The days passed one by one, and Jiang Chuyue was looking forward to the return of Xiao Yihao and Liu Wu. However, when the three-day deadline was about to arrive, Mo Xun sent another letter saying that they were sent to the headquarters of Shuiyun Pavilion to investigate a secret agent, and would be delayed for a few days before returning.

The endless waiting and anxiety made Jiang Chuyue unable to sit still.

She decided to go find Xiao Yihao and Liu Wu in person. No matter what happened, good or bad, she had to figure it out herself. She couldn't continue to sit at home waiting for news.

After everything at home was settled and we were ready to leave, something happened in the village again.

"Sister Jiang, you have to help us check. The herbs in the field were growing well yesterday, but when I got up this morning to check, they were wilted."

The people in Wanshan Village now rely on the medicinal herbs and crops in the fields. Now that something has happened to the medicinal herbs, they are naturally worried.

Jiang Chuyue patiently comforted Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang, don't worry, I'll go and help you take a look and see what's going on."

But when she opened the door and saw the yard full of villagers, Jiang Chuyue frowned unconsciously.

"Why are you all here here today?" When Jiang Chuyue asked this question, a doubt had already arisen in her heart.

The villagers’ reactions and answers also confirmed Jiang Chuyue’s suspicions.

"Sister Jiang, something has happened to the herbs in the field."

……

After asking this, I found out that the medicinal herbs grown by almost every household in Wanshan Village had encountered problems. Shen Rong, who arrived late, also confirmed the news.

"Have you checked the fields? Are you sure all the herbs are wilted?" Jiang Chuyue looked at Shen Rong. Shen Rong had specially followed Jiang Chuyue to learn for a period of time. He could solve most of the problems with the herbs.

What even Shen Rong can't solve now is naturally not a simple thing.

"I've checked them all. They're all wilted. I also checked the soil and fertilizer. There's nothing wrong." There was one thing Shen Rong didn't say. Even if there was something wrong with the soil or fertilizer, it was impossible that all the medicinal herbs in Wanshan Village would be in trouble.

Even Shen Rong's house was no exception, all the medicinal herbs had wilted.

"I have sent people to other villages to inquire about the situation. We will have news in about half an hour." Shen Rong thought very carefully and also took into account the medicinal herb planting situation in other villages.

Jiang Chuyue pondered for a moment and decided to go to the field to check the situation first. "Lead the way. We have to go and see for ourselves to know what the problem is."

As soon as Jiang Chuyue moved, all the villagers in the yard followed suit. Jiang Chuyue knew that they were concerned about the medicinal herbs in the fields, so she didn't persuade them to leave first. She just let them follow her and go to the fields.

Not long after arriving at the field, Jiang Chuyue noticed something was wrong at a glance. The leaves of all the medicinal herbs were wilted and had burnt edges. Jiang Chuyue went down to the field and personally checked the herbs in the field.

His face darkened. Shen Rong and the other villagers could tell that something was wrong, but they still had to bite the bullet and ask.

"Chu Yue, what happened to this medicinal herb?"

Jiang Chuyue didn't say anything, and motioned Shen Rong to continue leading the way. They walked through all the people's fields in silence, and more than an hour had passed.

Shen Da, who was sent by Shen Rong to other villages to inquire about the situation, also came back.

"Dad, the herbs from other villages are all fine. I haven't heard of any problems."

Shen Rong subconsciously turned his head to look at Jiang Chuyue, and noticed that Jiang Chuyue's face was getting worse and worse. Shen Rong didn't dare to offend Jiang Chuyue for a moment. Jiang Chuyue has never been a good-tempered person. They couldn't afford to make her unhappy by accident.

But the villagers of Wanshan Village couldn't hold it in any longer. "Sister Jiang, what happened to our medicinal herbs? We rely on what grows in the fields to survive. If something happens to these herbs, our lives will be ..."

As he spoke, he wiped away his tears.

They had worked hard for several months, and the medicinal herbs were about to mature and they were waiting for a good harvest, but this happened.

It's a personal mentality that has to collapse.

"There is no problem with the planting of medicinal herbs." Jiang Chuyue finally spoke, "The problem with the medicinal herbs is that someone poisoned them, causing them to suddenly have problems. Not only are the medicinal herbs in trouble, but the land used to plant medicinal herbs cannot be used to plant anything else for a short period of time."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

No one expected that the problem with the medicinal materials was caused by someone poisoning them. Some people couldn't believe it and wanted Jiang Chuyue to take another look, while others had already broken down.

Shen Rong saw that everyone's emotions were out of control and was afraid that Jiang Chuyue would be injured by mistake, so he quickly asked Shen Da to escort Jiang Chuyue to a safer place.

"I know everyone is feeling very uncomfortable." Jiang Chuyue knew that if she left at this time, the villagers' emotions would become even more unstable.

"But the most urgent task now is to find out who poisoned the herbs. Otherwise, if this person is still determined to do something evil, he might poison again in the future." The most urgent task now is to unite everyone. Only by unity can we work together.

Jiang Chuyue couldn't figure out who had done the poisoning. Every household in Wanshan Village planted medicinal herbs, and almost every household's herbs had been poisoned. The only few households that had not been poisoned had their medicinal herbs planted in relatively remote areas.

It is not located in Wanshan Village, but halfway up the front mountain.

But everyone's eyes were still suspicious of the families that were not poisoned. Fortunately, Shen Rong and Jiang Chuyue calmed everyone down. In addition, these families were very cooperative. After inspection, it was confirmed that there was no poison in their homes. They had not been to the town recently and had no chance to buy poison, but some people still felt resentful.

They wondered why they were the ones who suffered and why their family didn't.

Because of this matter, no clue could be found, and Jiang Chuyue's plan to go out and look for Xiao Yihao and others was forced to be put on hold.

But precisely because the timing of this incident was so coincidental, Jiang Chuyue couldn't help but suspect that this incident was aimed at her.

But who would go to such great lengths and create such a big commotion just to prevent Jiang Chuyue from leaving Wanshan Village? Was their purpose just to prevent Jiang Chuyue from reuniting with Xiao Yihao and the others?

More and more doubts were swirling in Jiang Chuyue's mind. She had thought about simply leaving all the village affairs to Shen Rong to deal with, but she couldn't stop people from coming to her house every day.

Some people are unwilling to give up and want to save the dead medicinal herbs.
