Another whole day of searching.

When Chen Jing and Niu Jiang came out of the mountain, some anxiety inevitably emerged on his handsome face, because today's search was still nothing, except for a lot of photos of wild plants on his phone.

"Boy Chen, how many days do you have to go into the mountain to observe? There will be more and more snakes in the mountain during this period, and it will be even more unsafe at that time." Niu Jiangang asked.

Chen Jingying said, "How many days will it take?" As he said that, Chen Jing took out some cash from his body and stuffed it into Niu Jiangang's pocket without any trace: "Please trouble Uncle Niu."

Niu Jiangang was stunned and hesitated: "This, this is not good. Didn't I say yesterday that I don't need to..."

"Uncle Niu, this is my little intention, nothing." Chen Jing said with a smile.

I was given cash and money for food and rice, so there was nothing.

So Niu Jiangang finally put it away. He felt a little strange in his heart. He probably never expected that he, a forest ranger, would have such benefits.

However, the reason why he harvested was because he followed Chen Jing today and found that he was indeed here to observe the wild plants, and he just took photos and didn't even pull them away.

Otherwise, Niu Jiangang would not dare to accept it.

…………

When he returned to the homestay where he was staying, Kong Xue prepared food for him as usual. After Chen Jing took a shower, he started eating a little absent-mindedly.

He was a little anxious at this moment.

In fact, after only two days of searching, Chen Jing wouldn't have started to be anxious under normal circumstances, but today, the news of the Maoer Mountain Nature Reserve heard from Niu Jiangang that he was affected by the large-scale search.

He was indeed worried that Maoershan was not Zhaoyaoshan at all.

"Xiao Chen, is it okay?" Kong Xue asked with some concern when she saw him frowning.

Chen Jing shook his head and sighed subconsciously: "It's okay, it's just a little tired."

Seeing his eldest boy like this, Kong Xue said with heartache in her eyes: "Xiao Chen, don't put so much pressure on yourself. Let's look for it slowly, you can always find it, right?"

Kong Xue didn't know that there was a time limit for finding Xuan Li, so she comforted and encouraged her.

"Yes." Chen Jing responded, afraid that his elder sister would be anxious with her, so he deliberately added with a smile: "Actually, it's not that tired to have Sister Xue by my side. Just let me see you more later."

Kong Xue angrily glanced at him: "Can you avoid getting tired by looking at me?"

"Well..." Chen Jing pondered for a while and said with a wicked smile: "It's necessary to be particularly close, it's best to have a negative distance."

Hearing the negative distance, Kong Xue's face turned slightly red and she said shyly: "Then you hurry up and have a meal. Don't you have to get up early tomorrow~"

…………

Two more days passed in a flash. As the area Chen Jing searched for deepened, the time wasted on going down the mountain was getting more and more. If this continued, he would have to stay overnight in the forest.

"I said to Mr. Chen, you have been observing this for several days, haven't you finished it?"

When he entered the mountain that day, Niu Jiangang asked again. He had no other intentions, just because he was confused. After all, Chen Jingke has taken many photos of wild plants these days.

So much is not enough?

Chen Jing sighed in his heart, knowing that if this continues, Niu Jiangang will be suspicious. He either finds the place where Xuan Li hides within these two days, or he can only sleep quietly in the mountains and start searching day and night.

Fortunately, in the past few days, he has learned some skills in survival in the wild with Niu Jiangang, which should be enough to deal with some dangerous situations that will occur in the wild.

"It's been two days." Chen Jing replied with a smile on his face.

"Then if you want to go into the mountains to observe wild plants, or if you have classmates who want to go into the mountains, you can contact me." Niu Jiangang said happily.

Chen Jing replied that he would definitely do it next time.

Soon after, the two of them quickly reached the location they found yesterday. After a brief rest, they continued to search deeper areas.

"I will be able to use mysteries tomorrow. God, give me a surprise." Chen Jing looked at the area that had not been searched for before, thinking in his heart.

After searching for a long time, Chen Jing suddenly felt that the temperature seemed to be getting lower. He subconsciously looked up at the sky and said, "Is it going to rain? Why do you feel cold?"

Niu Jiangang next to him replied: "No, there is a lake in front of you, which is the lake I told you before, saying there is a water ghost."

This is by the lake, and it does feel colder.

Chen Jing was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why can the lake be heard in such a remote area? "

Niu Jiangang shrugged: "A few years ago, some people who like fishing would go to the lake to fish, saying that the resources were abundant and it was a fish nest. Later, they said that there were water ghosts in the lake, and no one dared to come in the past few years."

Forehead……

Hearing Niu Jiangang's explanation, Chen Jing said in his heart that the fisherman is really awesome. Even such primitive forests dare to come in to fish.

"Oh, by the way, I remember there are a lot of wild plants by the lake. Do you want to go and have a look at it? The lake is not big, but it is quite beautiful. We can have lunch there by the way." Niu Jiangang suggested again.

Chen Jing had no objection to this.

Afterwards, Niu Jiangang took Chen Jing through a jungle and arrived at the edge of the lake.

The lake is indeed not big, about the size of two football fields. The lake water is clear and reflects shimmering in the sun. There are also a lot of hemlock trees to the west, which makes you look a little like a landscape lake at first glance.

Niu Jiangang took Chen Jing to find an open space and sat down while taking out food and drinks, saying, "Actually, you really don't want to say it. This is indeed a good place to fish, but it's too remote."

Chen Jing smiled and said, "Yes, there must be many wild fish in the lake. No one has come to catch them for many years, so some fish are scary."

"As a nature reserve, all wild animals grow well." Niu Jiangang took a sip of water and said, "Not only animals, but also plants grow well. In some aspects, this artificially cultivated plant is definitely not as good as the wild plants in nature."

Chen Jing smiled unanimously.

At this time, Niu Jiangang raised his hand and pointed at the hemlock trees west of the lake and said, "Let's talk about those hemlock trees. They grow by the lake and are not afraid of dying. I'm afraid they are at least hundreds of years old. If it weren't for the nature reserve, they would have been cut down long ago."

"That's the reason." Chen Jing ate and responded casually.

etc!

"Uncle Niu, you just said that those hemlock trees are at least hundreds of years old?" Chen Jing felt a flash of inspiration in his mind. He caught something faintly, and his heartbeat increased a little.
Chapter completed!
