Chapter 46 Ginseng Again



Qibao crossed his arms and said, "I gave you the drink because I saw you injured and I couldn't bear it, so I saved you. As a wolf, you can't be too greedy."

The white wolf thought for a moment, bit Qibao's sleeve again, and dragged her out. Qibao thought the white wolf was angry because she hadn't given its children the spiritual spring water, and wanted to kick them out. But the white wolf didn't stop even after leaving the cave, and continued walking forward. Qibao let it drag her. Everyone followed behind, and the white wolf led them around a large mound of earth and stopped at a flat, low area.

Qibao was simply stunned to see that there were no less than ten ginseng plants growing here. Xiaoling excitedly shouted, "Master, they are all ginseng. Each one is older than the ginseng you picked last time!"

Qibao hurried forward and found that there were still a few ginsengs that had been dug out on the ground, but they had been bitten several times. At this time, the white wolf walked forward slowly and took another bite of the dug out ginseng.

The seven treasures were so burnt on the outside by the lightning that they were tender on the inside. What a waste of natural resources! Is the reason why this white wolf is so spiritual is because of eating these ginseng?

Xiao Ling then said, "This white wolf is really picky about food. It won't eat young ginseng. I guess there are so many ginsengs here because there was originally a ginseng plant here, and then the seeds fell here, and new ginsengs grew here. Over time, this place has become a ginseng field."

Qibao thought that this must be the reason, and shouted, "Dad, brother, come and dig ginseng, there are a lot of ginseng here!"

Xu Laosan was so shocked that he came to his senses after hearing Qibao's words. His voice became hoarse with excitement and he said, "Why are you still standing there? Didn't you hear what your sister said? We're rich, we're rich!" The younger ones were immediately confused and said "oh" twice, then hurried over to help.

It took them nearly two hours to dig up all the ginseng and put them into the space. Xiao Ling said, "Master, you have twelve ginsengs in total. Four are three hundred years old, three are four hundred years old, three are five hundred years old, and two are six hundred years old. However, as long as you plant these ginsengs in the space and water them with spiritual spring water every day, I believe it won't take long for them to have the effects of thousand-year-old ginseng."

Qibao asked, "Will the space be upgraded this time?"

Xiao Ling said, "As long as the master can find more precious things or do more good deeds, he can upgrade. Once I plant them in the space, he can upgrade this time. However, if the master finds ginseng next time, he can't upgrade. The space can only be upgraded by the precious medicinal herbs that are planted on the land in the space for the first time."

Qibao smiled bitterly. If it weren't for Bailang, he wouldn't have encountered these old ginsengs. It seemed that he could only accumulate more virtue to upgrade his space.

After they had dug up all the ginseng, they returned to the White Wolf Cave. The White Wolf then signaled Qibao to put the spiritual spring water into the stone bowl. The two white wolf cubs closed their eyes and twitched their noses, following the smell as they came to the stone bowl, stretched out their cute pink tongues and began to lick the spiritual spring water in the bowl.

The mother wolf licked her lips, and seeing that her child was eating with relish, she resisted the urge to drink and sat aside to watch. Qibao put his hand into the mother wolf's mouth again, and the mother wolf tasted the spiritual spring water and immediately began to suck it up voraciously.

The female wolf didn't open her mouth until she was full, and she became closer to Qibao. Qibao touched her head, and the wolf rubbed her body against Qibao's.

Seeing that it was getting late, Qibao called out to his brothers who were still playing with the wolf cubs, "Dad, brothers, it's getting late. Let's get ready to go home, otherwise our family will be worried."

Xu Laosan said, "It's getting late, it's time to go back." After that, he put Xiaoliu into the backpack and carried it on his shoulders. The brothers looked at the white wolf and the wolf cubs reluctantly. Xiaowu said, "White Wolf, we are going home. I will miss you." After that, he touched the white wolf's head.

The white wolf looked reluctant to see Qibao and the others leave. Qibao thought for a moment and left some fruits in the space for the white wolf. The white wolf's eyes lit up again, and the female wolf tasted them with a look of enjoyment.

Qibao and the others left the cave, and the white wolf was still following them. The third brother asked, "Sister, why is the white wolf still following us?"

Qibao said, "It should be escorting us down the mountain. Many wild animals don't dare to come out with it around. Don't be fooled by its gentleness towards us. When it becomes fierce, even tigers won't easily provoke it because wolves are social animals."

The third brother asked again, "Then why didn't I see any other wolves?"

Qibao said, "I don't know. I guess the four of them have a very high status in the wolf pack, so they have a separate house." The third brother scratched his head, feeling something was wrong.

The white wolf accompanied them all the way to the outskirts before stopping. Qibao and his brothers waved goodbye to the white wolf and walked towards Xujia Village at the foot of the mountain.

It was already afternoon when the few of them got home. Seeing that they had arrived safely, the Xu family finally put their worries to rest. Wang asked, "Why did you come back just now? Don't you know that your family is worried?"

Grandpa Xu said, "Okay, it's good that you're back. Come in and have a rest and drink some water." The family came to the front hall and sat down again. Everyone in the family asked with concern, and Lin even held Qibao in her arms.

Xu Laosan told everyone what happened along the way, and a few boys also added fuel to the fire. Everyone was stunned and shocked.

Li said, "Our Qibao is so blessed. Even the wolf listens to Qibao. How can the wolf understand human speech? Could it be a wolf fairy in the mountains?"

Qibao said, "It's not as mysterious as Second Auntie said. It's just a little bit intelligent. It wanted to drink my spiritual spring water, so I exchanged it for ginseng."

Uncle Xu asked, "What about the ginseng? Let me see what a ginseng that's hundreds of years old actually looks like!"

Qibao said, "I have already placed the ginseng in my master's medicine garden. There is abundant spiritual energy there, and it will soon grow to a thousand years old!"

When Xu Erbo heard this, he exclaimed, "Wow, the thousand-year-old ginseng must have become a spirit?" Everyone was amused and confused. They also wanted to see what the thousand-year-old ginseng looked like!

Mr. Xu said, "Okay, hurry up and make dinner. Remember to keep your mouth shut and don't say a word to anyone else."

Several women got up and went to the kitchen, while Qibao instructed the brothers in their martial arts. Xu Laosan, watching from the side, felt jealous. He smacked his lips, rubbed his hands, and came to Qibao and said, "Girl, do you think I can still learn?"

Qibao looked at his father. When Xu Laosan saw his daughter looking at him, he straightened his back immediately. Qibao smiled and said, "Of course you can. You may not be as talented as your brothers, but it's good to learn some self-defense."

Xu Laosan immediately became happy and said, "Then my daughter, please give me some guidance in the future." Qibao agreed with a smile.

Seeing his daughter agree, Xu Laosan quickly lined up with the other boys and began imitating their movements. Qibao watched from the side, stifling a laugh. Her father was just a fake. How could martial arts be so simple? Just imitating a few moves was considered martial arts...

Shippo said, "Dad, if you really want to practice, you can train with your brothers every morning. Can you do that?"

Xu Lao San said firmly: "Yes!"
