They used swords since they didn’t have enough knives.

Poor them, their once-renowned swords were now relegated to chopping wood and hunting, just like their masters.

“Mother, you guys prepare first; I will go gather some medicinal plants.” Su Qingluo was concerned about her precious medicinal herbs and didn’t want them to be damaged.

“You do your thing; we’ll take care of ourselves.”

Li Xiu’e nodded hastily.

“Okay.”

Su Qingluo responded with a smile, hugging Little Prince as she returned to her room.

“Sister, how long are we going to stay in the cave?”

Little Prince had been listening to the adults talking all along and finally had the chance to ask his question.

“The rain is too heavy; there could be a flood, so we’ll at least stay until the rain stops. ”

Su Qingluo held Little Prince as they entered the room, put him on the kang bed, and began packing her belongings.

“Are there snakes in the cave? Xuan’er is scared.’

Little Prince clung to his sister, his long eyelashes flickering, highlighting his inner anxiety.

“Don’t worry, sister has realgar. If we sprinkle it in the cave, snakes won’t dare to come in.”

Su Qingluo pampered and rubbed Little Prince’s head while taking a packet of medicinal powder from a small box beside the pillow. She opened it with a smile and showed it to him.

“Are snakes afraid of realgar?”

Little Prince glanced timidly at the powder and sniffed. The pungent odor of realgar caused him to sneeze.

“Yes, they are.”

Su Qingluo chuckled, looking at his innocent expression, eyes curved: “During the Dragon Boat Festival, people have a tradition of drinking Realgar Wine to drive away snakes and insects and protect their families.”

“Sister, are there any tigers in the cave? Will tigers eat people?”

Little Prince looked at his sister with wide, wavering eyes, not yet dwelling on the fact that she had left him alone to go to their grandfather’s house. “There are no tigers in the cave. Of course, tigers eat people, but with sister here, they won’t dare.”

Su Qingluo grinned as she put the realgar powder back into the box, carefully examining the medicines inside before putting it away in her Storage Ring.

“Sister, the medicine box is gone.”

Little Prince widened his eyes, searching aimlessly.

“Sister can do magic, making the medicine box disappear.”

Su Qingluo gave a mischievous smile and used a trick to make the box reappear beside the pillow: “Look, I’ve brought it back.”

“Wow! Sister, you’re amazing.”

Little Prince, still an innocent child, was successfully fooled.

“We’re not sure how long we’ll stay in the cave. Sister has to bring a lot of things, so we can’t put them in baskets. That’s why I have to use magic to carry everything. ”

Su Qingluo chuckled as she put away the medicine box again, scanning the room’s furnishings and secretly storing all the household items in her Storage Ring.

Especially clothes, quilts, and bedding, she took everything and properly stored the books, paper, and ink.

After making sure everything was in order, she opened the wardrobe, checked nothing was left, and closed it with satisfaction.

By the time Wang Meng returned, it was almost evening. In order not to waste time, he skipped dinner and took Su Hu, Jifeng, and Jiyu back to the woods with four full bamboo baskets.

Little Kingfisher helped him find a lava cave not far from the riverbank, facing Weishui River. It had a small entrance but was spacious inside.

From the outside, it looked like an inconspicuous little stone cave just big enough for one person to pass through.

The further they went, the wider it became. Ten meters into the cave, the space suddenly opened up. The lava cave, stretching for at least a hundred meters in diameter, was filled with stalactites and had clear water dripping down along the rock wall, seeping into the cracks and flowing underground..
