"Well... we discovered the Thirteen-Leaf Xuncao together. Besides, without you and Brother Agou, I wouldn't even be able to enter this cave. So, we should all decide on this 'excellent Xuncao' together." 'Use or distribution." Shang Tianlin blinked when she said this, and she asked Guan Heng: "Are you right?"
"It's up to you to decide. Anyway, Agou and I have no objections." Guan Heng said with a smile: "We just need to get the due remuneration."
"Hmm... Well, I will keep this thirteen-leaf grass for now. I will find an opportunity to sell it when the time comes, and everyone will share the goods equally." Shang Tianlin said, reaching out and picking it off the back of her hand. He took out two of the three thick bamboo tubes and handed them to Guan Heng and Agou: "Hurry up and dig out the other nine-leaf grass and put them in."
"Besides, I'll take it away myself." Shang Tianlin gently dug out the thirteen-leaf grass with a hoe and put it into a bamboo tube filled with clear mountain spring.
Because things like grass will wither very quickly once they are separated from the moisture of the soil, so people soak them in mountain springs to keep them fresh. In this way, the grass will not rot for several months.
In the end, Guan Heng and Ah Gou packed up more than twenty pillars of nine-leaf grass, far exceeding the quantity required by the five merchants. At this time, Shang Tianlin left the cave with the two of them.
When going down the mountain, Shang Tianlin took out a Xuncao plant, mashed the leaves and roots, applied it to Guan Heng's wound, and then asked him to swallow the fruit. After a while, Guan Heng's wound miraculously healed.
"Not bad, not bad. The effect of this grass on treating trauma is really good." Guan Heng praised casually. In fact, if he absorbed the aura of the soul fragments, he could also heal the wounds, but in his eagerness, he could not find the spirits of those monsters. , so it is the same with Xuncao treatment.
While Shang Tianlin was treating her injuries, Guan Heng took the time to make a simple rattan basket using the old vines on the mountain wall, and put the child in Agou's hands into it.
Guan Heng said at this time: "Just like Tian Lin said, we can only take this little baby back to Qingshui Village first, because there is no village nearby, so we can't leave him alone in the mountains."
Having said this, Guan Heng stood up and stretched his legs: "Well, my injury is almost healed. Let's spend the night on the mountain and return to Qingshui Village tomorrow."
"Okay, I have dry food and dried meat here. Let's eat some." Shang Tianlin said, taking out the food she brought and giving it to Guan Heng and Agou. The latter immediately started chewing, while Guan Heng ate After a few mouthfuls, he suddenly put down the dry food. He looked at the little boy in the rattan basket in front of him and thought to himself: "Oh, I wonder how Qinghuang is doing at Master Yan's house..."
There was no talk all night, and in the early morning of the next day, the three people took the little boy with them, riding tigers and horses all the way in the dust. It didn't take long to reach the place where the group of strong men who had previously trapped Shang Tianlin and Guan Heng were trapped. canyon.
"Look, those guys really spent a day and night digging through the pile of rocks and crawling out." At this moment, Shang Tianlin smiled and pointed forward: "Well, they are all lying on the roadside like dead people. Woolen cloth."
"Haha, these guys asked for it. I'm very grateful that I didn't kill them." Guan Heng slapped the ghost-swallowing tiger on the back: "He rushed over and asked them to taste the 'Loess Big Food'" meal'."
"Ouch -" the Ghost Swallowing Tiger roared and rushed past, deliberately running so high that the dust was everywhere. The smoke and dust it aroused covered the group of scoundrels, as if it had buried them alive.
"Hahaha, you deserve it." When Shang Tianlin rode a red horse and passed by the group of people with Agou, she was amused and laughed heartily. The group did not stop here at all, only for a while By the time he arrived, he had returned to the streets of Qingshui Village.
"Tian Lin, you first take Xuncao to find five merchants. After you get the reward, come to Master Yan's foundry to find us." Guan Heng paused for a moment after saying this, and then he continued: "Let's put the child we picked up first."
"Okay, I'm going." Shang Tianlin turned the horse's head at this time and went straight to the residence of the merchants. Guan Hengze said to Agou: "Let's go back too. I guess the leather armor has been sewn by now." It’s ready.”
In this way, the two of them crossed the street and returned to the Yan family's foundry. They saw Yan Lu'er coming out to splash water. The other party immediately shouted with a smile: "Brother Guan Heng, Brother Agou, you are back."
After Guan Heng jumped off the ghost-eating tiger, he asked, "Lu'er, where is your father?"
"Oh, your leather armor will be finished soon. Daddy is preparing the final process." Yan Luer said with a smile: "Come in quickly... Huh? What's in that rattan basket?"
At this time, Yan Luer was surprised to find the little boy in the rattan basket. She lost her voice and said, "Why is it a doll?"
"Let's go, I'll tell you the details after we enter the house." Guan Heng said, and walked into the room with Yan Lu'er and A Gou. He told the story of picking up the child in detail, and Yan Lu'er immediately listened. Stunned, she muttered: "What about this child's family?"
"Not sure." Guan Heng slowly shook his head and said, "I guess he is no longer here. Alas, I still don't know how to place this child in the future." "Oh, so that's it..." After listening to Guan Heng's words, Yan Luer lowered his head and said nothing, thinking deeply.
At this moment, everyone walked into the room and saw Old Man Yan making the final touches on the leather armor. After Master Yan saw Guan Heng and others coming in, he immediately put down what he was doing and asked, "How is this? Did the trip go well?"
"Well, it went smoothly, and I also brought back a 'surprise'." After Guan Heng said this, he handed the child to Yan Lu'er, and said impatiently: "Well, I'll go see Qing Huang first. , Lu'er, tell Master Yan what I said."
At this time, Agou stretched and said, "Well - I'm so sleepy. I'm going back to the guest room to go to bed."
After the two of them finished speaking, they went back to their rooms to rest. Master Yan was left in a daze, and could only listen to his daughter's story with a wry smile.
At the same time, Shang Tianlin brought the nine-leaf grass in two bamboo tubes to the residence of the merchants. Since neither she nor Guan Heng planned to hand over the most precious "thirteen-leaf grass" to the merchants, they Shang Tianlin temporarily placed a top-quality Xuncao plant at Guan Heng's place.
At this time, Shang Tianlin walked into the door and suddenly found that the few attendants who usually guarded the door were not where they were. She couldn't help but murmured in her heart: "It's weird. They usually talk and laugh loudly. Why is it so loud today?" It’s deserted, do you think everyone is going out to come and go?”
Thinking of this, Shang Tianlin shouted: "Uncle Wan, are you there? I'm here."
