Shao Xuan followed the old man along to circle around the mountain. If they saw the plants they needed, the old man would go and get it.
A low brown grass was cut by the old man. From a growing spiral tree, a skin was peeled. There were even some Shao Xuan had not seen before. The old man also picked some flowers.
“You’re going to…” Shao Xuan asked, seeing the old man’s actions.
“Use it to put down that batch of wild rats!” The old man’s tone was like it was obvious. For those he suspected were the thousand gold grains, he was determined to win and never let those wild rats eat those ears.
“Poison them?” Shao Xuan asked. Those wild rats were many, so if he wanted to poison them, even if he concocted an herbal medicine, the amount should be very large too. Unless he was actually going to concoct a specific drug.
However, the old man did not want to directly poison the wild rats.
“It is useful for them to stay in this barren mountain. If we need more thousand gold grains in the future, we may have to rely on them to find it so they cannot all be poisoned. I am just trying to stun them now.” The old man’s hands were full soon after. Although he actually wanted to pick less as there was not much grass growing in every part of the mountain, but the old man had to in order to concoct something in time. He moved fast, going to places he had in his memory for some of the plants he needed. In a moment, his hands were full.
“I’ll take it, you go on.” Shao Xuan turned his attention to the grass on the old man’s hands.
