After Director Sun left, Ning Yao turned to Chen Feng, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Chen Feng, how do you know Director Sun?"

Just now, I saw Uncle Zhou and Mayor Jin were both in awe of Director Sun.

Hearing this, Chen Feng curled up the corners of his mouth with a playful smile, and deliberately joked: "Isn't it because I'm handsome?"

When these words were spoken, Ning Yao was stunned at first, then he reacted and felt a little amused and glared at Chen Feng unhappily.

"You really know how to flatter yourself. What kind of man would say he's handsome?"

"Haha, Comrade Ning Yao, we must seek truth from facts." Chen Feng laughed and didn't take it seriously.

Ning Yao couldn't help but look at his face again and examined him carefully.

Chen Feng is indeed very handsome, not the kind of feminine handsomeness, but rather the kind of resolute and masculine handsomeness. He exudes a sunshine and confidence that is rare among other men of this era.

It was as if he did not belong to this era at all, but came from some more enlightened and free place.

She has met many men of the same age so far, but none of them can compare to Chen Feng.

Thinking of this, Ning Yao's cheeks turned slightly red.

It's getting dark.

After dinner, Chen Feng began to think about going into the mountains again.

He had something on his mind. One was to help Director Sun continue to find the rare matsutake mushroom. The last search during the day was fruitless, so he wanted to try his luck again at night.

Secondly, he was still thinking about the Jinbian Yuanhe and the even more precious wild ginseng.

There is a little-known secret between this golden-edged ginseng and wild ginseng - they often grow together.

Wild ginseng is still a rare commodity in this era, and its value is self-evident. Even those who know nothing about matsutake mushrooms and golden-edged yuan mostly know how precious ginseng is.

Therefore, Chen Feng planned to wait until late at night when everyone was asleep and then quietly search for it so that he could bring this precious item home.

Before setting off, Chen Feng made sufficient preparations.

He knew that the forest at night was very different from that during the day. Not only would his vision be obstructed, but he might also encounter sudden mountain rains.

So he found the waterproof raincoat, folded it carefully and put it in his backpack.

Then he took out a brand new flashlight from the bedside table. He bought it specially in town after selling all the matsutake mushrooms last time. The light was strong and focused, which was perfect for night lighting.

In addition, he also brought a small shovel, a pair of scissors, several cloth bags for holding the harvest, and of course a hunting rifle and a machete dagger. Everything was ready.

Chen Feng dressed neatly, carried a heavy backpack, and quietly pushed open the door.

Outside the door, the moonlight was dim and the stars were twinkling, providing a faint light for his night journey.

He took a breath of fresh air, took a step forward, and headed deep into the forest.

These days, supplies are scarce, and the only good thing is the fresh air.

Okay, just consider it as nourishing your lungs!

In the mountains and forests, the night breeze blows, the leaves rustle, and the occasional cries of nocturnal animals add a bit of mystery and tranquility.

Chen Feng turned on the flashlight, and the beam of light drew a bright path in the darkness. He carefully shuttled between the trees.

When he encountered steep places, he used the light of the flashlight to find a safe foothold; when he encountered deep in the dense forest, he used a shovel to gently push away the weeds, for fear of missing any possible clues.

After walking for about an hour, Chen Feng's flashlight suddenly shone on an unusual area of ​​ground.

There, there are not a few lonely matsutake mushrooms, but a densely distributed group of matsutake mushrooms.

They are like small treasures, lying quietly among the fallen leaves and mosses. Their caps are an attractive yellow-brown color, and they are particularly eye-catching under the cover of night.

What luck!

Chen Feng was excited and quickly squatted down and began to pick the fruits carefully.

As he gently cut the roots of the matsutake mushrooms with scissors, he was thinking to himself that the number of these matsutake mushrooms far exceeded his expectations and should be enough for Director Sun to use for a long time.

In a short while, his cloth bags were all filled to the brim, heavy and emitting bursts of tempting natural fragrance.

Looking at these fruitful harvests, Chen Feng was filled with joy.

He decided to stop picking for the time being. After all, although wild delicacies are delicious, they must be picked in moderation. They cannot be picked all at once and must be given time to grow.

So he secretly memorized this location, looked around, found a sturdy tree, and carved an inconspicuous mark on the trunk so that he could easily find this "treasure land" of matsutake in the future.

After doing all this, Chen Feng carefully checked the surrounding environment again. Then, he carried the cloth bag full of matsutake mushrooms and continued to go deeper into the mountains to look for the even rarer wild ginseng.

However, finding wild ginseng is not easy.

Chen Feng shuttled through the forest for a long time, but did not see any trace of wild ginseng, and a sense of fatigue gradually arose in his heart.

Just when he was about to give up the idea of ​​searching, a slight rustling sound suddenly broke the silence of the night.

He immediately became alert and swept the flashlight beam in the direction of the sound. He saw a little fox hurriedly rushing out from a pile of dead leaves and disappearing into the night.

Chen Feng's curiosity was aroused, and he carefully approached the pile of dead leaves and illuminated it carefully with his flashlight.

At this moment, his eyes were attracted by an unusual color - it was a plant growing next to a pile of dead leaves. It had a strange shape, dark green leaves, and several crystal clear beads hanging on the stem.

He had an idea and squatted down to identify it carefully. Isn't this the wild ginseng he has been looking for?

Chen Feng was overjoyed!

He quickly put down his backpack, took out a small shovel, and started digging carefully.

The roots of wild ginseng are deeply rooted in the soil, and he dare not be careless for fear of damaging this precious medicinal material.

After some careful digging, finally, a complete wild ginseng appeared in his hand, exuding a faint fragrance.

He quickly and carefully placed the wild ginseng into a cloth bag, and then carefully checked the surroundings to make sure that no trace was left behind. Only then did he pick up his backpack and set off on his journey home.

Chen Feng, carrying a heavy backpack filled with the precious harvest from this trip into the mountains, set out on the road back to Mashan Village.

After walking for about an hour, just after turning a corner, an uninvited guest appeared in front of us - the village tyrant Ma Dabao, followed by two henchmen, blocking our way with unfriendly looks on their faces, and they even had weapons in their hands.

"Chen Feng, I finally stopped you. Didn't expect that?" Ma Dabao sneered.

"What do you want?"

Chen Feng's heart tightened, and he thought to himself, these guys are obviously following him. He kept a straight face, but he was already quickly formulating a countermeasure.
