Chapter 0040 – Fluke in Mind (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCAt this moment Chu Qiaoqiao is the heart of luck, she looks forward to in this huge mountain, can will need to find their own herbs at the same time, but also be able to pick some valuable herbs, after processing drying, and then take to the town to sell, in exchange for some silver.
Nay, the heavens were not kind, and the originally sunny day suddenly became cloudy, followed by a pounding rain.
Stranger Changhe, who had originally ignored Chu Qiaoqiao, suddenly became nervous.
Without the slightest hesitation, he took off his coat and covered Chu Qiaoqiao’s head before snatching the basket from her hands and carrying it over his shoulder.
Immediately afterward, he held onto one of Chu Qiaoqiao’s hands and walked towards the mountain at a hurried pace.
Chu Qiaoqiao frowned, full of doubts, and inquired to Mo Changhe, “Shouldn’t we be going down the mountain?”
“It’s too late, I know there’s a cave on the mountain, we can go there to hide for a while, and when the rain stops, we’ll go down the mountain.”
Stranger Changhe hunted in the mountains all year round, so he was naturally familiar with the terrain here.
Encountering such a situation, Chu Qiaoqiao naturally chose to believe.
Soon, they arrived at the cave.
After Mor Changhe spread the straw inside the cave and settled Chu Qiaoqiao down, he began to search outside the cave for dead tree branches that could be used.
To protect herself from jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, she lit dead branches and rose
A bonfire was started.
Though they dodged even though, their bodies were more or less wet from the rain.
Mor Changhe glanced at Chu Qiaoqiao, who was sitting by the straw and constantly shivering, and decisively stood up, found some more straw, and flattened it out beside the campfire.
Only after everything was ready did Stranger Changhe invite Chu Qiaoqiao over to roast the fire.
“And I wonder how long this rain is going to last?”
Chu Qiaoqiao sat by the campfire, but her eyes looked around from time to time and said with slight emotion.
“I guess it won’t stop for a while, you are hungry, right? I still have some dry food here, you eat a few bites first to pad your stomach, there is just a fire, I will call these mountain chickens to deal with a little bit, and later give you roasted mountain chickens to eat.”
Stranger Changhe’s inquiry caused Chu Qiaoqiao to raise her head, the corners of her lips lifting into a faint smile as she said rather seriously, “You’re not angry with me anymore?”
Hearing Chu Qiaoqiao speak like this, Mor Changhe sighed helplessly and asked back in a hard tone, “Is it useful to be angry? You didn’t do everything you shouldn’t have done?”
Being told off by Stranger Changhe like this, Chu Qiaoqiao smiled awkwardly.
In order to let Mor Changhe relax, Chu Qiaoqiao swore to make a promise to him: “In fact, you don’t have to worry too much, the formula of the antidote, I have already figured it out, just want to match all these medicines, it is indeed a bit difficult. But before you
The ones picked for me will be enough to last me until I get the antidote together.”
Life was Chu Qiaoqiao’s own, and although Mor Changhe was angry that she was so incapable of valuing her own life, there was not a single thing he could do about it.
Thinking of those poisons that Chu Qiaoqiao had captured earlier, Mo Changhe inquired to her once again with palpitations in his heart, “Are you sure that this method of fighting poisons with poisons as you said in your mouth is effective?”
“It’s naturally effective! Why else would I waste time catching them here? Wasting time is a small thing, risking my life to catch them is a big thing, and if it doesn’t work, there’s no need for me to mess around like this, is there?”
Chu Qiaoqiao’s words with such conviction really made Stranger Changhe a little puzzled.
Although he had suspected that Chu Qiaoqiao was lying, after all, the doctor had already diagnosed that Chu Qiaoqiao’s poisoning had gone deep into her bones, and there was no cure! But Chu Qiaoqiao wanted him to find those two herbs that could be easily found to cure the poison, which really made people suspicious.
“I hope you’re not lying to me this time!”
