38 Silver Leaf Grass

After reaching a supply agreement for ghost grass, Samwell was in a good mood and warmly invited Nora to stay for lunch, hoping to deepen their relationship.

Nora did not refuse. If she could find a strong backer for the Wandering Crow Tribe, she would certainly not refuse.

When the attendant Kathu presented the food to the table, Nora took off her veil, revealing her delicate face.

Although youth is gone, the charm is still there.

No wonder he was able to captivate the talents of the Seven Kingdoms at Harrenhal.

Looking at Samwell's gaze, Nora smiled gently and explained:

"I usually wear a veil to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"Understandable." Samwell smiled and nodded.

In this red mountain range that follows the laws of the jungle, a woman who is too beautiful will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.

However, now that Nora takes the initiative to take off her veil, she is also expressing her trust in Samwell.

Pointing to the plate in front of him, Samwell said with a smile: "This is the special lunch set for the leader of the Blue Tribe. How do you like it?"

"good."

Although it is called the "Clan Chief's Meal", it is not really sumptuous. It consists of some barbecued meat, wild vegetables, mushrooms, goat's milk, and a plate of wild grass that Samwell does not recognize.

Samwell first picked up the weed and stuffed it into his mouth——

As a man who aspires to taste all the food in Westeros, he must first choose to eat something he doesn't know.

The taste is a bit bitter and spicy on the throat...

Just when Samwell was about to add this weed to his blacklist, he suddenly paused.

Because, there was actually movement in his attribute panel!

Strength increased by 0.01!

Samwell was overjoyed and quickly stuffed the other two weeds on the plate into his mouth.

This made Nora on the side couldn't help but wonder - this lord likes eating grass so much?

If he buys ghost grass for himself, it's not for eating too...

Seeing that the strength attribute increased again, Samwell quickly asked Katu on the side:

"What kind of grass is this?"

"Sir, this is silver-leaf grass."

"Is there more? Give me more!"

"yes."

At this time, Nora reminded:

"Lord Caesar, you'd better not eat too much of this silver-leaf grass."

"Oh why?"

"Because, I suspect it is poisonous."

"Poisonous?" Samwell was slightly startled, but then questioned, "The leader of the blue-skinned tribe still eats it every day?"

"It shouldn't be very toxic. You should be fine if you eat less. But if you eat too much, you may have problems. If you learn more about it, you will know that this silver-leaf grass is a sacred object of the blue-skinned tribe. Only

Only leaders can enjoy it, and occasionally some will be given to tribesmen who have performed meritorious services.

But the leaders who often eat this grass often do not live past the age of forty, and their spirits are somewhat abnormal, and they may even lose control and go crazy."

"Then they still like eating this kind of grass so much?"

"Because this grass can cure some diseases and turn their skin blue, they think it is a gift from the gods."

Samwell frowned.

The skin turns blue and the mind is abnormal, but it can cure some diseases...

It reminded him of a certain substance.

The next moment, he stood up suddenly and walked out quickly.

"Sorry, Mrs. Nora, I suddenly have something important to do. You can have lunch by yourself first."

When I walked to the door, I met Katu who was delivering food.

Samwell grabbed all the silver-leaf grass brought by the other party, stuffed it into his mouth, and asked:

"Where does this silver-leaf grass grow?"

Katu was stunned for a moment, then said:

"There is a small cave just inside the camp."

"Find ten River Bend soldiers to meet me in the cave and bring shovels."

"Yes, sir."

Arriving at the cave Cato mentioned, Samwell indeed saw silver-leaf grass here.

In the slightly dark cave, their leaves shimmer with silvery white light.

After listening to Mrs. Nora's story before, Samwell immediately realized that the leaders of these blue-skinned tribes were probably all suffering from chronic silver poisoning!

Silver has a bactericidal effect, so it can treat some infections, but eating too much can cause heavy metal poisoning and turn people's skin and even blood blue.

But the question is, how come these silver-leaf grasses contain metallic silver?

Samwell guessed that there might be a silver mine buried under the silver-leaf grass!

That's why silver is enriched in this grass, causing chronic silver poisoning among the blue-skinned tribesmen.

But if this is the case, then is the substance that increases one's strength attributes the silver-leaf grass itself? Or is it the silver enriched in it?

Thinking of another substance that can increase strength attributes - golden tail shrimp, Samwell suddenly made a bold guess.

At this time, Cato had already arrived with the soldiers.

"In this place, first pull out the silver-leaf grass, and then dig deeper for me!"

"yes!"

The soldiers responded and immediately went into the hole to dig.

Samwell stood outside, eating silver-leaf grass pulled out by the soldiers and waiting patiently.

The movement here attracted the attention of the savages, especially the savages from the original blue-skinned tribe.

Silver-leaf grass grows in this cave, which they regard as a gift from the gods, so it is often regarded as a holy place by them.

But now, those Riverbend people don't know what to do in their holy land.

This made them both nervous and at a loss.

Of course, no one dared to stand up and protest.

After all, the things in this cave have always been the exclusive property of the leaders of the Blueskin tribe. Now that Samwell has conquered them, the cave belongs to him as well.

Time passed little by little, and Samwell numbly stuffed silver-leaf grass into his mouth. From the bitter taste at the beginning, to now, he can no longer taste it at all.

Moreover, like golden tail shrimp, if you eat too much silver leaf grass, the effect will be reduced.

However, even so, after eating hundreds of silver-leaf grasses, Samwell's strength attribute also increased rapidly, and finally reached 2.13!

By this time, his body's tolerance to silverleaf grass had become very high, and in the end he actually needed to eat five plants to increase his strength by 0.01.

Samwell burped, and his mouth was filled with the bitter taste of grass and wood.

I really can't eat anymore.

Moreover, there are not many silver-leaf grasses left.

You have to save some for seeds, otherwise the people of the blue-skinned tribe will cause trouble if they know that their tribal sacred objects are extinct.

By this time, Nora had finished her lunch and brought her captive tribesmen to say goodbye.

"Okay, Mrs. Nora, I wish you a safe journey. Also, I hope you can find the Ghost Grass as soon as possible."

Nora looked at Samwell's teeth that were stained silvery green by grass juice, and wanted to say something to remonstrate, but hesitated for a moment but did not say anything, and finally just said goodbye politely.

Not long after the Crow Tribe people left, a soldier ran out and said to Samwell:

"Sir, we dug out some ore down there."

Samwell quickly walked into the cave, and sure enough, he saw some lead-gray crystal ore with a metallic luster in a large pit.

Is this a silver mine?

Samwell was a little unsure, the color didn't seem right.

However, considering that this may not be pure silver, that's why it has such a color and appearance.

Samwell turned to the soldiers and ordered:

"Go to Yingzui Island to invite Wei Duo and Busuo. In addition, send people to seal this cave. No one is allowed to approach without my order!"
