"Can it be cured?"
His low, hoarse voice rang in my ears.
Shen Qi came back to his senses and responded, "Okay, but not now. I need to go find some herbs."
"See if there's anything I need in my room."
Shen Qi came to his house and searched it, but did not see any herbs similar to "wormwood leaf".
She shook her head and said, "No, it seems I have no choice but to look outside."
"I'll go with you."
Shen Qi looked at him and said, "Okay, then I'll go back to the Tiger Tribe first."
When she arrived at the Tiger Tribe, she found Bai Yuwei and told him that she wanted to look for medicinal herbs.
When he heard that she was going out again, he frowned slightly, "Qiqi, I'll go with you."
Before she could speak, Si Jingzhan said from behind her, "The Tiger Tribe's defenses have been a little low in the past two days. Aren't you going to deal with it?"
There is such a thing?
Shen Qi looked into his amber eyes and said, "Bai Yuwei, you just became the tribe leader not long ago. Go and strengthen the tribe's defense first. It won't take us long to find herbs, don't worry."
Bai Yuwei thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you guys have to be careful. Please help me take good care of Qiqi."
Si Jingzhan accepted the look he gave her and said, "I will."
Bai Yuwei grabbed her hand reluctantly.
Shen Qi looked at his worried and nostalgic eyes and patted the back of his hand, "Don't worry, he's here too, nothing will happen to me."
Bai Yuwei secretly glared at Si Jingzhan.
I feel uneasy when he is around!
Halfway through the journey, they found a stream, Shen Qi washed the red fruit, and began to eat it.
Seeing the orc sitting next to her with his eyes closed, she gave him a red fruit, not knowing what he was thinking.
Si Jingzhan slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of deep purple, sparkling eyes. He glanced at her, took the red fruit in his hand, and took a bite. It was very crisp.
He asked, "What is the name of the herb you are looking for?"
"Artemisia."
“Any specific directions?”
Shen Qi finished the remaining few bites in a few bites, "I estimate that if there is no danger, it should be here soon."
The positioning provided by the system is not very precise, only a rough direction. The closer you get, the stronger the sensation.
"Let's go, keep moving forward."
Above the forest, there are dense layers of trees and intertwined branches.
Feeling that it was becoming difficult to walk, Shen Qi looked down and saw that the soil was like boiling water, bubbling with small bubbles.
Her feet slowly sank into the mud, as if a pair of invisible hands were trying to drag her into the deep earth.
Shen Qi's eyes focused, and he used the retractable straps to jump onto the branch in front, squatted down, and looked at the situation below.
The soil within a radius of a hundred meters was in the same condition as she had just experienced, with the soil underneath looking rotten and rolling.
Si Jingzhan also felt something was wrong under his feet. He took two steps back and found that he was sinking deeper.
He immediately transformed into a beast form and flew in the air. Seeing Shen Qi land steadily on the branch, he flew in front of her and uttered two words: "Come up."
Shen Qi jumped onto his back, and he cried out, flew through the dense leaves, and flew overhead.
"Which direction?"
Shen Qi drew a horizontal line on his back with his finger, and Si Jingzhan immediately understood and flew to the right.
"We should be beyond the scope of that land. Let's go down from here."
Although it is much more convenient to carry her in beast form, the system positioning display is very weak in the air, and only when she is on the ground can she sense the location of the herbs more strongly.
Si Jingzhan rushed down quickly, saw that the soil on the ground was normal, and landed with his wings flapping.
“Very close.”
The dense and lush green grass in front of them blocked their view. Shen Qi pushed aside the grass and stepped in.
"Ai Ye is nearby."
The system prompt sounded, and she glanced ahead, seeing lush green grass standing on the fertile land.
The appearance of mugwort is very similar to these weeds. It would probably take a long time to find it among so many leaves.
Si Jingzhan looked at the dense grass and asked, "What does mugwort look like?"
"It looks similar to these weeds, but the difference is that there are red buds in the middle of its leaves."
He pursed his lips and said, "That's a little hard to find." The weeds covered an area even wider than the mud they were stuck in just now.
She looked up at the lush grass, where a few butterflies were flitting through it. "But the buds inside the mugwort will attract butterflies."
Si Jingzhan looked at the butterflies flying in the air. "So they can accurately find the mugwort leaves?"
This is a butterfly beast that cannot transform. It only has a beautiful appearance and likes to stay among flowers and plants.
Some females do like these butterfly beasts and will catch a few and raise them when they see them, but they will die after a few days.
He stood where a butterfly landed, and the butterfly flew away immediately. He reached out and pulled apart a few blades of grass, but there was no red bud inside.
"They don't seem to know where they are either."
Shen Qi looked around. The grass was lush and should have rustled when the wind blew, but there was no rustling. Only a little bit of wind could be seen causing the grass leaves to sway slightly for a while.
It may be because the terrain is sheltered from the wind, so it is airtight.
Furthermore, the only scent that attracts butterflies is the red buds inside the mugwort leaves, which are surrounded by grass leaves and emit a much weaker scent.
Shen Qi opened her lips and said, “Only by using the power of the wind can we find the mugwort leaf faster.”
"The power of the wind..." Si Jingzhan murmured, and suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her, "You mean, use the wind to blow away these grass leaves, exposing the wrapped red buds, and spreading the scent, so that the butterfly beast can smell where it is more easily?"
“Yes, and besides, Feng Yuan is…” Before Shen Qi finished speaking, Si Jingzhan knew what she wanted to say.
Immediately, he changed his form, a deep purple eagle standing proudly on the ground, but the area was a little small, so he retracted his strong and agile wings a little.
The corners of Shen Qi's lips curled up slightly, "Be gentler, don't blow all the butterflies away."
Large, deep purple eyes looked at her, and the beautiful pupil color seemed to suck her soul in.
Shen Qi looked away and looked at the patch of weeds.
Si Jingzhan also looked forward, his slender purple eyes containing sharpness.
He couldn't use too much force, otherwise he would probably overturn the grass leaves, making it even more difficult to find.
He lifted one wing slightly and flapped it slightly.
When the wind blew, the grass in front of me was stirred up into layers of waves, and the grass leaves bumped into each other and swayed for a few seconds.
The wind is strong enough to move the grass, but to the butterfly, it is just a breeze.
As the wind blew, several butterflies circled around a small blade of grass, as if they had not yet found their exact location and were circling in it.
Si Jingzhan spread his wings and waved them gently again.
This time the butterflies finally found the smell that attracted them, and they rushed towards a blade of grass one after another.
Shen Qi walked past the weeds and headed towards them, waving away the butterflies that were perched on the red buds.
Pulling out the entire grass, he said, "Yes, this is mugwort."
