Chapter 4 - 4. Going down the mountain to collect herbs is also a form of spiritual practice

"elder brother..."

"Hui Yuan Dan, Zhixue San, Juling Dan... Oh, remember to take Juling Dan only when it's critical. It's a life-threatening measure. You'll be weak for a few hours after taking it. I've made a lot of pills for you over the past month!"

"Brother…"

"Have you packed all your spare clothes? Are you sure you have all your money? Don't show off your wealth. Remember not to leave your purse on the table. Bring an oil-paper umbrella and... some extra shoes. The shoes from this store are very sturdy and comfortable to wear."

"elder brother!"

"Brother!"

The brother and sister's shouting interrupted Ye Xinhai's nonstop chatter. He was surprised by the two people's strange behavior and said, "Why are you so loud? I'm not hard of hearing."

"Brother, we are not kids going on a spring outing, there is no need for you to stuff so many things into us, right?" Ye Xinxi kicked the bag that was almost half her height and blamed him.

"Tsk, you don't understand? This is called being prepared for any eventuality. What if there's a need?"

Ye Xinhai, with a motherly look on his face, waved his hands, seemingly not caring about his sister's blame.

"Brother, you are exactly the same as my second uncle now. I will definitely not bring so much luggage, but I can bring more pills." Ye Xinhe took out most of the things in the bag and threw them in front of his brother with a firm attitude.

Ah... déjà vu... this déjà vu...

For a moment, Ye Xinhai thought of the past: when he first reported to university, his father also threw two big bags at him and told him in detail what he should pay attention to when living alone in university.

Back then, I also refused most of the luggage like my younger brothers and sisters.

"Dad, will you laugh at me now when you see me like this?"

Ye Xinhai teased himself in his heart, and his attitude softened a bit: "You should still bring the shoes, they are all in your size. After all, you have to rely on your feet to travel, and the shoes in the roadside shops may not fit your feet..."

Seeing their brother's sincere attitude, Ye Xinhe and Ye Xinxi looked at each other, and the elder sister took the lead in shouldering all the burdens and said, "Thank you, brother. I'll bring you something delicious when I come back!"

After saying that, he caught up with the large group that was about to leave the sect.

Ye Xinhai's eyes fell on his brother. His sister had compromised. Although Ye Xinhe, who had always been sensible, had some complaints, he took away all the bags thrown at Ye Xinhai's feet and murmured, "Thank you, brother..."

After saying that, he took just two steps and turned back, hugged his brother tightly, and then ran away without looking back.

As the two of them left, Ye Xinhai felt a sense of loneliness. He scratched his head and watched the training team go away. He silently said, "Be safe," and turned to leave...

On Wufeng Mountain, today's alchemy class is proceeding as usual.

Song Qingxue looked at Ye Xinhai with satisfaction as he returned to the alchemy room after seeing him off, and suddenly clapped her hands together.

"Okay, Xiao Xinhai, you are becoming more and more proficient in mastering Dan Huo! Master, I am really happy."

It's over... As soon as he heard the master calling him Xiao Xinhai, he knew that something bad was going to happen.

"Um... So, Master, what tricks have you come up with to torture me?"

"Too much... You are really too much, Xiao Xinhai. What do you mean by 'torture'? Xiao Wucao has his own pill recipe to try. Your teacher is giving you a special lesson now!"

Is it personal teaching? Since Ye Xinhai came to Wufeng Mountain, Song Qingxue, who was usually idle, was very happy. Wu Cao had his own things to do, so Song Qingxue gave all her knowledge to this new apprentice.

Of course, the process is a bit like cramming.

Ye Xinhai put on an expression of "the sooner you die, the sooner you will be reborn" and said helplessly: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"You have been practicing for almost four months, right? Master wants you to go down the mountain to collect herbs. Pills need raw materials. Going down the mountain to collect herbs is also an indispensable part of our practice!"

Seeing his master's righteous words and beaming with joy, Ye Xinhai remained unmoved and ruthlessly exposed him: "Don't think I don't know that the herbs we use to make pills in Wufeng Mountain are all distributed by the sect. Brother Liu, who is in charge of purchasing, will send them to us. We don't need to collect herbs ourselves!"

After her lie was exposed, Song Qingxue changed her pleasant expression and said coldly, "Go down the mountain right now and pick some herbs for me!"

"I got it!" The man of great resilience put out the alchemy fire and rushed out of the alchemy room like a fly.

Song Qingxue in the room snorted coldly, complaining in her heart that her little disciple was so difficult to manage.

In the outer sect meeting hall of Lingyun Sect, Ye Xinhai rushed down from the mountain in a hurry and ran in. No matter whether it was the outer sect disciples who were accepting sect missions or the outer sect elders who were assigning tasks, they were all attracted by him.

Indeed, it was a strange thing to see people wearing coarse linen clothes and covered in dust running around in a big sect like Lingyun Sect.

"Brother Liu!"

Before he saw anyone, Liu Shanghe, who was in charge of going down the mountain to collect herbs and purchase daily necessities, heard a voice coming from afar. He turned around and looked around for someone, but the person who made the voice was already standing in front of him.

"Ah, Junior Brother Ye, are you here to report the herbs?"

The two of them were quite familiar with each other. After Wu Fengshan came from Ye Xinhai, Song Qingxue handed the task of reporting the herbs to him. No wonder he exposed Song Qingxue's lies in one sentence.

"No, today I came to ask you for equipment to go down the mountain to collect herbs."

Liu Shanghe was not surprised after hearing Ye Xinhai's words. Anyway, no one cared about Wu Fengshan's disciples and no one cared what they did.

"This is a map with the growing areas of common herbs marked on it. Here are the sickle and basket, keep them." Liu Shanghe threw the necessary equipment for picking herbs in front of Ye Xinhai, took a piece of paper and stamped it with the seal of Lingyun Sect, "Keep it well, and show it to the gatekeeper disciples when you leave or come in."

"Thank you, Brother Liu. I'm leaving now." Picking up his equipment, Ye Xinhai hummed a little tune and prepared to leave. The person who had just joined the queue walked past him, and a familiar woman with messy hair appeared in his sight.

"Herb collector..."

"good."

The person standing behind him was actually his senior sister Wu Cao.

"No wonder she is not in the alchemy room sometimes. It turns out she went out to collect herbs." Ye Xinhai couldn't help but say what was in his mind.

Liu Shanghe shrugged, threw the equipment to Wucao, and said with a smile: "She has always been collecting herbs by herself. The herbs she wants are too diverse, and I don't have the time to help her collect them."

When he said this, he was not afraid of getting angry at Wucao who was standing next to him. It seemed that he knew Wucao well enough.

"What kind of elixir requires so many herbs?" Ye Xinhai leaned close to Liu Shanghe's ear and asked in a low voice.

Liu Shanghe had no idea about this question. He only told Ye Xinhai that his senior sister seemed to be trying some medicine.

Since Wucao had herbs he needed to collect, and the two of them were not on the same path, Ye Xinhai planned to just leave.
