You're the Biggest Danger in These Woods Now

Zhou Wanwan made a face at him, gave him a thumbs-down, and said, "Zhou Fuyu, you're still not good enough! Get up and keep chasing."

Zhou Fuyu's face turned pale with anger. "Fine, fine, you little brat, you just wait! I'll chase you to the ends of the earth and bring you back!"

Zhou Wanwan glanced at him with a half-smile and said, "You old rascal, I'm waiting for you. If you've got the guts, chase me to the ends of the earth."

After saying that, he immediately lowered the curtain and began reading.

She was reading storybooks, and just as she finished one, it was time to eat.

Zhou Wanwan said with a smile, "It's time for us to eat. It's been a long time since we went hunting. Let's go up the mountain and take a look."

Wang Quan couldn't help but say, "Master, this mountain is completely bare; there won't be any wild game."

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "This is outside. If we go deep into the mountains and forests, we'll definitely find some wild game."

Wang Quan said helplessly:

"Alright then! But hunting for wild game takes a lot of time. Last time we went hunting in the mountains, we didn't see a thing."

These prey are very cunning and hide very well.

Moreover, there are wild beasts in the deep mountains and forests, so we must be careful.

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"Let's go take a look. The locust swarm is quite terrifying. Even now, the vegetation on the outskirts is still bare."

However, things are better in the deep mountains and forests, where there is still some vegetation.

Zhou Wanwan led them deeper into the area, and every now and then she would stop to listen to the conversations of the flowers and plants.

Zhou Wanwan walked deeper into the valley before stopping, where she heard a clivia plant say, "Oh! This winter is so cold! Don't you think this winter is even colder than last year?"

A wild leek chirped, "Not only was it cold, but we almost got eaten by locusts! Damn locusts, damn porcupines, damn foxes!"

The wild chrysanthemum beside her chuckled, "Locusts don't like to eat you, you stink too much. What did the porcupine and the fox do to offend you?"

Wild leeks said angrily:

"That porcupine is the worst! It always comes over here to sleep and rolls around. Last time I almost got crushed to death by it."

That family of foxes loves to bring their cubs over here to play, and they also love to fight. They're really annoying."

Zhou Wanwan looked at it and said, "Are porcupines and foxes really that bad? Do you want me to help you chase them away?"

The whole forest fell silent. Wild Leeks looked around again and said:

"Are you talking to me? Hahaha... You dare call yourself 'older sister'? And you want to kill a porcupine, you..."

Oh no! That porcupine pack is coming! You'd better run for your life!

Sure enough, they saw several porcupines, covered in sharp quills, charging menacingly towards them.

"Miss, be careful!" Wang Quan shouted in a panic.

A thick branch from the Old Scholar Tree next to them suddenly swung and struck the two porcupines charging at the front.

The two porcupines let out a miserable cry and were sent flying, landing on the ground for a long time without being able to get up.

Just as the remaining two porcupines tried to turn and run away, several trees nearby entangled them completely, leaving them hanging in mid-air.

The porcupine squealed and kicked wildly in the air, but it couldn't break free.

Wang Quan stared wide-eyed, completely dumbfounded.

It took him a while to come to his senses, and he stammered, "What... what's going on? Why are these trees moving?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said:

"Four porcupines! To be honest, I really don't know if porcupine meat is any good! Let's have porcupine for dinner!"

But pork alone isn't enough! I feel like something's missing."

The Old Scholar Tree chuckled, "There's a mountain spring up ahead. Let's go check it out and see if there are any fish in it, and some mushrooms nearby too."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Wang Quan and said, "You guys take these wild game back first! I'm going to take a walk deeper into the forest."

Wang Quan hesitated and asked, "Won't you encounter danger here?"

Don't worry! It won't happen.

Lingbao chuckled and said, "This idiot definitely doesn't know that you are the biggest danger in this forest right now."

Zhou Wanwan led the Old Scholar Tree directly into the depths of the forest. Gu Sinian sat in the treehouse, looking outside and saying, "This is too amazing! A tree can actually walk! Am I dreaming?"

Zhou Qingyan, who is usually quite composed, couldn't hold back any longer. "Wanwan, how did you do that? It's amazing!"

Zhou Wanwan laughed and said, "We'll be friends with them, but we'll tell outsiders that it's a mechanism created by Luban Village."

The Old Scholar Tree led them into the woods, where there was a small river.

The Old Scholar Tree gathered all its roots together, forming a net.

It quickly scooped up all the fish in the river.

Zhou Wanwan threw all the small fish in, smiled at the more than thirty plump fish, but suddenly sighed and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to eat these fish next year."

The Old Scholar Tree chuckled, "Isn't that simple? We'll dig a big pond in the mountain village and raise some fish there."

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up and she said:

"That's a good idea. We can add some of the Lingbao's bathwater later."

"Won't those fish grow fat and strong?"

Zhou Wanwan found some more wild shepherd's purse, but it was also damaged by the frost, so she only found a bunch.

They also found a small basket of mushrooms, and Zhou Wanwan went straight back to the camp.

Wang Quan has already processed the porcupines, washing them thoroughly. There were four porcupines in total, and two of them were killed.

Zhou Wanwan said with a smile, "Tonight we'll have barbecue and fish soup."

Zheng Xing'an immediately brought out the grill, placed charcoal on it, and started grilling.

Zhou Wanwan then took out a bag of spices and said, "This is the best way to grill food."

This contains more than ten kinds of spices, so it's bound to taste especially fragrant after roasting.

Sure enough, the entire camp was soon filled with the smell of barbecue.

Zhou Wanwan took a bite of porcupine meat and said:

"This tastes delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."

This fish soup is really delicious, it's incredibly flavorful!

Ancient ingredients were simple and unpretentious, yet far superior to modern ones.

After finishing her meal, she rubbed her stomach and said, "I'm stuffed."

Zhou Qingchen couldn't help but say, "I'm stuffed too, it was so delicious! Wanwan, shall we continue climbing the mountain tomorrow?"

Just as Zhou Wanwan was about to speak, she heard Wang Quan's voice say, "Oh no, the wolf is coming!"

Sure enough, they saw many pairs of green eyes. Before they could speak, they heard the Old Scholar Tree next to them say, "It's not just the wolves that are coming; those bastards are sneaking in too."

Zhou Wanwan climbed the Old Scholar Tree and looked into the distance, where she saw thousands of horses galloping towards them.

Zhou Wanwan sighed and said, "This is probably what they call internal and external troubles!"

The Old Scholar Tree nodded and said:

"They are indeed facing internal and external troubles; they are so pitiful!"

I'm really curious, which would be better, a few hundred wolves or a thousand people?
