The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again

Cheng Zeli and others behind the tombstone were clinging stiffly to the stone wall, staring at the stone door, biting their lips tightly, holding their breath and standing still.

My heart was beating so violently that it seemed like it would jump out of my throat at any moment.

"General! General!"

Zhang Hu's excited and joyful shouts came from the bottom of the mountain. Zhang Shizhong paused as he groped under the altar, then turned around and ran down the mountain.

Huhhhhhhhh——

Hearing the footsteps fade away, Cheng Zeli and the others opened their mouths and exhaled deeply.

What a risk, I almost got discovered.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at each other silently.

He climbed onto the tricycle as if he was being chased by a ghost, transformed himself into the driving god of Akina Mountain, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and drove at lightning speed.

Zhang Shizhong, who was not far away, paused. With his strong internal strength, he could feel the movements within a hundred meters.

There seemed to be several rapid breathing sounds from the direction of the tomb just now, as well as strange beep...beep...beep...beep...beep——

He turned around and flew back to the grave. The area around the grave was quiet except for the sound of branches swaying in the wind. He walked around the grave, still puzzled.

At this moment, there was a sudden movement in the grass next to him.

"Who is it, come out!"

Zhang Shizhong pointed his sword towards the bushes.

“Hum…hum…hum…hum…”

Accompanied by a grunting sound, two big wild boars and a group of small wild boars appeared in front of them. When the wild boars saw the humans, they had no intention of running away. Instead, they waved their fangs viciously and roared as they launched a fierce attack on Zhang Shizhong. The wild boars' eyes were filled with viciousness and madness, which made people shudder.

Zhang Shizhong breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a wild boar.

A sword shadow flashed by, and the battle between strong men could be decided by just one move.

"Ow!"

After the scream, the huge wild boar fell in a pool of blood with its eyes open.

The sow saw that the situation was not good and shook her body with fear. When she saw the human looking at her with fierce eyes, she immediately turned around and ran away, even forgetting about the little wild boar.

A dozen wild boars that had just turned one month old looked confusedly at their dead father, then looked in the direction their cruel mother had left. Their silly and cute looks made people reluctant to kill them.

Finally, they belatedly realized a hint of danger and stumbled in the direction the sow had left.

When the soldiers waiting at the foot of the mountain saw the general carrying a fat wild boar back, they immediately cheered and excitedly went forward to help.

"Take the wild boar back and process it, and tell the kitchen that everyone will have meat porridge today."

"Yes, General!"

Zhang Shizhong looked at the piles of pills with his eyes flickering, recalling the noises on the mountain just now. It didn't sound like the sound of a wild boar.

At this time Zhang Hu came over.

"General, this medicine should have been sent by Medicine King Valley. I didn't expect them to send the medicine overnight. If I had known, I would have sent someone to guard it here."

"If they wanted you to know, they wouldn't have sent it overnight.

Well, since they don’t want to reveal their identities, let’s end the matter here, but let the people know that it was Yaowang Valley that saved them.”

"Then this medicine......"

"Find a few vehicles and send people to deliver the pills to the disaster area with me, and you too."

"Yes!"

Cheng Zeli and others returned to the valley in panic, collapsed on the rocky beach, and took a long time to recover.

"What's going on? Could it be that someone is following us?"

Zhang and others were washing clothes by the pond. Seeing that they looked frightened, they quickly dropped their work and surrounded them with concern.

"No, no one followed us. We were almost discovered."

"Almost. If it was a few moments later, he would have been caught."

"Who do you think that person is? He looks to be in his 50s or 60s, but I didn't expect him to run faster than a horse. This is the first time I've seen someone so amazing."

"You ask me, who should I ask? They are just soldiers anyway."

Several people sat up from the ground and started discussing the person who had just happened.

"Alright, alright, at least we weren't discovered. Luckily the pills were delivered. You guys go back and have a rest. The rest of you who have nothing to do, come with me to build a brick kiln and try to make bricks as soon as possible.

The rice seedlings have begun to produce, and we will be busy in a month or so. The tea seeds on the mountain can be picked in another half month.

On the hillside, the men were busy wielding pickaxes to dig holes, while the women were carrying sickles and working hard to cut the vines all over the ground.

Li held Cheng Xingwan in her arms and gave instructions. She looked at the vines with clusters of purple flowers with a sense of familiarity. She thought for a long time but couldn't remember where she had seen them.

It was not until the men dug down along the vine and unearthed the huge roots that they remembered the record of this plant in the book.

Pueraria root

Pueraria root can be made into starch and has high nutritional value. It can not only nourish and strengthen the body, but also beautify and delay aging. It is a very suitable nourishing product for women.

The villagers didn't know its function and planned to take it back to use as firewood.

"Wait, this is a good thing. It would be a pity to use it as firewood. I will teach you how to make it into a delicacy."

"This thing is hard, just like wood, and not as crispy as yam. It looks like it will get stuck in your teeth. How can you eat it?"

“Wash the kudzu root with water, soak it in water for 30 minutes, and then rinse it thoroughly with water. This step can remove the mud and impurities on the surface of the kudzu root.

Cut the washed kudzu root into small pieces and mash it.

Add water to the crushed Pueraria root, take a bamboo comb and place it on a large wooden barrel, scoop the Pueraria root into the gauze, rub and rinse it repeatedly several times.

Let the kudzu root water settle overnight. Slowly scoop out the water from the barrel the next day, and you will see a thick layer of white starch at the bottom of the barrel.

Put the starch in the sun to dry out the moisture.

Add appropriate amount of warm water to dissolve the kudzu root powder, then pour in boiling water, stirring while pouring until it becomes viscous and transparent. Season with sugar or honey, it has the effects of clearing away heat and dampness, moistening the lungs and relieving cough, beautifying the skin, and relieving heat and restlessness.

Everyone loves beauty. When the women in the village heard that it could beautify their skin, their eyes lit up instantly and they looked at Pueraria lobata as if it were a rare treasure.

"This thing can be seen everywhere. I didn't expect it to be a treasure. In the past, we just regarded it as a weed. We hated it the most. No matter how hard we tried to remove it, it would never get rid of it. It kept crawling into the fields."

Although they knew it was a good thing, no one rushed to dig it up. They still knew what was important.

The most important thing right now is to quickly burn bricks. The building of the house has been delayed for a long time. If it is delayed any further, we will freeze to death in the cave this winter.

Zhang Shizhong, who lived at the foot of the mountain, didn't even have time to eat the wild boar meat, and hurriedly took 300 soldiers from Cangwu Town to another county to deliver medicine.

The first stop was Wuling County, next to Pingyang County. The situation in Wuling County was very bad, and most of the people did not even survive the flood.

Unexpected things happen in life. The few remaining people who came back to build their hometown encountered plague and more than half of them died.

There are less than 10,000 people alive in the entire county now. The county magistrate Shi Zhenxiang fled before the flood and never came back. No one knows where he hid and didn't want to come back, or whether he died in the flood.

When Zhang Shizhong arrived, the soldiers stationed in Wuling County were numbly burning corpses.
