Chapter 272 The Great Melee, the Winners of Life
Wen Xiaoxiao desperately wanted to open her handbag and see if the box she had found was still there, but unfortunately, she didn't dare.
Kong Wange continued to fan the flames, saying, "Zhao Xiaohe, you can only blame yourself for being stupid. Xiaoxiao and I did have some conflicts before, but we are sisters by blood. Who do you think you are? You don't actually think my cousin is genuinely cooperating with you, do you? You're just a free henchman on our way to steal ginseng!"
Zhao Xiaohe's lips trembled as she addressed Wang Hui and the others behind Wen Xiaoxiao: "Xiaohui, you all heard what they said. Now, which side are you on?"
"Wen Xiaoxiao, you betrayed your sister, you're such a green tea b*tch!"
"Pah, you big white lotus!"
Immediately, apart from Li Jing, the four people led by Wang Hui all walked over and stood behind Zhao Xiaohe.
Seeing that the groundwork had been laid, Kong Wange snatched Wen Xiaoxiao's handbag and shoved the box into Wen Xiaoxiao's hand: "Cousin, I'll hold your bag for you. You take the ginseng and run ahead. I'll hold them off!"
"you……"
Before Wen Xiaoxiao could say anything, Zhao Xiaohe rushed forward and slapped her hard across the face: "Heh, Wen Xiaoxiao, if you want to run away, leave the ginseng behind first!"
Seeing that things were not going well, Li Jing was about to step forward to protect Wen Xiaoxiao, but unfortunately, the four sisters behind Zhao Xiaohe were not to be trifled with either, and they surrounded him, scratching and clawing.
Although Li Jing was a boy, he was trapped in a four-on-one situation for a short time.
The group scuffled for a short while.
Two more groups of people suddenly emerged from the dense forest.
One of the ordinary people leading the Ling Shu competition shouted, "Brothers and sisters, those two bitches Wen Xiaoxiao and Zhao Xiaohe have indeed slept together! Quick, let's unite and take back the ginseng they stole from us!"
Another group, composed of scions of prominent families, also shouted, "Zhao Xiaohe is over there! Quickly grab the century-old wild ginseng!"
Wen Xiaoxiao's group was startled when they saw a large group of people rushing over.
In an instant... a feud between sisters escalated into a chaotic three-way brawl!
Everyone started fighting, and ginseng flew everywhere.
During the struggle, some observant students even urged everyone, "Classmates, don't hit their faces, the teacher will easily notice and hit you."
Wen Xiaoxiao, Zhao Xiaohe, and the others were forced to unite again and begin to face external threats together.
Amidst the chaos, Kong Wange quietly retreated to the side, took the peach wood box from Wen Xiaoxiao's handbag, and casually tossed it behind her. Chen Ge, who was hiding in the dense forest, immediately rushed out to meet her.
As soon as she finished throwing it, someone noticed her immediately, and two or three people surrounded her. Kong Wange very tactfully tossed Wen Xiaoxiao's handbag in front of them: "The ginseng that was stolen from you is inside. Please help yourselves."
After saying that, she turned and left, leaving behind nothing but a clean conscience, her merits and fame hidden.
Kong Wange returned to the group of Leng Jun and the other two.
Chen Ge handed over the peach wood box: "Master Kong, here, your ginseng!"
Kong Wange took the box, opened it to check that everything was correct, and put it into her handbag. Then she said to the three people, "After the chaos is over, Wen Xiaoxiao and the others will realize that I tricked them. Now that the century-old ginseng is with me, it's not safe for you to follow me. Let's part ways here."
"That won't do!" the three of them refused, showing their loyalty.
Kong Wange continued to persuade, "The four of us are too conspicuous. It's easier for me to hide by myself. Don't worry, I grew up in the mountains. They won't be able to catch me."
As she spoke, she opened her handbag and took out about a dozen peach wood boxes, placing them on the ground.
The three people were stunned.
Leng Jun couldn't help but ask, "Kong, why do you have so many peach wood boxes in your bag?"
Kong Wange said, "The general store down the mountain was having a promotion. They were selling them for five yuan each or five for ten yuan. I thought they were perfect for preserving ginseng, so I bought thirty-five of them before I went up the mountain."
The three of them: "..."
The thought of the three of them simply tossing ginseng into their bags made Leng Jun exclaim, "You're so meticulous!"
"I'm only so meticulous when it comes to medicinal herbs." Kong Wange pointed to the peach wood boxes on the ground and said, "These boxes are filled with ginseng that I dug up before. You three can take them and divide them up."
The three refused: "That won't do."
Kong Wange smiled and said, "Don't refuse. I was able to get the century-old ginseng back this time thanks to the three of you. Besides, I have no use for so many ginsengs. With this century-old ginseng as a foundation, I should have no problem getting into the experimental class. Don't worry, see you in the experimental class."
Leng Jun stopped being coy and joined in making the decision for Zhu Juchen, accepting the ginseng with a smile: "I'll treat you to a meal when we get out."
"Okay, it's a deal. I'll be leaving now, and you should all get out of here quickly too."
Kong Wange grabbed her handbag and slipped away stealthily.
After she left, the three glanced at the chaotic battlefield and also left one after another.
...
On the battlefield, the fighting and looting were fierce and inseparable.
Until someone shouted, "Zhao Xiaohe doesn't have any ginseng in her bag!"
Then another voice shouted, "The peach wood box is empty too! Maybe the century-old ginseng was just a hoax or someone stole it. We've all been fooled!"
"Holy crap!"
"..."
As a result, the group of scions of prominent families came and went quickly.
Upon discovering there were no century-old ginseng to be found, they grabbed a few leftovers and left without a trace.
For a moment, only Wen Xiaoxiao, Zhao Xiaohe and their group, as well as a few ordinary students from the Ling Shu Competition, remained on the field.
These ordinary students took advantage of the chaos to snatch back the ginseng they had lost earlier.
At this point, seeing that their helpers had left, they all lost their will to fight and left as well.
Both Zhao Xiaohe and Wen Xiaoxiao's people were exhausted and collapsed to the ground.
Zhao Xiaohe's hair was disheveled, Wen Xiaoxiao's clothes were torn, and everyone present was in a sorry state.
Wen Xiaoxiao took a breath and looked at Zhao Xiaohe with a raised eyebrow: "Are you sick? Why did you have to come here to cause trouble? Now look what happened, you've come up empty-handed. That hundred-year-old ginseng must have been switched and stolen by that village girl Kong Wange!"
Zhao Xiaohe glanced at the empty peach wood box that Kong Wange had shoved into Wen Xiaoxiao's hand. She knew in her heart that she had fallen for Kong Wange's scheme to sow discord. But Wen Xiaoxiao was not necessarily innocent either. She immediately sneered: "You blame me? Ha, Wen Xiaoxiao, if you hadn't wanted to keep the century-old ginseng for yourself and deliberately not tell us after you found it, would Kong Wange have had this opportunity?"
Wen Xiaoxiao's face stiffened. Knowing she was in the wrong, she was rendered speechless by the rebuttal.
Li Jing, who was lying down, sat up and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, let's all stop arguing. The most important thing right now is to find Kong Wange and get the century-old ginseng back!"
"right!"
Wen Xiaoxiao slammed the substitute box in her hand down hard. The box hit a rock and shattered into pieces instantly.
She gritted her teeth and said, "That bitch Kong Wange has played us for fools. We absolutely cannot let her get away with this so easily!"
