Chapter 20 That's a Coincidence
Taking advantage of the early weather, the two of them acted quickly.

Although there are many dangers in the forest, it is actually relatively safe.As long as you don't accidentally provoke some huge and ferocious beast, there will be no problem.

So, act carefully and pay attention to the movement around you.

The cave was dry and clean, and there were no traces of poisonous snakes, insects, or ants, and there was no peculiar smell. The two were relieved and went out together.

The setting sun was slowly sinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the rays of the sun were slowly receding. Neither of them dared to go far. After picking up some firewood and pulling out some wormwood, they saw a wild plum tree with many growths. Fruit, climbed up to pick some, and hurried back to the cave.

Zhao Liya joked with a smile: "There are so many good things in the mountains, hey, it's a pity that I don't have space to carry with me!"

Hu Ling looked confused: "What space?"

Zhao Liya laughed loudly: "Nothing, nothing!"

Not every time-traveling woman can be equipped with storage space and heaven-defying supplies.She had practiced her boxing skills by herself.

After returning to the cave to put down the things, just as they were about to start a fire, someone suddenly yelled "Huh!", which startled the two of them.

The two turned their heads abruptly, and looked at the two strange men.

They didn't pay attention for a while, and they didn't hear the approaching footsteps!
The two stood up, secretly vigilant in their hearts.

Hu Ling subconsciously blocked Zhao Liya behind: "Are you hunters in the mountains?"

The two looked like one was 23, the other was [-] or [-] years old, with good looks and clear eyes. They were dressed in coarse green clothes, short brown clothes, and their legs were bound. The younger one was carrying a basket on his back, and the older one was carrying a bow and quiver.

The younger one grinned: "We are not hunters in the mountains, we are from Yancun."

This tone seems to be quite proud of being a Yancun person?
Hu Ling and Zhao Liya were subconsciously relieved.

Hu Ling was still hesitating whether to tell the truth, but Zhao Liya smiled lightly and said, "What a coincidence, we are also from Yancun!"

The younger one raised his eyebrows in surprise, and chuckled softly: "Oh, that's a coincidence! I thought reporting the history would scare you away!"

Zhao Liya rolled her eyes: "Then you dove to occupy the magpie's nest?"

The younger one laughed loudly: "Ah, I see, you are the new Zhao family, right?" He carelessly put down the basket, and gave Zhao Liya a thumbs up: "Your family are all very powerful."

Zhao Liya frowned slightly and glanced at him. Is this guy planning to live here tonight?

Hu Ling's face became even uglier.How could his righteous sister live in a cave overnight with these two strangers who didn't know the details?Although the Zhao family has already lost, it is not to this point.

Before the two of them spoke, the older one clasped his fists at them: "My name is Lin Mo, and this is my cousin Yu Xiaofang. It's getting late today, can you take us here overnight? We don't live in vain, we are responsible Vigils are held in rotation, and food may be provided."

The words of refusal that came to her mouth turned around and swallowed, Zhao Liya nodded readily: "Yes! Let's take turns in the night watch."

In this wilderness, it would be better if there were more people.

More importantly, she had inquired with Widow Qu before and knew these two people.

The two of them are cousins, they are a family, Lin Mo is a hunter, Yu Xiaofang is a doctor, his medical skills are not good, basically no one sees him, the two of them did not open up wasteland to plant crops, but planted some vegetable gardens. Live by hunting and gathering herbs.

These two people are one of the people in Yan village that the Gu family does not provoke.

I think so, they have nothing, the barefoot one is not afraid of wearing shoes, and the other is a hunter, the value of force is not weak, it is not worthwhile for the Gu family to provoke them.

Zhao Liya thinks that someone who doesn't sell Gu's account is not a bad person, right?
Besides, he doesn't look like a bad guy.

Zhao Liya made a decision, and Hu Ling did not object. He made up his mind that he would not sleep tonight and stay vigilant.

Since it was agreed to spend the night together, of course we also have dinner together.

Zhao Liya and Hu Ling contributed fried rice, and Yu Xiaofang actually found two fat pheasants and a small copper hanging pot that was about the size of the milk pot in the previous life from under a pile of messy herbs in the back basket.

Just right, the fried rice was put into the pot to make porridge, and two wild pheasants were used to roast.

It doesn't matter if you don't have a bowl. Cut a piece of bamboo and take a bamboo tube to use as a bowl.

Zhao Liya also contributed salt and five-spice powder, and the roasted pheasant was extraordinarily fragrant, golden and attractive.

Yu Xiaofang took a sip of the fragrant rice porridge, took a bite of the roasted pheasant, and sighed contentedly: "This day is better than being at home!"

Lin Mo glanced at him, and didn't bother to answer him.

Zhao Liya and Hu Ling couldn't help but make him amused.

With the process of sharing food, everyone subconsciously narrowed the distance.

Yu Xiaofang thought that they had come to the mountains to try their luck picking mountain goods because they were having a hard time, so she couldn't help but persuade them a few words.

It is not so easy to make a fortune in the mountains and forests of Lingnan.

Zhao Liya casually talked about the corvee service, Yu Xiaofang and Lin Mo exchanged glances, Yu Xiaofang sneered and said: "The three brothers of the Gu family are still so disgusting, huh! But they can handle the villagers, the government needs Such people are in charge of the village, so they turn a blind eye to many of their actions. We people are dead, as long as there are no major incidents that cannot be handled, the government will not care at all."

Zhao Liya's heart moved, does this mean that if they can be killed and replaced, will life be much easier and freer?Although it's not possible right now, anyone who has a dream is amazing, work hard, what if it comes true someday?

Zhao Liya smiled nonchalantly: "They sent us this errand, we had nothing to say, so we had to go into the mountain. Brother Lin, Brother Yu, is it easy to find this Ganoderma lucidum in the mountain?"

Yu Xiaofang was overjoyed, "It's hard to say!"

Lin Mo: "There are Ganoderma lucidum in the mountains, whether you can find it or not depends on luck."

Yu Xiaofang: "Yes, I wish you good luck, hey!"

Lin Mo: "If you really can't find it, do you have other ways to deal with it?"

Zhao Liya was helpless: "If you can't find it, there is no other way. I have to ask Gong Cao for help. If Yu Gong Cao is not accommodating, then I will think of other ways."

Hu Ling added: "If you can't do it, go to hard labor!"

Lin Mo: "As long as you find Ganoderma lucidum, no matter how old it is, you can get some points by handing in it. Without Ganoderma lucidum, other things are also fine, such as rare medicinal materials such as Dendrobium and Gastrodia elata, or white fungus, Hericium erinaceus, chanterelles, etc. , can be handed in, no matter how much good things you say, Yu Gongcao is still good at talking."

Yu Xiaofang also nodded: "Yes, yes, even the punishment of hard labor will be lighter at that time, which is a bit of an advantage. Or if you have spare money, you can also pay it off, but don't take enough money to pay off the punishment. It’s too eye-catching and easy to miss.”

"Thank you two brothers for reminding me!" Zhao Liya smiled gratefully and nodded.
