The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2504

The canyon appeared to be a river in the past, as both events were even and lush with algae and covered with shell fossils. It was certainly an interesting place.

"What secrets do you think are hidden here?" Jouri asked.

Frank shook his head and turned to look into the distance.

Jouri followed his gaze to see a man in his forties carrying a basket behind his back while holding scythes for harvesting herbs.

As he appeared local, Jouri asked, "Excuse me, are there any interesting places around here?"

She naturally did not want to search the entire area as it would be taxing and asked for directions since someone was around.

However, the middle-aged man was at once wary. "What do you want?"

"Nothing," Jouri quickly said. "We're just here on a trip!"

The middle-aged man growled, "That's allowed, but don't you dare take anything from here! The village retains rights to everything around here, and no one else gets to touch it!"

Jouri remained calm but was still a little exasperated. "Don't worry, we won't touch your herbs. You could follow us if you doubt me."

"That's better!"

The middle-aged man then thought about it. "There's actually not much, aside from the herbs or some university student coming from the city to study soil composition. They never find anything special though—the elders said it's because of our ancestor's blessing!"

Jouri smiled and nodded, as that really was the case from a certain point of view.

Such a blessed land was already rare, and scientifically speaking, there must also be something that enhanced the medicinal value of the herbs. That would certainly explain the peculiarity!

"Are you going to harvest herbs? Lead the way—we'd like to go with you!" Jouri then said.

They had to start searching anyway, but having a local as guide was definitely twice more effective.
