Chapter 357

Thousand Grain Gold

The wall of the mountain was almost perpendicular to the ground and it might be difficult for most of the people to climb. However, Shao Xuan was a skilled hunter who climbed often. This was nothing to him.

The old man was watching from the ground when Shao Xuan jumped from the ground and climbed up the mountain like a lizard. It seemed easy for Shao Xuan. The old man was staring at Shao Xuan throughout the process, he couldn’t help raising his eyebrow when watching such smooth movement.

Shao Xuan sensed something when he was climbing, he stopped climbing and turned his head. In an instant, he met the old man’s eyes.

The old man gave Shao Xuan an unusual friendly smile. He waved to Shao Xuan and pointed to the plant on the hill and said, “Carry on, please proceed.”

Shao Xuan was curious, but he continued to climb and reached out to the plant. He was about to pull the plant out forcefully.

“Eh! Don’t pull it, don’t pull it! Use my knife to dig it out, you can keep the plant longer by retaining its root. Use my knife, catch!” The old man grabbed a weird-looking bronze knife from his cloth bag and tossed it to Shao Xuan.

“What a troublesome old man.” Shao Xuan muttered in annoyance.

Luckily, the old man threw the knife perfectly, Shao Xuan successfully grabbed the knife with one hand. With the help of another hand, he supported himself to stay on the cliff by grabbing a part of the mountain that was sunken in. Then, he used the knife to dig that plant out.

The knife may seem weird, but it was a suitable tool for digging the plant that was grown on the cliff. It only took a while for Shao Xuan to dig the whole plant out.

“Hold it!” Shao Xuan threw the knife and the plant towards the ground.

The old man rushed to get the plant in a careful manner, ignoring the knife that Shao Xuan had thrown.
