Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102: Amnesiac âHunterâ Lady vs. Transmigrated Lady in the Mountains (Part 18)
Gu Shengyin followed Shih Lei out hunting every day, only returning for meals, and when she was home, Shih Lei was usually there too, so A Xiu had no chance to find her again.
That day, when the two returned to the courtyard, Gu Shengyin paused as soon as she stepped in.
She casually glanced around the entire courtyard.
Shih Lei looked at her, puzzled: âWhatâs wrong, Ah Luan?â
Gu Shengyin withdrew her gaze and said, âNothing.â
She put down the things in her hand, watching Shih Lei take things out to the riverside to clean.
âSystem, someone has tampered with this courtyard.â
The system replied, âYes, Host, some herbs have been mixed in with the wild grass by the fence.â
Gu Shengyin walked over and parted the grass. Indeed, a few palm-sized green herbs were growing among them.
The little herbs looked no different from the surrounding grass, except some spots appeared along the edge of the leaves, as if ordinary grass leaves had pests.
But these werenât pests; this is how the herb naturally grows.
Moreover, Gu Shengyin recognized this herb.
Precisely because she recognized this herb, she was curious about where A Xiu found it.
âPoisonous Wolfâs Bane,â an extremely rare poisonous plant.
How potent is this plantâs poison? It could seal oneâs throat upon contact with blood, not to mention it has a characteristic where its toxin can spread through the air.
Occasionally encountered, itâs not a problem, but if, like now, it grows in a courtyard where people stay for a long time daily, then within three days, people in the courtyard will experience dizziness, nausea, and drowsiness.
If not detected and treated promptly, it could lead to unconsciousness.
And if ingested orally, within one Shichen, oneâs body would be covered in red spots, unbearably itchy, leading to death from poisoning.
Gu Shengyin stared at the Poisonous Wolfâs Bane for a while and silently covered it with grass again.
The next day, while hunting, she silently gathered a few herbs from a place.
She knew that where there is Poisonous Wolfâs Bane, there would certainly be Amaranthus to counteract its poisonous properties.
Shih Lei looked at the things in her hand, puzzled: âWhy did you pick two herbs?â
Gu Shengyin wiped the dirt off the roots and placed the Amaranthus into the basket on her back.
âI recognize this; drinking it can strengthen the body. This season, people easily fall ill, so letâs stew it tonight and each drink a bowl.â
Upon hearing this, Shih Lei fell silent for a moment.
He bowed his head and asked, âAh Luan, recently Iâve noticed youâre remembering more and more. Are you close to recalling things from before?â
Gu Shengyin didnât catch the meaning behind his words, nodded upon hearing: âI remembered quite a bit, seeing some things I know their uses, but still canât recall critical things, probably need more time.â
Shih Lei responded with an âOhâ to show he understood, and didnât speak further.
He should be happy.
Heâd long known Ah Luan wasnât from here and would leave someday, right?
Upon hearing the news about her gradually regaining her memory, why wasnât he happy, but rather felt a bit sad?
Probably because he feared that once she remembers everything, she would leave, right?
Leave this mountain village and return to her big city.
And itâs uncertain if future Ah Luan would still remember this big stone.
