"How do you know what he’s talking about?"
Curiously examining Li Boyang and Big Girl, the perplexed Er Tu finally opened his mouth to explain.
"Speaking of ’Earth vein disturbance,’ it actually traces back to the ’Heavenly fire’ that happened early last year."
"Sothing fell from the sky..."
"Causing the Black Cloud Marsh area to be shrouded in a toxic black mist, leaving a hundred-mile radius barren."
"Then, not long ago, our Mountain God grandma killed an Evil God that ran out from Black Cloud Marsh."
"That Evil God was originally sealed in Black Cloud Marsh, ford by the Earth Evil Qi of the nearby mountains."
"With its death, the earth veins in this area beca chaotic, and even the black mist from Black Cloud Marsh started to spread outward."
"As a last resort, many Mountain Spirits and Wild Monsters aware of the danger began migrating outward..."
Speaking here, Er Tu’s voice paused slightly before he fixed his eyes on Li Boyang and Big Girl, urging them.
"Let remind you, not all Mountain Spirits and Wild Monsters are like , mostly vegetarian."
"So, for the ti being, it’s best if you avoid going outside the village too often..."
"Otherwise, if you run into other at-eating Spirit Monsters, they won’t be as friendly as I am."
Er Tu’s tone was sowhat heavy when he said this.
Li Boyang could hear that this was a sincere warning from the other party.
Just as Er Tu said, like itself, rational Spirit Monsters willing to communicate with Mountain People are indeed very rare within the entire Spirit Monster community.
And it is due to Er Tu’s uniqueness that it chose to be among the first batch of Spirit Monsters to migrate.
"Oh, and after you return to the village, you can also pass this ssage to the other villagers, advising them to stay away from the mountains and forests during this period."
"Especially the hunter in your village..."
"He recklessly hunted mountain creatures last year, enraging so territorial Spirit Monsters long ago."
"If it weren’t for the protection of Mountain God grandma, he would have died a violent death last winter."
"This ti, there might be Spirit Monsters taking advantage of the situation, so tell him to be more cautious and avoid frequent visits to the mountains and forests."
Er Tu vowed that its reminder was purely out of goodwill.
But it noticed that the little baby in the back basket seed to have a different look in his eyes after hearing its warning.
[Wait... could that hunter be...]
As if realizing sothing, Er Tu suddenly widened his eyes.
Because the hunter’s frequent trips to the mountains and forests seem to match the tiline of this baby’s conception?
For a tiny village with only a dozen households, this couldn’t be a simple coincidence.
"Alright! I won’t say anything more unnecessary."
"In any case, you two little ones just rember not to run around outside all the ti during this period."
"When I co back next ti, I’ll exchange herbs with you."
Seeing this situation, Li Boyang snapped back from his thoughts and patted the back basket again, signaling Big Girl to give the herbs in her pocket to Er Tu.
"Huh? Just give it to him like that?"
Upon understanding Li Boyang’s intention.
Even though Big Girl was very reluctant, she obediently reached into her pocket.
Then, under Er Tu’s surprised gaze, Big Girl tossed the herb she had dug earlier at its feet.
"There, big liar, this is a gift from my little brother to you."
"Next ti, you must bring Big Money with you, I..."
Big Girl hadn’t finished her sentence when Li Boyang slapped the back basket again.
She turned her head in confusion, looking at Li Boyang, and paused for quite a while before understanding his gestures.
"My little brother says that next ti you trade herbs, you can use... books to offset the money?"
As she said this, even Big Girl seed a bit unsure, until Li Boyang nodded affirmatively before she continued.
"It’s best if they are books related to dicine or the Herb Scripture. My little brother wants to learn how to identify herbs."
Collecting herbs throughout the mountains is Li Boyang’s only source of inco currently, so he naturally wants to learn how to evaluate the value of herbs.
In this regard, those Wild Doctors surely wouldn’t teach such a foundational skill to others—they’d be doing great if they weren’t exploiting him already.
Only in front of this Er Tu did Li Boyang believe that it could find a way to obtain so dical Herb Scriptures.
"No problem, that’s easy, I’ll rember it."
With a strange look, Er Tu glanced at Li Boyang, encountering such a studious baby for the first ti.
Not even able to speak yet, and already pondering how to read.
[Indeed, what is Innate Divine is truly different from ordinary people from birth.]
With this thought flashing through its mind, Er Tu picked up the herb thrown on the ground by Big Girl, then transford into a mighty eagle and soared into the sky.
"Screech!"
Along with the piercing, loud cry of the eagle.
Li Boyang and Big Girl instinctively looked up, watching the eagle’s silhouette gradually fade away until it vanished into the clouds.
"So amazing..."
Unable to snap out of it for a long ti.
Big Girl’s face no longer showed any disdain for Er Tu, replaced by silent awe.
Big Girl was just a precocious child, not truly ignorant.
Though the ability of Thousand Transformations didn’t seem particularly special in Er Tu’s descriptions.
Even when it transford into her likeness, Big Girl felt more wonder than anything else.
However, only after witnessing it transform into an eagle with her own eyes.
This wonder gradually evolved into shock and even fear for Big Girl.
Needless to say, with the robust physique displayed by the eagle, it could easily snatch up an undernourished child.
"Little brother, shall we continue treasure hunting?"
Thankfully, a child’s emotions co quickly and fade just as quickly.
Big Girl soon ca back to her senses and focused on Li Boyang in the back basket.
"Ah!"
Imdiately spotting the eager anticipation in Big Girl’s eyes.
Li Boyang hesitated but eventually chose to nod.
Er Tu was among the first batch of Spirit Monsters to migrate, indicating that the area around the village wasn’t too dangerous for now.
But as ti goes by, when more Spirit Monsters begin appearing near the village, that will be the most perilous ti.
Li Boyang and Big Girl need to find more valuable herbs before then.
Moreover, even if they encounter danger.
Unless it’s a direct confrontation with a Nai Fu-level Evil God, Li Boyang is confident in keeping the two of them safe.
The only concern for Li Boyang now is how to communicate the news of Spirit Monster migration to the villagers and make them believe its authenticity.
This information has too wide-ranging implications, especially at the start of spring.
If handled carelessly, the little village with just over a dozen families might not need to worry about surviving the coming winter.
