As she listened to Chen Dao speaking, Feng Jiu’s mouth twitched. She put away the net and was walking over when an alchemist stood in front of her, blocking her way: “I give you pills in exchange for the two Specter Grass plants.”
Feng Jiu looked back at the person in front of her, her eyes squinted as she smiled and replied: “Not exchanging.”
She was planning on planting those two Specter Grass plants in space! The Specter Grass was an essential ingredient for many pills, and it also has many uses when added to different prescriptions, there was no way she was going to give up the plants.
“I can…..”
Before the alchemist was able to finish his sentence, he was pushed aside by Chen Dao who had walked forwards. He staggered a few steps backwards before he steadied his footsteps. When he saw that it was Chen Dao, he couldn’t help but shouted angrily: “Chen Dao, what are you doing?”
Chen Dao wrapped his arms across his chest and narrowed his eyes as he looked at him: “I was just about to ask you the same thing! Have you no shame? You want him to exchange the spirit plant that he picked himself with you? If you keep pestering him like this, do you believe that I will kick you into the mud pit?”
Rendered speechless by those words, that man could only glance bitterly at Feng Jiu before he pursed his lips and turned around and returned to sit under the tree. However, being arrogant, he was unable to stomach this humiliation.
Chen Dao glanced at that man and snorted, then said to Feng Jiu: “Make sure you keep your own things safe. If they dare to give you any trouble, come to me. You are under my protection, if they dare to cause trouble for you, they are causing trouble for me.”
When Feng Jiu heard this, she grinned: “Thank you Senior Brother Chen.”
“Okay, let’s rest now. We will continue walking at dawn.” He waved his hand and found a place to sit down and rest.
At this time, Feng Jiu leapt up into a tree to sleep. As she leaned against the tree and looked down at the people below her, the corners of her lips curled upwards. She was about to close her eyes when she saw that Luo Heng had also leapt up onto a tree nearby.
“Hey, Feng Jiu. Why do you have a dip net with you? Why didn’t you take it out?”
Feng Jiu glanced at him and smiled: “I used it for fishing in the past, and sometimes I would use it to catch beasts too. It just so happens that it is perfect for catching Specter Grass this time.”
“How about selling it to me? I don’t want your Specter Grass, just your dip net, and I will trade you some pills for it.”
“No, I still need it” She closed her eyes and ignored him.
“Hey…..”
“I’m going to sleep Senior Brother Luo. I won’t sell it to you, however I might lend it to you. But let’s talk about it tomorrow after I wake up.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Heng smiled: “Okay then!” It was good enough to borrow it! With the dip net, he would be able to catch the Specter Grass!
Early the next morning, everyone awoke to the sounds of the birds and insects and saw the rays of sunlight shining through the forest. The morning air was extremely fresh and there was a very peaceful feeling to it. Everyone’s mood was instantly clear.
There were inexhaustible resources here, they might have missed out on Specter Grass, but there were many others. They shouldn’t keep thinking about those two Specter Grass plants as it would make them seem too petty if they did.
