Chapter 13
"Brother Zheng, our luck is not so good!"

"These two animals are fat and strong, and I'm afraid they all have four or five hundred catties!"

Looking at the two burly prey, Zhao Wu and the other three were also beaming, and they almost danced.

Most of these low-level congregants are bitter haha ​​who were forcibly robbed. They have not lived a few days without meat and meat. Now that they have hunted so many wild boars, how can they be unhappy?

"Well, now is not the time to celebrate."

Chen Zheng calmed down, looked up at the sky, and said:
"There is still an hour at most before the sun will set. Hurry up and pack up the two ends and take them back, otherwise there is no way to go on the road until it gets dark."

"Yes Yes!"

The three of them now only follow Chen Zheng's lead, and act without saying a word.

Under the arrangement, Wu San and He Daming tied up their prey with ropes, while Chen Zheng himself and Zhao Wu went to cut down trees, planning to make two pairs of pickers, otherwise there would be no way to bring these two big guys out of the mountain. .

"Wait a minute, Brother Zheng."

But at this moment, Zhao Wu seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly ran to the place where two adult wild boars were digging for food.

Then, he looked up in surprise:
"Brother Zheng, there are good things here!"

"Oh?"

Chen Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and he walked over immediately.

He saw that Zhao Wu had dug out a not-so-shallow pit at the edge of a rock that was buried deep in the soil, exposing a small section of earth-yellow things.

Chen Zheng squatted down suddenly, his eyes lit up: "This is ginseng?"

"Brother Zheng, this is wild ginseng. A beast's nose is much more sensitive than a human's. Those two big guys just now must have smelled it!"

Zhao Wu carefully dug the hole and said excitedly:

"This is a good thing. The older it is, the more valuable it is. I dug it a few times when I went to the mountains with my father, but it doesn't seem to be as big as this!"

"Wait a minute, the roots of the ginseng mustn't be hurt, I'll dig them out for you first!"

Zhao Wu was obviously more experienced than himself. Although Chen Zheng was tempted, he could only stand by temporarily, while Wu San and He Daming, who heard the conversation on the other side, came over with bright eyes after tying the ropes:
"Is there ginseng?"

But Zhao Wu said without turning his head: "This piece of soil is special, you should also look for it, maybe there are more. Mountain ginseng likes shade, usually behind the rocks or between the cracks, the first grass seedlings, If there are roots three inches under the soil, it is there!"

Hearing this, Wu San and the other two regained their spirits immediately, and immediately dispersed a few steps, squatted on the ground, and began to investigate carefully.

At the same time, under Zhao Wu's careful excavation, a whole thick ginseng about the size of an adult's palm was unearthed, and the slender roots still exude the fragrance of earth.

"Brother Zheng, we got lucky today!"

Zhao Wu excitedly handed over the thick ginseng with soil:

"Looking at the appearance of this one, it is estimated to be 30 to [-] years old. This is the first time I have seen such an old one!"

Surprised, Chen Zheng took it immediately, and at the same time there was feedback from the Emperor's Jade Document:
【Wild Ginseng (36 Years)】

rank: yellow
Explanation: Nourished by nature, it mainly replenishes qi and blood of the five viscera, soothes the spirit, stabilizes the soul, accumulates and strengthens essence, and long-term use lightens the body and prolongs life.

May be sealed/worshipable
In 36 years, wild ginseng reached the yellow rank!
And you can also offer sacrifices in exchange for heavenly skills!
The 30-year-old wild ginseng is definitely a very rare medicinal material. He never expected such a harvest, and Chen Zheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Although there was some envy in Zhao Wu's eyes, he said decisively:

"Brother Zheng, put it away first, I'll go and see if there are any around, it will only take two sticks of incense at most, okay?"

"can."

Chen Zheng nodded, and Zhao Wu immediately went to Wu San and He Daming to investigate together.

This kid has eyesight.
I have to say that besides being overjoyed, Chen Zheng's evaluation of Zhao Wu, a half-grown boy, skyrocketed.

Undoubtedly, as the leader, he has the absolute right to dispose of all the spoils after entering the mountain.

However, this mountain ginseng is valuable, and it was Zhao Wu himself who first discovered it, but he was able to hand it in so decisively, and his temperament was far beyond his age.

Although he was curious about how much heavenly power the wild ginseng in his hand could gain, it was obviously not the time to try it. Chen Zheng solemnly put the wild ginseng in his arms into his arms, and then joined the three-person search team.

There is only such a piece of fertile soil in this area, and the four people searched separately, so the efficiency is naturally very fast.

It took only a quarter of an hour or two, and they actually discovered something again, digging out a long and slender wild ginseng from under the root of a dead tree!
And this root was also found by Zhao Wu.

Under Wu San's eager eyes, Zhao Wu also handed it in neatly. After contacting Chen Zheng, he received information feedback again:

【Wild Ginseng (Seven Years)】

Rank: Fan
Explanation: Naturally nourished, it mainly nourishes the vital energy and blood of the five viscera, accumulates and strengthens essence, and long-term use makes light of body and prolongs life.

Can be sealed/not enshrined
If it is seven years old, it becomes a common rank. It seems that the age is the evaluation standard of the emperor's jade certificate?
Such a thought flashed through Chen Zheng's mind, and Zhao Wu said regretfully:

"Brother Zheng, this piece is probably gone. I suspect it was discovered and chewed by those beasts."

"It doesn't matter, our harvest today is rich enough, we can't linger any longer."

Chen Zheng looked up at the sky, and the sun was already setting in the west, so he immediately waved and said:
"Clean up and go back as soon as possible!"

More than an hour later.

Carrying two big prey in twos, after an extremely difficult trek, Chen Zheng finally led the three of them back to the foot of the mountain where the stronghold was located.

When we arrived, it was already dark.

Except for Chen Zheng, the other three people were already drenched, their legs were weak from exhaustion, and they were only panting for breath.

A wild boar weighs at least 200 kilograms. Even if several people are strong and strong martial arts practitioners, and they still carry the burden on their shoulders, carrying such a heavy weight across mountains and rivers, it is still as if they have endured a huge battle. test.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, but Chen Zheng, who has taken the Dragon and Tiger Strength Pill and stepped into the skin training level, is okay,
Zhao Wu, Wu San, and He Daming are still at the level of bone forging. Although their strength is not weak, their physical strength has long been exhausted while climbing up and down.

Fortunately, Zhao Wu, who was younger, was in a group with Chen Zheng. He was taken care of and carried the burden on the high ground all the way, saving a lot of energy, otherwise he would not have made it to where he is now.

Seeing that the victory was in sight, the people at the foot of the mountain rested for a while to recover some of their physical strength, and then mustered their last strength to carry the prey, climbed the mountain path, and returned to the stronghold.

During the period, some patrolling believers were surprised to see them returning with full load.

It's a pity that neither Chen Zheng nor anyone else is in the mood to show off and only cares about climbing.

Then, before his strength was completely exhausted, he sent all the prey to Chen Zheng's own small courtyard.
