Chapter V

Her face turned bitter. "You got this grass too, I'm leaving."

As soon as she took a step forward, a tree branch was placed horizontally in front of her. At this moment, Chen Xiaoyan was no longer disguising herself with her.

She viciously reached out to grab the blade in Chen Xiaoyu's hand.

"How dare you." Chen Xiaoyu was so angry that she threw a flying kick at the girl who was two years older than her.

Chen Xiaoyan lightly pinched the sole of her foot and pulled it forward. "Idiot. If you want to fight with me, you should see how strong you are."

Chen Xiaoyan saw the thorn not far away, her eyes turned, fiercely pushing Chen Xiaoyu into the grass.

"Ah …" After Chen Xiaoyu was pushed into the grass, beads of blood started to appear all over her body.

His whole body was burning. Every part of him was in pain, and every part of him was in pain.

"Hehe, although I am only at the first level of Qi Refinement Stage, I am still much stronger than a fool like you. Hmph, you dare to fight with me? In your next life. Elder sister has taken a fancy to this blade. It's your fortune. "

Chen Xiaoyan took out her saber and looked at Chen Xiaoyu with malicious intent.

"Look at you, you're so ugly. It was truly not pleasing. Looking at your eyes, I can't help but think of your despicable self. Sis Sis Sai Sai, hmph, women with the same moral character as your Sis Sis, they are not good scum. "

There was viciousness in her eyes, and Chen Xiaoyu had no doubt that this woman was going to kill her. Just when she was ready to ignore everything and enter space.

The blade in Chen Xiaoyan's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

"Ah …" "Chen Xiaoyan covered her arm and looked around in shock." Who is it? "Who's near here?" However, no one could answer her.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with a fool like you." Hmph, consider yourself lucky. I'll spare your life today for now. "

Chen Xiaoyan wasn't stupid. She knew that someone had interrupted her earlier attack and didn't want to see her killed. Therefore, she didn't dare to be too fussy and left with the blade in her hand.

Staring at that arrogant back, Chen Xiaoyu secretly bit down on it. She swore that in the future, she would definitely snatch back Dongfang Yan'er's treasure.

After Chen Xiaoyan left, two figures descended from the sky.

The purple-clothed woman in the lead had her eyebrows raised, and her figure was prominent.

"Hey, how are you? Do you want me to help you? " The woman sounded impatient. However, Chen Xiaoyu did have some feelings for her. This girl's temper was the type that was on fire. However, she should … A very straightforward person.

Standing behind her was a silent man of fourteen or fifteen years. That person half-stepped on a sword and looked down at Chen Xiaoyu as if she was a reptile. This feeling was not good, but Chen Xiaoyu endured the pain and crawled to her feet.

Not caring about the thorns or thorns on her body, she bowed towards the woman and said, "Thank you for saving my life. I will definitely repay you in the future."

Huang Ziyang laughed and shook his head, "Forget it. I'm counting on you, a mortal, to repay me. This is truly hilarious." Forget it, I don't think you're too serious. Here, this is a medicine to treat injuries. I'll give you one. "

With that, Huang Ziyang threw down a bottle of medicine and turned to leave.

"Senior Brother, let's go."

"Ziyang, give a mortal a healing medicine like that … If Master finds out, I'll nag you again. "

Chen Xiaoyu's displeased voice sounded from afar, causing her to clench the bottle tightly once again. He didn't expect that in this cold and detached world, he would still meet someone like the girl he just met.

It had to be said that while she was out of luck, she was also out of luck. However, the danger she faced today made her realize her own inadequacies. She had to become strong so that she wouldn't be bullied. Otherwise, the scene today would reappear.

Chen Xiaoyu felt pain all over her body, so she found a place with no people. She first entered the space to remove the thorns, then swallowed a pill and could barely walk down the mountain.

She was afraid that Chen Xiaoyan would be lying in ambush by the side of the road, so she took another route.

By the time she descended the mountain, the sky had already darkened.

When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, Chen Xiaoyu quickly took the items out of the space and put them into the basket bit by bit.

It was a pity that the herb would only mature completely tomorrow, so she could only take some wolf meat and a big piece of tiger meat each.

However, there was a stalk of Luohu Grass that had matured, so she took that stalk out to make her family feel more at ease. Only then would she be able to set off for the mountain the next day.

The sky was getting darker. Just as he reached the village entrance, he was startled by a black shadow charging towards him from the side.

"Sis, you're finally back." It was the sound of her little brother's voice. Hearing the concerned words, Chen Xiaoyu heaved a sigh of relief.

"Little brother, you scared me, and I thought that I was in the wild when you rushed out like that."

"Hehe, I also want to be a bit slower, but ever since I heard that you went up the mountain, I have been keeping watch here. If it wasn't for my sister pulling me, I would have come to the mountain to find you. " Chen Ziming pouted and pointed at her, looking extremely wronged. He picked up a piece of meat from her back and said, "Big Sis, we have meat to eat tonight."

At this moment, Chen Xiaoyu saw a slim and slim figure standing not far away. The person's shoulders were constantly shaking, and his head was lowered so that she couldn't see him.

So it wasn't just her little brother who came to pick her up, even the elder sister who only knew about embroidery all day came out to greet her.

"Sis, I'm back. "Don't cry, I'm very safe, haha …"

Chen Xiaoge raised his head and glared at her, sniffling with a stubborn snort, "I'm not crying at all, you wild girl. If I don't come back soon, I'm going to climb the mountain." "Come, let's go home. I'll carry this basket."

Even though she said those words fiercely, Chen Xiaoyu could still hear the tears in her voice.

This strange family, this strange siblings … Yet, it caused her heart to feel inexplicably warm.

At this moment, all of her hard work was worth it.

"How can you have meat? "What kind of meat is this?" After the pleasant surprise of their reunion, the girl's doubts surfaced.

"Oh, sister, this is a piece of wild wolf meat that I got lucky to pick up. Alas, this wolf was simply too big. So that's all I can do. The other half, I hid in a secluded place. Tomorrow, I must find a way to carry them back. "

"Ah, such a good thing? Looks like your luck is indeed quite good. " Chen Xiaotong was also excited. After all, her family... I haven't seen any meat stars in almost half a year. Now, even if she didn't find any herbs, she would at least have meat to eat.

"Mm, this meat is not worth much if I sell it. At least my family can save up enough money to eat it." In her heart, Chen Xiaotong was somewhat sad. She was too embarrassed to ask if her little sister had any medicinal herbs.

In her opinion, if he had, perhaps he would have already told her about it. She didn't want to strike a blow, so she decided to just not ask. In any case, this little sister didn't waste any energy going up the mountain. At least half of the wolf meat.

After returning home, Mama hugged her and cried for a while. After she was released, she scooped out the Luo Hu Grass from her basket. The whole family was stunned.

"This... This is really Luo Hu Grass! " After Chen Xiaotong confirmed it several times, she burst into tears of joy.

Mrs Zhao hugged Chen Xiaoyu again as she continued to cry. With Mama's weak personality, it was no wonder that she would be shooed away not long after her father had passed away. With her water-like personality, she was really at the mercy of others.

"Mama, it's a joyous occasion today. If we continue to cry like this, we would have transferred our fortune with great difficulty. What if we lose our ability to cry?"

Mrs Zhao, upon hearing her elder sister's words, dried her tears on the spot. "Yes, yes, this is a joyous event. Mama felt heartache for the second girl. "How dangerous is this mountain? I heard that there are many young tribesmen who couldn't escape from mother's interference even if they went up the mountain …"

Seeing that her eyes were about to turn red again, Chen Xiaoyu hurried her and said, "Mama, I'm hungry. Hurry up and make some meat for me." We haven't had meat in a long time. "

In this way, he sent Mama, who loved to cry, away.

Putting the grass in Chen Xiaoge's hand, Xiaoyu advised her with a serious expression, "Sis, from now on, don't do embroidery work anymore. "This isn't good for my eyes. I believe that I can find enough herbs every day if I go up the mountain. At that time, we won't need to be driven away, and we can stay here together. We can cultivate and live longer than anyone else."

Looking at the glowing grass in his hand, Chen Xiaoge felt his eyes go sour.

She nodded and put the herb into a wooden box.

"Herbs that can be used by cultivators, preferably stored in a special wooden box. Of course, a box made out of jade was the best. But we... Where would he get the free money to buy it? This wooden box was made by Father when he was still alive. "

Seeing these wooden boxes, Chen Xiaoge's nose began to ache even more. She looked up at the sky and gave Chen Xiaoyu one last pat on the shoulder. My sister is the best. "

Zi Ming also came over, "That's right, my second sister has always been the best. As I said, my sister is the most intelligent person. In the past, she just didn't want to pay attention to those people. Now that she has an epiphany and knows that our family is in trouble, she stopped pretending. "

The two sisters were amused by their subordinate's words.

That night, the people of Chen Family ate some meat. Because there was a lot of fresh meat, Mrs Zhao fried quite a few types of meat. Returning meat, sliced meat soup, shredded meat... Chilled Meat...

With the table full of meat, the family ate until their stomachs were full. After the meal, the little brother walked in circles in the yard while bowing and yelling.

"Second sister, you're going up the mountain tomorrow, so I won't stop you." However, your safety is number one. Even if we can't pay the tax, we'll be kicked out. I also don't want you to lose your life because of the tax. As long as our family is well, I believe that we will have a way out. " Before going to bed, Chen Xiaotong once again instructed him in a soft voice.

The situation at home did not allow her to intercept her sister.

It was a quiet night. The next day, the chickens were crowing loudly. Chen Xiaoyu got up and prepared to go up the mountain to get something to eat.

Who would have thought that Mrs Zhao, Chen Xiaocheng, and even her little brother had woken up.

The three of them looked at her helplessly. Their little brother only had one sentence, "Sis, I will make things difficult for you on the mountain, but I still want to send you on the mountain."

Mrs Zhao, on the other hand, was busy cooking. She made a few meat pancakes and a pot of porridge.

When the meal was done, she carried a bag of biscuits on her back and said, "Let's go. Mama doesn't have the ability, but she can still carry some meat back." Anyway, my daughter found the wolf. That's our family's rations for a few days. "

Chen Xiaoyu wanted to refuse, but when she saw the resolute look in the three pairs of eyes, she knew she couldn't refuse.

With no other choice, he carried the dry rations and water on his back and set off for the mountain again.

Along the way, they met a family not too far away that wanted to go into the mountain. However, they were strong men who had gone up the mountain, and they were the children of a weak mother.
