Chapter 181 Digging up Ginseng



Just as Qin Wan was returning with a full load and preparing to go down the mountain, a little goat suddenly ran towards her and grabbed her trouser leg with its mouth and pulled it aside.

Qin Wan asked with amusement: "Are you dragging me to find the treasure?"

Unexpectedly, the lamb seemed to understand, opened its mouth, and bleated at her a few times.

Qin Wan found it amusing now. She said to the lamb, "If there really is a treasure, you don't have to bite my clothes anymore. I'll just follow you."

Qin Wan had just been joking, but the lamb actually opened its mouth and walked forward on its own, turning back to look at Qin Wan from time to time.

If Qin Wan could keep up, it would continue to move forward. If it couldn't, it would stand in front and wait for her for a while. Sometimes it would run back and bite Qin Wan's clothes to pull her forward.

Qin Wan thought it was fun and sometimes she would deliberately walk slower, which made the angry lamb bleat at her.

Qin Wan followed the lamb forward while looking around. Inadvertently, her eyes swept across an inconspicuous plant, and she stopped in her tracks instantly.

It was a small ginseng growing in the cracks of the rocks. Although it was not very old, it was rare to find it in such a natural environment.

Qin Wan knew that ginseng was an excellent tonic, and for her, who was about to become a mother, it was a priceless treasure. She dug carefully, fearing to damage this precious herb.

When the ginseng was intact in her hands, Qin Wan's face was filled with satisfaction and joy.

She put the ginseng into the space and was about to move forward, but the lamb that had been standing beside her waiting for her blocked her way.

At this time, Qin Wan had already guessed something in her mind. She nodded at the lamb and said, "You lead the way, I'll follow you."

The lamb also nodded at Qin Wan, then walked in front of Qin Wan again and led her in one direction.

Qin Wan was very curious. She followed this human-like lamb to see where it would take her.

In this way, with one sheep in front and one person behind, they passed through a dense forest, crossed a stream, and finally the sheep stopped in front of a hidden valley.

In the valley, sunlight can hardly penetrate the dense treetops, but the air is filled with a fresh medicinal fragrance.

Following the guidance of the lamb, Qin Wan's eyes fell on a plant half-hidden in the weeds - it was another ginseng!

Moreover, compared with the one discovered previously, this ginseng appears to be thicker and has more luxuriant leaves, and is obviously older and more valuable.

Qin Wan felt excited and approached cautiously, fearing to disturb this gift from nature.

She gently pushed aside the weeds around it and slowly stretched out her hands as if performing a sacred ritual. Finally, with the help of her special powers, she successfully took the precious ginseng out of the soil.

Not only are the roots of the ginseng intact, but even the fibrous roots of the ginseng are well preserved.

She roughly counted the ginseng leaves on the body and found that there were no less than a hundred of them, which meant that it was a century-old ginseng.

Ginseng emits a light fragrance that makes people feel relaxed and happy.

She stroked the lamb's head and said gratefully, "Thank you, little one, you are my lucky star."

The lamb seemed to understand, bleating happily and running away, as if it had completed an important task and was eager to share its happiness with other sheep.

Qin Wan carefully placed the ginseng into the space, her heart filled with awe for nature and hope for the future. This chance encounter with the lamb not only allowed her to obtain precious medicinal herbs again, but also made her deeply appreciate the harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and the wonderful connection between life.

With this unexpected surprise, Qin Wan embarked on her journey home, her heart filled with infinite longing and gratitude for the future. She knew that whether it was an encounter with people or an encounter with nature, they were the most precious gifts in life, worth cherishing and protecting with all her heart.

On the way back, Qin Wan shot five more rabbits and eight more pheasants. However, this didn't satisfy her. She hoped to catch a bigger prey, but unfortunately, she didn't get what she wanted. However, she wasn't discouraged by this. Instead, she saw it as a challenge and looked forward to the next opportunity.

When she returned to the military compound, before she could go back to her home, she was stopped by Luo Sulan.

"Xiao Qin, come here for a moment. I want to tell you something."

After hearing this, Qin Wan didn't know what Director Luo wanted to discuss with her.

So, she walked over and asked with great trepidation:

"What's the matter, Director Luo?"

Luo Sulan, whom everyone used to call Director Luo, led Qin Wan towards the Women's Federation office. Along the way, Qin Wan would greet and chat with everyone she met.

This friendly attitude won her the favor of everyone and made her feel particularly comfortable.

They arrived at Director Luo's office. Qin Wan looked up and saw two people. Qin Wan couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise:

"Hey, why are you two here?"
