As soon as you enter the bushes, the light from the outside fades away. The bushes were too tight, and it was pitch black inside, and Qixing didn't have the tools to illuminate it, but because she was so often, she quickly got her bearings.

The bushes were damp, and the ground was covered with a layer of rotten fallen leaves, which were sticky and uncomfortable with the soft mud on the soles of their shoes.

There was silence around, which was very different from the usual - there should have been a lot of snakes, rats, insects and ants in this dark place, but now they didn't know where they were, and they couldn't hear any movement. Qixing flinched, and his pace slowed.

Even an adult man can't help but be timid in such an environment, not to mention that she has experienced a similar situation before, and she has long had a shadow in her heart.

Fortunately, Qixing often comes here, knowing that this grove is very small, and no matter what, he will not get lost.

She coughed hard. There was a strange noise not far away, but soon it fell silent again. Qixing shuddered and shrugged the package on his shoulder, paused, and then ran forward at great speed.

She ran as fast as she could, as if something was chasing after her, and she didn't even have time to remove the thorns that stood in front of her. She turned left and right a few times, and then ran forward for a while, until she reached the end of the bushes.

In front of me was a large lake, the water was so quiet that even the usual croaking of frogs was not heard. Under this gloomy sky, the calm surface of the lake seemed a little hideous, as if the next moment, a huge demon would break through the water, open its bloody mouth, and pounce on itself.

Because she had just run too fast, Qixing gasped for breath, holding her right hand on her chest, the weather was wet and cold today, but she felt a thin layer of sweat on her head.

After a while, seeing that there was no movement around, Qixing's beating heart gradually calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief. I felt a burning pain in my face, because the thorny branches had cut through the skin on my face when I ran just now, and the already old clothes had added a big cut to my shoulder.

Suddenly, a shrill hiss came from behind itself:

"Aang—"

Qixing was startled, and suddenly turned around, only to see a white object rushing towards him with a whirring aura, and smashed right into her arms!

Tianming was defenseless and stumbled by the object. It was only when she stabilized her body that she saw the object in her arms.

"It's you!" Qixing's voice trembled because he was frightened.

In front of me is a beautiful little fox.

This fox looked still underage, petite and cute, pointed ears shrugged one after another, clear blue eyes looked straight at her - those eyes were full of aura, like stars shining in the night sky!

"Why are you here, did you come with me?" Before the afterglow of the fright had passed, Qixing calmed down before he asked the little fox.

The little fox looked at her and did not respond. Qixing looked at the silent bushes behind him, and suddenly came to his senses: "No wonder it's so quiet here, it turns out that you are here!"

The little fox has been around her from time to time since Qixing rescued her from a group of children a few days ago.

In fact, it is not quite right to say that Qixing saved it, because it was the little fox who jumped into her arms by itself, and judging from the situation at that time, it was not embarrassed at all, but seemed to be deliberately playing with the group of naughty children, and its eyes were full of excitement and cunning.

Qixing rubbed the little fox's fluffy forehead, narrowed his beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "Since you came with you, why didn't you show up earlier and deliberately scare me?"

Every time she is faced with a cute little animal, she will naturally relax, a habit left over from her previous life, and it is still like this until now.

The little fox still didn't make a sound, but a mischievous smile flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth seemed to bend upward.

Even though he had seen its very anthropomorphic expression a long time ago, Qixing couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

She looked up at the bushes again, and muttered, "Where did you come from, and what is so amazing about them, that they are so afraid and obedient to you!"

Strange to say, Qixing was born with a unique talent, which is to perceive the minds of animals, but since meeting this strange little fox, Qixing has become suspicious of this talent - this talent is useless as soon as it reaches it!

She could feel that the consciousness of the creatures on this pot mountain was very ignorant, although they could clearly express their joys, sorrows, and sorrows, but their actions and emotions were only instinctual, just this little fox - its consciousness was as strong as a human being, and Qixing could only guess its intentions from its actions, and sense its emotions from its expressions!

Naturally, there are many foxes on Guoguo Mountain, but although they are a little more cunning than other animals, these cunning still only follow instinct, and none of them are as innocent and eccentric as a real child.

Qixing became interested in this little fox, wondering if it came from the depths of Tiantai Mountain, and even began to wonder if there were more such spiritual creatures in the depths of this mountain range - although this pot mountain was not big, for an ordinary teenager, it would take half a day to climb to the top of the mountain, so she had never been to the other side of the mountain.

The little fox's big clear eyes looked away. As usual, Qixing didn't read any of its thoughts, but guessed from its slightly tucked jaw that it seemed to be a little careless at the moment, or- was it weak?

Although Qixing was puzzled, he also knew that the little fox could not answer her, so he stopped talking, held it, walked a few steps along the lake, went up a dirt slope, and arrived at today's destination.

There was a half-human-tall plant on the dirt slope, which almost covered her shoulders because of the petite size of Morning Star. The plant has a long, slender pod, which is a medicinal herb called cassia. Her mother would sometimes collect the herbs and take them to the town's pharmacy to sell them for some money to support the family.

There is another medicinal herb on the side of Cassia Seed, which originally bloomed with clusters of small purple flowers, but this is late autumn, and the flowers have withered and fallen, leaving only a little purple at the top, which is parsnip.

Parsnip is not unusual, it can be found everywhere in this pot mountain, and although those cassia seeds are not as ubiquitous as parsnip, they are just ordinary medicinal herbs.

The shore of the lake is very narrow, and these medicinal herbs grow along the shore, extending four or five zhang away! And they are so long and neat that they look like someone has specially planted them.

These medicinal herbs were indeed planted by Qixing, and the reason why she planted these medicinal herbs was her younger brother, Bai Xing.
