Lin Ling'er knew that even though she was poisoned, she was still part of the family, so surely the family would support her.

So, if the herbs here aren't enough, it would be possible to get some from the family!

Hearing Lin Ling'er's concerned inquiry, Hu Xiaobei smiled.

Soon, Hu Xiaobei spoke candidly, "Don't worry, the herbs I have here are more than sufficient, and if even they fall short, it's unlikely your family could find suitable herbs either!"

"Xiaobei, what do you mean by that? Underestimating us? Our family's treasury truly has an abundance of herbs!"

"Haha, you'll soon find out what I mean!"

After leaving them in suspense, Hu Xiaobei sped up once again...

Soon, Hu Xiaobei pushed open the gate to the orchard.

Following behind Hu Xiaobei, Lin Ling'er gazed at the absolutely sturdy fruit trees, feeling unconsciously amazed!

"This place... this really is a Paradise on earth!"

After such a heartfelt compliment, she looked at Hu Xiaobei, and at that moment, she noticed that Hu Xiaobei continued walking forward...

Taking a deep breath, Lin Ling'er quickly followed.

Very soon, Lin Ling'er looked around at the fruit trees with some confusion!

From the beginning, Lin Ling'er noticed that the positions where the trees were planted were very particular!

At first glance, there didn't seem to be any problem, but upon closer inspection, one would find their positions were related...

"What's going on here?"

Muttering this, she continued to observe carefully!

Soon, she realized these fruit trees seemed to form an array...

Thinking this way, she continued to observe intently, and soon discovered indeed, this was an absolutely complex Eight Trigrams Array!

"Xiaobei, was this Eight Trigrams Array set up by you earlier?"

Hearing such a curious inquiry, Hu Xiaobei gently nodded.

"That's right, I set this up earlier, I didn't expect you could actually see it!"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's slightly surprised words, she said, "Of course I could see it! I was already aware of the array's existence earlier!"

At this point, Lin Ling'er took a deep breath...

Soon, she turned the topic back to the array itself...

At that moment, she directly said, "This array has no flaws at all! Xiaobei, how can you be so knowledgeable about everything?"

By the end, she was truly astonished!

At this moment, she was utterly amazed by Hu Xiaobei...

Previously, she was aware of the existence of arrays!

However, she had not seriously studied arrays.

The reason for this was that she knew arrays were exceedingly difficult!

There were many experts in arrays within the family who had been studying for decades...

But even so, they were still lacking in the art of setting up arrays!

Really!

Their arrays weren't even as good as the one Hu Xiaobei had set up now!

Sensing her amazement and shock, Hu Xiaobei jokingly said, "There's no helping it, I'm just an absolute genius, I learn things as soon as I see them!"

At this time, Hu Xiaobei was actually lying...

The reason he could set up arrays was because of the knowledge about arrays in his mind.

Lin Ling'er didn't know about Hu Xiaobei receiving the Shennong's inheritance, so when she heard him say this, she believed he was telling the truth!

Taking a deep breath, she looked intently at Hu Xiaobei!

At this moment, she really started deliberating in her heart.

Previously, Hu Xiaobei had said he could be her boyfriend and go back to the family with her.

At that time, Lin Ling'er had actually refused, because she thought Hu Xiaobei was just a commoner, so she didn't want to drag him into trouble...

Now, after learning about Hu Xiaobei's abilities, she began to consider the feasibility of this plan...

Hu Xiaobei didn't know what she was thinking!

So, seeing her lost in thought, he asked curiously, "Sister, what's up with you? Why is your face getting redder and redder?"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's curious inquiry like this, she was slightly stunned!

Soon, she shyly whispered, "Nothing! I just... just said whatever, let's... let's keep moving forward!"

"Alright!"

After agreeing, Hu Xiaobei continued to walk forward!

After taking a deep breath, Lin Ling'er also continued to follow Hu Xiaobei.

Very soon, she smelled the aroma of herbs wafting in the air!

"It seems, not far ahead should be Hu Xiaobei's medicinal garden! The garden is built here, so it probably isn't very large!"

While making such a judgment, Lin Ling'er heard Hu Xiaobei speak softly.

"Sister, just ahead is my medicinal garden, at that time, don't be too surprised!"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's reminder, Lin Ling'er waved her hand confidently, "Rest assured! I definitely won't be surprised!"

The time spent with Hu Xiaobei in Xiaohe Village was not long, yet even so, she had truly been amazed numerous times before.

In her view, no matter what, she couldn't possibly be surprised again this time.

Hearing Lin Ling'er confidently speak, Hu Xiaobei squinted, "Sometimes being too confident isn't right, sister."

After saying this, Hu Xiaobei took the lead around the corner.

Lin Ling'er smiled and quickly followed.

A minute later, she stared blankly ahead, full of astonishment.

This astonishment came because the medicinal garden was not quite what she imagined...

The size of this medicinal garden was indeed not large...

It seemed to be about the size of a basketball court at best.

At present, a clear little stream meandered gently through the not-too-large medicinal garden.

Beside the stream was a modest wooden cabin.

Next to the cabin was a wooden rack, on which many herbs were drying!

These dried herbs looked quite old, which surprised her slightly...

But what truly shocked her was not these dried herbs, but the herbs growing in the field.

Taking a deep breath, she looked at Hu Xiaobei and said sheepishly, "Xiaobei... pinch me... pinch me!"

Upon hearing this soft urging, Hu Xiaobei walked to her side!

Then, Hu Xiaobei smiled and said, "Sister, I know what you mean! Let me tell you straightforwardly, none of this is a dream! It's all real!"

Hearing such a firm response, she softly said, "But... I feel like it's not real, you better pinch me so I can confirm it's real!"

"Alright then!"

Hu Xiaobei gave a wry smile, and soon, he reached out and gently pinched her cheek...

At that moment, Hu Xiaobei couldn't bear to apply force, yet Lin Ling'er still felt a faint pain...

Instantly, she realized everything before her was real!

This was no dream!

Overwhelmed with excitement, Lin Ling'er took a deep breath, and then quickly moved a couple of steps forward!

She quickly squatted down!

Then, looking at vines that resembled tendrils, she said excitedly, "This... this is Polygonum multiflorum, and it's over a hundred years old!"

Previously, she had seen Polygonum multiflorum!

But she hadn't seen one that was over a hundred years old!

So now, her excitement was uncontainable...

Upon hearing her speak with such astonishment, Hu Xiaobei was slightly surprised...

In the next moment, he looked at Lin Ling'er, realizing she hadn't lied about her previous familiarity with herbs, otherwise, she wouldn't have accurately determined the agedness of this Polygonum multiflorum now!

Lin Ling'er was unaware of Hu Xiaobei's surprise, as she, after her initial shock, shifted her gaze to the Lingzhi next to the Polygonum multiflorum...

After looking for some time, she raised her head and asked Hu Xiaobei in amazement, "Is this... is this Lingzhi real?"

Upon hearing this amazed inquiry, Hu Xiaobei squinted slightly and then curiously asked, "Why ask like that? Does it not look real?"

Hearing Hu Xiaobei's light teasing, she replied, "It seems real, but I can't believe it's real, as it's over two hundred years old!"

By the time she finished speaking, Lin Ling'er was truly stunned...

At this moment, her mind was utterly blank...

The reason was that previously, the oldest herbs she had seen were no more than thirty years old...

"To be exact, its age is two hundred thirty-six years!"

Laughing lightly, Hu Xiaobei glanced at it...

"You... tell me, what's going on with these herbs? How could they possibly be so old?"

Upon hearing such a shocking question, Hu Xiaobei curiously retorted, "Isn't your statement a bit incorrect? Why can't they be this old?"
