Chapter 436 Sentinel to the World: The Delicate and Useless Guide VS The Cunning and Super-Powerful
Once Su Jinyue understood what was going to happen, she went to find Xie Linchuan.
She wanted to know the current state of Xie Linchuan's mental state, and whether there were any signs of mental pollution spreading.
Now that Xie Linchuan is awake, it's inconvenient for Su Jinyue to directly enter his mental sea to check on him.
"The spiritual body is now fine, but there is still one-third of the spiritual pollution in the spiritual sea. However, there is no sign of it spreading, and it can be controlled for now."
Hearing Xie Linchuan's answer, Su Jinyue felt relieved.
"This is a good thing, it means my treatment is effective."
But I was completely drained of my energy last night, and it will take a few days to recover.
I can't continue your treatment for the next few days. If you experience any unusual symptoms, please let me know immediately.
Also, I have some new ideas about your mental pollution, but I don't have enough medicinal herbs on hand right now, so I need to go to the mountains to collect some more.
Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, so why don't you stay here, I...
"I'm fine now, I'll go with you."
Xie Linchuan interrupted Su Jinyue directly. How could a sentry like him need a guide to protect him?
Moreover, if people knew that he sent a frail guide to the mountains alone to collect herbs in order to treat his illness, how could he have the face to live in this world?
Su Jinyue was a little worried: "You're going too? But your injuries haven't healed yet..."
Xie Linchuan explained, "The wound is mostly healed now. If you're still worried, you can have it checked again."
Although it was not as convenient for Xie Linchuan when he was awake as it was when he was unconscious, Su Jinyue still insisted on checking Xie Linchuan's wounds.
The sentry's physical condition was probably very strong; his wounds had healed in just a few days. As long as he didn't engage in strenuous exercise, it wouldn't cause any problems.
Su Jinyue had nothing to say and could only agree to let Xie Linchuan accompany her.
Moreover, Xie Linchuan's presence has another advantage: the two of them together are safer than Su Jinyue alone. They can spend the night on the mountain without having to travel up and down, which would waste time.
Without further ado, the two packed up the capsule room and other odds and ends, and were ready to set off.
Before long, the two arrived at the foot of the mountain. Xie Linchuan filled a lot of water by the stream and put it into his spatial storage.
If you spend the night on the mountain and can't find a water source, at least you can manage.
Su Jinyue changed direction and went up the mountain. She had already collected most of the medicinal herbs along the previous route, so changing direction might bring new gains.
With Xie Linchuan's company, Su Jinyue found that she could focus more on finding and collecting medicinal herbs, and thus gained more.
When Su Jinyue was collecting herbs, Xie Linchuan was responsible for keeping watch nearby. Sometimes he would leave for a while, and when he came back, he would have one or two pheasants, rabbits or other prey in his hands.
Sometimes, they would encounter social animals. The two of them would avoid the dangerous ones, while Xie Linchuan and his spirit form, the white tiger, could act as two people and take on many of the less dangerous ones.
Su Jinyue also collects medicinal materials from certain animals, such as deer antler, musk, and five-spice powder. She collects them whenever she comes across them, just in case.
When night fell, Xie Linchuan found a suitable campsite, released the capsule room, and the two of them started a fire, plucking the fur and skinning the prey.
The mountain is rich in resources. The little bit that Su Jinyue picked was enough for two people to eat. Not to mention, Su Jinyue's collecting habit kicked in, and she put a lot more into her spatial ring.
During the day, while Su Jinyue was collecting, Xie Linchuan was also busy. Besides hunting, he would sometimes listen to Su Jinyue's explanations and then help her collect the materials.
As for cooking, that's Su Jinyue's job; Xie Linchuan can't cook delicious food.
However, apart from cooking, starting a fire, carrying firewood, and washing dishes, all of these were Xie Linchuan's jobs.
That day, Su Jinyue discovered a cluster of medicinal herbs on a cliff face. She was overjoyed, for by collecting these herbs, she had gathered all the ingredients needed to refine the Nourishing Spirit Pill.
However, the cliff was too steep, and despite taking sufficient safety precautions, Xie Linchuan did not agree to let Su Jinyue go down.
Helpless, Su Jinyue had no choice but to let Xie Linchuan help her gather herbs. The clump of herbs was located a dozen meters down the cliff, and Xie Linchuan approached it easily.
But just as Xie Linchuan was about to pick them, a white snake, half a meter long and as thick as a thumb, suddenly darted out from beside the clump of herbs. It was hidden on the cliff face, almost the same color as the rocks, and Xie Linchuan didn't notice it at all.
"Be careful!" Su Jinyue had been watching Xie Linchuan's situation closely from above, and seeing this scene, her heart jumped into her throat!
Fortunately, Xie Linchuan reacted quickly. He pushed off with his foot, turned to the side, and drew a dagger from his waist, swiftly and accurately severing the snake in two.
Su Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the danger had passed.
After killing the snake, Xie Linchuan carefully checked the area again. Only after confirming there was no danger did he pick the herb and then rejoin Su Jinyue.
Xie Linchuan also brought up the white snake, which had been broken in two.
Su Jinyue handled the white snake and discovered that it was highly venomous. Fortunately, Xie Linchuan reacted quickly, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Su Jinyue could cure this poison, but the detoxification process would take time. If Xie Linchuan was truly poisoned, he would likely suffer greatly.
Moreover, Xie Linchuan's mental pollution had not yet subsided, and Su Jinyue was also afraid of triggering a chain reaction, causing the mental pollution to spread again in his mental sea.
Taking advantage of the snake's recent death, Su Jinyue collected some venom and snake gall, keeping them in case they came in handy someday.
After processing the white snake, we'll keep the rest of its body to make snake soup, which is very nutritious.
Su Jinyue then processed the clump of herbs, which were the main ingredients for the Nourishing Spirit Pill. The higher the quality of the herbs, the better the quality of the pills produced.
Fortunately, the herb is of good quality, and Su Jinyue thinks it should be able to be used to refine a decent Spirit Nourishing Pill.
Su Jinyue discovered that the higher the quality of the medicinal herbs, the more likely they were to be guarded by spirit beasts, just like in the cultivation world.
Su Jinyue didn't understand the underlying principles, but who wouldn't want something good?
Having discovered this pattern, Su Jinyue's search for medicinal herbs became more purposeful. Since the beasts on this planet were no match for Xie Linchuan and his spiritual form, the White Tiger, high-quality medicinal herbs gradually became Su Jinyue's main target.
After a conscious search, Su Jinyue quickly found another source of high-quality medicinal herbs.
This was a large patch of flowers, blooming with vibrant and mesmerizing red blossoms. Su Jinyue was extremely excited; these were hallucinogenic flowers, the main ingredient in the Breakthrough Pill.
