Chapter 11: Gathering Herbs Once More

Lin Xiao spent the rest of the morning to practice with Wenren Yu. As they trained, he came to realize that the reason why Wenren Yu didn’t have high cultivation stage was because he loved to spend his time reading medicinal books and tend to the plants in the garden.

Nevertheless, he had good talent, which allowed him to reach rank 6 before reaching 20 years old.

That was the lowest limitation for one to join Taiyi Sect. If they reached rank 6 when they were already above 20 years old, their potential would have already diminished. They didn’t have much worth anymore for the sect.

Of course, there were always exception such as children reaching body training faster and so on.

"I’m going to gather some herbs again. Is there any other herbs that you want me to search?"

"Can you memorize everything I tell you?" Wenren Yu asked.

"Uh, I think?"

In the next second, Wenren Yu began to spew out more than 100 herbs that he wanted Lin Xiao to find. Most of them were commons, so Lin Xiao knew that Wenren Yu was only targeting herbs that he might find.

"You’re going early this time?" Lin Yun asked in surprise. It was still afternoon and the sun was still high up in the sky. There were still a lot of time before the usual time for Lin Xiao to gather the herbs.

Wiping his sweat, Lin Xiao glanced at the sky. He grinned. "I plan to try climbing higher this time. There might be some previous herbs if I managed to get high enough."

"Be careful, Bro." Lin Yun furrowed his brows. His parents always reminded him to be careful of the higher place when gathering herbs because it was very dangerous. The higher they were, the more dangerous it would be. But at the same time, there would be much more valuable herbs too.

Lin Xiao fixed his clothes and grabbed the medicinal basket. He carried it on his back and smiled. "There’s no need to worry, I can take care of myself."

"If you end up dying, don’t come back home crying."

"I’ll bring you a valuable herb to help you recover!"

Lin Yun shook his head when he saw his brother departed. Glancing at Wenren Yu, who had chosen to rest again, he tilted his head. "You’re wounded quite deeply yet still trained with my brother. Are you wounds alright?"

"Your brother didn’t ask me to train that much." Wenren Yu laughed. He was only told to instruct Lin Xiao in Mountain’s Punch because Lin Xiao kept on having the wrong stance. It was quite fun in his opinion too since it has been such a long time from the time he last learning.

This helped him refreshed his memory of the training again.

"You should rest. I’m going to train."

"You shouldn’t pressure yourself too."

"Heh, Brother is working hard for me, so of course, I want to be able to do something for him too. He’s the only family members I have left," Lin Yun said with a laugh and walked inside.

Wenren Yu watched the younger brother and shook his head a bit. Having a warm family was always so enviable as there were many people who didn’t have harmonious family. With the world only cared for the strong and try to gain connection with marriage, it was not weird that there were a lot of loveless marriage to tie each other.

Swish!

Back in the forest, Lin Xiao reached the mountain again. He chose a different spot to start climbing with his small sword ready in his hand. It was a very convenient weapon because swinging a sword in a narrow place like this would make him lose balance.

"Oh, there’s the Dew Grass here!"

"I’m lucky enough to find more over here."

Talking to himself, Lin Xiao plucked the herbs and put it onto the medicinal bag on his back. It seemed that this path he picked was not that bad because there were more valuable herbs that he could gather.

"This is the last place I went to last time."

The marking on the rocks were familiar to Lin Xiao. He would always marked the area that he first came and also the highest location to remind him that it was the safest area that he could reach before.

’Let’s try to climb higher.’

Reaching up, Lin Xiao continued to climb higher. As he crossed a slightly poking rock, he noticed that there was a beautiful fiery red flower on top of the dirt and rock before him. His eyes were locked onto the flower for a few moments as he didn’t dare to get close without having any preparation.

The grasses around the flower had wilted.

It meant that there might be something dangerous about the flower.

’How about if just pick it along with the dirt around it?’

Twisting the small sword in his hand, Lin Xiao stabbed it on the ground and started to make a circling movement on the dirt. His eyes were looking at the flower carefully in fear that he might make a mistake.

The dirt was mixed with rock and felt hard to cut. However, Lin Xiao proceeded and try to be careful. As he slowly managed to dug up the earth, he reached his hand and grabbed the earth.

’It’s hot!’

The flower felt extremely hot to touch. Lin Xiao now didn’t dare to put the flower into the medicinal bag that he carried with him. Slowly, he clutched it in his left hand and slowly descended from the mountain.

With this flower, he wouldn’t be able to get anything else anymore.

It would be better to go down.

But going down the steep mountain with only one hand was proven to be a very difficult task. Just as Lin Xiao stepped down, his legs slipped.

Swish!
