Chapter 885 Decision
Daji wrapped the evidence in oil paper and stuffed it into his arms, keeping it close to his body. Then he stood up and looked around. "It's getting dark. Let's stay here tonight and go out tomorrow morning."
Bai Shan said: "Let's go to the sunny side."
Zhou Silang looked through the contents of the box and asked in confusion, "Strange, why are there only so many things? I remember my uncle said that they asked their friend from the escort agency to take their clothes, fabrics, some books, quilts and other things with them."
Manbao: "...Fourth brother, are you stupid? They are running for their lives. Those things are in the car. Of course they can't take them with them. It's good enough that they can take this box with them."
Zhou Silang thought the same thing, put away his things, hugged them in his arms and said, "Okay, let's go."
"Wait a minute, let's pick the Ganoderma lucidum before we leave."
Zhou Silang blinked. "Ganoderma? What Ganoderma?"
Manbao pointed in a direction and said, "Look, inside that cave, the one we just saw."
Zhou Silang immediately stuffed the box into Bao's arms, rolled up his sleeves and said excitedly, "I'll pick it!"
Manbao squatted outside and gave instructions, "Be careful, don't break it, it's best to pull it up by the roots. Oh, and give me some more soil, I want to study it carefully."
Zhou Silang knew that she liked to deal with these things, so he agreed and then dug the things out.
A large piece of Ganoderma lucidum was carefully handed out. Bai Erlang squatted aside and watched curiously, then quickly took it.
Bai Erlang said, "The story says that this thing can revive the dead."
Man Bao: "It's fake, but the Shennong Herbal Classic says that if you eat it for a long time, you will be light and immortal."
Zhou Silang stared at the Ganoderma Lucidum with shining eyes and said, "But such a precious thing, who can eat it forever? Even the Emperor can't, right?"
Manbao thought about it and said, "It seems that it really can't be done."
Manbao put the things into the backpack. Zhou Silang asked, "Manbao, do you want to sell them?"
"Not for sale." She only had one plant. Although it had a small umbrella cap, it wasn't enough for her to share. After all, she had to give some to Keke and keep some on the forum. Maybe Teacher Mo would want to study it. She said, "We're not short of money right now. I'll dry it and store it for future use."
Zhou Silang thought about it and said, "Yes, let's eat it ourselves. Even if we can't achieve immortality, at least we can live a few more years."
Everyone: ...
When everyone reached the sunny side, Zhou Silang and Daji started looking for firewood to make a fire, while Manbao carried his small backpack to dig plants worth collecting, and Bai Shan followed to help.
Bai Erlang followed them closely, demanding, "We went into the mountains just to look for your uncle's box of things. What did Daji just put away? Don't hide it from me. If we were just looking for something your uncle left behind, why would County Magistrate Yang send someone to help you?"
Bai Shan and Man Bao didn't intend to lie to him, they just wanted to hide it from him and prevent him from knowing more. Seeing that he was thinking about these things now, they could only say: "What Daji put away are my father's things, don't tell anyone."
"Who can I tell in the village now?" Bai Erlang asked, "Why is your father still related to Manbao's uncle? Forget it, I won't ask. You won't tell me even if I ask. Just tell me what you are going to do next."
Bai Shan said: "Send the things out, and then save your own life and the lives of your family."
Man Baoshen felt that points were very important now, and added, "We also need to dig more herbs for future use."
Seeing her even peeling off the bark of a tree, Bai Erlang couldn't help but ask, "Tell me, what kind of medicine is this?"
Manbao looked up at the tall tree in front of him and said thoughtfully, "I don't know yet. I'll tell you when I figure it out."
"No, why are you even picking at the bark now?"
"Not only do I want to peel its bark, I also want to climb up and break its branches and leaves. I have never seen such a tree before."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang stared at the tree in front of them for a long time but couldn't tell how it was different from other trees.
Manbao had already put down her backpack, rolled up her sleeves and started climbing up the tree. Bai Shan and Bai Erlang were not surprised at all and stood at the foot of the tree to encourage her, "Break the branches and throw them down."
Manbao climbed up the tree and not only broke a branch, but also took out two worms from the branches and leaves, and gave them directly to Keke.
She climbed down the tree only after she was done. Zhou Silang saw her from a distance and couldn't help but sigh, thinking that her little sister was too naughty.
Then I thought, this is a good thing. I was worried that she would be sad for a while because of her uncle's matter, but she recovered so quickly.
Manbao was indeed sad, but Koko kept ringing in her head, reminding her of how much she needed to include but hadn't, so Manbao couldn't feel sad.
After recording everything that should be recorded around her, Koko calculated her ability and found that she couldn't go any further, so she stopped the ding-dong sound.
Manbao sat down exhausted by the fire. Bai Shan and Bai Erlang had helped her hoe a lot of things and climb trees, so they were also very tired.
They all sat down on the ground.
Daji was afraid that they would catch a cold, so he moved the fire to another place, and then spread a bunch of large-leafed branches that he and Zhou Silang had picked on the place where the fire was burning, and let the three of them sit on it.
Manbao and the others sat on it out of curiosity, and a warmth came up from the ground. The chill they had felt when they sat on the grass just now disappeared in an instant.
The three of them exclaimed "Wow" and looked at Daji with admiration, "Daji, you are really amazing."
Daji smiled slightly and said, "When I was escorting a caravan, I often slept outdoors. I learned this from our escort leader."
Manbao moved his little butt and said with a smile: "I learned it. If I go on a long trip in the future, I will do the same. This way I won't be cold."
Zhou Silang also stepped forward curiously and squeezed in to feel it.
Then he looked around and said, "There's nothing else in the woods, but there's plenty of firewood. Wait, I'll build a few more fires and give everyone one. Then you can spread out and sleep tonight, instead of huddling together like last night."
The main thing is that he can’t squeeze his youngest sister anymore.
You're all grown up now, why are you still crowding together?
Zhou Silang worked tirelessly and built four fires in one breath. Daji looked at them and did not get involved. Instead, he went through the bags they brought and took out the dry food they brought and heated it up to eat.
Bai Shan and Man Bao discussed, "After we get out, should we send someone to invite County Magistrate Yang, or should we go find County Magistrate Yang?"
Manbao thought for a moment and said, "It's difficult and long to go back the same way. Why don't we go the other way? It should be closer if we take the path from here."
Bai Shan nodded and said, "I think there must be a shortcut in the mountains, but we just don't know it. We can also go out by the small path."
He glanced at Daji quietly, then leaned over to Manbao's ear and whispered, "Let's not go home yet. Let's go directly to the county town to find County Magistrate Yang."
Manbao's eyes flashed, he secretly glanced at Daji, and then nodded.
See you tomorrow
