Chapter 362: Chapter 362: Let’s See How Lucky They Are
Seeing that they were almost at the fungus forest, Chiang Xiao noticed a wildflower by the roadside that had been trampled flat and stopped in her tracks.
She had been silent along the way, but very observant of the conditions on the roadside: so of the mountain grasses had been casually slashed with a knife, and there were wildflowers that had been trampled down as well.
anwhile, Ge Dejun and his group would intentionally avoid the wildflowers, just because Chiang Xiao once said that having wildflowers beside the road made climbing the mountain paths more interesting, as they could enjoy the flowers along the way.
So, they took it to heart and consciously left the roadside wildflowers untouched.
Now, this trampled-down flower was telling her that those people had already co this way.
Ahead, there was a slope with so rocks, but now, as she looked over, she even noticed a rock that had moved out of place.
“What’s wrong, Little?” Xu Linjiang and the others, seeing Chiang Xiao stop, also halted.
Chiang Xiao’s ears twitched as she heard several faint footsteps coming from the woods nearby.
If it really were Wan Niu and his group, why would they avoid this place? Why would they hide?
Chiang Xiao had never overestimated the character of those idlers.
“Sothing doesn’t feel quite right,” Chiang Xiao’s eyes flashed as she said, “I don’t think we need to rush. After all, rushing won’t change the outco. Let’s take a break first.”
“Take a break? Here?” Ge Dejun was startled.
“Otherwise, let’s go to the creek and look for partridge eggs. I feel like having so. You go ahead, and I’ll co over in a bit,” Chiang Xiao proposed.
Though Chiang Songhai seed about to object, Ge Dejun and Xu Linjiang had already nodded their heads and turned to head in a different direction. It was a place they had visited only a few tis before, without a well-trodden path. However, the ample partridge eggs they had found last ti had delighted them, and knowing that Chiang Xiao enjoyed them too, they assud that she was simply looking forward to having partridge eggs for lunch in the mountains, so naturally, they did not object.
As for Chiang Xiao saying she would co later, they guessed she probably needed to relieve herself.
Now they would not ask too many questions, so as not to embarrass the young girl.
“Grandpa, why don’t you go with Uncle too? You’ve been to this place so many tis; it’s safe, so don’t worry about .”
After coaxing them away, Chiang Xiao looked around and then sat down on a rock at her original spot, with her back towards the direction where Wan Niu and his n were hiding.
She carefully took out a drawing from her Space, depicting various foods and ats, and spread it out at her feet.
Because she was facing away from them, Wan Niu and the other two n didn’t see her actions.
“What’s that girl up to?”
“And why did Chiang Laoer and his group leave?” Old Li was also anxious. They had prepared a long vine on the slope to trip soone and had also dug several small pits, planning to trip up Chiang Songhai and his group.
Right on the slope, a fall would certainly send them rolling down.
At the bottom of the slope, they had set up sharp tree branches—if soone was unlucky and got tripped, they might just get impaled, which would be unfortunate indeed!
They lay in hiding on the side of the forest, ready to enjoy the spectacle, but they hadn’t expected Chiang Songhai and his group to turn around and leave, with Chiang Xiao staying behind by herself, seemingly dazed and not moving, making them unsure of what was going on.
“Let’s wait a bit longer,” Wan Niu said in a low voice.
Although Chiang Xiao clearly heard their conversation, she still vaguely caught the sound of the n’s voices.
A cold smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
Let’s see if their luck holds up!
It had been a while since she used these drawings to lure prey, and she didn’t know if there were any large animals nearby. However, she knew that with the growth of the Ginseng and Lingzhi, the Spiritual Energy in the drawn images could definitely travel farther.
