Chapter 323: Small Beeswax Ball

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The huge crown of the tree was like a canopy, covering an area of nearly a hundred meters. The trunk alone was as thick as five people hugging it.

A fiery red maple leaf, as red as blood, was pressing down on the ground, even reflecting a trace of blood on the herbs on the ground.

Under the tree sat a man in a white robe. His eyebrows were like his hair, hanging down and dragging on the ground.

His hair had turned completely white, and even his eyebrows and beard were mixed with his clothes. If it weren’t for the outline of his jaw, it would be difficult to tell if he was a human or a beast with long hair.

That person’s eyes were already covered by his drooping eyebrows, but his skin was still very elastic. Although MO Ruyue couldn’t hear his breathing and heartbeat, she felt that he was still alive, but he had fallen into a state of suspended animation like a turtle.

On the ground in front of him, there was a tortoise shell and a few beast bones. They seemed to be tools for divination.

MO Ruyue was attracted by the pattern of the tortoise shell bones and couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

She believed that when she came to this place, every scene she saw should

have a deep meaning, so even if she couldn’t understand the secret for the

time being, she would firmly engrave it in her mind and slowly search for the

answer in the future.

After remembering the pattern, MO Ruyue took out a bottle of homemade fruit wine and a few plates of cakes she baked herself from the space and placed them in front of the person sitting cross-legged.

She didn’t know who he was, but he must have been here alone for a long time.

Although the mortal world was noisy, it was also lively. Since they were fated, he would show his sincerity.

MO Ruyue didn’t linger around the person who was sitting cross-legged for long. After placing the wine and pastries on the table, he continued to check.

There was a small golden grass under the huge rock that the wolf king had been lying on. It looked like it had been carved out of a whole piece of gold.

There were also a few vines that looked like Boston ivy surrounding it. The colorful vines reminded her of the most important saying in survival in the wild: the brighter the color, the more poisonous it was.

It was obvious that the vine was protecting the grass. Even if the vine suddenly moved in the next second, MO Ruyue wouldn’t be surprised.

It was said that one couldn’t return empty-handed after entering a valley of treasures. Although MO Ruyue wasn’t a person who would pluck feathers from a goose when it passed, there was no reason for her to leave the treasure behind.

That golden grass was the only treasure that she could identify. There might be something even more precious and rare, but she couldnt identify it. She would just take it as if she didn’t have the fortune and that she shouldn’t take it.

However, in order to get the golden grass, she had to get through the five-colored vine first. MO Ruyue’s reaction speed was fast enough, but she didn’t want to get hit for nothing. Who knew what kind of poison she would be poisoned with?

To be safe, she went into her interspace and changed into a new set of clothes. She put on a layer of protective clothing that had excellent elasticity. The material of the clothing was specially made, and even if she used a laser knife to cut it, it would be very troublesome. So, if she was hit by the vine, it could act as a buffer.

After changing her clothes, MO Ruyue took out a jade box.

Some herbs with peculiar medicinal properties must be stored in a jade box after they were picked so that their medicinal properties would not lose their effectiveness. This time, she had also made the same preparation. After all, it was normal for magical herbs to have some special personalities.

“Alright, let’s see how I can get you.”

As MO Ruyue spoke, she had already taken out two specially made metal poles. They were used to push away the vines and at the same time, they could be used to test the situation.

She stretched the metal rod forward, and the vines that had been surrounding the golden grass moved.

“Ahaha, as expected.”

She whistled and immediately saw the vines dancing wildly, enveloping the golden grass tightly.

MO Ruyue subconsciously wanted to reach into her clothes and take out a porcelain bottle. She had just raised her hand when she put it down again.

The bottle contained a powerful weedicide, which would be effective against such vines, but it was equivalent to hitting the owner’s watchdog with a dog beating stick, which was too offensive.

In this short moment of hesitation, the two metal rods were already “scarred.” They were left with countless deep scratches by the thorns on the vines, and they were constantly making teeth-numbing scraping sounds.

This made MO Ruyue very glad that she had the foresight to change into the protective suit in advance. Even the special metal pole had been scratched to this extent. It was easy to imagine what would happen if a human body were to touch it.

Not being able to use a strong weedizer meant that she might have to get close to subdue the vines. MO Ruyue was thinking that if she used heavy metal weapons to suppress it or limit the range of movement of the vines to a minimum, it should be possible.

Just as she turned her head, she suddenly realized that the person sitting cross-legged behind her had changed his posture.

MO Ruyue remembered very clearly that his hands had been on his knees before, but now his hands were turned over with his palms facing up. There was also a small round ball in his left palm.

The small ball seemed to be made of wax, and it also emitted a strange fragrance.

She had a very strange feeling that the small ball was what she needed, a tool to subdue the vines.

“This is for me, right? Then I’ll take it.”

MO Ruyue walked forward and confirmed once again that the person sitting cross-legged still didn’t have any breathing, heartbeat, or pulse, but the change in his posture and the thing in his hand were not illusions.

Therefore, she took the small ball away after she greeted him.

That thing was indeed made of beeswax. Even though there was a layer of artificial skin as thin as cicada’s wings on his hand, MO Ruyue could still feel it.

She walked forward with the ball in her hand, and at the same time, she was on guard against the vines that might suddenly attack her. Her whole body was like a bow on a string, ready to shoot out at any time

Perhaps it was the body temperature of a human that softened the beeswax, but the fragrance emitted by the small ball became more intense. The vines that were originally waving fiercely suddenly slowed down. As MO Ruyue got closer, some of the smaller vines had already fallen to the ground.

“It’s indeed useful. This is great. It saves me a lot of trouble.”

She said with a smile. She had already stepped over the circle of vines and came to the side of the golden grass.

The next step was to use some jade tools to pick the grass. A hoe was used to loosen the soil beside it, a rake was used to remove the extra soil and stones, and finally, a shovel was used to carefully transfer the grass into the jade box.

After doing all this, mo Ruhan carried the jade box to the white-robed man’s side. Just as he was about to put the beeswax ball back into his palm, he found that his hands had returned to their original state.

“Does this mean that you’re giving this to me as well?”

MO Ruyue shook the small beeswax ball in her hand. Although she knew that no one would answer her question, she guessed that it would be like this.

Therefore, she took out a small bottle that could be sealed and put the beeswax ball in it. After doing all this, she was ready to go home..
