Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 352 The Frightened Herb Collector

Seeing this, Si He immediately suppressed the evil energy in his body, restrained his breath, then jumped and left quickly.

However, she did not go too far. She stopped in front of the hillside and looked at "Zhao Laoxie" at the foot of the mountain from afar.

Fortunately, the sunlight does not reach here at this time, and the lighting in most places here is not very good and very dim.

Suddenly, Si He's scent disappeared. Zhao Laoxie stood there in a daze. After a while, he instinctively walked towards the dark valley in front of him, because the scent in the valley made him feel safe.

Si He, who was on the hillside, was very satisfied to see him walking towards the valley on his own initiative. After a long while, she restrained her breath, slowly walked down the mountain, and quietly followed Zhao Laoxie.

After a while, Zhao Laoxie walked into a cave filled with a strong yin energy, and then lay down straight like before, without moving.

Si He stood outside the cave, watched quietly for a while, and then left quietly.

It's good to know how to find a safe place for yourself.

After walking out of the valley in the extremely dark place, the light became a little brighter, but it was already afternoon and the sun still could not shine here because of the high mountains.

She looked at the sky and did not go into the forest again. Instead, she walked towards the cave where she used to live.

It has been more than 20 years since she last came here, but she felt like she had been here not long ago.

This was mainly because she had slept for too long before, and when she woke up, many years had passed.

Thinking of this, she sighed again.

She walked to the front of the cave. Nothing had changed here. It was still the same as before, except that there were a lot more weeds at the entrance.

She stood quietly at the entrance of the cave, hugging the small bag on her back tightly. After a while, she went to pick up some dead branches nearby and caught a rabbit.

She knew how to make a fire and peel the skin, but she could never roast it the way she wanted and the way it tasted.

She sat in front of the cave entrance, looking at the horribly roasted rabbit, and couldn't help pursing her lips. After a long time, she brought the roasted rabbit meat to her lips and ate it in small bites.

But as soon as she took a bite, tears inexplicably fell.

But she still chewed the meat in her mouth, and after swallowing it, she whispered to herself: "It tastes terrible."

She sniffed, but continued to eat the rabbit meat in her hand, and her tears still fell uncontrollably, drop by drop, dripping onto the barbecue.

The meat in my hand became increasingly difficult to swallow.

At this time, some voices were heard in the distance. Some people were walking towards this side, and there were quite a few of them.

Si He took a deep breath, wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, turned her head and looked outside, and saw a group of people picking herbs walking towards her.

Those people also saw her from afar, mainly because there was a fire burning in front of the cave entrance, which was very eye-catching.

Seeing that she was the only girl here, they let down their guard, looked around, and then walked towards this side.

Si He glanced at them, then looked away, put the barbecue in her hand aside, stopped eating, then took out the small bag, lowered her head and ate the fruit in silence.

"I wonder why the girl is alone in this forest?"

The person who came forward to ask questions was a woman who looked to be in her early twenties. Perhaps because Si He was a girl, they asked a woman to ask questions, and her attitude was gentle and she didn't seem to have any ill intentions.

Si He looked up at the woman. Although these people seemed to have no ill intentions, she really didn't want to pay attention to them now, so she said nothing and looked away with an indifferent expression.

When she looked up and saw her face clearly, they were all stunned. They had not expected that this girl was so beautiful.

However, her attitude was very cold, and seeing her like this, they guessed that she was wary of strangers, which was not surprising.

Moreover, her face was pale, her eyes were red, and there were traces of unwiped tears. They guessed that she must have encountered something and that was why she was here alone.

Seeing her like this, the woman who asked the question exchanged glances with her companions, then quietly retreated and went to rest at a place not far away with her companions. It was getting late, and they planned to spend the night here.

So they picked up some branches nearby to make a fire and get some food.

More than ten of them sat together, eating and talking about today's harvest of herbs and tomorrow's arrangements. During this time, they occasionally looked at Si He and whispered.

After all, a girl, alone in this deep forest, might have encountered something, but she is still so calm, which always makes people feel a little strange.

They knew very well how dangerous it was in the deep mountains. Even though they were well prepared, many people were injured. However, she did not look injured at all. She was also relatively neat and did not look afraid at all. The closer you looked, the more surprising it was.

After eating some wild fruits, Si He sat down against the mountain wall and closed his eyes to take a nap.

Soon, it got dark. In the valley, except for their group, there was silence all around. Moreover, there was only light on their side. The fire in front of Si He had long been extinguished, and the surroundings were pitch black.

The forest was unusually quiet tonight. There were no roars of wild beasts or calls of night birds. At most, there were only the chirping of insects.

In the past, the roars of beasts made them very nervous, but now that they were gone, they felt a little uneasy.

After nightfall, their voices became quieter, and they became extra alert to the movements around them, taking turns to keep watch.

They turned to look at Si He not far away. Although they could not see clearly and could only vaguely see a figure, they knew that she should still be asleep. Should they say that she was brave or courageous?

At this time, some sounds were faintly heard from the distant valley, which made them immediately fall silent and listen attentively.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

The sound was like someone walking, very slow and regular, yet inexplicably made people feel a little weird.

They looked in the direction of the sound. The moonlight was not very bright at this time, so the light was very dim. They could only vaguely see a figure slowly walking out of the valley.

It seems to be walking towards them!

Shouldn't a normal person hold a torch in such a dark environment?

They watched the figure approaching with caution, wondering if this was the girl's companion.

They turned to look at Si He, only to see her still sitting there calmly, perhaps she was still asleep or hadn't heard anything?

At this moment, the figure's steps seemed to be faster and the distance was much closer.

Seeing this, they all stood up. Although there was only one figure, they still picked up their swords and weapons and looked at the person vigilantly.

At this moment, the figure suddenly made a sound.

"Ho-ho-ho"

This was not a sound that a normal person could make, and they were immediately horrified.

At this moment, some of the dark clouds that blocked the moonlight dispersed a little, and they saw the face of the figure clearly. They all gasped and looked terrified.
