With one hand she heals, and the other hand she kills, the princess vows to rule the world!

As they stepped into the dense forests of Mangshan, the rich fragrance of grass and trees in the air invaded everyone's noses and mouths, and the coolness and freshness of the breeze made everyone feel refreshed.

"The spiritual energy in this mountain is so rich!"

Cheng Qi breathed deeply, feeling much more relaxed. The fatigue from the previous two days seemed to have mostly disappeared.

"Isn't this already a deeper part of Mang Mountain?" Zhang Zhirou walked beside Shu He, followed by a group of armored soldiers.

"It's still early." Shu He had been here once, and they had just entered the mountains.

People often come to the edge of the mountain, so although there are many medicinal herbs, most of them have been destroyed and are not in good condition.

Now that they are here, they must look for the most effective herbs.

Nan Qibei followed behind Shu He and Zhang Zhirou, not too far away, and neither of them spoke.

Nanqi felt uncomfortable. This was the first time he saw Beiji so cold and silent.

"Beiji, don't blame the master. The master was just angry and spoke a little harshly..."

He had also been scolded by his master and knelt down when he was living in Anheju in Yuancheng! However, he did not dare to tell Beiji about this.

Beiji remained silent, his expression calm, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Everyone, watch your step. Even though it's winter, there are countless snakes, insects, rats, and ants in the mountains, and most of them are poisonous. If you get bitten by anything, be sure to tell me or Doctor Cheng. Got it?"

Shu He's voice rang out, and everyone nodded in response.

The further we went into the forest, the dimmer the light became. The dense canopies and branches of the trees blocked all the light from the sky, and only a few strong rays of sunlight pierced through the foliage and pierced in from above.

The air gradually became thicker with the smell of rotten wood and leaves, and the snow beneath my feet was disappearing, leaving a soft and sticky feeling when I stepped on it.

Su Lanzhi slipped and was about to fall down the slope.

Seeing this, Shu He quickly stepped forward, grabbed the boy's arm and pulled him back.

"Are you okay?" Shu He frowned slightly and waited until he stood firm before letting go of his hand.

In fact, although Su Lanzhi looks young, she is actually not short. She is half a head taller than Shu He.

"Thank you, Sister He. I, I'm fine." Su Lanzhi looked at the frail body that was still trembling, with a look of shock on her face.

Nanqi happened to see this scene and immediately curled his lips. "Why does this woman need us to protect her? She's so brave, she should protect others!"

"And that kid, what's going on? He's so big, but he's like a little girl? He can't even carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands, so why did he come up this mountain?"

After hearing what Nanqi said, Beiji's eyes couldn't help but fall on Su Lanzhi.

Cheng Qi took two steps closer to Su Lanzhi and couldn't help but scold with a smile, "You are such a sweet talker, you're calling me sister right after just meeting me?"

After hearing this, Su Lanzhi's face changed drastically, and panic appeared on her face. She kept explaining, "Brother Cheng, I, I am..."

"Okay, I get it. You just admire Madam He, right?" Cheng Qi patted his shoulder to comfort him, as if understanding. Then he explained to Shu He, "Madam He, please don't mind. Lanzhi listened to Miss Zhang and I talk about your heroic deeds last night and was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night! If he offended you, please don't blame him."

Zhang Zhirou also came over and said with a smile, "Lanzhi has good taste. Like me, she admires Sister He immensely!"

Shu He looked at Su Lanzhi. He lowered his head, his cheeks flushed, and with that shy expression, he looked like a delicate and tempting young lady.

Shu He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Is it really that serious?"

She was even accused of being irresponsible today! Unexpectedly, in unknown places, there are still people who admire her.

"Of course!" Su Lanzhi, who was originally shy, immediately responded when she heard this. His bright eyes seemed to be filled with stars, shining only for one person.

"I only regret that I wasn't able to climb the city wall and witness your grace!" Perhaps feeling that his words were a little inappropriate, he added firmly: "Lanzhi swears that I will become a soldier as courageous, capable, and responsible as you in the future!"

A trace of embarrassment passed through Shu He's head. She really couldn't accept this socially humiliating scene.

"Huh! A grown man actually takes a woman as his role model and brazenly says it in public. What a huge ambition!"

Nanqi couldn't stand it any longer and swaggered through the gap between Shu He and Su Lanzhi. The sarcasm on his face was painful to the eyes.

The smile on Cheng Qi's face froze, and he felt a little unhappy. However, he now knew Nan Qi's identity, so even if he was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to express anything.

Seeing Su Lanzhi's face turn red and white due to Nanqi's ridicule, he felt sorry for her. He patted her shoulder and said softly, "It's okay, don't worry about it. People like us don't have to have too lofty ambitions. It's enough for us to follow Lady He's example and achieve what she has done!"

After all, the universe is full of countless faces, and it's impossible to expect everyone to be exceptional, nor is it possible to expect everyone to possess wisdom. Most people don't need to be too hard on themselves.

Su Lanzhi clenched her hands together, showing her panic.

Shu He glared at Nan Qi and then said, "Lanzhi, don't pay attention to that idiot. He's no match for a woman!"

Nanqi turned around abruptly, furious.

Wasn't this woman going too far? She actually called him "silly" in front of outsiders! He was the dignified General Nan, didn't he have any dignity?

What do you mean he's no match for a woman? Yesterday, he even knocked Zhenli, the leader of the four generals, away! Even though Zhenli was injured, he was still Zhenli!

If it weren't for the fact that she fought to the death to defend the city the night before, he would have made her see how powerful he was!

He had a cold face and looked very arrogant. "I don't argue with women about right and wrong!"

After saying that, he turned around and left, but as if he was still not satisfied, he turned back and said to Shu He fiercely, "If you encounter danger later, don't ask me to save you!"

"With Beiji here, do I still need your help?" Shu He said to him with a smile.

Nanqi turned around and glared at her again, then walked away angrily. At this moment, a spider as big as a palm crawled out from somewhere in front of his feet. As if to vent his anger, he kicked the spider away.

Beiji's expression changed slightly, and his wooden face finally regained some warmth.

He walked closer to Shu He and said to the soldiers behind him, "Insects and ants are starting to appear. Everyone, be careful."

"Yes!"

Most of these soldiers were from the Chengfeng Army. Because the garrison was severely damaged by Shen Chuan's army, there were few good fighters left in the camp.

The leader was Zhang Zhiyi's captain, Xu Yan, who was skilled in horseback archery. He was holding a large black bow, a basket of arrows slung over his waist, and was following closely behind Bei Ji.

The bow that Shu He used on the city wall the night before was handed to him by him. However, at that time, Shu He did not see his face clearly, so he did not recognize him.

But he recognized Shu He. That face, that grace, he would never forget...

After entering the depths of Mang Mountain, huge tree roots crisscross and move freely on the ground and underground.

Countless giant trees stand tall, with vines with dense branches and leaves clinging to their trunks. With the passage of time, they cover the original appearance of the trees and wantonly flaunt their grace, looking both domineering and proud.

Many plants that cannot be seen from the outside world began to grow in the dense jungle.

There are huge bright red mushrooms, blood bubble vines as thick as arms, and even blood-red dogwoods the size of palms...
