Although this was what Su Muxue was thinking, recalling Jiang Bai’s previous actions, she ultimately chose to believe him.

Thus, she followed Jiang Bai and walked deeper into the bamboo forest.

During the process of advancing into the depths of the forest, Jiang Bai’s behavior was very strange.

They had encountered wild boars countless times, but Jiang Bai had taken the initiative to avoid the monsters every time.

Wasn’t he going to try leveling up as soon as possible?

Su Muxue’s face showed her puzzlement, but Jiang Bai didn’t say anything and just smiled.

They had arrived at their destination.

In front of them was a gravel wasteland.

Bamboo clusters all around, and only this gravel wasteland was barren and flat.

Different from the appearance of weeds that grew everywhere in the bamboo forest, let alone weeds, there was not even a trace of moss on the rocks in this gravel land.

In the game, there should be something special about such an abnormal place.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Su Muxue was puzzled.

Could there be some hidden treasure here, or was there a hidden quest here that no one had triggered?

Thinking of this, Su Muxue’s heart instantly burned with passion.

However, there were no players around, which made her very suspicious.

At this moment, a few players happened to walk over from afar. They had all reached level 1, but their faces were filled with disappointment.

“Damn it! We shouldn’t have come to this place, it’s a waste of our time. If we had focused on leveling up just now, we would have reached level 3 by now!”

“Tch! I did just say that there’s nothing here and that we shouldn’t waste our time coming here. There are already many who found this place and many who have refuted the rumors on the regional channel. Why didn’t you believe me?!”

“Hey! Look at this place! It’s obviously extraordinary, so I… I thought we could trigger a hidden storyline or find some treasure here!”

“Treasure?” One of the players said disdainfully when he heard his companion’s retort, “If there were hidden treasures in this novice village, would it even be ours to take? Besides, if there really was a hidden quest, it would have been long triggered by someone else. Why else do you think so many are complaining about it on the regional channel? Everyone is thinking the same thing! Let’s go! We have to hurry up and kill monsters to level up. Once we drop behind in terms of level, we’ll be left behind in the entire game!”

With that, the group of players left. When they saw Jiang Bai and Shu Muxue slowly coming over instead, they were all gloating.

After all, watching others return empty-handed was a different experience from returning empty-handed themselves.

With such a slow speed, even if those two rushed to eat shit, they wouldn’t be able to get a warm meal!

To think they wanted to encounter a fortuitous encounter here?

For a moment, the depression in the players’ hearts instantly vanished, and they felt much more comfortable.

Following the departure of this group of players, Su Muxue followed Jiang Bai to the center of this gravel ground.

All sorts of huge rocks were scattered all around.

Jiang Bai scanned his surroundings and fixed his gaze on a huge rock that was half the height of a person.

The huge rock he was looking at seemed very ordinary, just like any other normal reef that one would see.

Yet, Jiang Bai’s gaze was fixed on this reef. To be more precise, his gaze was on the pits on the huge rock.

He stretched out his right hand and slowly touched the pits on the rock, then, he suddenly squeezed hard and pulled.

“Rip~” A sound that sounded like a cloth being torn was heard.

With that, Jiang Bai pulled out a white root that looked like a plant’s root from the hole. It was about half a meter long.

“This! What is this thing?!” Su Muxue was shocked.

This was the first time she had seen a plant that could grow in a rock.

This plant seemed to only consist of its roots. The other end of it was a small gray-black stone.

“Could it be that you came here to get this plant?” Hearing Su Mu Xue’s question, Jiang Bai nodded.

He looked at the system notification in front of him.

[Ding! Congratulations to player “Maise the God” for obtaining the black-iron tier plant material “white stone root”. Upon usage, one may recover a small amount of HP.]

[Ding! Congratulations to player “Maise the God” for obtaining the black-iron tier plant material ‘white stone root’. Your character has obtained 15 EXP.]

“I’m right! It really is this!” Jiang Bai’s eyes lit up when he heard the system notification.
