Chapter 506
There are obviously so many ginseng on a hillside, but they are not even taller. This is not normal if you think about it! If there are no seeds of ginseng that are taller, where did these ginseng in front of you come from? Right?
Ming Chao probably understood what Shu said, and immediately looked at her with a sudden enlightenment and asked, "Doctor Su, what do you mean is someone secretly came to pick ginseng?"
"Maybe!" Shu thought for a while and said to Ming Chao, "Maybe there are other reasons! For example, if you were eaten by wild animals, or if it was some other reasons that we don't know very well?"
"What else can there be a reason?" Ming Chao said to Shu with a look of affirmation, "This must be someone who came to secretly pick ginseng and has not reported it to the village yet! No, after returning to the village, we must report to the patriarch where we are!"
"Let's see the situation first!" Shu didn't want to make a conclusion now, so he could only say to Mingchao as comfortedly, and followed the man in the village while carefully watching the situation around him. However, they walked a lot of places along the way, but they found that the situation seemed to be the same.
Smaller ginseng can be seen everywhere, but not even a ginseng that can be picked for more than five or six years.
"It's very strange!" Shu frowned tightly, looking at a pretty good ginseng in front of him, and couldn't help but mutter: "Why are there all this ginseng in this piece??"
"Someone must have poached all the ginsengs of the ages!" Ming Chao believed in this reason at this moment and said to Shu with anger: "Mr. Su, let's go directly to the mountain! After picking the ginseng you want, we will go back to the village immediately! I want to tell the patriarch about this matter and ask the patriarch to arrange people to check it out carefully! How could such a bad person appear in our village?"
Shu shook her head, stood up and said to Mingchao, "Let's go, let's go for a while. If you still can't find anything, go to the mountain to take a look!"
Ming nodded with a bulging face and followed Shu honestly.
After walking for about half an hour, Shu and the others finally got nothing and could only walk up the mountain. Finally, after climbing a long distance, they saw a ginseng that had been growing for about ten years.
Shu was slightly happy, so he quickly went up and took a closer look, then asked Mingchao to give her a bamboo knife, knelt on the ground, and began to carefully dig up ginseng.
Ming Chao originally wanted to help, but Shu said it was not necessary, so she could only stand beside Shu and watch, and arranged for the rest of the people to go nearby to see if she could help Shu find more ginseng.
The forest was quiet and there was almost no sound.
Shu carefully dug out the ginseng from the soil, looked carefully, and confirmed that all the roots of the ginseng were intact, then she finally laughed relaxedly. When she asked Mingchao where to come, she carefully wrapped the ginseng, then stood up, looked left and right, and asked Mingchao with some confusion: "Why are you the only one here? Where are the others? Have you all gone back?"
"No! I asked them to go nearby and look for ginseng for Master Su!" Ming Chao said to Shu with a smile, then looked at the ginseng in her hand and asked, "My dear Master Su, do I need this ginseng to be taken?"
"No, no! I'll just take it!" Shu shook his head and said to Mingchao: "Let's go, let's meet them. If they find ginseng, they will take them away together. If they don't find it, we will go back!"
"Go back?" Ming Chao was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shu with confusion: "Mr. Su, you have only dug up a piece of ginseng, are you going back now?"
According to Mingchao's idea, when I came here, I had to dig a few more ginseng before leaving! Why did Shu dig only one and leave?
"I've used it enough, so I don't need to dig it anymore! It's good to wait for them to grow longer!" Shu said with satisfaction on his face, smiling at Mingchao, and then signaled her to leave!
Ming Chao was a little reluctant: "Master Su Dai, take a few steps up and you may be able to see ginseng with a higher age! Otherwise, we will dig another one before leaving! Maybe after you go back, you will find that this ginseng is not enough?"
"It's not enough to come back next time!" Shu said with a smile, then looked around and asked in confusion: "Where are they all looking for ginseng? Why can't they see? Have they walked away?"
Ming Chao stood on tiptoe and looked around, but he didn't seem to see any figure. He couldn't help but shouted a few times, but he didn't get any response. He couldn't help but frown and said to Shu: "Maybe no ginseng of the right year was found nearby. They have walked a little far!"
"Then which direction should we go to find them?" Shu looked at Ming Chao in confusion and asked.
Ming Chao looked left and right, as if he had confirmed the direction of the others leaving: "They passed by, Master Su, we just walked along this mountain path!"
Shu looked indifferent. Anyway, she was not familiar with the mountains. She just put all her attention on ginseng and didn't see where others went, so Mingchao said, "How to go, then just go!"
Walking slowly along the mountain road, Mingchao kept looking around, shouting a few times from time to time, but he didn't hear a response, and he couldn't help but mutter suspiciously: "How far have they gone? Why can't they even scream like this?"
"Mingchao, are we going in the right direction?" Shu also felt something was wrong and couldn't help asking Mingchao.
"Right! I'm watching them come from here!" Ming Chao nodded to Shu with a certain expression, "In theory, they won't go too far!"
Shu nodded, couldn't help but look up at the shade of the tree above his head, as if he had discovered something, and couldn't help but stop. After listening carefully, he stopped Mingchao.
"Master Su?" Ming Chao turned around with a puzzled look on his face, "What's wrong?"
