Chapter 17
Yun Sheng prepared some porridge and went to the storage room .
The two headed puppy just had a severe surgery and this world didn’t have tonics to replenish the blood although Yun Sheng had properly handled the surgery . Yun Sheng thought that it wouldn’t wake up for a while after the puppy just had lost a lot of blood .
Who knew that as soon as she entered through the door, a bark was heard .
Wasn’t that the two-headed puppy?
Now that the puppy had one less head, the right head was slightly crooked and the eyes were clear like glass .
The hair removed for surgery had regrown a short layer overnight . Although the puppy was thin at this point, it very much looked like a modern dachshund .
“You’re awake . You have a strong vitality little buddy,” perhaps it was because Yun Sheng had saved it that the puppy was less hostile towards her . But when Yun Sheng placed the bowl of porridge down, it refused to eat .
“You don’t like to eat it? If you don’t eat, your wound won’t become better,” Yun Sheng sighed .
Perhaps, she’ll have to go to the hunter’s to buy some raw minced meat back .
“Not good, I only focused on the matters concerning a summoner but totally forgot to go to the temple to report!” . After becoming the assistant child for the temple, Yun Sheng had to go to the temple for eight hours everyday to help Master Yang classify and gather herbs .
Yun Sheng rushed out of her home and after she left, the puppy looked suspiciously at the bowl of porridge .
Just now, that human had said that if it didn’t eat, it wouldn’t be good for its wound .
It hesitated, sniffed the bowl of porridge, and revealed its disgust .
When Yun Sheng had arrived to the temple, it was already almost noon . Master Yang who had a sullen face severely reprimanded her .
“Go and tidy up the medicine room . Before sunset, sort out all the herbs and if you don’t finish by that time, don’t bother receiving this month’s wages” . Also, the innermost storage room, don’t go in, or else … “ . The new magician’s face was grim and ordinary children after seeing him would probably be afraid to come near him .
Earlier when he spoke, there was a chill in his eyes .
Yun Sheng’s heart after being stared by him, became disheveled as she pretended to be busy while cleverly nodded .
The medicine room nearly has thousand kinds of different medicine, lets see how she’ll sort them out within eight hours .
A young girl unexpectedly let him, a great magician wait! She really did not know heaven and earth ah!
After Master Yang had left, Ye Beiming came out from the side .
Yun Sheng looked at the medicine room and saw the thousand kinds of herbs . She frowned, this month’s wage really isn’t easy to take ah .
Fortunately, Yun Sheng had experience organizing and sorting out different herbs .
She distinguished each herb according to her sense and wrote them down in a notebook .
Unconsciously, the sky outside has turned dark and Yun Sheng’s nose whiffed a scent that drifted .
Her belly couldn’t help and started growling . Yun Sheng then just remembered that she didn’t even eat breakfast yet when she rushed out of the house this morning .
The source of the aroma came from Ye Beiming who was by the window .
His hands held a big, fluffy, soft steamed bun .
“Little wildcat, are you hungry? Do you want to eat ah,” Ye Beiming blinked at Yun Sheng . His misty eyes carried a mischievous twinkle .
Yunsheng meditated and calmed down her heart . One can kill but not humiliate, won’t eat the food .
A quarter of an hour later, the words said were long gone . Dignity was precious, freedom was more important, if replaced for food then both can be tossed away .
Just as she stretched her hands to prepare to snatch the food away from Ye Beiming, the latter very elegantly took a bit out of the steamed bun .
“You!” Yun Sheng was so angry that she was out of breath .
“You’re too slow . At this speed, if you see that Huo Yan village’s girl a hundred times, you’ll die a hundred times . You won’t be so lucky every time,” Ye Beiming’s hand appeared a roasted beast leg and gave it to Yun Sheng .
Yun Sheng hesitated and looked at the leg in her hands . She recognized that it was a leg of a beast . It was at a price that even the village chief wasn’t likely to eat several times .
“Just with your small stature, if you don’t eat a bit of beast meat your physical strength won’t improve,” the beast meat helped in strengthening one’s body . Yun Sheng never had eaten it before .
The smell of the food was too tempting so Yun Sheng disregarded her appearance and chewed the beast leg . She thought of the puppy at home and slowed down her speed at eating the leg .
“You better eat quickly . I stole that leg from Master Yang . If he found out, it would be bad” . Just as Ye Beiming’s voice fell, Yun Sheng let out a violent coughed and her black eyes almost popped out .
“You don’t need to glare at me . If you’re worried about being discovered, hunt a few beasts from the mountain will be sufficient . But let me first say that whoever ate it will be responsible . I will not help you,” said Ye Beiming . He flipped over, leaped and disappeared without a trace, only leaving behind an angry Yun Sheng .
This damn blind man was even more cunning than a fox!
Yun Sheng viciously took a bite at the beast leg as if Ye Beiming was that beast leg .
But then again, the blind youth’s skill was pretty good .
Yun Sheng soon discovered that after consuming the leg, a wave of heat spreaded across her body .
It was heard that demonic beast meat can enhance one’s fitness . Seems like it was true . Yun Sheng decided that she’ll go to the mountain to hunt some back early next morning .
Before sunset, Yun Sheng was respectfully waiting at the room as Master Yang approached .
A beautiful handwriting listing out all kinds of herbs showed up in a booklet .
“Master Yang, there are 988 kinds of herbs in the temple . Among them includes more than 50 kinds of rotten and moldy herbs . I have organized the other 938 kinds and placed them in different drawers . Each drawer has a corresponding number to the herb” .
Master Yang took a look and was surprised . He deliberately made things difficult for Yun Sheng . Who knew that she actually used a few hours to organize the herbs!
After checking a few more times and found that everything was correct, Master Yang’s expression warmed up a bit .
He thought to himself “Unexpectedly in this small mountain villager, there still is such a well-versed child in medicine . It’s a pity that she comes from a lowly family and has no magic . Otherwise if she specialized in magical medicine, then she perhaps can inherit my mantle . ”
Master Yang pondered for a moment . After checking and found no fault, he allowed Yun Sheng to go back .
“Master Yang, I noticed that there’s no more fang feng cao (windproof grass) . This is a commonly used medicine the villagers use to treat colds . There’s a lot of them in the mountains . Why don’t I pick some up from the mountains tomorrow?” Yun Sheng asked as if she was a good child .
“Ok . You’re still young so going to the mountains by yourself is inconvenient . I’ll let Beiming accompany you . ” Master Yang thought for a bit and agreed to Yun Sheng’s request .
After Yun Sheng had returned home, she noticed that the porridge bowl that she had left this morning was still full . Hence, she placed the leftover beast leg meat in front of the puppy .
The little puppy looked at Yun Sheng and finally couldn’t help but went forward and ate the food up .
Yun Sheng’s mouth revealed a small smile .
