Gong Baorou looked back, and the village was shrouded in greenery, looking vibrant. She walked back unhurriedly, and met Qiu Niang who was probing her brain halfway.

"Qiu Niang?" Gong Baorou beckoned to her. Qiu Niang is about eight years old this year, and Shi is only five years old.

Qiu Niang trotted over and whispered, "Sister Arou." ”

Gong Baorou led her back and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"I'm worried that Sister Arou will get lost, Sister Arou, are you from a big city?" Qiu Niang asked with a small face.

Gong Baorou smiled and nodded: "I'm from the center of Haicheng." ”

Qiu Niang's face showed a look of envy: "City center? That must be fun, right? ”

Gong Baorou smiled, she didn't know how to answer for a while, she thought for a moment, and said: "There will be more people in the city center, but it may not be more fun than here." ”

"That's ......" Qiu Niang seemed thoughtful. Gong Baorou didn't know what she understood, and the two of them slowly returned to the village chief's house.

The village chief's family are all very kind people, and Sister-in-law Li has already cleaned out a room, and Gong Baorou can smell the smell of sunshine on the quilt when she takes a nap. At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Gong Baorou was already ready to go out to find ingredients. There are indeed a lot of high-quality ingredients in Dushui Village, but most of them are artificially raised, so Gong Baorou has set her sights on those gifts from nature.

It was still Qiu Niang who led the way, Uncle Li and Sister-in-law Li seemed to be very relieved of Qiu Niang, and just gave a few words. Uncle Li saw Gong Baorou's slightly puzzled look, thinking that she didn't believe Qiu Niang very much, so he said: "Qiu Niang has been playing here since she can walk and run, and no one in this neighborhood knows better than her." The outskirts of the forest near the village are cleaned up every year, and there will be no problems. ”

Gong Baorou nodded, glanced at Qiu Niang's little arms and legs, and decided in her heart that she would protect her well.

Gong Baorou and Qiu Niang are along a mountain road, at first it was a road for three people to walk in parallel, and slowly it became a trace that only one person could walk through, and there was grass on both sides. Gong Baorou planned to go ahead by herself at first, but after seeing Qiu Niang easily stick a snake that ran out of nowhere with a stick, she obediently followed behind Qiu Niang.

"This snake is non-venomous, we call it an earth snake, and some daring children dare to grab it and eat it." Qiu Niang tied the snake and put it in a bag and threw it into the bamboo basket behind her.

Since it is to go up the mountain, the equipment is naturally very complete. Gong Baorou and Qiu Niang both carried a bamboo basket and a small bag around their waists, which contained some homemade wound medicine and insect repellent medicine, and Qiu Niang also brought a few tools, looking very professional.

Gong Baorou nodded. She was just startled by the snake that suddenly came out, and after looking closely, she knew that it was a non-venomous snake.

"There's fungus here!" Qiu Niang happily ran towards a place and carefully dug something out.

Gong Baorou observed it and found that it was a rotten banyan tree, and it was normal for fungus to appear on it. Qiu Niang sat the fungus and handled it simply, and then put it in the back basket, but when she saw that Gong Baorou was still empty-handed, she was a little embarrassed.

"Sister Arou, is this fungus for you?"

Gong Baorou touched her head and refused with a smile: "No need, it's still early." ”

Qiu Niang nodded shyly and walked inside with Gong Baorou. Of course, there won't be anything good outside, Qiu Niang picked some fungus and mushrooms, although it was a small harvest, but it was not what Gong Baorou wanted.

"Further inside, there is the Dushui River, which we call the mother river of Dushui Village, which nourishes our Dushui Village."

Got a river? Gong Baorou's eyes lit up.

Qiu Niang took Gong Baorou to the river, and after Gong Baorou arrived at the destination, she felt that this should be a small stream. The Dushui River she saw was less than three meters wide, and the water was murmuring and crystal clear.

"Sister Arou, don't look at it now, it's just a tributary, a little higher, you can see the merging of the two tributaries, there will definitely be something Sister Arou wants." Qiu Niang is small, but she is very clever and smart. She knew that Zhao Pengcheng had a purpose in bringing Gong Baorou here, and she also knew what she was looking for.

"Don't worry, I'll find it." Gong Baorou said with some expectation. Suddenly, a very slight fluctuation shook her body.

I can't tell what this fluctuation is, but it has penetrated Gong Baorou's body and directly collided with her spirit, making her face pale and a feeling of nausea suddenly arises. But like a temptation, a warning, this fluctuation was only for a moment, and it quickly disappeared into invisibility, but it only made Gong Baorou suffer a small and small dark loss.

"Hmm!" Gong Baorou shook her head, barely making herself feel better.

Qiu Niang noticed it carefully, and asked a little nervously: "Sister Arou, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing." Gong Baorou replied calmly, "It's probably because I took a good nap at noon, and I'm still a little sleepy." As he spoke, he yawned.

Qiu Niang sneered and laughed: "Sister Arou is so lazy." ”

Gong Baorou forced a few laughs, and her eyes moved. She looked up at the dense woods, pointed to a place about a few dozen meters ahead, and asked, "What is that place?" ”

Qiu Niang looked at it for a while and replied, "It should be a relatively large tributary of the Dushui River." ”

"Can we go there?"

Qiu Niang hesitated, and Gong Baorou frowned: "It's dangerous there?" ”

"Not dangerous, not dangerous." Qiu Niang hurriedly shook her head and said, "I often go there, but people died there a few years ago, and some people say that the feng shui there is not good." As he spoke, he was afraid that Gong Baorou would be afraid, and whispered a few words, "I often go there, and I caught fish for the stones to eat a few days ago, and the fish there are delicious." ”

"Yes...... Gong Baorou's heart was calculated, "let's go there and have a look." ”

"Uh-huh." Qiu Niang nodded hurriedly and walked up with Gong Baorou.

When Gong Baorou left again, she squatted down, poured out the water in the bottled water, and then filled it with a little river water. Gong Baorou originally wanted to take a sip, but to be on the safe side, she closed the lid tightly and put the bottle in the back basket.

She suddenly had a hunch that the biggest gain from this trip must be here!
