Where is the thriving scene from last night?
The entire medicinal herb field looked as if it had been ravaged by a pack of ferocious wild boars!
The ridges between the fields were trampled to a pulp.
Large numbers of mature, plump dew-laden grass spikes, glistening with large dewdrops, were forcibly broken and twisted! They were discarded like garbage in the mud, covered in filth! The sturdy stems were also trampled and bent over, the leaves broken and mangled.
