Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 31

Retaliation (1)
Not knowing that Duan Sida had taken away her salt, Duan Yixin was busy collecting medicinal herbs. As she walked deeper into the forest, she discovered more and rarer medicinal herbs.

Duan Yixin walked for more than thirty minutes and suddenly stopped in her track. Her eyes widened in surprise as she saw dark green leaves sprouting from the stems with a bunch of red berries in the middle. She quickly knelt down and inspected the plants carefully.

After a while, she smiled and said, “Today is really my lucky day. I can even find wild ginseng here.”

Duan Yixin took out a small hoe from the bamboo basket and carefully dug out the ginseng. Because the part that contains the medicinal properties is the root, she worked carefully to avoid damaging the roots.

More than forty minutes later, Duan Yixin finally dug up the large ginseng. Judging from the size of the ginseng, it must be at least three hundred years old.

Duan Yixin picked a few leaves, cleaned the soil on the ginseng, then carefully wrapped it with larger leaves and put it in the bamboo basket. Standing up, she massaged her sore waist and legs for a while, then picked up the bamboo basket and continued to look for more medicinal herbs.

After finding ginseng, Duan Yixin discovered another rare plant. She looked carefully at the dark purple flower with green stems and was surprised to find that it was indeed a rare medicinal plant called Bei Mu. The bulbs of Bei Mu are not only edible but can also treat coughs, phlegm, and fever.

Looking at the Bei Mu scattered on the ground, Duan Yixin smiled and collected them one after another. Although Bei Mu is a rare plant that has become extinct in her original world, no one picks it in this world, and it thrives and grows in large quantities in the forest.

When she had harvested a lot of Bei Mu, Duan Yixin decided to look around to see if she could find more medicinal herbs before going back. Having made her decision, she made a mark on a nearby large rock. If she needs to collect more Bei Mu in the future, she knows where to go.

After leaving that area, Duan Yixin continued walking deeper into the forest and found a violet-brown plant with an upright stem. Looking at the plant that was more than one meter high, Duan Yixin took a closer look and saw that there were many seeds on it. Duan Yi was overjoyed when she recognized this plant as Qing Hao.

Looking at the large area covered by Qing Hao, Duan Yixin’s smile grew. Today was a really lucky day for her. After finding Bei Mu, she also found Qing Hao. While both are used to treat fever, Qing Hao can treat malaria.

Duan Yixin doesn’t know if there is malaria in this world, but she still needs to be prepared in case she needs to develop drugs to treat malaria in the future.

After collecting enough Qing Hao, Duan Yixin found that it was getting dark. She took out the flashlight from the warehouse and turned it on, illuminating the surroundings. Holding the flashlight, she walked back home.

When Duan Yixin pushed open the low wooden door, the sun had already set. She walked into the front yard, placed the bamboo basket filled with medicinal herbs on the wooden table in the yard, and went to wash her face and hands.

While she was drawing water from the well, Duan Yixin noticed footprints on the ground. From their size, she knew the footprints belonged to a man. She placed the old wooden bucket she used to draw water on the ground and examined the footprints.

While staring at the footprints, Duan Yixin’s mind was moving at a fast speed. After a while, her eyes darkened, and she whispered, “Is he here to kill me, or is he here to kidnap me? Should I lure him out?”

After thinking for a long time, Duan Yixin stood up and went to wipe her body. Knowing that Duan Sida sneaked into her house while she was away, Duan Yixin did not dare to take a shower. After briefly cleaning up, she carried the bamboo basket into the bedroom.

The medicinal herbs she discovered today are very valuable, so Duan Yixin decided not to process them for now but to store them in the liquid chip warehouse. She would wait until Duan Sida was caught before taking them out to process them.

After putting everything of value into the warehouse, she went to the kitchen to make dinner. Unfortunately, she discovered that her salt was missing.

She rubbed her chin and thought, ‘I’m sure he didn’t just come here to steal my salt. There must be another reason why he came when I wasn’t at home. Could it be that Duan Sida is hiding nearby and can’t return to his home?’

With this in mind, Duan Yixin left the kitchen and walked into her bedroom. After closing the door and window, she took out a box from the warehouse. Inside the box, there is a set of equipment for refining medicine.

As a doctor, she doesn’t have the same fighting skills as Captain Yu, but she has a deep understanding of medicinal materials and their properties. As the ancients said, medicine contains thirty percent of poison. Since Duan Sida still wanted to harm her after she let him go, then he couldn’t blame her for defending against him.

Duan Yixin took out several types of medicinal materials from the warehouse and began to mix and refine them. Two hours later, she looked at the white powder in a glass jar. Thinking about the effect of the white powder, the corners of her lips raised slightly.

She then cleared the table and put the tools and the remaining medicinal materials back in the warehouse. Holding the glass jar, Duan Yixin left the bedroom.
