Ye Qiu looked in the direction pointed by the Long-browed True Man and was full of surprise.
“A hundred-year-old ginseng!”
I saw at the root of the ancient tree, there was a ginseng growing.
The branches of the ginseng were like a small tree, with dense leaves and bright red berries growing on it.
In Ye Qiu’s understanding, the branches of ginseng are generally only thirty to sixty centimeters tall, but the ginseng in front of him had branches that were more than one meter tall.
“Little bastard, I’m not wrong, right? Where the tiger crouches, there must be treasures.” The Long-browed True Man said proudly.
“This time you got lucky.” After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he was about to step forward and dig up the ginseng.
Unexpectedly, the Long-browed True Man took a step forward and blocked in front of Ye Qiu.
“Old thing, what do you want to do?” Ye Qiu asked with an unfriendly expression.
The Long-browed True Man smiled and said: “This ginseng was discovered by me. Speaking of which, it should belong to me.”
“Since you like it, then this poor Taoist will do you a favor and give it to you.”
“But little bastard, you are not allowed to rob me of that white jade coffin.”
The Long-browed True Man still had that top-quality white jade coffin on his mind.
“Cut the crap and get out of my way.”
Ye Qiu pushed the Long-browed True Man away and started digging up the ginseng.
The northeast is full of black soil. This kind of soil is soft and very convenient to dig. Even so, it still took Ye Qiu more than ten minutes to dig up the ginseng.
When the whole ginseng appeared in front of him, Ye Qiu couldn’t hide the excitement in his heart and showed ecstasy on his face.
“I didn’t expect it. It’s actually a five-hundred-year-old ginseng. This time, I really found a treasure!”
The Long-browed True Man looked at the ginseng that was thicker than Ye Qiu’s arm and felt a burst of heartache.
He had long seen that this ginseng was at least a hundred years old, but he never expected that it was actually five hundred years old.
“According to the current market price, a 500-year-old ginseng is at least over 100 million. Just giving it away like this, I’m such a fool.”
The Long-browed True Man regretted it so much that his intestines turned green, and he wished he could slap himself.
Ye Qiu put away the ginseng, looked at the depressed Long-browed True Man, and said with a smile: “Old thing, remember to let me dig when you see a treasure next time.”
It was okay if he didn’t say it, but as soon as these words came out, the Long-browed True Man’s face turned green with anger.
“Damn it, taking advantage and still being insolent, shameless.”
The Long-browed True Man cursed and continued to walk forward.
They had only walked a few dozen steps when suddenly, a shrill scream came from the forest in front.
“Squeak——”
The Long-browed True Man’s footsteps paused, and he said: “There seems to be a situation ahead.”
“Let’s go and take a look.” Ye Qiu said, and his figure disappeared in a flash.
The Long-browed True Man followed closely behind.
Soon, the two people saw the previous Siberian tiger again.
However, at this time, the Siberian tiger was biting a little monkey. The little monkey was very small in size and looked only a few months old. Facing the bite of an adult tiger, it simply couldn’t resist.
Not far away, there were also more than a dozen monkeys in a hurry, not daring to approach.
Ye Qiu was about to step forward to rescue the little monkey, but was stopped by the Long-browed True Man.
“Natural selection, the survival of the fittest. This is the eternal law of nature. Don’t interfere.” said the Long-browed True Man.
Ye Qiu said, “What law or not, I only know that if I don’t take action, that little monkey will die.”
But the Long-browed True Man said, “Little brat, you can save it once, but can you save it twice?”
“I don’t care so much. Since I’ve met it, it means its life shouldn’t end.” After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he raised his hand and shot out a sword qi.
Whoosh!
The sword qi passed by the head of the Siberian tiger.
The Siberian tiger was startled and immediately let go of the little monkey, turning its head to glare at Ye Qiu.
“What are you looking at? Get lost!”
Ye Qiu shouted in a deep voice, and his voice was like thunder.
However, as the king of the forest, the Siberian tiger seemed to be enraged by Ye Qiu.
“Roar——”
The Siberian tiger let out a roar at Ye Qiu, shaking the mountain forest.
It stared at Ye Qiu with both eyes, walking back and forth in place, and its eyes were full of thick fierce light.
“Didn’t you hear my words? If you don’t get out of here, be careful that I’m not polite to you.”
Ye Qiu raised his hand, and the sword qi crisscrossed at his fingertips.
The Siberian tiger was so scared that it made several jumps and made it into the mountain forest.
The Long-browed True Man despised and said, “After all, it’s also the king of the forest. Why is it so spineless and was scared away twice.”
“Although it’s a beast, it’s not a fool. It knows that if it doesn’t run, it will be beaten.” As Ye Qiu’s voice fell, he walked towards that little monkey.
Not far away, those dozen or so monkeys looked at Ye Qiu, making “squeaking” sounds in their mouths, with fierce expressions on their faces.
Ye Qiu could tell that this group of monkeys was worried that Ye Qiu would harm the little monkey.
“I have no ill intentions towards it. You don’t have to worry.”
Ye Qiu walked up to the little monkey and saw that the little monkey had been bitten by the tiger and was seriously injured. There were many wounds on its body bleeding.
The little monkey was very weak now, lying on the ground unable to move, looking at Ye Qiu with pitiful and fearful eyes.
“You’re lucky to have met me. Otherwise, you would have been dead for sure.”
Ye Qiu squatted down, put his palm on the top of the little monkey’s head, and sent a wisp of innate true qi into it.
Instantly, the little monkey’s spirit improved a lot, and the look in its eyes when looking at Ye Qiu was also full of gratitude.
“Don’t move. I’ll treat your wounds for you.”
Ye Qiu took out the golden needle again, stabbed a few needles on the little monkey, and then drew a few blood-stopping talismans.
About three minutes passed.
The wounds on the little monkey’s body healed.
“Your injury has healed.”
Ye Qiu took back the golden needle and stood up.
The little monkey quickly got up from the ground and then jumped a few times in place, as if feeling the injury on its body.
After a while.
Suddenly, the little monkey knelt down in front of Ye Qiu, and with its two paws clenched into fists, it cupped its hands towards Ye Qiu, as if thanking Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then said with emotion: “All things have spirits. Unexpectedly, a monkey also knows how to be grateful.”
The Long-browed True Man said: “Monkeys are one of the smartest beasts.”
Ye Qiu touched the little monkey’s head and admonished: “There are many fierce beasts in the mountain forest. You were lucky today to meet me. Next time, you may not be so lucky. Try to be more careful in the future and don’t become food for those fierce beasts.”
The little monkey seemed to understand Ye Qiu’s words and kept nodding its little head.
”Go back!” Ye Qiu waved his hand.
The little monkey reluctantly returned to the monkey group. In an instant, a group of monkeys disappeared in the mountain forest.
In the original place, only Ye Qiu and the Long-browed True Man were left.
”Old thing, how to go next?” Ye Qiu asked.
”Go forward.” As soon as the Long-browed True Man’s voice fell, a group of “squeaking” sounds rang out again in the mountain forest.
After a while, the previous group of monkeys came back again.
The little monkey was holding a bamboo tube and respectfully handed it to Ye Qiu’s.
”For me?” Ye Qiu asked.
The little monkey nodded vigorously.
Ye Qiu took the bamboo tube and found that a ball of bamboo leaves was tightly stuffed inside the bamboo tube.
Ye Qiu forcefully pulled out the bamboo leaves, and instantly, his face was filled with shock: “This is…”
