It took Qi Changliang a long time to process this news.
“Mr. Luo, this matter is a little sudden, so I want to discuss it with my family first. What do you think?”
“Of course. We’ll go back to the mountain later and wander around. Jiao Hang will stay here. Let him be in charge of protecting you guys. After Zi Zheng brings the medicine, they’ll be in charge of brewing it. Then, Miss Qi only needs to take a bowl three times a day! I’ll prescribe two sets of medicine first.
take them for four days. Four days later, we’ll return from the mountain and come back to treat Miss Qi. If it’s useful, take it for another half a month. I’ll give you another prescription. After taking a few medicines, you’ll be able to detoxify all the poison in your bodies!” Luo Cheng said, “During this period, you’ll have plenty of time to think over things!”
With Luo Cheng’s help, Qi Changliang heaved a sigh of relief.
After that, Luo Cheng brought everyone up the mountain, leaving Jiao Hang waiting for Zi Zheng.
When Zi Zheng returned, Luo Cheng, Li Xiaoran, and the others had yet to go far, so they quickly caught up.
Luo Cheng asked when he saw Zi Zheng, “You’re here? Did you give all the medicine to Jiao Hang?”
“Yes, I did! I told him how to brew the medicine, then I came here!” Zi Zheng nodded and said, “In order not to let Jiao Hang make a mistake, I even called the Qi family over to tell them how to brew this medicine as well!”
Luo Cheng nodded and led the group into the mountain.
At this moment, the weather was already extremely hot. The group of people felt extremely hot as they walked in the forest.
Wu Qinghe said weakly, “Mr. Luo, Mr. Luo, I think it’s too unproductive for us to walk in the mountains at this time! Look at us. We’re sweating so much!”
Luo Cheng looked at Wu Qinghe and then at the others.
The weather was indeed a little hot.
Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t you guys rest for a while and return to the village to wait for us?!”
As soon as he said this, everyone shook their heads.
Luo Cheng said, “In that case, let’s find a shady place to rest first! Then, we’ll think about what to do next!”
Speaking of which, the group was quite lucky. Soon, they found a shady place and everyone sat down to rest.
When Third Master Xue felt the cool breeze, he said in satisfaction, “The breeze is so cool. There was no wind at all when we were climbing the mountain just now!”
“That’s right. If there’s no wind on this day, we’ll really die from the heat!” Wu Qinghe echoed.
Li Xiaoran thought of something and looked at the brown tree not far away.
“Look, there’s a brown tree over there. Why don’t we cut the leaves to make fans?!”
The others looked in the direction Li Xiaoran was pointing. There were indeed several lush brown trees.
“I’ll go cut it!” Shu Ruyue was a person of action, so she quickly pulled out her dagger and walked towards the brown tree.
Seeing this, the others followed suit.
Soon, a pile of leaves from the brown tree was brought back.
Luo Ziyang thought of something and asked, “How do we make leaves into a fan?”
Li Xiaoqing said, “My sister and I both know how to!”
Li Xiaoran nodded. Then, the sisters took the leaves of the brown trees and taught everyone how to make fans.
It had to be said that making a fan was very simple. They didn’t have to make it too exquisitely. It was fine as long as they were able to use it.
Soon, everyone had a fan in their hands. It was very cooling.
“Luo Cheng, why did we come up the mountain this time?” Third Master Xue asked as he fanned himself.
Luo Cheng smiled when he heard his uncle’s question.
“I’m just a herb gatherer, so I pick gra.s.ses wherever I go! If we don’t go up the mountain, we can’t possibly stay at the village chief’s house in Daxing Village!”
Although Third Master Xue felt that his nephew wasn’t telling the truth, he was very tactful and didn’t ask further.
Li Xiaoran had an idea because she saw the two people who had been brought to the mountain to look for gold and silver mines last time.
Li Xiaoran had some guesses about Luo Cheng’s goal.
Actually, Luo Cheng had only brought people up to take a look. There was a mountain here, so it wasn’t difficult to come and take a look. Besides, some of his herbs had indeed been exhausted, so he had to go up the mountain to pick some to replenish his supply.
He had already picked all the herbs he could in Hele Village. The remaining herb seedlings would have to grow for several years before they could be used as medicine. Therefore, if he wanted to pick the same herb, he had to find it elsewhere!
At this moment, they happened to be in Daxing Village. If they had the chance to enter the mountain, they could look for herbs and see if there were any gold mines.
It could be said that their main goal was picking herbs, while finding gold and silver mines was just a matter of convenience.
After the group found a lot of herbs, the two people Luo Cheng had brought also made a discovery.
While no one was paying attention, the two of them found Luo Cheng and told him what they had discovered.
One of the men with a mole on his chin said, “Mr. Luo, according to the current terrain, fengshui, and the growth of the plants on it, there should be a mine here! As for whether it’s a gold or silver mine, we won’t know until we mine it!” The other skinny old man nodded.
“Mr. Luo, with our many years of experience, there’s definitely a mine here, but we can’t tell how big it is!”
Luo Cheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
When they went to Shatai Village, they looked for mines, but they couldn’t find one.
This time, they were here to dig for herbs, but they actually found a mine!
Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “Alright, I understand. Don’t tell anyone yet. Take a closer look later and confirm the location. We’ll talk about this after we figure out the situation here!”
Li Xiaoran naturally sensed the emotions of the people here. Then, she heard an inner voice.
“Hmph, does Luo Cheng really think we’re here to help him find mines? How ridiculous. When we go down the mountain and report the news to our lord, we’ll have made a great contribution! At that time, it won’t be difficult for us to get promoted and become rich!”
Li Xiaoran immediately turned around and realized that this voice was coming from the skinny old man’s mind.
The smile on her face turned cold as Li Xiaoran walked towards Luo Cheng.
“Husband, come and take a look. Is this the herb you want to pick?” When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s voice, he quickly walked over.
“Eh, this is actually a very rare herb!” Luo Cheng said in surprise.
“What herbs are these? Husband, introduce them to me!” Li Xiaoran held Luo Cheng’s hand and clung to him..
