Chapter 1392 Picking gra.s.s tips
From red tongue spirit gra.s.s’ core, only its two tips were taken for use. The two gra.s.s tips were dark red, shaped like a chicken tongue. When picking them, one must pinch its bone joints. This way, spirit energy breath contained in the gra.s.s tips could be locked. This miraculous medicine was necessary for medicine such as the Recovery Pill.
About half the time it took a column of incense to burn, she brought the gra.s.s tips to Chen Dao. “Senior Brother Chen, do you think these are enough?”
Chen Dao didn’t elaborate on how to pinch the gra.s.s tips earlier. He thought that the newcomer would ask him, but he didn’t expect that he would really pick out the gra.s.s tip in that amount of time.
He examined the gra.s.s tips in front of him carefully and asked, “Didn’t you say you’re a newcomer?”
“Yes! I just came in yesterday.” She grinned.
“An average errand boy doesn’t know how to pick the red tongue spirit gra.s.s.” He looked at Feng Jiu while stroking his funny mustache with one hand, sizing her up and probing her with his gaze.
“Thank you for your praise, Senior Brother Chen.” She answered, smiling with her eyes narrowed.
Hearing this, Chen Dao was stunned. “When did I praise you?”
“Senior Brother Chen said that ordinary errand boy don’t know this. Does that prove that I’m not an ordinary errand boy?” With a cunning look between her eyebrows, she smiled with her eyes narrowed. “I did my homework when I came in. I have seen a large number of spirit herbs, so I know how to pinch the tip of the herb to keep its efficacy.”
“Oh?”
Chen Dao was somewhat interested. “You’ve seen a large collection of spirit herbs? There’s a lot of elixir in there. Have you really seen and memorized them? ”
“Hehe…”
She smiled sheepishly. “In fact, I don’t remember much of them. Some I did remember, while some didn’t. It just so happens that this red tongue spirit gra.s.s is the part I remember.”
As she spoke, she thought that even though guarding this medicinal field was a leisurely job, she had to stay here all the time and couldn’t leave. Even walking around was a problem. She also didn’t have quick access to information. If she could change her job…
Seeing the cunning look between the young man’s eyebrows, his clever and handsome face was pleasing to look at. Now, seeing him answer his question while being somewhat absent-minded, Chen Dao couldn’t help smile. “What are you thinking about?”
“I’m thinking about how great it is if I can change my job.”
Feng Jiu talked carelessly. As if she had been caught off guard, as soon as she spoke, she covered her mouth with a look of surprise, blinked her eyes and looked at Chen Dao who seemed to be smiling in front of her, and smiled sheepishly.
“Senior Brother Chen, I just, I was just saying.” She hung her head like a child who had done something wrong.
“Ahem!”
Chen Dao coughed lightly, his hands were clasped behind his back. “Is it not good to guard the medicinal field here? It’s a leisurely job!”
Feng Jiu looked up and sighed, feeling embarra.s.sed and distressed, “This job is just too idle. I’ve been sitting here for most of the day and I only meet you. If Senior Brother Chen didn’t come, I had no idea what to do.”
Chen Dao laughed out loud to hear that. He nodded. With a look of understanding, he said, “Yes, a teenager like you is fickle and impatient! It’s really boring for you to keep guarding this medicinal field. ”
“Senior Brother Chen…” She looked at him expectantly.
