Chapter 28

Shen Wu slowly released her hand, and the two looked at each other.

Xu Yin: “What is she doing here?”

Shen Wu shook her head slightly: “How would I know?”

The two exchanged glances.

The person was none other than Long Yu Jiao.

Thinking about how she always found treasures in the back mountain, unlike her and Xu Yin, who were unlucky.

The two almost simultaneously raised their chins in the direction of Long Yu Jiao.

The vegetation in Lao Ya Village was dense. In the moment they exchanged glances, the figure had already disappeared into the shade of the trees. If they didn’t follow her, they would be too late.

They immediately started following her.

Both of them moved quietly, Xu Yin holding her bow in a defensive posture.

However,

Long Yu Jiao clearly had something on her mind, and with all the plants in the forest, she didn’t notice them at all.

She walked further and further, Lao Ya Mountain was a cliff, quite large, the further they went, the darker it got, few people went this way.

Long Yu Jiao wasn’t afraid.

Well, she was the author’s favorite daughter, all the good luck was on her side.

It was normal for her not to be afraid.

After walking for about twenty minutes, Shen Wu was a little tired, and finally saw her stop.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head and saw her sneaking into a cave under a cliff.

Shen Wu and Xu Yin almost stopped following her at the same time, quietly watching her, as if she was hiding something, or taking something.

She was busy for a few minutes.

Shen Wu watched from afar as she moved some grass, restoring the scene to its original state, then clapped her hands, she came in a hurry, and left in a hurry.

Well,

Her job as a scorekeeper allowed her to slack off, but she couldn’t leave for too long.

She looked back and forth as she left, checking her surroundings.

She didn’t know if she sensed something wrong, but she glanced in the direction of Shen Wu and Xu Yin. In that instant, Shen Wu had already pulled Xu Yin down and hid behind layers of green leaves.

Long Yu Jiao saw the leaves swaying, but besides the wind blowing, where was anyone?

She was scaring herself.

Thinking of something, she couldn’t help but smile, her steps were incredibly light.

Watching her go away, Shen Wu looked at Xu Yin.

Xu Yin held her bow and arrow, her face calm, “Let’s go see what she was sneaking around for.”

From afar, it was a cliff.

As they got closer, they saw that there was actually a cave. Pulling away the vegetation on top, there was a layer of brown, decayed leaves, but there were obvious signs of human disturbance.

Xu Yin looked at the damp, slightly sticky decayed leaves, and subconsciously frowned.

Shen Wu had already said, “You watch the surroundings, I’ll do it.”

As she spoke, she flipped the leaves, the sticky, damp feeling, as soon as she flipped them, there were woodlice running around in fear.

Even Shen Wu couldn’t help but feel disgusted.

If there was nothing, she would be so angry!

Fortunately, after flipping for a while, she touched a large thing, stringy, Shen Wu glanced at Xu Yin, “Here comes the goods.”

Saying that,

She pulled it out.

Shen Wu’s eyes lit up.

“Xiao Yin Yin, look!”

Xu Yin saw what Shen Wu was holding in her hand, a wild ginseng as thick as two fingers, with a body as long as a palm, yellow in color, with deep spiral patterns, and countless ginseng roots. In terms of shape, it looked like an old man.

“Wild ginseng, it’s not short in years, it’s at least thirty years old.”

Shen Wu gave the ginseng to Xu Yin, and thought for a moment, “Should we tie it up with red string, will it run away?”

Xu Yin rolled her eyes.

“Just kidding.” Shen Wu searched around again, but didn’t find anything, she was about to restore the scene and leave.

Suddenly,

Xu Yin shouted, “Watch out!”

As Xu Yin spoke, Shen Wu also looked up, and instantly, her whole body froze.

A pair of big eyes met a pair of small eyes.

The color blended perfectly into the cliff, at first glance it looked like wood, as thick as a wrist.

Shen Wu closed her eyes and almost fainted. How could Long Yu Jiao come in and find the wild ginseng!

It’s a snake!

She wasn’t this unlucky in her previous life, it must be, it must be the author who is harming her!

There weren’t many things Shen Wu was afraid of in her life, snakes were one, and then there were slimy frogs, loaches, earthworms…

The snake hissed.

Sizzling.

In that instant, Shen Wu’s happy mood completely disappeared, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead…

Suddenly,

A hand suddenly reached out.

At the same time, the snake leaped.

Scared to death, Shen Wu couldn’t make a sound, she opened her mouth in terror, and her body instinctively dodged…

After a while.

Xu Yin said, “It’s okay!”

Shen Wu turned her head, and this scene almost made her faint again.

Xu Yin was holding the snake’s seven inches in one hand, and the snake was wrapped around her arm.

“My god!”

Xu Yin was calm, “Don’t be afraid, it’s not poisonous, it’s a grass snake.”

She said, and slammed it against the cliff.

The snake immediately fainted.

Shen Wu swallowed, and gave Xu Yin a thumbs up, “Xiao Yin Yin, how would I have survived without you!”

“I wouldn’t be able to survive without you either.” Xu Yin was calm, holding the snake, “What should we do with this?”

“Throw it away!” Shen Wu was scared of this thing, she instinctively wanted to throw it away, but as soon as she finished speaking, her reason returned, “Take it down the mountain.”

“This thing is also a dish these days.” Meat, as long as it’s meat, it’s a good thing, snakes are rare.

“Even if we don’t eat it, we can sell it to someone else to eat when we sell the ginseng.”

Xu Yin nodded.

They had already harvested the wild ginseng, they hid it well, and the two of them went down the mountain one after the other.

“Where did you go wild! If you don’t come back, I’m going to look for you. You’re already not working in the fields, and you can’t escape cooking!”

Shen Wu smiled, “Mother, what are you saying? You’re wronging me. I was just looking for some edible wild vegetables, to save some of the family’s vegetables.”

Lu Lao Tai was the most stingy, seeing that Shen Wu really had a handful of wild vegetables in her hand, her face finally looked better.

After a while.

Xu Yin came, Lu Lao Tai was about to say something, Xu Yin took the snake and threw it directly at her!

The snake curved in the air and accurately landed on Lu Lao Tai.

Lu Lao Tai was unprepared, the cold, slippery thing landed on her head with a slap, and then fell into her arms. She instinctively hugged it, and when she looked closely at what was in her hands!!!

Lu Lao Tai was pale with fright, “Ah ah ah!”

“Snake!!!”

She jumped a few times, looking full of vitality, she was so scared she looked younger.

“Grass snake, it’s not poisonous!”

Lu Lao Tai jumped around for a while, finally got rid of the snake. She saw that the stunned snake was already showing signs of waking up after being tossed around.

Xu Yin picked up a stone from the ground and smashed it directly at the snake’s head.

Blood splattered.

When she picked up the stone and threw it away, the snake on the ground was completely cold.

Lu Lao Tai looked at the headless snake on the ground, then looked at Xu Yin, as if she had never known this daughter-in-law before…
