Chapter 62: Plant herbs in space

Chapter 62 Growing herbs in space

Sun Kang was smiling all the time, and he was not bored, and patiently answered every question Zhao Zhitong asked.

Even if she sometimes asks a question several times, she will patiently tell her about it.



"Grandpa! Grandpa!"

At this time, Zhao Zhitong trotted up to Sun Kang with a freshly dug grass root, and said like offering a treasure: "Grandpa, look I dug this up, I know it, this is kudzu root."

Sun Kang put the collected herbs into the back basket, nodded with a smile: "That's right, then do you remember the notes about kudzu root in "The Fu of Medicine Nature?"

Zhao Zhitong nodded his head, and began to recite in a childlike voice: "I remember, I remember, it is of cold nature, and the book says, 'Treat the muscles and relieve the exterior, dry Ge first and Bupleurum second.'"

Sun Kang stroked his beard, and was even more satisfied with his granddaughter. At a young age, she could recite it by heart and quickly read it from memory accurately. The talent is really high.

In the end, there was another wave of emotion: "Girl, why aren't you a boy, alas!"

Zhao Zhitong tilted his head and asked in confusion: "Why did grandpa say that? I don't want to be a male doll. Male dolls don't like to be clean. They smell bad and have a runny nose, just a little slug."

The stinky boy with a runny nose in her mouth is Zhao Yue who always fights against her.

Sun Kang was stunned when he heard this, and then he burst out laughing: "Yes, yes, it's fine for girls or girls."

Zhao Zhitong: "Yes."

With the approval of his grandfather, Zhao Zhitong was very happy, and carefully put the herbs he picked into the basket.

Grandpa said that the herbs she collected belonged to her, so she had to protect them well.

Then, I trot to pick other herbs.

Not long after, Zhao Zhitong discovered a treasure - Polygonum multiflorum.

Grandpa said that the roots of Polygonum multiflorum can be used as medicine, which can soothe the nerves, nourish blood, activate collaterals, detoxify, and eliminate carbuncles; Polygonum multiflorum (processed Polygonum multiflorum) can nourish essence and blood, black beard and hair, strengthen muscles and bones, and nourish liver and kidney. It is a common precious medicinal material .

However, the bead she found is not precious because it is too small.

Grandpa said that if you get a hundred-year-old Shouwu, it will be very precious, and it can be worth a thousand taels of silver.

So, Zhao Zhitong squatted next to Shouwu, regrettably got up, and said with bright eyes: "Grandpa, why don't we build a fence to protect it, and we will dig it out after a hundred years."

The child's naive thoughts made Sun Kang helplessly laugh: "Girl, after a hundred years, we will not be alive."

Zhao Zhitong was puzzled: "Why? Why aren't we here anymore? I want my grandfather to live a long life, Tong Tong to live a long life, and my parents to live a long life. They all live a long life."

Sun Kang laughed haha: "Yes, Tongtong, didn't you say it yourself, and you are only a hundred years old."

Zhao Zhitong tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "Then thousand years old, long, long, very, very long, just like, um, just as long as a bastard~, we will all be bastards."

Sun Kang's face twitched, and he quickly changed the subject: "Ahem, well girl, hurry up and dig other herbs, and leave this to our descendants."

"Oh."

Zhao Zhitong nodded obediently, but he was muttering in his heart, isn't it good to be a bastard?

Grandpa Bai in the space: "..."

Grandpa Bai was speechless at the little girl's innocent thoughts, and then said, "Girl, have you forgotten again?"

Zhao Zhitong asked suspiciously: "What? What did I forget?"

Grandpa Bai patiently said: "Did you forget that you can grow things in the space, and if you plant things in the space and nourish them with spiritual spring water, they can grow rapidly. One day in the space can be equivalent to a year outside, and the medicinal effect Very significant."

"Wow~"

Zhao Zhitong's small mouth opened into an O shape. After a while, he thought of something and said excitedly, "Then I'm going to put Shouwu into the space!"

Then, consciousness enters the space.

At this time, the Lingquan water in the space was bigger than before, and now it was as big as a big bowl. Grandpa Bai said that this change happened because her merit points were slowly increasing.

"Grandpa Bai, where is Tian, ​​where is Tian?"

As soon as he entered the space, Zhao Zhitong started looking around.

Grandpa Bai stroked his beard, smiled and said, "It's next to the Lingquan, you go and have a look."

So, Zhao Zhitong walked towards Lingquan, and then, he saw, not far from Lingquan, there was a checkerboard-sized square, and the texture of that square was different from that of the side.

Other places are hard stones, but in that square, there is soil, and there is a stream of flowing gas around it.

Grandpa Bai told her that the gas-like thing exists because of the different speed of time.

Grandpa Bai explained: "Girl, your merit value is too low now, so you can only develop such a small field, just enough to grow a plant. When your merit value increases, you can expand it."

At this time, Zhao Zhitong didn't care about the future or not, and was excited to move Polygonum multiflorum into the space.

She came out of the space first, and carefully dug the soil next to Shouwu with a small shovel.

Because Grandpa Bai said that the diggers should not be damaged, otherwise they would not be able to support themselves.

But the root of Shouwu is really deep! She was sweating profusely and dug a big hole before digging out all the Shouwu.

Then, I hurriedly put it into the space, and the consciousness followed.

Grandpa Bai instructed her to dig a big hole first, then put the Shouwu in it, then cover it with soil, and irrigate it with Lingquan water, and it will be fine.

After she finished all this work, grandpa had already dug half of the box of herbs. He glanced at the big hole Zhao Zhitong dug, and finally said nothing. The child can dig it if he wants. This Shouwu grows in such a conspicuous place , also less than a hundred years.

Zhao Zhitong is not bad either, he also dug up half a box of herbs.

But her frame is very small, in fact, there are not many, but when she dug up a Shouwu, she felt that she had gained a lot.

Hungry, the grandpa and grandson sat directly under the tree and ate the food Sun Mei prepared for them, including boiled eggs, scallion pancakes, and porridge in bamboo tubes.

Of course, what Zhao Zhitong drank was milk, and she thought her grandfather drank the same as him, but after she tasted it, she realized that it was different.

It can't be blamed that Sun Mei didn't prepare milk for her father. The problem is that she prepared it, and there is no way to explain it.

Before, I thought about getting Zhao Dong to buy a sheep back and pretend it was goat milk, but a sheep is so expensive that it would die, so let’s put it on hold for now.

Zhao Zhitong is developing now and rarely eats meat, so Sun Mei will let her drink more milk and eat more eggs to supplement protein.

After the two filled their stomachs, they continued to walk into the mountain. It was not until the afternoon that the grandpa and grandson went down the mountain to go home.

They didn't go back to Zhao's house, but went directly to Sun's house.

After the herbal medicine is collected, it is necessary to learn to run the medicine collection. When the two of them came back with a box full of herbs on their backs, the eldest uncle was processing medicinal materials in the backyard.

And the little cousins ​​and sisters didn't go to Zhao's house today. Seeing the little cousin coming, they all swarmed up.

Zhao Zhitong began to tell them how much fun there is on the mountain.

Just as he was bragging about how many herbs she had picked, Shunkang over there started calling her: "Girl, come here."
