Chapter 1446 Taste my craf

Two days later, they went around the foot of the mountain and climbed up the Thousand Medicines Mountain. Feng Jiu followed at her mother’s side, watching her skillfully explore the path in the forest, checking whether any ferocious beasts were around and paying attention whether guardian spirit beasts would appear when they were gathering herbs.

For two days, they did not encounter any major events or dangers. They walked to the edge, close to the precipice, where the first herb seemed to grow.

She looked at her mother who was squatting down to pick a spirit herb and asked, “Martial Uncle Shangguan, Martial Uncle Duan and others said you must gather three kinds of spirit herbs. What kind of spirit herbs are those?”

She was curious, which three spirit herbs must be gathered? What’s more, it seemed that if all the three herbs were taken and handed to Master Third Sun, there’s a good possibility that her mother would die. Why?

“They are premium spirit herbs. You aren’t familiar with it.” Shangguan Wanrong looked back at her. “Are you tired? Do you want to take a break?”

When she heard this, Feng Jiu replied hurriedly, “I’m hungry.”

Shangguan Wanrong took out a fasting pill and gave it to Feng Jiu, “You’ve run out of food, right? Take this!”

Unexpectedly, Feng Jiu shook her head and waved a hand, “I don’t like taking medicine to fill my stomach. I prefer eating meat.” At this point, she grinned from ear to ear.

Shangguan Wanrong was startled, then a faint smile appeared on her face. “If you want to eat meat, you have to look for it on this mountain. See if there is any meat to eat.”

“Shall we take a break?” Feng Jiu asked, looking at her expectantly.

“Rest! There’s plenty of time, so no need to rush.” Shangguan Wanrong looked around and pointed to a place not far away. “Over there! There is a big flat stone over there with no grass around it. We can take a rest there.”

“Alright.” Feng Jiu replied. Then, she spoke again, “Martial Uncle Shangguan, sit there for a while. I’ll be back after a bit.” With that, she ran off.

“Hey, you…” Before Shangguan Wanrong finished speaking, Feng Jiu had already ran off quickly, so she could only sit on the big rock and wait for her there.

After about the time it took for an incense to burn, Shangguan Wanrong, who was drinking water, saw the young man in azure come back with two wild pheasants in one hand and a bundle of dry branches in the other. Stunned, she got up and went towards Feng Jiu.

“Martial Uncle Shangguan, please sit down. Leave these to me.” Feng Jiu grinned, signalling her not to come over.

When Shangguan Wanrong reached her side and took the bundle of branches from Feng Jiu’s hand, she was surprised. “I didn’t see any pheasants during the whole journey. How did you manage to catch them?” This type of pheasant was the fastest creature. They couldn’t be caught without a certain speed, especially in such mountain forests.

“What’s so special about catching two pheasants? I often run around outside alone and am used to these things. I’m experienced at this.” She smiled with her eyes in the shape of crescents. She had Shangguan Wanrong sit by and started handling the food herself.

Before long, the branches were lit and then roasted the already cleaned wild pheasants on the fire. “Martial Uncle, just wait for a taste of my craft! Those fasting pills don’t have such fragrant meat aroma!”

Shangguan Wanrong chuckled and took a branch with pheasant from Feng Jiu’s hand. “Let me help.” Looking at the pheasants roasting in the fire and at the young man’s skilled technique, she couldn’t help but ask, “You’re so young. Why do you do these things often?”

“It’s because I run around a lot!”
