Chapter 153: A Discovery
Su Xiao followed Shang Ziming for a while, then suddenly he stopped.
"What's wrong?" Su Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively grabbed his arm.
Shang Ziming suddenly froze. Su Xiao felt the muscles under her fingers tighten and gripped them even tighter. She began to stammer, "Wh-what's wrong? Say something."
Shang Ziming felt the softness and coolness on his arm, his heart pounding and his ears turning slightly red. "It's okay, I found a roe deer. You stay here, I'll go catch it and come back, okay?"
"Smack!"
After hearing his explanation, Su Xiao impulsively slapped him in resentment. As soon as she did, she regretted it, rubbing her reddened arm with annoyance, and said with an embarrassed laugh, "Haha, I saw a mosquito, didn't I hurt you?"
She mentally screamed, "Damn it, why are you so nervous about the roe deer? I was scared to death!"
"No." Shang Zimu suddenly grabbed the small hand that seemed soft and boneless, which was wreaking havoc on his arm. His tense body was like an arrow ready to be released.
"Uh..." Su Xiao looked at the large hand that was gripping her wrist, which was burning hot.
She has a cold constitution, and the alternation of hot and cold feels quite comfortable?
"I'm sorry, I overstepped my bounds." Shang Ziming also looked at their hands. The soft, slightly cool touch felt so good. He was so reluctant to let go, but he had to. He was afraid that if she continued to act recklessly, he would really lose control.
"Wait here, wait for me." With that, he turned and dashed away.
Su Xiao tried to call out to him, but it was too late; Er Kang's outstretched hand fell limply to his side.
"Little Six, quickly observe the surroundings." Su Xiao immediately instructed Little Six in the space, and dared not relax herself, becoming vigilant in all directions.
It's not that she's being dramatic, she's just being more careful and valuing her life.
Girls are naturally less attracted to cold-blooded creatures, and besides, deep in the mountains and forests, many things are poisonous; it's not worth dying from a single bite.
"Master, don't worry, Xiao Liu guarantees to keep a 360-degree, no-blind-spot surveillance on you." Xiao Liu assured him without daring to slack off.
Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but then, thinking about Shang Ziming's expression just now, she belatedly realized that something was wrong. A sense of irritation welled up in her heart, and she looked around restlessly, trying to find something to distract herself.
Then, what did she see?
"Xiao Liu, over there, is that Ganoderma lucidum?" Su Xiao excitedly pointed to the clusters on the withered tree vines not far away.
"Oh my, it really is! Two of them are over a thousand years old, and some are over a hundred years old. They're in pretty good condition." Xiao Liu got excited too.
"Hiss!" Su Xiao exclaimed excitedly, "Little Six, we're rich! We're rich!"
She eagerly stepped forward, yet was somewhat at a loss for what to do.
After thinking for a moment, she discussed with Xiao Liu, "Let's put some into our space, and have Master come and get the rest."
“Alright. You can put those two thousand-year-old ones into your spatial storage and nurture them for now. Who knows, they might even become spirit-grade flowers in a few thousand years…”
Listening to Xiao Liu's rambling, Su Xiao couldn't help but roll her eyes. Here we go again. In a few thousand years, huh?
"Little Six, look at you! There's such a big piece of Ganoderma lucidum lying here, and you didn't even notice it. If I hadn't seen it, how much would we have lost? What use would I have for you?" Su Xiao lectured Little Six while putting a large piece of Ganoderma lucidum into her space.
Xiao Liu fell silent after being spoken to, and silently repented.
