Chapter 14: Ideas

Walking all the way, about twenty minutes or so, the gray wolf suddenly stopped, it lowered its head, its steps began to hesitate, and it whined at Li Xiao.

Li Xiao immediately signaled: "You said that the thing is ahead?"

The gray wolf whimpered and nodded his head.

Perhaps because he was able to communicate with animals, Li Xiao could clearly sense whether animals were hostile to him. This gray wolf has no hostility to Li Xiao except for being close.

It is precisely because of this that Li Xiao unconditionally trusts the gray wolf.

Sometimes, an animal is more innocent than a deep-minded human, and once it approves of you, it will never betray you.

Li Xiao pulled out the sharp mountain knife behind him and explored forward.

After walking for about ten meters and cutting off several thumb-thick vines in front of him, a smile of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

Could this be what the gray wolf told him to treasure?

Li Xiao and his grandfather have studied traditional Chinese medicine and are naturally very familiar with herbal medicine.

What appeared in front of Li Xiao was the king of herbs - ginseng.

I saw that most of the ginseng was buried in the soil, and only the upper part was exposed.

"This is really a good baby, this time it's really rich!" Li Xiao muttered.

From its appearance, he could tell that this ginseng was at least thirty years old, and it was definitely a good product for replenishing qi and strengthening the body.

If it weren't for the fear of provoking even more powerful beasts, Li Xiao would definitely roar a few times, maybe this would be able to release his excitement.

Although I don't know the true value of this ginseng, it is certainly worth a lot of money.

Li Xiao took out a small medicine shovel that looked exquisite, which was one of the equipment he must bring when entering the mountain. In the mountains, there are a variety of wild Chinese herbs, many of which are precious. If he encounters it, Li Xiao will naturally pick it with his hands, which is why he carries a medicine shovel with him.

Holding the medicine shovel in his hand, perhaps because he was too excited, Li Xiao felt that his hands trembled a little.

Taking a deep breath, he carefully dug up on the edge of the ginseng, his movements were very careful and gentle, for fear that he would accidentally dig up even a very inconspicuous ginseng tentacle, in Li Xiao's opinion, it was a great waste.

With the rapid movement of Li Xiao's hands, most of the ginseng had already exposed the soil.

Just as he was about to continue, suddenly, behind him, a terrible wolf howl came, and Li Xiao was startled. Almost at the same time, a voice sounded in his head: "Be careful. ”

At the same time, Li Xiao saw a red line in the afterglow of his eyes, shooting towards him with lightning speed. The speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye he was already close to him.

Li Xiao didn't dare to be careless, in this forest, carelessness means death.

The muscles in his body immediately tensed, and he surged forward, his body was like electricity, and he jumped several meters away before turning around.

Originally, where he was standing, there was a small red snake.

This snake is not big, it is the thickness of a finger, but it is red, surrounded by purple patterns, a black core is swallowed back and forth, making a slight sound, and the cold snake eyes are staring at Li Xiao, revealing ruthlessness and coldness.

Seeing this little snake, Li Xiao didn't dare to be careless.

He didn't know the specific scientific name of this little snake, but from its bright color, Li Xiao could already tell that this little snake was highly venomous.

Rub!

The little snake's body bowed again, and with a flick of its tail, it shot in the direction of Li Xiao again, and if it was an arrow from the string, the speed would be extremely fast.

This time, Li Xiao was prepared, so he responded calmly. On the side of his body, he dodged the attack of the little snake, and then raised the knife in his hand, and slashed down with the mountain knife in his hand, directly cutting the little snake in two.

The vitality of the little snake is very strong, even if it becomes two sections, its body is still twisted on the ground, and it takes a long time before it dies completely.

Li Xiao wiped the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead, and finally let out a long breath. If it weren't for the gray wolf's reminder, I am afraid that I would be in danger.

At this time, the gray wolf came to Li Xiao's side, and he didn't care about anything, he directly bit the corpse of the little snake, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Originally, Li Xiao was still worried about whether the gray wolf would be poisoned if he ate the little snake, but seeing the gray wolf jumping around, he didn't pay attention to it anymore.

Getting a thirty-year-old wild ginseng, Li Xiao was in a good mood, he knocked on the gray wolf's head and said, "You kid has made a great contribution." ”

Many animals are psychic, especially wild beasts, which are even more sensitive in this regard.

The gray wolf also felt Li Xiao's mood, and it immediately stretched out its tongue and licked Li Xiao's palm.

The gray wolf's tongue is rough, and licking is uncomfortable on the palm of the hand.

Li Xiao hugged the gray wolf's head and said with some doting: "Since you follow me, I will call you Ah Da in the future." ”

With the help of the gray wolf, Li Xiao easily returned to the place where the fungus was found, and his two sacks stood leaning on a dead tree.

Li Xiao gained a lot from this trip to the mountains and forests, and he was ready to leave.

Before leaving the mountain forest, Li Xiao instructed Ah Da a few more words, and then left the forest quickly.

Since it is surrounded by tall trees, it is easy to get lost when walking here. It's a terrible thing to get lost in the mountains.

On the way back to the village, Li Xiao left a lot of marks for next time.

At this time, it was close to noon, and many peasants were sitting by the ridges of the fields to eat on the reclaimed fields in Ning Village.

One of the villagers' eyes was sharp-eyed, and he saw a figure appear on the path leading to the mountain in the village.

"Isn't that person Li Xiao?"

"I heard that Li Xiao just got a goat not long ago, good guy, such a big one, it is estimated that he has made a lot of money. ”

"I don't know what Li Xiao gained this time?"

Seeing that Li Xiao's figure was getting closer and clearer, everyone immediately started to talk.

Li Daozheng listened to them praise his son, and he was extremely proud.

Along the way, countless people greeted Li Xiao.

Seeing what Li Xiao was carrying, many villagers also came to his side out of curiosity and surrounded him.

When he came to his parents, he put the two hemp he was carrying on the ground and made a dull thud.

"Good fellow, this weight is heavy enough, Li Xiao, what good things have you got?" asked a villager.

Originally, this was the financial route that Li Xiao was preparing for the villagers, so Li Xiao didn't hide it, and directly opened the mouth of the sack.

Seeing the trembling fungus in the sack, the expressions on everyone's faces were incomparably wonderful, with shock, envy, jealousy, and different expressions.

"So many fungus, this must be hundreds of catties, right?"

"How much does this sell for?"

"Uncle Daozheng, Brother Xiao is so capable, you are about to enjoy Qingfu. ”

Seeing the two sacks of fungus, Li Daozheng's face changed, he ignored the compliments of the surrounding villagers, but directly grabbed Li Xiao's arm and said, "Let's go, go home and say." ”
