Return To the Era with Space Supplies

Chapter 118 Deep in the Mountain

Si Ningning paused slightly, and the gloom in her heart dissipated a little. She turned her head and looked at Huo Lang, her eyes full of surprise and she couldn't hide it:

 “Will you come with me?”

 “Of course, but not when on a mission.”

Speaking of going on a mission, Si Ningning recalled how he met Huo Lang in the town today.

Although I don’t know what the “task” in Huo Lang’s words is, after all, it must be mainly personal matters.

She would definitely not dare to go up the mountain alone. She was already very grateful that Huo Lang was willing to take the time to accompany him.

Thinking of this, Si Ningning opened her neat rows of teeth and smiled like a flower:

"Thanks!"

Seeing the little girl regain her smiling face, Huo Lang breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second he heard Si Ningning say:

 “Um, are we going the wrong way?”

Si Ningning looked around. She was in a low mood just now. She didn't pay attention to her surroundings at all. Now that she realized it, the road section was already significantly different from the road she walked last time.

Last time they went up the mountain from the foot of the mountain to the bamboo forest and only went down a small hill. But now where they were, the terrain gradually went downwards. If they walked a little further, it would probably be a ravine.

Si Ningning was a little worried, "We won't get lost, right?"

"No. You can also take this road." Horanti walked in front, "It's hot and the mountains are stuffy. Maybe it's better to change to another place."

With Huo Lang leading the way, Si Ningning no longer felt afraid. She regained her energy and picked flowers along the road. She fell ten meters behind Huo Lang and soon started to trot to keep up.

By the time they arrived at their destination, Si Ningning had already put a small hat made of honeysuckle vines on her head.

"Wow…"

 The scene that greets you is that the trees are getting thinner and the land is monopolized by green and continuous bamboo forests. When the breeze blows, half of the mountain is submerged in the sound of "whistle and rustle", and the air environment is particularly fresh and quiet.

On the other side of the bamboo forest, a snake snakes across the creek. That area is very clever, as if a gap has been torn open in the clouds, and that area is shrouded in light. The stream is sparkling. Occasionally, it flows from a higher place to a lower place, and a "gugu ding ding" sound is heard. Crisp and sweet sound.

 Throwing aside the hard work of working in the fields some time ago, for a moment, Si Ningning thought that she had returned to the time when she was a child and played at her grandma's house on vacation.

 She likes this place.

 I liked it from the first sight.

The little stars were twinkling in her eyes, and Huo Lang knew at a glance that she liked this place.

Huo Lang followed Si Ningning's eyes and looked around together.

“The mountains are full of different postures, and each season is different. There are many places that are more secluded than here. I’ll have plenty of time next time, so I can take you to see them one by one.”

 “Now, let’s get to work.”

Si Ningning nodded, narrowed his eyes and smiled brightly, "Yeah."

 “But then again, where does this stream come from?”

Huo Lang glanced at the selection of bamboo, while Si Ningning looked around and tilted his head to listen.

There was some noise upstream of the creek, which sounded like the sound of water pouring down from a small waterfall.

“Either it was leached from the mountains, or it was diverted from the branches of the Yellow River on the other side of the mountains.”

As he spoke, Huo Lang bowed down and started chopping a piece of bamboo.

Si Ningning said "Oh" because she couldn't help. As she said at the beginning, she carried the small backpack and bowed step by step to search for traces of bamboo fungus nearby.

 It hasn’t rained recently, so there aren’t many Dictyophora in the bamboo forest. Most of those that can be found have withered and rotted.
