Shi Wei shoved the Cannibal Vine's head into the dirt. The vine, which had been playing dead, instantly pulled itself up. "Yes, yes, Master! I'll take you there right now."
Shi Wei did not revert to his beast form. He carried Su Yu with one arm, following behind the Cannibal Vine with her.
The Cannibal Vine had discovered the plant, which Su Yu had just named 'rice', in a patch of thorns. Within the patch was the footprint of a giant beast, which had been filled with rainwater to become a small puddle.
These rice plants were growing near the small puddle.
The heavy grains weighed their stalks down to the ground, while the thorny vines above formed a protective, web-like canopy over them.
It was likely because of these surrounding thorns that most of the rice plants had been preserved.
However, the thorns were no obstacle for Shi Wei. While still holding Su Yu, he tossed a little flame into the thicket. Under his control, the fire quickly burned the thorns to ash.
