The farmer has a mall

Chapter 686 Digging for Ginseng

"What's that sound?" The man in white asked with a frown.

The subordinates beside him looked towards the source of the sound.

"Master, it's a tiger!" The subordinate was shocked, and protected the man in white behind him.

The rest of the people also gathered around one after another, watching the grass on the opposite side with vigilance.

Hu Hu blinked his big innocent eyes and looked at the man for a moment, then continued to walk deep into the forest as if nothing had happened.

Didn't care about them at all.

Those people looked at each other in surprise.

Many small animals will reserve a little winter food in advance, and then hide in warm caves for the winter.

They come and go only once in a while unless the food reserves are exhausted, so winter is the most difficult season for wild animals to prey on.

In this case, if you encounter wild beasts such as tigers and bears, it is generally difficult not to be attacked.

But the tiger just took one look at them and left.

Could it be that they are afraid of seeing their numbers?

But its strolling posture seems to be walking in its own garden, and it doesn't look like it's afraid.

Are you not hungry?
They took a look at the fat body of the tiger with big ears and fat ears.

It seems that the tiger's food is quite good on weekdays, and it should be that he is not hungry and did not run away.

Several people looked at each other, Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there were many of them, the tiger in front of them was not small, and if they wanted to take it down, they would definitely lose a lot of people.

The important thing is that nothing happens to the master.

A group of people watched Huhu go away vigilantly, the man in white was thoughtful.

"There are rumors that the tiger raised by the prime minister's niece, Princess Sheng, ran away yesterday. Could it be this one?"

The tiger in front of him was fat and strong, and his fur was smooth and clean. It looked like someone had raised it in captivity.

And it just happened to be a coincidence that Princess Sheng had lost a tiger this morning.

Moreover, he had seen the tiger once before, and the color and pattern of its coat were somewhat similar.

The man in white was not sure, and he was curious about Gu Nanyan, so he decided to follow up and take a look.

His subordinates disagreed very much: "This move is too risky. In case it goes crazy, we alone cannot guarantee that you will be fully protected. Please put the overall situation first, master."

"We haven't found what we're looking for yet," the subordinate reminded.

The man in white waved his hand indifferently: "I've been looking for it for a few days now, and besides, this tiger doesn't seem to attack people."

The tiger looked at him just now with peaceful eyes, not the slightest aggressiveness, nor any murderous intent.

And if this is really Prince Sheng's loss, it's not good for him to choose to turn a blind eye.

Regardless of his subordinates' obstruction, the man in white insisted on following Huhu, and at the same time ordered someone to pass the message to the prime minister's mansion.

Hu Hu carried the Chaos Beast, walking aimlessly in the mountains and forests, robbing a few small animals from time to time, but he was not hungry.

"Stop, stop, here." Chaos Beast pointed to a weed bush.

Huhu stopped when he heard the sound, and the Chaos Beast jumped off its back, walked in with its short legs, and moved its nose, as if to distinguish the smell.

It quickly determined the specific location and gave orders to its little brother.

"Here it is, let's dig."

Huhu walked over obediently, and planed on the ground with both paws.

After a while, a small ginseng as thick as a pinky finger was unearthed. Huhu picked it up skillfully, and threw it into the small cloth pocket that Chaos Beast gave it to hang around its neck.

The ginseng is a little small, but it can't bear to add up.

Looking at the slightly bulging little cloth pocket, Chaos Beast showed a satisfied smile.

The stewed chicken with ginseng is the best, but it's a pity that the stingy woman of the female devil only gives them a small bowl every time.

A bowl the size of a fist is not enough for a tiger to lick.

Chaos Beast was very dissatisfied with this, Naihe Beast's slight protest was ineffective.

I just took advantage of this time to dig a little more, and when I went back, I gave it to that woman Liu Zhenzhen to stew a dozen or twenty chickens, enough for one meal!

The Chaos Beast swallowed, and directed Huhu to move on.

The white-clothed man and his group followed far behind, puzzled by Huhu's stop-and-go behavior.

So when they were far away, he asked his subordinates to step forward to check.

"It's ginseng." The subordinate held a few ginseng whiskers not much thicker than a hair in his hands, with a complicated expression on his face.

He somewhat believed that the tiger was raised by Princess Sheng, otherwise what would a tiger do digging up ginseng, he had never heard of a tiger eating ginseng, its owner must have taught it.

"It's quite human." The man in white twisted his ginseng whiskers and placed them in front of his eyes, with a smile on his lips.

"Princess Sheng is really a god-man, raising a tiger is so different."

When he saw the small cloth pocket on Huhu's chest, he was sure that it was the one that Gu Nanyan raised. After all, a cloth pocket is not something that a tiger should have.

And no one else would raise tigers as livestock.

"Master, do you still want to follow?" The subordinate looked at the sky, "It's already noon, if you delay it, I'm afraid you'll return without success today."

The man in white patted the dust off his hands, and kept his eyes on the tiger in the distance. He didn't know what he had found, and he was digging the hole with his head down.

"If you look for it now, you will definitely find it?" he asked.

"The group of people who rescued the former prince were all masters trained by the Xiao family, and their skills are on par with mine. How could they be so easily exposed."

He scanned his surroundings, and there were all dead branches and vines. Although they were not as dense as in spring and summer, they could still cover some traces well.

"Then is it wrong for us to bring so few people up the mountain?" Hearing the master said that those people are so powerful, the subordinates were a little worried.

"That's not the case. They know that there are people under our mountain, so they dare not show their heads."

The main purpose of these people is to rescue the former prince Huangfu Hao, there is no need to have a confrontation with them.

The man in white smiled and looked at his surroundings again.

"Maybe they are watching us from the dark, but we can't see them." His tone seemed to be joking, but his eyes were very serious.

The subordinate's hairs stood on end for a while, the enemy was in the dark and I was in the light, it was as if he handed over his back to the other party defenselessly, and the other party only needed a hidden arrow to kill them.

The group became more vigilant, but this time the target was not Huhu, but the enemy who might be hiding in the dark.

"You don't have to be so nervous." The man in white still looked relaxed.

"I said they dare not act rashly."

At least they won't do it without being sure to kill them all.

Although the number of people on our side is small, it is difficult to keep one or two fish slipping through the net.

As long as one person escapes, it will alarm the people down the mountain.

What's more, he still has a signal flare in his hand. If he really can't beat the opponent, he just needs to run to an open place and release the signal, and the people down the mountain will rush up.

Therefore, the man in white was not worried at all, but was more interested in Huhu.

"Let's go, let's keep up with it, maybe we can ask it for help." The man in white said in a good mood.

Subordinate: "..."

It's getting harder to guess what the master thinks, what's so interesting about a tiger digging the ground, isn't their most urgent task now to find the former prince?
And how are they going to ask a tiger for help.

He admits that this beloved pet, which looks like Ruoyou, Princess Sheng, is smarter than ordinary beasts, but it's not smart enough to speak human language!
The subordinates felt that his master was just playing tricks, and asking the tiger for help was just his prevarication.

A group of people resigned to their fate and followed the man in white to continue walking into the deep mountains. Not only did they have to guard against enemies in the dark, but they also had to guard against sudden attacks from tigers and tigers. They were really exhausted.

The man in white guessed right, at this time Huangfu Hao and his party were indeed hiding in the dark.

It's just that his mind was not on the man in white, but on the tiger running ahead.

Huangfu Hao stared at Hu Hu with a gloomy expression, the face under the mask was particularly ferocious and terrifying.

"Gu, Nan, Yan."
