Chapter 135

Got it!

Wang Yao thought about a licorice root called Kang wood, which could be used to get rid of the pests. It was a kind of wooden plant as well as licorice root. It grew extremely slowly and could distribute a special smell to drive the pests away. It also had other wonderful effects.

"What are you doing here?!" Someone broke Wang Yao's thoughts. It was Wang Ru, who had a knife one hand and a rooster in the other. It seemed that Wang Ru was going to kill the rooster.

"Sis, are you going to kill the rooster?" asked Wang Yao.

"Yeah, I tried to kill it twice now, but it is still alive! I can't find its artery. Since you're some sort of pharmacist, tell me where its artery is," said Wang Ru.

"You tried to kill it twice and couldn't find the artery?" Wang Yao took a look at the rooster. He seemed to be able to see the pain and despair in its eyes. This was torture, even worse than death.

"Sis, I'm a pharmacist, not a vet. You don't need to find its artery to kill it. You are simply torturing the rooster. How about getting Mom and Dad to deal with it?" suggested Wang Yao.

"No way, I don't have many chances to kill a rooster," said Wang Ru.

"You are just meddling with it," said Wang Yao.

Because Wang Ru couldn't kill the rooster, Wang Yao and his family had chicken soup at night instead of at noon.

Wang Yao stayed at home for a short while before leaving for Nanshan hill. As he was walking towards the hill, he saw the party secretary of the county with two men in suits. They were looking at something the party secretary was pointing at. It was the abandoned cottage of a previous village production team.

"Yes, this location is suitable," said a plump middle-aged man standing in the middle.

What are they doing here? Wang Yao didn't pay a lot of attention to them. He turned around instead and headed to Nanshan hill.

Wang Yao opened the system after he had returned to Nanshan hill. He found Kang wood in the medicine shop. One Kang wood cost 100 bonus points, and Wang Yao didn't have enough points at the moment. He had to find an alternative way to get Kang wood.

He had planted some mint and pungent plants, which could be used to get rid of pests. But those herbs wouldn't be able to remove all the pests completely. Wang Yao required other methods to stop the pests from breeding and spreading. For this purpose, Wang Yao read The Catalogue of Magic Herbs again to look for suitable licorice roots to kill pests. He finally found one.

Miasma grass: Removes miasma and kills poisonous insects.

According to The Catalogue of Magic Herbs, miasma grass initially grew in areas full of miasma and poisonous insects. But, there were no poisonous insects around it. The "killing poisonous insects" part meant it could kill parasites inside the human body as well.

Wang Yao could also purchase miasma grass from the medicine shop, which would cost him five herbal seeds and 50 bonus points. Those were all that Wang Yao had at the moment.

Still, Wang Yao didn't hesitate to use up all he had to buy the miasma grass. He then picked five different locations inside the herbal field to plant the miasma grass seeds and watered them with ancient spring water.

I hope this will work. The only thing is I don't have many bonus points left. I need to get some common herbs.

Wang Yao managed to gain some herbs in the afternoon, and he gave all these herbs to the medicine shop to exchange for rewarding points. He then started to brew a decoction for Zhou Xiong's son but found that he didn't have enough herbs. So, he called Li Maoshuang from the medicine shop in town to get some more. Fortunately, there were still some left in the stock.
