Chapter 207
Now that she knew how precious the bracelet was, Zhang Xiaohua didn't intend to keep it. It would have a magical effect if she wore it close to her body. Who knew if there would be any abnormalities if it left her body?
Besides, it was obvious that it was better to wear this kind of thing with a rough appearance. No one would think that their most precious thing was so simple to wear on their wrist.
After Zhang Xiaohua cleaned up, the longest washing was finally over.
After putting on his clothes, Zhang Xiaohua reluctantly threw away the clothes that were not old and tattered, but were stained with blood and smelly. He had already tried to clean his house in a simple manner, but the black stains could not be washed away no matter how hard he washed them. He could only reluctantly part with them.
When Zhang Xiaohua returned to the small courtyard, the rain didn't lessen at all. He Tianshu and the others hadn't come back yet. Zhang Xiaohua was amused. Yesterday, they said that it didn't matter. In fact, they all felt aggrieved in their hearts and felt that they didn't do their best. Today, when they heard that the herbs were alive again, they were probably reluctant to leave the medicine field.
Sure enough, when Zhang Xiaohua returned to the medicine field, He Tianshu and the others all held umbrellas and stood beside the medicine field, laughing and gesticulating. Seeing Zhang Xiaohua come back, He Tianshu asked with a smile, "Zhang Xiaohua, where did you go last night?
Don't tell me that he's really staying alone in the hut beside the medicinal field. "
Zhang Xiaohua nodded slightly and said, "Yes, Captain He. I feel that the withering of the herbs has a lot to do with me, so I feel uncomfortable if I don't stay by the side."
Hearing that, everyone was moved. Nie Er said, "The thunder was incessant last night, and it was right above our Huanxi Mountain Villa. Weren't you afraid at all?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "I was very afraid at the beginning, but I got used to it."
Although He Tianshu knew that Zhang Xiaohua had a bad habit of sleeping soundly at night, he was touched by her mood to stay by the field alone on such a rainy night, even if it did not help the revival of the herbs.
He Tianshu frowned slightly and asked, "Zhang Xiaohua, you've been keeping watch for a whole night. Do you know how this herb was saved?"
Of course, Zhang Xiaohua wouldn't tell him the truth. She pretended to rack her brains and said, "Captain He, I really don't know.
You also know that the rain last night was very heavy. Before the rain, I looked at the medicinal field and saw that nothing had changed. Everything was yellow and withered. After the rain, I returned to the straw hut. I felt that nothing had happened during the night, only the sound of thunder was incessant. Moreover … "
At this point, Zhang Xiaohua purposely paused for a moment before continuing, "Furthermore, when I woke up in the morning, I was just worried about the medicinal field. Only then did I realize that the medicinal plants were alive, so I immediately went to inform you.
As for the specific reason, I really don't know. "
He Tianshu thought for a moment and knew that what Zhang Xiaohua said was the truth. In his eyes, Zhang Xiaohua was just a youth who knew a little bit of boxing skills. He was very ordinary, so it was impossible for him to have any power to turn back and restore the medicinal plants. Moreover, he also knew that Zhang Xiaohua had a bad habit of sleeping soundly, so why would he expect to get any useful information from his mouth?
But Zhang Xiaohua was after all the first person to discover the changes in the medicinal plants and was also the only one who was keeping watch in the medicinal field. He could only ask again and again.
Could it be that the medicinal plants were short of water?
He Tianshu came up with an unimaginable thought.
But the growth of medicinal plants was different from ordinary crops and flowers. They didn't need to be watered daily, or even watered once every few days. The roots of these medicinal plants were usually rather developed and had enough ability to absorb water from the soil. But if it wasn't because of a lack of water, how could they be revived after a night of heavy rain?
He Tianshu was somewhat scratching his ears and cheeks.
He had to find a reason to tell the Elders in the Medicine Hall. They all knew that these medicinal plants were about to wither and now that they suddenly came back to life, there had to be an explanation.
At this moment, He Tianshu was secretly regretting. If he had reported to the Hall a little later, how good would that be?
The rain didn't stop and everyone didn't want to return to the small courtyard. After standing by the medicinal field for a while, Nie Xiao Er scurried everyone into the straw shed. But this straw shed that Zhang Xiaohua had built was originally for one purpose, so how could it accommodate so many people?
The few of them were laughing and joking inside and almost tore down the straw shed.
However, Zhang Xiaohua didn't feel bad about it. This straw shed was used to practice inner force skills. Now that they knew that it was harmful to the medicinal plants, naturally they couldn't continue to practice here. Zhang Xiaohua had already planned to wait for the weather to clear up and immediately tear it down.
He Tianshu didn't know Zhang Xiaohua's thoughts. Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua was a little distracted, he thought that he was distressed over the straw shed that he had built himself. He scolded Nie Xiao Er and the others and then asked them how they should deal with the Elders in the Medicine Hall if they came to inspect.
Actually, for this kind of matter, as a team leader, He Tianshu didn't need to discuss it with Nie Xiao Er and the others. But today's matter was very strange. Who knew when it would be leaked to the Medicine Hall and he didn't know the reason. If he didn't discuss it, it would leave a hidden danger for him.
Seeing that He Tianshu asked such a question, Nie Xiao Er and the others looked at each other. Yes, the matter of the medicinal plants dying had already been reported. Who knew, in a while, the Elders in the Medicine Hall would come. How should they deal with it?
Just say that the medicinal plants that were about to wither yesterday had revived because of the heavy rain last night.
Could the elders believe these words?
Hence, Nie Xiao Er and the others all talked at once and thought of many reasons, but He Tianshu shook his head. In the end, everyone's mouths were dry and they were at a loss.
In the end, it was He Tianshu who made the final decision. Just tell them the truth. It was up to them whether they believed it or not. That was the truth. What kind of nonsense could they make up?
Zhang Xiaohua, who was at the side, heard He Tianshu and the others discussing and finding the "culprit" that saved the medicinal plants. She couldn't help but feel secretly pleased. Fortunately, she didn't show herself. If they knew that she could save and nourish the medicinal plants, wouldn't she be locked up and studied like a monster in the future?
Who knows, they might even ask her to solve the problem of the seeds of those medicinal plants not germinating.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but have a thought. The growth of these medicinal plants required the nourishment of the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Then, shouldn't the germination of the medicinal plants also require the nourishment of the Qi of Heaven and Earth?
Did the seeds of these medicinal plants that could germinate successfully germinate because they required less Qi of Heaven and Earth? Did those medicinal plants that didn't germinate require a lot of Qi of Heaven and Earth, so they couldn't germinate?
The more Zhang Xiaohua thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense. She was almost certain of her conjecture. However, to remove the big stone in Ou Yan's heart and help these seeds germinate, Zhang Xiaohua was unable to do it.
He risked his life to attract the heavenly lightning and almost cracked his meridians. Only then did he save those medicinal plants. And this rich Qi of Heaven and Earth still couldn't make the seeds buried underground germinate. It could be imagined how much Qi of Heaven and Earth those seeds required. It was estimated that even if Zhang Xiaohua was turned into charcoal, it still wouldn't be fulfilled.
However, since Zhang Xiaohua's cultivation required the Qi of Heaven and Earth, and the germination of the seeds also required the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Perhaps when Zhang Xiaohua found the cultivation method, it would be the time for the seeds to germinate.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua also secretly made up her mind. Since she knew the reason why the seeds couldn't germinate, she naturally would try her best to find a solution. Not for anything else, but for Ou Yan's kindness to her.
Until the afternoon, when the heavy rain stopped, and a huge rainbow hung in the sky, the elders of the medicinal hall still didn't come.
He Tianshu and the others couldn't help but feel sad for being forgotten by the medicinal hall. They were still trying their best to plant the medicinal plants and report the situation of the medicinal plants to the hall in time, but looking at them, it seemed that they had forgotten about it.
Although they were sad, He Tianshu and the others were also disciples of the Misty School. They had been trained by the sect for so many years, and the belief of being loyal to the sect leader and the Misty School had long been rooted in their hearts. Therefore, since the others ignored them, they had to go and report the good news themselves.
Seeing that they were going back to the medicinal hall, Zhang Xiaohua was also happy. This medicinal field was no longer able to cultivate, and there was no Qi in the forest. Where could she go to cultivate?
Naturally, it was the medicinal hall.
There were many medicinal plants there. It shouldn't be a big problem for her to snatch some on the way, right?
Although this "right" was a question, in fact, Zhang Xiaohua had already defined it as a yes.
Hearing that Zhang Xiaohua wanted to go to the medicinal hall with him, He Tianshu immediately realized that Zhang Xiaohua hadn't returned the special approval token from Hall Master Bai. During the martial arts exhibition, he only saw Zhang Xiaohua taking the limelight, but he forgot about this token. When he returned to the Huan Xi Villa, he encountered the matter of the medicinal plants, so he threw everything to the back of his mind, let alone a token that had nothing to do with him.
He Tianshu said to Zhang Xiaohua, "Zhang Xiaohua, you should return the token that Hall Master gave you. After all, the martial arts exhibition is over. It's not good to keep holding on to it."
Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile, "Okay, Captain He, this is the last time. I'll return it to you before we come back tomorrow."
He Tianshu smiled and said, "No, you can give it to me now. What's so fun about the medicinal hall? I don't think there's anything new there. Why do you want to go there?"
Zhang Xiaohua said, "Captain He, that place is where you grew up. Naturally, you don't feel much about it. But I haven't been there much. I want to go and have a look.
How about this? When I enter the medicinal hall, I'll give you the token. How about it? "
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua haggle like this, He Tianshu felt rather helpless. Going to the medicinal hall wasn't a big deal, but he always felt that Zhang Xiaohua wasn't a disciple of the Misty School. Going to the medicinal hall wasn't a legitimate thing.
In the past, he was apprehensive about Zhang Xiaohua's aptitude and didn't dare to have the idea of accepting Zhang Xiaohua as a disciple. However, during the martial arts exhibition, Zhang Xiaohua helped the Misty School regain their face. He secretly doubted his own vision. But since Zhang Xiaohua had already shown her talent to Gang Leader Ou, the honor of being Zhang Xiaohua's master wouldn't fall on his head. Thus, he didn't want to have such extravagant thoughts. Otherwise, he would have already found Zhang Xiaohua to have a heart-to-heart talk.
