Chapter 929 - Artificial Planting

Chapter 929 Artificial Planting

Xie Zhuolian finally realizes that there is a cave behind the fall.

It’s a Water Curtain Cave!

Actually, if it weren’t for the Forever Young Flower, Gao Ge wouldn’t go inside and take a look.

“Do you want to take a look?” Gao Ge asks.

Xie Zhuolian hastens to nod.

She thinks that there must be some rare herbs in the cave.

Besides...

Everyone can be curious.

Now that she has heard about this from Gao Ge, of course she must take a look.

“Okay.” Gao Ge nods and suddenly holds out his hand.

“Argh!” Xie Zhuolian subconsciously takes a step back. Yet, Gao Ge acts faster. She is held in his arms and feels the warm chest.

Xie Zhuolian’s face is tightly pressed against Gao Ge’s chest. Meanwhile, he put his arms around her slim waist. Before she cries out, Gao Ge has tapped the ground with his toes. With one bound, he dashes toward the fall.

Although Xie Zhuolian knows that Gao Ge doesn’t mean to take advantage of her, this is the first time that she has been held in a man’s arms. Of course, her dad held her when she was a kid. But that’s different!

The moment they enter the fall, the water runs heavily, which sounds as if someone threw a bomb at their ears.

“There we are,” Gao Ge says.

Xie Zhuolian finally comes to her senses. Then, she hastens to loosen her grip and take a few steps back. She can’t figure out when she placed her arms around Gao Ge’s arms.

Staring at Xie Zhuolian’s bashful and submissive face, Gao Ge feels amused and then clears his throat, trying to change the topic.

“This cave is quite huge but it is not bright enough.”

“Yeah...” Xie Zhuolian doesn’t pay attention to what Gao Ge is talking about at all. She is still pondering over what happened just now and her face just becomes hotter.

She keeps shaking her head and perishes her ridiculous thoughts. Then, she pats her face and thinks that it is dim here so Gao Ge must fail to see the flush on her face. At the thought of that, she feels better.

“There are so many Forever Young Flowers!” Xie Zhuolian said in surprise, “Besides, these flowers are of good quality. You may give these flowers to the Shao Family in exchange for quite some good things.”

“Yeah, I’ll make a deal with Shao Shuai after we get out,” Gao Ge says smilingly, “How about this? Let’s split them fifty-fifty.”

“What? No, no.” Xie Zhuolian hastens to shake her head, “This place was found by you. The first Forever Young Flower was discovered by you too. If it weren’t for your help, I couldn’t get in here.”

“I don’t need so many,” Gao Ge says, “Don’t reject this. There are other herbs in this place. Let’s hurry.”

Hearing Gao Ge says that, Xie Zhuolian doesn’t argue back.

After taking a few steps, Gao Ge suddenly stops.

With a frown, he gazes at the dark depths.

“What’s wrong?” Xie Zhuolian senses something is wrong with Gao Ge and asks, “Is there anything good else inside?”

“A rare beast. Is it good stuff?” Gao Ge asks.

Xie Zhuolian is taken aback.

“There is also a rare beast inside?”

“Yeah. Look at the cave’s mouth. Obviously, there are marks of animal activities,” Gao Ge says to Xie Zhuolian.

“Has it noticed us?”

“I don’t know. Neither can I perceive it. I’m afraid that the cave can conceal one’s Qi. So, I’m not sure whether it’s inside. Well... Maybe it has gone out to visit its relatives.”

Xie Zhuolian pulls a wry face. Gao Ge is so amazing. He just can relax the atmosphere at all times.

It seems that as long as she stays with Gao Ge, she won’t feel stressed.

No...

To stay with Gao Ge?

Gao Ge is so nice to Xie Zhuolian. She knows that she shouldn’t think this way.

In her heart, Xie Zhuolian keeps warning herself.

“Let’s act faster. If the rare beast isn’t home, let’s leave before it comes back.”

Gao Ge doesn’t think a rare beast can be so terrifying but it is surely a good thing to save some trouble.

Besides, they are unexpected visitors to the rare beast.

This cave is clearly the rare beast’s home. Gao Ge and Xie Zhuolian are... kind of trespassing?

Well, as thieves, they mean to give the cave’s owner a beating if they are discovered. Somehow, it just doesn’t make sense.

Xie Zhuolian picks the herbs very quickly. The speed has been probably acquired since she was little. Moreover, while picking the herbs, she can maintain a quick speed and also guarantee that the picked herbs won’t be damaged.

Very quickly, tens of Forever Young Flowers are all picked.

“Let’s go deeper and take a look,” Gao Ge says, “I think there are good things inside.”

Xie Zhuolian feels that Gao Ge is a bit greedy but she seems to agree with him.

Xie Zhuolian takes a few steps and suddenly feels surprised.

“Gao Ge, there is a thousand-year-old White Reishi Mushroom!”

“Take it!” Gao Ge hastens to say.

Xie Zhuolian wants to let Gao Ge have it but she thinks it is obviously not appropriate to say that at the moment. After all, they are stealing now. Well... They should divide the spoils after they leave.

As Gao Ge expected, in the cave, there are quite some herbs rare to be seen in the sea of herbs.

They’ve found a place of treasures.

They have found the White Reishi Mushroom mentioned by Xie Zhuolian, Phoenix Branch and Goldfinch Leaf after walking for a dozen meters only...

More shockingly, when they reach the depths of the cave, they find in surprise that some rare herbs are growing in clusters.

“Oh, I see!” Xie Zhuolian suddenly takes a tumble and says, “These herbs don’t grow here naturally.”

“What?”

“These herbs have a high demand for their growing environment. Besides, some of these herbs mutually reinforce and neutralize each other. So, they can never grow together. To say the least, they can’t grow together naturally. It’s like animals also have their own territories. Mice and cats can’t be neighbors...”

“What about Tom and Jerry?”

Xie Zhuolian casts a glance at Gao Ge and continues speaking, “So, these herbs are planted here by the rare beast in the cave.”

“Can the rare beast plant herbs?” Gao Ge touches his chin. If so, it should be a monster rather than a rare beast that lives here.

The rare beast is intelligent but it can’t be so smart.

The more he thinks about it, the more scared he feels.

“Hurry up. Let’s deal with this and go home early!” Gao Ge says.

Xie Zhuolian has a guilty conscience. Thinking of the possibility that the pitiful monster comes back home and finds all its herbs are stolen, she feels that... it will cry out in grief.

Although it remains unknown what the cave’s owner is, Gao Ge still wants to say,

“Wish the kind monster a safe life!”
