She was confident she could find the Moon Whisper Grass and the Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flower with her knowledge of distinguishing dicinal herbs. She would think about the rest another ti.
Qi Ye took a deep breath and replied, “Alright!”
They dispersed in search of the Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flower as soon as he spoke.
“Miss Jiuyue, this…”
Deputy General Sun looked at them and wanted to ask An Jiuyue for her opinion.
An Jiuyue glanced at him and motioned for him to keep quiet.
They had no right to monopolize anything as they did not own the mountain or the dicinal herbs on the ground. It was also none of their business how others wanted to dig for the herbs.
“Let’s continue digging.”
Deputy General Sun sighed softly and replied, “Okay.”
So what if people were competing with them for the herbs? He could not attack the youngsters if the princess consort said nothing about this.
Besides, he was not the kind of person to occupy a mountain and be a tyrant, right?
…
After so ti…
Shen Zhuxin’s face paled as she looked at how few Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flowers she had in her hand.
“Zhuxin, what should we do now?” Qi Ye asked. His expression was also rather sour.
They were still too late. The other two had dug up almost all the dicinal herbs.
Moreover, he had noticed that the lady among the two dug up the dicinal herbs rapidly. She could dig up ten stalks every ti they did one.
Even their pharmacist, Shen Zhuxin, could not compare to An Jiuyue’s speed.
Shen Zhuxin sighed softly. She turned around and looked at An Jiuyue and Deputy General Sun.
They had no choice but to be thick-skinned and ask them for so herbs. Otherwise, their trip would be in vain.
“Brother Qi Ye, let’s discuss with them and see if they can give us so.”
“Huh?” Their companions were stunned too.
Was being thick-skinned and asking them for so herbs sothing the people of the 18 stockaded villages would do?
Moreover, these herbs were extrely useful. If their speculation was correct, the two must be here to dig up these herbs because of the epidemic.
Would they give them so herbs if they asked them for them forcefully?
“Zhuxin, we—”
“I really have no choice. We have to bring so herbs back,” Shen Zhuxin interrupted him. She looked at the herbs in her hand and shook her head.
“Zhuxin is right. We have to bring so herbs back,” Qi Ye said.
“We could ask them where they’re from and send so herbs to them after we find more. Everyone is shuttling back and forth because of the epidemic. We should help each other, right?”
They had dug up so many herbs—they should not need all of them, right?
“Can we?” the others asked Qi Ye and Shen Zhuxin in unison.
…
“Miss Jiuyue, what are they discussing?”
Deputy General Sun felt sothing was amiss when he saw them gathered together.
Are they eyeing our herbs? If they are, I won’t let them succeed! Many soldiers in the military camp have contracted the epidemic. These dicinal herbs are only a temporary supplent and can only be used to treat the seriously ill.
“Sothing’s up,” An Jiuyue reminded Deputy General Sun in a hushed voice as she continued digging out the Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue flower beside her.
