Mu Qingcheng slid down more than ten meters. Fortunately, she was tripped by a stone and her sliding speed was slowed down. Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Zi Jin, who fell from the sky, kicked her out.

There was a crevice in the rocks below, three meters long and only half a meter wide, and Mu Qingcheng happened to fall into it.

Fortunately, the cave was spacious and not very deep. It was pitch black all around. Mu Qingcheng was most afraid of the dark, so she secretly took out her flashlight and shone it around. She felt that the cave was strange. Why were the stone walls so dark? Her flashlight couldn't even illuminate it.

"Coal, it's coal, wow! wow! I found coal, I found coal!"

Mu Qingcheng screamed in ecstasy. Her cry attracted Zijin, who lay at the entrance of the gap and called out loudly.

"Miss, ma'am..."

"Zijin, I'm here, I'm here..."

Zijin was so scared that she started crying: "Miss, how are you? Are you hurt? Wuwuwu... It's all my fault. Zijin is so stupid."

Mu Qingcheng was feeling quite happy down there! She thought that Zijin's kick was probably intentional by Heaven. Humph! Humph! That's more like it.

"Silly girl, I'm fine, why are you crying!"

Soon Zhang Fugui came down with his men, and Mrs. Zhang was so anxious that she burst into tears.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

Tsk tsk tsk! Mu Qingcheng wanted to hold her forehead when she heard this. These two people actually dared to steal the credit of the Heavenly Dao.

Zhang Fugui didn't have time to comfort his wife. He quickly untied the rope behind him and threw it into the cave.

"Miss Mu, can you hear me? Don't be afraid, we're going to get you out right now. When you see the rope, tie it around your waist and we'll pull you out."

Mu Qingcheng had a flashlight in her hand, so of course she could see it: "I know!"

Her clear voice came out from the cave. Everyone felt it was strange, but she seemed very happy.

Mu Qingcheng tied one end of the rope around her waist, and Zhang Fugui and several young men worked together to pull her out at the other end.

The moment they saw Mu Qingcheng, everyone was stunned. Who was this? Who was this charcoal-like girl?

At this moment, Mu Qingcheng was black everywhere except her teeth.

At first, the young men were able to hold back their laughter, but later it became too much of a struggle. One of them burst out laughing, and everyone else couldn't help it anymore. Hehehe, hahahaha laughter echoed deep in the mountains.

Madam Zhang stamped her feet in anger: "Stop laughing! How can you, grown men, laugh at a little girl in front of her like this?"

Several young men quickly covered their mouths with apologetic expressions.

Mu Qingcheng didn't care. If she had a mirror to see herself like this, she would probably laugh even more crazily than them. She simply wiped her hands and face and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, she secretly pressed the handkerchief with a stone next to the crack in the rock. She carefully looked at the nearby terrain and marked it before continuing on her way with the others.

Everyone began to admire this little girl again. Even though she was a girl from a farming family and had been used to being beaten since childhood, she was not as calm as Miss Mu when faced with such a situation.

They quickly climbed over the mountain and found a canyon at the foot of the mountain. The canyon was between two big mountains and the temperature was much higher than outside. The canyon was full of greenery and vitality, with wild flowers blooming, like a paradise.

"Wow! It's so beautiful here!"

Mu Qingcheng couldn't help but sigh. After so many twists and turns today, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of her, everything seemed worth it.

"Miss Mu, is this the herb you want?"

Zhang Fugui had already dug up a piece of Isatis root and showed it to Mu Qingcheng.

"Yes, that's it. Be careful when you dig it up and keep the roots intact."

Everyone nodded. They heard that this medicine was very precious, so they had to be careful with it.

The isatis root in this valley was almost connected into a piece, and several people filled their backpacks before going down the mountain.

It is said that it is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. Zhang Fugui fixed one end of the rope to a tree stump.

He let the young men go down first, then Mu Qingcheng and the other two, and finally himself.

Going down the mountain was much faster than going up, and it only took several people an hour and a half to get down the mountain.

Zhang Dazhui and Xu Yongfu saw several people coming down the mountain from afar, and their hearts finally settled down.

Several people got on horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts and headed towards Daxi Village.

Everything went smoothly today. They returned before dark. The village chief, Li Zheng and the elders were waiting at the village entrance, eagerly awaiting their return.

"I'm back, I'm back..."

"Finally I'm back..."

Mu Qingcheng didn't get off the carriage when she arrived at the village. She just asked Feng Zhishang to carry the herbs back to the courtyard first. She didn't need to take care of the herbs and prescribe the medicine.

What was even more exciting than finding isatis root was that she also found coal.

Mu Qingcheng got in the carriage and ran home excitedly. She didn't even bother to wash up and rushed to Yun Qing's door. She really wanted to share with Yun Qing, but she couldn't. Yun Qing was in danger now and she couldn't disturb him.

Mu Qingcheng pressed her face against the door, closed her eyes and told him her joy in her heart.

Yun Qing had already heard her footsteps, those cheerful footsteps, and she wished she could throw herself into his arms. He saw her reflection in the door, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Yes, he saw it, he could finally see again.

In the evening, after Feng Zhishang finished taking care of Yunqing, he went directly to the courtyard to improve the new prescription, adding isatis root. However, this prescription was only in the trial stage, and the efficacy would have to wait until tomorrow to know.

Feng Zhishang simply lived in the courtyard, as he wanted to keep an eye on the changes in the villagers' condition.

Moyun, Mobing, and Mofeng all returned around dusk. They reported that many villages around Daxing Town had patients, but they hadn't received enough attention. There were no cases further east, and none to the west, but the further south you went, the more patients there were.

This news clearly came from the south. Medicines were already hard to come by in Chunshui Town in the south. Fortunately, Mo Bing and Mo Feng had gone to other places and bought a lot of herbs.

Mu Qingcheng was worried. She thought that the local government might not have taken the situation seriously enough. She had to remind the government to strengthen protection and not let the epidemic continue to spread northward.

"Tomorrow we'll see if Feng Zhishang's prescription works. If it does, send someone to deliver it to the government immediately."

Mo Yu and the others nodded. Their Master Mu was just like them, with a broad mind.

"I have another good news to tell you. I found coal."

"what!"

"what?"

"What……"

Several people looked at Mu Qingcheng in astonishment. Could it be that their master Mu could tell where the coal was just by counting with his fingers at home?

Mu Qingcheng didn't care how surprised they were. She told them in detail about her experience of picking herbs today, especially the location where she fell into the cave.

The more they listened, the more they felt a chill on their backs!

It’s over, it’s over, I’m afraid I can’t escape this beating.
