After going up the mountain, Tian Yuzhu and Shi Zhentang chose to walk along the mountain road as much as possible. It was meaningless for them to search in the forest at this time after being searched by the village party secretary and others.
There was no way they would find anything, and it was dangerous to go deep into the forest in the dark.
From time to time along the way, they could hear the rustling sounds of small animals moving in the woods nearby. Fortunately, both of them were much braver than ordinary people, so they remained calm.
"Kong Xingbai and the others have started hunting in the mountains again these two days. I don't know if Lao Hei and the others have hidden in the mountains. If so, we can only try our luck," said Tian Yuzhu.
"Watch your step and see what's going on with Lao Hei."
Going up the mountain late at night, his wife was still pregnant, and Shi Zhentang was always worried.
He didn't dare to leave his wife's side, and the flashlight in his hand was shining on the road in front of her.
"Don't worry, it's not like I haven't carried out missions at night before, and I've practiced my eyesight in the dark a lot." Tian Yuzhu talked about the past with ease.
Shi Zhentang suddenly felt sorry for his wife: "That capitalist is really cruel. He asked a girl like you to carry out a mission in the middle of the night."
Tian Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mr. is not the kind of capitalist you imagine. Although he is the richest man in the world, he is also a great philanthropist."
"So you asked the One-Eyed Dragon about someone with the surname Gong, hoping to find out if there were any traces of him in this era?"
"That's right. I vaguely remember Mr. Gong mentioning that he lived in Shuochi Town as a child, so I thought Shuochi Town might be his hometown. But unfortunately, according to the information given to me by One-Eyed Dragon, there are no families with the surname Gong from Shuochi Town to the county seat."
Just when Tian Yuzhu was about to say something, she suddenly stopped and said, "Zhentang, do you smell it?"
"What?"
Thinking it was the scent of a wolf, Shi Zhentang immediately went on alert.
Although his wife has always regarded Lao Hei as a "good friend", how can a beast be compared with a human? No one can tell when it will become ferocious and lose its temper. At the moment, protecting his wife is his only thought.
Tian Yuzhu suddenly smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I just smelled the scent of ginseng. Let's go over there."
Shi Zhentang: “…”
He walked forward a few steps with his wife's support and stopped at the side of a ravine. Tian Yuzhu reached forward and lifted up some dense bushes that were blocking the way, revealing a bunch of bright and eye-catching ginseng flowers.
"See, I was right!"
"...Yuzhu, you really... I'm convinced."
Shi Zhentang was so impressed by his wife's luck that he said, "Grandma is right. You are the reincarnation of a lucky star. People in the village go up the mountain to hunt for herbs every day and still can't find them, but you can find them just by smelling them."
Tian Yuzhu said cheerfully: "It's just right, I won't sell this ginseng. I have wild pheasants at home, I'll make soup with them tomorrow."
As she spoke, she picked up a wooden stick and tried to pry it open. The man would never let her do this, so he took the stick and started prying.
A mud trench was quickly dug, and slowly the main body of the ginseng and its roots and roots were revealed.
Tian Yuzhu laughed even harder: "Good boy, it must have taken at least three hundred years."
Shi Zhentang twitched his lips. "Now that you mention it, I have to dig more carefully. It would be a pity if even one whisker is missing."
"It's okay. Just dig slowly. The longer we stay in the mountains, the more Lao Hei will be able to smell my scent."
“…”
Finally, the whole ginseng was dug out. Shi Zhentang picked a few larger leaves, wrapped them in layers and put them in his clothes pocket.
"Yuzhu, let me ask you a question."
"Okay, go ahead." Tian Yuzhu put her hands around his neck and let him help her stand up.
"You said you had such a bizarre experience and such great abilities, but why did God let you meet me? I'm so ordinary, so common, and I can do nothing but be a soldier..."
"You are neither ordinary nor common. You defend your country and wear military uniform. Just for this reason, I like you. God didn't make a mistake. On the contrary, he helped me make the right choice."
"Really?" The man's heart was like winter snow meeting summer, melting in an instant.
"real."
“…”
Shi Zhentang lowered his head and eagerly kissed those cherry red lips...
Uh, um...that's not right. They came here to look for someone.
Tian Yuzhu noticed something strange out of the corner of her eye and quickly pushed the man away: "Zhentang..."
"Hmm." The man hadn't kissed enough, and his voice was wet with panting.
"The wolf is coming!"
“…”Damn wolf, why didn’t it come earlier or later? Such a romantic and beautiful time was broken just like that.
Shi Zhentang forced himself to suppress his emotions and raised his head, suddenly becoming speechless.
There were quite a few of them coming. There were no less than a dozen pairs of cold wolf eyes flashing in the forest.
So just now they... were being watched.
Shi Zhentang's next reaction was to quickly grab the machete at his waist. Wolves have no humanity, and no one knows what will happen next.
"Don't be nervous." Tian Yuzhu reminded him softly, and she took two steps forward. "Lao Hei, I need your help going up the mountain tonight. Can you please come out and see me?"
After a while, a rustling sound was heard in the woods.
Lao Hei strolled out of the woods, his eyes still as cold and calm as before, but in that coldness, one could see a hint of hostility.
It saw Shi Zhentang and naturally remembered that he had shot it once.
Seeing that Lao Hei's intentions seemed amiss, Tian Yuzhu cleverly stepped back two steps and blocked Shi Zhentang's way. "He is my husband. Xiao Hei is in our home now, raised by my husband and me. If you don't believe me, just smell it. He also has Xiao Hei's scent on him."
Lao Hei had a skeptical expression and walked around the couple.
Tian Yuzhu was not idle, and continued: "All the food for Xiao Hei at home is earned by my husband's hard work, you should thank him."
At the same time, the wolves in the forest were already making unfriendly low growls.
Shi Zhentang quickly protected Tian Yuzhu behind him and said, "You run first."
Tian Yuzhu shook her head: "I believe in Lao Hei's choice." Her next words sounded like a threat, but also a promise: "Don't worry, Lao Hei, the next time we go back to Quanshui Village, I will definitely bring Xiao Hei back for you."
What she meant was, if you dare to hurt my man, you will never see Xiao Hei again in this life.
I don’t know if a wolf can understand, but fortunately Lao Hei is not an ordinary wolf.
When it turned for the third time, it slowly slowed down its pace and finally stood in front of the couple, with the hostility in its eyes fading a little.
I never thought that this wolf could let go of his hatred for his son.
Shi Zhentang was amazed at what he saw.
He decided to extend an olive branch: "Don't worry, Lao Hei, Xiao Hei is doing well now. He is very smart and can even hunt!"
After hearing this, Lao Hei's eyes lit up. He seemed to be very interested in this topic and walked up to Shi Zhentang, lowering his head and saying, "..."
It looks like it's saying, "Say a few more words."
