Chapter 9: Broken Jade

"Alas, don't cry! Alas, you girls are in trouble! All right! We're going to scare her! Jiang Chao saw that the girl he liked was crying, and his swarthy face suddenly turned red, scratching his head, and he had to compromise.

"That's pretty much it." Gu Xinru immediately burst into tears and laughed.

A few little heads got together and counted together.

Gu Baoying didn't care what they said, it was nothing more than how to fix her, she just stared at her feet, and when she saw the herbs, she quickly dug them up and carefully put them in the back basket.

These bear children did not know herbs, and every time they went up the mountain, they would pick up dry firewood and dig up wild vegetables they knew.

But she has followed her grandfather of Chinese medicine since she was a child, and she can memorize several books on Chinese herbal medicine, but in this dynasty that does not exist in history, she has also seen a lot of people she doesn't know, and she has dug a few trees, planning to take them back and study them slowly.

Suddenly, the back basket behind her back was pulled by someone.

"Something?" Gu Baoying turned her head and saw that it was the little radish head Wangzai who was scared and crying by her just now.

"Sister Baoying, I know that there is a place with a lot of wild vegetables and bird eggs, do you want to come with me?" Wang Zai's big black eyes are very pure, flickering, and very deceptive.

But she knows that this kid follows Jiang Chao and is also a little villain who does all kinds of evil!

She opened her mouth to refuse, but when she glanced at Gu Xinru's calculating eyes, she simply changed her words: "Okay!" You lead the way! ”

"Then you follow me!" When Wang Tsai saw her agree, he smiled happily and led the way to the other side.

Gu Baoying pulled the back basket on her back and followed.

She wants to see what these bear children have in mind!

Later, when Gu Xinru and Jiang Chao saw that she was fooled, they hurriedly followed.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the Forbidden Forest, where the trees were tall and lush, covering the sky and the sun, and because it was classified as a forbidden area, no one usually came at all, which was particularly eerie.

"Bao, Sister Baoying, it's just, this is it......" The little radish head Wangzai took the lead here, his voice trembled with fear, and he raised his hand to point to the forest, but he didn't dare to take another step inside.

Gu Baoying narrowed her eyes and stared at this dense forest.

There's a primeval forest vibe in there, which means there are dangerous beasts, but there are definitely a lot of precious herbs!

Behind him, Jiang Chao whispered to Gu Xinru: "She can't get in, the second master dug a trap at the entrance in order to prevent people from going by mistake and dying......

As he spoke, he also pointed out the location of the trap to Gu Xinru.

Gu Xinru thought of what the Yang family asked her to do, and her heart was beating like a drum at this time.

Pitfall...... There's even a trap here!

As long as Gu Baoying's feet take a step further, she will step into the trap covered with leaves and branches!

"Brother Jiang Chao, I seem to have seen a little rabbit over there just now, can you bring them to catch them for me?" She suddenly pointed in another direction outside the Forbidden Forest and said.

"Huh?" Jiang Chao was stunned and looked at her in wonder, what kind of rabbit to catch at this time?

"Okay, Brother Jiang Chao? I really want it! Gu Xinru held Jiang Chao's clothes in her small hands and was coquettish.

"Good, good! Then you are staring here, don't let her fall into the trap! ”

"Don't worry." Gu Xinru assured.

Jiang Chao nodded, this is a group of children shouting to catch rabbits in the direction she pointed. Wang Tsai was scared, and when he heard it, he quickly followed.

At the empty entrance of the Forbidden Forest, only Gu Baoying and Gu Xinru were left.

"What do you want to do?" Gu Baoying didn't know how dangerous the place she was standing at, her arms were ringed, the corners of her mouth were hooked, and she looked at her cousin with a little sneer.

"Baoying, can you tell the second aunt and let her give Lao Zhengtou's marriage to my mother......" Gu Xinru raised her head, her eyes were full of tears, and she approached Gu Baoying step by step.

"I said last night, my mother will not marry Lao Zheng Tou, if your mother wants to marry, then go and marry! What do you want me to say...... Yes! ”

Before Gu Baoying finished speaking, Gu Xinru suddenly stepped forward, with a cruel expression on her immature little face, and her hands pushed her violently!

She didn't stand firm, her steps staggered back, but she stepped on the air!

Plop "Bang!

Gu Baoying fell into the trap behind her!

The trap is so deep that you can't see anything in the black hole and you can't hear anything.

Gu Xinru's heart was beating fast, and her hands were shaking in fear, but she still squatted down in a panic and covered the empty place that Gu Baoying had just stepped on with branches and leaves.

Not long after, Jiang Chao came over with empty hands and an apologetic face: "I'm sorry, Xinru, I didn't find the rabbit after looking for a long time, I don't know where I went...... Hey, why are you the only one left? What about Gu Baoying? She's not going into the woods! ”

"No, she quarreled with me for a few words, saying that we lied to her, and left." Gu Xinru said calmly, but her eyes dodged.

"Really?" Jiang Chao didn't notice her abnormality, looked at the intact trap, and didn't suspect at all, "Then let's go quickly, my second master said, there are man-eating beasts in this forbidden forest, if we run out, we will be in danger!"

"Let's go! Come on! Gu Xinru's heart trembled, and she urged with a frightened face, her palms were full of cold sweat.

A group of bear children followed.

Picking up firewood, digging wild vegetables, no one saw Gu Baoying again, but they all thought that she was going home and didn't take this matter to heart.

……

……

Gu Baoying woke up in a burst of hunger and pain, opened her eyes, and what she saw was pitch black.

She endured the pain, sat up with her body propped up, and found that she was holding something in her left hand, and when she came to her eyes to take a closer look, it turned out to be a severed jade ......

What's going on?

She wondered for a while, rubbed her confused head, and remembered that she had been careless before, and she was pushed into a trap by Gu Xinru!

The trap was very deep, and she kept falling down, and suddenly fell heavily on somewhere, and she was so panicked that she grabbed her hands wildly, and she didn't know where she had touched it, and it was empty under her, and then, she fell and fainted......

Could it be that this is what was caught at that time?

Such a cut of jade, I'm afraid it's not worth much.

But looking at this thing, she suddenly had a strange look in her heart, the warm color of the broken jade, in this black hole place, emitted a faint white jade, this broken jade seemed to be able to speak, in the dark, quietly confided in her something, so that she was inexplicably reluctant to throw away.

It is said that jade has a spirit.

Gu Baoying couldn't help but think, isn't she actually like this piece of broken jade left in the dark underground?

A failed life experience, wandered to this strange and distant ancient time, faced with a broken and unstable life, without any hope.
