189 Valley of Treasures

A very subtle sound broke the silence, like a bolt of lightning tearing open the dark night sky.

“They’re here!”

Mo Ruyue said in a low voice.

A gust of cold wind with a fishy smell hit her face, followed by a black light that flashed past and arrived in front of him in an instant.

Mo Ruyue was bold and skilled. When the black panther pounced, she didn’t rush to dodge, but held the silver needle in her hand tightly. When the black panther had already reached the highest point and started to pounce towards her, the momentum of the fall made it unable to change its posture, she waved her hand and shot the silver needle.

At such a close distance and at such a fast speed, the black panther had no way of dodging the silver needle that came at her and was shot right on the head.

The strong anesthetic made the Black Panther lose consciousness almost instantly, and it fell into a deep coma before it even hit the ground.

Mo Ruyue twisted her body slightly and dodged the black panther that was falling down. When she brushed past it, she grabbed the back of its neck and fell down the tree.

The black panther fell heavily to the ground. Mo Ruyue used it as a cushion and flipped over, landing lightly and silently on the ground.

She looked at the unconscious black panther and suddenly lost the thought of killing it or selling it.

This black panther’s fur was extremely beautiful, and if it was completely peeled off, it could be sold for a hundred taels of gold. Of course, the price could only be higher. To an ordinary commoner, this was definitely an astronomical wealth.

However, perhaps it was because Mo Ruyue had dealt with the giant wolf pack many times, but she had unconsciously developed a faint friendship with these fierce beasts. This black panther should be an elf living in the deep mountains and not a plaything for human greed.

Now, even if she no longer provided Guanglai building with game, the money she earned from the consultation in Huichun Hall was enough to support the family.

The numbing effect of this shot was enough to let the black panther sleep for two hours, which was enough for Mo Ruyue.

She threw the black panther into her interspace without any protective measures. After she was done dealing with the wolves, she would find a safe place to let the black panther out and get rid of the anesthesia.

If the defenseless black panther was left on the spot, it would be no different from killing it.

After this short interlude, Mo Ruyue went back on her way. She clearly felt that the hunters who had been waiting for an opportunity behind her had left quietly.

The scene just now was enough to shock the hunters who were still tempted. This was one of her original goals.

Very quickly, Mo Ruyue arrived at the valley of treasures. When she was close to the entrance of the cave, she noticed that a few wolves had revealed their heads in the dark. After realizing that it was her, they quietly returned to their previous hiding place.

This should be a hidden sentry arranged by the black wolf king. It was one of the few giant wolves in the wolf pack that were uninjured or had light injuries, and they were sent out to take on the task of guarding.

Mo Ruyue entered the valley and took out an oil lamp from her interspace. The sudden light caused a small commotion among the wolf pack, but it immediately quieted down after the black wolf king whimpered.

“I’m worried about your situation, so I came back to see.”

Mo Ruyue said as he walked to the black wolf king’s side.

She carefully examined its body. Without the time accelerator, the wolf king’s recovery was slow. After all, its previous injury had almost killed it. Even if the wound healed, it would still need enough rest and nourishment to recover its vitality.

The black wolf king whimpered and raised its head to lick the back of Mo Ruyue’s hand, as if to tell her that it was fine.

“I’ve made some medicine and soup for your wolf cubs. They’ll get better quickly after drinking it, so you should drink it too. I thought that your recovery abilities are much stronger than humans, so I’m sure you’ll be back to normal after drinking it a few times.”

Mo Ruyue now treated every wolf as a person. Not only did she heal them, but she was also responsible for their nourishment.

She took some time to make a big pot of chicken soup in her interspace, just waiting to add nutrition to the wolves’ meals.

After being fed the medicine and chicken soup, the black wolf king’s spirit clearly became better. It could only lie down all the time, but now it could stand up and walk slowly.

Sure enough, the recovery speed of giant wolves was far beyond that of humans. For such a serious injury, humans would not take medicine twice or drink a bowl of chicken soup to recover more than half.

“Very good, if this continues for two to three days, your entire wolf pack will be able to completely regain their fighting strength.”

Mo Ruyue stretched out her hand and gently stroked the black wolf king’s nose. Then, she prepared to go home.

Seeing that the wolves were hiding in the valley to recuperate as she had told them to, Mo Ruyue was relieved.

When the wolves recovered, it was almost time for her to perform the operation on the magistrate’s daughter. As for the blood type test and the preservation of the blood, it seemed that she could only do it in the medical room in the interspace.

In any case, with the time regulator, she could enter and exit the interspace in an instant. At that time, she just had to avoid Imperial Doctor Tian and a few assistants, and she wouldn’t be discovered.

After Mo Ruyue left the valley of treasures, she returned to the place where she had been attacked by the black panther. She remembered that there was a cave not far east from here. Although the cave was not very deep, it was at least a relatively safe place to stay in the dark.

She followed her memory and quickly found the cave.

It was only five or six meters from the entrance to the rock wall inside. It was a very shallow hole, only about two meters wide, and it looked very narrow.

Mo Ruyue brought the black panther out of the medium and placed it on the ground. As the effects of the tranquilizer had not worn off, the black panther was still in a deep coma.

She had used a slow-releasing agent to reduce the effect of the anesthesia. She estimated that the black panther would slowly wake up in about ten minutes.

This cave was too shallow and narrow, so the protection it could provide was limited. Mo Ruyue thought for a moment and left a large piece of raw meat beside the black panther as compensation. Then, she retreated to the entrance of the cave and lit two bonfires.

This bonfire could prevent other carnivorous wild beasts from ambushing the black panther when it was unconscious. At most, they would trap it in this cave after it woke up. When the bonfire went out, it could naturally leave.

It was a good thing that it was midsummer and there was plenty of water in the mountains. No matter if it was branches or grass, it was very difficult to burn. So Mo Ruyue was not worried that these two bonfires would burn for a long time or that the sparks would cause a mountain fire.

After doing all this, Mo Ruyue turned to look at the cave again and muttered, “I hope you can live well. That pile of raw meat and bones will be my compensation for your failed hunt tonight.”

After she finished speaking, she used the sleeve arrow and flew down the mountain.

The next morning, Mo Ruyue went up the mountain as usual to hunt some wild game and deliver it to Guanglai tower as promised.

She was also thinking about terminating the contract. Now, providing game once every few days had become a burden for her. After all, there were times when she needed additional consultation, and the time would conflict with the delivery of game. Although she would not be too busy, it was still a little troublesome.
