What you eat into your stomach belongs to you. Although he doesn't know what the golden fruit on his hand is, Gu Qiancheng knows based on the doctor's intuition that this thing is harmless to people and may even be beneficial.
Didn’t you see that little ferret is so greedy that he is drooling?
Gu Qiancheng took a bite. The pulp was sweet, crisp but not hard, and full of fragrance. He couldn't help but praise: "It tastes very good."
At this time, the little ferret had finished eating, and it was touching its belly with its little paws, looking satisfied. Qin Jiyan casually handed the fruit in his hand to the little ferret. The little ferret's eyes lit up but he did not accept it.
Qin Jiyan didn't force himself and ate it himself.
Although the fruit is as big as a baby's fist and has no core, it can only take two bites for a normal person. Qin Jiyan comes from a royal family and has never eaten anything precious. Although the fruit on his hand tastes good, he is not too surprised.
After two people and one ferret divided the fruit, the little ferret was ready to take them away.
Its owner and father are both dead, and this is no longer its home.
"Wait a minute." If you eat someone else's food, you have to do something for them. The old man next to the medicine field is obviously the owner of the ferret. Out of respect for the deceased, Gu Qiancheng plans to let him be buried in peace. "Even if
It’s our reward for eating other people’s food.”
Although I don’t know what effect the fruit has, but it was specially packed in a jade box, so it must not be an ordinary product.
"Yeah." Qin Jiyan didn't have any objections. He dug a hole where the jade box was buried, buried the old man on the spot, and chipped a piece of wood to make a tablet.
Although the little ferret didn't know what these two people were going to do, seeing their serious faces, the little ferret obediently said nothing and curled up in the corner, not knowing what they were thinking.
After burying the old man, Gu Qiancheng took a look at the well-cared-for medicinal fields and felt quite reluctant to leave them. "It's a waste to leave these herbs here. Why don't we pick some and go?"
"Okay." Qin Jiyan has no objection. The jade box that just contained the fruits is still there. It can contain some high-quality medicinal materials. As for the others?
Just wrap it with cloth.
Seeing Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng collecting herbs, the little ferret happily stepped forward to help. Which medicines needed leaves and which medicines needed stems. The little ferret didn't need Gu Qiancheng to teach them. They knew how to do it themselves.
Gu Qiancheng admired the dead old man more and more. He taught the little ferret so well that it was almost enviable.
The medicine field was not big, and the packages Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan brought were also limited. They were filled quickly. Gu Qiancheng was not greedy, so he followed the little ferret out and walked out of the stone gate. The stone gate was restored to its original state, and it could not be seen.
Traces of someone's presence.
After retracing their steps, they came to the place where the snake and ferret died. The little ferret stopped in place, bit Qin Jiyan's trouser leg, and barked a few words towards the big ferret's body.
Obviously, the little thing had seen Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng burying the old man's body before, and hoped that the two of them could help bury the big Diao.
"Little clever ghost." Gu Qiancheng knew that the little ferret didn't understand the meaning of burying. It just watched and learned, but he still couldn't help but praise the little ferret for its intelligence.
Gu Qiancheng showed his connivance, and Qin Jiyan didn't care whether he wanted to or not. He took the ferret back to the medicine field and buried it next to the old man.
It was half an hour after they finished all this. After so much time wasted, Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan planned to speed up, otherwise they would not be able to leave the snow mountain today, but...
As soon as they approached the stone gate, they heard the sound of footsteps and the sound of someone talking through the stone gate.
"Master, someone found it before us." The voice was rough, with a hint of ferocity.
"The python was bitten to death by an animal. No matter what, let's take a look first." Zino's voice was clear and gentle, making it easy to identify.
Hearing Zino's voice, Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan looked shocked and looked at each other in unison: Why is Zino here?
"Master, there is a door here, but the gap is so small that it cannot be pried open and there is no mechanism." It was still the voice of a big man, and Zino's reply was: "Keep looking." There was a hint of urgency, obviously.
Zino understood that someone had taken the lead.
"It seems that they are here for those few fruits." Qin Jiyan's mind was racing and he figured it out in an instant.
"Who is Zino? How could he find this place?" If it weren't for the little ferret leading the way, Gu Qiancheng said that she would never find this place in her life. It was too secretive.
"No matter who they are, we shouldn't face each other head-on." At this time, the two sides will quarrel with each other. Although Qin Jiyan is not afraid, some things are better solved off the table.
Gu Qiancheng nodded in agreement, picked up the little ferret with its fangs exposed, and asked, "Little one, is there any other way out of here?"
The little ferret nodded hurriedly and jumped down from Gu Qiancheng's body. The movement was so light that no sound was made, which amazed Gu Qiancheng.
So monstrous!
The little ferret led Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan around and around and walked into a long ice cave. Along the ice cave, the two of them and the ferret walked out of the world of colorful flowers and green willows, and came to the ice and snow again, but...
"How did we get out?" Gu Qiancheng was confused for a moment while holding the ferret.
Qin Jiyan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't know, the road inside is too complicated. The owner who built this place was a genius." There were secret passages, one after another. If it weren't for the ferret leading the way, they wouldn't have been able to get out at all. Inside
It will make you faint.
"Forget it, we don't plan to go back anyway, let's go." Turning back and looking at the snow behind him, Gu Qiancheng couldn't help but shake his head.
If she hadn't still had the little ferret in her hand, she would have thought she was dreaming.
The little ferret was probably tired, so it stopped making any noise after it came out, twisted its body to find a comfortable position, and fell asleep in Gu Qiancheng's arms.
There was no need for the little ferret to lead the way. Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, so they hid the little ferret in their arms and quickly took the little ferret down the mountain, preparing for the next step of their plan, and leaving Zhilingchuan as soon as possible.
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng didn't know that not long after they left, Zino's men used brute force to smash a hole in the stone door. With the map in his hand and his understanding of the battle format, Zino quickly found the
Medicine field., just...
"Damn it, someone took a step ahead of me." Zino angrily slammed the map in his hand on the ground. The servants behind him did not dare to say a word and were busy looking around, but after searching for a long time, they could not find what Zino wanted.
"Master, the golden fruit is missing. The medicine servant who took care of the golden fruit is dead. The pit is new. The person who took the golden fruit should still be here." Although the big man has a big head, he is very careful and meticulous.
.
"Looking for it." Zino frowned and said angrily: "Aside from our Yaowang Valley, who else knows the whereabouts of the Golden Fruit?"
They have been looking for these things in Yaowang Valley for a hundred years, and finally they have some clues, but they were robbed first...
