Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 254: Wild Ginseng in the Misty Forest

Uncle Dong smiled cheerfully and replied, "Ms. Gu, this place is called the Misty Forest. It is 15 kilometers away from Jiangzhou City!"

He pointed to the woods surrounded by large trees and said, "This is the Misty Forest."

Gu Yan paused holding the water bag, then calmly handed it to Gu Qingzhi and said, "Qingqing, drink some water to moisten your throat first."

Ji Wenzheng came over and asked excitedly, "So this is the Misty Forest?"

Gu Qingzhi took the water bag and took a sip, then asked with great interest, "Cousin Ji, do you know about this Misty Forest?"

Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, and she was obviously very interested in this mysterious place.

"I heard about it from a client when I was working in the city."

Ji Wenzhen recalled what the guest had said before and said slowly: "It is said that this Misty Forest is shrouded in fog all year round. Only when the sunlight shines into the forest at noon can we get a glimpse of the forest's appearance."

Gu Qingzhi opened her mouth in amazement and couldn't help but exclaimed: "How magical!"

Uncle Dong slowly put down the water bag and continued, "Not only that, it is said that the white mist in the depths of this forest is poisonous. If you get touched by it, you will either fall into a coma or die."

Gu Lin stood up in shock, looked around nervously, and said, "Are we in great danger now?"

He looked around vigilantly, as if the white mist would appear in the next moment.

"Haha..." Uncle Dong laughed:

"Mr. Gu, don't be afraid.

We should still be at the edge of the forest now. Half of the white fog here will not spread to this side, so it is relatively safe.

The poisonous fog is usually in the depths of the forest. If it is outside the forest, the impact of the white fog is not that great."

"Yes, cousin." Ji Wenzheng also said, "Didn't you see that several groups of people have been coming in and out here just now?"

Gu Lin's face suddenly turned red and he was a little at a loss.

Gu Qingzhi pulled at the corner of his clothes and said softly, "Brother, please sit down and drink some water first."

Gu Lin hurried down the steps his sister had given him and said, "Okay."

Gu Qingzhi smiled and said to Uncle Dong: "Uncle Dong, you seem to be quite familiar with this misty forest?"

Uncle Dong was a little pleased with himself, and said with a smile, "Not bad, I've been running back and forth between Pengze and Jiangzhou for decades!"

Gu Qingzhi struck while the iron was hot and asked in a gentle voice, "Then, Uncle Dong, can you tell us about this misty forest?"

To be honest, Gu Qingzhi was indeed curious about this foggy forest, especially the poisonous fog that could poison people.

She has been studying the Poison Sutra recently and has gained a certain understanding of poisons.

However, this poisonous fog is natural. How is it formed?

Uncle Dong naturally didn't know what Gu Qingzhi was thinking. Seeing that several young people were looking at him with great interest, he immediately became enthusiastic and began to talk about the Misty Forest incessantly:

"This misty forest actually has a long history. It is hard to tell when it was created.

Although there is poisonous fog in the depths of the forest, the outskirts are still relatively safe.

Villagers nearby often come to this forest to collect firewood, dig wild vegetables or medicinal herbs.

I heard that the resources in this forest are actually very abundant. As long as you are not greedy, it is still quite good.

It is said that when the harvest was poor in the past few years, some people took the risk and went deep into the misty forest.

There was even a lucky hunter who dug out a hundred-year-old ginseng.

But he also lost a hand, so he was lucky.

Most people who go in will lose everything, or even lose their lives.”

Uncle Dong sighed as he spoke, and the few of them had a certain understanding of the rarity and danger of the Misty Forest.

Gu Qingzhi had some ideas in her mind. There were still people here who could make a living by digging up medicinal herbs, which meant that the medicinal resources were quite abundant. She could come and explore when she had time.

But it definitely won’t work today.

Gu Qingzhi still had some small regrets.

She stood up and walked around, feeling that the air here was very fresh and refreshing. As she was walking back, she glanced to the side and was stunned. This was...

Gu Yan saw Gu Qingzhi waving at him and hurried over, "Qingqing, what's wrong?"

"Brother, look!"

Gu Yan looked down and his eyes gradually widened. They were actually two wild ginsengs.

By the way, why is wild ginseng so common?

This is still on the outskirts of the Misty Forest. How could there be such precious medicinal herbs?

But that was the fact, so Gu Yan quickly helped dig it out.

Gu Qingzhi took a look and found that one was about 40 years old and the other was probably around 80 or 90 years old.

The two men collected the herbs and returned to the team without making any noise.

After resting for a while, they continued on their way.

Jiangzhou City was right in front of them, and everyone was a little excited.

"Jiangzhou City is ahead!" Uncle Dong said, pointing to the magnificent city wall not far ahead.

It was the first time for Gu Lin and his sister to come to Jiangzhou. Upon hearing this, they involuntarily raised their hands, pulled up a corner of the curtain, and looked out quietly.

Gu Yan had lived in Jiangzhou for a few years. Seeing Gu Qingzhi so curious, he couldn't help but help pull the curtains up again.

Gu Qingzhi felt a little embarrassed, and then she remembered that the people around her had also stayed in Jiangzhou for several years.

However, she was afraid that mentioning this matter would remind her brother of the past and make him sad.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yan didn't care about these at all.

He introduced to Gu Qingzhi softly: "Jiangzhou has four city gates, namely the east, south, west and north gates. This is the east gate."

"Hey, Mr. Gu, it seems you are quite familiar with Jiangzhou!" Uncle Dong who was driving the coach said with a smile.

Gu Lin immediately replied: "My brother used to study in Jiangzhou."

Uncle Dong suddenly realized: "So that's it!"

The carriage slowly approached the city gate. Gu Qingzhi saw soldiers standing upright on the high city wall. Above the city gate were engraved two powerful words - Jiangzhou.

Gu Qingzhi looked at the words "Jiangzhou" on the tower and curved her eyebrows: "Jiangzhou, here we come..."

She had an inexplicable feeling that maybe she would stay here for a long time in the future...

After entering the city, Uncle Dong drove the carriage directly south.

The layout of Jiangzhou is also clearly divided. The south is the slums, the north is the territory of dignitaries, the east is where the rich live, and the west is the market and where vendors gather.

When they first arrived in Jiangzhou, Gu Yan and his friends unanimously chose the slums in the south.

Although the south is a slum, it is also a place where all kinds of people gather. If you want to say which place has the most informed information, it is here.

Moreover, the hotels here are relatively cheap, which is indeed a good choice for those who are visiting here for the first time.
