The True Martial Wolrd
chapter 16
Hand over your potion! Hand over your potion!
As the day started to darken, Zhao Tiezhu started to shout at the entrance of the village.
The five members of the warrior preparation camp had prepared a long table. On the table sat five round pans.
This pot is woven from bamboo, and is usually used to dry dates or herbal medicine.
Three of the five pans are filled.
People lined up to hand over the potions they had picked. A long-bearded elder identified the age and rarity of each herb. He used a small scale to weigh the medicinal plants before noting them down.
As it was Yi Yun and Jiang Xiaorou's turn, Yi Yun slowly handed over the harvest.
The bearded old man looked and his eyes twinkled, Dan Guo! Black mushroom! Sweet root! Wild ginseng! This is a good herb!
The elder looked at this expensive potion as if it was his baby, and began to caress them as they entered his hands.
Yi Yun stood to the side and heaved a sigh of relief. This old man might be a potion expert, but he was unable to tell that the herbal essence had long been sucked up by the Purple Crystal.
This is understandable. The potion that was sucked dry by the Purple Crystal did not look any different from the potion that had just been picked.
Hehe, son, you're really lucky. You can save your rations today!
Zhao Tiezhu was very happy to see the medicinal plants.
They were in charge of collecting herbs, and they would receive gifts from Lian Chengyu if they were of high quality!
When Lian Chengyu started to skyrocket in the future, his minions would gain something. He could enter a big city, and might even get a job in the city!
I'm aware that you are a suitable medicine expert, with a natural talent for picking herbs. For me to send you herbal picking is due to my foresight, matching you to your best potential!
You didn't die the last time you improved your potion picking skills. According to this standard, give one more ounce of herbs tomorrow!
As Zhao Tiezhu said that, he casually smiled.
“What!?”
Jiang Xiaorou was furious. Choosing 16 ounces of herbs was already very difficult, yet Zhao Tiezhu added even more!
Jiang Xiaorou knew the speed of picking Yi Yun potions was fast, and a little more was no problem for her. But knowing Zhao Tiezhu, it would mean “give them an inch, and they would take a yard”. Accidents will finally happen!
Private Zhao, you must be joking. This plant was picked very hard from my hard work all day. This is all mine.
yi Yun's intonation was extremely slow. As he moved his lips, his eyes glanced at the three pans filled with spices.
Layers of light dots began to float on the surface of the three pans.
These points of light were clearly drawn by the Purple Crystal. They were like fireflies at night, and floated slowly to Yi Yun.
A bright smile enveloped Yi Yun's face. Purple Crystals needed time to absorb the herbal essence. Zhao Tiezhu's nonsense was to please Yi Yun.
Damn you think I'm negotiating with you!? Zhao Tiezhu slammed the table, making the bearded old man startled.
You cheap people only know how to eat. Rarely is there anything that you trash can use, and here you come up with all sorts of excuses! The Lian tribe does not support freeloaders. His people become warriors, or do honest work! Hand over one more ounce of herbs tomorrow. Get lost!
Scolded on his face by Zhao Tiezhu, Yi Yun's face shriveled and his body froze.
The surrounding people understood that for a twelve-year-old to be scolded so loudly in public, it would be a crushing blow to Yi Yun.
Zhao Tiezhu looked at Yi Yun's whitened face. He wanted to tease further.
Jiang Xiaorou could not bear it anymore before pulling Yi Yun away. However, Yi Yun's feet were rooted in the ground and were unshakable. It was as if he had turned into stone from Zhao Tiezhu's harsh words.
Yi Yun was unaffected by Zhao Tiezhu. He treated his words like crazy dog barking. He only concentrated on how much herbal essence he had to absorb.
Absorbing about 80% will work. I need to leave the soup for Lian Chengyu. Even a fool would be able to find something wrong if a large number of herbs did not have any herbal essence.
Yi Yun could not conflict with the upper echelons of the Lian tribal clan. He might be able to get rid of Zhao Tiezhu, but he was still no match for people like the Patriarch or Lian Chengyu.
The herbal essence absorbed by the Purple Crystal quickly entered his bloodstream, circulating throughout Yi Yun's body. It made him feel the warmth in his channel. Her body became warmer and her face became pink.
Yi Yun felt his body light with euphoria.
Yi Yun's appearance looked pitiful to the crowd. His face was red, and his limbs were limp. It must have been due to Zhao Tiezhu's reprimand.
“Pitying child. He's very young. He was chosen because he was against Zhao Tiezhu on the day of the ration division
This boy really had a bitter life. His mother died shortly after they arrived in the Lian tribe. He is weak and prone to disease. He had no strength, he would not be able to fight Zhao Tiezhu.
What's with the people from the warrior preparation camp who use the village. You guys think Young Master Lian Chengyu is really going to take us to the city?
Shhh, don't talk nonsense. If the people from the warrior preparation camp heard of it, you would be lucky!
“I think this child will die sooner or later ..”
It was common for people to fall to their deaths when picking up plants in the mountains. The more expensive a potion is, the higher the price. Yi Yun must have climbed up high, risking his life to hand over such a high-grade herb. He was destined to fall to his death in the future.
But so what if someone died in the Lian tribal clan? The lives of the people here are worthless.
Late at night, the moon hung in the sky like a silver hook.
In Patriarch Lian's medicine room, several men were fanning flames made from huge piles of wood under a large pot.
Some of the elders from the medicine room carefully arranged the herbs. They began to brew herbs made from some combination of herbs and additional drugs.
Medicinal supplements and heat were secretly passed down in the Lian tribal clan. It was unknown to the commoners. Because if they knew how, they could secretly pluck medicinal plants and brew them themselves.
The upper echelons of the Lian tribal clan felt that using herbs on commoners was the same as using good grains to feed pigs. That's useless.
Even the members of the warrior preparation camp did not have the chance to soak their bodies in the herbs.
A carefully brewed herbal decoction was special for Lian Chengyu.
“Good! Goody! You did well this time. There are some good herbs collected!
The patriarch was very satisfied after seeing the list of potions.
This is what is expected of me small, Zhao Tiezhu nodded with a lick smile. It was ordered by the Patriarch and this concerns the future of Young Master Lian, little I will never dare to fail to comply with it. As I left the training ground, my little one ran to the mountain of potions to watch over the picking of plants. Even the cowardly ones have to climb the cliff. Therefore, we were lucky to find the Black Mushroom and Dan Guo.
Zhao Tiezhu took all the praise from Yi Yun.
“Not bad! You work hard. Going to the warehouse and collecting a pound of meat, the Patriarch patted Zhao Tiezhu on the shoulder.
“Thank you Patriarch!” zhao Tiezhu said happily.
Yeah, do it well. When Chengyu becomes a royal warrior, he will need an errand boy. If you are wise, you can get an appreciation from Chengyu. If you can be by his side, when Chengyu soars, you will definitely reap some of its benefits.
“Thank you Patriarch for his kind words!” Zhao Tiezhu knelt down. He's very excited.
That child Yi Yun was his lucky star. He did not expect the little henchman to be good at picking plants. In the future, he would give her benefits such as a little herbal dregs and some rations. The poor boy would be so grateful to receive that small sum and would do everything as his slave horse!
Zhao Tiezhu walked away while dreaming of his bright future, leading the masses in the big city.
