Rebirth Era: The Miracle Doctor Jiaojiao is Beautiful and Cool

Chapter 7: The Grass on the Withered Grave

"Grandma, don't cry. Officer Zhou from the police station is an upright person. He won't let the bad guys go." Gu Nanxing carried Xuanxuan and went over to comfort grandma.

In the world of cultivating immortals, strength is everything, and whoever has the stronger fist has the final say.

This era is still too limited!

Otherwise, Joey Wong's fate would be far worse than going to jail.

Old Lady Wang wiped away her tears and leaned over to hug her adorable granddaughter. "Xingxing has read more books and understands more than grandma does. It's just that I can't stand you being bullied like this."

"It's okay. I beat up Vivian Chow. No one can get the upper hand over me." Gu Nanxing raised his head stubbornly, looking fearless.

The sad atmosphere was relieved a lot by her cute and funny look.

Zhou Xiaoqing then advised her mother-in-law, "Mom, don't look for bad luck tomorrow. Everything will be decided by the law."

It’s hard to talk about sanctions. After all, they are my family. It’s a matter of life and death.

Gu Nanxing chatted about this and that, changing the topic. Everyone finished their work, washed their feet and went to bed.

The next day, Gu Nanxing, who had been practicing in the mountains, finished his breathing exercises and slowed down his pace as he went down the mountain, looking around for herbs.

The herbs my grandfather found yesterday were so cheap they wouldn't be worth much if I sold them. If we could find some rare and precious herbs, our tight budget would definitely improve.

Only she and her brother can eat the most nutritious eggs in the house, and they don’t have them every day. They can only eat them twice a week at most, and save the rest to sell for money.

If she hadn't been sick a few days ago, her grandma would have been reluctant to make egg pancakes for her.

My mother still wears the clothes she wore when she was a girl: skirts, flared jeans, and white shirts, most of which are not suitable for working in the fields. My grandparents only have nice clothes for going to the market, and the rest of the time they wear patched clothes.

Tsuan grass?
On a mound to the right in front of Gu Nanxing, there was a short and sturdy grass with flat and thin branches and leaves like an orchid, and the grass swayed in the wind.

This herb has hemostatic, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying properties. It's known for its rapid effects, surpassing even the more potent Yunnan Baiyao. If bitten by the most venomous seven-step snake in the mountains, chewing this herb and applying it to the wound can save your life.

Gu Nanxing walked forward, grabbed the grass root and pulled it out.

"嘤嘤嘤~"

A cloud of gray air emerged from the mound, "Little girl, leave this old man's grass behind."

This is not a mound but a grave. There is no tombstone, and the thick accumulation of pine needles makes it completely invisible.

Gu Nanxing frowned slightly, evil spirits were causing trouble.

This grass probably grew from seeds eaten by birds, which passed by and defecated on the grave. The grass is very tenacious and grows wherever it comes into contact with soil.

It wasn't really a ghost, just a negative energy that had gathered in a Feng Shui treasured place. Gu Nanxing pinched his fingers and fired a fireball.

"Ah~" The gray gas was burned out!

Gu Nanxing didn't even look back and continued to look for herbs as he went down the mountain.

When they reached halfway up the mountain, the coat containing the herbs was no longer full, so Gu Nanxing found a grass hole to hide them in, waiting to go up the mountain with his grandfather to look for herbs and find an excuse to take them out.

When he got home, the light in his mother's room was already on. Gu Nanxing went back to his room to take a nap and didn't get up until his grandmother called him.

Breakfast is a bowl of porridge, fried potato slices and pickled mustard greens.

Seeing Grandpa holding a small medicine hoe and picking up the basket to go out, Gu Nanxing rushed out of the kitchen after eating a few mouthfuls of food, "Grandpa, wait for me."

The concubine took out her small backpack and chased after him.

The old man gave his granddaughter several herbal medicine books. Since she was little, she has known more herbs than her aunts and her father. The playful little Nanxing often goes with him to look for herbs.

Old Mrs. Wang, who was feeding the chickens with a basin of crushed bran, was worried and reminded her to be careful.

Gu Nanxing nodded his head in agreement, waved his hand and walked out of the hospital.

After climbing the mountain, the old man walked in front, the bamboo pole in his hand stirring the grass and alerting the snakes along the way. He had almost found all the herbs in the middle of the mountain, and if he wanted to find the rare ones, he had to go deeper into the mountains.

I'm afraid I can't walk far with my granddaughter today, so let's go dig some white hyacinth.

When they reached the edge of the ravine and the dividing line between the other mountain, Gu Huaiming paused and warned, "Nanxing, be careful where you step, don't step into the ditch."

"Okay, grandpa." Gu Nanxing followed and strode forward.

She had put the herbs she hid in the morning at the bottom of her backpack. She and her grandfather would look for them separately later, otherwise she would have no excuse to take them out.

After climbing to the Bletilla striata forest, Gu Huaiming first asked his granddaughter about the functions and effects of Bletilla striata. Seeing that she answered fluently, he squatted down and started digging.

Gu Nanxing followed along and dug. On purpose, he damaged the white hyacinth plant in his hand, splitting the crystal ball at the root into two. "Ah~ I damaged Grandpa."

"Grandpa, I'm not very good at digging. Why don't I go over there and take a look?" Gu Nanxing pointed to the front.

Knowing that she couldn't sit still, Gu Huaiming waved his hand in disdain, like chasing away a mosquito, "Go away..."

Hee hee! Gu Nanxing picked up the small backpack and ran away quickly.

Gu Nanxing walked around the entire mountain quickly with his feet moving fast. He found a few rare orchids, but the ground was covered with white hyacinths. These things were sold cheaply in the market and were not worth much.

The sun climbed overhead and it was already noon.

Gu Nanxing walked back shaking the small backpack.

"Nanxing is back home, where are you?"

Hearing grandpa's voice from a distance, Gu Nanxing quickened his pace, "Here comes grandpa."

Following the sound, we came to the white hyacinth forest in the morning. Hehe... Grandpa dug two sacks of white hyacinth but didn't find any herbs.

Gu Nanxing tilted the basket to show his grandfather, "Look, Grandpa, I found many kinds of herbs."

Gu Huaiming glared at her with a dark face and shouted her to come back until his voice was hoarse. He wanted to scold her, but when he glanced at her and saw the precious herbs in the basket squeezed together like pig feed, he gasped!
"You little bitch, you can't leave wild ginseng like this. Several of its tentacles are broken! Oh, and the blood orchid! The self-poison flowers have all fallen off!"

"Ah~ Ahhhhhh~ Why didn't you ask grandpa to dig up so many precious herbs?"

When Gu Nanxing saw his crazy grandfather, he stepped back ten meters. It was so scary!
On the way back home, Gu Nanxing was scolded all the way home, and he was so timid that he didn't dare to say a word.

What? It's a worthless thing, what's the use of it? These need to be processed to have medicinal value. When digging, of course you can do it in whatever way is convenient.

"You bastard, not a single good person in your Gu family is good. The old ones are swindlers and deceitful, and the young ones are dishonest and don't admit their crimes after beating people up."

"I'll tear your mouth apart..."

Before the grandfather and grandson entered the yard, they heard roars of fighting from inside.

"Don't hit me, Mom. Let's talk it over."

Gu Nanxing recognized the voice as that of his uncle.

The two opened the door and went in. Gu Huaiming carefully hid the herbs in the utility room first, and then pulled his granddaughter into the main room.

The Zhou family came in full force today.

My eldest uncle and aunt were trying to pull two old ladies apart who were fighting, while my second aunt was arguing with my mother.

Sven's mother cried bitterly, but she was unforgiving. "Wuwu... The police officer sentenced Xiaomin, so you should admit it. Why are you coming to her house to ask for an explanation?"

Qian Xiuyun forcefully pulled her sister-in-law and said, "Come on, let's go to the police station and talk it over again."

The second uncle, who was drinking tea, stood up hurriedly when he saw the old man come in. "Uncle, you are finally back. Nanxing beat Xiaomin to the police station and hasn't come out yet. You need to give an explanation for this matter."
