3096 Each Takes What He Needs
“Since we’re also going to delve into this area on this journey, let’s go there too!” Mu Ling looked around at the other team members and asked, “What do you think?”
After exchanging glances, everyone nodded and said, “Alright, we agree,”
“Today’s captain is Pei Zixuan. You will make all of the necessary arrangements today.” Mu Ling said as he looked at Pei Zixuan.
Pei Zixuan glanced at Shao Kaizhi and asked, “Can you walk?”
!!
“I can.” Shao Kaizhi replied and stood up, “I’m fine, it’s just a minor pain.”
“Let’s go then! Don’t stay here too long.” So, the group left this place and went on their journey.
The injured were positioned in the middle, while the others guarded the front and back. They encountered no danger on their journey through this region. Once they had left the territory of the Iron-Skin Red Dragon, they began to encounter ferocious beasts.
Throughout the journey, Pei Zixuan led the group to kill ferocious beasts and collect their beast crystals as well as useful parts of the beasts; however, they did not encounter anyone from the immortal sect in this area.
They were going deeper into the forest and killing ferocious beasts as they went. Their clothing had been splattered with blood and was no longer clean and white.
Feng Jiu, on the other hand, didn’t do as much as on the previous trip, and instead just collected some spirit herbs that weren’t particularly valuable but were commonly used.
When Pei Zixuan looked around after working together with the others to kill a ferocious beast that had attacked them, he saw Mu Jiu squatting nearby, gathering spirit herbs. He just had to walk over and ask, “Mu Jiu, all of these are common spirit herbs. Why are you picking these?”
Feng Jiu glanced at him and answered with a smile. “Although these are common, they are widely used. Look, this medicinal herb is the medicine to stop bleeding, and it is also very effective for the healing of sword wounds. I gathered them and will refine some of them into a panacea when I have time.”
After she finished explaining, she chuckled and told Pei Zixuan. “What’s more, the medicine’s effect is incomparable to others.”
“Are you not interested in ferocious beasts?” He noticed that she only collected herbs along the way and rarely did anything else. They wanted to share some of their prey with her, but she refused.
“Each takes what he needs. Moreover, I did nothing.” She chuckled and tossed the spirit herbs into her s.p.a.ce.
“I found a fruit tree ahead. We came back because we had picked a lot of fruit.” Zheng Hai said as he pa.s.sed around the harvested fruit to everyone. “I just ate it, and it tastes good.”
The crowd smiled as they took the fruit, wiped it on their clothes, and started to eat. Feng Jiu also took two to eat. After seeing that the people in the front were sitting down and taking a rest, she went there to join them.
“I also found a hot spring there. It’s quite big. Let’s go soak there later!” Zheng Hai said as he bit into a piece of fruit.
“A hot spring? We’ll take a bath first and change into fresh clothes. I got some of the beast’s blood all over my body and it smells terrible.” Lin Yus.h.i.+ frowned as she looked down and tugged at her blood-stained clothing.
“Then go with Guan Yue, and I’ll watch out for you.” Lin Chengjin looked at them both.
“Thank you, Big Brother.” Lin Yus.h.i.+ thanked him cheerfully.
After a short rest, the two women set out with Lin Chengjin in the direction Zheng Hai had pointed. Lin Chengjin initially planned to set up a Nine Palaces Maze around the two women, but he eventually abandoned this plan and resigned himself to simply guarding them while facing the opposite direction.
