Chapter 289 - Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Ice Silkworm Tears (2/2)

The elder nodded in satisfaction, then waved over a few of the women who gathered herbs.

Chen Yu didn’t stand on ceremony and directly led the women into the herb fields.

Before long, several large baskets of herbs had been gathered.

The herbs here were naturally nourished by the environment, giving them an exceedingly strong medicinal effect, many times more potent than those cultivated in greenhouses.

If the herbs from here were used as raw materials, the output of semi-finished herbal products would greatly increase.

The elder had meanwhile made a list of the necessary goods and handed it over to Chen Yu.

“Since you have already got your hands on the herbs, we won’t see you off. The herbs you have taken can only be transported out by yourself.”

Chen Yu coughed twice, realizing that even though his body was at the peak of human physical prowess, carrying so many herbs across the cliff would still be quite the challenge.

However, thinking back on the incident with Er Gou, Chen Yu came to terms with the situation.

“If that is so, then I shall take my leave. Farewell!” he said politely before packing up the herbs and hoisting them onto his back.

The enormous bundle of herbs was twice Chen Yu’s size, looking like a small mountain upon his back.

Chen Yu didn’t dwell on it and, with the herbs on his back, bolted for the outskirts of the village.

This sight left the villagers staring in amazement.

With so many herbs, to be able to move so freely was something only Da Hu in their village was capable of doing.

Since Chen Yu was a newly made friend of Da Hu, he did not wish to see any harm come to him and instinctively followed.

But by the time Da Hu caught up, Chen Yu had already scaled the cliff with the large bundle and was on the other side.

Da Hu breathed a sigh of relief and headed back to the village.

Now that Er Gou’s true colors had been revealed, there was no longer a need for him to leave the village.

Chen Yu wandered the mountainous terrain with his bundle on his back.

The truck that had been driven there was long gone, taken by Er Gou, leaving Chen Yu with no choice but to walk down the mountain.

But just as he reached the foot of the mountain, a large group of people suddenly appeared at the road, blocking his way.

“Damn it to hell, I’ve been dealing herbs here for so many years without a hitch. You come along and abruptly ruin my business. If I don’t chop you into pieces today, I won’t be able to hold my head up in this area,”

Er Gou’s annoying voice suddenly rang in his ears, causing Chen Yu to frown. Before he could react, a large group of people armed with weapons and shouting loudly charged at him.

Chen Yu sighed in resignation; he really didn’t want to fuss too much with these people.

After a slight adjustment of his breathing, he deftly untied the bundle from his back and hurled it fiercely at the ones charging at the front, pinning them to the ground.

Then, like a bolt of lightning, he dashed forward, knocking the rest to the ground with a few punches and kicks, and directly lifted Er Gou up.

“You’re no more than an ant in my eyes. I don’t want to stoop to your level. Get lost now, or else I’ll take you back to that cliff and let you hang there for a few days and nights to thoroughly appreciate the place!”
