The eldest lady is both a doctor and a warrior, they love her so much

The Tianshan Mountains are located in the northwest of Daxia and were once the territory of the Northern Rong.

Hua Xin and Nangong Ziqiu traveled for about three months before they arrived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, a small village called Rabbit Village.

Most of the people in Rabbit Village are from Beirong, and they all have rough, dry skin and dark complexion.

Suddenly, two fair-skinned and beautiful people came, and everyone came out to watch the fun.

"Hey, how come these two beautiful kids come to our village?"

"Who knows? Maybe he just comes here to have fun!"

"Play? What are you going to do in this godforsaken place?"

"Pfft, if you don't know how to talk, don't talk. I think there's definitely money to be made."

"Make money? What kind of money? I won't tell you. I'm going to the mountains to hunt, or my wife will scold me again."

"Go, go, go, go faster! I'm happy that there's one less person to compete with me."

The person who spoke was a thin boy. He wiped his nose, pulled his patched hat, and walked towards the two people at the entrance of the village.

It was already October, the golden autumn, but Rabbit Village had already entered winter early.

There are snow-capped mountains here that have never melted for thousands of years. Even at the foot of the mountain, you can still feel the cold.

Hua Xin and Nangong Ziqiu had bought winter clothes in the last town. Now they wrapped themselves up tightly, with only their faces exposed.

"Hey, two distinguished guests, are you looking for a place to rest?"

The boy spoke Daxia language awkwardly, but Hua Xin and Nangong Ziqiu still understood him.

"Is the head of your village here?"

Nangong Ziqiu spoke.

"Looking for the village chief? I'll take you there, but you have to give me some money." The young man stretched out his hand and gestured.

Hua Xin's face turned cold, and she pulled Nangong Ziqiu to avoid him.

"Why spend money? We can always find it if we walk in ourselves. How can we be fooled by this little brat?"

"Who's the little brat? I'm sixteen years old!" the boy shouted loudly with his neck stiffened.

"Sixteen? You look at most twelve."

Hua Xin shook her head and continued walking forward.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of paying attention to him, the boy followed him.

"I don't want much, just give me two cents, I just want to buy a meat bun for my sister."

The boy said pitifully.

"Take us to see the village chief first."

Not to mention two cents, even one penny should be spent wisely.

This place has only been returned to Da Xia for a short time, so who knows what the customs are like here? Hua Xin didn't dare to agree to it casually.

"Row."

The Rabbit Village as a whole is very dilapidated; even the village chief's house is just a slightly larger mud house.

When the young man led the two people here, the village chief was basking in the sun in the yard and smoking a pipe.

"This is the village chief's house. Please be kind, my two guests. I don't want much, just two cents."

"Here is five cents, no more." Nangong Ziqiu handed the young man five copper coins. This was the change from when he bought winter clothes in the town. Otherwise, they really couldn't come up with such a small amount of silver.

Hua Xin didn't say anything, but looked at the village chief who was basking in the sun.

"Village Chief, I want to ask you something!"

Hua Xin walked towards the village chief with a clear voice, and the village chief, who had originally squinted his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes.

What came into view was a fair-skinned and beautiful girl. He sat up straight, coughed a few times and asked, "What do you want to ask?"

“Is there anyone from your village who goes up the mountain?”

"Yes, most of them are people who go up the mountain to hunt, but now it's too cold, so not many people go up the mountain. Ah Mao's family at the west end of the village often goes up the mountain." The village chief paused after speaking and asked curiously, "What are you doing up the mountain? It's freezing cold, it's not fun!"

"We're just having fun. We've seen snow before! I thought if there's anyone in the village who's familiar with the way up the mountain, it would be best if they could lead the way."

Hua Xin was telling the truth. As for the search for the Tianshan Snow Lotus, she would naturally not tell anyone about it.

"There's A-Mao's house at the west end of the village, you guys go over there!"

"Thank you, village chief."

Hua Xin and Nangong Ziqiu left the village chief's house. The village chief, who was originally sitting, suddenly stood up and rushed to the door.

"Good boy, here comes the business, I hope Ah Mao can make more money."

The village chief tapped the sole of his shoe with his pipe, squinted his eyes, took a puff, and blew a puff of smoke at the backs of the two men.

"Xinxin, why do we have to go through the village? Can't we just go up the mountain?"

"It's better to have someone to lead the way than to be in the dark, right?"

"This can be considered a reason, but it's not right." Nangong Ziqiu followed Hua Xin, paying attention to the heads sticking out from the cracks in the door from time to time. The feeling of being watched was not good.

"Old man, can I ask where A-Mao's home is?"

Hua Xin suddenly shouted towards a courtyard. The old man in the courtyard was obviously stunned, and then he mumbled something. Soon a younger man ran out of the house and said to Hua Xin: "My mother doesn't speak Daxia language. The Ah Mao family you are looking for is behind the big rock in front, the last family."

"Thank you, uncle!"

Hua Xin tugged at Nangong Ziqiu's sleeve, and the two quickened their pace and soon went behind the big rock.

"This village is a bit weird!"

Nangong Ziqiu whispered, "Did you see something and come in on purpose?"

"What do you think I am? We are here to look for herbs, not to solve a case. These people are from the North Rong, so it's normal for them to be a little hostile to us."

Hua Xin said this, but she was actually worried.

Hua Moxuan won the battle and the court sent new officials, but the original local officials of Beishu, Beibin and Beishan were still Beirong people. There was no other way. Many government orders could not be issued due to the language barrier. However, it takes time for the two sides to run in. Now it has only been a few months, and there will be no quick results.

To put it bluntly, it is dangerous for Hua Xin and his team to come to the northernmost part at this time.

As they were talking, the two men arrived at the last house. Before they could call for help, a tall and strong man came out of the house, dragging a snow wolf in his hand and was about to skin it in the yard.

"Hello, is this A-Mao?"

The man in the yard glanced at the two people outside the door, said "hmm", raised his knife and chopped off the snow wolf's head. Hot blood spurted out immediately, and the man neatly caught it in a jar.

"We are going to Tianshan Mountain. Can you lead the way? The reward is negotiable."

Hua Xin was not frightened by the scene before her. On the contrary, she was very curious about how this man would skin her.

A-Mao was a little surprised that this little girl was not afraid of such a bloody scene.

"Ten taels, not even one tael less. If you agree, we'll set out tomorrow morning."

"What? Ten taels? You rob..."

Nangong Ziqiu almost jumped up when he heard Ah Mao's offer. They were not short of money, but they didn't want to be sucked!
