Chapter 34 Magical Grass, Advanced Abilities
As we go up the mountain, the surface of the river suddenly becomes much narrower, and there is even a long undercurrent.
Su Heng used his special ability to cover the surrounding grass and trees, sensed the concentration of water vapor underground, and followed it all the way upstream.
This road is relatively hidden and not often used by villagers. The low bushes and grass hindered Su Heng's speed.
She was not in a hurry, but she had almost picked all the herbs on the previous road, so she wanted to change direction today to see if there was any new harvest.
As they walked further along the undercurrent, they were about to enter the deep mountains, and Su Heng stopped.
Her supernatural powers have not yet fully recovered, and if she encounters a ferocious beast, she probably won't be able to escape unscathed.
Just as she was about to give up, she suddenly heard the faint sound of water ahead.
Su Heng's eyes lit up, and as he passed through the dense forest, the rumbling sound of water became clear in an instant.
There was a high waterfall in front of us, and a deep stone pool was gathered below. The undercurrent should be flowing out from the bottom of the stone pool.
This was obviously not the source, but Su Heng was not discouraged. On the contrary, she was delighted.
This small pond is surrounded by rich wood energy!
Su Heng closed his eyes and released his special abilities to trace the source of the rich wood essence.
The surrounding trees emitted a faint gray light in the darkness, which was an energy with many impurities.
And among these gray dots, the pure and dazzling green light by the pond stands proudly alone.
Found it!
Su Heng opened his eyes and went towards the place he had just locked onto, and saw an inconspicuous little grass growing by the pond.
It has seven slender green leaves, a bunch of purple flowers on top, and a few small red fruits underneath.
The person looked quite good, but Su Heng didn't recognize him. She moved closer and was about to take a closer look.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew.
Su Heng's hair stood on end. At the critical moment, she reacted quickly and used her special powers. The vines beside her instantly wrapped around the creature that attacked her.
It turned out to be a snake, emerald green all over, hiding in the bamboo forest nearby, and she didn't notice it.
Snakes are not creatures that will actively attack humans unless they are protecting their food.
With a guardian beast, it seems that this inconspicuous grass is indeed a good thing.
The snake was still spitting out its tongue at Su Heng, and its emerald green eyes looked a little strange in the deep mountains.
Su Heng was a little afraid of this cold-blooded animal, so without hesitation, she waved her hand and the vines strangled the snake mercilessly with a force that was inconsistent with their own hardness.
After solving the problem, Su Heng did not let down his guard, having learned from the previous experience.
She walked over to the herb and sat cross-legged in meditation, as if she could smell the pure energy coming from these small red fruits.
Su Heng smiled, then picked one and ate it without hesitation.
The sweet and sour juice with rich wood energy flowed into her body like a warm current, and she concentrated on absorbing it.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Heng felt that the bottleneck that had stuck her had finally loosened.
The energy that had been accumulated for a long time broke through the barrier, and the supernatural power in the tendons and veins suddenly became stronger, reaching level three!
Su Heng breathed a sigh of relief, opened her eyes and couldn't help but curl her pupils. She condensed a few drops of water in her hands and dropped them on the grass in front of her.
These few drops of water are super concentrated vital nutrients and are a great tonic for plants.
It seemed like there was a breeze blowing, and the herb swayed, then stopped moving.
There were still two small red fruits left on this grass. Su Heng did not continue to pick them, but silently took out the small shovel he used to pick herbs.
Whisper to the grass demon: "Come home with me! I will give you delicious food like that every day from now on."
The guardian beast had been killed by her. If she didn't dig it up, any wild rabbit would be eaten by it, which would be a pity.
The grass had no way to refuse, so Su Heng had to eat it and take it away, and it was packed into the basket along with the soil where it grew.
Su Heng injected some more supernatural powers into it to keep it alive, and looked at the dead snake not far away.
Although he felt disgusted, he thought that the snake gall could be sold for money, so he picked it up with a branch and threw it into the basket.
Today's unexpected gain was huge. Su Heng looked at the high-hanging waterfall. It was not easy to climb over it. He would explore it later.
Just as he was about to go home, he caught a glimpse of the sound of water flowing in the pond and a silver fish jumped out of the water. It was a silver fish as big as a palm.
In the crystal clear stone pond, fish with black backs and white scales that I had not noticed just now were swimming leisurely in the water, just as described in the text.
There were perhaps a hundred fish in the pond, all swimming in the air as if without support. In the clear sunlight, their shadows were cast on the rocks, motionless; then suddenly they would dive off into the distance, coming and going swiftly, as if enjoying themselves with the visitors.
Having heard that this kind of fish is the freshest and most tender, Su Heng stopped silently.
If it was before, she could only watch, after all, she couldn't swim, but now, with the upgrade of her superpowers, she can control more plants.
Su Heng broke off a few tough thorny vines and inserted them on the edge of the stone pond, then injected his supernatural powers into them.
The vines grew and branched instantly, and under her manipulation, they flexibly thorned the fish in the water.
The fish here have never seen humans and are very stupid. They only started struggling violently after being forked, but they were quickly rolled ashore by the vines.
Several vines started working at the same time, and the pool suddenly became lively.
But the stone pond was clear, the bottom was covered with rocks, and the water was not turbid. The fish that were fleeing everywhere were still ruthlessly harpooned and brought ashore one after another.
Fish with white bellies were struggling on the rocks on the shore. Su Heng stopped when she saw that it was almost done. The vines on the shore collapsed instantly without the support of their supernatural powers.
The fish in the pond finally learned their lesson and hid in the cracks of the rocks under the waterfall.
Su Heng broke off some large leaves and put them in the basket, then returned home with a full load of plump silverfish.
She came back a little late today, it was already past noon, and Lu Mingchuan had cooked dinner and was waiting for her.
"Lu Mingchuan, look what good stuff I got!"
"What is it?" Lu Mingchuan came out of the kitchen and took her heavy basket.
Su Heng rushed to the pool to wash her face because of the heat. The icy well water splashed on her face, and the heat instantly subsided a little.
"There are fish. I found a small pond full of fish. Look, these fish are fat and must be delicious."
Su Heng went over and lifted the covering leaves, revealing a box full of small silver fish.
Seeing the surprise in Lu Mingchuan's eyes, he couldn't help but feel proud.
"Great, we caught so many." He praised with a smile.
Su Heng: "That's it."
Lu Mingchuan scooped the fish into another small winnowing basket to wash it when he saw a bean-sized wound on the fish's belly.
"I didn't expect you could spear fish."
Su Heng paused, then quickly made an excuse: "The pool was shallow and small, so I just used a branch to dig it out. It was just luck."
"Really?"
Lu Mingchuan smiled faintly and didn't ask any more questions, pretending to be blind.
How could such a thin branch pierce the belly of a fish? This stupid fox doesn't even know how to find a better excuse.
