Gu Jinan also woke up with a confused look on his face. He couldn't figure out what went wrong last night.

It seems that only by figuring out the identity of that woman can we understand what happened last night.

After packing up, he took Gu Changping to work. When he arrived, it was already very late and everyone else had already left with their things.

Jiang Qi came again today to cover for Jiang Rongxi. When he saw Gu Jinan coming, he left the door open for him.

"Gu Zhiqing, what happened?"

"Oh no, I just slept over."

Gu Changping muttered quietly beside him, "How could he have slept at all? He couldn't be woken up even if I called him."

Jiang Qi: "I slept too much. Were you very tired yesterday? How come one or two of them slept too much and I couldn't wake them up?"

Gu Jinan paused holding the sickle. "Who else has slept with him?"

"My little Lihua, she's been following my parents to the fields these past two days and must be exhausted. I couldn't wake her up this morning. I'm leaving now, so you should leave too."

"Yeah, okay."

After hearing what Jiang Qi said, Gu Jinan felt that the woman last night seemed quite similar to Jiang Qi.

.

After having dinner at home, Rong Xi went to the back mountain. She couldn't do the work in the fields, so she went to the back mountain to pick some herbs.

Most of the edible wild vegetables in the back mountain have been dug up, and there are not many usable herbs left.

She remembered that when she was a child, her third brother took her into a forest where the vegetation was lush and there should be many herbs.

She walked over there following her memory.

Fortunately, I have lost a lot of weight during this period, otherwise I would have died of gas before I even reached this place.

I searched for a long time but couldn't find it, and I had walked quite far. I was afraid it would be dangerous if I was too late, so I prepared to go back.

Suddenly, he slipped on some dry leaves and rolled down.

The herbs collected in the backpack were scattered, and the small hoe fell halfway.

The system was scared to death [Rong Xi, how are you? ]

Rong Xi didn't have time to answer. She grabbed a not-too-thick tree and finally stopped.

After I took a recovery pill, the pain in my body subsided a lot.

"Where is this?"

System: "Rong Xi, you'd better go back quickly. You've come a long way. If you don't go back halfway, it will be dark."

Rong Xi originally wanted to go back, but the road became more and more familiar, especially the cave in front of him.

"System, I think I came here last night."

System [Here? How is this possible? Shouldn't this be Gu Jinan's home?]

"I'm sure it's here."

Because she had seen the hay inside.

"System, please check if there is a snake inside."

The system didn't understand why it did this, but it did it anyway.

【In the past, there were no living creatures inside.】

After hearing this, Rong Xi slowly went in. If the snake skin was still there, then this should be where she came last night.

Sure enough, the snake skin hadn’t even changed in appearance.

She asked the system again, "Are you sure the target of this mission is a person?"

System [Confirm...it.]

Rong Xi understood, so this was not necessarily a person, but perhaps some other creature.

She wanted to see how big the snake skin was. It was almost as wide as her waist.

She picked up a stick from the ground and went over to pick it up.

"How big must this snake be? It has such a long skin."

.

Gu Jinan, who was working in the field, stopped pulling out weeds when Rong Xi touched the snake skin.

He quickly looked in the direction of the cave, which shouldn't be where anyone could find it.

He handed Gu Changping over to Li Qingqing, who was also an educated youth, to help take care of him, and then quickly left here and headed towards the mountains.

He was very fast and arrived here not long after Rong Xi left the cave.

I didn't expect that someone could find such a secret location.

When he entered, he smelled a familiar fragrance. He was sure he had smelled it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where it was at the moment.

The snake skin on the ground was obviously touched by someone, so he made hand seals and wanted to take the snake skin away.

But now his strength was minimal, and he could only maintain his human form and could do nothing else.

After he came out, he used his spiritual power to add a layer of protection to the cave, so that no one would discover it.

He followed the scent and soon found Rong Xi.

He was very curious as to why Jiang Rongxi knew about his cave.

He waited for her at the foot of the mountain in advance to see what she had discovered.

No normal person would be scared when seeing such a big snake skin, but it seemed like she was not scared at all.

Rong Xi picked some herbs along the way and saw a piece of wild kiwi fruit that no one had picked. It took him half a day to pick a small basket and carry it on his back.

Adding the weight of her own body, she was now exhausted.

"Hey, Gu Zhiqing, why are you here?"

"I just happened to be passing by here."

Rong Xi had no doubts, she thought that Father Jiang had reassigned the location today.

As Rong Xi approached, Gu Jinan smelled a strange odor.

It's blood!?

The blood in Gu Jinan's body immediately became excited, and even the part that had finally calmed down changed immediately.

He had some difficulty breathing, and his eyes became increasingly cloudy as he looked at Rong Xi.

"Let's go, let's go."

Seeing that he was about to fall, Rong Xi went over to help him, but he was thrown to the ground by him.

Gu Jinan realized that he had not controlled the strength well, and wanted to help the person who had been pushed down by him.

But in this situation, he didn't dare to get close at all.
