Chapter 600: The Jade Lotus Disappears

far, "Sister Yan'er, is there anyone shouting about stealing things at your place""Come on, let's go take a look."Zong Pingkang heard the commotion and immediately ran away. Liu shi watched as this ma...Near Fangjia Village, Fang Yuan, with his two brothers carrying their knapsacks, quietly walked up the mountain.

One of them worried and asked, "Fangyuan, are we really going to go through this mountain to find that Zongyu"

"Last time we were pretty rude to him. Do you really think he'd take us in"

Fang Yuan casually chopped off the withered tree branches in front of him, saying without looking up.

"Don't worry, Village Chief Zhao said that the Zong family built a large manor. People who returned from the Zong family also said that the Zong family is short-handed. People with our abilities are definitely needed by Zong Yu."

He will leave us.

The other two looked at each other without speaking, mainly because they didn't know how to refute.

Where does Fang Yuan's confidence come from

If they were in my shoes, they definitely wouldn't be so generous to those who had once made things difficult for them.

"Even if the Zong family agrees to have us work for them, aren't you afraid that Zong Yu will take this opportunity to retaliate against you"

Fāng Yuán stopped in his tracks, crossed his arms, and held his cleaver on his shoulder. He turned to face the two people.

What is the purpose of our visit to the Zong family this time

Both of them were stunned, stammering, "Earn... earn a living."

Why would they risk so much to cross these mountains for the sake of Zongyu's protection, if not for winter provisions

"No!" Fang Yuan shouted, exasperated.

"Get stronger!"

As long as we become as strong as Zongyu, will we still be worried about food and money

"I'm going to learn from a master."

After finishing his words, he continued to turn and walk up the mountain. He took several steps without hearing anyone following him, so he turned back again.

"What are you two doing just standing there Are you going to walk or not"

"Fang Yuan, we wouldn't stop you if you wanted to become stronger," the two said hesitantly, "But, but we don't have your ambitions. We just want to find a job and make enough money to survive."

“This mountain is too dangerous, we really can’t go up.”

Fang Yuan quickly walked back a few steps.

"Aren't you two ambitious at all All you think about is eating. Once we get stronger, we can have anything we want."

The two people did not agree, and they didn't accept Fangyuan's words at all.

Seeing them, everyone around felt a chill and dared not go up the mountain. Instead, they just waved their hands impatiently.

"Fine, fine. You two cowards, I'll go to the clan by myself."

"Go home!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two men turned around without hesitation and ran back towards the village. Fang Yuan's eyes widened in anger.

"Well, well, you're really leaving What a lack of loyalty!"

"He doesn't even dare to face this danger, so he goes alone."

Fang Yuan cheered himself up, picked up the axe from the ground and continued walking into the mountains.

He swore that if he didn't make a name for himself, he would never return to the village.

As soon as Fang Jinshu and his group walked into the depths of the forest, they discovered many medicinal herbs.

Zong Yu surveyed his surroundings and returned to Fang Jinxiu's side.

"There's no sign of wild animals around here, it should be safe enough."

"You and Yulian are gathering medicine here, while Zongbo and I will go further away to see if we can find any traces of prey."

Fan Jinshu nodded, "Alright, you can rest assured and go. I will take good care of Yulian."

Zong Yu stood up and beckoned to Zong Bai. The two brothers soon disappeared into the tall weeds that towered over them.

Yulian ran back from a distance, her face full of surprise.

"Sister-in-law, there are so many mustard greens over there."

Fang Jinxiu hurriedly dug up a few herbs from her side and stood up.

"Alright, let's dig over there."

"Remember not to hurt the roots."

Jade Lily was going up the mountain to collect herbs for the first time. On one hand, she found it novel and fun, on the other hand, she also felt that she could finally help her elder brother and sister-in-law, she was excited.

Fang Jinxiu was quite surprised to see such a large patch of blue mallow. This is one of the most important medicinal herbs for making Ganfeng Pills.

I didn't expect to find so many right away.

She crouched down and began to gather herbs. Her method of gathering was both quick and meticulous, her movements clean and efficient, yet she showed no sign of panic whatsoever.

Zong Yulian didn't have that much patience. She would pick herbs for a while, then glance at the surroundings and see that the medicinal plants on the other side seemed to grow better, so she would run over there again.

I rarely stay in one place for long.

When Fang Jinxiu had finished collecting the herbs around her, she looked up and found that Yulian was gone.

Fang Jinshu's expression tightened, and she hurriedly stood up and shouted several times.

"Jade Lily"

"Yulian, don't scare me, where are you"

"Tell your sister-in-law I said hello!"

At this time, Zong Yu brought Zong Bai back as well. Zong Yu was worried about his daughter-in-law and sister's safety, so he didn't dare to go too far.

Just took a quick look around the area and came back.

"What's wrong" He saw Fang Jinxiu running towards him with a flustered expression.

"Oh no, Yulian is gone!"n't have Zong Yu close the door, not only did she not close it, but she also opened the window, allowing those outside to clearly see what she was eating.The oiled paper package was opened, and Zong Y...
