Chapter 26 My name is Lin Yanran
Chapter 26 My name is Lin Yanran
Yunyi didn't go too far on her two previous trips up the mountain. Today, she plans to venture deeper into the mountains to explore, as there are more hidden gems to be found in these remote places.
Qinglong Mountain is indeed steep. Moreover, after crossing the place we passed before, we had to stop after climbing over another mountain. This was because the other side of the mountain was not a slope, but a canyon formed by a cliff. We could not see the bottom from above, and we could not estimate its length. However, we could see the opposite bank, which was estimated to be about 40 or 50 meters wide. To get over it, we had to go down to the bottom and then climb up again.
However, the situation below the valley was unclear, and without any measures, it was difficult to handle. So they simply gave up and instead searched for some relatively precious medicinal herbs. They went to check the trap again and found something inside. Not only were there dead pheasants and rabbits, but there was also a live little white fox, but it was probably injured in the leg and could not escape.
The pheasant next to it had been half eaten.
Yunyi jumped down.
When the little white fox saw Yunyi, it flinched, but because its leg was injured, it only whimpered twice before lying down on the ground.
"You're quite well-behaved." Yunyi picked up the little guy and then flipped him out of the trap. "You're so well-behaved, I don't even have the heart to skin you."
The little fox seemed to understand Yunyi's words and trembled again in fright.
Yunyi took out some medicine to bandage it, then actually released it. She then turned and left with two rabbits and a pheasant, leaving the remaining half for the little fox's dinner.
The little fox watched Yunyi's retreating figure, hesitated for a moment, then dragged half a pheasant and limped into the bushes.
"Boss, you're being soft-hearted! That little white fox's fur is very valuable." Sixteen suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Yunyi rolled her eyes at it, said nothing, and quickened her pace toward the foot of the mountain. Of course, she was heading toward the town. She needed to sell the medicinal herbs she had brought back as soon as possible. Although they might be more expensive if she processed them back home, she didn't have the means to do so now. She would wait until the new house was built.
The reason she released the fox was that she had been a fox spirit ninety-nine times in the Three Thousand Minor Worlds, and once she was the fox spirit of the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms and Eight Desolations. Looking at this little fox was like looking at her disciple and grand-disciple, and she couldn't bear to do it. Besides, she wasn't short of money now.
There's no need to explain these things to a bunch of data like 16.
Sixteen didn't care that Yunyi ignored it, because it was used to it. After all, when they first bound themselves, it had also been indifferent to its host in order to control her. But not long after, the host trained herself to be incredibly powerful and started to ignore it. So, it really got used to it.
Oh dear, even if money isn't an issue, that fur would make a beautiful fur collar.
Boss, you...
After chattering for a while, it realized it had been blocked by the other party again, so it could only shut up in frustration. Then it stopped following and went straight back to the village. The kids were still good to it, especially Sibao, who saved the best food for it.
After arriving in town, Yunyi went directly to Xue's Medical Clinic.
"It's you, sister." Xue Xiaodie recognized Yun Yi at a glance and hurriedly greeted her with a smile. "I'll go call Grandpa; he's making medicine in the backyard."
Yunyi nodded and took the basket off her back.
"It's you." Just then, a woman in red walked in from outside, carrying a food box in her hand. She was the same woman who had sought medical treatment for her brother earlier.
"Hello." Yunyi nodded. "How is your brother?"
“Dr. Xue said that the danger period has passed, and…” Lin Yanran paused for a moment, “Fortunately, you brought the ginseng and the poisonous snake that day.”
"Ok?"
“My brother was not only injured but also poisoned. The venom of the mountain wind is one of the antidotes.” Lin Yanran lowered her voice, but it was clear that she was still a little scared. “Without the antidote, even if the external injuries are healed, he won’t live more than three days.”
"That means your older brother is very lucky."
"Anyway, thank you. By the way, I don't know your name. My name is Lin Yanran, and I just turned 18 last month."
"My name is Yunyi, and I will be of marriageable age next year."
"Then I'm the older sister, I'll call you younger sister from now on."
Yunyi smiled noncommittally.
Just then, Xue Buwei rushed out: "Miss, you've arrived. What good stuff have you brought this time?"
"It's just some herbs." Yunyi placed the basket on the counter. "I don't have time to process them. You can give me a price."
"Let's go to the backyard." Xue Buwei nodded, then glanced at Lin Yanran beside him. "Your older brother has passed the critical period and can go back today. As long as he is well taken care of, there will be no problem."
"Thank you, Dr. Xue." Upon hearing this, Lin Yanran rushed inside without even saying goodbye to Yun Yi.
Yunyi followed Xue Buwei to the backyard and spread the herbs from the basket on her back into a wicker basket.
"This..." Xue Buwei pointed to a he shou wu (Polygonum multiflorum) inside, his expression complicated, "You just threw this thing in there like that?"
"Then what more do you want?" Yunyi glanced at it. "It's only fifty years."
Xue Buwei's lips twitched, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. He could only silently place the item in a separate basket next to him before starting to check the rest. In the end, he paid 800 coins for the herbs and 50 taels for the He Shou Wu: "If this is sent to the capital..."
“Okay.” Yunyi hurriedly interrupted him, thinking to herself that if she wanted to send it to the capital, she wouldn’t have come here. The old man is really long-winded.
Xue Buwei quickly shut his mouth and then had Xiaodie bring out fifty taels and eight coins of silver.
"Dr. Xue, I don't want the money, but I'd like to exchange it for something."
"what?"
"Silver needles".
"Ok?"
"I want a set of silver acupuncture needles, or a set of gold needles if you have those."
"you……"
"I have medical skills."
“I have silver needles on hand, but gold needles…” Xue Buwei shook his head. “I only have one set here, which I use myself. If you want one and trust me, I can order a set for you, but that will take some time.”
“Okay.” Yunyi nodded. She had brought a few embroidery needles with her, but embroidery needles could not compare to real acupuncture needles.
“But a set of silver needles costs ten taels of silver, and a set of gold needles is more expensive, but it only costs twenty taels.” Xue Buwei left thirty taels. “Come back in about half a month.”
At this moment, Xiaodie had already brought over a cloth bag.
Yunyi opened it and her eyes lit up; it contained a complete set of items.
