Chapter 279: Digging up the ancestors
Chapter 279: Digging up the ancestors
Looking at Mr. Wu's frustrated figure, Principal Chu also wanted to save his face. He had lost all his face, but now feeling his relaxed body, he thought, forget it, as long as he was in good health, what did his face matter?
Others wanted to embarrass themselves but they didn't have the chance to do so. After comforting themselves, they went to the fields with great interest to see the growth of the crops. When they saw these crops, they remembered that it was all thanks to the little apprentice. The little apprentice had done so much, so what would be a big deal if they asked for a leave?
At this point, the only remaining thought in his heart that the little disciple was a bit troublesome disappeared completely. He also thought that the little disciple must be very tired after going up the mountain, so he had to ask Chef Fang to prepare more delicious food for the little disciple.
Looking at the vast forest, Shu Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief. She could finally take a break. In the past few days, she had secretly put a lot of cucumbers and tomatoes into the space, but it couldn't be all these.
She really wanted to save more of the food cooked by Chef Fang, but it was difficult to explain. She could only say that she wanted to improve the meals for her third brother and the others, and she would withhold one or two dishes each time, hoping that it would add up.
Shenbao had already spotted many edible fruit trees and rare medicinal herbs in the forest. She would first search the mountain and then find a way to go down the mountain.
After entering the forest, Shu Xiaoxiao called Dabai directly. Since the secret guards knew her abilities, Shu Xiaoxiao did not plan to hide it this time. She easily shook off the secret guards who followed them and went to pick various wild fruits. It didn't matter if some of them were not ripe. She asked Shenbao to remember the place and come over to pick them when they were ripe.
The secret guards who were left behind also understood what Master Ye meant. They used to wonder why it was so hard to follow Master Ye in the woods and he might disappear at any time. Now that they knew Master Ye's abilities, they felt that they were so stupid before and didn't even know that Master Ye was playing around with them. Seeing that Master Ye didn't want them to follow him, they simply waited at the foot of the mountain. They really couldn't beat Master Ye in the woods, so they decided not to bother. Dabai was there, and they would have time to rush over if there was any danger.
Shu Xiaoxiao looked around the space and found that most of the things inside were fruits. They were fine as snacks, but if they were used as staple food, she would have to go hungry every meal. She remembered that there seemed to be a spring on the mountain, so water was of paramount importance.
Shu Xiaoxiao rode on Dabai and found the source of the stream. It was pure mountain spring water, which tasted much sweeter than modern bottled mineral water. Shu Xiaoxiao filled a lot of it into the space. Not to mention drinking it, this water could be used for daily bathing for a long time.
There are also medicinal herbs. The space cannot be used to plant them, nor can it store living things, but at least it is convenient for storage. Some medicinal herbs are deep in the forest and the place is very steep. Shu Xiaoxiao didn't want to make any trouble, so this time, Shu Xiaoxiao rode Dabai directly and collected all the medicinal herbs. When she goes up the mountain to play in the future, she can bring these herbs back with her.
As for prey, Dabai also helped to hunt a lot of animals. Dabai didn't bite any of these prey, but beat them to death or hit them to death. They looked like they were asleep, but Shu Xiaoxiao was a little worried. She couldn't cook, and she couldn't hair the legs or skin them. How to deal with these? She still preferred to eat ready-made food.
I can only put it in the space for now and see if there is a chance that Fang Yuchu can turn it into a delicacy?
She had collected almost all the supplies on the mountain. This time, she had managed to get rid of all the people who followed her. They would not rush to look for her immediately. Shu Xiaoxiao quickly changed into the clothes she had prepared long ago and rode Dabai down the mountain. Now was the time to store supplies.
Dabai was fast, so Shu Xiaoxiao did not go to the town below the academy, but went to the town on the other side of the mountain. The plants all said that this town was no smaller than Yong'an Town.
For fear of causing panic, Shu Xiaoxiao asked Dabai to wait nearby at the foot of the mountain, closest to the town. She put on a veil and entered the town with Shenbao.
As they got closer, they saw that the place was bustling with people. There were all kinds of stalls next to each other. It was indeed lively. Shu Xiaoxiao was not in the mood to stroll around, so she directly bought a horse-drawn carriage and drove it from one end of the street to the other. She bought everything she thought she might need.
Although the clothes, quilts, accessories and other small items were not as good as those in the mansion, the mansion had a limited supply and could not take anything at will. Anyway, she had the money, so Shu Xiaoxiao basically bought all the best quality finished products in the store. The store also gave her two batches of good fabrics. Shu Xiaoxiao thought about it and bought a large batch of fabrics, just in case. Who knows, she might need them?
The boss was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. This day's income was enough for him to earn for half a year when his business was at its best!
She went to the largest restaurant in town and ordered ten portions of all the signature dishes. If the chef couldn't make them, she would have ordered more. She also ordered a few portions of steamed buns, fried dough sticks, wontons, and clear soup noodles sold on the street. She bought a lot and when she estimated that the car was almost full, she drove to the foot of the mountain for a drive to make sure no one saw her before coming back to buy more.
Because he bought too much and was trying to hide his whereabouts, he was targeted by a few thugs. Thanks to Shenbao's reminder, they lured them into a secluded alley and solved the problem with a handful of medicine.
Originally, she had thought of taking all the money out of them and then beating them up, but seeing their dirty hands and faces, as well as the unpleasant smell emanating from them, Shu Xiaoxiao really couldn't bring herself to do it. Although these people deserved a beating, she couldn't let them dirty her hands.
In the end, I could only sprinkle some itching powder on them and then quickly left.
When most of the things had been collected, Shu Xiaoxiao sold the carriage at a low price and then returned to the foot of the mountain. She found Dabai changing his clothes in the woods again and carrying the backpack he had prepared earlier, as well as a few small prey, pretending to be very tired. But it wasn't really an act, for he had been busy for so long that he was already very tired. He went back listlessly.
When Zhenzhu saw the young master coming back, she quickly took the things and prepared hot water. They had been in the mountains for a whole day, and seeing how clean the young master was, he would definitely wash up.
The hot water has been prepared, just pour it into the bucket.
Dean Chu came over to look at the little disciple's backpack as if nothing had happened.
Those preys next to the backpack, well, are very common. After all, he has been in the martial arts class for such a long time. If he can't catch them, Master Wu will definitely cry. Well, maybe the little disciple is crying because of Master Wu's punishment.
As for the medicinal herbs in the backpack, Chief Chu stretched his neck and looked inside curiously.
"tear.........."
The surprised voice was out of control for a moment. When Chu Shanzhang realized what was happening, he was no longer in the mood to control his expression. He asked Shu Xiaoxiao, who was lying on the side, in surprise: "Did you pick this?"
Born into a prominent family, he also knew something about medicinal herbs. Although he didn't know all the herbs in the little apprentice's backpack, the ones he knew didn't seem to be familiar to him.
This is the difference between a son and his father, the size difference is quite big. He remembered that Doctor Wen also had one of the medicinal herbs, and he treasured it like a treasure. People were reluctant to give it up even after taking a look at it. But it was nothing compared to the one his little disciple had. Did he dig up the other person's ancestors?
Shu Xiaoxiao sat on the chair with a calm expression: "Who else could have picked it except me? Do you know how powerful my disciple is?"
Principal Chu: “.............” No wonder the pills the young disciple took out were so effective. Even if these herbs were boiled or chewed dry, the effects would not be bad, not to mention that so many of them were made into pills by the young disciple.
"Thank you for your hard work. Wash up and have a good rest." This leave is really worth it. Only the little disciple can get these medicinal materials. Others will definitely not be able to find them. With the little disciple here, I don’t have to worry about getting sick in the future. After all, there is no medicine that the little disciple can’t collect. This disciple’s collection was not in vain, hehe!
