Its entirety was a radiant red, even in the darkness of the night it reflected specks of red light, resembling a flame burning bright.
The very Red Sun Grass that Lin Yanran of Hundred Herbs Hall had asked Zhang Xiaoshan to help her find.
Zhang Xiaoshan initially agreed to try looking for it on behalf of Lin Yanran.
But he never expected to actually find it, and in such a manner, as if it had fallen from the sky.
"What is this thing?"
"I know a bit about herbs too, but I have never seen this before."
Yu Xiuxiu was puzzled.
If she could recognize Red Blood Ganoderma at a glance, then she must truly have some discerning abilities, yet faced with the Red Sun Grass laid out on the ground, she was still completely baffled.
Zhang Xiaoshan didn’t hide anything from Xiuxiu and said directly.
"This is called Red Sun Grass, a treasured medicine that can treat cold poison, something that’s found by chance and not sought after."
"Is it even more precious than Red Blood Ganoderma?"
"Of course, it’s incomparable. Red Blood Ganoderma is very rare but as long as you have money, a lot of money, it can be found, although it’s extremely scarce. But the Red Sun Grass is different."
"Red Sun Grass is only mentioned in some very obscure ancient medical books, and it’s even close to extinction, meaning there’s no price for it because it’s virtually unavailable. I too have only seen some records of it, never in my wildest dreams did I expect to actually encounter it. This can be considered an enormous stroke of luck."
"So its value must be higher than that of Stone Clinging Ganoderma?"
Yu Xiuxiu asked curiously.
Zhang Xiaoshan, however, shook his head. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩•𝗳𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Its rarity can be considered dozens of times that of Stone Clinging Ganoderma, but its value might not necessarily be higher. Value is determined by market demand, as I just said. This Red Sun Grass is a healing medicine, not something everyone can use. Of course, those who can use it are definitely either rich or noble. It just so happens that I know someone noble who is looking for this, and if I trade it with them, I could get a few million."
Hearing this, Yu Xiuxiu was even more excited.
Just days before she had been forced to borrow usurious loans from Wei Bao to help Zhang Xiaoshan gather money for Wu Xiaoru’s marriage, and suddenly acquiring wealth worth millions felt like an incredible blessing.
While they were talking, the huge black tiger collapsed to the ground.
By this time, it was only exhaling without inhaling.
It gazed affectionately at the small white tiger cub Zhang Xiaoshan was holding in his arms.
Zhang Xiaoshan squatted down, stroking the black tiger’s forehead, and said gently.
"Rest easy, I will take good care of your child. When it grows up, I’ll let it return to the mountains."
"Also, that Red Training Snake King might have faked death and escaped, but if I ever encounter it again, I’ll make sure to kill it and avenge you."
The black tiger’s massive tail stood erect and swayed as if it was saying ’thank you’ to Zhang Xiaoshan.
Its loving and gentle gaze remained locked on the little white tiger.
Following that, it let out a breath, closed its eyes, and the breathing stopped.
The Black Tiger was dead.
But it had no more concerns or regrets.
Just as the black tiger’s breath ceased completely, the little white tiger curled up in Zhang Xiaoshan’s embrace let out whimpers as if sensing something, its sounds were utterly mournful, seemingly bidding farewell to its great mother.
Yu Xiuxiu, who stood to the side, sighed and looked towards Zhang Xiaoshan; she had habitually come to rely on him as her pillar.
"Little Shan, what should we do next?"
