Chapter 1309: Treasures That Can’t Be Purchased Outside
"Remember what you said today!"
Jiang Wan nodded in satisfaction and glanced at everyone present.
"I promise that as long as you work hard, you will be able to live a good life."
“We will definitely try our best.”
"Your Excellency is kind-hearted. We appreciate your good intentions."
"I will definitely urge my lazy son to go to the mountains to get more food."
“…”
Because of Jiang Wan's behavior, everyone seemed to be more positive and motivated, and the atmosphere was very high for a while.
The Valley Master gave Jiang Wan a thumbs up and said, "Junior sister, compared to you, I am ashamed of myself."
He always boasts of being kind and helping others, but he almost forgets that it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
Wanwan did a great job.
"Of course not. After all, I personally picked her as my junior sister."
Old man Ouyang raised his chin slightly with pride, as if he was the one being praised.
The Valley Master twitched his lips in silence, "The best thing you did in your life was to pick a good junior sister."
As for other things, he didn't say.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Fuling and Aguanna were quick-eyed and each persuaded one of them to leave.
In fact, there are not many people in Xiangjia Village, and many people died during the famine in the early years.
The country has been poor in recent years and there are very few newborns, so there are only a few dozen households in total.
All the food was traded quickly, and Jiang Wan and others generously gave some to the orphans and widows for free.
After all, these people have no ability to live anymore, and staying alive is even more of a luxury.
After a while, after these matters were dealt with, the villagers spontaneously made way for a path.
There is no need to worry that they will run away, because their attitudes have changed greatly.
"Take care of yourself!"
Jiang Wan turned around and led her people into the mountains without looking back, unaware that she had changed the fate of so many people.
The reason why few people from Xiangjia Village go into the mountain is because the mountain is particularly steep.
There are also wild beasts in there, so no one in the village dares to go in unless they are hunters with great courage and fighting power.
However, these hunters disdain to be in the same boat with them and live alone in one place.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Jiang Wan said to everyone, "We have to hike once we enter the mountain.
Xu Qiao, if you can't hold on any longer, you can stay at the foot of the mountain with Song Wu and wait for us."
Jiang Wan planned to let Song Wu guard the horses and carriage. As for their food, each of them carried some on their backs, and there was not much left.
"My junior uncle is doing this for your own good. If you encounter a wild beast or something, I'm afraid you won't be able to dodge in time."
Fuling was not targeting Aguanna and Xu Qiao, but was telling the truth.
Among their group, although Gan Ze and Xin Shu don't know kung fu, they are physically strong.
Needless to say, Cheng Jin knew a little bit of martial arts and was able to climb a tree to protect himself at a critical moment.
Hearing this, Xu Qiao was a little conflicted. "I... I'll follow you and climb up the tree at the critical moment, okay?"
He still wanted to stay with them at the foot of the mountain and wait, it was too boring.
It's just a waste of time.
"are you sure?"
Although Aguanna has always been nice to Xu Qiao, she is still very serious about this matter.
"Although I said I would protect you, I can't tell if it's dangerous. What if I can't protect you in time..."
"I believe you!"
Xu Qiao gave Aguanna a big smile, "And didn't you give me a lot of life-saving poison?
It should be able to poison the wild beasts at the critical moment. I have never been to the mountains since I was a child, so I am really curious.
How about this, I'll go in with you guys for a distance first, and if it's really dangerous, I'll go down the mountain?"
Seeing how persistent he was, Aguanna said to Jiang Wan, “Little Master, Daddy Master.
Let him come with me, I will protect him, and if there is any danger, I will take him down the mountain in advance."
After all, he was the person she liked, so Aguanna felt a little soft-hearted.
Old man Ouyang was so angry that he looked at Xu Qiao and thought his nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes.
"You are here to learn from us, what does this look like?!"
"Nana, your father is doing this for your own good."
It was rare for the Valley Master to stand on the same front with Old Man Ouyang. After all, Xu Qiao became out of breath after walking a few steps.
It's really not suitable for climbing the mountain.
"I'm sorry for making things difficult for everyone."
Xu Qiao saw the embarrassment in everyone's eyes, and finally said, "Then I won't go."
Although he really wanted to go, Xu Qiao knew that no one wanted to take him except Aguanna.
"I'll take you."
Perhaps it was Xu Qiao's pitiful look that made Aguanna soften her heart again, so she looked at Jiang Wan without hesitation.
"Uncle Junior Master, I will protect him."
“Nana.”
Xu Qiao was very touched, and the look he gave Aguanna was no longer as indifferent as before.
Aguanna was even more excited.
Jiang Wan said speechlessly: "Okay, protect your own people."
After saying this, she looked at the people who were in pairs and said, "The mountains are dangerous, don't take it lightly.
If there is any situation, please inform me and my fellow practitioners immediately to avoid delaying treatment."
After all, there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the mountains, so Jiang Wan took out homemade insect repellent from the cloth bag.
She sprayed some on herself first, then handed it to Fuling.
"Spray some on your body to avoid attracting bugs."
They are all delicate girls who love beauty and probably cannot accept having mosquito scars all over their bodies.
"Junior sister is really thoughtful, unlike us rough guys who don't care about these things."
Old man Ouyang is a tough guy and it is not his first time in the mountains, so he has long been accustomed to these things.
"Girls all love beauty."
Aguanna carefully sprayed it all over her body, not only her, but also the Valley Master was no exception.
In addition, Jiang Wan also prepared some small purses, each containing a small medicine bag.
The effect is similar to that of insect repellent, and she asked Muxiang to distribute it to everyone one by one.
“This small medicine bag can also repel insects and snakes, so take them with you.
We need to rest here at night, so we can’t do without this.”
Since she had decided to go up the mountain to collect herbs, she would naturally not go down the mountain easily, so Jiang Wan was well prepared.
"Jiang Wan, I feel at ease with you around."
Cheng Jin laughed. If he hadn’t followed Jiang Wan, he wouldn’t have felt safe.
"I can do that, too."
Fuling threw a purse to Cheng Jin, "But I'm not as careful as Junior Master, and I don't know how to prepare these."
She wasn't jealous of Jiang Wan, she was just a little annoyed.
Even though the master was like this, she was still not more considerate.
Xu Qiao took the medicine bag and sniffed it gently. The pleasant medicinal fragrance entered his nose and he liked it very much.
“Is this medicine bag really so magical?”
He just said it casually, but Aguanna said with some displeasure:
“Of course, you are familiar with my junior uncle’s medical skills.
Nothing she sells is bad. Even if you go to a pharmacy, you won't be able to buy anything as good as this.
It should be worth at least ten taels of silver, so keep it and don’t waste my junior master’s kindness.”
"Then I have to keep it well, because I can't buy it anywhere else."
Xu Qiao hung the purse carefully on his body. Considering his physical condition, no one asked him to carry too much.
