Servant of the Otherworldly Pharmacopoeia

His ginger leaves are not enough!

There is only a small piece of land in the space, and the output of ginger is not large, and the ginger leaves only look like a small bundle.On the day when he left the space, he threw some away, and just changed another egg.Now there is only a small amount in the space.

It's all because he was too generous just now to give Big Bird such a big hand.

Although the ginger in the space matures quickly, it can't stand the three-day exchange of an egg.What if the amount of exchange is reduced by half?The sneering bird face of Li Che Beast appeared in Xu Jiu's mind. If he dared to cut corners, the bird would peck himself to death.

But the new batch of ginger has just been planted, and it will take a month to fully mature!

Xu Jiu leaned against the bed, fiddling with the ginger in her hand anxiously.He couldn't move his legs, and he didn't stay idle. He took out the ginger pieces to be dried and placed them in rows on the stone slab beside the window.

"Gada—" a bird twittered in the air, and the big bird came back from hunting.

Since the exchange, these days, one person and one bird have shown a state of peaceful coexistence. When Xu Jiu went out to fetch water with a limp, Big Bird did not provoke him again.

Occasionally holding a ginger stalk in his mouth, like a fierce god, the old god squinted on the spiral staircase standing in mid-air - staring at Xu Jiu.

It's so erect and full of presence, it always looks like it's thinking about something, you can't even pretend you haven't seen it!Xu Jiu was frightened by the bird, and didn't even go out except to fetch water and convenience.Grandma packed almost ten days' worth of rations in his parcel, enough for him to get to the manor.

However, Xu Jiu looked at the empty eggshell next to him, what if he ate the egg.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but Xu Jiu thinks the egg is really miraculous. It's been four or five days since the egg fell, and the wounds on the surface have scabbed off, and the legs are getting better.Unlike the first fracture, this time the leg was broken several times. It is reasonable to say that the recovery is more difficult, but in fact the progress is about the same as last time.

According to this progress, he will be able to throw away the crutches and walk by himself in a few days.

The time to recuperate is always extremely long. That night, with the moonlight still shining through, Xu Jiu was lying on the bed thinking about how to fill out the "Pharmacopia".He has slept so much these days that he always suffers from insomnia at night.In addition, the legs are in the recovery period, itching and itching, like a hundred thousand ants crawling and biting on them, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

"Woooooooo..."

There was a clear whimper from the wilderness, and the voice he thought was a hallucination last time appeared again.

This time there was no wind, and it was clearly the cry of a child.

Whose child will cry in the wasteland in the middle of the night?Xu Jiu thought of many ghosts and ghosts, and felt that the cries came from bad people. They were so sad that they clearly attracted other people's ears.

Either a ghost or a beast that can make a human voice, either of which is enough to kill him.Xu Jiu came to a conclusion, turned over in agitation, and accidentally pressed on the wound of the broken leg.With a hiss, he moved away with difficulty.

The crying became intermittent and gradually weakened.

But what if it's really a child?Xu Jiu tugged at her hair.Under the same circumstances, he dared to go out a few days ago because his leg was not broken, so he could move easily, and he had never experienced the lethality of wild beasts.

But now he can't even protect himself, he has to rest three times after taking a step, why take risks?Even if it was a child who was abandoned on the wasteland, he should let the other party look back at the embrace of the beast god, shouldn't he?

As Xu Jiu thought about it, he struggled to stand up against the wall, gasped and scolded himself, "Damn it, such an obvious act of courting death, can really move China by running for the election!"

After bumping and bumping to the door, Xu Jiu was not afraid anymore, and opened the door majesticly, leaning on what she picked up last time - a rich and luxurious carved walking stick.

The wilderness is open under the moonlight without any shelter, and the sky and the earth face each other openly and honestly like the closest lovers.It was a rare, windless night with a gentle moonlight.

This night, Xu Jiu walked hard in the wilderness with the thought of narrow escape.

A long time later, when he was old and vicissitudes, when his body functions were exhausted and he couldn't even feel his pulse, thinking of this night, his heart was still beating enthusiastically.Recalling that when he was young, he walked alone and resolutely on the wilderness at night, thinking of all possibilities, but he never expected to meet the person he loved in his life.

Of course, that feeling came much later.Let's look at the present moment, Xu Jiu grinned and twisted his twisted steps, screaming in pain as he walked, and at the same time pricked up his ears to look for the cries like a kitten.

The bones that haven't grown yet rub against each other, and the taste is ecstatic.Just when Xu Jiu was about to give up, he finally noticed the squirming ball of Backlight Po.

That's where the crying came from.

The dumpling was small and looked like a child.Xu Jiu wiped off his sweat, and approached while holding his cane tightly.

What a child!

It was a big-headed doll with a round forehead, dressed in neat long clothes and trousers, lying on the ground in a daze, waving his small hands back and forth, his body trembling with sobs from time to time.

The child is very thin, except for a slightly larger head, the limbs are very thin, probably only one or two years old.Seeing him crying pitifully, Xu Jiu knelt down and touched him.

The child felt the warmth of his body and opened his weeping eyes.Those eyes were extremely big, and the eyelashes were embedded in a circle, dense and long, wet and glued together by tears.

"Why are you here?"

The child ignored his amiable voice, just sobbed and did not answer.

Xu Jiu thought of the custom of throwing children away in this world. Judging by the appearance of this child, in the eyes of his parents, he probably could not support him, so he secretly threw it away while the moon was dark and the wind was high.If he didn't come out, the next day the child would either freeze to death or be eaten by the Liche beast.

This world is similar to the customs of some ethnic minorities in the previous life. If a person's soul wants to return to God, it is actually to let that person be eaten by wild beasts.And there happened to be a man-eating beast in the castle... Xu Jiu thought of the crying he heard a few days ago, and his hands trembled, isn't it what he thought?

Xu Jiu bent down and picked up the child with great effort.

The child was also well-behaved. After climbing onto the man's body, he obediently fell on Xu Jiu's shoulder, his body curled up in his arms and did not move.

A very thin and very light child.Xu Jiu hugged him with one arm, patted his back lightly, and returned to the castle with the other hand on crutches.

After returning, Xu Jiu put the child on the bed that had been made, and then limped to fetch water.Wipe the child inside and out with half a bucket of water, and wrap him in a soft little leather blanket.

The child watched him busy with his eyes half-opened, his eyes full of bewildered childishness.

Xu Jiu looked soft-hearted, and leaned up to kiss him on the forehead: "Hey, go to sleep."

The child was ignorant and obediently closed his eyes.

Xu Jiu tossed and tossed in the middle of the night, and when he lay down, it was already bright. He was extremely sleepy, so he lay down gently next to the child, and fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed.

"Duoduoduo!" Frequent pecking sounded on the door.

"Duddudddddddddddddddd up!"

Xu Jiu opened his eyes and found that the sky was bright and the light in the room was strong: "What time is it?"

He just asked casually, as if something warm moved in his arms.

Xu Jiu was startled, and looked down to find a child in her arms, looking at him with wide eyes.The child looked like he had woken up early, but he remained obediently and did not move.It was only then that Xu Jiu remembered that he had just picked up a child yesterday. Seeing that the child was small and well-behaved, he couldn't help but reach out and pluck the fetal hair on the child's head: "Morning."

The child didn't respond, and there was no fluctuation in his clear eyes.

This kid can't be stupid, can he?Xu Jiu was worried for a while, but before he could take a closer look, Duoduo's knock on the door became more intense, accompanied by the angry cry of a big bird.

"Cuckoo, cluck!" Open the door, open the door, open the door!

Alas, there is an ancestor outside the door.Xu Jiu got up resignedly, covered the child tightly, stomped her feet to cheer herself up, and opened a crack in the door as if facing an enemy.

"Cuckoo!" As soon as the door lock was unlocked, Xu Jiu couldn't control the size. The big bird swung the door open with one paw, and looked down at him imposingly with round eyes.

"Bird Master." Xu Jiu pulled out a smile, "What's the matter with Bird Master?"

"Coo coo coo coo!" The bird turned its head, and quickly stared behind Xu Jiu, the cooing sound became sullen, and the body squeezed hard into the door.

Xu Jiu turned around and realized that Li Che Beast was staring at the child, looking menacing as if it wanted to eat him right away.But the child was still ignorant, poking his head out of the quilt, he was not afraid of Li Che Beast.Xu Jiu quickly pushed the big bird away: "Master Bird, this is my child, don't eat it!"

"Cuckoo cluck cluck!" This is my food!The big bird didn't expect this stupid human being to dare to offend it so much, it was pushed and staggered, and its iron paws slapped Xu Jiu on the head.

Xu Jiu quickly grabbed a handful of tender stems from the space and stuffed them under the raised bird's claws: "I'll exchange this with you!"

"Cuckoo." The big bird suppressed its anger, hooked a large handful of ginger stems with one claw, and tilted its head to look at it. After all, the big claw failed to pat it down. With its wings retracted, it struggled to get out of the house.

Xu Jiu wiped off his sweat, watched the big bird bring the ginger stem back to the nest, and then... flew back again, grabbed a freshly baked egg and placed it in front of him.

The big bird hooked the egg under its claws and looked disdainfully: "Coo coo."

Xu Jiu was not sure what he meant: "Ah?"

Big Bird pushed the egg towards him: "Cuckoo."

Xu Jiu touched the egg, this scene seemed familiar.

"No, it's all for you." He explained dryly.

The big bird was furious, spread its wings and fluttered: "Goo!!!"

Disturbed by the strong wind, Xu Jiu slowly retreated to the middle of the room: "I didn't lie to you, it really is gone."

Big Bird stopped his battle, stared at Xu Jiu, and walked slowly towards him step by step.The Liche Beast is extremely powerful. If it wants to, let alone a door panel, even a house can't trap it. If you don't believe it, you can refer to the big hole at the top of the castle.

Xu Jiu wanted to cry, what are you doing, can't you discuss it properly!
