When Lin Xue and her companion returned, each of them was carrying a prey on their backs.

Lin Xue was carrying a fawn, a young male fawn. Its antlers weren't very large, suggesting the fawn wasn't very old.

On Liu Zhi's back was a large wild boar, weighing over 200 pounds, but it didn't feel too strenuous for him.

With fresh prey, the afternoon was busy again.

The roasted meat jerky, the stewed meat.

Of course, the village chief also came by during this time, and Lin Xue gave him a wild boar leg.

The village chief got his wild boar leg and went home happily.

They even said that if they stayed a few more days, they wouldn't have to pay the rent for the rest of the stay.

It's easy to imagine that even for these mountain people, getting a bite of meat is not an easy thing.

Liu Muchen and his group, along with the three eldest sons of the Li family, did not return until evening.

These men were followed by three carriages and several fine horses.

"Wow, so many horse-drawn carriages! Does this mean we won't have to walk anymore?"

Two children were jumping around the carriage, bouncing back and forth.

"Yes, Shunbao and Zhenbao won't have to walk anymore. Aren't you happy?"

Seeing the two children's happy expressions, Liu Muchen couldn't help but smile along with them.

"Brother Liu, you've gone to so much trouble for me again!"

Lin Xue stepped forward and looked at the three carriages, which were all extended and widened.

I then looked at several fine horses, all of them in their prime.

"Ah Xue, there's no need for us to be so polite!"

"If I have the ability, I naturally have to consider the needs of us. And you, with your power, have also helped us to enjoy the fruits of others' labor!"

Liu Muchen smiled with his brows furrowed, his refined and scholarly air almost dazzling Lin Xue.

Upon seeing the carriage, everyone's enthusiasm soared even higher. They planned to rest for two days before officially setting off the day after tomorrow.
