Huo Yao flipped through the books and took out a book titled 'Shennong's Herbal Classics'. She pulled a stool over and sat down.
Shennong's book originated from Shennong. There were more than 300 kinds of herbs recorded in it, including the medicinal properties and toxicity of each herb. There were very detailed distinctions between them. It was one of the most detailed ancient Chinese medicine books passed down by the ancestors.
There were various editions on the market, but they were all introductions to the basics of medicine. The original text had been translated and copied by later generations, so it had no value as a reference.
The book in Huo Yao's hands was the most complete one that had been passed down. Huo Yao had spent a lot of effort to steal this book from her clan last year.
It was so inconvenient to not have a courier in this run-down place.
Huo Yao suppressed her dissatisfaction and flipped open the book. She thought for a moment and flipped to page 265. She remembered that this was the page that recorded the Seven Leaf Lotus.
She took a look and was right.
The sketch on the yellowed page was exactly the same as the Seven Leaf Lotus that Min Yu had given her. There were annotations at the bottom of the sketch, and the properties of the herbs were written down.
She had read this book when she was very young. At that time, she was in her rebellious phase. Although she had memorized it, she could only understand half of it. In addition, she had learned a lot of things and it was complicated, so this book was put on the back burner.
It was only when she came to this body that she picked up the book due to the old lady's illness.
Although there were annotations for every herb in the book, she had to go through all sorts of experiments to fully understand the properties of the herbs.
Huo Yao read the two pages repeatedly. She remained squatting for a long time before she closed the book. There was only one thought on her mind.
She flipped through the other unique books in the box. She quickly skimmed through them, but they were useless. She quickly closed the box, got up, and put it back in the cabinet.
She locked the cabinet and placed the key under the flowerpot.
Huo Yao walked out of the old lady's bedroom. Her mind was filled with thoughts about the herbs. She walked to the living room and glanced around. Min Yu was gone, so she asked casually. "Grandma, where's Min Yu?"
"Min Yu took a call and went out. He will be back tonight," replied the old lady.
"Oh." Huo Yao nodded and continued. "Oh yes, about my stove..."
From the moment she asked about the books, the old lady guessed that she would also ask about the strange stove. She pointed to the backyard and said, "I've put them in the small house in the backyard. You can go and find them yourself."
Huo Yao nodded and went to the backyard.
The old lady shook her head as she watched Huo Yao leave. She casually said to Huo Yulin, "I don't know where she got her hands on this strange stove last year. She fiddles with it whenever she has the time. Her hobbies are totally different from other high school students.
Huo Yulin recalled the equipment in the room at the stove and guessed that it must be a stove for making medicine. of it. He smiled and said, "It is rare for a person to have a hobby.
"Yes, she used to be a bit boring, but after a serious illness, she suddenly seemed to be enlightened and became a lot more sensible …" The old lady couldn't help but wipe her eyes as she thought of the past.
Huo Yulin wasn't very good at comforting people. Seeing that she was a little sad, he raised his hand and patted her back.
