Jiang Xue nodded, took a backpack and a hatchet from the firewood shed, called Bailang, and went into the mountains again with Mufeng.
Seeing that they didn't even eat a bite of food, Ah Yun hurriedly called out to them, "Wait!"
She quickly took a few pieces of roasted meat, wrapped them in banana leaves, and put them in Mu Feng's backpack: "Chief, Snow Witch, you haven't eaten anything all night, so you should bring some food with you up the mountain."
Such a big thing happened in the tribe, but she could only guard her little Muzi and could not go into the bamboo house to help. Although no one said anything, she always felt guilty.
She is also an experienced person, she is also a mother, she has also experienced difficult childbirth, so she can empathize with Xiaoyu and Ayue's experiences.
At that time, if it weren't for Jiang Xue, she would have been thrown into the mountains long ago, and there was no way she would be standing here talking to them!
But she really didn't expect that the Snow Witch, who had been busy all night, had to go into the woods to look for medicinal herbs without even a sip of water, and she still couldn't help!
Since I can't help in any way, I can only ask them to bring some food, which is better than them having to find food in the woods.
"Okay." Jiang Xue hadn't eaten all night and was indeed hungry. Her stomach growled at the aroma of the meat. She tore off a piece of meat, put it in her mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it, saying, "Delicious."
"Sister Xue, I'm going too!"
Xiaohua came out skipping and jumping, "I'll carry the backpack for you."
"No, we're going to look for medicinal herbs. I don't even know where they grow, or if there are any wild animals nearby. If you follow us, and there really are wild animals nearby, we'll have to distract ourselves to take care of you. You should stay home and help Xiaoyu and Ayue."
Xiaohua wanted to say something, but Vanilla glared at her: "Xiaohua, you didn't listen to the Snow Witch, did you? You said you can't carry anything on your shoulders or in your hands. You said you went, but what can you do to help?"
"I--"
"Today, you stay home and take good care of Xiaoyu and Ayue. If I come back and hear someone say that you are not doing your job carefully, watch out!"
"Vanilla, I didn't plan on taking you there either."
Jiang Xue wanted to roll her eyes after hearing this. She had said it so bluntly, but from the way she said it, it seemed that she also wanted to go to the mountain!
But let her go. With her mediocre skills, what can she do there?
"I am..." Vanilla rolled her eyes, "I'll help you carry the backpack."
"No need, I'll carry the backpack." Mu Feng carried the backpack and pulled Jiang Xue out of the tribe without looking back.
"Hmph, you're still talking about me. Sister Axue won't take you with her either!" After the two of them walked away, Xiaohua rolled her eyes at Xiangcao and said disdainfully.
Vanilla stared at her: "Xiaohua, your skin is itchy, isn't it?"
Xiaohua screamed, then suddenly remembered what Jiang Xue had said. She quickly covered her mouth and glanced towards the bamboo house with her sneaky eyes. Seeing that there was no movement inside, she giggled, picked up a backpack and ran out: "I'm going to pick mulberry leaves!"
Vanilla looked at her retreating figure, chuckled, and scolded: "That's more like it!"
Jiang Xue followed Mu Feng, turning left and right and soon entered the mountain.
"Axue, what kind of medicinal herbs are you looking for?"
Jiang Xue pondered for a moment and said, "I want to find some wild ginseng. I just don't know if there are any in this mountain."
She only had a few Lingzhi plants, but they couldn't be used on women who had just given birth. They had to wait at least ten days or half a month before giving them Lingzhi. Wild ginseng, however, was different. They could use it, but it was only found in the Northeast. Ginseng grown elsewhere was mostly cultivated.
She didn't know if there were any in this area.
The two men took the white wolf into the mountains and did not encounter any ferocious wild beasts along the way.
Everything comes back to life in spring. Even the evergreen pine and cypress trees quietly sprout new green leaves on their branches.
"Axue, what medicinal herbs are you looking for?"
Jiang Xue said, "Ginseng."
For her, searching for medicinal herbs in the wild is actually quite a challenge.
After all, she was born in the end times, where she had only seen pictures of many medicinal herbs on the Internet, but had never actually seen them.
Although there are some processed medicinal materials for sale in pharmacies, those medicinal materials have been processed, either cut into slices or ground into powder, and their original appearance cannot be seen at all.
Not to mention people like her who come to the wild to look for purely wild medicinal herbs.
Although she had the "Shennong Bencao Jing" in her hand, many medicinal herbs looked similar, which was indeed a big challenge for a layman like her.
"Ginseng?" Mu Feng asked, "How come there's a medicinal herb with that name?"
Jiang Xue pursed her lips. She knew that she couldn't rely on him to find medicinal herbs.
But he was a member of the tribe's hunting team and the head of the clan. He was very familiar with all the places around here.
"It's not important what it's called. What's important is that we find it. It's an excellent qi-boosting herb, especially for women like Xiaoyu and Ayue who have just given birth."
Mu Feng nodded in understanding.
Since she said so, there is nothing more to say. I just have to do as she says.
"Then do you know where they usually grow?"
Jiang Xue pondered for a moment: "Logically, they all grow in deep mountains and old forests..."
What she said was as good as nothing.
The Snake Tribe is surrounded by deep mountains and old forests. Who knows where it might be hiding?
As the two chatted and laughed, they didn't feel how slowly time passed. It seemed like in just a moment, they arrived in the mountains and were quite far away from the tribe.
As they walked, Mu Feng suddenly stretched out his hand to block her and whispered, "Axue, there's something going on ahead."
Jiang Xue raised her brows. Is there something happening ahead?
She looked in the direction he was looking, half believing and half doubting.
"Someone's hunting ahead."
Hunting?!
Jiang Xueping listened attentively for a while, then gave up helplessly: "I didn't hear any sound."
All she could hear in her ears was the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the woods, and occasionally the calls of one or two birds flying quickly through the woods.
She didn't hear anything else...
"There are still quite a few of them. Let's take another route."
This is a deep mountain forest, there is no road to speak of. The so-called changing road is just changing the direction.
Jiang Xue did not insist. In her opinion, Mu Feng was her guide. If the guide felt there was danger ahead, she would try to avoid it if possible.
According to the two people's ideas, they just need to avoid each other's hunting territory and try not to disturb them while hunting.
