Chapter 1890 - 1885: Such a Keen Nose
Quietly, Xiaobei coughed softly.
The dirt-covered Hei and Xiaobai heard someone cough and quickly looked up.
"Master!"
Seeing that the one who coughed was Xiaobei, they quickly spoke respectfully.
Feeling their respect, Xiaobei nodded lightly and asked nonchalantly, "Hmm, why are only you two here? Where’s that Kenghuo?"
Hearing Xiaobei mention that Kenghuo, they ground their teeth in anger!
"He tricked us before, leaving everything to us, so he’s probably sunbathing somewhere now."
"Exactly!"
As they complained, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit lazily sunbathing far away in a hollow sneezed twice violently.
"Oh dear, why am I sneezing all the time lately? Is my resistance really that weak? Looks like I need to pay attention!"
Muttering to himself, he quickly took out a piece of Hundred-year ginseng and took another bite.
After gnawing on it, he continued to enjoy the sun, thinking that his weak resistance was because he hadn’t been getting enough sun lately, so now he needed to sunbathe more and replenish...
Knowing they were really upset, Xiaobei laughed and consoled them, "When I find that Kenghuo later on, I’ll avenge you properly. For now, keep up the good work; I have to go down for a bit."
"Okay, take care, Master!"
"Hmm!"
After agreeing softly, Xiaobei quickly left...
"We’ve been praised by the Master! Looks like we need to keep working hard!"
"Yes, indeed!"
Nodding excitedly, they continued to work energetically.
At this moment, they were really as excited as if they’d been injected with adrenaline...
...
Xiaobei wasn’t aware of their thoughts; he had returned to the Forbidden Land shrouded in white mist again!
The first time Xiaobei appeared here, his expression was solemn!
Now, Xiaobei was much better...
Because Xiaobei knew this place didn’t pose much danger to him.
Quickly passing through the layers of white mist, Xiaobei arrived again at this absolutely desolate desert.
After glancing around quickly and determining the direction, Xiaobei sped off in the eight o’clock direction.
Previously, Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao had told Xiaobei there was a Medicinal Garden here and also its exact location.
That was where Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao used to live.
The Medicinal Garden didn’t have many herbs, but they were all very old, so, if taken outside, they would all be priceless treasures.
"It should be just ahead!"
A dozen minutes later, Xiaobei’s eyes lit up, and he softly muttered to himself.
The reason was that he smelled a faint medicinal fragrance wafting through the air at this moment.
Both Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao were very diligent in protecting the Medicinal Garden, so only when one gets very close can the scent of this medicinal fragrance be smelled.
Moreover, the medicinal fragrance was not very strong...
...
Passing through the layers of white mist in front, Xiaobei heard the sound of babbling water.
Xiaobei knew this place definitely wasn’t a desert...
"As expected!"
Walking a few more steps forward, Xiaobei’s eyes completely lit up.
This place wasn’t big, but it definitely counted as a Paradise, a Desert Oasis.
A clear spring in the center of this small oasis was constantly gushing out clear spring water.
The absolutely clear spring water, after gushing out, silently nourished this small Desert Oasis, making it appear lush and green.
The closer to the water, the better, so Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao put the most effort into this place.
Not only did they plant many medicinal herbs, but they also cultivated some particularly beautiful green plants.
"Amazing, the herbs here, at the very least, are over three hundred years old!"
After approaching and taking a careful look, Xiaobei couldn’t help but silently praise...
Previously, without getting close, Xiaobei had guessed the age of these herbs was astonishing...
Now, having seen it with his own eyes, Xiaobei couldn’t help but exclaim out loud.
"Wait, I’m not here for sightseeing!"
Two minutes later, Xiaobei murmured softly...
He finally remembered he had serious business to attend to here...
After taking a deep breath, Xiaobei started thinking about the herbs they asked him to find...
Familiar with medicinal herbs, Xiaobei easily found the various needed herbs.
After gathering them, Xiaobei stored them away and quickly left.
...
"Such a fragrant smell, is it the smell of herbs?"
Xiaobei didn’t intentionally cover up the scent of herbs, so when he left, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit, who was originally lying quietly sunbathing, suddenly had his red eyes wide open as if struck by lightning.
"But it shouldn’t be, there shouldn’t be any herbs around here that I don’t know about!"
Muttering silently, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit stood up.
He was ready to see what was going on...
Following the scent of herbs, he quickly appeared near the edge of the cliff.
Upon arriving there, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit heard the sound of carving, knowing that Hei and Xiaobai obviously weren’t slacking off.
"Now that’s my right-hand men!"
He complimented happily, and the Treasure-hunting Rabbit quickly rushed over to them, continuing to search for the mesmerizing aroma of herbs...
Very soon, he confirmed the entrancing herbal scent was coming from the previous Forbidden Land.
"It shouldn’t be, wasn’t that place already searched thoroughly?"
Muttering thus, he appeared above Hei’s head...
After attracting Hei and Xiaobai’s attention, he quickly, with curiosity, asked, "Earlier, did anyone pass through here?"
The Treasure-hunting Rabbit felt that for herbal fragrances to come from the Forbidden Land, someone must have gone over there...
So he quickly voiced his curiosity...
"The Master just went over there earlier!"
"Yes!"
They didn’t know why the Treasure-hunting Rabbit was asking, but they still quickly responded...
After all, it wasn’t anything that needed to be kept secret.
"I knew it!"
Hearing their answer, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit confirmed his guess...
At this time, he felt the herbal scent getting stronger; he knew if his judgment was correct, Xiaobei would come out soon...
Thinking this, he quickly turned his head, staring intently at the unmoving white mist nearby...
Seeing the Treasure-hunting Rabbit staring at that spot, they also curiously turned their heads, and soon, they heard the sound of footsteps; they knew it must be the Master returning...
"This one has great hearing!"
Thinking about how the Treasure-hunting Rabbit turned his head towards the mist so early, they thought the Treasure-hunting Rabbit must have heard something...
Actually, they were overthinking it.
The Treasure-hunting Rabbit didn’t hear anything; rather, he smelled the delicate herbal aroma...
