The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool

When Ye Xiuying heard about the deep mountains, her brows immediately furrowed. The deep mountains were not a place for women to go. After all, Qingcheng was only a 16-year-old girl, so how could she have that much physical strength? They were lucky to have picked that wild ginseng before, but luck doesn't always happen.

Although there had been no tigers or other ferocious beasts in the back hills of Yueya Village for decades, what if they ran into a wild boar, snake, or insect? Even if they could pick something good, Ye Xiuying didn't want Wen Qingcheng to take the risk again.

"No, Qingcheng, don't go. Mom is in good health now and doesn't need to take those medicines. We can live a safe life as a family if we save our money." Ye Xiuying's face was full of worry.

"Mom, if you're worried, let Chuyi go with me. I will be back before dark."

When Zicheng heard that Chuyi was going, he also clamored to go along. Zicheng had already put Chuyi and him on the same level. After all, Chuyi's intelligence was no different from that of a six-year-old child.

"Okay, be careful, don't go into the mountains, stay away from the cliffs, take some realgar powder, watch your step, if there are strangers..."

Ye Xiuying was about to give more instructions, but Wen Qingcheng interrupted her immediately. "Mom, I understand. I will go early and come back early."

After that, he led two figures, one large and one small, towards the back mountain. The gray rocks behind the Crescent Village formed a mountain range. Wen Qingcheng firmly believed that there must be good medicinal materials in such a densely vegetated place.

As soon as they reached the foot of the mountain, Zicheng was so tired that he stuck out his tongue, but he still jogged from time to time to catch up with Wen Qingcheng and the others.

"Zicheng, if you are tired, go back. We still have a lot of mountain roads to go." Wen Qingcheng held up a castor leaf as a parasol, turned to Zicheng, who was walking with his arms drooping and swaying.

"I want to go on the first day of the new year, too." When Zicheng heard that he was asked to go back, he immediately took a deep breath and trotted to catch up.

Wen Qingcheng is bringing Zicheng with her this time and has no plans to go into the mountains again. She can look around nearby to see if there are any mountain products she can bring back.

"Chuyi, you carry him on your back."

"Oh." Chuyi bent down obediently. Zicheng suddenly became energetic. He jumped onto Chuyi's broad back and hugged his neck, like a koala hanging on a tree.

The further up the mountain you go, the denser the woods become. There are rustling sounds in the forest, and the trees block out the sun. The forest is deep and mysterious, with cool breezes blowing, and there is quite a scary atmosphere.

“Ga-ga-ga…”

Then there was the sound of wings fluttering, blowing up leaves and broken branches.

Wen Qingcheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of colorful pheasants flying out with a "puff". They had long tail feathers and bright colors, which were very beautiful.

"I haven't eaten chicken for a long time." Zicheng said, pursing his lips.

Wen Zicheng also likes pheasants, but in a different way, he likes to eat them. Wen Qingcheng suddenly reacted and took out a small crossbow from the space.

In the apocalypse, there is always the risk of being attacked by zombies, so she carries weapons with her, but guns are not allowed, but they are enough to shoot these pheasants.

Unfortunately, the pheasants had already spotted them and flew away in all directions. Wen Qingcheng felt a little regretful. At this moment, a fatter pheasant flew out from the bushes. Because of its plump body, it did not fly high.

"I'm sorry." Wen Qingcheng raised the small crossbow and shot it to the target.

"Sister is so awesome!" Wen Qingcheng exclaimed happily, and she and Chuyi ran over one after the other to pick up the pheasant.

Wen Qingcheng unexpectedly harvested a pheasant, and was very satisfied, planning to go down the mountain and go home. After all, they were in the wild now. It was okay for Chuyi and herself, but they had a six-year-old child with them. If there was a wild animal, they could run away, but it was not certain that they could run away with the child.

Although she seldom set foot into the deep forest in her previous life, she had common sense in this regard. Such dense forests were most likely to be haunted by wild beasts. Behind the seemingly calm appearance, there might be many pairs of wild beasts staring at you. When you turn around and relax your vigilance, they will pounce on you and bite you to death before you can react.

Wen Qingcheng still felt a little scared when she thought about this. "Let's go back."

The three of them walked down the mountain in silence, and suddenly there was a rustling sound in the bushes beside them. Wen Qingcheng immediately became alert, and Zicheng's small body pressed tightly against Wen Qingcheng.

"Don't be afraid. Chuyi, protect Zicheng." Wen Qingcheng said softly.

"Oh." Chu Yi responded, and with his ape-like arms, he embraced Wen Qingcheng behind him.

Zicheng, who was standing by, looked up at Chuyi and thought: Sure enough, my wife is more important than my brothers. Well, my sister is the most important.

"What's wrong, sister?" Wen Zicheng saw that his elder sister looked nervous and suddenly acted as if facing a formidable enemy, so he couldn't help but become nervous as well.

"There's something in the grass." Wen Qingcheng said softly.

"Could it be another pheasant?" Wen Zicheng murmured.

"Be careful."

Wen Zicheng stared at the direction of the sound with wide eyes. In the blink of an eye, a four-hoofed animal with long fangs suddenly jumped out.

"Ah——" Zicheng screamed and pressed his whole body against Chuyi.

But Chuyi was not frightened at all, he squatted down slightly and took a horse stance, and pushed Wen Qingcheng and Wen Zicheng behind him.

Wen Qingcheng held a small crossbow in her hand and shot at the beast, hitting it right in the head and killing it instantly.

"Big sister, you are so awesome, you hit the target." Wen Zicheng ran over with starry eyes.

Chuyi looked in the direction where the beast fell and walked over to check. "What is this?" Chuyi pointed at the beast lying in the grass, turned his head, and asked curiously with a pair of big black eyes.

Wen Qingcheng walked over to take a look and was immediately delighted. It turned out to be a musk deer, also known as a mountain donkey, a herbivorous mammal that would not attack humans. Because its abdomen contains a famous Chinese medicine - musk, it is also called a fragrant musk deer.

Wen Qingcheng pressed under Xiang Zhangzi's navel and fumbled for a while.

"What are you doing."

Wen Qingcheng turned around and saw two curious faces, one big and one small. Chuyi scratched the back of his head and asked foolishly.

"Looking for musk." Wen Qingcheng answered briefly and then lowered her head and started searching again.

"Sister, what is musk? Is it the scent of soap?" Wen Zicheng leaned closer, "Is it here?"

Wen Zicheng pointed to the place where Wen Qingcheng pressed. At this time, Chuyi noticed that Wen Qingcheng had a sharp knife in his hand since some time ago.

Wen Qingcheng planned to take out the musk first. Musk is a secretion from the crotch of male musk deer. It has a special fragrance and can be used as medicine. It is also a precious spice. Wearing it for a long time can allow the fragrance to enter the body and form your own body fragrance. Many dignitaries and famous prostitutes in brothels spend a fortune on it.

Wen Qingcheng was not particularly familiar with the prices of medicinal materials in the Great Qi Dynasty, but one thing was certain: since musk was an animal-based medicinal material and could not be grown on a large scale like plants, it was relatively scarce, and therefore the price would not be too low.

"Zicheng, we are going to get rich."

"Sister, how much can this musk sell for?"

"you guess."

"One hundred wen?" Zicheng and Chuyi looked at each other, their eyes sparkling.

"Please open up. This thing is a medicinal herb and a spice. It's very valuable."

"How much?" Sha Chuyi and Zicheng asked in unison, their faces full of anticipation.
