She climbed down from the tree, walked to the spiritual spring, scooped some spiritual water to water the tree, told Lao Bai to keep an eye on it, and then came to the Fire Phoenix. Seeing that it was still motionless inside, she couldn't help but feel strange.
"Why does it take so long this time? Is it about to break through and enter adulthood?" Thinking of this possibility, and seeing that there was nothing abnormal about the Fire Phoenix in the sleeping state, he flashed out of the space.
Sitting by the spring, she stretched out her hand to play with the spring water beside her. Her slender white fingers gently stroked the water surface, watching the ripples spread out and then return to normal.
After playing for a while, she gathered her thoughts and walked back into the forest. She had been chased by the snake king since yesterday and had not been able to find the elixir properly, which wasted a lot of time, and she had also run so far.
She was currently researching an elixir, but was short of two herbs. She planned to look for them in the forest and then go back to the cave to refine them. She did not plan to train herself in the Hell Mountains this time. Her purpose of coming here was to train with them. After a year, she would go to the First Class Country.
"Most golden lanterns grow in rugged terrain, often between mountain walls, but bamboo orchids prefer humid places, so they should be found in this forest."
She murmured as she walked. In this area, there were no poisonous snakes chasing her, no independent cultivators trying to kill her, and no evil spirits lurking around. Therefore, she slowed down her pace and carefully searched for the bamboo orchid in the surrounding area.
She didn't take much care of her space, and most of the medicinal herbs planted in it were precious and rare. She had never planted some medicinal herbs that were not considered rare.
Firstly, I originally thought that it would be convenient to buy them if needed. Secondly, I couldn't manage so many spiritual medicines in the space, so it would be enough to plant some rare ones. If there were other things missing, I could get them by other methods.
However, this means she is just like she is now, if she is missing one or two spiritual herbs, she has to spend time looking for them. Fortunately, these two spiritual herbs are not difficult to find.
After walking in the forest for about an hour, I found the bamboo orchid in the weeds under a big wet tree. The bamboo orchid looked like a wild flower in the forest, with three small purple flowers, and its rhizomes were like bamboos with a few leaves hanging down, which was not very noticeable in the weeds.
If someone who doesn't know the value of it, they would think it is a wild flower, but someone who is well versed in medicine can tell at a glance that it is a bamboo orchid, which can be used as medicine in several elixirs with miraculous effects.
A good elixir must be complete, so one must be very careful when picking it, especially for a plant like the bamboo orchid, which has thin roots that go deep into the soil. If one accidentally breaks the roots, the medicinal strength will be reduced and the efficacy will be greatly compromised.
Therefore, after discovering this bamboo orchid, Fengjiu squatted under the tree and dug slowly, removing the soil bit by bit, carefully exposing every root completely.
After an incense stick of time, she dug out the bamboo orchid, took it in her hand and looked at it, feeling very satisfied: "Not bad, a bamboo orchid like this is nearly a hundred years old. I think it will be very effective if used as medicine."
