Before the house was raided, the maidservant of the Prime Minister's residence absconded with t

Qingge quickly stopped her: "Miss, don't go, it's too dangerous."

just in case……"

Tao'er shook her head: "No, it wouldn't hurt me if it wanted to. Besides, I just saved its wife and child!"

Qingge, don't worry, I know what I'm doing.

I'll go check it out and be right back.

"Big brother, second brother, you guard these prey and don't let other wild animals snatch them away."

If you're worried, I'll take Qingge with me.

Tao'er handed the medicine basket to her elder brother.

Then the white tiger lay down in front of her again, and Tao'er realized that the white tiger wanted her to ride on its back.

She had ridden mules and horses, but she had never ridden a tiger before, and to be honest, she was still a little scared.

After hesitating for a moment, Tao'er still got on.

"Qingge, come up!"

Qingge was both excited and a little scared, but since the girl dared to ride, why shouldn't she?

Don't back down!

"Big brother, I'm so envious of little sister and Qingge!"

"What are you envious of?"

Liu Tiezhu was puzzled.

"You can ride a white tiger!"

That's a ferocious beast, the king of the mountains.

Don't you want to ride the white tiger?

Liu Tiezhu nodded in agreement, "I want to too..."

The white tiger carried the two of them quickly forward, and the further they went, the more difficult the road became.

Tao'er wondered where the big white tiger was going.

This time, the white tiger led them to a shady cliff. The cliff face was damp and covered with thick moss.

The white tiger scratched at a patch of exceptionally soft humus with its front paws, then stepped aside and looked at Tao'er with its amber eyes, as if presenting a treasure.

Tao'er squatted down and, after brushing aside just a layer of decaying leaves, saw the scene that made her stop breathing.

A wild ginseng stands quietly in the soil, its rhizome as thick as a child's arm, its body plump and lustrous, its surface covered with tightly packed horizontal lines, each line deeply etched with the marks of countless years.

She gently brushed away the soil from the roots, and the ginseng roots stretched out, longer than her forearm, with a faint golden hue.

This ginseng is at least five or six hundred years old.

Qingge gasped: "Has it become a spirit?"

You even know to find ginseng to repay your kindness?

Does it know that ginseng is valuable?

Tao'er looked up at the white tiger, and the big cat was tilting its head and looking at her with a smug expression.

"Thank you, White Tiger!"

She smiled at the white tiger; this life-saving grace had not been in vain!

She dug the ginseng very gently, as if afraid of damaging even a single ginseng root.

After taking out the ginseng completely, she untied the water pouch from her waist, squatted down in front of the white tiger, and fed it all the remaining spiritual spring water: "I can't take your things for nothing, this is a thank you gift."

After drinking the water, Baihu rubbed his forehead against her palm, then turned and walked to the edge of the cliff, lying down like a snow-white statue.

"White Tiger, I've finished digging. Take Qingge and me back."

The white tiger crouched down and lay on the ground, behaving very obediently.

Half an hour later, they returned safely to their elder brother and the others.

"White Tiger, you should go back now!"

Take good care of your wife and your baby!

We need to go down the mountain now!

I'll give you water next time I come.

Tao'er said to Baihu.

The white tiger let out a whimpering sound, then squatted there, watching them leave.

Tao'er and Qingge walked away and looked back. It was still there. They kept looking until they could no longer see it in the depths of the forest. Then they heard a long tiger roar coming from behind them, as if saying goodbye.

On the way down the mountain, Liu Tiechui carried a wild boar, Liu Tiezhu dragged a sika deer, Qingge carried a wild goat, and Tao'er's basket was full of medicinal herbs and mushrooms picked from the mountain. Their steps were as light as if they were walking on clouds.

As for the ginseng, she had already put it in her spatial storage, afraid that she might accidentally damage it while slipping on the road.

"Little sister, our trip to the mountains today was worth it!"

It contains not only ginseng, but also matsutake mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms.

Was the ginseng we dug up today more expensive than the lingzhi we found last time?

Liu Tiezhu was very excited; he had learned a lot from his sister.

"Hmm, the one we dug up is probably worth about the same as the Ganoderma lucidum we found last time!"

But the other one costs more than that.

Tao'er said with a cheerful smile.

She was very satisfied today.

"Little sister, what do you mean?"

"You dug up two ginseng plants?"

Liu Tiezhu's eyes widened in surprise.

Is this girl possessed by some kind of deity?

Others might not even find one in their entire lives, but she managed to find two.

"Yes, I dug up two plants, but I forgot to tell you earlier."

"It was Baihu who led us to dig it!"

Tao'er spoke calmly.

"My God, little sister, what incredible luck you've had!"

That white tiger treats you like its own mother!

They actually took you to dig for ginseng!

Why didn't it take me with it!

Liu Tiechui looked up at the sky and sighed, feeling both envious and jealous!

"You, second brother, you've gone hunting so many times, and at most you've only managed to catch a wild boar. When will you ever have that kind of luck!"

However, if you know how to help a tigress give birth, the white tiger might take you to dig for ginseng.

Hahaha……"

Liu Tiezhu joked.

"Brother, I'm just a roughneck who only knows how to work. How would I know how to deliver a baby?"

Besides, delivering a baby for a tigress is worse than killing me.

And look at the ginseng, how carefully the little sister dug it up.

Such delicate work is not something I can do.

Liu Tiechui shook his head in frustration.

"Hahaha………"

Everyone burst into laughter again.

"Brother Hammer, you don't need to be so discouraged. You can hunt, you know kung fu, you're strong, and you can do a lot of work. You're already better than many people."

"Even if you couldn't deliver a tigress's baby, neither could we, and we wouldn't dare!"

Qingge couldn't bear to see Liu Tiechui so devastated.

"Qingge, don't worry about my second brother, he's just grumbling!"

Actually, he's quite happy today!

When the villagers saw that he had hunted another sika deer, they couldn't help but envy him.

Tao'er said with a smile.

"Exactly, those sika deer and blue sheep are enough to make this kid gloat!"

Liu Tiezhu echoed this sentiment.

"hey-hey!

My older brother really understands me!

Qingge, I was just whining and venting a little.

My little sister is so lucky; I, as her brother, can just share in her good fortune.

Liu Tiechui revealed a simple and honest smile.

Qingge was just comforting him; does that mean she likes him too?

"Big brother, second brother, Qingge, after we go down the mountain, don't tell the villagers that we encountered the white tiger, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Not to mention the fact that I helped deliver the baby for the white tiger.

Then the prey will say that the three of you caught it together.

Tao'er instructed.

She was afraid that the villagers would think of her as a monster.

The three nodded in succession.

When they finally arrived at the village, unsurprisingly, the villagers saw their baskets full of food and the game they were carrying and surrounded them with questions, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.

When asked how they managed to hunt so many wild animals, they replied...

Tao'er told them directly that they had gone deep into the mountains.

Everyone clicked their tongues in disapproval, saying it was dangerous inside, and some even kindly advised them not to go, saying it was too dangerous.

Some people even asked them if they had found any Ganoderma lucidum this time.

The second brother, Liu Tiechui, casually told them that they hadn't found any Ganoderma lucidum, but they had found ginseng.

Everyone was surprised, but even more so, they were envious.

Tao'er immediately interrupted everyone, saying that this was something that could only be encountered by chance, and was purely a matter of good luck.

He also said that today, besides keeping some wild boar meat for himself, he would sell the rest to the villagers.

They said pork in town costs 25 coins a pound, but their family sells it for 20 coins a pound.

Everyone was happy this time and said they would come over later to help slaughter the pig.

The news that their family had found ginseng spread throughout the entire village.
