2553 Chapter 2553 fine-leaf red-thread gra.s.s
Yun chujiu squatted there and slowly dug up the herbs. Other people dug up three, but she couldn’t even dig up one.
While this guy was dawdling, a student walked over from the distant herbal field. It was Zhu Jingtong. Zhu Jingtong said to Yun Chujiu in a bad mood, “Teacher Wen wants you to go over and help him pick the fine-leaf red-thread gra.s.s. Let’s Go!”
Yun Chujiu was really unwilling to go. Picking the fine-leaf red thread gra.s.s took a lot of effort and required a lot of patience.
The only part of the fine-leaf red thread gra.s.s that could be used was the red thread vein inside the leaf. When picking, she had to carefully remove the vein from the leaf.
If someone else came to call her, she could still ask for the reason, but this Zhu Jingtong hated her to death and could not get anything out of her.
Yun chujiu could only stand up and follow Zhu Jingtong to the medicinal field where the fine-leaf red thread gra.s.s was planted.
After arriving at the medicinal field of the fine-leaf red thread gra.s.s.., teacher Wen smiled and said, “Little girl, why aren’t you willing to help? Don’t worry, after these fine-leaf red thread gra.s.s are plucked, I will give you two some pills that I have refined. I Won’t let you work in vain.”
What Else Could Yun chujiu say? Could it be that she didn’t want any lousy pills and just wanted to slack off?
Therefore, she and Zhu Jingtong could only bitterly start to pick the fine-leaf red silk gra.s.s.
The students in the other medicinal fields had already finished their work early. Only she and Zhu Jingtong were still bitterly continuing to pick. She really wanted to ask teacher Wen, why couldn’t they find more students? He had to let her and Zhu Jingtong pick the herbs.
Teacher Wen seemed to see through Yun Chujiu’s question, he smiled and said, “This fine-leaf red silk gra.s.s is very delicate. I don’t trust ordinary people. Zhu Jingtong’s alchemy results have always been good. As for you, you are bold and careful. You are the most suitable for this kind of work.”
Yun Chujiu’s heart was like a beeping dog. What BULLSH * t reason! When had she sinned against this teacher Wen? So she deliberately made fun of her?
It was not until the sky gradually turned dark that the two of them finally finished picking this fine-leafed red silk gra.s.s.
Teacher Wen praised the two of them a few times, then said, “You have performed well. Let’s go to my courtyard. I will personally give you some pointers.”
Zhu Jingtong’s face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. Yun chujiu could only pretend to be pleasantly surprised. However, in her heart, this fellow was thinking, “Give me some pointers?”? ! I just want to go back and have dinner, Alright?
The three of them left the herbal field. After walking for about an hour, they finally arrived in front of a courtyard.
Yun Chujiu silently cursed in her heart. As expected of the Chief Instructor of the Alchemy Department. This courtyard was really big.
Teacher Wen brought the two of them into the courtyard and directly went to the alchemy room in the courtyard.
The alchemy room was very s.p.a.cious. The operating table was connected to the earth fire, and there were a few bottles and jars placed on the shelves around it.
Yun chujiu was curiously sizing them up when she felt her hair stand on end. Her heart tightened and she subconsciously dodged to the side. Another gust of wind blew over. Yun chujiu jumped to the side again and dodged the attack.
She focused her eyes and saw that the gentle smile on teacher Wen’s face had long changed into a sinister sneer. Zhu Jingtong was even more ferocious.
“Teacher Wen, what do you mean by this?”Yun chujiu wanted to divert his attention and seize the opportunity to rush out of the door.
Teacher Wen laughed sinisterly, “What do you mean? Of course I want your life! Don’t think about rus.h.i.+ng out of the door. I have already set up a formation in this alchemy room. You can’t escape. If you don’t believe me, you can try.”
As teacher Wen spoke, he directly gave up the position at the door. After Yun Chujiu jumped over, she realized that there was an invisible barrier blocking her way. There was no way to escape.
