Chapter 475 Going up the mountain to collect herbs
Liu Mang decided to change his strategy; this time, he would no longer launch a fierce attack on Su Xiaoxiao.

Instead, he would occasionally go in front of Su Xiaoxiao to make his presence known, and then immediately disappear.

On this day, the village chief of Wangshui Village went to Qian Musheng's house and said that their village's crops had recently been plagued by locusts, and he wondered if Doctor Su could help control the locusts.

Speaking of that era, in fact, no one in the entire country was able to completely control the locust plague.

In their hearts, Su Xiaoxiao was no longer just a miracle doctor, but an omnipotent deity.

That's why they come to Su Xiaoxiao for help whether they have something to do or not. Last time, Su Xiaoxiao made friends with the villagers of Wangshui Village, which can be considered a kind of fate.

Su Xiaoxiao actually had experience in fighting locust plagues, so she agreed without any hesitation.

This time, Su Xiaoxiao decided to try a different approach. Since she was known as a miracle doctor, she would choose to use herbal remedies to combat this locust plague, which was said to be a once-in-a-century event.

As for the herb that Su Xiaoxiao thought of, it was called Xianmao grass, but the villagers had never heard of it.

Qian Musheng had to return to Xianglan Ancient Town. Su Xiaoxiao originally wanted to go up the mountain alone, but when she was at the entrance, she encountered Liu Mang, who was wandering around there.

Just then, Su Xiaoxiao grabbed him and prepared to go up the mountain with him to pick the fairy grass.

Liu Mang was naturally delighted, as this was an opportunity to have a private conversation with Su Xiaoxiao.

He didn't even bring any attendants with him. He felt that even a fly would hinder his chance for intimate contact with Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao looked Liu Mang up and down, frowned, and noticed that he was wearing a long silk robe, which would be very inconvenient for him to go up the mountain.

Su Xiaoxiao had a sudden idea and said to him, "Young Master Liu, I think you should change your clothes with your attendants. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to go up the mountain."

Liu Mang quickly agreed to change his clothes, but when Su Xiaoxiao saw him appear in front of her in a short, coarse cloth outfit, she was stunned.

This was the second time Su Xiaoxiao had been stunned by this stunningly handsome man, leaving her completely bewildered.

It wasn't that Su Xiaoxiao was ignorant because she hadn't seen much of the world; in fact, she had seen countless handsome men in the world.

It wasn't until the seemingly excited young master Liu Mang walked up to Su Xiaoxiao, patted her on the head, and said to her, "Dr. Su, what are you still standing there for? Don't delay the important matter."

Su Xiaoxiao finally realized what was happening. She nodded quickly, then lowered her head and smiled awkwardly.

"Okay, let's set off right away!"

Su Xiaoxiao was very excited because she was going hiking.

Having grown up in the mountains, she ran very nimbly.

But Liu Mang was different. He had been pampered in the capital since childhood, and wherever he went, he was always in a carriage or sedan chair. Moreover, he had always been in poor health and never exercised, which made him so breathless that he was almost unable to breathe.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the panting young master Liu Mang with disbelief. "No, young master Liu, how come your body is so weak? You can't even walk halfway?"

Upon hearing this, young master Liu Mang realized he had lost face in front of Su Xiaoxiao, and how could he admit it?

"Who says I can't do it? I don't know how many times a day I run up and down these mountain roads!"

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him disdainfully, thinking to herself, "You probably've never climbed such a long mountain path in your life, have you?"

Young Master Liu Mang wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued on his way.

Watching Liu Mang's retreating figure, Su Xiaoxiao could only sigh helplessly. The two quickly reached the mountainside, where Liu Mang stopped, carefully observing his surroundings. Suddenly, he grabbed Su Xiaoxiao with a serious expression.

Su Xiaoxiao turned around, looking puzzled, and asked Liu Mang, "What's wrong? Are you exhausted and planning to give up halfway?"

"I think I've found the herb you mentioned."

At this moment, young master Liu Mang pointed to a magical herb in front of him and said, "It looks like this magical herb to me."

Following his gaze, Su Xiaoxiao noticed a blade of grass with thick, emerald-green leaves, looking very moist, under a large pine tree in the distance.

If it weren't for Young Master Liu Mang reminding her, Su Xiaoxiao would have almost forgotten why she came to the mountain in the first place.

If it weren't for Young Master Liu Mang coming along, Su Xiaoxiao would probably have missed it.

However, speaking of such things, Su Xiaoxiao, being so carefree, has done them before.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly took out a small shovel from her backpack. "Let's get started digging!"

Su Xiaoxiao knew that one plant of Immortal Grass would definitely not be enough to deal with the locust plague.

"it is good."

Young Master Liu Mang seemed quite excited and started digging with Su Xiaoxiao, ignoring the dirty mud.

Su Xiaoxiao's liking for this young master immediately increased a few points. In fact, people can only understand each other through interaction.

Thinking about how she brought this young master, whom she thought would be a burden, up the mountain today, but who turned out to be a great help to her, Su Xiaoxiao began to feel fortunate that she had brought him along.

After a lot of effort from the two of them, the amount of fairy grass in Su Xiaoxiao and Liu Mang's baskets kept increasing, and Su Xiaoxiao felt very happy.

As she dug up the fairy grass, she said to Young Master Liu Mang, "Young Master Liu, I think if we dig like this, we'll definitely be able to dig enough before dark today."

After she finished speaking, Su Xiaoxiao didn't hear any response from Liu Mang for a long time.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly turned around and saw Liu Mang staggering towards her. After a few steps, he collapsed at her feet.

Su Xiaoxiao noticed that Liu Mang's face looked ashen, as if he had liver disease, and he was having difficulty breathing. She wondered why he had become like this.

Su Xiaoxiao was terrified and quickly called out, "Liu Mang, Young Master Liu, are you alright?"

However, when Su Xiaoxiao called out a few times, she saw that Young Master Liu Mang's eyes were still tightly closed, showing no signs of waking up.

Su Xiaoxiao panicked a little and quickly grabbed his face, looking him over from side to side. It seemed to be related to his heart.

Thinking that although she had cured Liu Mang's chronic illness, his body was still too weak, Su Xiaoxiao was extremely anxious.

Just then, she looked up and saw a high-quality ginseng growing next to her, which she estimated to be over a hundred years old.

Su Xiaoxiao remembered that as long as she broke off a small piece of ginseng, she could immediately save this person from the brink of death.

She decided to give it a try and see if what was recorded in the ancient books was true.

Su Xiaoxiao broke off a piece of ginseng and put it into Liu Mang's mouth, telling him to hold it in his mouth.

After a few minutes, Su Xiaoxiao kept calling out in his ear, and Young Master Liu Mang actually opened his eyes.
