Chapter 72: On the Eve of Leaving Seclusion, Sect’s Revenue Soars
Lu Yuanshan felt immense joy in his heart the first time he saw the mature Moon Grass upon arriving at the Medicinal Garden.
"Sect Leader, look here."
She Qingqing pointed to the top of a Moon Grass plant, introducing it carefully.
"As long as the top of the Moon Grass has sprouted a crescent-shaped bud of pea-yellow color, it indicates the Moon Grass is mature and can be harvested."
"These Moon Grass plants have all grown to a height of two inches, reaching the growth limit. We must harvest them in the next few days, or else, we will miss the optimal harvesting time, and the moons will wither and fall to the soil, losing their medicinal properties."
The harvesting of Moon Grass is similar to Spirit Rice; it must be done promptly within a few days of maturity without delay.
Upon learning the situation, Lu Yuanshan dared not hesitate any longer.
Though only a hundred Moon Grass plants were cultivated, and the resulting Moon Grass was also in this number, it wouldn’t take too long to harvest, a day would suffice, yet Lu Yuanshan couldn’t keep calm.
In a little over a month, other spirit medicines in the Medicinal Garden, such as Clear Heart Grass, Purple Cloud Reishi, and Profound Dark Grass, will also mature, and it won’t be convenient to deal with them all at once then.
Thus, on that same day, Lu Yuanshan called on She Qingqing, Li Weixiao, and the three of them worked together to harvest the hundred Moon Grass plants.
Once harvested, Moon Grass can be preserved using the Spirit Medicine Box for about three years; its shelf life is still quite long.
With the maturity of the Moon Grass, by time calculation, the great harvest of the Spirit Field is next.
