Lang Ya quickly sensed that this place might indeed have very old medicinal herbs, as the environment was perfect for their growth...
Moreover, the most important thing was that the nearby farmers were all ignorant...
So even if there were treasures like ginseng here, those poor saps wouldn’t have a clue!
Assured of this, he took another deep breath of the rich herbal fragrance, his eyes shining even brighter...
"Today must be my lucky day. Once I get that hundred-year ginseng, my strength will fully recover. Then, I’ll make sure Hu Xiaobei pays the price! Definitely!"
As he harbored these venomous thoughts, Lang Ya quickly dashed towards the back mountain...
Before, even though he had been defeated by Hu Xiaobei, he hadn’t accepted it.
In Lang Ya’s view, his failure was due to his unfamiliarity with Hu Xiaobei...
If he had understood Hu Xiaobei, there was no way he could have lost, so Lang Ya plotted to regain his reputation as soon as he recovered...
...
"Hu Xiaobei, you just wait, just wait, even if I become a ghost, I won’t let you go!"
Outside the village, Feng Lin, who had been unceremoniously dumped into a fetid ditch by the youths of Xiaohe Village, growled with bitterness.
At that moment, he wished he could tear Hu Xiaobei limb from limb...
If there had been any chance of reconciliation between Feng Lin and Hu Xiaobei before...
Now there wasn’t a single chance left...
"Look, that guy is so pitiful!"
"Yeah, really!"
As he begrudgingly climbed out from the ditch, he heard someone speak.
The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and Feng Lin lowered his head and quickly left...
...
In Xiaohe Village, after all the excited tourists had dispersed, Hu Xiaobei looked at Han Xueyao with concern and asked, "Auntie, are you alright?"
"I’m fine!"
Han Xueyao shook her head in response to Hu Xiaobei’s query...
To be honest, at this moment, she felt a hint of aftershock...
She knew that if it hadn’t been for Hu Xiaobei, she would have been in real danger...
Once he was sure Han Xueyao was indeed unharmed, Hu Xiaobei sighed with relief. Just then, he heard Han Jiayuan speak excitedly.
"Brother Xiaobei, if I had known how powerful you were, Mom and I wouldn’t have been so worried just now!"
"What are you talking about! I wasn’t worried at all! I knew someone like you, Brother Xiaobei, a big baddie, couldn’t be easily defeated."
Hearing Han Xueyao’s words, Hu Xiaobei chuckled...
Soon, Hu Xiaobei looked at Han Xueyao and said softly, "Auntie really understands me the best!"
"Of course I do!"
With that, Han Xueyao gave Hu Xiaobei a look and then spoke a few more words with him before quickly leaving with Han Jiayuan...
After they had left, Hu Xiaobei turned to Fei Yang!
That was when he noticed Fei Yang gazing at him with sheer admiration...
"What’s up? Is there something on my face?"
"No, Master Xiaobei, I just think you are really awesome!"
"Pretty good, I guess!"
He laughed and waved his hand, then Hu Xiaobei spoke a few more words with Fei Yang.
Soon after, Hu Xiaobei and Fei Yang parted ways and headed straight for the orchard behind the village...
...
Whilst Hu Xiaobei was making his way to the back mountain, Lang Ya arrived at the rear of Xiaohe Village, his face brimming with excitement!
His pace quickened by the moment...
For the closer he drew to this location, the stronger the rich scent of the herbs became...
"There’s definitely a treasure here! This time, I’ve really struck it rich!"
Lang Ya was truly ecstatic...
Just by smelling this herbal fragrance, he felt a lot better...
"It should be right ahead, just up ahead."
Muttering to himself with feverish zeal, he swiftly parted the dense underbrush and then saw a small deep pool not far in front of him...
The pool water was very clear...
Of course, his gaze didn’t linger long on the water.
For that herbal scent was coming from the edge of the pool!
Upon closer inspection, he was slightly startled...
