1836 Are You Still Short of Disciples 3 (2/2)
”Then this?”
”Moon Gazing Grass.”
”What are its uses?”
”Stems bleeding.”
”Then…..” Yue Ye was like a child so thirsty for knowledge as she squatted beside Jun Wu Xie, opening up every single page of the journal and diligently raising questions to ask Jun Wu Xie. And after Jun Wu Xie responded, she would then carefully remember it in her heart.
Jun Wu Xie was showing a rare moment of patience as she analysed everything in that journal for her once and she suddenly had an illusion that she was teaching little kids.
Ever since Yue Ye had gotten the journal, she had always researched on her own in secret. She had never dared to ask anyone and she did not dare to let Elder Yue find out about the book's existence but merely depend on her own brain to slowly chew on what was written about every type of herb that was recorded in the journal. Even though the records were piecemeal and not complete, it had been to her, something that she treasured most.
If not for this journal, she might not have been able to escape the Shadow Moon Palace Lord's evil claws.
Under the moonlight, the backs of Yue Ye and Jun Wu Xie showed them squatting shoulder to shoulder by the flowerbeds, the two small figures looking to be in great harmony.
”You know so much. You can concoct medicines?” Yue Ye had listened for a long while and her legs were already growing numb from squatting but she still could not bear to stop till she flipped the book to the very last page before she raised up her head still unsatiated as she looked at Jun Wu Xie.
”Mm.”
”Do you have great ability in concocting medicine? You mustn't lie to me. Even the physicians in the Shadow Moon Palace were not able to detect the things I learnt from this book but you could tell with just once glance that the Palace Lord had been poisoned. You must be really good at it.” Yue Ye said as she looked at Jun Wu Xie with certainty.
Jun Wu Xie had no choice but to nod her head.
Yue Ye then gulped and looked at Jun Wu Xie with fervent eyes.
”Then are you….. still short of disciples?”
