Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 1409 - 1248: The Ancient Beast World 14

After dividing the people in the tribe into groups of fifty, Shuangshuang slowed down her explanation. And to ensure that these beastmen could understand, Shuangshuang explained in great detail, making the process even more time-consuming.It was not until nightfall that Shuangshuang finished explaining to six groups totaling three hundred people how to identify these herbs.

These beastmen were quite attentive. After the lecture, they gathered nearby, listening from afar. Two clever ones even found a higher vantage point so they could both listen and see the herbs clearly.

Later, other beastmen followed suit, crowding together, but learning from past lessons, none dared to force their way in.

Seeing that it was getting dark, and her throat a bit hoarse from talking too long, Shuangshuang took a sip of water and moistened her throat, saying, "Let’s stop here for today. Everyone, go back, eat something, and rest.

You all listened to my lecture without having time to eat. Come back tomorrow morning to continue listening. Remember what I explained today, because tomorrow morning I will ask you to identify herbs.

Only those who can fully recognize all herbs will be eligible to collect them during hunting and gathering.

The more complete your harvested herbs, the less the loss, and the greater the quantity, the more hemostatic potion you will receive during distribution."

Shuangshuang’s words greatly motivated the beastmen; the amount they collect is associated with the distribution of hemostatic powder, prompting a faster heartbeat among all beastmen.

Even without this incentive, beastmen would still conscientiously execute the tasks assigned by the Great Witch, but with the added hemostatic potion incentive, their enthusiasm was further heightened.

Several absent-minded beastmen repeatedly reminded themselves to be meticulous if fortunate enough to be part of the herb gathering team tomorrow.

They must not be careless and damage the herbs they find, fearing not the wasted effort but the heartbreak of receiving no hemostatic potion.

"Great Witch, rest assured, we will diligently remember your herbal identification methods, and will not be careless tomorrow."

"Indeed, Great Witch, rest assured, we will not be careless or damage the collected herbs."

The beastmen expressed their excitement to Shuangshuang, each with eager expressions, valuing the opportunity to qualify for herb gathering.

Teaching the beastmen to identify herbs took Shuangshuang a full five days, finally selecting thirty-three qualified beastmen for herb gathering.

Among them were eighteen females and fifteen males. Shuangshuang’s mother Saran and Grandma Tu Ya were impressively among them, much to Shuangshuang’s surprise.

Early in the morning, Shuangshuang carried a herb basket, took a stone-made herbal hoe, prepared jerky for when hungry, and the group set out from the tribe.

Since it was herb gathering, Shuangshuang didn’t plan for them to walk too far, just taking a path less frequently traveled, but still close to the tribe, ensuring safety.

Along the way, Shuangshuang explained some encountered herbs, not demanding full memorization but hoping for an impression. The selected thirty-three beastmen were the smartest in the tribe.

The thirty-three beastmen listened attentively to Shuangshuang’s explanation, and soon Shuangshuang found the first type of herb she was looking for.

Shuangshuang wasn’t in a rush to gather, instead letting everyone gather in a circle for an onsite assessment: "Yesterday, I explained in detail the herbs we will gather today.

Though you performed well, harvested herbs differ from those in their natural environment. You must apply the knowledge I taught flexibly.

Now, let’s have a test. Who recognizes this herb? What is its growing environment? How should it be harvested? What is its medicinal effect?"

Suddenly questioned by Shuangshuang, the beastmen exchanged glances, yet none dared step forward—not due to forgetfulness, but nervousness facing Shuangshuang, the Great Witch.

It felt like under-performing students being randomly quizzed by a teacher, uncertain if they knew the answer, feeling insecure, especially since Shuangshuang’s presence seemed more intimidating than a teacher’s.

During earlier explanations, Shuangshuang consistently asked if they remembered, making them repeat her explanations one by one.

Some beastmen, when asked, were so nervous their minds went blank, forgetting everything they knew, stuttering unable to respond.

Shuangshuang, however, didn’t lose her temper, just coldly staring, exerting silent pressure more intimidating than verbal reprimand.

The outcome was that, after Shuangshuang taught all beastmen, she left them with significant psychological pressure.

Having overwhelming authority, these beastmen instinctively felt nervous and panicked upon seeing her.

Being questioned now, reminded of Shuangshuang’s previous daunting presence, they all became anxious, none daring to step forward.

After asking and waiting for quite some time without a response, Shuangshuang, her irritation rising, was eventually approached by her Grandma Tu Ya.

Tu Ya and Saran, Shuangshuang’s grandmother and mother respectively, naturally didn’t fear Shuangshuang.

Previously silent to allow others the learning opportunity, they met Shuangshuang daily, with plenty of chances for personalized tutoring.

Yet seeing beastmen too timid to speak, watching Shuangshuang’s frown deepen, Tu Ya stepped forward to set an example.

"This herb is called Fengji Grass, a parasitic plant growing on Piling Tree trunks, named for its leaf’s resemblance to maple leaves.

The entire Fengji Grass plant is medicinal; the leaves clear heat and detoxify, the root stops bleeding, and its flowers treat dizziness and headaches.

During harvest, carefully loosen soil around Fengji Grass’s parasitic spot, cut through bark, gently shake until roots loosen, then pull up the whole plant."

Tu Ya spoke in one breath, and Shuangshuang’s face finally showed some pleasant expression, smiling approvingly: "Grandma explained very well."

What surprised Shuangshuang most is Grandma Tu Ya and Mother Saran’s sensitivity to herbs. Initially, she explained once, and Tu Ya and Saran memorized everything verbatim.

Now they can even flexibly apply it. Shuangshuang plans to train Saran and Tu Ya to be top pharmacists, then have them teach those in the tribe with a talent for pharmaceutical learning.
