Chapter 56 – Building A New House (4)
Why was she thinking about that person again? Gu Ye frowned her little nose a little bit and expelled Icy Face’s cold image from her mind before continuing onto her journey.
The hidden guard followed the diva from afar and felt his stomaChapter tightened seeing the black bear about twice her height not too far from her; and a giant snake with diater thicker than his arm swam under her feet; and a pack of starving wolves ran away from her with their tails behind their hind legs....
The more he saw the more odd he felt – why would all these normally vicious beast all ran away like they have ran into their natural predator whenever the diva got close to them. If it was his master, that then would still make sense to him; his master exuded this viciousness that even the beasts innately knew to stay away from him as far away as possible. But what made the ferocious beasts afraid of this scrawny little girl?
“Ginseng! Real wild ginseng!!” The little human from afar let out a loud, happy cry before she squatting down and happily dug away in the bushes.
“Looks good. At least several dozens of years. Should worth so good money!” Only money and pretty n could make Gu Ye so happy. She cracked out her mouth and smiled like it was a gold bar that she had just picked up.
The further she walked the more previous herbs she found: rhubard, gastrodia, five-flavor berry, Siberian ginseng, gentian.... Gu Ye’s little back basket was quickly getting filled. These were all money on the ground! Gu Ye was smiling so muChapter that her eyes were now a straight line. Skipping on her way and humming her tuneless songs, she went on collecting her herbs happily.

“Eh? That piece of leave looks so familiar, it looked like wild Chinese yam.” Gu Ye imdiately thought of Chinese yam and spareribs soup, Chinese yam and black fungus (wood ear) stir fry, Chinese yam and carp soup.... All these yummy dishes were making her drool.

She ran toward it as fast as she could and imdiately started digging away with her little hoe. These wild Chinese yam mostly grew inside the crack of soft stones; plus their shapes were irregular, so it was no easy task to dig them out. But that wasn’t a deterrent for Gu Ye, all she needed was a bottle of strengthening potion. There was quite so Chinese yam in this field and it took her a few hours to dug them all up. By this ti, her little back basket was completely full.
Looking at the sky, it was starting to get late. As muChapter as she didn’t want to, she needed to start heading ho. Otherwise, her “housekeeper” of a brother would be all nagging again. Aye, sotis family could be suChapter a sweet burden.
On her way back, she ran into a Siberian roe deer. Her strengthening potion hadn’t all worn off yet. With a casual throw of her hoe, the deer was knocked out cold. With her back basket complete full and a 100 sothing jin (approximately 50 kg / 110 lbs) ga, she was still walking in her regular pace.
The hidden guard behind her rolled his eyes when he witnessed this. ThIs diva must be a naturally strong woman, even if she had ran into any vicious beast that didn’t know better, she wouldn’t have needed his help. Aye! Master, you sent to stay here, but she didn’t need at all. As one of the four prestigious hidden guards of the Hall of Hidden Souls, all he did was follow a girl around day in and day out. Wasn’t that kind of a waste of his ability?
“i i! Where have you been? I have been looking for you for the longest ti!!” Gu Ye could hear Gu Ming’s voice when she approached their new house. She stopped in her way and prepared herself for his nagging.
