"Sister Cheng Qiao said that she asked me to send her to the Qilian Mountains. This is the compensation she gave us for our base. She also said that you can only make money and not lose money."
"What? Cheng Qiao went to Qilian Mountain? How dare you, boy..."
Qin Daqiang's surprise turned into anger. In recent years, many hunters died in the deep mountains of Qilian Mountains because they had no food at home, so now basically no one dared to go up the mountain.
"That's what I said, but Sister Cheng Qiao must go, otherwise she won't give me the medicine. Oh, my father also went there to serve as Sister Cheng Qiao's guide."
"You... you... no wonder people call you a little troublemaker, you are indeed a troublemaker. Come on, put him in solitary confinement. When Cheng Qiao comes back, let him out."
The little troublemaker opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe what he heard, but he also knew that he had violated the rules and deserved to be punished.
"Captain, we are leaving in the middle of the night. Do we really have to put him in solitary confinement?"
"Don't lock it. He'll come out when he's hungry."
Li Bing nodded, took out the herbs from the backpack and hid them in the car.
… …
Cheng Qiao followed the little troublemaker's father on the way up the mountain. The mountain road was extremely steep, and because of the high altitude, the guide walked very slowly.
"Uncle, we can just go up this mountain road, right?"
"Yes, the mountain road over there is easier to walk on, but there are people guarding it and we are not allowed to go up the mountain, so we can only go from here."
The two of them climbed up slowly. The little troublemaker's father was already out of breath. He found a rock to sit on, then took out some water and drank it slowly:
"Miss Cheng Qiao, I can only go up another thirty to fifty meters at most. I can't go any higher. Why don't you look around here to see if there are any herbs you need?"
Cheng Qiao glanced at the lush forest, concentrated her mind, and felt the call, which seemed to be still there, so she had to go up.
"Then uncle, you go down the mountain first, I'll go up and take a look."
"What? You still want to go up? Doesn't your head hurt?"
Cheng Qiao shook her head. She had already drunk the space water, so high opposition was almost non-existent for her. Of course, she had also considered whether to give the little troublemaker's father space water, but after thinking about it, she decided not to.
"Uncle, take this cornmeal. If you have any problems at home, you can go back first. I know the way back." Cheng Qiao smiled and took out ten kilograms of cornmeal from the backpack. This was the agreed reward.
"Girl, I haven't even finished the journey with you, how can you ask for cornmeal?"
"You've already brought me here."
The little troublemaker's father took the cornmeal embarrassedly. Little troublemaker was the only one in the family who received an allowance, and his mother and wife were in poor health, so he needed these fine grains.
"Then I'm going down the mountain first. I'll wait for you for two days. I'll tell my son when I get back. If he's free, I'll ask him to pick you up as well."
Cheng Qiao nodded, waved her hand, and continued to climb up. She didn't know how long she had been climbing, but when she saw that there was no one around, she let the little red head out.
The little red-head felt a cold wind coming towards him and could not help but wrap himself up. Looking at the obviously unhappy little red-head, Cheng Qiao raised the corner of his mouth.
"This is the Qilian Mountains, which are much taller than the mountains in our hometown. Don't you want to take a look?"
The little red head stuck out his tongue and began to identify the smell in the air, then quickly meandered up the mountain, much faster than Cheng Qiao.
Seeing how impatient Little Redhead was, Cheng Qiao quickly drank a sip of the water in the space, took a breath, and quickly followed. She knew that Little Redhead must have found something good.
Slowly, the road ahead became easier to walk on, and in the end there was a large flat land.
There wasn't even a tree, and the voice that called her stopped abruptly.
"Qilin Resurrection Grass, no, it should be Qilin Resurrection Tree."
Cheng Qiao looked at the plant in front of him, which was about 1.5 meters tall and had a head like a unicorn, standing proudly in the middle of the flat ground, and shouted in surprise.
No wonder there is not a single tree or even grass around. This shows how powerful the Qilin Resurrection Grass is. However, if it were not so powerful, it would not become the main ingredient of the Resurrection Pill.
Cheng Qiao did not rush up, but walked around the Qilin Resurrection Grass. She did not believe that there would be no living creatures protecting this extremely precious herb.
Little Redhead could no longer bear the attraction of the Qilin Resurrection Grass and suddenly rushed over. He did not expect that the Qilin Resurrection Grass, which remained motionless, would actually fight back.
The green plant that looked like a unicorn head actually opened its huge mouth towards the little red dot, and its body moved with the movement of the little red head.
"Oh my god, no wonder there's nothing to protect nearby, this is a plant that has become a spirit."
Cheng Qiao muttered to himself as he took out the well water from the space and drank it slowly. Sure enough, the Qilin Resurrection Grass suddenly stopped, and the Qilin face looked at the kettle in his hand.
"Want to drink? Just follow me and drink what I have every day."
The Qilin Resurrection Grass did not move. Cheng Qiao directly took out a new basin from the space and filled it with well water. However, she did not know whether to pour all the well water on the roots of the Resurrection Grass or let the Qilin head drink it.
The Qilin head of the Resurrection Grass slowly stretched out towards Cheng Qiao. Cheng Qiao understood, put the basin on the ground and pushed it towards the Qilin head.
The Qilin head seemed to be in the early stages of enlightenment. It immersed its head in the basin without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, there was no drop of water in the basin.
"There is still a lot of well water in my magic weapon. Are you willing to come with me?"
The Qilin Resurrection Grass glanced at the little red head, and Cheng Qiao moved her hand slightly, and the little red head disappeared, and then the Saker Falcon was pulled out by her.
Seeing the snow-white Saker Falcon suddenly appear, flapping its wings and flying happily over the Qilian Mountains, Cheng Qiao began to work on the Qilin Resurrection Herb. She waited quietly. This herb was too precious, and she did not dare to be careless at all.
Just as the Qilin Resurrection Grass was still thinking, a tiger roar sounded in the distance. It turned out that the Saker Falcon made a sharp eagle cry while flying freely, which alarmed the king of the mountains.
The Qilin Resurrection Grass was frightened, and its huge Qilin head leaned against Cheng Qiao's arm. Cheng Qiao immediately sensed the fear of the Qilin Resurrection Grass, and hurriedly took out a shovel from the space and quickly started to shovel around the Resurrection Grass.
Cheng Qiao started shoveling the soil about two meters away from the roots of the resurrection grass. Although the soil was hard, Cheng Qiao had become extremely strong after drinking the well water, and he had dug a circle of soil in a blink of an eye.
However, the root system of the Qilin Resurrection Grass was too deep. Cheng Qiao had already dug to a depth of two meters, but seeing that the roots were still moving downwards, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue digging.
Suddenly, the entire trunk of the Kylin Resurrection Grass began to tremble. Cheng Qiao looked up and saw a large, spotted tiger circling around the Kylin Resurrection Grass, its eyes fixed on it.
It was just because Cheng Qiao dug a deep pit around the resurrection grass that the tiger didn't dare to jump over it directly. But when it saw the vitality bursting out from the Qilin Resurrection Grass, it suddenly arched its body and was about to pounce on it.
