Chapter 10
I’ll Carry You
But the problem was that Song Xiuyan still didn’t know who those people were and why they wanted to harm him. But in this life, he had to figure it out, and he would never let those people go! Previously, Song Xiuyan had always thought that he junxed the people around him. But now, he realized that the deaths of his wife, brother, and sister-in-law all had other reasons! 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m
Song Xiuyan paused for a moment and shook his head at Ding Yao. “I can’t think of any enemies for the time being. If I really have any enemies that I don’t know about, are you afraid that I’ll implicate you?” He wanted to ask Ding Yao if she still dared to follow him home. Ding Yao smiled and mouthed her reply. “I’m not afraid!” What was she afraid of? Besides, there were still people who wanted to kill her in the dark. Who knew who would implicate whom.
Song Xiuyan saw that Ding Yao answered so readily and solemnly promised, “Don’t worry. I’ll do my best to protect you. As long as I’m here, no one can hurt you.”
Ding Yao thought that Song Xiuyan was a man who was quite responsible. She admired him very much, but there was no need to protect her. She could protect herself. Perhaps she could also protect Song Xiuyan and his siblings. After all, Song Xiuyan didn’t mind that she was a mute.
Ding Yao continued to climb up the mountain. Song Xiuyan chased after her and asked, “How about I carry you? You lost too much blood just now. Do you feel dizzy after exercising so much?”
In fact, Song Xiuyan had always been very strange. When he first saw Ding Yao, she was so weak that she looked like she was about to die. Although he had given Ding Yao inner energy, inner energy wasn’t a panacea; it was impossible for Ding Yao to hold on until now. He was afraid that Ding Yao didn’t have the strength, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
Ding Yao shook her head. After rejecting Song Xiuyan’s good intentions, she began to slow down the speed of climbing the mountain. Then, she pointed at a herb and asked Song Xiuyan to dig it out by the roots. This herb was called “Upside-down Yellow”. It had the effect of dispersing blood stasis and strengthening tendons. At the same time, it also had the function of cooling and stopping bleeding. It was mainly used to recuperate the swelling and pain caused by external injuries. “Upside-down Yellow” could be used to boil water for Song Yang to drink and remove the remaining snake venom in his body. It could also be used to boil bone soup. It could also be sold for money. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
After Song Xiuyan had dug out the “Upside-down Yellow” along with its roots, Ding Yao went on to ask Song Xiuyan to find the same plant as the “Upside-down Yellow” in his hand. After that, she wanted to rest on the spot. Song Xiuyan didn’t suspect her and quickly looked around for “Upside-down Yellow”.
Ding Yao began to look at the plants around her. At first, she said that she wanted to dig for medicinal herbs for other reasons. At first, she didn’t want to go to Song Xiuyan’s house. Although she looked like an 18-year-old girl on the surface, in reality, she was a mature woman. It was impossible for a stranger like Song Xiuyan to live in his house as soon as she got to know him. She also didn’t want to tie herself to Song Xiuyan for the rest of her life. However, she had thought it through now. It didn’t matter if she lived in Song Xiuyan’s house first. She would make plans for the future. If the people who wanted to harm her were the same as the people who wanted to harm Song Yang, she could deal with them together.
Ding Yao’s only worry was that Song Xiuyan’s family was too poor. If she wanted to live in Song Xiuyan’s house, the first thing she had to do was to solve the problem of food and clothing. Ding Yao looked left and right and finally found a dead tree not far away. There were traces of someone digging on the tree. She walked over and made the traces bigger. Then, she took out two 50-year-old wild Ganoderma and pretended to have just picked them from the dead tree.
Song Xiuyan soon found two more “Upside-down Yellow” . He turned around and wanted to tell Ding Yao, but he didn’t expect to see Ding Yao. he shouted anxiously, “Ding Yao! Ding Yao!”
Ding Yao heard his voice. After standing up, she shook two Wild Ganoderma toward Song Xiuyan. “Ah Ah... Ah Ah!” She meant to say she was lucky to pick two Ganoderma!
These two Ganoderma lucidum were considered relatively young in the space of Ding Yao’s medicinal field. The main thing was that this place wasn’t some remote mountain forest. If one took out a Ganoderma that was more than 100 years old and 300 years old, it would inevitably arouse suspicion. However, a Ganoderma that was too young wasn’t worth much. She could only take the middle value and take a Ganoderma that was around 50 years old.
These two Ganoderma lucidum lucidum should be able to be exchanged for a lot of money.
Song Xiuyan came over. He was very surprised when he saw the Ganoderma. However, Ding Yao quickly noticed the confusion in his eyes. Song Xiuyan went over to check the picking marks on the dead wood and asked Ding Yao, “How did you find them?”
