The peasant widow is famous all over the world

Chapter 52 Nothing works without anyone

After searching all the way, I actually found two plants, but they were smaller than the first one.

"Cousin, tell me what's going on with that tiger. Let's discuss how to deal with it." Lu Zhiqiang sat down on the rock, took out his water bag and took a sip of water.

The three of them had returned to the place where they rested last night, unloaded their belongings, and sat down to recover their strength.

It was past noon now, and all three of them took out dry food to satisfy their hunger.

When Tang Mian heard Lu Zhiqiang's question, he also turned to look at Lu Zhi'an.

After Lu Zhian drank a large amount of water, he wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth and said: "I saw an adult male tiger there, and it was a bit difficult to get rid of it. If it slaps it with all its strength, I guess I have to give up my life."

Tang Mian's heart skipped a beat.

Lu Zhiqiang's expression also became serious, "Cousin, you have experience hunting wild beasts, so what do you think can be done better?"

Lu Zhi'an pondered for a moment and said, "Tiger's usually active at dusk and rest most of the day. Let's go there while the sun is shining brightly and we have regained our strength."

"I've made two traps there before. Don't rush to collect ginseng when we get there. Let me observe the environment first and check that the traps are completely repaired."

Lu Zhi'an's words made Tang Mian start to retreat, "Cousin, we can look for ginseng elsewhere, or find other medicinal materials. We don't have to pick those few plants."

Seeing Tang Mian's nervous and anxious expression, Lu Zhi'an smiled with relief, "Brothers and sisters, don't worry, just like Zhiqiang said, we have been very lucky along the way. Also, tigers have a wide range of activities. Maybe when we go, it will Maybe it’s not even there.”

Lu Zhiqiang also agreed with what Lu Zhi'an said, but he had to remind Tang Mian of a cruel fact, "Brothers and sisters, you are not [-]% safe when you go into the mountains. We may also encounter the male tigers mentioned by our cousin in other places. Or some other beast.”

"Actually, compared to other places, the place where those ginseng plants are located has traps dug by my cousin, so it is relatively safe."

If he was destined to face a male tiger or other ferocious beast, he would rather be where those ginseng plants were.

Tang Mian's expression froze. It was a smooth journey, and with two experienced cousins ​​following her, she almost forgot about these dangerous factors.

"First cousin, second cousin, I understand. Let's go over after we have a rest."

Lu Zhi'an and Lu Zhiqiang nodded, "Okay."

The three of them stayed at Xiaoyanpo to rest and regain their strength. Tang Mian touched the dagger in his arms and closed his eyes to rest.

Lu Zhiqiang and Lu Zhi'an quietly discussed the details of the tiger hunt.

Half an hour later, the three of them loaded up their things and headed for their destination.

Lu Zhian was holding a tiger-hunting spear in his hand and walked at the front, observing the surroundings vigilantly.

Lu Zhiqiang walked at the back, holding a long knife and looking like a torch.

Tang Mian walked in the middle, holding a dagger in both hands and his heart high.She didn't know how long she had been walking, but Lu Zhian stopped.

"Cousin." Tang Mian slightly shouted nervously.

Lu Zhian turned back and smiled, "It's okay, we've arrived at our destination. Judging from the current situation, there are no traces of the male tiger, and we haven't seen any other beasts, so we are still safe."

Tang Mian breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what should we do next?"

Lu Zhi'an looked at Lu Zhiqiang behind him and said, "Zhiqiang, protect your siblings while I go check the traps I laid before."

"Okay." Lu Zhiqiang took two steps forward and nodded.

Lu Zhian then walked towards the trap he had set before and found signs of slight damage. After repairing it, he got up and walked towards another trap.

After both traps were checked, Lu Zhian called the two of them over.

"Brother and sister, let me take you to see the ginseng flowers I saw before."

Tang Mian said hello and followed Lu Zhian.Lu Zhiqiang also followed without saying a word, but his expression was slightly excited.

After walking about four to five feet, Tang Mian saw a bright red ginseng flower with more leaves than the first one they found.

Tang Mian unloaded his things excitedly, picked up the tools and said, "Cousin, this is indeed ginseng. Can it be harvested now?"

"Okay." Lu Zhian nodded happily, and he remembered correctly.

Tang Mian quickly stepped forward and started digging. After several experiences in the morning, her movements were faster and more stable.

Lu Zhian and Lu Zhiqiang, on the other hand, looked around warily.

The male tiger has been here before, and it's unclear when it will come again, so they'd better be careful.

After a while, Tang Mian dug out the ginseng.

"First cousin, second cousin, this ginseng is bigger than the previous one." Tang Mian said happily, holding the ginseng in both hands.

Lu Zhian and Lu Zhiqiang also discovered it, and their faces turned red with excitement, "Great!"

After calming down for a moment, Lu Zhian said: "Let's go dig another one and leave as soon as possible."

Tang Mian and Lu Zhiqiang both agreed.

Wrap the ginseng quickly, pick up the things and follow Lu Zhian's pace.

The three of them dug two more plants, almost the same size as the first one they dug in the morning.

After Lu Zhian finished digging the ginseng he had discovered earlier, the three of them left quickly.

Returning to Xiaoyanpo, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

There are few trees in this place and the sun is strong, so animals generally don't come here.

"Cousin, what's next?" Lu Zhiqiang asked.

Lu Zhian looked at the sky and said, "Now that the unitary hour has passed, many ferocious beasts have begun to come out and move around. The next safe place is far away, so it is safer for us to stay here. After dawn tomorrow, we will go look for Polygonum multiflorum, and then Just come out of the mountain.”

Hearing that he would be leaving the mountain tomorrow, Lu Zhiqiang felt a little regretful, "If I hadn't gone out as a escort the day after tomorrow, we could have stayed in the mountain for two more days and looked for two more medicinal materials."

Tang Mian smiled and comforted: "Second cousin, our trip this time has proved that collecting herbs in the mountains is indeed feasible. Wouldn't it be better to come in more prepared next time?"

Lu Zhiqiang felt slightly relieved, "That's true."

"After this escort trip is over, I will no longer take on the escort job in a short period of time. Let's concentrate on going into the mountains to collect herbs."

Lu Zhian laughed and said, "Okay, we two brothers will work together from now on."

His eldest son’s decision to go to the county to study has been settled!
Lu Zhiqiang shook his head, "We alone can't do it. We need our younger brothers and sisters to collect the herbs."

"Haha, yes." Lu Zhian agreed.

Tang Mian smiled and said, "Going into the mountains to collect herbs will not work without anyone."

Lu Zhian waved his hand, "Okay, stop being so polite. I'll take a look around to see if I can catch some small prey for dinner."

"Okay, cousin, go ahead and leave this to me." Lu Zhiqiang nodded.

Lu Zhi'an stood up and left with his bow and arrow, while Lu Zhiqiang and Tang Mian gathered some firewood around.
