He really didn't know what this woman wanted to do. He only knew how to cheat all day because of his grandpa's bracelet. Otherwise, how could this woman have a place at home to hook up with other men while carrying her deceased husband? She didn't have the right to be at home.

The ruckus woke the sleeping Madam Chiang up. After Chu Pann'er finished her explanation, the Madam Chiang only scolded the Madam Liu symbolically, but no one asked where the wild game came from.

Chu Pann'er was too lazy to explain.

Just like this, a day had passed. Everyone returned home with a sore back, and did not bother about the Madam Liu that was brimming with energy.

Before dawn the next day, Chu Pann'er woke up very early. Because it had rained white last night, she wanted to go up the mountain and see if there were any suitable fungi or not.

Xing Luan's sleep was shallow, so when she saw the light in Chu Pann'er's room, she decided to take a look.

Looking at Chu Pann'er who was carrying his backpack, Xing Luan rubbed her eyes, and planned to step forward to receive it: "Miss Chu, where are you going?"

She looked up at the sky. She could see the stars now.

"Xing Luan, why are you awake so early?"

Chu Pann'er originally wanted to go out quietly, but she did not expect Xing Luan to come out.

She now planned to take advantage of the heavy dew to collect some fungi. She could eat them when the time came, but she could also sell them at the same time.

"I just woke up a while ago and saw the lights in your room light up. I was wondering what business you had with me, so I decided to come and take a look."

So that's how it is, Chu Pann'er smiled gently and told Xing Luan of her plans.

"What?" You want to go up the mountain at this hour? "

Xing Luan revealed a look of surprise, it was not even dawn yet, what could she do about going up the mountain?

She didn't quite agree.

"Miss Chu, it just rained yesterday, so it's hard to walk on this slippery road. Why don't you go after daybreak?"

She knew that Chu Pann'er was extremely diligent, but she did not agree to take such a risk.

"Besides, I'm not here. Just tell me what you want me to do."

Chu Pann'er shook her head, she wanted to take advantage of the fact that it was still dark, and when there was no one else on the road, she wanted to go there. That kind of fungus could only be found yesterday in the weather, if someone else encountered it, she would have to wait for the next time.

"No need, it's better to get the fungus back earlier. After that, we might even be able to buy it for a big price."

Carrying her backpack, Chu Pann'er pretended to leave the room. Seeing that she could not persuade the lady in front of him, Xing Luan stomped her feet, naturally worrying that something might happen to Chu Pann'er. After donning a set of clothes, she followed closely behind Chu Pann'er.

"Miss Chu, wait for me. I will go with you."

Chu Pann'er did not stop them and waited. After a while, the two of them went up the mountain.

After the rain, the forest was filled with a humid smell, and dewy leaves could be seen everywhere. It looked extremely cool, but the mud road beneath their feet was extremely hard to walk on, Chu Pann'er and Xing Luan had to support each other to walk through it.

Along the way, just as Chu Pann'er had thought, there were many spawning bacteria, all of them growing extremely well.

Seeing these fungi, Chu Pann'er put them all into her back pocket without any hesitation. Not long later, it was almost halfway there.

Just then, the sky saw the white of fish, Chu Pann'er wiped the sweat off her forehead.

"It's about time. Let's go and see if we can fill our backpacks."

Standing in the forest, Chu Pann'er pointed at the road ahead.

Following Chu Pann'er's line of sight, the place in front of them was green, no one knew how many more bacteria there were.

"Okay, Miss Chu, we will pick them in a full pot. However, this kind of thing is not easy to store, when the time comes …"

"Dong Yizhen, let's see where you can run to!"

A sonic boom could be heard, followed by an ice-cold voice.

In the next moment, Chu Pann'er immediately held down Xing Luan's head, and the two of them squatted in the middle of the grass.

Fortunately the grass was deep enough and had barely covered their bodies, however, it did not affect Chu Pann'er's line of sight.

In an open area not too far away from them, a few black-clothed men were wielding long swords as they pointed towards a gray-clothed man. Due to a long period of fighting, the gray-clothed man was extremely weak.

And that grey robed man, was precisely Dong Yizhen.

Seeing that, Chu Pann'er was shocked. On the other side, they were facing off against each other.

Dong Yizhen's stern face did not have the slightest trace of an emotion as he indifferently spoke while wielding the sword he had snatched from the other men in black: "I wonder how I offended you, to actually chase me down!"

He could tell that this group of black-clothed people were the same as the last time they came to kill him. He didn't understand why these people would want to kill him.

The leading man in black sneered, he pointed his sword straight at Dong Yizhen: "Dong Yizhen, stop playing dumb in front of me. Last time you escaped by luck, this time, I will wait for you to die here!"

With that, the black-clothed man jumped up from the ground and rushed towards Dong Yizhen. Dong Yizhen's gaze turned cold as he brandished his sword to block the black-clothed man's attack.

In one move, the two were evenly matched, but Chu Pann'er could tell that Dong Yizhen was already exhausted. Moreover, she probably still had that wound from last time, if not, how could the black-clothed man be his opponent?

Seeing that the black clothed man was closing in, Chu Pann'er's heart became tighter and tighter. That black clothed man was extremely ruthless in his moves, if Dong Yizhen was not careful, he would be hurt by the black clothed man.

She had to think of a way to help Dong Yizhen. After all, Dong Yizhen had saved her a few times.

Her eyes lit up as a thought flashed through her mind. She tilted her head and said to Xing Luan in a small voice: "Xing Luan, wait for me here. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to reveal yourself.

"What?" Xing Luan was a little taken aback, she did not understand Chu Pann'er's arrangements.

"It's nothing, just remember what I said!" Chu Pann'er did not explain too much because with just a single sentence, Dong Yizhen was in even more danger.
