So, he went forth and plucked two large ones.
Then he came to a small creek, washed them clean, and handed them to him, "The weather's cold, you can't drink the river water. Try eating these, they can quench your thirst too."
"What are these?"
"You haven't tried them before, just taste them and you'll know."
Luo Shunchen looked curiously at the purple-red beetroot, imitated Ji Ruyan's actions by peeling off a layer of skin before taking a bite.
He found it extremely sweet, indeed a good way to replenish his strength.
After spending the whole day wandering around Stone Mountain, and having to constantly mind if the stones underfoot were slippery, having this sweet thing was quite nice.
Ji Ruyan chomped down a few times, quickly finishing a beetroot.
"You wait here for a bit, I'll be back soon," she said to him.
Since they couldn't find Star Soul Grass here and seeing how worn out Luo Shunchen was, she felt it wouldn't be good to push him further.
