"I'm off now, take care of yourself!"
"Okay, I understand. I'll just wander around around here for a bit, and then I'll head back!"
Seeing these people rushing forward like they were on steroids, Jiang Xile didn't want to join in the fun.
A woman was strolling at the foot of the mountain with a bamboo basket in her hand when, unexpectedly, she stumbled upon a grove of mushrooms.
Looking at the cute little mushroom-shaped mounds on the ground, Jiang Xile happily collected them all into the bamboo basket.
It would be a sin to refuse something given by Heaven; how could she possibly turn her back on it!
The small bamboo basket was not big, but it was full after picking all the mushrooms in this area. Jiang Xile then continued to stroll around leisurely.
Unbeknownst to her, Jiang Xile walked to a large tree. The tree was so thick that Jiang Xile couldn't even wrap her arms around it.
The tree was exceptionally tall; I estimated it to be at least five meters high.
But just then, Jiang Xile noticed something growing in the middle of the tree.
Upon closer inspection, she unexpectedly spotted a Ganoderma lucidum, a wild Ganoderma lucidum, which is a valuable find.
Looking at the towering tree, Jiang Xile put her small bamboo basket on the ground and prepared to climb up to pick Ganoderma lucidum.
With Jiang Xile's skills, climbing a tree is naturally not a big problem.
"Cough cough..."
Jiang Xile tugged at his sleeves, clapped his hands, and made all the necessary preparations.
He took a few steps back, then ran forward, kicking the tree roots with his feet for leverage, and jumped more than a meter high.
Holding onto the tree with both hands, Jiang Xile used the branches and trunk for support and climbed up little by little.
Just as he was about to reach the Ganoderma lucidum, a huge snake, as thick as an arm, suddenly appeared from the side.
Good heavens, the snake's color is almost the same as tree bark; no wonder I didn't notice it.
The bright red forked tongue protruded, and the vertical pupils were particularly eerie.
Jiang Xile disliked these cold-blooded animals and involuntarily got goosebumps all over her body.
The man and the snake faced off in the tree, one wanting to harvest the treasure, the other wanting to protect it.
The giant snake coiled in the tree, holding a natural advantage, but Jiang Xile was different; hanging in the tree required a lot of physical strength.
The longer the stalemate lasts, the fewer advantages she has.
