Chapter 7: Go to the Higashijin Wild Forest

On the second day, after breakfast, Xue Langjing went to the kitchen to get the cloth bag prepared for her, which contained the lunch she had to eat on the mountain at noon.

Secretly hid two nests in each of the sisters' rooms, and Xue Langjing went out with a backpack on her back and tools such as bows and arrows, machetes, and hoes.

The whole village is located at the foot of the East Shen Ye Forest, the East Shen Ye Forest is a huge mountain range, it runs through almost half of the Chu State, and it is said that this endless, almost split the Chu State in half of the mountain range is only the eastern corner of the whole mountain range, no one knows how big the whole complete mountain range is, the East Shen Ye Forest is called only this section of the Chu State, and the part that passes through other Fan Bang countries also has its own name in its territory.

There are an unknown number of villages like Zhaojia Village that surround the foot of Yelin Mountain.

Everyone knows that the Higashi-Kamino Forest is rich in wild animals, medicinal herbs, and various natural ingredients.

But in the same way, the danger inside the wild forest also deeply frightened people, and people are full of fear of it, so that ordinary people do not dare to enter it at all, and only hunters dare to step into it, and at most they dare to hunt at the edge of the wild forest.

The East Shen Wild Forest is also the place where Zheng Wen, the founder of the Zheng family's firm, made his career, and the resources in the early stage of her entire life were obtained from this wild forest.

Before that, the people were very afraid of the Divine Vein Wild Forest, because its interior was too mysterious, and this wild forest did not know how many intruders' lives had been devoured, causing people to dare not set foot in the depths at all.

In the places where the hunters walked on the periphery, in addition to the wild things that ran out of the depths of the wild forest, there were not many other resources left, but Zheng Wen was able to find a large number of fruit tree crops and medicinal materials from them, and it is still a mystery to imagine how many places her footsteps have traveled that people have never visited, and how strong her ability is.

Because of her development, the wealth is really moving, and it also makes many ambitious people eager to conquer it in the East God Wild Forest, with the continuous influx of conquerors, the benefits of the strength of the people are revealed, and the accumulation of generation after generation has also opened up a lot of behavioral routes, allowing people to enter the treasure hunt.

Especially in recent decades, the imperial court's harsh taxes have become heavier and heavier, and if there is another natural disaster or something, the people are basically in a state of hunger.

In this way, more people will take risks, with the mentality that it is better to be matured to death by wild beasts than to starve to death, to join this treasure house of nature's gift to find life, and to widen the path that people can walk in this wild forest.

But this does not include Zhaojia Village, even all the villages and towns in Fengqing County, where Zhaojia Village is located, have not been developed, and these places are still in the primitive state of having the most hunters around the very edge to make tooth sacrifices.

There is no treasure mountain and can not enter, the tax burden is heavy, coupled with God's eyes from time to time, so that the harvest of the people's fields is also up and down, and the fields in their hands are thinner year by year.

Therefore, Zhaojia Village is very poor.

The wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain can be dug up by every household, and the Xue sisters can find very little every time, not enough to eat at all, and only in the wild forest, except for hunters, ordinary people dare not go in, and the resources are much richer, and Xue Langjing is also responsible for digging wild vegetables every time in addition to hunting, who told her to hunt so little.

The hunters in the village will generally act collectively, once a medium every five days, once a large half a month, and the collective action can go deeper, the deeper they enter, not only more prey, but also larger prey, such as roe deer, roe deer, wild goats, etc., and even sometimes lucky, you can also see wild boars, deer, and even lone wolves, as well as all kinds of dangerous beasts, and outside, you can only hit small animals such as pheasants, wild ducks, rabbits, bamboo rats.

In addition to group hunting, there are usually people who go alone in the mountains to hunt some small animals on the outside, or dig up some wild vegetables and common herbs.

However, there are not many people who act alone, because not only is there little harvest, but there is no helper in case of encountering dangerous animals that come out of the depths.

Of course, there are also experienced hunters who dare to go up the mountain alone, but often these hunters do not bother to have such a small thing on the periphery, as long as they participate in collective action, it is generally enough for them to eat and drink.

Like Xue Langjing, you have to go if you don't want to, especially in the past two years, the family has less and less land, and there is even more lack of food, except for rainy weather and some days in winter when it is really inconvenient to move, I have to go almost every day.

Not long after she went out, the two brothers Xue Yuhe went to the Jiangliu family with the marriage certificate to dissolve their relationship.

After two meals of food and drink in a row, Xue Langjing felt that she had never had such vigorous energy, not only with great strength, but also with sufficient energy, walking a little briskly, and even hearing and vision were much better, and she walked to the periphery of the wild forest without breathing in one breath.

She walked quickly to the edge of the periphery, and after entering the wild forest, no matter how periphery it was, she didn't dare to walk any faster, and her movements slowed down, and at this time she had to see and hear all directions, holding a machete in her hand, and carrying a bow and arrow on her shoulder.

In the wild forest, you must not rush away, no matter how safe you think it is, because you don't know when medium and large beasts will run out of the mountain.

And the outermost wild things are also rare, and in most cases, Xue Langjing is mainly looking for wild vegetables, wild fruits and common herbs.

There is a miracle about this huge wild forest that people can't even imagine, that is, its periphery still follows the seasons, but the deeper you go, the more likely it is to go against the season, and you can see flowers, fruits, plants and trees in any season, but unfortunately human beings are too small to enjoy this gift of nature.

The people at the bottom, usually if they have a small illness or something, they don't have the spare money to go to the doctor to get medicine, either wait for it to heal itself or go to the mountains to look for herbs, even if there is no right taste, they can find something else, go to the barefoot doctor in the village to exchange for what they need.

Therefore, some common cheap herbs, most people know, even if they are not needed, they can be stored just in case, or go directly to the barefoot doctor to exchange a few copper plates.

Because of Xue Langjing, the Xue family goes to the mountains almost every day, so the herbs they usually pick are saved and then used by Xue Milk to exchange copper plates for medicinal materials.

Today, because of the brisk pace before, Xue Langjing arrived early, as soon as he entered the mountains and forests, he started to work, his eyes looked for wild vegetables and weeds, his ears always listened to the movements around him, and he looked around from time to time.
