"It's the coal snake! A drop of its venom can kill a ferocious beast. Snake gall is a good thing. Since I encountered it, it's convenient to catch it."
Shangguan Wanrong murmured, fixing her eyes on the shiny black snake. At the next moment, she smeared the medicine in her hands, then swung forward using the rope's force and grabbed the snake's head in an instant.
At the same time, Feng Jiu, who was waiting above, heard the voice coming from below. Although the sound was not so clear amidst the wind, she was not worried knowing that her mother was alright.
After waiting for about the time it took an incense to burn, she sensed the rope shaking. She guessed that her mother had already collected the herb. So, she quickly retrieved the rope and pulled her mother back from the precipice.
About an hour or so, she was pulled up from the bottom. Feng Jiu came up to see that her mother had no wound except for her clothes getting dirty from friction. She was relieved.
