Chapter 637 - 576, Waiting for Nothing_1
Daohua brought some medicine to Gu Jian to dress his wounds, and as she applied it, she asked, "Master, are you sure that there’s Lingzhi at Ningmen Pass?" Polygonum multiflorum is indeed available, as she found some the last time she searched for gold mines.
Gu Jian nodded, "I’ve encountered a few herb gatherers before; their ancestors had found it there." After speaking, he checked the injuries on his body.
"Most of my injuries are just scrapes," he said, "I’ll rest for a couple of days and then go to take a look."
Daohua said hurriedly, "It’s best if you take it easy, Master. Just now, when I was getting the medicine, Granny asked how you were."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jian became restless, "You didn’t tell your sister about my injury, did you?"
Daohua, "How could I dare to say that? If Granny found out you were injured, who knows how anxious she would become."
Gu Jian heaved a sigh of relief, "It’s good you didn’t say anything."
For years, his sister had felt that he was burdened by her, feeling very guilty; if she learned that he got hurt while collecting herbs for her, who knows how heartbroken she would be.
After thinking for a while, Daohua added, "Granny’s medicine can’t be interrupted. Since we are certain that there’s Lingzhi and Polygonum multiflorum deep in the mountains near Ningmen Pass, I’ll go look for it. You should stay at home and keep Granny company."
Gu Jian frowned, not very willing.
