Chapter 115 Tell me to help you find it!
Along the way, the two picked some wild vegetables.
Yang Fenglan explained to Xu Yingying, "This is a prickly pear. Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance. It's good when blanched and served cold, or even fried with eggs."
"Take these water ferns and ask your mother to make them into pickles; that way, we can eat them for a longer period of time."
Xu Yingying nodded in agreement, "Okay, okay, thanks to you, I didn't even know what I could eat."
“You saved my son, and we hit it off immediately, so it’s only natural that we should help each other out.”
As they walked and chatted, they unknowingly crossed the three mountains that Long Aotian had mentioned.
Yang Fenglan looked into the deep mountains and said, "I've never been there before, so I dare not go in again. Let's look around here and find some wild vegetables so you can have something to say when we get home."
"Okay, shall we split up and go look?" Xu Yingying asked.
"Okay, but don't go too far."
Yang Fenglan took the same route today as yesterday, and Long Aotian couldn't stray too far from her, so the agarwood it mentioned wouldn't be far away either.
After a while, Xu Yingying's voice was heard, "Fenglan, there are peach trees here! Can we pick wild peaches to sell?"
"A peach tree? Let me take a look." Yang Fenglan strode towards her.
Sure enough, I saw a peach tree laden with fruit.
There were no other peach trees around, so the reference point that Long Aotian mentioned must be this one.
The peaches weren't very ripe yet. Yang Fenglan picked one, took one bite, and immediately spat it out.
"Pah, it's sour and unpalatable. Unripe ones won't sell. We'd better just find some wild vegetables to stock up on."
Xu Yingying stuck out her tongue. "Alright, but we can remember this spot and come back to pick them when they're ripe."
"Okay." Yang Fenglan nodded, put down her basket, and took out a sickle. "I'll clean up the edges of the peach tree so it'll be easier to find it next time."
"Okay, then I'll wander around the neighborhood and see if there are any wild vegetables or fruits left."
The two of them each performed their duties without disturbing each other.
Long Aotian emerged from the bracelet. [The treasure-hunting system is right here! Why didn't you ask me to help you find your stuff? Hurry up and ask me to help you find it!]
Yang Fenglan glanced at it disdainfully, "Don't I know your pathetic abilities?"
"Hey! You look down on me!" Long Aotian landed in Yang Fenglan's basket, pointed in another direction, and said, "There's some fracturing root over there; your son's leg injury will need it."
"Medicinal herbs require proper compatibility; it's no use for me to just dig up a piece of Dipsacus asper and take it home."
"Well... the price of 'continuous cuttings' is high, you can make money by digging up more." Long Aotian's tone gradually became a little anxious.
Yang Fenglan thought to herself: With agarwood available, who would bother digging for that stuff?
Long Aotian made up several more excuses to try and get rid of them, even saying that wild boars were coming.
Yang Fenglan calmly waved her hand, "Don't worry, your master already has experience dealing with wild boars. As long as you climb a tree, you'll be safe."
What about the bear? Bears can climb trees.
"It would be even better if we had a bear. If it fights a wild boar, at least one of them will die, and we'll be the ones who benefit."
As she spoke, Yang Fenglan had already cleared away the weeds and shrubs around the peach tree.
Before Xu Yingying could make a sound, he called out, "Yingying, how many wild vegetables have you picked?"
"I don't know much, and I don't know which ones are wild vegetables. Can you help me?"
"Oh, okay." Yang Fenglan frowned, slung her basket over her shoulder, and went to find Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying leaned against a big tree, holding a few tender green twigs in her hand, looking completely bewildered.
She still didn't know what the agarwood her best friend was talking about looked like on the surface.
Yang Fenglan was somewhat exasperated. She had described it very clearly, but this young lady still didn't know anything. What would happen if she were to transmigrate here alone?
"Hey!" Yang Fenglan suddenly pulled Xu Yingying away and looked at the tree she was leaning against. "Yingying, look, is this a white sandalwood tree?"
"Huh?" Xu Yingying didn't recognize it at all. Hearing her best friend say that, she pretended to know a lot and looked at it closely. "It looks... a bit like it?"
