It's night -
starry.
The night sky was unexpectedly bright under the starlight and moonlight. In his previous life, Tang Zheng could not see the starry sky even in the countryside.
Crack, crackle!
The firewood was lit, making a crackling sound as the flames danced.
Nfirea was sitting by the campfire, holding several herbs in his hand and studying them. He would smell them from time to time, and even open his mouth and take a bite to taste.
Grandma Liji stood in front of the carriage not far away, checking the condition of the herbs on the carriage.
In the "Rock" team, except for the captain Dosari and the elder brother Rand of the twins, they stood on guard outside.
The remaining two people had already gone to explore the surrounding environment.
They were sleeping in the wilderness at the moment.
Captain Dosari reminded them that there was a village not far from their location where they could stay overnight.
only.
She was rejected by her grandmother Saji, who didn't want to take the long way around.
Since there was a box of rare medicinal herbs purchased from the royal capital on the carriage and they needed to return to "E-Rantel" for refining as soon as possible, they chose the fastest route.
Because of this, some towns on the route were skipped directly.
Such a choice by the client will undoubtedly increase the dangers on the road. Under normal circumstances, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction among the adventurer team.
After all!
The relationship between the client and the adventurer team is only a cooperative relationship. If the client does something unacceptable to the adventurer during the mission, the adventurer can naturally stop the commission midway.
However, this requires paying the Adventurer's Guild a considerable amount of money.
With the situation in front of them, where they had to work as coolies and not follow a safe route at all, under normal circumstances, the adventurer team would have already conflicted with the client.
However!
The "Rock" team learned that their grandmother Liji was the pharmacy owner of "E-Rantel" and was known as the best pharmacist in "E-Rantel".
All the original dissatisfaction disappeared, and I even became a lot more attentive along the way!
This made Tang Zheng have to sigh, the adventurer team "Rock" is really extremely pragmatic!
Don was sitting by the campfire, observing Nfirea's movements as she concentrated on studying the herbs.
Nfirea was holding a slender root-like plant about the length of a thumb in his hand, and he was putting it in his mouth and taking a small bite.
In the next moment!
Nfirea spit out the little bit he had bitten in his mouth: "So it's a bitter root? You can't tell from the appearance."
After saying this, Nfirea paid attention. When he arrived, Tang Zheng was sitting aside looking at him.
"This herb is called bitter root. It is exactly the same as this herb. It cannot be seen from the outside and can only be distinguished by tasting." "The effects of the two are also different. The bitter root is suitable for brewing wine and has certain medicinal properties. "The detoxification effect is the basic material used to make detoxification potions." "Although Megan also has a bitter taste, it does have a hint of sweetness, making it suitable for use as a basic material for healing potions." Nfirea is a bit shy at first. When the shy character talks about medicinal herbs, his eyes light up and his voice becomes much more confident. "That's it." Tang Zheng nodded, looking like he was listening carefully. In fact, he just wanted to see if he could get a career as a "pharmacist" by understanding herbal medicine. Currently, there are no prompts on the properties panel. "Tang, are you interested in herbal medicine?" Nfirea's bright blue pupils looked at Tang Zheng. "Indeed, I am somewhat interested." Tang Zheng nodded. "Hmph!" Just when Nfirea was about to say something else, a soft hum sounded. Grandma Liji walked over with her hands behind her back, "Nfirea, don't show off your shallow knowledge." "Tasting through the mouth is the most basic and lowest method of identification. It's not that your nose can't smell it. !" came a stern and somewhat scolding voice. "I understand, grandma." Nfirea lowered his head and spoke with some shame. Tang Zheng withdrew his gaze. He didn't know whether his grandmother Liji's scolding of Nfirea was meant to be a warning to him. In a different world where the spread of knowledge is obviously limited. His behavior during this period of asking Nfirea about some knowledge about medicinal herbs was indeed inappropriate. "Don't be nervous." "Although I am a little stingy, I won't be angry because of this matter." Grandma Liji looked at Tang Zheng and said calmly. Um... I say I'm stingy, even though it's true! But Tang Zheng, an outsider, also knew that whatever he said at this time was inappropriate. "You want to make a healing potion just because you know the characteristics of a few medicinal herbs? Don't even think about it." "Since you have some talent in faith-based magic, don't waste your energy on other aspects, whether it is martial arts or medicinal herbs. All the knowledge is a waste of time." Grandma Liji said in an unhurried voice. Tang Zheng was startled, knowing that the other party was reminding him in a good way, he recovered and said quickly: "Thank you, Mrs. Barreare." Hearing Tang Zheng's name. The wrinkled skin on Grandma Liji's face suddenly relaxed a lot, and she seemed to be very comfortable with this title.
"Barreare" is the other person's last name.
Tang Zheng learned about it when communicating with Nfirea, although he already knew it.
tread! tread!
Two footsteps came from the wilderness.
It was the twin brother Leer and the archer Basque who left not long ago to explore the surrounding environment.
As the two returned, the expressions on the faces of the other two members of the "Rock" team relaxed slightly.
"Humph...humph."
A weak moan came from behind Leer.
I saw.
Le'er was carrying a wild boar weighing more than 200 kilograms, and he looked unusually relaxed: "I'm lucky, I caught a wild boar, and our meal tonight is guaranteed."
"An arrow pierced the center of the eyebrow? It's actually still there Not dead."
"Hey, Basque, your archery skills have improved again."
Rand pinched his waist and looked at the wild boar carried by his brother, especially the visible bloody hole on the wild boar's forehead.
"It's just a wild boar." Basque said with a chuckle.
Bang!
Leer walked to the bonfire and threw the wild boar on his back to the ground with a muffled sound.
"Tang, you still have one breath left."
Leer said to Tang Zheng with a smile, and then pointed to a location on the wild boar's neck with his finger: "If you start here, you can kill it with one blow."
"Thank you." Tang Zheng He stood up from the campfire and walked towards the wild boar lying on the ground with only one breath left.
Grandma Liji wanted to rush back to "E-Rantel" as soon as possible, so although the route was faster, she couldn't repair it in the town. Grandma Liji had naturally planned the route a long time ago, so she was prepared. There was no shortage of food, but it obviously did not include the "Rock" team and Tang Zheng's. so! In addition to saving the food they carry, the "Rock" team also obtains food and reserves through hunting, which is obviously not a problem for adventurers. In this process. Tang Zheng mentioned that if possible, let him deliver the final blow to the captured prey. The external view is. He has the idea of becoming an adventurer, but he has never seen blood, so he wants to get used to it in advance. And for this statement. Team "Rock" didn't have any doubts. Because Tang Zheng is indeed not like an adventurer. Even the lowest level adventurer will carry some tools when he travels far away, but Tang Zheng has no awareness of this at all. Perhaps their strength can be doubted, but they can still tell from this experience. so. The "Rock" team didn't hesitate at all. During this period, as long as they caught a beast, they would hold their breath and let Tang Zheng kill it. Uh-huh! Tang Zheng pulled out his dagger from his waist and walked beside the wild boar lying on the ground, his body still twitching slightly. Without any hesitation, he raised his dagger and stabbed it into the part of the wild boar mentioned by Leer.
