“If you put the medicinal herbs in the bag, won’t they get squashed?” Jiang Zebei moved toward her and took out the linen bag he had already prepared.

Chen Mengtian cast a glance at it and shook her head swiftly. “Don’t worry.”

As she spoke, she picked up all the thorowax roots fro the ground and stuffed them into the linen bag. “You really prepared everything.”

Jiang Zebei said nothing. He carried the stuffed bag and continued onward while Chen Mengtian followed behind him.

They continued forward for a time but stopped before traveling too far.

Chen Mengtian had discovered other medicinal herbs.

Platycodon roots could help with coughs, phlegm, sore throats, raspy voices, and other things.

Largehead atractylodes could strengthen the spleen, improve vigor, expel heat, promote fluid circulation, stop sweating, and stabilize fetuses. It was used to help those with weak spleens, bad appetite, and unstable fetuses.

Common monkshood roots were used to expel wind, get rid of excess humidity in the body, expel chills, and serve as painkillers. They were mainly used to cure the flu, arthralgia, other types of joint pain, numbness in the body, and stiff lower body. They could also be used to numb pain.

Some of the medicinal herbs that grew in this season were medicinal herbs whose functions were currently unknown to those in Cold West, but others were medicinal herbs that everyone knew.

The moment Chen Mengtian ran into medicinal herbs people knew and which were valuable, she dug them out or harvested them.

Very soon, half of the linen bag was stuffed with medicinal herbs.

All along the way, Jiang Zebei just followed Chen Mengtian and carried the bag on his back.

While going around with her, he discovered some traces of animals, but he was not in a hurry to hunt them.

When he saw Chen Mengtian’s sweet face and how happy she was when she discovered medicinal herbs, he could not help but be in a good mood as well.

Chen Mengtian suddenly stopped walking at the outskirts of the forest.

Her eyes were trained on lush green plants nearby. Fruits that were smaller than red grapes were hanging from their branches.

If she identified them correctly, she was going to be rich.

Since they were quite a distance away, she could only see their general outline.

Chen Mengtian could not help but increase her speed and walk over to the lush green plants with fruits that were smaller than red grapes on their branches.

She was used to acting on her own, so she did not think about Jiang Zebei at all.

But Jiang Zebei had been paying attention to Chen Mengtian. At the moment she stopped moving, he too stopped.

When he saw Chen Mengtian heading over to the pit nearby without seeing it, he hurried over and grabbed her. “Where are you going?”

Chen Mengtian pointed at the spot nearby. Now, she could see the green plants clearly. “I want to take a look over there. Look at those green plants. They also have medicinal properties.”

This time, Jiang Zebei did not let Chen Mengtian go. Slight disapproval appeared on his young but exquisite face.

“There are weeds all over the bushes, and there’s a huge pit over there. It’s dangerous.”

Chen Mengtian had never come here before, so she did not know, but Jiang Zebei knew the general outline of the forest.

They might be on the outskirts, but there were dangers lurking everywhere in the forest.

There was a decently sized bottomless pit at the spot where Chen Mengtian pointed, and it was covered by dense vegetation. It could not be easily found, and he once nearly fell into it.

When Chen Mengtian heard it, she just smiled without any worry on her face. “You’re here. Come with me. If I’m not wrong, it’s ginseng.”

Jiang Zebei originally had disapproval on his face, but when he heard Chen Mengtian mention ginseng, he blurted out, “Are you sure? Doesn’t ginseng grow on trees?”

“Pfft…” When Chen Mengtian heard his words, she laughed before she could stop herself. “Who told you that ginseng grows on trees?”

However, her question made Jiang Zebei look at her strangely.
