Chapter 781 - 780, Ya Li Hurt_1
"La la la~~ La~~~" As she hummed a nameless tune and swung her little hoe, Ji Nuan suddenly thought of a saying: "As long as the hoe is swung well, there is no corner that can’t be dug up."
"Tsk!" She couldn’t help but sneer at herself, wondering how she could think of such a phrase. However, considering applying this phrase to the policies of the tribes, she quite amusedly thought to herself, "Hmm, that’s pretty good."
"What’s so good?" Xiu Yan couldn’t help but feel amused seeing her, a silly young woman squatting on the ground with a small spade, smiling disconcertedly. He wondered what cheerful thing she was thinking about.
Ji Nuan looked up at the towering orc and replied with a cheerful smile, "Of course, it’s our strategy."
The orc let out a deep chuckle, "That’s your strategy. Are you hungry? Want something to eat?"
Ji Nuan shook her head, "No, I want to dig up more herbs to take back."
"Shaman! Shaman!" Suddenly an anxious call came from the forest. Ji Nuan quickly stood up, so suddenly she staggered, and Xiu Yan quickly came over to hold her in his arms: "Are you okay?"
Ji Nuan shook her head, "I’m fine, I guess I just squatted for too long."
There were urgent footsteps in the forest, and orc carrying Ya Li rushed out from the trees.
Ji Nuan’s heart skipped a beat and she ran to ask anxiously, "What happened? What’s wrong with Ya Li?"
"While we were chasing a beast today, we found it eating an unknown plant it had dug up. After catching the beast, we wanted to check out the plant. The plant had been gnawed half by the beast, and Ya Li got the juice on his hands. He rubbed his eyes when we got back, and they immediately turned red. Now he can’t even open his eyes."
He can’t even open his eyes! It’s quite severe.
"Hurry up and lay him down, let me see."
The orcs sat Ya Li on a beast skin pad. Ji Nuan quickly went to examine him. The skin around his eyes was red and continuously shedding tears.
After examining him, Ji Nuan looked at Ya Li, "How do you feel now?"
Ya Li calmly replied, "My eyes feel like they are being burnt by a fire seed and I can’t help but keep crying."
Ji Nuan frowned and asked the surrounding orcs, "Did you bring back that plant?"
The orcs took out a forearm-long, earth-colored root-like object, "It was this. Ya Li’s eyes reacted like this when they came into contact with this thing’s juice."
Ji Nuan took the object from them. Her eyes lit up, "This thing."
"Does Nuannuan know this? Is it a kind of herb?" Xiu Yan asked as he heard her words.
Ji Nuan nodded her head and then shook it, "It seems like an herb, but I’m not sure."
Then she took out a small knife from the basket next to her and cut the root-like object in half. It immediately released a pungent smell and Ji Nuan was overjoyed, "This is ginger."
She stood their route and told the orc standing by our route spoke up: "quickly, get a few jars of clean water. Ya Li has to rinse his eye."
Upon hearing her words, the orcs were stunned, "Just like that?"
Ji Nuan nodded, "Just like that, go quickly."
Delighted, the orcs quickly ran into the tent and brought out jugs of water. They looked rather clumsy, glancing at Ji Nuan, "Should we pour it directly?"
Ji Nuan nodded, "Just pour it slowly from top to bottom."
