Chapter 658 What Fate
That small village is still nameless.
The main reason is that no one had ever heard of it before. When those drug dealers went in, they didn't ask about the name of the village, so now when they mention it, they just call it Nameless Village.
It is said that the nameless village is on a small cliff. To get up there, you have to climb a very steep slope. The slope is overgrown with weeds and has many sharp stones, so people from that village rarely come down, and no one goes up there either.
Now they haven't even found that small cliff.
"This forest is very dense, which is strange. There may be a water source in it. It is very humid and cold. At night, the cold air will go straight into your bones. So if you really get lost in it, it will be troublesome."
Dong Huanzhi came with them.
On the way he told them what he had heard.
"We haven't heard of anyone finding the way yet. They don't dare to spend the night in the forest, so they leave people outside the forest and make a fire. If they still can't find the way when it gets dark, they have to go back quickly. They can't stay in the forest."
"Those drug dealers didn't enter from here at first. They wandered in the deep mountains ahead for several days before they accidentally met a villager from that village. They were led into the village, and when they came back, they were escorted out from this forest."
“So they couldn’t go deeper into the mountains anymore. They had to find the way out from here. But at that time, there were villagers leading them out. They didn’t expect that they would not be able to find the way back in, so they didn’t think much about it and didn’t find the way. Now those drug dealers are regretting it very much.”
What do you regret?
Of course it’s because those medicinal herbs can be sold at very high prices.
In fact, those medicine dealers had a truth that they didn't tell. They didn't recognize those medicinal herbs, but the villagers said they wanted to exchange them for some silver. They felt that they were on someone else's territory at the time, and if they didn't agree, who knows what the villagers would do.
So they had no choice but to buy those herbs.
They had never seen those medicinal herbs before, but since they had paid for them, they took them out and took them to the Medicine Alliance to see if they could accept them.
The person who collected medicinal materials in the Medicine Alliance didn't recognize him either, and it was only after Dong Huanzhi was called out that he recognized him.
What those drug dealers regretted was that they didn't charge more at the time.
The villager was thinking if they could stay a few more days so that they could dig some more to sell, but they were afraid to stay there and were in a hurry to leave, so they refused.
If they had known earlier, they would definitely have collected more medicinal herbs. After all, the medicinal herbs in that village were very cheap.
Those villagers didn't ask for too much at all.
Now they wanted to go in again to collect the goods, but they couldn't find the way.
"Are those drug dealers still trying to find a way here?" Fu Zhaoning asked.
Dong Huanzhi nodded, "Of course they are there. We, the Medicine Alliance, offer a high price for the herbs they sell. But now that the news has spread, many people have come here to help us find the village. Even if they can find it, it will probably be difficult for them to get any benefits."
Even if the World Medicine Alliance could directly find those villagers to buy medicinal materials, they would not ask for them from the individual vendors. Wouldn't that mean passing it through one more hand and getting more money? No one would be so stupid.
The carriage stopped outside the forest.
When Fu Zhaoning and his companions got off the car, they saw that there were indeed quite a few carriages parked here, and there were also many people busy making fires, spreading blankets, and setting up tents. It was obvious that they were preparing to spend the night.
The slightly flatter and more sheltered spots have already been occupied.
Dong Huanzhi looked around and pointed in a direction, "Our tent is over there."
Of course he has sent someone over.
Fu Zhaoning and the others followed.
When Mr. Ji appeared, many people recognized him, but it seemed that many people here came to Jicheng from other places and did not recognize Dong Huanzhi.
Along the way, some people greeted Mr. Ji.
"Senior Ji, you are here in Jicheng too?"
"Mr. Ji, I haven't seen you for many years. My master is here too."
They greeted Mr. Ji, and then looked at Dong Huanzhi and were able to roughly guess his identity.
But when they saw Fu Zhaoning again, their eyes lit up. They didn't know him, but they could guess who he was, but they couldn't be sure.
Along the way, many people's eyes fell on Fu Zhaoning.
Fu Zhaoning looked back.
Just before getting off the carriage, Xiao Lanyuan told her that he would watch her in the dark without showing his face.
Fu Zhaoning thought about his identity, and then remembered that Emperor Dahe had even painted a portrait of him and was looking for him, so he did not object.
Now seeing so many people staring at her in this resting place, she felt that Xiao Lanyuan's decision was right.
If he walked beside her, he would be exposed immediately.
But there are a lot of people here now, and she doesn’t know where Xiao Lanyuan is hiding.
"Zhao——"
A voice sounded, paused, then turned around and called her.
"Miss Fu."
Fu Zhaoning looked in the direction of the voice and saw Situ Bai in a crescent-shaped white robe.
Situ Bai came so quickly?
She didn't know what to say for a moment. Was it just fate that she and Situ Bai were together? It seemed like she would always run into him.
Old Ji also looked over in the direction of the voice, and when he saw Situ Bai, the old man couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Zhao Ning, please ignore him."
He didn't know what was going on with Situ Bai. He used to be known as a handsome and elegant young man, but why did he always feel that Situ Bai was just a clingy and ignorant young man in front of Fu Zhaoning?
"Master, let's follow Second Brother closely."
Fu Zhaoning just nodded slightly towards Situ Bai from a distance. Even as a greeting, she didn't even think about chatting with him.
Now she and Xiao Lanyuan are in love.
Could she still go and chat with Situ Bai? Xiao Lanyuan was already quite bothered by Situ Bai. As a sensible girlfriend, she had to keep a distance from other men and give her boyfriend enough sense of security.
Fu Zhaoning supported Mr. Ji and quickly caught up with Dong Huanzhi.
Dong Huanzhi actually stopped and looked at Situ Bai, then turned back to ask Fu Zhaoning in surprise, "Junior Sister and Master Situ——"
"Nothing! Just go your own way, why do you care so much?" Old Ji glared at him.
There are quite a few outsiders around here. Is he asking this question at this time to cause trouble for Zhao Ning? Sure enough, none of his disciples are as flexible as Zhao Ning.
Dong Huanzhi reacted, but didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly took them to the tent arranged by the disciples of the World Medicine Alliance.
