Wang Xiaolan, seeing that her grandfather was so knowledgeable about this plant, asked, "Do you know this plant?"
"Yes, not many people know about this plant now."
"Grandpa, can you teach me?"
"Come with me"
They came to a bush, and the old man pointed at a vine and said, "This plant is called the Rat Horse Vine. Its poison is mainly in the rhizome, not the leaves. If you want to pick it, you can cut it with scissors. Some juice will flow out of the rhizome, and you can collect the liquid in a bottle."
The old man was silent for a moment and then said, "This plant is actually a very good medicinal herb. However, if it is used by people with bad intentions, it can become harmful."
The old man told her that this rat-horse vine is very effective in treating snake venom.
After hearing what the old man said, Wang Xiaolan secretly rejoiced that the trip was worthwhile.

Wang Xiaolan also collected some samples, put them in a basket, and recorded the efficacy in a notebook.
"Grandpa, thank you for teaching me so much knowledge about medicinal herbs. Thank you so much."

"No, Grandpa, we will see each other again."
"Girl, it's getting late. Let's go down the mountain quickly. It will be foggy soon."
Wang Xiaolan said goodbye to the old man reluctantly and hurried down the mountain. When she was almost at the foot of the mountain, she ran into Huang Jinhua and Liu Jinlong.
As soon as Huang Jinhua saw Wang Xiaolan's expression, a nameless anger arose in her heart.
Then he angrily cursed loudly: "Little bitch..."
