38 Please Call Me Shennong Li

The sky had lighted up.

A wisp of green smoke was mixed in the morning mist, not very conspicuous.

Inside the treehouse, a pile of fire was burning. Because of the enormous gaps, the ventilation here was excellent, and the rising smoke could quickly dissipate.

Beside the fire, Li Siwen was roasting the two Iron Ring Black Snakes.

When he activated his Spirit Vision and went to cut the tree last night, he bumped into another serving of breakfast.

As for the fire, it really cost him quite a sizeable amount of effort. He used up three Stamina Points before successfully making the fire. Therefore, from now on, he would kill anyone who said that it was easy to make a fire by rubbing wood against wood.

After eating about 7.5 kilograms of snake meat, Li Siwen went out and carried a few piles of rock back from the flooded valley. Then, using the embers of the fire, he built a simple stove. As for the more advanced operation of preserving the fire, he didn't plan to do it yet. Except for the lack of skill, it was mainly because of the fear of exposing himself. He would rather drill wood once a day to get fire. Maybe he would become proficient at it by practicing every day.

Next, he went out to carry back some large rocks, medium-sized rocks, and some small rocks, blocking out all the gaps in the treehouse was within a height of two meters.

Yup, sense of security+0.01.

Smiling towards the Sun, Li Siwen carried his ax and blade with him to the river to obtain water. Then, he patrolled the territory more meticulously, and also collect all kinds of weeds and wildflowers in this area, including their roots.

After going one circle, he had a deeper understanding of this area now.

"The area that can be used and cultivated into farmland is not small. It is about 150 meters long from north to south, and about 180 meters long from east to west. If I want to farm, I need to cut down at least 2,000 trees. But with so many Vitality Points, why should I still farm? Isn't being a woodcutter much better."

Li Siwen laughingly thought to himself. But the next second, the image of the boorish Feudal Lord appeared in his mind. Instantly, it was as if someone threw a bucket of cold water over him. If he got complacent, he would end up losing his life.

"Spat! Weeding and farming are the best."

Carrying a bunch of weeds and wildflowers, he jumped into the treehouse and laid them on a flat piece of rock.

Then, Li Siwen took off his shirt and checked the wound on his left arm.

His body diluted and neutralized the poison that could kill a normal person. Only the wound remained. His Health also couldn't recover fully too.

"Then let me become Shennong this time and try out a hundred herbs." [1. Shennong is a mythical deity who tested hundreds of different herbs to find medicines for different diseases.]

Choosing a weed that looked more pleasing to his eyes, he rushed it together with its stalk and roots, then applied it on the wound.

Next, Li Siwen opened the attribute bar and checked for any changes, at the same time sensing for changes on his wound.

At first, there wasn't any feeling. After a few minutes or so, the surroundings of the wound obviously hurt. Then, it became extremely itchy. Lastly, after ten plus minutes, it was as swollen as a bun.

As for the attribute bar, his Stamina started diluting.

"What the heck, it's poisonous! And the toxicity is not low either, I need to spend more effort on grooming this." Li Siwen was surprised and remembered the appearance of this weed in his mind, naming it the Iron Ring Poison Grass.

Then, he patiently waited for half an hour to make sure all of the toxic was neutralized by his body.

Next, Li Siwen insipidly chose another weed, crushed it, applied, checked its effect, exchanged for another one, and repeated this process non-stop.

When it reached the evening, he had tested all 27 weeds. Also, there were six more wounds on his arm. After all, he needed to test the stop bleeding effect too.

The result was not bad. Out of the 27 weeds, 25 were poisonous, and one of them was extremely poisonous. It directly caused Li Siwen to have dizziness, coma, vomiting, and high fever. It deducted as much as five points from his health.

He named this poisonous grass Iron Wolf Poison Grass.

Then, there were three medium poisonous weeds. They were the Iron Ring Poisonous Grass that could cause irritation and swelling of wounds, the Iron Dog Poisonous Grass that could cause numbness and blueness to the wound, and the Iron Head Poisonous Grass that could make the wound bleed non-stop.

As for the remaining 21 poisonous weeds, they weren't able to cause his Health Points to drop, but only to cause slight numbness, itchiness, and pain. Basically, he still needed more testing on them.

As for the last two non-poisonous weeds, Li Siwen classified them as beneficial.

The first one had leaves that were jagged-looking. After he mashed the roots, the white sap of the weeds would have analgesic, anti-itching, and anti-swelling effects when applied to the wound, but it wouldn't restore health. However, Li Siwen suspected that this weed should be able to reduce inflammation, so he named it the Iron Teeth Anti-Inflammatory Grass.

The second weed was very inconspicuous, small, short roots, a few spots on the leaves, hairy edges, and rather ugly. Li Siwen only discovered it after trying out the other 26 weeds.

At that time, he just finished testing the Iron Head Poisonous Grass, his wound was bleeding profusely. Therefore, he directly mashed up the last weed and applied it to the wound. A miracle then happened. In just ten plus seconds, the bleeding stopped.

This discovery caused Li Siwen to be elated. Therefore, he cut another wound on himself to test again. It was very effective.

"great, Iron Spots Blood-stopping Grass, this name can only belong to you!"

After finishing with this, Li Siwen only had seven Health Points left, and it seemed to be still dropping.

However, he wasn't in the least worried. He extracted the five Vitality Points from the green orb and added all of them to Health.

Therefore, his Health Points recovered to 12 points, it felt extremely comfortable.

After that, Li Siwen just hid inside the treehouse, observed his attribute bar, and also sensed changes to his wounds at the same time. Combining the result from both, the result would be more clear and obvious.

After half a night or so, he had a high fever, about 40 degrees. A few of his wounds even have symptoms of suppuration and ulceration. To be honest, Li Siwen was a bit panicking now.

But as his Stamina Points continued to be depleted and only five out of 22 points remained in the morning, the fever finally retreated.

"Great, success in the first war!"

Li Siwen climbed out of the treehouse, feeling his body shaking. Half was from hunger while half was the side effect of a high fever. The wounds on his arm were still in a state of suppuration and festering. A group of red-headed flies flew around from not sure where, buzzing around him, and rushing down fiercely from time to time, preparing to drop their offsprings on this paradise.

Using a rag to bandage his wounds, Li Siwen carried his ax and rushed towards a tree that required two people to hug it. Throwing his level three woodcutting skill on it, he instantly started hacking away.

His wounds naturally tore open and yellowed blood started dripping. He didn't care though, continuing to cut down the tree and gaining three Vitality Points. Then he started looking for the Iron Teeth Anti-Inflammatory Grass. Luckily, his memory wasn't bad. He remembered where he plucked it from yesterday, so it was easy to find it.

Finding the tallest and biggest looking Iron Teeth Anti-Inflammatory Grass, Li Siwen grabbed it and used one Vitality Point to enhance its growing speed.

The next second, a soft white light flashed, and this Iron Teeth Anti-Inflammatory Grass started growing at a speed visible to the eye. Originally only five centimeters tall, it became half a meter tall in a short while. At the same time, it bloomed and bore fruit.

Digging out this Iron Spots Blood-Stopping Grass by the roots, Li Siwen fastened the growth of another Iron Spots Blood-Stopping Grass, then returned to the treehouse. Opening up the bandage and washing the wound with clean water, he mashed half of the fruit from the Iron Spots Blood-Stopping Grass and applied it on some wounds which were getting worse. Then, he mashed the root, applied it on another spot, and did the same for the leaves.

After all, experiments needed to be rigorous.
