Ye Lingyue glanced over and saw no medicinal herbs, only a large number of smooth pebbles washed by the running water.

Looking at the surrounding terrain, since it is near a river valley, there are a lot of reeds. Even if there is an ambush hidden near the reeds, it is difficult to find it.

Seeing Ye Lingyue's serious expression, those magic soldiers thought she didn't know what Moonlight Grass was about, so they said proudly.

"Moonlight grass is a nocturnal grass. It only appears on moonlit nights. The more moonlight there is, the more moongrass will appear. Today is fourteenth, and these two or three days are the best time to collect moonlight grass.

time."

These magic soldiers have been following Vice General Wang on their search missions for several years. Every time they collect medicinal herbs during this period, they always return with a full load.

They determined that Ye Lingyue didn't know the rules of collecting moonlight grass.

"But as far as I know, moonlight grass tends to attract a ferocious beast called the Moon Demon Lizard. On moonlit nights, especially around the full moon, the Moon Demon Lizard's power is also the strongest. We'd better avoid it before and after the full moon, and stay in the ten

Night operations are better in July and August."

In Hongmeng Fangxian's Hongmeng Manual, Ye Lingyue had heard of Moonlight Grass, but had never seen it with her own eyes.

It must be noted that the Moonlight Grass will attract the Moon Demon Lizard, which is also what Hongmeng Fangxian mentioned in the handbook.

Even Hongmeng Fangxian was so cautious, Ye Lingyue thought it was best for them to do what Hongmeng Fangxian said.

Ye Lingyue originally said this out of good intentions, but those magic soldiers were not happy when they heard it.

"General, we always collect moonlight grass before and after the full moon, and we have never encountered any moon devil lizards. Besides, we only have a few days to go out. In addition to moonlight grass, there are other medicinal herbs to search for.

If you are unable to complete the task by then, as a general, you will be fine. It is us little minions who will suffer. If the general is afraid of something happening, you can just wait nearby."

With that said, those magic soldiers set up camp angrily.

Ye Lingyue listened and shook her head helplessly.

She also had good intentions. Since the magic soldiers didn't listen, she could only wait and see what happened.

By night, the camp had been set up.

After sunset, the hazy moonlight illuminated most of the valley.

The river in the valley flows gurglingly.

When the moon was high in the sky, there was a rustling sound on the dry river beach, like a lingering spring rain.

Under the smooth cobblestones, pieces of fluffy leaves emerged. Those leaves were very inconspicuous at first, but as time went by, there were more and more leaves.

Those leaves are no bigger than a fingernail. After absorbing the essence of the moonlight, their young leaves continue to grow in size until they reach the length of a willow leaf. At this time, it means that the grass has matured.

That is moongrass.

It takes three hours for moonlight grass to mature from breaking the ground, and it must be collected before dawn and before the moon completely disappears.

Otherwise, the old moongrass will burrow into the ground again and will only appear again the next day.

There are quite a lot of moongrass growing in this river valley. If you look closely, there are at least thousands of them.

Seeing the grand scene of moonlight grass, the members of the collection team cheered.

After waiting for three hours, they quickly entered the river valley, stepped on the pebbles, and collected moonlight grass.

The collection of moongrass is very time-consuming.

Because moongrass is very delicate, if you accidentally damage its stems and leaves, it will affect the efficacy of the medicine, or even cause the entire moongrass to lose its effectiveness.

Therefore, there must be no damage during the collection process.

It takes about half an hour to successfully collect a ten-year-old moongrass.

These magic soldiers were concentrating on collecting moonlight grass and did not pay attention to the situation around them.

Ye Lingyue's warnings to them earlier were all forgotten by them. Fortunately, it was very peaceful tonight, without any disturbance, and no divine beasts were seen around.

This also made the magic soldiers even more cautious, and they realized that what Ye Lingyue said earlier was completely nonsense. How could there be a Moon Demon Lizard in this area?

About half an hour later, the sky turned white and it was about to dawn.

When the first ray of morning light penetrated the clouds and shone on the river valley.

Half of the river valley is dark and half is bright. After encountering the sunlight, the moonlight grass quickly burrows back into the ground.

The thirteen magic soldiers only had time to pick more than a hundred moonlight grasses.

This speed made the magic soldiers very dissatisfied.

"It's a pity that Deputy General Wang is not here, otherwise he will definitely allocate more manpower to us. The best collection time is only three or four days. It seems that we may not be able to collect enough moongrass this month. It will be necessary by then.

I will be blamed by the medical camp again."

The magic soldiers complained and glanced at Ye Lingyue.

It was obvious that the manpower was insufficient, but Ye Lingyue was still nearby and did not take action, which was simply a drag on people.

The magic soldiers rest during the day and wait until night to continue the collection task.

On the night of the 15th, the moon appears very early.

The moon is like a jade plate. When the moon is in the sky, the moonlight is like soft gauze, hazy and soft.

More moonlight grass appeared than last night. Seeing this scene, the magic soldiers cheered.

In order to collect as much moon grass as possible, they couldn't wait for the moon grass to fully mature, so they rushed forward and started collecting moon grass.

Ye Lingyue raised her head and glanced at the sky. There were a few sad clouds in the sky, covering the full moon, and the whole earth was a little darker.

The wormwood on the edge of the river valley made a rustling sound, as if the wind was blowing.

But Ye Lingyue noticed that there was no wind blowing around.

Her eyes suddenly became sharp and she looked at both sides of the river bank.

I didn't see any suspicious noises, and the rustling of wormwood came intermittently.

A strange feeling made Ye Lingyue alert.

"Everyone, leave the valley."

Almost subconsciously, Ye Lingyue shouted.

But all those magic soldiers ignored her.

In their minds, Ye Lingyue has no prestige at all.

laugh--

A trace of blood splashed on the moonlight grass.

A divine soldier let out a scream, and that sound broke the silence of the moonlit night.

The magic soldiers finally woke up from a dream, and they looked back.

I saw that the leader of a divine soldier was separated, his head was missing, and there was only a headless corpse on the ground that was bleeding constantly.

"Enemy attack, there is an enemy attack."

The twelve divine soldiers shuddered, dropped the moonlight grass in their hands, and all of them acted defensively, with panic filling their eyes.

Only then did they realize that Ye Lingyue's warning was not false.
