Chapter 236 - 156: The Powerful Vine Tribe
In the bamboo house, the Old Witch looked at the beast hides and said, "After all, beast hide is still beast hide and cannot be preserved for long. Therefore, I’ve decided to carve the ’Great Wilderness Hundred Herbs Map’ onto top-grade stones."
Stone carving is an older method of recording compared to the beast skin scroll.
Beast skin scrolls can be damaged by moisture, fire, weathering, etc., but it’s relatively hard to destroy stone carvings unless someone were to smash or chip them away.
However, compared to beast skin scrolls, stone carvings require more time, especially when dealing with top-grade stone, which is very hard, making Witch Script carving not easy on them.
The Old Witch then looked at Chi Shao and said, "I’m old. It’s hard for me alone to finish the ’Great Wilderness Hundred Herbs Map’. If one day I leave, I hope you will continue to complete it. It will benefit your Vine Tribe."
Chi Shao solemnly nodded, agreeing to this matter.
"I also have another request," the Old Witch offered sincerely to Chi Shao.
"Tell me," Chi Shao responded.
"If there’s an opportunity in the future, I hope you can transcribe the ’Great Wilderness Hundred Herbs Map’ onto beast skin and give it to the Eagle Tribe of the Eastern Wilderness."
Chi Shao replied without hesitation, "Alright, I promise you."
"That way, even if I suddenly go to see the Eagle God one day, I’ll have no regrets."
