"No?"
Wu Chen was not very surprised. Fire Dragon Grass, Hai Liqiu and Fan Yunxing were difficult to find, especially the Fire Dragon Grass, which required very harsh conditions. He was not even sure whether such a thing really existed in the Tianwu Continent.
"No, what can I do?"
Yu Jiaorong became worried. Wu Chen was now her mother's attending physician. They would unconditionally meet any request he made, because all of them were closely related to her mother's illness. However, now they could not find the medicinal materials he needed. Doesn't that mean that her mother's illness could not be cured
"Young man, take a look. Are these three herbs indispensable? Can other herbs be used instead?"
The Great Elder was also in a difficult situation, as these three medicinal herbs were not available in the treasury of their mermaid tribe. Moreover, even in the surrounding areas, there seemed to be no place that could have these things.
"Well, let me think about it."
Wu Chen fell into deep thought. Yu Jiaorong and the Great Elder both looked at him without disturbing him. Wu Chen was extremely important to their mermaid tribe because he was the hope for saving Yu Wushuang.
After a while, Wu Chen said, "Hai Likui and Fan Yunxing, these two things can be replaced."
"What?"
The two were extremely surprised. With a substitute, the situation would be relatively easy.
Wu Chen said: "You can use Liuxing Fruit and Yunhaisheng to replace these two things. I wonder if you can get these Liuxing Fruit and Yunhaisheng?"
Liuxing fruit and Yunhaisheng? wavv
Yu Jiaorong was very unfamiliar with these two terms. She had never heard of them before and didn't know what they were.
However, the Great Elder was pleasantly surprised. Seeing this, Wu Chen said, "Seeing you are so happy, there must be one."
"Yes." The Great Elder nodded and said, "Young man, these two kinds of medicinal herbs are available in our mermaid tribe's treasury."
"That's good. That's good."
It would be much easier if you have the materials. For alchemists, the most taboo thing is the lack of medicinal materials. Without them, no matter who it is, no one can make pills. This is beyond doubt. Even if he is the God of Alchemy, it is no exception.
"Where is the Fire Dragon Grass, Wu Chen, is there anything that can replace it?" Yu Jiaorong asked again.
"Fire dragon grass?"
Wu Chen fell into deep thought, his brows furrowed. This Fire Dragon Grass was the most important ingredient in his prescription. He searched his memory, but it seemed that nothing could replace it.
"No, nothing can replace it." Wu Chen couldn't help but shook his head.
“There is nothing that can replace it, so what should I do?”
Yu Jiaorong's face was filled with disappointment. The hope that she had finally ignited was extinguished just like that.
Wu Chen shrugged. Since there were no medicinal herbs, even he could do nothing. A skilled cook cannot cook without rice. No one can create something out of nothing.
"Hey, wait a minute."
Suddenly, the Great Elder seemed to have thought of something.
"Great Elder, you?"
Wu Chen and Yu Jiaorong both looked at her with some curiosity.
The Great Elder said: "I think I know where the Fire Dragon Grass is."
"Really? Great Elder, please tell me where we can find Fire Dragon Grass?"
Yu Jiaorong was extremely happy. The words of the Great Elder were undoubtedly a life-saving straw in their despair.
Wu Chen was the same, very surprised. Fire Dragon Grass was something very difficult to find. He originally thought that, let alone the East China Sea, even the entire East Xuan Territory, or even the entire Tianwu Continent, might not have such a thing.
However, now after hearing what the Great Elder said, it seemed that this kind of thing could really be found. He really wanted to see where such a good thing could grow.
"That place, no, it shouldn't be there."
The Great Elder fell into deep thought.
Yu Jiaorong was impatient and asked, "Grand Elder, what place are you talking about? Tell me quickly."
Now, the only medicinal herb Wu Chen needs is the Fire Dragon Grass. As long as she can find the Fire Dragon Grass, then her mother's illness will be cured.
The great elder looked at them and said slowly: "The place I'm talking about is actually related to our mermaid tribe. It is a major forbidden area for our mermaid tribe."
"The forbidden area of the mermaid tribe? What does the great elder mean?"
Yu Jiaorong's face changed drastically, she turned pale with horror, and even her body couldn't help but tremble.
"What place are you talking about?"
Wu Chen was very curious. The Fire Dragon Grass had extremely harsh growing conditions and could only be found in extremely yang and extremely strong places. However, according to the Great Elder, it seemed that there was such a thing under the sea. How was this possible? How could there be an extremely yang and extremely strong place under the sea
After a while, the great elder said, "Young man, to be honest, there is a forbidden area about fifty miles northwest of our mermaid tribe's heartland. Once our mermaids enter, it will be difficult for them to survive."
"Forbidden area?"
The elder nodded and said, "Yes, that place has consumed countless lives of our mermaids. Therefore, about a hundred years ago, the leader of our mermaid tribe designated that place as a forbidden area and strictly prohibited our mermaids from entering."
"Since it is a forbidden area and no one is allowed to enter, then how do you know that there might be fire dragon grass there?" Wu Chen was very curious.
The great elder said, "That's because our mermaid tribe's documents record that there is a fire dragon grass growing there. If no one went in to pick it, the fire dragon grass should still be there."
Wu Chen frowned. The lifespan of Fire Dragon Grass is quite long. It can survive for hundreds of years without any problem. He has even seen Fire Dragon Grass that is thousands of years old.
However, a hundred years have passed, and whether the fire dragon grass is still there is a huge question. What if someone went in and picked it? That is very likely.
What's more, he was even more curious about why there was fire dragon grass in this place of the mermaids. This kind of plant can only grow in the most yang and strong places. Here is in the deep sea and does not meet the basic conditions at all.
"Young man, look at this?"
The Great Elder was a little hesitant. After all, that place was a forbidden area for their mermaid tribe. Once they broke in, they would most likely not be able to get out.
Wu Chen said: "Fire Dragon Grass is indispensable. If that place really exists, it wouldn't hurt to go there."
The Great Elder looked at him. Wu Chen was not a member of their mermaid tribe. If he went in, he might be safe. However, if he went in alone and something went wrong and he died, what would others say about their mermaid tribe? How would they explain to Beichen Academy
