Chapter 166: Mint Mouthwash Chapter 166

So Bai Junjun, too, drifted to sleep with some regrets.

Having fled for so long, the three of them hadn’t slept so comfortably in a long while, losing their sense of time until the birds chirping woke Bai Junjun as the sun rose.

However, the chirping of this bird was unusually loud, sounding as if hundreds of birds were chattering right beside her ear.

Curious, she stretched her head out to look and saw, right beyond their vine-covered walls, a line of birds flapping their wings and chirping incessantly.

"!!!" Bai Junjun stared blankly at this group of uninvited guests.

It took her a while to remember that she had applied her Special Ability to the vines before going to bed, which ensnared anything living that came close.

Intended purely for safety, she hadn’t expected to inadvertently catch a flock of birds—what a windfall this turned out to be.

Just as Bai Junjun was feeling overjoyed, Bai Sasa and Xiao Shan also woke up, stretching their heads out with her to see what had happened, equally stunned by the wall of birds.

There must have been at least thirty or forty birds!

Why had all these birds gathered together right outside their room like they were holding a convention?

As the two kids stood puzzling over this, Bai Junjun couldn’t help but murmur,

"I heard that fried squab is quite delicious."

"..." Bai Sasa.

"..." Xiao Shan.

"Don’t you think so?" Bai Junjun countered.

"Firstly, they don’t seem to be pigeons, and secondly, we don’t have that much oil," Bai Sasa responded logically.

"Ah..." Bai Junjun glanced at the bird wall: "What a pity..."

Though they lacked oil, Bai Junjun decided to ignore the birds for the time being. Until they could get some oil, they would just let them be... Eventually, they would have oil...

The bewildered birds that had inexplicably lost their freedom stood there dumbstruck; they were just passing by! They had been detained without understanding what was happening.

At that moment, the main culprit was already by the riverbank, washing up.

The morning stream carried a faint mist, slightly sweet, making Bai Junjun feel refreshed as she took a deep breath.

Such an environment was indeed ideal for Metasequoia growth; at least just a night’s soak had completely revitalized Small Cedarwood, even thickening its trunk considerably.

BIn Junjun was quite pleased.

After she finished admiring the beauty of the surroundings, she slowly made her way to the stream to wash up.

Speaking of brushing teeth, only nobles in this area use toothbrushes; country folks typically just chew on a willow twig to clean their teeth.

Without willow twigs here, as Bai Junjun considered the feasibility of using her finger to pick her teeth, Xiao Shan pointed out a cluster of small green leaves keenly.

"This for rinsing the mouth, cool and refreshing!"

Bai Junjun and Bai Sasa walked over to look, and saw the small clump of greenery with dense patterns and tiny fuzz on top.

Upon seeing it, Bai Junjun instinctively blurted out the name, "Silver Elixir Grass?"

"Yeah, it seems so," Bai Sasa also nodded happily.

Silver Elixir Grass is one of the fragrances used by noble ladies to make sachets, naturally bringing a refreshing and invigorating sensation.

Often when there was no way to brush teeth outdoors, this Silver Elixir Grass would be used for mouth rinsing.

Bai Junjun hadn’t expected Xiao Shan, despite his amnesia, to still remember quite a few things he had learned in the jungle.

At least recognizing frogs and this Silver Elixir Grass must be memories embedded deep within, she supposed.

Bai Junjun, following Bai Sasa and Xiao Shan’s lead, picked a handful of mint leaves and chewed them in her mouth. She had just chewed for a moment when a cool sensation shot through her forehead.
