C18 Human-shaped Ginseng!
That night, Wu Xiaoming had a very "beautiful" dream. In the dream, a peerless beauty actually kissed him. Hmm, it was just that she had a bit too much saliva, causing his face to be covered in it. He subconsciously touched his face and woke up. Only then did he realize that the Xiaobai had run into his arms at some point and was even licking his face with its pink tongue, causing his face to be covered in its saliva.
Wu Xiaoming grabbed the little guy who was still sleeping soundly. He really did not know how this little guy had survived in the dangerous wilderness. His alertness was so poor, and the beasts would not eat him just because he was cute. Looking at his cute appearance, Wu Xiaoming could not help but pinch his chubby face with his hand.
"Wuwu!" The little guy woke up and realized that he was being held by a hand and his face was being pinched. Just as he was about to fly into a rage, he saw the person holding him had a face full of saliva. He turned his head shyly.
When Wu Xiaoming saw the shy expression, he was also stunned. He quietly put the little guy down and muttered to himself, "Since the fox has become a demon." The moment the little guy landed, he dashed out of the cave like a white light. He did not look like he was injured at all.
Wu Xiaoming greeted the guards and left the cave to practice the Tendon Altering Scripture. Not long after, he was surrounded by his clansmen. Everyone started practicing together. Ever since Wu Xiaoming discovered that his strength and speed had increased greatly after practicing the scripture, he forced every clan member to practice the Tendon Altering Scripture in the morning. Gradually, it became a habit. Every clan member would gather together to practice the Tendon Altering Scripture after waking up. Wu Xiaoming did not know if the Marrow Cleansing Scripture was useful, so he did not force his clansmen to practice it together.
"Human, did you see the Xiaobai? I searched for it, but I couldn't find it." Chang'e asked anxiously when they were eating breakfast.
"No, I didn't see it at all. Maybe it ran away!" Wu Xiaoming said hesitantly. He couldn't tell Chang'e that he was tricked by the vixen in the morning, and the little vixen had disappeared in a flash.
"Cough, cough! Is everyone full? If you're full, Uncle Di, lead the clansmen to dig the bamboo roots. Dong and Shitou, stay here. I have something to do with you." Wu Xiaoming said to the clansmen who were waiting for today's mission.
After Uncle Di and the clansmen left, Wu Xiaoming said to Dong and Shitou, who were in a daze, "Let's go and plant the turtle eggs."
Dong and Shitou looked at Wu Xiaoming with puzzlement as he buried the turtle eggs in the sand not far away from the well. They couldn't help but mutter, "Human Emperor, why did you bury the food?"
"What are you muttering about? Go and get the bamboo. Cover the place where I buried the turtle eggs with bamboo and make it two layers. Don't leave any gaps in the middle." Just as Wu Xiaoming finished speaking, he saw the Xiaobai rushing over from the forest like a streak of light, followed by a green streak of light.
The little guy's speed was fast enough. What was that green streak of light? It was also fast enough. Wu Xiaoming and the others stared at the two streaks of lightning.
Perhaps seeing Wu Xiaoming and the others, the Xiaobai quickly ran in their direction. The streak of light behind them stopped in a hurry. Wu Xiaoming finally saw what the green streak of light was.
He saw a child with pink makeup and jade-like skin. It was like a straw hat. After the child stopped, he carefully sized up Wu Xiaoming and the others. Then, he turned around and flew back into the forest unwillingly.
When the Xiaobai came close, Wu Xiaoming found that it was holding a green plant with seven branches. The roots below were like a human-shaped radish. "Damn, isn't that ginseng? But it's so big. The entire ginseng is half the size of Xiaobai." He suddenly felt that he had missed something after transmigrating for so long.
The Xiaobai placed the ginseng in front of Wu Xiaoming and happily jumped around as if it was asking for credit. "Alright, Xiaobai knows that you've worked hard. I'll roast meat for you tonight." Wu Xiaoming picked up the ginseng. It was indeed a human-shaped ginseng. It had all the limbs and was like a baby. If the ginseng had facial features, it would be a living doll. Wu Xiaoming weighed it in his hand and found that it was at least 15 or 16 kilograms.
"Ginseng! It's even in human form. Such a big ginseng. I won't sell it if it's less than 100 million." Eh, he seemed to have forgotten that he had transmigrated. If he had such a ginseng in his previous life, he would have been rich.
The ginseng was a great tonic medicine, and there were also Lingzhi, Winter Bug, and Summer Grass. He had indeed missed out on a lot of good things! This was the primitive era, and there were definitely a lot of great tonics like cabbages and carrots, unlike the modern era.
The ginseng chicken soup was a good thing! Should he discuss with Chang'e about killing the tiger and chicken to cook the soup? Sigh, forget it. He was really afraid that the little girl would use the Stone Blade to chase him.
Only when Wu Xiaoming felt his leg being lightly bitten did he come back to his senses. He looked at Dong and Shitou who were looking at him strangely. Could it be that his face had blossomed? Wu Xiaoming couldn't help but touch his face and realized that he was actually drooling.
"Hurry up and bring the bamboo over. Get the fence ready." Wu Xiaoming looked at the distant Dong and Shitou and secretly wiped his saliva. The Xiaobai turned its head away in disdain as if it was looking down on him.
"Alright, little guy, I'll cook some meat for you." Hearing that there was roasted meat, the Xiaobai happily cried out and jumped into Wu Xiaoming's arms.
Wu Xiaoming looked at the cute little guy in his arms and found that the fur on its cheeks had turned red. It was staring at Meng Meng with its eyes full of shyness, "Looks like it's really a vixen!"
Just as Wu Xiaoming was roasting the meat for the little guy, Uncle Di and the others had returned. Chang'e immediately saw the cute Xiaobai hugging it tightly and muttering something to it.
"Human Emperor, the bamboo root has been dug out. How do we plant it? I saw Dong and Shitou surrounding the fence. What are they doing?" Uncle Di did not see anything in the fence, only an empty space, so he couldn't help but ask in doubt.
Wu Xiaoming passed the roasted meat to the Xiaobai who was staring at the roasted meat without blinking. "I will plant the bamboo together with everyone later. I will plant the turtle eggs of the Giant Turtle. I think it will hatch in two months. In the future, each of our clansmen will raise two Giant Turtles as mounts. If the Giant Turtle fully matures, we will no longer be afraid of the threat of the Giant Beasts." Wu Xiaoming hoped that they could raise 64 gigantic turtles in the future. Wu Xiaoming didn't have much confidence in this. After all, just the amount of food in the tribe was enough to give him a headache. With 64 Giant Turtles, his future days would be unimaginable.
Under Wu Xiaoming's guidance, all the bamboo roots were planted. The area was six or seven times larger than the bamboo forest they had discovered. Of course, it was only planted. As for whether it could germinate and grow, it would depend on whether the heavens were blessing them.
The primitive people were indeed good at working. Their speed and strength were top-notch. The sky had just turned dark when they all returned to the cave. Seeing that the tribe members were all preparing dinner, Wu Xiaoming didn't know how to eat the ginseng. It would be a waste if he ate it raw. Cooking the chicken soup was the best, but if he cooked Chang'e's mount, she would probably fight him to the death.
Chang'e saw Wu Xiaoming holding a human-shaped plant and muttering to himself. She snatched it away and said, "Human, are you planning to eat this? Hmm, let me try it first."
"Hey …" Before Wu Xiaoming could finish his sentence, Chang'e had already taken a bite. One of the ginseng's arms was gone. The magical thing was that the bite wound actually healed on its own. There was no trace of the bite at all.
"Uh!" Chang'e burped, "Human, what is this thing? I feel full, and my whole body feels warm and comfortable!"
"This is ginseng, a magical plant that is created by the heavens and the earth. Are you sure you're full?" Wu Xiaoming looked at Chang'e curiously. No way, a small ginseng can fill you up?
"Yes! I'm full. I won't eat anything tonight. And this thing is so delicious. It melts in my mouth, it's so fragrant!" Chang'e looked at the ginseng that was like a doll, "If we store dozens of them in the winter, we won't have to starve."
It was no wonder! This world was different from Earth. Even ancient dinosaurs didn't have animals that were as big as the giant tortoise. There was nothing special about having more magical ginsengs.
It was a waste to eat directly, and it seemed like Chang'e could only eat one bite. It was better to boil the soup. The turtle egg soup should be delicious. Wu Xiaoming thought about it and added water to the stone pot. He put the ginseng and the turtle meat in it, and when the water was boiling, he put a turtle egg into it.
The cave was filled with a refreshing fragrance that was difficult to resist. All the clansmen who were roasting meat or boiling soup stopped what they were doing and surrounded the stone pot.
The thick and milky soup continued to churn, and the fragrance of the soup continued to surround the stone pot. Chang'e's mount, the tiger chicken, also passed through the bamboo house's passageway and squeezed into the cave, continuously calling out.
Chang'e stared blankly at Wu Xiaoming, who had each of them a bamboo bowl of meat soup. Unfortunately, the mount's mouth was cheap and had already eaten a mouthful. Now, whether it was its stomach or its mind, it was full.
After the clansmen drank a bowl, they stopped drinking. Wu Xiaoming drank two bowls, and the one who drank the most was actually the cute little guy, Xiaobai. The rest of the meat soup was all drunk by him.
After drinking, Wu Xiaoming felt his entire body warming up. At the same time, his body felt as if there was a small hand gently massaging it. His entire body was itchy and numb, and it was extremely comfortable.
"Good stuff! I really don't know where Xiaobai found it. Oh right, that little kid that I have been neglecting, could it be that it is a ginseng that has become a spirit? Hmm, it's very likely that it is a living human ginseng. If it has all the facial features, it would be a living doll." Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoming was extremely vexed. If only he could catch that little kid.
