Chapter 331 Hunting in the Mountains
Pei Yu glanced at the surroundings and said apologetically, "The mountain is blocked by heavy snow, and I can't tell which direction I am going."
Mo Qing looked at him in disbelief. No, was he trying to trick people?
Pei Yu can't tell the direction, so how can he lead the army to fight? Is he feeling guilty for saying this?
"you……"
Pei Yu held his head and said, "Don't worry, let me think about it."
Mo Qing looked at him expectantly, hoping that he could figure out where the location was.
"Oh, no, it gives me a headache just thinking about it. I really can't remember it."
Mo Qing: “…”
If he still can't see that Pei Yu is playing a trick on him, then he has grown a brain in vain.
"Ah, hey, that's enough. You hurt your heart, not your head. You covered the wrong place."
Pei Yu heard this, without even looking at it, and put the hand that was rubbing his temple to his heart, "Yeah, look at my memory."
Mo Qing smiled and said, "I think you have entered the aging period early. If your memory is too bad, I have a way to help you improve your memory."
Pei Yu's mouth twitched slightly. What the hell is this aging period? Mo Xiaohua's words are too poisonous.
Shen Li walked a few steps away. She really didn't want to see them behave so childishly.
"Well, I just lied to you. Don't you know who I am?"
Mo Qing shook his head. "I definitely understand Pei Yu in the past, but he is too bad now. I don't understand him."
"I'll give you another chance. That ginseng is at least four hundred years old."
"You didn't lie to me?" After being cheated once, Mo Qing began to be more careful.
"If you don't want it, forget it."
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Pei Yu didn't want to say anything more and followed Shen Li's steps.
Seeing this, Mo Qing hurriedly followed suit, stretched out a hand and gently patted his mouth, "Look at what I said, your brain must be frozen!"
"Zi'an, it's freezing outside. Let's go pick the ginseng quickly to prevent it from freezing."
"Well, but then again, I haven't found ginseng of this age here before. Could it really be frozen?"
Pei Yu followed Shen Li and changed the direction. It was not that she was really lying to him just now. The ginseng was originally intended to be found for him.
"You'll know if it's bad or not after you go and take a look."
"That's true." He caught up with Pei Yu and patted him on the shoulder. "Zi'an, you are indeed a good brother. I didn't misjudge you."
Thinking back to what he just said, Pei Yu didn't want to argue with him anymore, "Watch the road carefully, don't cry if you fall."
Mo Qing laughed, "Hehehe". With the ginseng carrot hanging on his side, he ignored him.
It became increasingly difficult to walk later on, so Pei Yu simply used his Qigong to go much faster. This made it much faster, but it was a pain for Mo Qing, as his internal energy wasn't that strong, so he could only barely keep up.
After two quarters of an hour, Pei Yu stopped in front of a mountain.
"Reached?"
Mo Qing was so tired that he was out of breath. In the middle of winter, his face was covered in sweat.
He was gritting his teeth in his heart. If there was no ginseng here or the ginseng was rotten, he would see how he would settle the score with Pei Zian.
“It’s a little warmer here.”
Shen Li stretched out her hand, feeling the temperature in the air, and spoke to the two of them.
Pei Yu nodded, "Yes, Ah Li is right, the temperature here is indeed a little higher."
After saying that, the two guards dug away the snow at the mountain pass, and soon a cave entrance that was only wide enough for two adults to enter and exit was revealed.
Mo Qing took out a tinder, moved closer to the cave entrance, and sniffed the smell inside. "This cave is a bit dark! But there is nothing else. Let's go in."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man went into the cave. Seeing this, Pei Yu hurriedly pulled Shen Li to follow, and the guards behind followed closely behind.
The smell in the cave was a little damp, and there was a peculiar musty smell.
The visibility in the cave was dim, and the light from the tinder was too weak. Several guards made three torches, and it became a little brighter.
Originally, Shen Li and Mo Qing thought that the ginseng grew in the cave, but they didn't expect that there was something hidden inside the cave.
After walking in the cave for a quarter of an hour, I vaguely saw light ahead.
"Go, go, go, there is light ahead."
Mo Qing was a little excited. It seemed that he still liked bright places.
After exiting the cave, there was a forest outside. It felt taller and taller than the one outside. There was also snow, but not as much as outside.
"I didn't expect this cave to be like this." Mo Qing looked around and sighed before looking at Pei Yu. "By the way, Zi'an, where is the ginseng?"
"It's not far away. It's just ahead. But, I told you this in advance. I haven't come to see it, so I don't know whether it's true or not."
"I understand, I understand. Don't worry, you've brought me here. Even if nothing happened, it's not your fault."
Pei Yu nodded. Yes, there was, but he was not sure whether there were really that many years.
"Separate and explore."
"Yes, master."
Mo Qing chose a direction by himself, "Okay, you two form a group, I'll go look for it too."
It’s more fulfilling to find it yourself.
The two also chose a direction to move forward. The temperature here was relatively high. Maybe because no one had come here for many years, the pheasants and rabbits were not afraid of people and would occasionally rub against their feet.
“This place is nice.”
Compared to the cold Dingzhou City, this place is much warmer.
"Well, it's just that the way in is a little far. Ah Li, it's very likely that Dingzhou will be my fiefdom in the future. Would you dislike it here?"
"No, the people here are very warm and honest. I like their customs."
Pei Yu raised the corners of his mouth, showing that he was happy. Since he could ask this question, it meant that there was an 80% chance that Dingzhou would be his fiefdom. Ah Li liked it and didn't mind it being a cold and bitter place, so he was naturally happy.
Little did she know that in Shen Li's heart, Dingzhou was not a bitter and cold place at all. Compared to the doomsday of lack of food and clothing, and polluted land and air, Dingzhou was simply a paradise.
The land and air here are not polluted, and there are sufficient food and water, which can completely offset the disadvantage of the cold weather.
"Hahaha!"
“Hahahahahahahaha~”
As the two were walking, a demonic laughter suddenly appeared in the woods. After hearing who laughed it, they were all shocked.
Shen Li had a complicated expression, "Mo Qing..."
Pei Yu pulled her towards the direction where the laughter came from, "His brain is frozen."
"I found ginseng, Pei Zian, come and take a look."
When the two approached, they saw Mo Qing squatting on the ground. There was a green plant there, which was ginseng, and it was quite old. He had already swept a lot of snow around it.
"Hey, look at this ginseng. It's so beautiful. I found it!"
When he saw them coming, he raised his head and looked at them, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
