An Honglei listened to his father and found a tree stump to study.

Surprised, he said, "Really? Sister, come and see, the growth rings of this tree are different in the two directions."

"It's the south because it's dense here." An Xueyan had never studied these things before, so she looked at them very seriously.

Next, while walking, he observed the several methods his father had mentioned, and An Honglei looked at his father with admiration.

Asked: "Dad, is there any other way?"

"You can also look at the direction of the North Star at night. It is located due north."

I silently memorized all this knowledge.

An Qingping also pointed out some poisonous plants that he knew to the brother and sister, and An Xueyan recognized that some of them were medicinal herbs.

She took the opportunity to explain the specific medicinal properties to her father and brother, and also dug up the herbs and took them back. Of course, she couldn't avoid storing some of them in the space under the cover of her father.

"Sister, is that Ganoderma lucidum?" An Honglei didn't know many medicinal herbs, but he was familiar with several precious and valuable ones. Isn't this what he found?

Both father and daughter looked in the direction and saw several Ganoderma lucidum growing on the top of a tree not far away.

She gave her brother a thumbs up and said, "Brother, you are so lucky. It was worth going into the mountains today."

"Hehehe, I just saw them randomly. Let's pick them up and make medicine for you, my sister."

"We don't need so many. These things are decades old. We can sell some and keep some." The key is to save more money in the next few years so that my father can make more money in the future.

And she also has a room to cheat. As long as there are seeds, these medicinal herbs will not be lacking.

"Then listen to your sister. I'll use the money to buy her clothes and delicious food."

"I don't want it. I have enough clothes to wear. When the time comes, I will save all the money for my brother. Our family needs to save a lot of money."

"Why?" An Honglei wondered.

"When you have money in the future, you can go to the city to find a job and live in a big house there. All of these require money, so we must work hard to save money together. Brother, let Dad save your money too."

"Okay, but you also get half of this money, sister. Let's work together to save money."

An Xueyan did not refuse. Their family would definitely not be short of money in the future, so there was no need to worry too much. She would also be good to her brother.

Smiling, he watched the brother and sister discuss their conversation. He felt relieved that his son, as an older brother, was good to his sister and that his children were not the kind of people who would give up family affection for a little money.

A few people picked all the Ganoderma lucidum. Seeing that there were still some spores on some plants, An Xueyan collected them separately. She remembered that Ganoderma lucidum cultivation relies on spores.

"This should be the tiger's territory. Be careful, let's go around it." An Qingping pointed to the traces on the ground and reminded.

As they walked, the three of them collected medicinal herbs that were not available outside and also caught two pheasants.

After leaving the tiger's territory, they encountered wolves.

To be precise, it was an abandoned old wolf.

An Qingping did not choose to take action, but instead asked his son to kill the wolf, which might be cruel for an ordinary eight-year-old child.

However, An Honglei is not an ordinary child. Since he has chosen his goal of becoming a soldier and his strength has been improved after practicing martial arts secrets, he must adapt to the various environments he will face in the future as soon as possible.

"Come on, brother!" An Xueyan could only cheer her brother on from the side.

An Honglei looked at his son and encouraged him, "Son, be careful. You are the best."

There was a gleam of confidence in An Honglei's eyes, and he faced the wolf that was ready to attack with full fighting spirit.

The old wolf's eyes were filled with murderous intent and contempt. It looked at the little guy walking towards it with an indifferent attitude.

It's as if to say that although I'm old, I can still bite this little thing's neck off with one bite.

The old wolf took the lead in attacking, leaping towards An Honglei. An Honglei dodged the old wolf's attack by moving sideways with a dagger in his hand.

At the same time, he slashed at the old wolf's waist and abdomen with his backhand. The sharp dagger cut through the old wolf's skin, but did not penetrate too deeply due to the distance.

The pain made the old wolf realize that this little creature, whom it didn't take seriously, also posed a threat to it.

Baring its sharp fangs, the wolf stared coldly at An Honglei with its angry eyes, searching for weaknesses and opportunities in its prey.

Being stared at by the wolf with such cold and ruthless eyes, An Honglei, who was facing it for the first time, still felt a little scared.

But when I thought about my father and sister being by my side, I felt more courageous.

He clenched the dagger in his hand and attacked the old wolf. The old wolf made a move at this time, biting An Honglei's arm with its fangs.

An Xueyan covered her mouth tightly as she watched from the side, not daring to make a sound for fear of distracting her brother.

An Qingping also clenched his fists and looked at his son worriedly.

At the moment when the wolf's fangs were about to bite An Honglei's arm, his arm suddenly dropped down, and his other hand clenched into a fist and swung towards the old wolf's neck.

It hit the old wolf hard on the neck and knocked him to the ground.

Without waiting for the old wolf to stand up, An Honglei ran over and pressed the wolf's head firmly to the ground, and stabbed the wolf's neck with the dagger in his hand.

After stabbing the old wolf more than ten times, he still didn't stop even when he was out of breath.

It was Dad who came over and restrained his hand: "Honglei, it's dead!"

His father's voice brought An Honglei back to his senses. His eyes became clear again.

"Brother, you are so old and awesome. I admire you so much." After saying that, she pounced over and hugged An Honglei, not caring at all about the wolf blood on her brother's body.

When An Honglei was held by his sister, he turned back into the gentle boy who loved his sister.

He hugged his sister and only let her go after the impact of killing the wolf was completely eliminated from his heart.

"Dad, I killed the wolf." He looked at his father with bright eyes.

An Qingping gave his son a thumbs-up and praised him generously: "You did a great job. You remained calm and reacted quickly during the fight with the wolf. You took down the wolf with your strength. Dad is proud to have such an outstanding son like you."

"I am also proud to have such an outstanding brother." An Xueyan said as she shook the hands they were holding.

An Honglei smiled, very happily. The wolf's blood was still on his face, but it couldn't block the sunny brightness of his smile.

The tall father looked at his son covered in blood with a bright smile with gentle eyes, and his daughter who was looking at her brother with a sweet smile. There was also a silent wolf corpse on the ground beside them.

In this silent mountain, this scene seems particularly warm.
