Chapter 6: Chapter 5 Medicine FieldWhat caught Yun Canghai's attention was merely Yun Sheng's action of weeding. At this season, most of the medicine fields in Banana Leaf Village had just recently been planted with Blood Stopping Flowers. The Yun Family's medicine field was no exception, as the tender buds of the Blood Stopping Flower were just peeking out. Blood Stopping Flower, the main crop of the medicine fields in Banana Leaf Village, also serves as the only economic income for the Yun Family. The flower blooms once every three months. After blooming, the flower cores are collected and dried to be used as raw material for Hemostatic Agent. However, these flowers are not easy to cultivate. Due to the wet and hot climate of Banana Leaf Village, wild grass reproduces rapidly. Weeding one day, the grass shoots back up the next. The wild grass and the sprouting Blood Stopping Flowers almost look identical during the germination period; mixed together, they are hard to distinguish. Ordinary medicinal farmers in the village will wait until the Blood Stopping Flowers grow a bit bigger before they start weeding, but by then, they miss the optimal weeding period, affecting the later growth of the Blood Stopping Flowers. Yun Sheng, coming from a family of medicinal experts, knew well that planting during the juvenile phase of the herbs is critical; she would never allow such a situation to happen. After watering, the petite Yun Sheng bent down like a small female leopard pouncing on prey, staring intently at the wild grass among the flowers. A streak of gold crossed her pitch-black pupils. Shennong's Eyes First Level, Micro. Yun Sheng's inherited Shennong's Eyes have four levels; namely Micro, Insight, Inner Vision, and Divine Trace. It is not only a technique to enhance visual acuity and has some hypnotic effects but legend says that at the highest level, one can act before the enemy moves. However, it is difficult to cultivate Shennong's Eyes; even in Yun Sheng's past life, she only reached the Insight level, being able to discern the age of medicine and human illnesses with just one glance. Even so, this was still a rare talent in the Yan Family; most Yan Family people could only reach Micro. It is said that the ancestral Shennong, Emperor Yan, cultivated to the Third Level, Inner Vision, and could see through the internal organs and meridians of all things. Under the influence of Shennong's Eyes, the characteristics of the Blood Stopping Flower and the tender shoots of wild grass in front of Yun Sheng were magnified several times. The wild grass has smooth leaf tips, while the Blood Stopping Flower has round leaves with velvety hairs. What is difficult for others to differentiate in their eyes, is clear and distinct under her Shennong's Eyes. Yun Sheng's slender fingers quickly moved like a sudden downpour, swiftly shuttling through the medicine field. In an instant, a pile of weeds had been completely removed by her. Yanling's Hand, cultivated to the First Level, can triple the speed of one's hands; this is also why the Blood Stopping Flower of the Yun Family was rated as Second-class Medicinal Herb. Pleased with the pile of wild grass on the ground, Yun Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. In two months, the Blood Stopping Flower would surely see a great harvest, by then, she would be able to gather enough money to buy the Hemostatic Potion. As a "dark cloud" covered the sky overhead, Yun Sheng quickly stood up. Seeing the man behind her, she revealed two small dimples, "Father, you're back!" In this life, Yun Sheng's father, Yun Canghai glanced at the wild grass on the ground, hummed a sound, and walked into the grass hut. Yun Sheng was used to her father's indifference; after all, her father hummed today, indicating his mood wasn't too bad. Perhaps later, she could ask about the matter mentioned by the village chief. Father and daughter, as usual, had a simple meal of porridge and wild vegetables. Yun Canghai was hungry, devouring several bowls of porridge in one go. Yun Sheng ate slowly, pondering over how to discuss with Yun Canghai about going to the Magic Temple to become a Medicine Gathering Boy. "I heard you attended the Magic Enlightenment again, I've told you many times, don't go. What's the use of learning magic if you can't even protect the most important people to you, it's all deceiving tricks!" Yun Canghai put down his bowl, his gaze icy cold. Whenever Yun Canghai showed such a look, Yun Sheng would invariably shiver involuntarily. Although Yun Canghai is a degenerate drunk, Yun Sheng felt that he was much more intense than the politicians and mafia godfathers from her previous life. Yun Sheng's eyes were slightly warm as she gripped her chopsticks tightly, "Father, if you don't like it, Sheng'er won't attend the Magic Enlightenment anymore." Having failed Magic Enlightenment three times, unless she finds Moonlight Grass, Yun Sheng doesn't plan to attend Magic Enlightenment again, but that doesn't mean she has given up on learning magic. Seeing his daughter's red eyes, like a rabbit, Yun Canghai grunted again, and he stood up, taking away the copper coin from the large porcelain bowl. The medical system on Wuji Continent slightly differs from the modern Eastern and Western medical systems that Yun Sheng is familiar with. To fully recover her previous life's state, Yun Sheng needs to relearn the medical system of Wuji Continent. "Father," seeing that Yun Canghai was about to leave the house, Yun Sheng quickly asked, "Sheng'er wants to go to the Magic Temple to help the new mage manage the medicinal herbs. Sheng'er cannot learn magic, but Sheng'er wants to learn medical skills. There is always a way out, since Sheng'er can't learn magic, then Sheng'er must have other methods to protect herself and those important to her." Using another method to protect herself and those important to her? In Yun Canghai's eyes, it seemed as if a woman with a cunning smile flashed by, who once said the same thing in front of him. He remembered the scene where Yun Sheng was weeding in the Medicine Field and several times, in the quiet of the night, she was flipping through the Medical Book under the oil lamp. In the past six years, this child had never asked anything for herself, this was the first time she boldly expressed her innermost thoughts. "If you want to learn, go and learn. Once you decide to do something, you must stick to it and not give up halfway. After becoming a Medicine Gathering Boy, you cannot neglect the Medicine Field and household chores," Yun Canghai said seriously. Having said this, he suddenly turned around, put back five copper coins, "Take the money and buy a pair of new straw sandals." Yun Sheng looked down and noticed that the straw sandal on her right foot had worn through, exposing a big toe. After becoming a Medicine Gathering Boy, she'd definitely need to gather herbs in the mountains, and the rough mountain paths would wear out her feet without straw sandals.

Father, he still remembers her, feeling a slight warmth in her heart, Yun Sheng nodded firmly. She then remembered something else, "Father, while I was cleaning the trunk, I found a ring. Is that ring yours?" Yun Canghai glanced at the ancient ring on the table. When he saw that ring, he paused for a moment, and with a hint of bitterness, said: "That was left by your mother, it is an heirloom of her tribe, called Beast Language. If you like it, keep it." After saying that, Yun Canghai went out — he went to drink again. Yun Sheng knew he wouldn't return until after dark. Although her father was against her learning magic, at least he agreed for her to go to the Magic Temple to study medicine, and she also got an heirloom from her mother. Yun Sheng, feeling delighted, cleaned the dishes, then picked up the ring called "Beast Language." The ring looked ancient, its surface covered in dust. Yun Sheng washed it several times, only removing the surface dust, but a layer of mud-like substance coating the ring wouldn't come off, no matter how she washed it. The muddy layer concealed the original patterns on the ring, but Yun Sheng didn't mind. She slipped the ring onto her finger. The ring was slightly large, so Yun Sheng wrapped a few strands of thin rope around the ring a few times to adjust it to the right size. "It's about time, I'll go visit the village chief and tell him that Father agreed to let me become a Medicine Gathering Boy," Yun Sheng shook her fingers to make sure the ring wouldn't fall off, and then she left home.
