I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

Chapter 123 - 123 Winter Herb



She found them so easily!

Lin Suisui picked up her skirt and ran towards the pine tree without another word.

Although Lu Ze was busy moving the corpses of the wild wolves onto the plow, when he saw Lin Suisui’s actions, he quickly put down the work in his hand and followed her over. He stood behind Lin Suisui and following her gaze, he looked towards the tree. “What are you looking at?!”

“Look, that’s the Winter Herb.”

Lin Suisui raised her hand and pointed at the cluster of crystals that didn’t look much different from icicles amidst the tree branch. She introduced them to Lu Ze excitedly, “It can only be born in frost and snow. It absorbs the nutrients of this pine tree, and the moment this pine tree withers is when it ripens!

“At that time, we’ll pluck it back and burn the withered tree it parasitizes. Then, we’ll use the ashes to brew wine. The wine we make will be the legendary ‘Forgetfulness’.”

“The ‘Forgetfulness’ that can allow one to forget all troubles?”

Although Lu Ze didn’t know what the Winter Herb Lin Suisui was telling him about was, he had heard of it before.

This medicine was very famous, but because it was too rare, people had always questioned its authenticity.

To be able to forget everything in the past and start a new life…

“The reason Forgetfulness is rare is mainly because the Winter Herb is rare. Winter Herb would either be found so late that it had already dissipated with the withered trees, or found so early that one couldn’t find any traces of it. By the time one found Winter Herb, it was already past the best time to pluck it.”

Lin Suisui raised her hand and pointed at the pine branch that had been green just now but was gradually turning yellow. “Look, once the Winter Herb grows, it will devour vitality faster and faster. If I’m not wrong, this Winter Herb can be picked in less than an hour!”

At this point, Lin Suisui rubbed her hands excitedly. “We came at the right time. I heard from my mentor that he had discovered a Winter Herb previously, but it had just germinated at that time and wasn’t devouring vitality as quickly as before.

In order not to miss it, her mentor had been guarding under the tree for two days and two nights. On the third day, he was too tired, so he took a nap. However, during this nap, he missed the harvest of the Winter Herb.

He was so angry that he never thought of coming to the north to pick Winter Herbs again!”

Lin Suisui was clearly in a good mood. She was even in the mood to tell Lu Ze about funny stories about Winter Herbs.

“Can ‘Forgetfulness’ really make people forget all their pain?!” Lu Ze was also amused by what Lin Suisui said, but he was actually more curious about the authenticity of Forgetfulness’ effects.

“Of course.” Lin Suisui nodded and looked at Lu Ze with certainty. “When a person dies, it’s like a lamp going out. As long as they’re gone, won’t they be able to forget all the pain after reincarnation?!”

Lu Ze was stunned for a moment. He really didn’t expect that Forgetfulness let people forget all the pain through this method…

“You didn’t expect this, did you?!

The reason ‘Forgetfulness’ is magical was because it can let a person in pain leave this world in extreme joy. It can let people see everything they wanted to see and obtain everything they want through a hallucination!

It bewitches people and makes them unwilling to return to reality.

That’s why it’s called “Forgetfulness”.”

Lin Suisui explained to Lu Ze in a low voice, “The main reason I want to create Forgetfulness is because Forgetfulness is the catalyst to creating another beneficial medicine.”

“It’s fine. If you want it, we’ll guard it!” Since Lin Suisui wanted it, Lu Ze naturally had nothing to object to. Not to mention that they would only be here for an hour, even if they had to wait for an entire night, he would cooperate and help.

At the very least, there wouldn’t be a tragedy of missing the harvesting period because of a moment of stupor!

The two of them stayed in the forest for most of the day. Not only did they successfully pick the Winter Herb, but they also cut the pine tree and burned it to ashes.

Lin Suisui brought the materials she had been coveting and Lu Ze placed them in an empty seat on the plow. He dragged her all the way back to the camp under the cover of the night.

When Lu Ze brought Lin Suisui back to the camp, not only was it already dark, but the snow that had stopped for a day and a night also began to fall again.

“Why did you guys come back so late today? We were planning to go up the mountain to look for you guys in a while!” When Fang Dalang, who was guarding the entrance of the refugee camp, saw Lu Ze and Lin Suisui, he finally relaxed and took a few steps forward with a happy expression. When he saw the prey Lu Ze was dragging, he was so shocked that his eyes widened. “Oh my god, Brother Gu, you guys encountered a wolf pack?!”

“Carry the things back first.” Lu Ze handed the vine in his hand to Fang Dalang and reached out to pull Lin Suisui up from the vine. He instructed him nonchalantly, “This is not a good place to talk.”

Fang Dalang nodded and quickly dragged the plow back.

As soon as they returned to the tent, Mrs. Luo and the others stood up anxiously from the bonfire. When they saw that although Lin Suisui and Lu Ze reeked of blood, they didn’t look seriously injured, they heaved a sigh of relief.

“This is too dangerous. The two of you dared to enter the mountain when the snow was sealing it?!

Fortunately, the wolf pack the two of you encountered wasn’t big. If the two of you had encountered a big wolf pack, you would have been in grave danger today!”

Wu Liu came over to size up the gains on the plow with obvious disapproval in his eyes. “Although you’re a good hunter, this is the north after all. When the snow seals the mountain, the danger in the mountain is unimaginable!”

“I understand. There won’t be a next time!”

Lu Ze could tell that Wu Liu was worried. He looked at Wu Liu with a smile and humbly accepted his reproach.

“The most terrifying beasts in the north are wolves! I’ve once encountered a large wolf pack, there were more than a thousand of them! Wolves actually rarely gather together. They had no choice but to gather together because winter was too harsh to survive on their own!

“At that time, we went out with the marshal to ambush the northern barbarians. Originally, we were victorious, but when we returned, we were ambushed by the northern barbarians. The 200-odd brothers we went with were surrounded by more than 500 northern barbarians. At first, we thought that we had no chance of survival, so we wanted to take the final gamble and kill every one of them. In the end, we encountered a wolf pack!”
