In view of the fact that Xia Yinghan washed her clothes yesterday not only washed herself in the water, but also washed several clothes at home, she was ordered to change the guard today.

After washing the dishes with Xia Su, she took a bamboo basket and a shovel to the foot of the mountain north of the village.

Raising his sleeves and wiping the sweat on his head, Xia Yinghan looked up at the mountain, only to see that the forest was lush and full of trees, and all kinds of birds and insects could be heard in it. Usually the villagers will only dig some wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain and near the periphery of the mountain forest, and go deeper, except for the hunters in the village, no one dares to go in, because there are fierce beasts in the mountains, and those who have no power to tie the chickens will seek death if they go in.

Now that he had the opportunity to come here, Xia Yinghan was ready to go to the mountains to have a look. She minored in botany in college, and she still knows basic plant identification. She wanted to find out if there were any valuable herbs to dig up.

Yesterday, she thought that no matter whether she would leave the Xia family in the future or not, she had to make money first, and it was a basic way to survive in any time and space where she was rich.

Walking up a stream for about ten minutes, she really found a large bush of snakeberries by the stream, snakeberries are not uncommon as a conventional medicinal material for clearing heat and detoxifying, but I can't bear the amount now, looking at the large area of snakeberries in front of her, Xia Yinghan smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth. After picking up a full cloth bag, Xia Yinghan didn't plan to wander around the mountains anymore.

By the way, digging up the wild vegetables that he was going to go back to, Xia Yinghan walked down the mountain, but he didn't expect that he had just taken two steps back, and found something familiar under the root of a tree. She hurried over, digging out the dirt bit by bit with trembling hands. When he dug it out and held it in his hand, Xia Yinghan gasped.

Grass mud horse, is she dazzled? How can there be wild ginseng here!? It's impossible to grow wild ginseng in this environment! It's not scientific at all!

When Xia Yinghan took it in her hand and looked at it a few times to determine that this was wild ginseng, she also calmed down, okay, if it's not scientific, it's not scientific, anyway, this is the world in the book, everything depends on the author's decision, and she doesn't have to make a fuss about this kind of unnatural phenomenon.

Emma, it's here!

Xia Yinghan, who was stealing joy in Meizizi, didn't notice the sound of "squeezing" in the grass not far away, and when he came back to his senses, he found that a wild boar had come out of the grass.

"Ho!" Xia Yinghan gasped, looking at the wild boar's two small eyes staring at her, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

This is close to the edge of the forest, and it stands to reason that the beasts in the mountains will not run so outside, and looking at the wild boar the size of a calf in front of him, it is obviously a cub that is not yet an adult, and it must have been lost to get here.

But even if it was a cub, Xia Yinghan was not sure that she could kill it, if she could, don't provoke it, she slowly took two steps back, she wanted to take another path down the mountain. But the wild boar didn't know if it was afraid of being in a strange environment, as soon as Xia Yinghan moved, she suddenly became impatient, and rushed towards her with a kick of her hooves.

Xia Yinghan had been staring at the wild boar's every move before, and although he was startled when he saw it rushing over, he was already prepared, and he leaned to the side to avoid its attack.

It's just that Xia Yinghan underestimated the delicate degree of his body, and when he turned around, he twisted his feet too hard, and his body fell heavily to the ground, which happened to be a slope, and suddenly Xia Yinghan's whole person grunted and rolled down.

Damn, I feel like I'm going to take a break!

Fortunately, this was only a small steep slope, and Xia Yinghan rolled a few laps before hitting the trunk of a tree and stopped. When I opened my eyes, I saw that it was pitch black, huh? Why is it dark?

When she was wondering, she saw that the "dark sky" left her eyes, and Xia Yinghan realized that the so-called "black sky" was actually the sole of someone's foot.

"...... "Did you almost get stepped on in the face?"

Xia Yinghan looked up, because he couldn't see the appearance of the person in front of him clearly because of the light behind him, but he saw that the figure was a man. So I stopped just now when I touched this man's leg.

She didn't know whether she should thank the person in front of her for blocking the way or hold a grudge against the person who was almost trampled on her face.

Just when Xia Yinghan was thinking wildly, the wild boar on the slope found the figures of the two people, and rushed over again, and at this time, I saw the man pick up the bow and arrow on his back and shoot at the wild boar, and the sharp arrow made a breaking sound and stabbed the wild boar's neck, and even pierced its neck, which shows the strength of the archer.

The wild boar fell to the ground with a bang, and Xia Yinghan patted his chest and got up from the ground and looked at the man.

The man is tall, he looks only in his twenties, dressed as a hunter, and surprisingly he has an elegant and handsome face, if he changes his clothes, he is afraid that others will think that this is a scholar, but a deep scar on his left forehead makes his whole person more solemn, and it makes people feel a trace of fear for no reason.

Xia Yinghan looked at the man in front of him, and remembered a passage in the original book for no reason: "An assassin looked at the surrounding wall of people, his eyes turned, and he saw Xia Yingwei who was alone in the left rear, and he wanted to take him hostage before he flew up, but before he could touch the corner of the girl's clothes, a sharp arrow broke through the air and shot straight into his wrist. He held his wrist and gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground, raised his eyes to look, only to see a man appear in front of Xia Yingwei at some point, with an elegant scholar-like face, the scar on his left forehead was slightly bulging because of anger, and the whole person was like an unsheathed sword firmly guarding the girl in front of him, looking at his eyes fiercely and ruthlessly, making him feel a burst of ...... in his heart."

Sha Xiuyuan! An important male supporting actor in the original book!

Yes, Sha Xiuyuan lives at the foot of the mountain in the village, and usually hunts for a living, so it is not surprising that she will meet him here.

In fact, there has been a lot of controversy in the original book about whether Sha Xiuyuan is the heroine's peach blossom, he has been guarding the heroine since Pingsi Village, but he has never shown that he likes the heroine, so readers in the book review area have also had a heated discussion about this.

Xia Yinghan, who has read the book, knows that Sha Xiuyuan is not an ordinary hunter, a few years ago Sha Xiuyuan joined the army and enlisted in the army, performed well on the battlefield, and performed particularly prominently in an important fortress battle. After being discharged from the army, he came directly to Pingsi Village to settle down.

"Girl...... Girl...... Are you okay? A slightly hoarse voice interrupted Xia Yinghan's thoughts. Sha Xiuyuan frowned, how could the girl in front of him look stunned, seeing that she seemed to come back to her senses, he didn't pay attention to her anymore, just walked to the carcass of the wild boar, pulled out the arrow on its body, and then prepared to carry it down the mountain. Today I was lucky, and I hunted a wild boar not long after entering the forest.

Xia Yinghan picked up the things that had fallen on the ground in a panic before, and saw that Sha Xiuyuan had already raised his legs and left, so he hurriedly followed his footsteps.

"What do you call this big brother?"

"Sha Xiuyuan."

Sure enough, it was him.

"Brother Sha, thank you so much just now, if it weren't for you, I might have died here today."

"You didn't come in looking for death?"

"......" looking for death? What does it mean? Is this scolding or swearing?

"People within a radius of hundreds of miles know that there are many fierce beasts on this mountain, and no one will enter the mountain if nothing happens."

"I ...... I'm just going up the hill to see what's to eat, not to die. "I finally lived again, how could I kill myself.

Sha Xiuyuan looked at Xia Yinghan with an expression of "don't lie to me", and said slowly: "Three months ago, I met a scholar on the mountain, and he was grilling fish by the waterhole at that time. I thought he was looking for food in the mountains, but he jumped into the water after eating. ”

“…… Did he go down and take a shower? ”

"He committed suicide by jumping into the water."

"......" ran to the mountain and jumped into the water to commit suicide, is this teasing me?

"I rescued him, and he said he didn't want to be a starving ghost, so he caught a fish to eat before committing suicide."

“…… I'm really here to find something to eat, I haven't lived enough to die. ”

Sha Xiuyuan seemed to be a little suspicious, and looked at Xia Yinghan a few times, "Since you don't want to die, then go into the mountain less, although there are many things to eat on the mountain, but if you accidentally eat the wrong one, you will die." As he spoke, he took out a small cloth bag from his arms and threw it to Xia Yinghan.

Xia Yinghan opened it and saw that it was some air-dried beef.

Sha Xiuyuan didn't say anything more, silently took Xia Yinghan to the foot of the mountain, watching him carry the wild boar and leave without saying a word, Xia Yinghan hurriedly called out to him, and raised the small cloth bag, "Brother Sha, thank you." ”

Sha Xiuyuan glanced at her deeply and said seriously: "I hope I don't look for death next time I see you." ”

"......" goodbye! Good to go! No gifts!

When reading the book, Xia Yinghan felt that the character of Sha Xiuyuan was a good green leaf who was loyal to his duties, but now after contacting him, he realized that he was still an upright boy who admitted death. Why did he always think that he was looking for death, did he have a face that he didn't want to live?
