623 Budding Icy Heart Worm
He had never told An Jiuyue that, although Qian Yiyun had always addressed him as “Big Brother,” she was not related to him by blood.
“Heh, keep amusing me.”
An Jiuyue shook her head with a smile and looked down at the Insidious Rain Flower that was about to be dug out.
“Be careful. Don’t touch it. The crystalline substance on it is very poisonous. One drop can poison a gigantic demonic beast.”
Qian Jiyun did not respond. He slowly dug out the entire stalk of Insidious Rain Flower from the ground and watched her store it in her space.
Once inside the space, Wei Na took over. He was not afraid of anything. Poison was useless to him. Everything was illusory.
After dealing with the most poisonous herb, they began digging up the Ten Thousand Poison Ginseng.
The Ten Thousand Poison Ginseng’s poison was milder. It was not as poisonous as the Insidious Rain Flowers, but they should avoid touching it too.
An Jiuyue gave Qian Jiyun a new handkerchief before burning the one they used to wrap the Insidious Rain Flower. They must not leave any traces of its poison.
Yan Jin, carrying a bamboo basket on his back, saw the black smoke and flames. He could not help but ask, “Mistress, what are you burning?”
He had never seen such a fire. It was black! If not for the black smoke, he would not have guessed what was going on. What was she burning?
“A handkerchief that was stained with poison. You dug up so many medicinal herbs?” An Jiuyue looked up at Yan Jin and the bamboo basket on his back. It was nearly half full.
“Mhm.” Yan Jin nodded and turned to look somewhere.
“There are many medicinal herbs there, but they’re all ordinary ones. I dug them up according to your instructions. Their roots are well preserved. Yan Nuo is still digging.”
“Let me see what you have,” An Jiuyue said as Yan Jin removed the bamboo basket from his back and handed it to her.
“Take a look, Mistress. I’ll help Master.”
“Alright, be careful,” An Jiuyue reminded him.
She looked into the bamboo basket. Yan Jin had picked a lot of medicinal herbs, and their roots were well preserved.
“It’ll be easy for you to plant them,” she said to Wei Na in her mind.
“Even if they’re not well-preserved, it’ll be easy for me to plant them,” Wei Na said leisurely.
It was true. The spiritual energy in the space was sufficient, to begin with.
If a leaf was about to rot off, the rotten part of it could be trimmed off before planting it in the soil inside the space. It could grow again, not to mention these medicinal herbs. They all looked pretty good.
“Keep bragging. You’re really taking credit for this?” An Jiuyue replied unhappily. She raised her hand and was about to put the herbs in her space.
Suddenly, she noticed a white worm on a medicinal herb and stopped what she was doing.
“Is that a Budding Icy Heart Worm?”
She picked up the herb and placed it in front of her to look closer.
“It is! There’s actually a Budding Icy Heart Worm here!”
“What’s a Budding Icy Heart Worm?” Wei Na asked in confusion.
He had read the prescription for the Nine Suns Pill but had never seen the Budding Icy Heart Worm in it. Why was his master so excited to see this worm?
