Chapter Twenty-Four: Guardians of Spirit Herbs (2/2)

Gong Moze said: "There's no other way, we have to kill it!"

Lin Jin shook his head and said, "No, this snake is very intelligent. If we kill it, we won't be able to get out of here!"

"How about I distract it, and then you guys take the opportunity to gather the herbs!"

Captain, I'll go! Everyone rushed to lure the snake away. Gong Moze's face darkened. "Can any of you run as fast as me?"

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

Gong Moze looked at Lin Jin and said, "Dr. Lin, I'm entrusting my cousin to you." Without waiting for Lin Jin's reply, he turned to walk towards the snake. Lin Jin quickly grabbed him, saying with a helpless tone, "Are all you soldiers so fearless?" Gong Moze replied without hesitation, "Yes, we are, but we are all prepared to sacrifice ourselves at any time." As Gong Moze said this, all the soldiers straightened their backs, their eyes resolute, and said, "Prepared to sacrifice ourselves at any time!"

Lin Jin was also moved by their words, and then said firmly: Don't worry! No one should take any risks. I have already prepared the tools. You just wait for me here. I'm going to pick the Orchid Star Grass!

How could Gong Moze let her go alone? He held Lin Jin's hand tightly. Lin Jin blinked and looked at Gong Moze. "Captain Gong, don't worry! I value my life and won't take any risks. You have to trust me!"

Lin Jin's words seemed to possess a magical power. Gong Moze slowly released his grip on Lin Jin's hand. "No matter what you see later, don't make a sound! And don't go over there either, Gong Moze, can you do that?" Lin Jin looked at Gong Moze quietly, and Gong Moze nodded with difficulty. Lin Jin took a deep breath and walked alone towards the location of the giant snake. She moved lightly, trying not to make a sound. By the time the giant snake noticed her, Lin Jin had already reached the edge of the cliff. She saw a patch of orchid-like star grass growing on the cliff face, and a lake could be vaguely seen below. Lin Jin wanted to observe it further! Suddenly, the giant snake stretched out its head and attacked Lin Jin.

Everyone behind held their breath! Lin Jin calmly stretched out his hand, and the snake suddenly stopped, staring blankly at the formed ginseng in front of it! After showing the snake the ginseng, Lin Jin put it away!

The giant white snake paced anxiously as Lin Jin put the ginseng away. After watching it circle several times, Lin Jin finally spoke softly:

"I'll trade you ginseng for two stalks of Orchid Star Grass. I only need two."

Since you have so many anyway, I'll trade you two of these thousand-year-old ginsengs. You won't lose out!

The giant snake shook its head, then picked two stalks from the cliff with its mouth and handed them to Lin Jin. Lin Jin took the Orchid Star Grass, put one into his spatial storage, then took out the Ginseng from his storage and put it into the giant snake's mouth, saying "Thank you," before turning around and going back into the cave!

The giant snake watched as Lin Jin walked back into the cave and then disappeared.

When Gong Moze saw Lin Jin return unharmed with the Orchid Star Grass, he finally breathed a sigh of relief! They were standing far away and couldn't hear the conversation between Lin Jin and the snake. They only saw Lin Jin give something to the snake, and then the snake traded the Orchid Star Grass for it!

Everyone had many questions! But Gong Moze ordered that nothing about today's events be revealed. Anyone who did would be punished for treason! This was something Chief Yu had specifically instructed them to do before they arrived!
