Chapter 90 Homemade ginseng digging tool

When Yu Fei asked about the T-shirt he was wearing, Kun Yuanzi replied: "The princess bought it for Pindao when she and Bai Hu went to the street."

Yu Fei immediately understood that it was the two of them who bought it. No wonder it had such a cute pattern. Kun Yuanzi rarely went out on the streets. The clothes he wore were bought by other people. Because Kun Yuanzi was thin and thin, So everyone often bought him women's T-shirts, which were often just right. However, it was a shame that they could think of a T-shirt with such a cute pattern on such a zombie Taoist priest who looked like an old man.

Kun Yuanzi grabbed the corner of the hem of the T-shirt, pulled it hard, and then tore the T-shirt apart slowly. After a while, he tore off a piece of cotton that was nearly one meter long and one finger wide. Unfortunately, the Hello Kitty T-shirt that Kun Yuanzi was wearing suddenly became a little shorter. Fortunately, it was covered by a jacket outside, so it couldn't be seen.

Taking the cotton strip handed over by Kun Yuanzi, Yu Fei took out a sharp Swiss Army knife from his waist and cut his palm. Blood immediately came out. He quickly crumpled the cotton strip into a ball. , the blood flowing from the palm of his hand dripped on it.

Seeing his own blood falling drop by drop on the white cotton cloth, Yu Fei felt a little distressed. After all, human blood is the foundation of essence. After a while, the entire cotton cloth was almost soaked with blood. He He quickly took out the Yunnan Baiyao and sprinkled it on the incision in the palm of his hand to stop the blood. He quickly wrapped a few circles of gauze around it, then held the ball of cotton strips with his other hand and squeezed it gently a few times. Let the blood be evenly distributed, and then spread out the entire cotton strip. The original white cotton strip has completely turned into blood red, and the blood rope is completed.

Next, you have to make special tools for digging ginseng.

Lu You said that because gold tools will damage the root energy of ginseng, you cannot use any metal tools to dig ginseng. You have to use special wooden ginseng digging tools, and this special ginseng digging tool will naturally be out of order for a while. No way to get it, I can only make one now.

Although I don’t know what the special tool looks like, I can guess roughly with my imagination. Since the tool is mainly used to dig soil and remove the soil from ginseng roots, the front end of the tool should be in the shape of a shovel. As for wood, there is no need to worry, there is plenty of it in this mountain.

Kun Yuanzi flew up to a big tree next to him, swung his palm, and chopped off a branch as thick as the mouth of a bowl. Yu Fei stepped forward to pick up the branch, and started whittling it with a Swiss Army knife.

Yu Fei had no experience in doing carpentry work. He originally thought it would be easy. Who knows, after working for a long time, he still couldn't make a decent thing that could be called a "tool". Kun Yuanzi He couldn't stand it any longer, so he took the Swiss Army knife from Yu Fei's hand and started sharpening it.

In just three strokes, five divided by two, Kun Yuanzi used this small Swiss Army knife to create a decent "ginseng digging tool", and he also carved on the pole of the tool. He made some exquisite patterns, and Yu Fei looked at it dumbfounded.

Taking the tools handed over by Kun Yuanzi, Yu Fei said blankly: "Sir, you used to be a carpenter, right?"

Kun Yuanzi did not answer, but a proud smile appeared on his face. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with his "work".

In fact, he has never worked as a carpenter, but he was once a first-class expert in designing mechanisms, and most of the ancient mechanisms were made of stone and wood, so he was naturally very proficient in carpentry work.

Now that the blood rope and tools for digging ginseng were ready, the two continued to search for ginseng in the deep mountains and old forests.

There are quite a lot of ginseng in this inaccessible virgin forest, and now is the ginseng flowering season. Generally, ginseng will bloom after three years or more. The purple-white flowers it blooms are quite conspicuous in the green grass. It is easy to was discovered, so this season actually happens to be the best time to go into the mountains to pick wild ginseng.

However, ginseng flowers usually bloom at night and wither at dawn. During the day, the ginseng grass is hidden in the thick grass and is difficult to be found. As for the extremely rare ginseng that is hundreds or even hundreds of years old, it may be There are only one or two plants on a large mountain top, and the environment where it grows is often more hidden. If you want to pick it, it depends on your luck.

Fortunately, Kun Yuanzi knew how to check Feng Shui. They didn't search all over the mountains and plains, but went to places with abundant spiritual energy. After all, the lifespan of ordinary ginseng is also limited. The lifespan of artificially cultivated ginseng is only about 10 years, so unless Only if it grows in a place with abundant spiritual energy can it survive for thousands of years.

Having delineated such a range, it was relatively easy to find. Otherwise, even if they wandered around in the deep mountains and old forests for another year and a half, they might not be able to find a real century-old wild ginseng.

The two of them walked all the way to the depths of the mountain. It was midsummer, and the forest was overgrown with shrubs and weeds. Moreover, there were no established mountain roads in this inaccessible virgin forest. Often, you would not be able to walk more than a few steps before you would be surrounded by a group of people. A large group of shrubs or thorns blocked the way. Fortunately, they were able to control their movements and were not restricted in their movements. It was quite difficult to find the ginseng grass among the dense thorns and weeds. .

Every time they went to a place with strong spiritual energy, they opened their eyes wide and searched carefully. From early in the morning to sunset, they worked hard and dug out a few thumb-sized ginseng plants. It looks like it is only about ten years old at most, so it can be regarded as a high-quality medicinal material, but if it is used to refine the Hunyuan elixir, it may still be a little short of the weather.

After working hard all day, the two of them had not eaten enough. Even though they were practitioners, they were already very tired. Yu Fei even felt more tired than the last time in Lop Nur because he had to keep bending down while looking for ginseng in the grass. Especially when digging ginseng, he and Kun Yuanzi almost lay on the ground.

And since they knew that the dug ginseng could not break the skin or cut off the beards, they both dug very carefully. It took almost an hour to dig out a ginseng plant. They kept their heads down and bent over for such a long time, so as not to get tired. Weird.

Of course, their level of digging ginseng has also improved a lot. When digging the last ginseng plant, they did not break a single stem or cause any damage to it. This was the only time they were able to dig it. A place with a little sense of accomplishment.

Seeing the sky gradually darkening, the two of them unknowingly came to a valley.
