Chapter 168: Chapter 168: Dawn Cedar Heaven Chapter 168: Chapter 168: Dawn Cedar Heaven Just as they were on their way back, the heavens opened up again without warning.
The group was caught off-guard and soon beca as drenched as drowned rats.
“The weather here is really odd, bursting into rain without any signs,” Bai Sasa grumbled as she ran.
Bai Junjun glanced at the sky-ladder-like mountain walls and sighed, “I’m afraid it’s because we’re right below the North-South River. This area is low-lying and humid, so frequent rain and fog are normal.”
They hurried back to their shelter, and despite it being sumr, the hollow was still very cool. Even the robust Bai Sasa couldn’t stop sneezing.
Bai Junjun told her to start a fire there and then ran out again.
“Where are you going, elder sister?”
Now Xiao Shan also started to address Bai Junjun as ‘elder sister,’ just like Bai Sasa did.
To Bai Junjun, “sister,” “big sister,” “old sister,” and “elder sister” made no difference. She didn’t mind or try to correct them; they could call her whatever they wanted.
Bai Junjun rely said she was going to look for food, cup in hand, and then vanished.
Bai Sasa looked puzzledly at the half pot of fish soup left from the morning.
“Isn’t this… enough to eat?”
But where was Bai Junjun’s Shadow now?
The Bai Junjun who said she went searching for food actually went to see her old friend.
The Small Cedarwood, luxuriating in the rain, suddenly felt soone approaching and couldn’t help but shudder.
It wasn’t long before Bai Junjun appeared, squatting and smiling beside the Small Cedarwood.
She twiddled the tips of the little tree, which stood over a ter tall and found so new sprouts at the top.
It seed plants truly did love rainwater!
She wondered whether the Small Cedarwood, after so growth here, would beco as large as the treehouse. If it did grow large, wouldn’t that an she would have a constant supply of the Water of Flora?
At the thought, Bai Junjun’s eyes glead with excitent.
However, before the Small Cedarwood grew up, she had to confirm whether the Water of Flora within the Xiao Miao would beco diluted. If it ended up like the other trees around here, with its essence watered down, that wouldn’t do at all.
Thinking this, Bai Junjun quickly connected with the Small Cedarwood, giving it a loving examination.
This investigation, however, took Bai Junjun by surprise.
She had been rcilessly extracting from the Small Cedarwood, and it was unimaginable that after just a day and a night’s rest, the Water of Flora inside the tree had replenished as if it had never been harvested.
No wonder it was thriving in the wind; it was full and content!
Therefore, Bai Junjun, without any reservation, first filled a cup and gulped it down in tribute, and then packed two water bladders to take away.
The water bladders given to her by the Qiu family had all been swept away by the water. The cup she now had was designed after a modern twist-top model, which she had finished just the previous night, after lengthy efforts.
Moreover, to carry more water, Bai Junjun had made sure these were one-liter water bladders.
Two water bladders equaled two liters.
Bear in mind that the first ti she t the Dawn Cedar, she only filled two and a half water bladders, and those could barely hold 500 milliliters. In other words, after soaking for a night, the Water of Flora of this Xiao Miao had actually doubled compared to before.
She had tasted it herself a mont ago, and the flavor was exactly the sa as before.
Indeed, the Dawn Cedar needed to be soaked in water to accumulate it!
Thinking back, she had forcefully taken it from its original place these past days, and while they raced across the land, it could only be watered when resting; she truly owed the Dawn Cedar Xiao Miao an apology.
Bai Junjun rarely showed such tender affection as she patted the Small Cedarwood’s little branches: “Before we leave this place, I won’t move you again, so enjoy your spa and showers, grow strong and hearty, alright?”
