Chapter 18: Don’t Let This Girl Run Away (2/2)



She didn't have much left, but as a soldier fighting for the country's interests, she was willing to give it all.

Su Miaomiao stuffed the three slices of ginseng in her hand into Lu Xiuyuan's arms.

"This is a ginseng slice that is nearly 600 years old. If you feel like you can't hold on any longer, just put one in your mouth."

Lu Xiuyuan looked at the ginseng slices in his hand. They were bright in color and were obviously a rare treasure.

"...Thank you." Lu Xiuyuan said in a hoarse voice.

"That's enough. I've done everything I can. As for whether you can survive, it depends on your luck." After Su Miaomiao finished everything, she picked up her backpack and prepared to leave.

"What's your name?" Lu Xiuyuan looked at her back and asked subconsciously.

Su Miaomiao turned around, and that charming face seemed to glow in the dark forest, so dazzling that Lu Xiuyuan thought that everything he had just experienced was just a picture he imagined before he died.

"If you can survive, I will tell you." Su Miaomiao smiled and turned away.

It took Lu Xiuyuan a while to come back to his senses. All around him was silent.

If it weren't for the three slices of ginseng lying in his palm, he would really think he was hallucinating.

Lu Xiuyuan put a piece of ginseng in his mouth, and the fragrance with a slight bitter taste instantly filled his entire mouth.

My body, which was already exhausted, miraculously recovered some strength at this moment.

Lu Xiuyuan hid the remaining two slices of ginseng in his pocket, supported himself by a tree beside him, and stood up unsteadily.

He had to go further...

After Su Miaomiao came down from the mountain, she found a stream and cleaned the blood off her body. After making sure that there was nothing unusual, she carried the basket back to Old Man Zhao's home.

"Girl, you're finally back. You've been gone for so long that I thought you were lost." Old Man Zhao was originally planning to go to the mountain to find Su Miaomiao.

Unexpectedly, she came back just as I was about to go out.

"We found a lot of medicinal herbs today, so it took us a little longer." Su Miaomiao took down the backpack.

When Old Man Zhao saw that the backpack was almost full, his eyes widened instantly.

"You dug so much? Did you go deep into the mountains?"

"The area at the foot of the mountain and the sides of the mountain have been cleared out. If we want to dig up medicinal herbs, we can only go deep into the mountains." Su Miaomiao did not hide it.

"Girl, what if you run into danger so deep alone? Next time..." Old Man Zhao wanted to tell her not to go next time, but when he saw the basket full of herbs, he changed his mind and said, "Next time I'll find someone to go with you."

These are life-saving things, we have to find them.

He originally just wanted to test Su Miaomiao's ability in traditional Chinese medicine, so he didn't ask anyone to accompany him.

I didn't expect that she was proficient in both Chinese and Western medicine. If I had known this, I should have found a few more people to go with her. Maybe we could have brought back more medicinal herbs.

But with Su Miaomiao, there is no need to rush.

"Miao girl, you take a rest aside. I will take care of these herbs." Old man Zhao poured out all the herbs with a smile.

The more I looked, the more shocked I was. In addition to some common medicinal herbs, there were also many particularly precious ones.

The girl from Beijing was definitely not comparable to people from the mountains like them.

You have to tell the village chief Tutu and ask them to take care of Tuhuo's family.

We can't let this girl run away.

"By the way, Grandpa Zhao, how far is the inkstone from us?" Su Miaomiao sat on the steps nearby, watching Old Man Zhao carefully sorting the medicinal materials, and asked casually.

"Mo Yu? That's far away. Why are you asking this?" Old man Zhao didn't even raise his head.

"Nothing. I just went to the county last time and felt that there was nothing in the supply and marketing cooperative there, so I thought about going there to take a look." Su Miaomiao made up an excuse.
