Chapter 319 Thrilling
Shan Mancheng looked at the sky and said, "Rest first, and look for it after midnight."
Although his purpose of coming today was to test Shen Qingqian, his real purpose was to find the earth dragon Wuqi.
When Shen Qingqian heard this, she frowned.
If she looked for it after midnight, she would have no chance to run to the top of the mountain to sign in.
"Mr. Shan, how about this? We go up to the top of the mountain first, and then look down from the top. This might be more convenient." Shen Qingqian suggested.
With so many pairs of eyes, she might not be able to avoid them all, so it’s better not to take the risk.
Only if she goes to the top of the mountain with them will she have the chance to sign in.
Shan Mancheng stared at her for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, Sixth Miss, wait downstairs. When we find it, we'll bring it to you for identification."
Earth Dragon Black Lacquer and similar medicines must be placed in a jade box within an hour after leaving the soil. Earth Dragon Black Lacquer can only be taken out when decocting the medicine. Taking it out in the middle of the process will lose its efficacy. This is why Shan Mancheng must bring Shen Qingqian with him.
If the one here is Earth Dragon Black Paint, then if Shen Qingqian goes down the mountain to identify it, the medicinal properties will be gone, so she must be on the scene.
"No," Shen Qingqian quickly argued for herself, "If I stay here, what if you guys are delayed up there? Then our trip would be in vain. Besides, are you willing to let me stay here alone?"
Shan Mancheng felt strange in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. "You're right, but it's not easy for you to go up with us."
Why did she have to go to the top of the mountain? Was that what she was going to do that night?
"It's okay, it's okay. I can do it. Just tie the rope around my waist and make sure I don't fall down." Shen Qingqian said quickly.
It’s just rock climbing, it’s not like she hasn’t tried it before.
"In that case, Captain Qi, let's get ready and continue to climb to the top of the mountain." Shan Mancheng said to the person leading the way.
Captain Qi saluted and turned around to make arrangements.
It was already very dark, and fog began to rise in the mountains. Shen Qingqian and the others could only see within two meters with their torches.
"Brothers, be careful, there may be snakes here, but don't be afraid. The powder that Doctor Qian gave us can repel snakes. As long as we don't take the initiative to attack, these snakes will not attack us." Captain Qi warned.
Shen Qingqian took out the oil paper bag that Captain Qi had given her and sprinkled the powder on herself.
"Sixth Miss, I'll help you sprinkle the water from behind." Shan Mancheng said.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingqian pushed her hair in front of her and said, "Okay, thank you for your help."
"You're welcome." Shan Mancheng sprinkled anti-snake powder on Shen Qingqian's back, while others sprinkled it for him.
Except for Shen Qingqian, everyone here is skilled, but she is most familiar with Shan Mancheng, so she is tied to Shan Mancheng.
"Mr. Shan, you have just recovered from a serious injury. Can you do it?" Shen Qingqian was a little worried.
If Cheng San or Cheng Yun were here, she would never question it, but she didn't know Shan Mancheng's strength. If he wasn't good enough, wouldn't it be a burden to bring her along?
Shan Mancheng checked the knot at his waist and curled his lips when he heard it. "You'll know in a moment."
His confidence made Shen Qingqian feel less anxious, but she still felt uneasy.
After the group was ready, they started climbing to the top of the mountain.
Shan Mancheng chose a location where there were not too many vines, grabbed two vines with both hands and climbed up.
Shen Qingqian also imitated his movements and followed him with a grunt.
Everything went smoothly at first, but just as he was about to reach the top of the mountain, Shen Qingqian suddenly slipped, his hands missed, and he fell straight down!
