The peasant widow is famous all over the world

After walking a few steps, they heard a wolf howling.

The three of them looked shocked.

"The sound seems to be coming from the cave." Lu Daneng said seriously.

Tang Mian's heart tightened, "Is it possible that my cousin and the others encountered a wolf?"

Lu Daneng's expression changed slightly, "I'll go back and investigate first. Lu Zhiqiang, please protect Mrs. Lu."

After saying that, he raised his Qi and used Qinggong to leave.

"Second cousin, let's go back quickly." Tang Mian said quickly with a worried look on his face.

If she really encounters a pack of wolves, although she can't be of much help, all the medicine she bought from Doctor Wu will be on her.If someone is injured, medicine can be administered promptly.

Lu Zhiqiang looked at Tang Mian and finally nodded, "Okay."

If he doesn't let his younger siblings go back, if something happens to his cousin and the others, they will probably feel guilty for the rest of their lives, and he won't be able to get over this hurdle in his heart.

"Brother and sister, you have to promise me that if there are really wolves, you must first find a safe place to hide and not get close." Although he promised his brother and sister to go back, Lu Zhiqiang still told him first.

Tang Mian nodded understandingly, "Second cousin, I know. I can't deal with the wolf. If it attacks me when it gets close, it will cause more trouble for you."

Hearing Tang Mian's words, Lu Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief.In this way, the chances of the younger siblings being attacked will be smaller.

Next, both of them remained silent and cautiously approached the direction of the cave.

The sound of howling wolves reached their ears from time to time, and Tang Mian was so nervous that his palms became sweaty.Lu Zhiqiang was not at ease either. He had no idea about the situation in the cave. If it was really a pack of wolves, they would be in danger.

However, my cousin is experienced in hunting and he will definitely find a way to avoid it.

Yes, definitely so.

Thinking of this, the tension in Lu Zhiqiang's heart decreased a little.

Tang Mian was also praying in his heart, hoping that the wolves would not go to the cave.Even if the wolf pack passes, I hope my cousin and the others can avoid it smoothly.

The two of them had their own thoughts and walked back in a hurry.

The closer we get to the cave, the clearer the sound of the wolf howling becomes.

Lu Zhiqiang clenched the sword in his hand and stared at the surroundings with vigilance.

When they were about to reach the cave, they met Lu Daneng who was returning.

"Captain Lu, why are you back? What's going on over there in the cave?" Lu Zhiqiang asked anxiously.

Tang Mian also stared at him closely, his heart lifted high.

Seeing that the two of them were safe and sound, Lu Daneng breathed a sigh of relief, "Nothing happened over there in the cave. The wolves are on the other side, but not far from the cave. Lu Zhian said that more traps will be set up, so that even if the wolves come, we can fight .”

"Now, we have to get back to the cave quickly and don't leave outside."

"Okay, let's go back quickly." Lu Zhiqiang and Tang Mian were half relieved and followed Lu Daneng towards the cave.

When the three of them returned to the cave, Lu Zhi'an was setting up a trap, and Zhang Yi and Lu Dashan were quickly peeling wood thorns.

"I'm here to help, too." Tang Mian said upon seeing this.

Lu Zhiqiang and Lu Daneng looked at Lu Zhi'an, "Do you need anyone here?"

"No, you all go help cut the wood thorns, and you have to work quickly." Lu Zhian said without raising his head.

Lu Zhiqiang and Lu Daneng nodded, put the things back in the cave, took out their swords and whittled the wooden thorns.

They knew that this thing was to be put in a trap to deal with wolves.

The wooden thorns placed in the trap were different from those usually used. Lu Dashan, who had already whittled them very well, told them what the specific shape of the wooden thorns should be and how to peel them.

The three of them listened attentively and got started without even cutting two strands.

The five of them were immersed in peeling wood thorns, completely unaware of hunger or thirst. They didn't even have time to share the joy of picking ginseng.

Two quarters of an hour later, Lu Zhi'an's sudden voice interrupted the movements of several people, "That's about it."

Tang Mian and the other five people all looked up at Lu Zhian who was not far away.

At this time, Lu Zhi'an looked a little serious and said, "It will be dark soon. Please call Capt. Zhang and join me and Dashan to set up a trap."

After speaking, he looked at Lu Daneng and said, "Please, Mr. Lu and Zhiqiang can get some more trees together."

"Okay." Several people responded one after another.

After everyone took action, Tang Mian cleaned up the ground.

When it was dark, Lu Zhian laid a trap.The trees cut down by Lu Daneng and Lu Zhiqiang were also peeled and cut into two-foot sections according to Lu Zhian's requirements.

"Zhiqiang, clean up the hare we shot before. You have to move quickly and don't let the smell of blood linger for a long time. Also, don't light a fire for the time being." After Lu Zhi'an set up the trap, he looked at Lu Zhiqiang in the moonlight and said.

Lu Zhiqiang nodded, "Okay, I know."

Lu Zhian then turned to look at Lu Daneng, Zhang Yi and Lu Dashan, "Please Zhang Tou, Lu Tou and Dashan to move the cut wood into the cave."

"No problem." The three of them responded and took action immediately.

After making arrangements, he looked at Tang Mian again, smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, it's dark and there's no fire. You go first and stay in the cave. Don't move around, lest you fall."

"Well, okay." Tang Mian responded without trying to show off.

Lu Zhi'an breathed a long sigh of relief, hung vines at the cave door, leaving only some vague gaps for ventilation, and then placed all the branches he had cut before outside the cave door to cover it up.

With these things, as long as they are careful, they will not be easily discovered by the wolves.

Even if they were discovered, the cave would be about four feet higher than the ground, which would be beneficial to them.

After doing everything well, Lu Zhian looked around and checked, then returned to the cave with peace of mind.

"You can make a fire." Lu Zhian said as soon as he entered the cave.

Lu Dashan, who had been prepared long ago, lit the fire after Lu Zhian finished speaking.

In an instant, the fire illuminated the entire cave, and the fatigue on the faces of several people was clearly visible.

Tang Mian handed over the water and dry food one by one.

"Thank you brother and sister."

"Thank you, Mrs. Lu."

Lu Zhian and the other five people thanked each other and took it.

Tang Mian smiled and said, "You're welcome."

Lu Zhian took a sip of water, took two bites of dry food, and then said: "We still have to use the trees in the cave to cut a batch of wooden arrows and make a few bows. If we really encounter a pack of wolves, those wooden arrows we occasionally cut before, and The few iron arrows I have are far from enough."

Several people drank water, bit into dry food, and nodded in agreement.

After he was no longer so hungry, Lu Zhi'an wiped his mouth with his backhand and said, "Zhiqiang, Dashan, let's move the two big rocks from the cave to the entrance to block it."

"Okay." Lu Zhiqiang and Lu Dashan said after swallowing the dry food and patting the crumbs on their hands.

Lu Daneng and Zhang Yi looked at each other, it was hard to watch, and they got up to help move the rocks.

The big stone is half the height of the cave door, so it is best to use it to block the door.

After the cave door was blocked, Lu Zhian nodded with satisfaction and moved a stone half a person's height to the door.

"The night watchman standing on the stone can just see the scene outside the cave. If the wolves come over, they can see it at a glance." Lu Zhian clapped his hands and said.At that time, there will be a big stone blocking the cave door, and the wolf will have to jump if he wants to get in.When the wolf jumps into the air, they can shoot it with arrows.In this way, even if the wolf cannot die, it will still be injured.

Seeing the arrangements made by Lu Zhian, the other five people were greatly relieved.

"Okay, let's roast the hare and eat it." Lu Zhiqiang said.

No one objected to this at this time. They were all so hungry that eating a piece of solid food was of no use.

Tang Mian smiled and put the remaining dry food in his hand back into the basket.

Suddenly, Tang Mian paused, turned to look at the people present and said, "When I went out with Mr. Lu and his second cousin before, we picked a ginseng plant."

I have been busy since I came back. If I hadn't accidentally touched the cloth wrapping ginseng, I wouldn't have thought about it.

Lu Zhiqiang and Lu Daneng also suddenly realized it, let alone forget it for a while.

The three people who did not follow him out all turned to look at Tang Mian, with some expectation in their eyes, "How many years of ginseng is there?"

Tang Mian chuckled lightly, took out the cloth bag, untied it, and spread it out in his hands to show to several people.

Lu Zhian, Lu Dashan, and Zhang Yi all gathered around, their eyes full of joy, "Isn't this ginseng plant very old?"

I feel refreshed just by smelling it.

The three of them all stared at Tang Mian, wanting to know the answer from her.

Tang Mian breathed a long sigh of relief and replied happily: "At least 300 years."

For this kind of old ginseng, she wouldn't know the specific year, only a general idea.

"Three, three hundred years?" Zhang Yi's eyes widened and he stammered.

Everyone present widened their eyes in disbelief, and then laughed loudly, "Great!"

"With this ginseng, can we go back?" Zhang Yi said casually.

The laughter of several people stopped and they were silent for a while.

"My lord, please try to find some other valuable medicinal materials besides ginseng." After a moment, Lu Daneng said.

After listening to Lu Daneng's words, Zhang Yi came back to his senses.In the moment of happiness, I just wanted to go back and forgot about the county magistrate's instructions.

Tang Mian frowned slightly, and Lu Zhiqiang and the other three also looked at each other.

Tang Mian thought for a while and said, "As for other medicinal materials, we only found a fairly good Polygonum multiflorum and a younger ginseng."

As for the dogwood, it is a strong medicine for curing diseases and cannot be given to my brother-in-law.I believe that when my brother-in-law finds out, he won’t want it.

Lu Zhi'an looked at Tang Mian, looked at each other with Lu Zhiqiang, and finally said, "Since the magistrate has given you such orders, let's stay in the mountains for two more days and then look for him again."

Since the magistrate specifically gave the order, he must have some use for those medicinal materials.In this case, they have to look for it no matter what.

"I agree." Lu Dashan was the first to speak.

Tang Mian also nodded, "I have no objection."

Lu Daneng and Zhang Yi had no objections.

The vote passed unanimously, and the six of them were ready to stay in the mountains to search again.

As everyone knows, they haven't been home for a long time, and Zhou Xiaohua couldn't help but start making trouble in the afternoon.

"I don't care. My Dashan went into the mountain with Lu Zhi'an, Lu Zhiqiang and Tang Mian. If anything happens to him, I will definitely come to you." Zhou Xiaohua pointed at Lu Zheng and Li, and said.

Lu Dashan has been in the mountain for a few days, but now there is no news at all, and he doesn't know what the situation is.

She didn't want to become a widow like Tang Mian.

"Zhou Xiaohua, didn't Dashan tell you clearly before? Why are you coming to my house to cause trouble again?" Li said with a sad face.

When Zhou Xiaohua heard this, she immediately rubbed her neck and said reluctantly: "So what if we make it clear, can't I worry about him? Ever since he entered the mountain, I can't eat well or sleep well, and I've lost weight."

"Bah! Zhou Xiaohua, you are so shameless!" Wu Mei, who came over after hearing the news, immediately replied.

Wu Mei ran to Lu Zheng and Li, waved Zhou Xiaohua's hand away, "Zhou Xiaohua, hurry up to the river and take a look at your own fat pig appearance."

"Ever since your man entered the mountains, you have been eating a lot of meat. How can you have the nerve to say that you have lost weight?"

In fact, Zhou Xiaohua is not that fat.It's just that she doesn't have much to do, so she is fatter than someone who usually works a lot.

"I just lost weight, what's wrong?" Zhou Xiaohua put her hands on her hips and stared at Wu Mei.

"Wu Mei and Lu Zhiqiang went into the mountain with us. Last time he came back covered in blood. What if something happens again this time?"

"Pah!" Wu Mei was so angry when she heard that Zhou Xiaohua actually cursed Lu Zhiqiang, she immediately slapped him in the face, "Zhou Xiaohua, shut your stinky mouth, my man will definitely walk out of Qingzhu Mountain well."

Zhou Xiaohua covered her face in disbelief and screamed a moment later: "Wu Mei, you dare to hit me!"

"If I hit you, I'll hit you. Who made your mouth smell so bad!" Wu Mei was not afraid of her at all.

Lu Zheng and Li were very angry when they heard Zhou Xiaohua curse Lu Zhiqiang.But the next moment he saw Wu Mei slap him in the face, and his eyelids twitched again.

This niece-in-law’s temperament is so direct!
"Wu Mei, I want you to look good!" Zhou Xiaohua shouted angrily and rushed towards Wu Mei.

Wu Mei was not a vegetarian either, so she immediately struggled with her.

When Lu Zheng and Li saw this, they immediately stretched out their hands to pull them away.But both of them were nieces and nephews, so it wasn't appropriate for Lu Zheng to hold hands, and Mrs. Li couldn't hold them apart by herself, so she could only worry on the sidelines.

"Zhou Xiaohua, Wu Mei, you all calm down."

Fortunately, onlookers came over one after another, and several women worked together to pull Zhou Xiaohua away.

"Bah!" A strand of Zhou Xiaohua's hair that Wu Mei had scattered fell into her mouth, and Zhou Xiaohua spat it out immediately.

Wu Mei's hair was not very neat either, and she was almost caught in a chicken coop by Zhou Xiaohua.

"Zhou Xiaohua, what are you causing trouble? Can't you just live in peace every day?" Wang, the wife of the village chief who was walking outside, heard the news and ran over, looking at Zhou Xiaohua and said helplessly.

Zhou Xiaohua's eyes widened and she was quite unconvinced, "Am I the one causing trouble? My Dashan hasn't come out for so many days, I'm so anxious."

Wang's expression paused, but she still advised: "Zhou Xiaohua, the mountains are not just for your family. When the time comes, you will earn money, and you will be happy in your heart!"

Of course, it's dangerous.

Zhou Xiaohua snorted, of course she was happy to have earned money.

"I don't care, Lu Dashan followed Tang Mian and the others into the mountains. If something happens, be prepared to pay for it. If nothing happens, I won't bother to look for you."

After Zhou Xiaohua finished speaking, she glared at Wu Mei, then turned and left.

Having a fight makes me feel much better.

Neither Lu Dashan nor Tang Mian knew about all this.At this time, they had just finished eating the hare and continued to sharpen wooden arrows.

After whittling the wooden arrows, they took a rest.

The night watch was left to Lu Zhiqiang, Lu Zhian and Lu Daneng, and Zhang Yi took turns.

Lu Daneng and Zhang Yi, who had been watching for half the night, looked at the layout of the cave entrance and knew that the protective measures were well done.But they were still very nervous, hoping that the wolves would not come looking for them.
