Chapter 224 Finding Wealth in Danger
As we continued walking forward, the fog in the rainforest became thicker and thicker, and our vision became blurred.
Jian Yue followed Jiang Zeyuan closely, not daring to be careless at all.
"This place is really mysterious."
"Shh, don't talk." Jiang Zeyuan motioned for him to be quiet.
Just then, a giant spider dropped from the sky and dangled from the branches overhead.
The spider was huge, and its long hairy legs dangling in the air were creepy.
Jian Yue's eyes widened instantly and she screamed, "Ah!"
The whole person jumped back suddenly as if he was electrocuted and almost fell to the ground.
Can there be such a big spider?
It’s over. I feel like this snake and insect repellent bag isn’t very useful.
Jiang Zeyuan reacted quickly and rushed forward.
He swung the branch in his hand swiftly and hit the spider accurately.
The spider was frightened and quickly climbed upwards and disappeared among the branches.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'm here."
Jiang Zeyuan quickly took Jian Yue's hand, holding their fingers tightly.
Jian Yue swallowed and nodded slightly.
The two continued to move forward, and the light became increasingly dimmer the further they went inside.
Oh my goodness! Is that a porcini?
Jian Yue excitedly pointed at the lush grass not far away, her voice trembling slightly with excitement.
In the grass, I saw plump and tender boletus mushrooms with round and full caps and delicate and neat gills.
He rushed forward in two steps at a time.
Squat down and carefully pick the porcini.
Then without thinking, he simply put it into the space.
Jiang Zeyuan was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
He immediately complained loudly: "Wife, how dare you be so bold in front of me? Just now you even knew to cover yourself with the backpack!"
Jian Yue glanced at him sideways, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, outlining a sly smile.
Just ignore him.
He ignored everything that was said and didn't take a single word to heart.
Jiang Zeyuan was now extremely anxious and quickly came up to Jian Yue.
"Wife, please give me an explanation. You are so blatant. I am almost scared to death by you!"
Jian Yue then slowly raised her head, "What are you afraid of? Apart from you and me, who else is there here?"
Jiang Zeyuan was so amused by her words, "Although that's true, we should also be low-key when doing things, right?"
Jian Yue glanced at him domineeringly and said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense here and help me collect all the porcini mushrooms in this area."
Jiang Zeyuan pursed his lips helplessly and sighed.
But in my heart, I also feel that Jian Yue is so willful, cute and interesting.
After harvesting the porcini, the two were preparing to leave.
Suddenly, a beautiful sika deer poked its head out from the woods nearby.
Jian Yue shouted in surprise: "Hubby, catch it!"
His eyes were fixed on the sika deer, as if he had already taken it as his prey.
~O(n_n)O~
Venison is good stuff!
Jiang Zeyuan curled the corners of his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and showed a sly smile.
"Wife, just watch!"
Jian Yue couldn't wait to hand the electric baton in her hand to Jiang Zeyuan.
Jiang Zeyuan took the electric baton, flexed his wrist, and swaggered towards the sika deer with a determined look.
The sika deer seemed to sense the danger and turned around to escape.
Jiang Zeyuan said "Hey", quickened his pace, and rushed forward like a gust of wind.
His eyes were fixed on the sika deer, and he waited for the right moment with the electric baton in his hand.
He swung his sword violently, still shouting, "You little brat, you still want to run!"
The electric current instantly hit the sika deer, and its body trembled a few times before collapsing to the ground.
Jiang Zeyuan blew the electric baton proudly and raised his chin towards Jian Yue, "Well, your husband is awesome, isn't he?"
Jian Yue ran over excitedly, circled the deer a few times, and said coquettishly, "Only you can do it!"
Jiang Zeyuan laughed and put the electric baton on his shoulder, "Of course I have to. Don't you see who I am?"
"Alright, alright, stop being so conceited, let's just keep moving forward!"
After saying that, Jian Yue took the sika deer directly.
Jiang Zeyuan smiled and replied, "Yes, my wife!"
The deeper they went into the rainforest, the more eerie the atmosphere became.
A cold wind blew from somewhere.
They couldn't help but shivered several times in succession.
Jian Yue unconsciously leaned closer to Jiang Zeyuan, her voice trembling, "Honey, this place feels eerie and scary."
Jiang Zeyuan nodded subconsciously, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
At this moment, Jian Yue's attention was attracted by a corner.
I rubbed my eyes, unable to believe what I saw.
At the roots of a gigantic tree, several plants with unique shapes are faintly visible.
Jian Yue tugged at the corner of Jiang Zeyuan's clothes, her voice trembling with excitement, "Honey, do you think that's ginseng?"
Jiang Zeyuan looked in the direction of Jian Yue's finger, and his pupils moved.
Among the rotten leaves at the root of the big tree, there were several ginseng plants with emerald green leaves spreading out.
The stem is upright, with red ginseng seeds on top.
After counting carefully, there were as many as seven or eight.
Jian Yue was so surprised that she couldn't help herself. She murmured to herself, "As expected, wealth and honor are sought in danger."
Jiang Zeyuan also became excited, but quickly regained his composure, "Wife, we have to dig carefully and don't damage it."
Jian Yue directly took out two small shovels and handed one to Jiang Zeyuan.
Then, gently remove the rotten leaves and soil around the ginseng.
Jian Yue dug carefully, not daring to breathe.
Jiang Zeyuan also dug down along the rhizome of the ginseng carefully.
He was extremely careful with every move, for fear of breaking a single whisker.
Jian Yue couldn't help but remind him, "Hubby, slow down, slow down."
After digging for a while, the first ginseng was finally unearthed intact.
Jiang Zeyuan handed it to Jian Yue as if it were a treasure.
Jian Yue held it in both hands, her eyes full of joy.
Then they did the same thing again.
One, two, three...
Every time they dug up a ginseng, their joy increased.
I encountered some trouble when digging the last two ginsengs.
The rhizomes of the two ginseng plants seem to be intertwined with each other.
Jiang Zeyuan had beads of sweat on his forehead: "Wife, this is a bit difficult."
Jian Yue bit her lip and said, "Hubby, don't worry. Let's be careful. We will definitely be able to dig it out."
This is the giant among ginseng!
Never give up!
Jiang Zeyuan took a deep breath and separated the roots with a shovel more carefully.
After some effort, they finally managed to dig out the two ginsengs intact.
At this time, both of them were exhausted and out of breath.
But looking at the pile of ginseng in front of me, I felt incomparably gratified.
"Honey, this time we have a huge harvest!" Jian Yue smiled from ear to ear.
Every ginseng here is very big, at least several hundred years old.
Jiang Zeyuan wiped the sweat off his face and nodded, "Yeah, we are really lucky."
