Bai Zhi'er had no time to pay attention to him.
The little one discovered a bit of yellow medicine powder by the rockery.
She reached out with her soft fingertips to touch it and then put it under her nose to smell.
The smell seemed very bitter.
Bai Zhi'er's dark, watery eyes looked at the place where the yellow powder appeared.
In the grass beside it, someone had tossed an unnoticed small section of yellow-brown dead branch.
On the tip of the branch was a red berry the size of a grain of rice.
The little one looked at it a few times before confirming that someone must have ground this dried branch-like thing into powder here.
The remaining bits were just thrown into the grass.
She didn't recognize what plant this was, but judging from the smell, it didn't seem like anything good!
Suddenly, Bai Zhi'er noticed that the little snake she had put into the stone cave earlier was slowly coming back.
It seemed to be attracted by the yellow powder.
