After transmigrating into the book, the prime minister always wants to farm with me.

Chapter 60 Hang in there a little longer

Qi Yunran looked at the vast expanse of wild ginseng seedlings with delight, her heart pounding with excitement.

I carefully dug up the two largest wild ginseng roots in the middle, one that was 100 years old and the other that was 300 years old.

Because it grows on cliffs and in deep mountains where tigers once roamed, it has never been set foot in.

There were also a few very small ginseng plants, some of which were several years old. Qi Yunran didn't pick them. Tying a red string to the ginseng meant that these ginseng plants belonged to someone else and no one else could pick them.

Today's harvest was truly substantial; Qi Yunran was quite excited, having made a fortune.

He put the two ginseng roots he had picked into his basket.

I was thinking that if I went out like this and someone saw me, they would definitely be jealous.

He picked up another basket full of mushrooms from the ground, and then swaggered out with the basket on his back.

Just as I got to Huang Caicai and the others, I heard a series of cries.

Pei Wenwen covered her head and rolled on the ground.

Huang Caicai is running for her life.

Pei Wenwen had broken off a large piece of honey from the tree and placed it in her basket.

Even when stung by bees and screaming like a banshee, they couldn't bear to throw away the basket.

Upon seeing Qi Yunran, Huang Caicai immediately cried out excitedly, "Qi Yunran, please save me! These bees have gone mad!"

She's thick-skinned; even after being stung by a bee, she wasn't as hurt as Pei Wenwen and could still run away.

Qi Yunran immediately said, "Quickly, get down and don't move."

"Qi Yunran, are you... trying to harm me? If I lie down, all these bees will sting me!"

Qi Yunran thought about it and realized it made sense. The bees were already enraged, and lying down wouldn't help. The only solution was to jump into the water now.

But this place is quite a distance from the stream behind the mountain. This idea is unlikely.

"Then hang in there a little longer, I'll find a way to save you right away."

Pei Wenwen was in so much pain from the stings that she couldn't speak and kept screaming.

Qi Yunran quickly found some withered leaves and added several herbs to repel small animals.

He took out a flint from his pocket, lit the damp leaves, and a thick cloud of smoke rose. The bees, after being exposed to the smoke, immediately flew away.

Pei Wenwen was immediately choked by the smoke and couldn't catch her breath.

Huang Caicai saw that the bees that had been swarming around Pei Wenwen had been driven away by the smoke.

Finding it effective, they immediately ran over as well.

Just then, the villagers around the deep mountains heard Huang Caicai and Pei Wenwen's cries for help and immediately rushed over.

Then they saw a swarm of bees chasing and stinging Huang Caicai from behind.

Qi Yunran was adding leaves to a pile of withered leaves when a thick cloud of smoke rose up.

Exhausted from running, Huang Caicai jumped into the thick smoke to escape the bees that were chasing and stinging her.

Soon the bees flew away, and the villagers' eyes were stinging from the smoke.

The sounds of coughing and choking rose and fell.

After the thick smoke cleared, he asked, "Yunran, what happened to you?"

Qi Yunran looked innocently at Uncle Liu, who was driving the oxcart, never expecting that he had also gone into the deep mountains.

Seeing Qi Yunran looking at him with a puzzled expression, Uncle Liu explained, "It's not market day today, so I thought I'd come up the mountain to try my luck."

Qi Yunran innocently replied without asking any further questions, "I don't know what happened to them. After I finished picking mushrooms, they were chased and stung by a swarm of bees."

I remembered that you use smoke to harvest honey, so I tried it to save them. Surprisingly, it worked quite well. To prevent them from turning on her later, she brought up the subject first.

At this moment, the villagers immediately exclaimed, "Look at the tree, is that honey?"

Everyone looked up at the tree and saw that it was indeed a round plate of honey, but a piece had been cut off.

How much would such a big piece cost?
The villagers looked at Pei Wenwen's basket and, sure enough, found a large, semi-circular piece of honey inside.

His gaze then casually swept over Qi Yunran's basket, and seeing that it was only filled with mushrooms, he asked casually, "Yunran, did you only pick mushrooms today?"

Qi Yunran immediately said, "Isn't that right? I also found this big honey on the tree, but Pei Wenwen and Huang Caicai said that they found it and wouldn't let me get close, so I could only pick some mushrooms to eat at night."
