Chapter 76

Du Xuan didn't know about these things that happened in the Sun family, and she wasn't interested in them either.

In the next few days, people in the village took turns going to the Liu family to help the two children with their parents' funeral arrangements.

Du Xuan didn't do much to help. She had no interest in watching other people's misfortunes, and she had more things to do at home.

Because Liu Erlang was bitten to death by a snake when he went up the mountain, within a short period of time, no one dared to go up the mountain.

"This is the time when snakes come out to look for food in order to survive the winter. It's better not to go up the mountain right now. Your life is at stake!"

The village chief also said it specifically.

All the villagers were not afraid of death, and they all believed in this statement, so they even went out together to cut firewood.

There is only one lone ranger who goes his own way and does what he should do as usual, seemingly unaffected by this incident.

Chen Jinniang couldn't stand it anymore and came to persuade Du Xuan, "Ms. Xuan, you can also persuade the men in your family. Something happened to Liu Erlang. He hasn't learned a lesson yet. Don't go up the mountain now. What's wrong?"

It’s dangerous!”

Regarding Chen Jinniang's worries, Du Xuan felt fine.

The snake that bit Liu Erlang to death last time was caught by Qi Yan.

Moreover, Qi Yan also did the treatment for Liu Erlang's snake bite wound at that time, and he did it very well.

Du Xuan also roughly inferred the situation at that time from the mouths of other people present at the time. After Liu Erlang was bitten, there was a period of time because the snake was angry and fierce, and refused to leave after biting people.

So even if the others wanted to help Liu Erlang, they didn't dare to go up.

So it actually took a lot of time. Later Qi Yan caught the snake and then treated Liu Erlang's wound.

Otherwise, Liu Erlang's chance of survival might be slightly greater.

Du Xuan felt relieved that Qi Yan had such ability, and she also planned to get some materials in the next two days to make some medicine kits to repel snakes, insects, and beasts.

"He knows it himself." Du Xuan smiled at Chen Jinniang.

"Oh, what can he do?" Chen Jinniang was probably really worried about Du Xuan, so she lowered her voice and said, "I speak frankly, don't blame me. Xuan Niang, with his brain... what can he do?"

Du Xuan couldn't help but burst into laughter. The words were not pleasant to hear, but she was really concerned.

Du Xuan looked at Chen Jinniang and said, "It's okay, just think of him as a fool and a fool. Besides, I have to go up the mountain today."

"What?!" Chen Jinniang was stunned, holding her arm and shaking her head repeatedly, "It's too dangerous! It's too dangerous!"

Du Xuanxin said that it was wrong to give up eating because of choking.

After thinking about it, she said, "Mother Jin, my family needs to eat. It's impossible for us to go hungry just because someone choked to death, right?"

Chen Jinniang was stunned after hearing this. The truth was indeed true, but Chen Jinniang was still very worried.

A sneer came from the side, "Chen Jinniang, you really have too much to eat. She wants to go up the mountain to die. Can you stop her and not die?"

Chen Jinniang frowned and looked at the owner of the voice, and her tone became colder, "Du Rong, we are all sisters no matter what, what you said is too outrageous!"

Du Rong glanced at Du Xuan and said to Chen Jinniang, "She is no longer a member of the Du family. The family has been separated now. What kind of sister is she? I wish she had died long ago!"

Du Xuan didn't care about Du Rong's incompetence and rage, and didn't even bother to talk nonsense with her.

Chen Jinniang, on the other hand, was so angry that she, who had never said anything harsh, couldn't help it anymore and said to Du Rong, "Your mouth is really like your mother's. No wonder you can't get married at this age!"

"Damn you!" Du Rong's eyes suddenly widened and she looked at Chen Jinniang fiercely, "What are you talking about! You are a chicken that can't lay good eggs!"

Chen Jinniang became angry and started to speak indiscriminately. She snorted and laughed, "At least I have laid an egg. What about you? No one will step on you even if you want to lay an egg..."

"Ouch..." Du Xuan helplessly covered her eyes and pulled Chen Jinniang away.

Chen Jinniang was still angry and said, "Ms. Xuan, you have a very good temper. Listen to what Rong Ya said about you!"

"I don't have a good temper, but if a dog bites me, I won't bite the dog." Du Xuan said, "If I get annoyed by a dog barking one day, I will just beat her. Why bother?"

Waste of so much breath and time.”

Chen Jinniang didn't react immediately after hearing this. After reacting, she frowned and said, "If you say that, I feel like I bit a dog..."

"Don't bite me anymore." Du Xuan smiled and patted her shoulder, "Okay, I'm going up the mountain, Xiaobao, I'll leave it to you."

Chen Jinniang knew that although Du Xuan was young, she was a very thoughtful girl, so she did not try to persuade her.

There was a reason for Du Xuan to go up the mountain. She had to collect some herbs, and she had to go to the county and town tomorrow.

So Du Xuan actually understood why Qi Yan went up the mountain regardless of rain or shine. Although this man was taciturn, he didn't seem to have a very bright mind.

But he has a sense of responsibility.

He knows that part of the success of his family's life comes from whether he can harvest something from hunting.

So he couldn't stop because winter was coming soon. Everyone knew that after winter, hunting would become more and more difficult.

He must kill everything he can before going through the winter.

Although he still did not lower his guard against Du Xuan, as long as she didn't mess around, he was willing to do whatever he could to make her and Xiaobao live a better life.

Du Xuan is already very proficient in climbing mountains and is very familiar with the route.

So proficient that... Du Xuan herself felt it was a bit magical!

"What a ghost..." Du Xuan muttered, but her footsteps kept moving through the forest for a moment.

It's like there's a map in my mind... No, or I should say, it's like I have a location in my mind, so that I can accurately go to the area where the herbs I want to find grow.

Looking at the large patch of herbs growing mixed with weeds in front of her, Du Xuan couldn't help but look at the palm of her hand.

It seems that the piece of Shennong Jade is indeed magical, and maybe there are many magical effects waiting for you to discover.

But now... what she wants to discover is not some magical effect, but the medicinal herbs in front of her.

Returned with a full load. The herbs were piled up in the space.

But in the eyes of outsiders, Du Xuan basically returned empty-handed.

When Du Xuan went down the mountain and returned to the village, she met Du Rong at the entrance of the village. I don't know if she happened to meet her again, or if she had been waiting here since she went up the mountain.

Du Xuan strongly suspected that it was the latter, as Du Rong was probably waiting here.

Seeing Du Xuan coming down from the mountain, Du Rong walked up in a swagger, opened the lid of Du Xuan's basket and took a look.

Then the tongue popped out a syllable in his mouth, "Tsk, tut, tut."
