Lin Xi suddenly raised his head and looked up, and saw that the person appearing above turned out to be Shen Chen!

The vine was broken in the middle, and Shen Chen jumped down from above at that moment, grabbing the vine above with one hand, and the other hand caught the falling vine below in time.

Lin Xi hurriedly grabbed the vine.

But her other hand was still protecting Ganoderma lucidum. For a moment, she failed to grasp the vine with one hand, and her swaying body directly hit the gravel protruding from the slope on the side, causing a sharp pain in her back.

"hiss……"

Lin Xi gasped in pain.

Fortunately I didn't fall.

Lin Xi reluctantly looked up and saw that Shen Chen was already pulling the vines up, taking her up at the same time.

After all, he was carrying one person, and Shen Chen's legs and feet were not very convenient, so his speed was a bit slow.

Lin Xi quickly picked up the Ganoderma lucidum, stood up by the vine, and climbed up carefully to reduce Shen Chen's burden.

With Shen Chen, Lin Xi felt much more relaxed than when he came down.

Of course, this was mainly because after Shen Chen went up, he directly used force to pull the vine up along with her.

It didn't take long for Lin Xi to return to the slope safely.

Her health was not as good as that of Shen Chen. She sat down on the ground, panting heavily to calm herself down.

Shen Chen threw aside the vine used by Lin Xi, looked down, then turned to look at Lin Xi, frowning slightly.

Lin Xi met his gaze, quickly took out the Ganoderma lucidum from his arms, and explained: "I didn't go down here just looking for trouble. Look, there is this Ganoderma lucidum growing down there. I have checked it. It is at least a hundred years old. Good stuff, useful to us all.”

Shen Chen's eyes stayed on the Ganoderma lucidum for a few seconds, then he just hummed and turned to the side.

Lin Xi followed his movements and saw Shen Chen's hunting equipment not far away, as well as two hares and three pheasants.

Seeing that although Shen Chen was walking with a slight limp, his steps were very steady, his back was straight, and his face was as usual. Lin Xi had sincere admiration for him.

After experiencing this thrilling experience, Shen Chen still acted like a normal person.

Moreover, Shen Chen didn't look at Ganoderma lucidum twice as it seemed that Ganoderma lucidum didn't arouse his interest.

Sure enough, it's not something ordinary people like her can compare to.

Lin Xi glanced at the hillside with lingering fear, stood up from the ground, and put the Ganoderma lucidum into the bamboo basket.

Feeling unsafe, Lin Xi poured out all the herbs and wild vegetables and put the Ganoderma lucidum at the bottom.

As the saying goes, an ordinary man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade.

She actually carried Ganoderma lucidum back to the village carelessly. She might have aroused many people's thoughts, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Lin Xi took the bamboo basket on his back, but as soon as he put it on his back, his eyes suddenly dimmed and he fell forward.

When he was about to fall to the ground, someone grabbed Lin Xi's arm.

Shen Chen pulled hard, brought the person back to him, and held Lin Xi firmly with one hand.

When Lin Xi came to his heart, Shen Chen looked down at her, frowned and called out, "Lin Xi?"

Lin Xi felt a dark shadow falling in front of her eyes, and Shen Chen's cold aura enveloped her, which was extremely oppressive. She shook her head hard and said hurriedly: "It's okay, it's okay, I can still live!"

Shen Chen: "..."

After he woke up after falling into the water, this man had something wrong with his brain.

Lin Xi took a step back, and Shen Chen let go of her.

Shen Chen watched Lin Xi squatting down and rummaging through the bamboo basket expertly, quickly finding the herbs he needed and throwing them into his mouth to chew. After a while, his face looked much better.

His eyes were sharp and searching flashed by, "Do you know medicine?"

"Yeah yeah!"

The Linxi chicken nodded like it was pecking at rice.

Shen Chen said calmly: "How come I haven't seen you behave like this before?"

Lin Xi's movement of swallowing the herbal medicine stopped suddenly, almost getting stuck in her throat.

She raised her head and met Shen Chen's dark eyes with unknown meaning. Although there was no emotion at all, she felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.

Could it be that the villain is suspecting that she is not the original owner?

If not, what will he do?

Did she click in this deep mountain and old forest?

Lin Xi glanced around. The forest was deep and quiet, and he forced himself to calm down and said, "I didn't have the chance before."

Shen Chen said: "Half a year ago, Erbao fell ill and had a fever in the rain and almost died. Why didn't you use it at that time?"

Lin Xi almost bit her tongue.

She knew that it was the original owner who had caused Erbao to get caught in the rain. It was a heavy rain day, and while Shen Chen was not at home, the original owner forced the rebellious Erbao out to get wet in the rain. No wonder Erbao didn't want to see her.

This is the proposition of giving!

Lin Xi replied tentatively: "Maybe at that time, I was obsessed with ghosts?"

Shen Chen twitched his lips, ignored her, turned and left.

Before he had taken two steps, he suddenly stopped again, turned back, grabbed Lin Xi's bamboo basket, and carried it away.

Lin Xi blinked and quickly followed, saying: "Shen Chen, I know that I have done many wrong things in the past, and I will make up for it in the future."

Shen Chen's face was expressionless.

Lin Xi thought he didn't believe it and said, "I'm really sincere. I had already planned it when I was at home in the morning. Now I don't have much food at home, and what you bought is a hundred pounds of corn flour and half a pound of white flour." , these should be enough to last for a few months, but they won’t last through the winter. Although you can improve your food with the game you bring back from hunting from time to time, there’s nothing you can do about it in the winter.”

"I think that during this period, we can make some bacon and other things to prepare for the winter. This way, when we can't buy meat in the winter, we can improve the food for the children. As for food, our family doesn't have much land, so we can only It depends on buying it, so the most important thing right now is making money.”

Lin Xi had made some calculations and found that the family didn't have much money at all.

Apart from the money spent on her illness, the total she knew was only a little over two taels of silver.

But the house at home was in dilapidated condition. The original owner remembered that the winter here was very cold, so the house had to be renovated before winter came. When the original owner was working on the project, he broke a lot of things in the house and had to replace them. The four children needed to make winter clothes. , Shen Chen also needs it; the only vegetable plot at home should also be sown. If it is timely, a wave of vegetables can be harvested before winter. The winter seeds must be left so that there will be vegetables to eat next spring.

Putting all the scattered things together, that little money is really not enough. We really need to make money, and...

"It's too dangerous for you to go hunting in the mountains at this time. We can find other sources of income. For example, selling wild vegetables, and I can also process and sell medicinal materials. For example, the Ganoderma lucidum I just dug will definitely fetch a good price. When the time comes, first Buy all the things you need at home, and if you have enough money, you can renovate your home, what do you think?"

"Oh, by the way, we need to buy charcoal fire for the winter."

After careful calculation, Lin Xi had a headache.

As expected, you don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are when you’re not a householder.

Why do you need to spend money on so many places?

Lin Xi didn't hear Shen Chen's response and looked at him doubtfully, but saw Shen Chen looking at her strangely, as if she had said something incredible.

Lin Xi muttered in her heart: "What? Is what I said wrong?"

She had never worried about these things before, so she really didn't know what she had missed or what was wrong.

Shen Chen withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "You wouldn't care about these things before."
