Siheyuan: The Idiot in Charge

Chapter 540: Three Visits to Changbai Mountain

"Guangming went to school!"

Speaking of Zheng Guangming, a smile appeared on Zheng's mother's face again.

Nowadays, whether it is biological or adopted children, parents have similar ideas.

Daughters will eventually get married, and sons are the ones who can take care of you in your old age.

Jia Weidong and Zheng's mother chatted casually, and after a while, Zheng Guangming came back with a schoolbag on his back.

After not seeing him for a few years, Zheng Guangming is no longer the blind kid he used to be.

He has grown a lot in height, almost 160 cm, his eyes are bright, and fine hair is beginning to grow on his mouth.

You'll be an adult soon.

Looks healthy and energetic.

As soon as he saw Jia Weidong, Zheng Guangming called him "brother-in-law, brother-in-law" in a very intimate manner.

So happy!

After dinner, I chatted with the mother and son for a while and then went to rest.

The next morning.

The loud crowing of cocks echoed throughout the alley.

After being treated by Jia Weidong, Zheng's mother's body became strong and healthy, and she didn't look like a person over 60 at all.

After finishing the work assigned by the street office in the morning, I made matchboxes at home during the day and raised a few chickens in the yard.

After getting up, Jia Weidong practiced boxing in the yard.

Seeing Jia Weidong playing vigorously, Zheng Guangming was extremely jealous.

As soon as Jia Weidong stopped, he came up to him: "Brother-in-law! I want to learn too!"

Jia Weidong touched his head and asked, "Guangming! Why do you want to learn boxing?"

Zheng Guangming replied without hesitation: “Great at fighting!”

Nowadays, especially in Northeast China, there is no such thing as a naughty kid who doesn't fight.

Jia Weidong asked: "What happened? Were you bullied at school?"

"No! No!" Zheng Guangming's eyes were evasive.

Jia Weidong knew that the kid was not telling the truth.

I think he was bullied at school, or had been bullied before.

As an orphan and a widow with no one to rely on, it was normal for Zheng Guangming to be bullied by children of the same age.

Jia Weidong said seriously: "Guangming! You can learn boxing, but you must promise to only use it when others bully you. You will not take the initiative to bully others. Can you do it?"

Zheng Guangming lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked up at Jia Weidong and said firmly, "Yes! I won't bully others!"

"That's great! Come! I'll teach you!"

As Jia Weidong spoke, he started to practice Tai Chi.

Zheng Guangming also followed Jia Weidong's example and learned every move.

Although he was young and his body had not yet hardened, Zheng Guangming learned some difficult moves quite quickly.

Zheng Guangming really has some talent for martial arts.

Jia Weidong taught patiently three times.

He performed Tai Chi quite well.

After having breakfast.

Zheng Guangming went to school, and Jia Weidong also said goodbye to Zheng's mother, and left Guangming Hutong with Zheng's mother's reluctant gaze.

This time he did not go to find Tian Tiejun, but chose to go into Changbai Mountain alone.

It's approaching noon.

Jia Weidong rushed to the foot of Changbai Mountain.

Look up.

At noon in early autumn, the sun gently penetrates the thin clouds, sprinkles on the rolling mountains, and gives each peak a layer of golden glow.

The breeze from the mountains brings a bit of coolness and freshness, and the leaves sway gently in the breeze, like the most melodious music of nature.

The outline of the mountains in the distance appears particularly clear and profound against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds, like an exquisite yet vivid ink painting slowly unfolding between heaven and earth.

Quiet and poetic.

Fascinating.

This is not the first time Jia Weidong has come to Changbai Mountain.

But every time he looks at it from a distance, the scenery of Changbai Mountain gives Jia Weidong a different feeling.

After parking the jeep, Jia Weidong walked up the mountain at a leisurely pace while admiring the scenery.

His figure soon blended into the vast mountains.

The mountains are much more dangerous in late summer and early autumn than in winter.

If you're not careful, a poisonous snake or insect might emerge from the grass.

If you get bitten, you'll lose half your life even if you don't die.

When a person goes into the mountains, he relies on his comprehensive ability. But it does not mean that Jia Weidong does not care about his life.

After entering the mountain, he began to focus his mind and explore carefully.

This time he was not hunting, so he walked slowly.

He did not leave out any trees or bushes.

After searching for an afternoon, I actually found a useful auxiliary medicine - cloud shadow flower.

Jia Weidong specially opened up a medicinal field in the space and planted the cloud shadow flowers in it.

In addition to the four main ingredients of Tianxing Fruit, Blood Ginseng, Ganoderma Lucidum, and Immortal Grass, the Tempering Body Powder also contains more than a dozen other compresses, including Phoenix Tail Grass, Panax Notoginseng, Pollen Typha, Cirsium, Bone-penetrating Grass, Cloud Shadow Flower, and Chuanxiong.

And each realm is different.

For example, tortoise shell powder is added to refine the skin, and tiger bone powder is added to refine the bones.

Cloud Shadow Flower does not require just one plant, but Jia Weidong can cultivate it slowly.

After the sun goes down.

Jia Weidong entered the space directly.

Searching for medicinal herbs didn't consume much physical strength, but it consumed a lot of mental strength, so he needed to rest.

the next day.

Jia Weidong got up on time.

After a night's rest, he was full of energy and refreshed.

After making a simple breakfast and filling his stomach, Jia Weidong left the space.

Continue to advance deeper into the mountains.

As Jia Weidong went deeper and deeper, the mountain became steeper and the terrain more complex.

The trees and bushes are becoming increasingly dense.

The speed of advancement also became slower and slower.

Along the way, they found many little rabbits and squirrels, but Jia Weidong didn't touch any of them.

Let them all go.

He has no shortage of meat now.

It’s not a particularly rare thing, and Jia Weidong no longer cares about it.

There are abundant medicinal herbs in Changbai Mountain, but they are small in size, so it is not easy to find the ones that are useful to you.

The sun was almost at noon and half a day had passed, but Jia Weidong had only managed to find two plants.

The main medicinal material is the blood ginseng.

An auxiliary medicine, Pteris cretica.

After a simple lunch, Jia Weidong continued his journey to find medicine.

"The herb of immortality! There is more than one plant, and we got a main ingredient!"

Jia Weidong collected a few stalks of immortal grass, his face full of joy.

"continue!…"

"Phoenix tail grass!"

"continue…"

……

He was like a humanoid robot, running around in the mountains tirelessly.

The harvest in the afternoon was pretty good, with one main herb and two auxiliary herb plants.

Rest and continue the next day.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

As time passed, Jia Weidong began to enter the depths of the mountains where few people had been.

On the afternoon of the third day, Jia Weidong climbed to the top of a mountain and found a large canyon below.

The canyon is full of lush vegetation and greenery.

"Such a good place will definitely not disappoint me, right?"

Jia Weidong's heart was full of hope.

After walking less than a hundred meters, Jia Weidong found several plants of Psoralea corylifolia.

"Another auxiliary medicine is in hand!"

continue!

"Puhuang!"

After walking just a few steps, he unexpectedly reaped some rewards. Jia Weidong seemed to have seen the hope of collecting all the medicinal herbs.

Just as he squatted down with joy and prepared to pull out the pollen by the roots with a shovel in hand, his heart suddenly trembled and he felt like a thorn in his back.

He seemed to be targeted by some unknown creature!

"what?"

While feeling a little scared, Jia Weidong also looked behind him.
