In the afternoon, Shao Xiaoqi got two roosters and three pigeon-size grouses, nothing more.
Seeing the shadow in the forest became larger, they realized that it was time to go back home. Shao Erlang and Shao Silang got quite anxious.
They had their eyes widely-opened, seeking honey.
But honey wasn't so easy to find, even if they made efforts.
On their way home, Qiao Xuan found a very special-looking orchid in the forest.
Orchids grew nicely in the woods. There were patches of such plants everywhere, which were good to decorate the garden, yet worth not that much money.
Qiao Xuan could tell directly if any special kind was sprouting within.
She pretended as if she were picking the mushrooms. She walked over and picked them up.
She found a few more of them, and took them all. She placed them in the space without anyone noticing it.
Thanks to the superpower, Qiao Xuan was not that careful when it came to the dangerous forests. She walked ahead absent-mindedly.
Suddenly, she sensed a strong pain on her finger and saw that she had been bitten by a black, large centipede.
Her snowy and skinny fingers became swollen and she was in a lot of pain.
Qiao Xuan's face changed. She had not yet done anything when she sensed that some electrical life stream was going into her fingers as if washing away the dirt. Suddenly, the black blood rushed out and the poison inside her finger went away.
A short while later, the swollen part faded away and the pain was suppressed.
Only a tiny, narrow red spot of wound was seen, and the stream-like power went all over the body.
Qiao Xuan looked at her finger in astonishment. She smiled. Good, her superpower knew exactly what it needed to do. How thoughtful! But she wondered if this function of healing could work on others too.
Qiao Xuan's heart throbbed. She was so excited!
She planned to use it on the chicken, ducks and geese at home first. If it worked, it would be so wonderful.
Soon after, she went back, smiling at her husband. "Darling, it is getting late, what about going back home?
Shao Yunduan looked at Qiao Xuan, wondering if he could figure something different about his wife. Her eyes were sparkling as if she had run into something cheerful.
Was it because they had teased their cousins?
Shao Yunduan smiled and found that reasonable. It was the second section of the family who asked for this treatment.
"Yes, it is getting late, let's go home!"
"Okay, good, let's go home!"
All nodded in agreement.
Shao Erlang and Shao Silang were not very convinced, but they understood that it would be very dangerous to wander about, when the sunlight went away.
So they had to agree in distress.
The mushrooms and wild bamboo shoots in the mountains could be seen everywhere. They had enough in their basket on their way home.
They had many mushrooms, yams, wild bamboo shoots as well as roots of kudzu vines. Shao Erlang and Shao Silang were forced to carry them home too..
