The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it

It is the hottest summer day. Various wild fruit trees in the mountains are laden with fruits, like a generous gift from nature. Most of them are in the delicate stage of transitioning from green to mature. The air is filled with a faint fruity fragrance, which is the most primitive and purest taste of nature.

It seems that this deep mountain is indeed sparsely populated, with almost no traces of human activities. Only the wonders of nature are silently telling the story of time.

Su Yu couldn't help but feel regretful that no one knew about the treasures in the mountain and they were left to fend for themselves.

She took out a bright red cloth from her waist and carefully tied it to the branch of the fruit tree, using it as a signpost to guide her in the direction of return and as a mark to pick the fruit after it was fully ripe.

There were many ripe wild berries scattered on the ground, with bright colors, like rubies inlaid among the green leaves, but most of them had been eaten by greedy small animals, leaving traces of being eaten.

Su Yu had no appetite for this. She knew that these gifts from nature should belong to the real owner of this forest.

Continuing forward, Su Yu suddenly saw a lush wild mulberry forest in front of him. The shiny black mulberry fruits were like strings of crystal agate, hanging heavily on the branches. The mulberries scattered on the ground formed a thick "carpet", obviously having been ripe for a long time.

When Su Yu saw this scene, his eyes flashed with surprise. He happened to be thirsty at the moment, and the mulberries on the tree were undoubtedly the best thirst-quenching product given by nature.

She put down her belongings and nimbly climbed up to the treetop. Her slender fingers were like those of a nimble squirrel. She couldn't wait to pick a few mulberries and put them into her mouth.

In an instant, the sweet and sour juice exploded in the mouth like fireworks, and the overflowing sweetness and slight sourness intertwined into a wonderful symphony that was unforgettable.

Su Yu narrowed her eyes in satisfaction, a smile appearing at the corners of her lips. She had only been here for a few days, and although the meals cooked by Jiang Ziling were rich and delicious, she had never tasted such fresh and pure fruits.

At this moment, these small mulberries are undoubtedly the most delicious delicacy in the world to her.

Only after he had eaten to his heart's content did Su Yu slowly come down from the tree, the scent of mulberries still lingering on his fingertips.

Considering that mulberries are not easy to carry and are easy to rot, she decided to pick some here before going down the mountain and bring them back for Jiang Ziling and Xier to taste the unique flavor from the mountains.

Before he knew it, the sun was already high overhead. The sunlight was hot and dazzling, reminding Su Yu that it was already noon.

However, the thatched hut was still nowhere to be seen, and she realized that she had unknowingly gone deep into the forest. The surrounding vegetation became increasingly dense, and the sunlight was gradually blocked by the dense tree canopy, leaving only mottled light and shadows dancing under her feet.

Su Yu understood that she needed to be more cautious and alert as she moved forward, because unexpected dangers and challenges might be lurking in the unknown mountains.

Su Yu gently put down the kettle, letting the sweet liquid slide down his throat and moisten his dry mouth.

She sat on the soft fallen leaves, and the short rest allowed her to recall those dusty memories.

Thinking back to her previous life, whenever she and her master were about to set foot into the mountains, her master would always face the majestic mountains solemnly, worship the mountain god devoutly, and pray for the safe return of the master and disciple.

At that time, Su Yu was still young and frivolous and ignorant. He always thought that his master was too superstitious and that modern equipment and a cautious attitude were enough to deal with the unknown risks in the mountains.

Even when she went into the mountains for the last time, she secretly left early when her master was not paying attention.

However, the cruelty of reality ruthlessly shattered her self-confidence. Due to a moment of carelessness, she lost her precious life. Until this moment, she traveled to this strange world in another identity.

Su Yu stared at the deep and endless forest ahead, feeling deep regret and awe in his heart.

She understood that the traditions and rules passed down by their ancestors all contained wisdom accumulated over the years.

She slowly bent her knees, put her palms together, and looked at the mountains with a firm and pious look, as if she were a master, whispering to the mountains: "Lord Mountain God, today I am going into the mountains alone to collect herbs. I beg you to protect me from wild animals and keep me safe along the way."

After she finished speaking, she kowtowed three times deeply towards the mysterious mountains, and each kowtow was accompanied by her inner cherishment for life and awe for nature.

After standing up, Su Yu carried the bamboo basket that carried his hope on his back, held the wooden stick for self-defense in his hand, and walked into the forest.

She carefully pushed aside the dense branches and leaves along the way, and looked for precious herbs among the green grass with her sharp eyes.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, sprinkling on her focused face. The breeze blows by, causing the ends of her hair to dance gently, as if she is having a silent communication with nature.

Time passed quietly in the tranquility of the forest. After about an hour, Su Yu was already panting, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

She looked around. Although herbs were everywhere, they were all common varieties with limited value. They could not be exchanged for a few copper coins to supplement her life.

Disappointed, she found a sturdy old tree to sit under, took out her water bag, tilted her head back and took a few gulps. The cool water seemed to instantly dispel her fatigue and awaken the fighting spirit in her heart.

"How could there be no rare and exotic flowers and plants in this desolate and uninhabited mountain?"

Su Yu pondered secretly and looked towards the depths of the dense forest in the distance again.

Suddenly, a sharp pain came from my buttocks, as if I had sat on a rock.

She frowned, moved her body, and casually brushed away the fallen leaves beneath her.

However, this wave caused the skull of an animal to roll out, rolling forward until it disappeared from sight.

A chill suddenly rose from his spine, Su Yu's hair stood up instantly, his heart beat like a drum, and his alert nerves were instantly stretched to the extreme.

The lonely skull was obviously brought here by a wild beast, which meant that she had unknowingly entered the beast's territory.

Su Yu was fully aware that he was in a dangerous situation at the moment and being alone, safety was the top priority.

She looked up at the mountain that seemed increasingly large and deep, and deep regret welled up in her heart. It was unwise to venture into the mountains alone today. The most urgent thing was to return as soon as possible and explore again after being fully prepared.

Just as Su Yu was about to turn around and leave, the corner of her eye inadvertently swept across the direction where the skull rolled down, and a bright red color instantly caught her attention.

She opened her eyes wide, staring at the red color in disbelief. It turned out to be a red Ganoderma lucidum!

She was so excited that she almost jumped up. Such an adventure was simply a gift from God!

In order to facilitate future searches, Su Yu took off a piece of bright red cloth from his waist and carefully tied it around the tree trunk. This was a customary mark used by herbalists, meaning that there was Ganoderma growing here and it might regrow next year.

Then she squatted down and carefully examined these treasures of nature.
