Chapter 878 - Asking Elder Pigu (1/2)
The next morning, Lin Mu left the Sleepscape upon waking up and went to look for the supreme elder. He reckoned the best person to ask about something like this might be the man currently in charge.
”Oh? Brother Lin Mu is ready to finally go out?” Hua Langya questioned.
For the past couple of days, Lin Mu had not appeared in the sect and had stayed in the courtyard assigned to him. To others, it was just Lin Mu resting and thus they didn't mind it at all.
”Ah yes. I've had enough of rest and think it's time for a little outing.” Lin Mu answered.
”That's good. Hopefully, it was enough to for you to recover. But if Brother Lin Mu says so, it is alright.” Hua Langya spoke. ”Though where do you intend to go?” he asked.
”That's what I am here for. I wanted to ask you if you know of any spirit plants or herb that are sentient.” Lin Mu questioned.
Hearing this, Hua Langya raised his brows.
”Hmm… a sentient spirit herb is very rare and hard to find.” The Supreme elder said while rubbing his beard.
”Does the Noon Grass sect have any?” Lin Mu asked, just in case.
”Ahaha, if we had any, I would have gladly offered you them. But unfortunately we don't. We did have one a long time ago, but it was used in the refinement of a pill and no longer exists.
After all, the most common reason for obtaining such a spirit herb would be to refine a pill. Rearing them on our own is not something the Noon Grass sect has the capability to do. We aren't specialized in pill refinement, thus we don't grow any spirit herbs or fruits that are of high quality.
Rather, we just go and harvest them from the forest since we live next to it. That's one of the benefits of being so close to the Great Southern forest.” Hua Langya replied.
”That's understanding.” Lin Mu said with a nod.
”Though, do you have any clue as to where one can be found? I mean, there should be some in the forest, right?” Lin Mu questioned.
The supreme elder furrowed his brows before pulling out a communication jade slip. He held onto it and closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them again.
”I've called Elder Pigu to help you. He handles the spirit herb farms that we have in our sect and is also the head of the Pill pavilion. He is more knowledgeable in this regard than me, since I'm mostly in seclusion or handling internal matters of the sect.” Hua Langya answered.
”Very well.” Lin Mu replied and waited for the Elder to arrive.
He had already met Elder Pigu before during the banquet and was thus acquainted with the man.
Five minutes passed as Elder Pigu finally arrived at the hall.
”Greetings Supreme Elder, Brother Lin Mu.” Elder Pigu spoke.
