He had been a soldier for many years. During those years, he had gone deep into the mountains and into many ancient forests on missions. He had encountered numerous dangers, and had frequently gone on trips like these.

The current Mo Beihan was different from his previous self. After his rebirth, he had retained a lifetime of experience from his past life. He was even more skillful and seasoned than his previous self had ever been.

However, he was concerned about Gu Qingyao, so he did not intend to venture too deeply into the mountain in case Yao Yao encountered any dangers.

After crossing this mountain, they walked through the valley for some time before they finally stopped in a meadow.

Mo Beihan found a spot for Gu Qingyao to sit. “Rest here for a while. I’ll set some traps and lead you further on later.”

“I’ll help you! Two people can do it faster!”

“No need!” Mo Beihan rejected her. “You’re tired after such a long walk. You just rest. Or you can look for some wild herbs and mushrooms around here. Few people come here, so you should be able to find many of them.”

Gu Qingyao looked around and said, “Alright!”

This was a small meadow and there was also a small stream that ran through the valley. Many small animals usually frequented the area, so it was natural that Mo Beihan wanted to set some traps when they passed through.

Gu Qingyao took her basket and went to look for wild herbs and mushrooms.

There was a stand of shrubs near the stream, and some mushrooms grew there. Gu Qingyao picked a basket of them, but did not search any further.

There were few mushrooms here, and the wild herbs were old and tough. She did not want them.

But she did see some medicinal herbs, so she picked those instead.

Mo Beihan returned after a while, and the two of them continued on their way. They left the valley and crossed a small hill, made a turn, and walked for another stretch before they entered a bigger valley.

The valley also had several tall peaks.
