Chapter 180 Suitable to be the King of the Mountain



When Ye Linxing came back from chatting with Jian's father, she had already started playing chess with Zhou Gong.

Maybe it was because she didn't finish her words, but except for the birds coming over to patrol, the whole night was peaceful until dawn.

After breakfast, Uncle San and his friends returned with their prey.

The team was left with only Jian Yuelan and his son, Ye Linxing, Jian Zhengdong and Wu Bo.

"Let's go."

Without Jiang Yuan and the others who were holding them back, Jian Yuelan let herself go and led her men deep into the mountains.

Ye Linxing looked at Jian Yuelan, who was walking briskly in front of him and exuded a joyful aura, and sighed, "I feel that my wife is suitable to be the king of the mountain."

"She already did."

Jian Zhengbei's voice came from the left.

"When did it happen?"

“That happened many years ago.”

Father Jian continued, "She's already covered all of Daqingshan. She knows everything there is to know. The old leader of the mountain-releasing team next door, Yanhe Datou, was about to step down because of his age, and he even considered asking her to take over."

"If I remember correctly, there are no women in Fangshan?"

"No."

There has never been such a thing since ancient times.

“So Zhizhi didn’t become the leader.”

"She refused it herself?"

"She refused, and the other herders also disagreed."

Ye Linxing was quite unconvinced. "This is a feudal custom. The teacher also said that women hold up half the sky. Our Zhizhi is so capable, so what's wrong with being the head girl?"

"What's there to do?"

Jian Yuelan didn't care. "Being the head means responsibility. It's so relaxing to be alone in the mountains. Why would I want to shoulder such a huge responsibility?"

Not wanting to continue this topic, she pulled Ye Linxing over and pointed forward, "Come, let me test you. Can you tell what kind of animal footprints those are?"

This question was beyond Ye Linxing's scope. He shook his head and said, "I can't recognize it."

"fox."

When Jian Yuelan gave the answer, Ye Linxing couldn't believe it and looked at Jian's father and the others, "Is he really a fox?"

Uncle Wu hummed, "Zhizhi is right, it's a fox."

Pointing to the marks beside him, he said, "That's a pheasant, that's a flying dragon, that's a silly roe deer, that's a deer..."

He talked incessantly, explaining everything from depth and span to shape identification in detail.

In addition, Uncle Wu has a unique skill. He can judge the age of the creatures that left the footprints by looking at the footprints of various animals.

Jian Yuelan had been studying this unique skill for many years but still couldn't master it.

“Huh?!”

Suddenly, she caught sight of a set of footprints from the corner of her eye. Jian Yuelan rushed over and discovered that she had never seen these footprints before. She was surprised and said, "Fifth Uncle, come here quickly. What kind of animal's footprints are these?"

"Let me take a look."

Uncle Wu came over and frowned. "This footprint is a bit strange. Judging from the size, it should be the mark of a small or medium-sized animal. I can't find any corresponding footprints of known creatures. It feels a bit like a bear, but it's not... Ouch—Come and take a look. What kind of animal is this?"

Then, a group of people gathered together to study the footprints.

“No.”

These footprints were completely unfamiliar, and I had never seen anything similar before.

Jian Yuelan stroked her chin thoughtfully, "Could it be that some strange animals have come to Daqing Mountain?"

No one can answer this question.

The main reason is that Daqingshan is too large and there are many mountains around it. No one knows how many species of creatures live here.

Who are coming and going?

"Stop studying and hurry up."

After studying for a long time without any clue, Mr. Jian stood up and greeted.

So the five of them continued their unfinished journey.

But as she walked, a dark brown figure suddenly entered Jian Yuelan's sight.
