen Bronze Mirror, he can draw the ghost painting talismans in a slight way, but he still cannot activate the power of those advanced talismans. Now he can only learn some relatively simple and pure runes, mainly single-system runes, just like the one he is using right now.

The fingers move the green light spiritual guide, drawing extremely abstract figures in the void. The upper one is bird pattern, the lower one is tiger pattern, the surroundings are lined up, and the center is ended with inflected seal and censor patterns. When all runes are drawn, the green light pattern remaining in the void will illuminate together, and then it will quickly condense and shrink until it becomes a delicate talisman the size of half a palm, and then it will not be fixed.

Yu Ci stretched out his hand, and the talisman immediately flew out. The flight trajectory was very strange. He flew around the circle with Yu Ci's finger as the axis. The circle became bigger and bigger, and the talisman flew farther and farther away until it completely submerged into the thick fog. Yu Ci pulled his hand back.

This is the five-way spiritual talisman, which is one of the most complex talismans that Yu Ci learned from the "Shangqing Juxuanxing Shu Secret Talismanship Sutra". Although it is mainly composed of the Dragon and Chapter 2011, it also involves the system of clouds, thunder and demons. Yu Ci has practiced this talisman for five years before it can be applied.

This talisman has no attack power, but it can use itself as a reference to explore the violent activities of all living beings within a radius of five miles, and feed it back into the soul of the magician. It is so sensitive that Yu Ci uses it as a warning.

After everything was ready, Yu Ci stepped forward and slowly walked to the upper edge of the giant pine as if walking on a single bridge.

The shrimp beard grass was already bent over. Yu Ci was not in a hurry. He took out the prepared stone box from his sleeve and carefully placed it in a recessed branch formed by several pine branches at his hand. This was a natural stable platform, but Yu Ci was still worried, so he fixed it with a talisman, which was finished.

Then he bent down and carefully picked shrimp and beard grass.

The grass leaves are only the thickness of hair. When they are wrapped around the trunk, they are entangled with the uneven bark. If you are not careful, you will break. Because of the medicinal requirements, the roots must be taken down together when picking. Therefore, Yu Ci must sort out the tangled grass leaves one by one and untie them until the roots are found before they can be pulled out.

This type of work is completely a water grinding skill, which is very challenging to patience and is most afraid of accidents.

Fortunately, Yu Ci's luck today was pretty good. After more than three hours, without any external force, Yu Ci successfully picked this piece of shrimp and beard grass, and it was roughly preserved intact, with about a hundred and a hundred. As they were picked, they were placed one by one in the stone box beside them.

As he said to Xuanqing that day, shrimp and beard grass can absorb the spiritual energy of Yi wood and is incompatible with the metal energy, so it cannot be decorated with metal or wooden boxes. It can only be used to use the stone box under the influence of the incident in Bai Rifu. Among the stone boxes, shrimp and beard grass has been paved with a shallow layer, and there are three or five hundred pieces. This is all his harvest in the past four months.

These herbs are taken back to the manager of Bai Rifu. They must be divided into details based on their appearance and integrity. The value must be discounted by three or two. As for the discount, Bai Rifu naturally accepts it with a smile. This is the convention, and a casual person like him can do nothing.

After doing all this, the sky was already dark. The half-falling sunset shone weakly into the clouds. Yu Ci put away the stone box and took away all kinds of magic. With the horizontal branches and rock gaps, he climbed up the hundreds of feet of mountain walls like a monkey. When he arrived on the cliff, he realized that the strong wind blew, and he realized that his clothes were soaked in sweat and the coolness was soaked, which was definitely not good.

That’s all for today’s work. Yu Ci was also exhausted. She found a place to go back and adjusted her breath for a while. After the middle clothes were dry, she left and fell into the vast mountains behind her.

After more than five months of running around Tianli Valley, Yu Ci's place of stay also changed at any time. The place he arranged in advance yesterday was more than a hundred miles away, and it took nearly an hour to go back and forth on the road just after just one round trip.

But it is worth running these routes more. In the past few months, Yu Ci has seen more than once. People who come here to collect herbs have fought and stopped until they die. It is fierce and tragic and unsuccessful without personally participating in it. It is hard to imagine that people die for money and birds die for food.

Yu Ci is not a person who is afraid of trouble, but since he has worked hard for a day, he naturally has to find a safe place to rest and recuperate. How could he have so much spare time to deal with those greedy people?

After entering the wild forest, the night quickly fell and his vision became dim. Yu Ci's leaping speed did not decrease at all. The unique aura of the mountains and forests blew through his nose. He could distinguish the hidden dangers of approaching from these thousands of scents of scents and change lanes in time, and he could escape many troubles from these thousands of scents of mixed smells.

Seeing the destination looking at it, Yu Ci was stunned and then slowed down.

Where he is, the trees have become sparse, and instead they are rugged rocks, dark and thin, and the night is extremely desolate. Because of this, a cluster of bonfires can flash and shake in his eyes through the gaps between the trees. What is clearer than the fire is the "human taste" blowing from the mountain wind. In addition, although it is extremely weak, Yu Ci can still capture the unique fragrance of shrimp beard grass.

If it were separated by the stone box, Ren Yuci would not be able to smell the slightest scent at this distance. There is only one possibility, that is, someone opened the stone box, observed or counted the shrimp and beard grass stored in the box.

Yu Ci was sure that there were more than fifteen people there. The owner of the stone box could do this without any scruples, so this group of people should be in a group and came here to pick herbs together. At the Tianli Valley, it is a relatively large team.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but scratch his head. He could go around, but the bad thing was that the hiding place he had put in great effort yesterday was not far away from the group of people. If he went around, he would probably be sleeping in the wilderness tonight.

Just as he was thinking, his face changed slightly. He had just faced the wind, but he didn't notice that seven or eight people were approaching the side, only half a mile away from where he was. He retracted his left hand and pinched the Zhaoshen bronze clerk.

Unfortunately, he encountered a disaster two days ago. The sword he bought with hardware in the cliff city broke in the battle and lost a handful of weapon. He encountered it and would suffer a loss when he encountered it.

But soon, his sensitive nose identified some information: it seemed like he was an acquaintance!
