Traveling through mountains and rivers

The two spent some time digging out the whole Polygonum multiflorum. This Polygonum multiflorum is really not small. Ning Ze estimates that it weighs more than ten to twenty catties, which is much larger than the ones he has seen before.Ning Ze felt that it was very heavy even if he twisted it with one hand.

To take such a big thing back like this, it takes more than half of the village to walk, and no matter how few people are there, people will notice it.

Tao Qing looked at Ning Ze in embarrassment, "Ah Ze, how do we take it back? This Polygonum multiflorum is too big, what if others see it?"

Ning Ze also understood this truth. He looked around and saw that there was really no one that could hold this thing. He looked at the Polygonum multiflorum vines in front of him, there were quite a few, but these vines were useless to take back.

He thought for a while and said, "There must be other small ones down here. Let's dig a few more and hold them in our hands when we go back later. In addition, we'll go pick up a bundle of firewood and put the big one on the ground." Among the firewood, pick it back, so that no one will notice us."

Tao Qing thought for a while, and felt that the method Ning Ze said was feasible, so he immediately started digging up the small Polygonum multiflorum next to him.

The small ones are really only the size of sweet potatoes. There are quite a few of them in this area, but they haven't dug them all up. It will be useful to keep them in the future. I just hope that they won't be poached by others.

After digging Polygonum multiflorum, the two went to collect firewood again. They didn’t bring a firewood knife, so they could only pick up some dry firewood on the ground. Fortunately, this place was deep, so few people came in, and no one picked up the firewood on the ground. It didn't take much effort to pick up a big bundle and wrap the Polygonum multiflorum in it to cover it tightly. If you don't take apart the firewood, no one can see what's inside.

After the firewood was tied up, the two of them set out to go back. Tao Qing had to carry the firewood on his back. After all, Ning Ze still had injuries on his head and hands, so it was inconvenient.

As for the small Polygonum multiflorum, Ning Ze took it, and the two walked slowly, as if they came here to collect firewood.

When they arrived in the village, they saw a lot of people. Ning Ze didn't know them, but Tao Qing knew them. When Tao Qing called someone, Ning Ze followed him. Acknowledge your mistake.

Other people in the village looked at them carrying a bundle of firewood and said nothing. There was no firewood at home, and it was normal to go to the mountains to collect some firewood.

But by coincidence, they ran into members of the Ning family on the way.

Ning Laomo and Liu Hong, these are the two Ning family members that Tao Qing hates the most, and they are also the members of the Ning family who are the most mean to their family.

Mrs. Ning and Liu Hong may have just returned from the field and were about to go home. Ning Ze and the others were also going home. They lived in the opposite direction, so they bumped into each other by coincidence.

Liu Hong never saw Tao Qing well, and it was the same when he saw Tao Qing now. He sneered and said, "Hey, there is nowhere to go. Prepare to use these firewood to make a bed on the floor at night! That would be pitiful. You guys said about the separation, why, do you regret it now?"

Tao Qing and Ning Ze didn't even want to look at him, let alone talk to him. When they heard what he said, they didn't even stop and walked straight past them.

But Liu Hong wanted to make trouble for them, so he wouldn't just let them go.

Liu Hong reached out and grabbed the firewood on Tao Qing's back, "Oh, I'm going to leave just like that, that's not okay, I still want to know how you guys spend the past few days? I'm afraid you have no food and no place to live. Right. By the way, why didn’t I see those three little immortals? Could it be that they were boiled and eaten by you?”

Liu Hong's words became more and more ugly. If it was just about the two of them, Ning Ze and Tao Qing were going to bear it, but when it came to the child and said such ugly words, Ning Ze felt that he couldn't bear it no matter what. .

Although those three children were not his own, it was his decision to treat them as his own. How could he allow such bad things to be said about them.

Ning Ze threw away the Polygonum multiflorum in his hand, then grabbed Liu Hong's neck neatly, and even lifted him up with one hand. The people watching were terrified, and Liu Hong couldn't even say a word.

Ning Ze said coldly, "Do you really think that we dare not do anything to you? I want your life, just like now, as long as I push harder, I can break your neck!"

When Ning Ze said this, there was a ruthlessness in his tone, as if he really wanted to do something.

Old Ning who was standing next to him was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

Even Tao Qing was frightened, but he quickly came to his senses and went up to grab Ningze's hand, "Ah Ze, don't be impulsive, if you strangle him to death you will go to jail, you Think about me and the child, nothing will happen to you."

Of course Ning Ze wouldn't rush to strangle Liu Hong to death, he still understands that killing people pays for their lives, not to mention that he is now a commoner, any official can strangle him to death, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

Ning Ze didn't let go, but threw Liu Hong out, and landed heavily on the ground, coughing non-stop.

Ning Ze stepped forward and stepped on Liu Hong's hand, "Keep your mouth clean from now on, since this family is divided, it is not a family anymore, and we will not be polite to you, if you dare to say It's not the child's fault, then you just wait, it's definitely not like today!"

After Ning Ze finished speaking, Tao Qing pulled him, "Ah Ze, stop talking, let's go back, and just ignore them from now on."

Tao Qing was also worried that Liu Hong would hold grudges and go out and attack the child in the future.

Ning Ze also saw Tao Qing's worry. He didn't have enough ability to protect the children right now, so he didn't get too entangled. He picked up the fleece-flower root and threw it on the ground and went back with Tao Qing.
