After the indigenous heroine was reborn, she went crazy and reorganized the plot line
Chapter 91: Searching in the Back Mountain
When asked this, Chang Sen couldn't help but sigh.
He looked up at the dim silver moon hanging in the sky, with an indescribable melancholy and sadness on his face.
Seeing this, Rong Su was even more confused. Could it be that this matter was related to Chang Sen?
"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I'm just curious anyway." Not wanting to embarrass the other party, Rong Su decided not to ask. However, it was because they still had some distance to go to the back mountain of the mica mining area, and she asked out of pure boredom.
Chang Sen seemed to be relieved a lot, but his eyes were dark, hiding a lot of guilt, self-blame, or regret, all of which he suppressed.
"It's okay. Since Doctor Rong asked, it's good to know. After all, the City Lord has always treated Doctor Rong as a relative."
Rong Su did not respond to this, but just listened quietly.
He also paused for a moment, as if thinking about where to start. After half a minute, he slowly opened his mouth.
"The city lord's fiancée died in the mountains behind the mica mines, jumping off a cliff to commit suicide out of love. Since then, the city lord has stopped discussing marriage. No matter how others tried to persuade him, he politely refused. Later, everyone understood that it was a heartbreaking matter for the city lord, so they stopped talking about it without permission."
After hearing these words, Rong Su finally understood that there was such a thing going on here. Could it be that the place had become a forbidden area?
Yan Liang's fiancée actually ran there to commit suicide for love. That place is the sad place that he cannot bear to see. No wonder Yan Liang's face turned bad when this place was mentioned today.
But when she asked about the forbidden area just now, Chang Sen's expression was not very good. What does this matter have to do with him?
Chang Sen seemed to have seen through her thoughts. His voice became much more dejected as he said calmly, "The city lord's fiancée is my biological sister."
What? After hearing this, she finally understood why Chang Sen looked so sad.
Rong Su didn't know what to say to comfort him. She was not good at comforting people, so she could only say to him in a dull tone, "My condolences."
Chang Sen was not trying to comfort Rong Su, but he suddenly brought up this matter and was going to that place, which inevitably triggered his emotions and caused him to show those emotions.
He sighed softly, a slightly sad smile on his face: "It's all in the past. I've been here again for so many years, so it's inevitable."
He didn't say anything else afterwards and turned his head away. It seemed that he really couldn't help it. She could vaguely see that his eyes were quite red.
"I understand." Rong Su could only say this and looked at him silently.
Chang Sen took a few deep breaths, as if trying to calm himself down, then turned his face around and his tone became much calmer.
"I actually regret it. If I could have started over, I would never have forced her to marry the City Lord. I thought she would be happy if she married the City Lord. The City Lord is a very good person. I have assisted him for so long and I know his character. The City Lord also has feelings for my sister. I am naturally happy to entrust my sister to such a person."
He paused, his voice growing sadder.
"However, I overlooked another thing. I was very happy about this, and the city lord was also happy, but I completely ignored my sister's intentions and feelings. I blindly attributed what I thought was good to her, but forgot to ask her what she thought. I also know that she has a timid personality and likes to hide everything. If I cared about her more and asked her more questions, she wouldn't have done this."
"I was wrong. I never thought she would have someone she liked. That was also the first time I saw her with such a resolute expression. She resolutely jumped off the cliff with that person."
Chang Sen's voice was deep and had a hint of crying, which sounded particularly heavy at night.
This is a very heavy and sad story. Rong Su chose to remain silent. As an outsider, there were some things that she could not comment on, so it was best for her to simply keep silent.
Silent silence is actually a great comfort. After a while, Chang Sen came out of that sad and bleak mood and regained his usual calm expression.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the mica mining area.
To go to the back mountain, one must first enter from the mica mining area, and then go around to the back mountain from a small path. This was what she had asked someone about when she was planning to go to the back mountain of the mining area.
After entering the mining area, although it was night and the visibility was a little dim, there was a servant holding an oil lamp beside me, so I could still see my surroundings clearly.
I saw a lot of black stones piled up around the mining area, and after coming in, there were fewer unpleasant odors.
It can be seen that those black stone blocks are live charcoal on the limestone mountain.
Chang Sen also saw Rong Su's eyes fall on the pile of live charcoal, so he spoke.
"Thanks to Doctor Rong and Master Shen, the people of our mining town can now make a living. Since the live charcoal was added to the mica mine, the toxic odor from the mica has been reduced. Now that the mica mine has reopened, many miners and residents are excited and say they have hope again."
Rong Su was indeed relieved to hear that the mica mine was reopened and the miners could have jobs again. However, more and more people have thanked her recently. She thought she would get used to it, but for some reason, she was confused.
"Actually, we should thank Master Xu of the Tiger Head Sect more for this. The live charcoal is from Limestone Mountain and belongs to the Tiger Head Sect. It was Master Xu's generosity that led to the deal and cooperation with the City Lord that led to the current improvements in the mica mining area."
Chang Sen glanced at Rong Su, and hearing her humble words, he couldn't help but smile faintly, and looked at Rong Su with a lot more respect in his eyes.
"Master Xu is naturally grateful. But the one who has contributed the most is you, Doctor Rong. Not only have you worked hard to treat the people suffering from lung disease, but you have also taken the trouble to seek help from Master Hutoumen for the miners who still have work to do. For all these things and all these achievements, you deserve the gratitude of the entire mining city."
As he said this, he stopped, faced her, clasped his hands together, and bowed to her solemnly.
Seeing this, the confusion in Rong Su's eyes became even heavier. She frowned and turned her gaze to another place. Seeing that they were almost at the back mountain, she quickly changed the subject.
"I wonder which places in the back mountains are more secluded? The herbs I'm looking for usually grow in relatively secluded places, preferably with plenty of cover."
Chang Sen seemed to realize that Rong Su was deliberately changing the subject, but he didn't mind. He thought that maybe Rong Su didn't want to hear those things, so he stopped talking and thought about her words for a while before replying.
"I remember there are several. I'll take you there."
Seeing that Chang Sen knew about it, Rong Su thought that this could speed up the process. Otherwise, it would take her forever to find someone in such a big mountain.
With Chang Sen leading the way, they went to several places, but Rong Sujian didn't see anyone.
But in order to avoid being noticed, she had to pretend to be looking for herbs seriously in the vicinity. When she saw that what she was looking for was not there, she would shake her head and say that it was not there.
After changing several places, Rong Su began to get anxious. It was almost three quarters past midnight, so where was that person hiding?
Chang Sen, standing aside, could also notice that Rong Su seemed a little anxious. He couldn't help but wonder, could those herbs be very important?
Thinking that he could help Rong Su, he asked her softly, "Perhaps Doctor Rong could describe the herbs and tell us. I'll have these attendants disperse to look for them. That way, with more people, we should be able to find them faster. What do you think, Doctor Rong?"
After being asked this question, Rong Su's mind started to spin, and then she thought that it would be better to look for it separately, and she could go look for it alone.
After figuring it out, Rong Su briefly described the three herbs. In the dark, they might not be able to find them.
"Okay, do you understand everything?" Chang Sen said in a serious voice, looking at the two servants he brought with him.
The two attendants nodded respectfully and said in unison: "I understand."
They had just searched many places, including the east and west. Maybe the person was in the north or south.
Thinking about it, Rong Su casually said the words he had prepared.
"I think that even though we went to both the east and west sides just now, we might not have seen it clearly enough."
After hearing her words, Chang Sen understood Rong Su's meaning and immediately said to the attendants: "You go east, you go west."
After giving the order, the two servants responded and went to the east and west sides respectively. After instructing the servants, he looked at Rong Su again. Seeing that she was still thinking hard, he thought she was worried about something, so he spoke.
"There are no wild animals or tigers or leopards in the back mountain. Ever since that incident, the city lord sent people to drive away the wild animals and completely seal it off. So you can go and look for it without worry."
Knowing that Chang Sen was trying to reassure her and not be afraid of danger, Rong Su nodded gratefully. As expected, Chang Sen could serve as Yan Liang's right-hand man and was indeed a thorough person.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Chang. I'll go to the north to take a look. Could you please go to the south to take a look?"
Rong Su had spoken, so Chang Sen naturally wouldn't refuse. However, he was still a little worried about her being alone at night. Even though he had just said that there were no wild beasts here and there would be no danger, saying and thinking were still two different things.
"Actually, I can go to the north with you first."
Seeing that Chang Sen was still worried, she couldn't help but laugh, and said in a teasing tone: "Brother Chang just said that it was safe here, why are you saying such things now?"
Hearing her teasing, Chang Sen showed an awkward smile on his face and laughed dryly: "Okay, I'll go to the south to look for it. If you have any problems, be sure to shout loudly, I won't go too far."
"Okay." Rong Su smiled, understanding Chang Sen's concern.
After parting ways with Chang Sen, Rong Su put away her smile and continued searching along the road to the north with a serious look.
It was very dark at night and my vision was greatly restricted. I couldn't see clearly, and it was difficult to see even with a lamp.
After searching for a quarter of an hour, her anxiety grew. Rong Su couldn't help but blame the reader, whispering, "After giving me the time, couldn't you also tell me the location? I'm being searched around like a headless fly. Are you guys trying to make fun of me?"
After a while, the reader popped up and it was Xiaozhu speaking.
[Host, calm down. The world's plot has long been muddied by the supporting actress and her system. The world is now on alert and in a state of chaos. We don't have complete information.]
Looking at it saying how innocent and wronged it was, but it was still her who did the work, Rong Su curled the corners of her mouth. She knew that they really had no way to solve the problem and she could do nothing about it, but she still couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
"No matter what you say, you're always right. I've said everything you want to say. I can only be your tool."
The reader disappeared, perhaps because it felt guilty and was unable to respond to Rong Su's words.
Rong Su originally didn't expect the reader to help her with anything. From the beginning, the reader had never given her any great help, so there was no point in expecting anything.
The situation now is just that I have been looking for someone for too long, and I have some resentment in my heart, so I want to vent it.
As I was searching, I walked into a place that was too quiet, and the weeds everywhere were taller than a person.
She reached out to push it aside, trying to make a way through. After taking a few steps, she heard a very faint sound.
The sound was like a dull hum. She stopped pulling weeds and listened quietly to the direction of the sound.
Soon, the sound came faintly from her right. Although it was very small, like a mosquito or fly, it could still be heard if one listened carefully.
Could it be the wanderer named Aku?
Her eyes lit up slightly, and she was delighted. She quickly turned to the right. The weeds on the right were also tall, so she reached out to push them aside, being cautious in her movements for fear of disturbing the person.
After pulling the grass for a long time, I started to wonder if I had heard it wrong. Halfway through, the sound suddenly disappeared.
Rong Su frowned, not caring whether she had heard it wrong or not. Even if she had, she had to go and see for herself.
I quickened my pace and finally saw the end of the weeds. After emerging from the trees, my vision became wider, but the surroundings were still dark.
I raised the lamp forward to illuminate the road ahead and found a small hole in front of me.
She rolled her eyes and thought that the small cave was a good place to hide. However, it was dark and she couldn't tell whether there was a person or something else hidden in it. She was a little scared.
But then he remembered what Chang Sen had said just now, that all the wild beasts here had been driven away long ago, so there would be no danger.
Only then did he feel a little relieved, his eyes became firm, and he walked towards the cave entrance holding the lamp.
The height of the small cave was a bit low, which was suitable for the girl to enter. However, she was half a head taller than a girl of her age, so she had to lower her head to enter.
After entering, I found that it was really narrow, but it was big enough for one person to enter.
I reached out and felt around the mountain walls. They were uneven and a little damp. I guess it was because of the heavy frost at night at this time of year.
The further she went inside, the clearer the heavy breathing she heard became.
She couldn't help but start to feel a little scared. What if she met a beast instead of a human? Would she be able to escape unscathed?
I held the handle of the lamp tightly and kept reassuring myself in my heart. No matter what, I had to see it first.
Finally, through the dim light of the lamp, she saw a shadow not far away, reflected in front of her, and her heart skipped a beat.
He swallowed, forced himself to calm down, raised the oil lamp higher, and called out to the shadow while carefully approaching it.
"Are you a human? Or an animal?"
Although he knew that if it were an animal, it would definitely not respond to him, and that asking this question would seem foolish, his mind was now filled with fear, and he could only think of asking this question.
Suddenly the shadow moved and let out a very painful muffled sound.
The light from the lamp finally shone completely on the shadow.
