Chapter 128 Cartilage Grass Growing on the Cliff



Chapter 128 Cartilage Grass Growing on the Cliff

After walking for about another half an hour, Yazhi finally led them out of the dense bushes.

During this period, Shu He also discovered many valuable herbs, of course, there were also countless traps and dangers.

This Shanwai Valley was truly a treasure trove. This reaffirmed her determination to connect Shanwai Valley with the outside world.

After coming out, without the bushes blocking their view, they saw a scenery completely different from that of the Beast Taming Mountain.

Yushou Mountain is densely wooded, verdant and beautiful; whereas the endless peaks of West Mountain are sparsely populated with greenery, dominated by jagged rocks and steep cliffs. Their bizarre shapes, majestic grandeur, and wide-open views offer a refreshing perspective.

"Go up this road, on the cliffs of the western peak's ridge, you'll find the cartilage grass you mentioned." Yazhi pointed to the extremely dangerous spot, a hint of fear on her face. "It's extremely steep there, there's no place to stand. Below is a thousand-foot cliff, and the bottom of the cliff is covered with sharp rocks."

"I once saw with my own eyes a member of the Xishan tribe fall off a cliff while trying to pick cartilage grass, and was smashed to pieces by the strange rocks at the bottom of the cliff."

There was a light in Shu He's eyes. "Yazhi, just wait for us here. We can walk the rest of the way by ourselves."

The road at the foot of the mountain was easier to walk on. Both Shu He and Baili Moqing were walking at a fairly fast pace, and they had already reached the mountainside of the West Mountain Peak in just half an hour.

Further up, there was an extremely smooth cliff. Although Shu He had climbed many mountains in her past life, cliffs like this required the use of professional equipment. She had never done freehand rock climbing before.

After all, she values her life very much and doesn't want to expose it to any possible danger.

"Can you climb up such a high cliff?" Shu He asked him.

She had witnessed Beiji and Nanqi's Qinggong skills, where they were as light as a swallow, leaping over eaves and walls with ease. This kind of Qinggong required deep internal energy, which she didn't have much of at the moment. But Baili Moqing was different. Shu He couldn't fathom the depths of his internal energy.

In short, there are many people who are more powerful than Su Lanzhi.

This little thing shouldn't be a big deal to him, right?

Without a word, Baili Moqing grabbed her waist and leaped into the air. Although he was filled with poison, after suppressing it, even if his internal energy was low, it couldn't affect his figure, speed, or strength in a short period of time.

"what!"

Without noticing, his body suddenly flew into the air. The sudden feeling of weightlessness made Shu He subconsciously hug the shoulders and neck of the person next to him.

This was a completely different experience from when Beiji took her away.

When she and Beiji were being chased by the tiger, they were moving forward steadily. In addition, her attention was completely on the big tiger at that time, and she didn't pay attention at all to what it felt like to use light skills to shuttle through the woods.

At this time, Baili Moqing was leading her to climb up. With just a tap of the toes, their bodies would pass over two meters.

Then, he flew a few more meters. The continuous feeling of his heart sinking and his body being buffeted by the wind was very abrupt and uncomfortable.

She put her face against his chest, and the strong wind blew away all the scent on his body. Some of it entered her nostrils, and it was the very faint scent of jasmine.

Yazhi stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at the two figures leaping over the cliff. Her eyes moved slightly, and an expression of envy and surprise appeared on her face.

At this moment, she caught a glimpse of more than a dozen dark blue figures appearing. Her face changed drastically and she hurriedly ran towards Shu He and Baili Moqing.

The two people hanging on the cliff had not noticed anything unusual.

Baili Moqing looked back and forth above the cliff, but they were almost at the top and still couldn't find the cartilage grass.

During the break, he suddenly saw a few green plants on a cliff, with a little red in the middle, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

He climbed over, holding Shu He with his left hand, and hung on the rock wall with his right hand, asking, "Is this it?"

When Shu He heard him ask, she assumed he had found the cartilage grass. Her strange emotions were replaced by joy. But when she looked at the plants not far away, her joy turned to a hint of disappointment.

"No, this is Cloverleaf, not Cartilage Grass."

Although it was not cartilage grass, Shu He still picked the cliff bell flower, not for any other reason, but because this thing is also an extremely rare and precious herb that has significant effects on epilepsy, blood vessel blockage, stroke, and even tuberculosis.

After putting the cliff bell flowers into the backpack, Shu He suddenly caught a glimpse of a purple and red field swaying in the wind on the back of the ridge.

"There!" Shu He patted Baili Moqing's chest excitedly.

Following the direction of her finger, Baili Moqing found a foothold there, and with another jump, he came to the rock where cartilage grass and qilin grass grew.

"This..." Shu He looked at the large patch of cartilage grass in front of him and was so shocked that he could hardly speak.

This is too much!

Why is this valley outside the mountain so magical?

As time went on, Baili Moqing's physical strength was greatly depleted and his internal energy dissipated. He now felt a bit tired.

"What are you standing there for? Pick them quickly!"

Shu He glanced at him and nodded quickly.

Although cartilage grass is highly poisonous, it is okay to pick it with your hands as long as there are no wounds on your hands.

The most worrying thing is that if there are injuries on your hands and the cartilage grass is damaged when picking, and the juice seeps into the wound, it can easily lead to poisoning.

Just as Shu He was picking the fruits carefully, a small green snake suddenly flew out and headed straight for Baili Moqing's neck.

He also saw the little snake, his pupils dilated slightly, but he did not dare to relax his hands at all.

Shu He was startled and subconsciously grabbed the little snake. Just before the little snake bit Baili Moqing, he held it tightly in his hand, then swung it away.

Baili Moqing's eyes changed slightly, and for the first time, a hint of nervousness appeared on his calm face. "Are you not hurt?"

Shu He shook his head, still feeling frightened.

How come there are snakes around this cartilage grass?

What kind of snake is that? Why have I never seen it before?

She looked at her hand and didn't see any wound, but just now, she seemed to have felt a momentary sting.

Could it be an illusion?

Without wasting any more time, she quickly picked a few more stalks of cartilage grass and some detoxifying Qilin grass. After putting all the herbs she needed into her small backpack, she suddenly heard Yazhi's shout from below.

"Come on!"

Baili Moqing and Shu He looked over and saw that Yazhi had reached the halfway point of the mountain, and behind her was a small group of Xishan people wearing dark blue linen clothes. They were holding ropes and bows and arrows in their hands. They looked like they were patrolling the mountain or collecting herbs.

They also spotted Shu He and his companions picking cartilage grass on the cliff, and hurriedly shouted, "Someone's invading! Quickly report to the clan leader!"

One of them turned around and ran towards the tribe, while the others rushed towards the cliff holding bows and arrows and long iron swords.

When Yazhi saw that they had discovered the people of the Xishan tribe, she immediately turned and ran away.

Relatively speaking, her danger level was much higher than those two. After all, she was just an unarmed pharmacist. If she didn't run, she would definitely be caught.

The Xishan people's treatment of invading outsiders is very terrible.

She can't be caught!

She ran down the mountain desperately, trying to return the way she came.

However, it was too late for her to escape, as two people were already chasing her.

"Yazhi is in danger!"

Seeing this, Shu He hurriedly patted Baili Moqing and asked him to go down.

"Who are you? How dare you steal the cartilage grass from my Xishan tribe!"

At this time, the Xishan tribe who stayed on the top of Xishan Peak were also alarmed by the movement below, and discovered Baili Moqing and Shu He hanging on the cliff wall and stealing cartilage grass.

Some of them shot arrows at the two men, and some picked up stones and threw them at them.

The stones hit the stone wall with a loud bang, and the cold arrows came through the wind.
