Before dark, Xiaodong went to the medicine garden again to see the freshly planted green grass. In fact, he didn't even need to look at the mark he set when he left. These green grasses have all been raised, and now the shortest ones are about three inches tall, and the leaves have grown out, the leaves are as big as finger belly, and they are shiny green. , It is indeed a green oil grass.
And in this piece of fresh green, only the few trees planted by Mo Chen haven't sprouted yet.
"I really planted this?" Xiaodong gradually began to feel some taste: "Then can I grow so long?"
Mo Chen silently took out a bag of seeds and gave it to him.
These seeds come in all shapes and sizes, from the largest being the size of a walnut to the smallest... er, tiny ones that are almost invisible. It's about the size of a sesame seed, with hundreds of seeds inside. Some are as hard as a layer of copper covering the outside, and some are soft as a ball of catkins.
"Try them all."
If he grows all these, this matter will be certain.
But this time it was not planted in the medicine garden, but a small piece of land pointed out by the elder brother Shan behind the medicine garden. It is said to be a small area, but the place is not small.
Xiaodong looked at these strange seeds with a dazed face: "These... are the different methods?"
"You just grow what you grow."
Eldest brother has said so, what else can he say
Xiaodong used the simplest method, digging a small hole with a medicine shovel, buried the seeds in it, and poured a ladle of water on his head. There are dozens of seeds in a bag, and it doesn't take much effort to plant them all.
After tossing and tossing for a long time, he didn't feel hungry. Mo Chen handed him a piece of pancake, which was the handicraft of a disciple of Tianji Mountain—er, before this person became a teacher, his family made a living selling pancakes. This cake is willing to use oil and salt, and after it is baked, it is cut open at one end, stuffed with bean curds, vegetables and bacon, and it is especially delicious when eaten while it is hot. Even if it is cold now, the taste is not bad. The disciples of Tianji Mountain used to bring these cakes to make dry food. Now that they don't need to eat the cakes when they go to Huiliu Mountain, they put them in the kitchen with other things they brought.
"This cake is delicious." Xiaodong handed it to Mo Chen first, but Mo Chen didn't eat it, so he opened his mouth and took a big bite, and said vaguely: "Master Hu and these apprentices really... have their own strengths."
It's hard for him to come up with such a good word to describe it.
Mo Chen also nodded with a smile.
It is true that each has its own strengths, but most of the strengths are worthless in the eyes of the world. Those who love to paint, those who love to play the piano, and those who love to cook and make cakes. On the contrary, they lived their little life quite leisurely, and it was okay when they had nothing to do, but when something happened, they couldn't use any energy to fight and fight.
But is it their fault
Most of them are the same as Hu Zhenren, indifferent and disregarding fame, fortune and power. But Tianji Mountain can't tolerate them living in peace with the world.
Everyone has their own way of life. There are no two identical people in this world. Even brothers are completely different, and each person has a different path to take. Mo Chen has no intention of pointing out others' choices, in his opinion, as long as it's not a path that hurts nature and reason and harms others, then it's okay to go.
A piece of pie is bigger than a palm, and I ate it in a few mouthfuls when I was really hungry.
While he was eating the cake, green shoots had sprouted in several places where the herbs had just been planted.
The first time it was born, the second time it was ripe, Xiaodong will not make a fuss now, and calmly watches these seeds sprout one after another. Some are faster, some are slower. The speed should not have much to do with him, because the seeds are different.
"Eldest brother, are these seeds... some not so easy to plant?"
"Most of them are difficult to grow, some are difficult to germinate, and some are difficult to feed even if they germinate." Mo Chen pointed to a seedling that was closer to them: "This is burning tobacco, it grows naturally, it is very Few people can grow it... As far as I know, there hasn't been one who has been able to grow it in the past hundred years."
Xiaodong looked at the newly sprouted Miao Miao, he really didn't expect this grass to have such a background.
No matter how you look at it, this seedling is not very rare. Compared with the one next to it, it is obviously shorter, thin and weak, and the greenness is only so faint, as if it has not eaten enough.
"The real seed has become..."
Mo Chen didn't continue to talk about what would happen if the true seed was grown, but Xiaodong was no longer so confused, and vaguely understood.
Since it is so difficult to grow, and many people have put in a lot of effort to try it, then the usefulness of this grass must be very important. If Huiliu Mountain has this, it will definitely be of great help to the master and the brothers.
But now it's just growing out, and it's not sure what will happen after it finally grows up. If the light will be raised and there is no medicinal effect, then it is useless.
"Brother, give me all the seeds you have left, and I will plant them all!"
Mo Chen looked at the way his eyes were shining, like a little miser seeing Jinshan.
He couldn't hold back, and reached out to pat Xiaodong's head: "Okay, this is not a matter of a day or two, forget what I said?"
Xiaodong recalled vigorously, and after a while he tentatively said, "In the future... Fang Chang?"
"Well, that's right. You have to carefully consider whether planting this will hinder you. Fat people don't grow out of eating in a day. How can you be so anxious when doing things."
Xiaodong sneered: "No hurry, no hurry."
He wasn't in a hurry for himself, but... he just thought of Senior Brother Zhai and Senior Sister Linglong who had no news of him now, and all the calculations and difficulties they had encountered in the past two years.
If they hold rare and good things in their hands, they will have the confidence. At that time, whoever wants to bully them will not be able to bully them.
How could Mo Chen not understand his impatience
The situation in Huiliu Mountain will only get worse in the future. Originally, they were in a corner, unknown, and there were people from the magic way who sneaked into the sect with evil intentions. At that time, they still had Tianji Mountain as a helping hand. Now Tianji Mountain... there is no hope, because Hu Zhenren and the others are here, and they may become enemies in the future. And enemies like Bixia Villa will let them go lightly in the future? Not to mention that if the secrets about him and Xiaodong are known, Huiliu Mountain will only become the target of public criticism, and the whole world will be their enemies.
But they don't flinch from it either.
There are thousands of difficulties and dangers ahead, and they have to move forward.
Xiaodong wished he could stay in the medicine garden and keep an eye on him all the time, but it was Mo Chen who dragged him away. Green oil grass itself grows fast, come back on the third day, and this batch of green oil grass can be harvested.
Just by looking at the appearance, you can tell that this batch of medicinal herbs is not wrong. The grass leaves are like a layer of wax jelly, and the green ones are dripping with oil.
In the past two days, apart from settling the disciples of Tianji Mountain, there is one more thing to prepare.
Master is going to marry Ji Zhenzhen. (to be continued)
