Meng Yuqing handed over the subsequent matters to Xia, and Xuan took him off the stage.
As soon as he went down, many people surrounded him enthusiastically and greeted him. Meng Yuqing stuck close to Xuan and responded to them with a smile.
Xuan separated himself from the enthusiastic crowd and walked out with Meng Yuqing.
It was not until Xia asked someone to bring a large flat stone and placed the three herbs on it and told everyone that they could view the herbs that he drew everyone's attention away.
"Everyone may come up now and carefully identify the herbs. You are only allowed to look, not touch. I will have someone guarding them. The herbs will only be on display for three days. Hunting teams and patrols will be given priority. Hurry and identify them, and keep an eye out when you go out tomorrow."
After leaving the crowd, Meng Yuqing patted his chest and said.
“They were so welcoming.”
"Because you did something great, everyone likes you very much." Xuan looked at him with a smile.
After returning to the room, the system sent a notification that the task was completed.
Random task: Promote three kinds of herbs (completed)
Gain energy. The host can use more energy. Please check for details.
When he opened the energy storage space, the mist-like gas inside increased a little, but it was still not enough for him to go shopping in the mall.
Closing the space, Meng Yuqing thought about the uses of black thorn grass and how to discover new herbs.
The effect of the herbs in this world is much greater than he imagined. Saving Luo today was also forced. He was not sure whether he could save himself until Luo was out of danger. Fortunately, the two herbs were very effective.
The next morning, Meng Yuqing took the remaining black thorn grass and asked Qiu Ye for a stone bowl and a wooden stick to use as a pestle.
Qiu Ye looked at him disapprovingly, insisting that he wait for Xuan to come back before letting him mess with the black thorn grass. Meng Yuqing couldn't persuade him and could only look through the "Complete Data of the Beast World Continent" in the system first.
When Xuan came back, he saw Meng Yuqing sitting at the door, staring blankly ahead.
"What are you thinking about?" Xuan approached him and waved.
Meng Yuqing came back to her senses and was instantly excited to see Xuan coming back. She jumped up and hugged Xuan.
"You're finally back!!!"
Xuan was frightened by his enthusiastic attitude and stood there at a loss. As soon as he loosened his grip, the small wild animal he brought back ran away.
!!!
"Hurry!! Catch them back!! They will be very useful!" Meng Yuqing let go of Xuan, and seeing that he had no reaction, he slapped him twice and went to chase them himself.
How could Xuan let a sub-beast catch a wild beast, even a small one? He immediately took action to catch the fleeing beast.
Qiu Ye heard the noise outside the house and stuck his head out to take a look, then retreated back into the house. Well, you don’t have to worry too much about young people’s affairs, as long as they get along well.
After finishing lunch quickly, Xuan was ready to continue building the house. Meng Yuqing looked at Qiu Ye with a sharp gaze while holding the blackthorn grass and the medicine pounding tools. Qiu Ye waved his hand helplessly and said.
"Go ahead, be careful."
Having obtained permission, Meng Yuqing happily followed Xuan.
"Xuan, what weapons do you usually use?" Meng Yuqing said happily behind Xuan.
"Weapons? We orcs don't use weapons. Our teeth and claws are our best weapons." Xuan looked at him in confusion.
"So when you transform into human form to fight or hunt, do you just go in without any equipment?"
"Why do we have to fight and hunt in human form? We can just use animal form," Xuan asked back.
This really stumped Meng Yuqing. Yes, the beast form of the orcs is the best weapon. No, there are also sub-beasts, and sub-beasts don't have beast forms.
"But sub-beasts don't have animal forms. Without weapons, we have no power to protect ourselves."
Xuan paused and turned to look at him, his eyes showing a look of heartache again. Meng Yuqing was stunned. What was Xuan thinking about again? He had imagined that he was not an adult before, so what was he thinking about this time?
"We will protect you. If we can't protect the sub-beasts, the orcs will be useless." Xuan said seriously.
"That's not the case. Even if you are very powerful and can withstand all dangers, we are not the same person after all. It is inevitable that we will be separated. What if the danger happens when you are not around? Then we will have no power to resist at all." When Meng Yuqing said this, he suddenly realized something, immediately closed his mouth, and looked at Xuan cautiously.
Xuan Dingding looked at him without saying a word, his eyes somewhat sad.
Meng Yuqing immediately explained, "Sorry, I'm not..."
"You're right." Xuan spoke before Meng Yuqing could finish her words.
"So this is what you want to make with this grass? A weapon?"
Looking at the black thorn grass in Meng Yuqing's hand, Xuan remembered what Meng Yuqing had said before about the function of the black thorn grass, and he began to understand what Meng Yuqing wanted to do.
"Yes, if you apply the juice of the grass to a knife, then as long as you use the knife to break the skin, the toxin will quickly enter the body and subdue the enemy."
"In this case, we need something sharper. A stone knife may not be suitable. It takes too long to polish it to the point where it can easily pierce the skin of a wild beast, and it wears out easily, so it is not suitable." After understanding Meng Yuqing's idea of making weapons, Xuan seriously began to think about suitable weapon materials.
"Don't worry. We still need to test the medicinal properties first. If a large amount of herbal juice is needed to take effect, then there's no need to apply it to the weapon."
Xuan nodded to show that he understood.
They arrived at the site where the house was to be built. Mu and Lie were already waiting there. After a quick greeting, Xuan led them to continue building the house. The few small wild animals he brought with him were tied up by vines and could not move.
Meng Yuqing squatted aside and put the black thorn grass into a stone bowl and crushed it. When it was almost crushed, he dipped some grass juice on a small wooden stick and walked towards the beast.
Xuan had been paying attention to his movements. When he saw him about to approach the beast, he turned around, said something to Lie, and walked to Meng Yuqing.
"Give it to me, tell me how you plan to do it, and I'll do it." Xuan stretched out his hand and said to Meng Yuqing.
Meng Yuqing looked at the small wild animals, the smallest of which was as big as a large dog, and decisively handed the thing to Xuan.
Let Xuan go, even though he's tied up and can't move, but what if something happens? This isn't something I can subdue with my bare hands.
"Apply the grass juice to their wounds and see the effect. Be careful not to get it on yourself," Meng Yuqing warned.
"Okay, I'll pay attention."
The beasts had wounds on their bodies from being caught. When Xuan approached them with a small wooden stick, they began to struggle and make threatening sounds towards Xuan.
Lie had stopped and was looking over here. Xuan smeared the grass juice into the wounds of each beast and carefully observed the condition of the beast.
Meng Yuqing also walked over to Xuan and stared at the beast.
"Can the system keep time?"
"Yes, host."
"Time."
The beasts' struggling movements gradually subsided. The smallest one had already closed its eyes and was completely motionless. The others, depending on their size, also stopped moving one after another. The largest one, only the size of a yellow ox, held out the longest, but it didn't last more than a minute!
