Chapter 25: Willow Cutting Success

After another night, Han Li got up early in the morning and walked towards the medicinal garden, wanting to observe whether there were any changes in those few medicinal herbs.

Before walking into the medicinal field, he suddenly smelled several rich medicinal fragrances.

Han Li was slightly startled, but then his heart moved: "Could it be..."

He couldn't help but quicken his pace and finally arrived in front of those few medicinal herbs that emitted strong fragrances.

Are these the medicinal herbs from yesterday? Han Li couldn't believe his eyes and slapped his face, which still carried a bit of sleepiness, several times with his hands until it hurt before stopping his self-abuse.

"The leaves of this Yellow Dragon Grass are a bit purple, the Bitter Lotus actually opened nine petals, and the skin of the Forget-Worry Fruit has turned black. Haha! Haha!" Han Li couldn't hold back anymore. Even if he could usually be as calm as water, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh loudly at this time.

"I've hit the jackpot this time. Overnight, these medicinal herbs that only had one or two years of medicinal properties have all turned into the appearance of more than ten years. Looking at the color of these leaves, the shape of the fruits, and the fragrance of the petals, they are completely rare medicinal herbs that have matured for many years." Han Li checked the medicinal herbs again carefully and determined that they were completely consistent with what was said in the medicinal book, and they were truly precious medicinal materials that had been around for many years.

"If I use this method to ripen medicinal herbs, wouldn't I have as many precious medicinal materials as I want! And I can also sell the medicinal herbs I can't use to others. In this way, I can earn as much silver as I want." Han Li couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart anymore and began to let his imagination run wild.

The more Han Li thought, the more excited he became, and the further he thought, feeling that he had really picked up a treasure this time. He suddenly did several somersaults on the ground. At this time, he no longer had his usual calm appearance, and the way he expressed his excitement was exactly the same as a fourteen or fifteen-year-old youth.

After a long time, Han Li finally sobered up, his brain returned to his usual alertness, and he began to consider some difficulties he would face in eating this big pie that fell from the sky.

First of all, these medicinal herbs seem to have no problems from the appearance, but the actual medicinal properties still need to be tested. After all, they became like this after absorbing those strange liquids. Who knows if they have any mutated components in them? He had seen the miserable ending of those rabbits yesterday with his own eyes, so he'd better be careful.

Secondly, the green liquid in the mysterious small bottle has been used up. I don't know if there will be strange phenomena continuing to produce these liquid drops. Don't let it be a one-time thing. I have to confirm it again tonight.

If there are no problems in the above two aspects, I still have to grasp the details and steps of this method of ripening medicinal herbs concretely and completely control this incredible method.

After deep thought, Han Li concluded the above several problems that needed to be solved. Without solving these difficulties, this big pie was just a flower in the fog and a moon in the water for him.

After considering everything, Han Li began to take action.

He first went to the big kitchen outside the valley, asked the manager to buy two lively gray-haired rabbits again. Han Li's move made the kitchen manager both happy and somewhat puzzled. Why does this youth always buy live rabbits back? Does he want to slaughter the rabbits himself to practice cooking?

Han Li didn't care what others thought. This time he didn't tie the rabbits in the medicinal garden, but tied the rabbits at the door of his room, so that he could observe their changes at any time.

Then he went to the medicinal field, carefully picked the medicinal herbs that had been ripened, made them into several medicines that could strengthen muscles and bones, and mixed the prepared medicines into the food the rabbits liked to eat most, feeding them to the rabbits three times a day to test whether these medicinal herbs were poisonous.

After doing all this, Han Li waited anxiously for the arrival of the night. After he felt that time passed very slowly, the night finally arrived as he expected.

As soon as it got dark, Han Li ran outside the house, took the small bottle out of the bag, and placed it on the ground, while he himself focused his attention on looking forward to the changes in the bottle.

A quarter of an hour passed, and the bottle had no movement.

Two quarters of an hour passed, and the bottle still had no movement.

Three quarters of an hour...

As time passed, Han Li's heart sank lower and lower. He waited until it was almost dawn, and the bottle still had no strange movement.

He was completely dejected. Is this bottle really a one-time consumable? Or did he do something wrong?

Han Li forced himself to cheer up and looked at the surrounding environment.

"There is nothing suspicious, except that it is a bit dark." Han Li said to himself.

He suddenly froze. He suddenly looked up at the sky. The sky was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything. The sentence "It is a bit dark" suddenly awakened Han Li.

"Could it be because it is a cloudy day, and there are no stars or moon?" Han Li remembered that the strange changes in the bottle in the past all happened on sunny days, when the sky was unobstructed and he could see the stars and moon, while today it was a gloomy weather, with the whole sky covered by dark clouds.

Han Li had a plan in his heart, his spirit was slightly lifted, and he saw that the sky was a bit white, knowing that nothing would happen tonight, so he put the bottle away, preparing to try again after the sky cleared up.

But to Han Li's surprise, the sky not only didn't clear up in the next half month, but it rained continuously, and this weather lasted until now.

Han Li looked at the soft drizzle outside, feeling very depressed in his heart. The more he waited for the weather to clear up, the more it rained endlessly, without any intention of stopping.

He looked back at the two rabbits avoiding the rain in the house. Their lively appearance made Han Li even more depressed. Since these two rabbits ate the food mixed with medicine, not only were there no problems, but they were even more energetic than before. In these ten-plus days, Han Li had to observe them carefully every day to ensure that the rabbits had no symptoms of poisoning, but instead became more robust because they ate the medicine that strengthened muscles and bones.

This good result didn't make Han Li happy, but made him feel somewhat worried about gains and losses, and he had no way to calm himself down. For him, whether the bottle could produce green liquid again had become the key to all these problems, and this lingering broken weather made this answer delayed, which made Han Li feel extremely depressed!
