Chapter 18: Going Up the Mountain

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

On the mountain, the forest was lush and the terrain was rugged. There were many large beasts lurking in the depths.

In the past, when the living conditions were poor, the villagers would group up to hunt in the mountains. Later on, when their life was better, they no longer set foot into the depths of the mountain. Instead, they only came to pick some wild vegetables and mushrooms at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing that Qin Xi was about to enter the forest, Han Shi quickly pulled Qin Xi and said in a low voice, “Wifey, you can’t go in. Grandpa said that there are big worms inside! Big worms that can eat people!”

Qin Xi knew that Han Shi was stubborn. Without a good reason to convince him, it would probably be difficult for her to enter the forest today.

She thought for a moment and said, “Han Shi, do you want Grandpa to walk without a walking stick? And Mom, her back hurts from time to time. Do you want her to get better?”

“Yes!” Han Shi nodded heavily.

“Let me tell you, there are herbs inside to treat Grandpa and Mom. Let’s go in and pick the herbs to treat them, okay?”

Han Shi had deep feelings for his grandfather and mother. Although he only had the intelligence of a five-year-old, he knew a lot and was very smart.

Han Shi was a little conflicted. “Will Grandpa and Mom recover as long as we bring the herbs back?”

“Of course. After I treat Grandpa and Mom, I’ll treat you. At that time, you’ll be like a normal person, okay?”

Previously, she had used the Mystic Medical Technique to figure out what that black fog on Han Shi’s body was about and found that the reason why Han Shi had become like this was actually man-made. However, Han Shi had completely forgotten about it. Qin Xi could only treat him before finding the culprit.

“Normal person?”

Han Shi’s big and dark eyes lit up. “Does that mean I can have a baby with you when I become a normal person?”

Qin Xi almost choked to death. Her face turned slightly red and she stammered, “Logically speaking… yes, but…”

“Then let’s go! Let’s go make a baby!” Han Shi pulled her into the forest.

“Hey, hey, wait, wait.”

Qin Xi’s face suddenly turned red. Although her husband was a fool, he had a strikingly handsome face. She had no experience in dating or romantic relationships for that matter. Her heart skipped a beat as she was pulled into the forest by a man. She panicked and said, “Tell me, how are you going to have a baby with me?”

Han Shi’s expression was extremely serious as he said, “I know. If we take off our clothes and sleep together, We’ll have a baby!”

Pfft…

Seeing how serious he was, Qin Xi couldn’t help but laugh. “Who told you that we’ll have a baby like this?”

“I…”

An image flashed across Han Shi’s mind, but it went too fast and disappeared in an instant that he couldn’t catch it.

He scratched his head. “I don’t remember!”

Qin Xi held back her laughter and pulled him into the forest. “Alright, let’s not talk about this. It’s getting late. Let’s go in and find some herbs!”

“Oh, okay!”

Qin Xi’s current mystic medical technique was only at the first level. Although it was a little difficult to deal with a large ferocious beast, it was by no means impossible. At most, it would take some effort.

Therefore, as soon as the two of them entered the forest, they went straight to the deepest of it.

Han Shi had never gone so deep into the forest. From time to time, he would look around and touch things. He was very interested in the environment here and everything was new to him.

Qin Xi, on the other hand, lowered her head and dug for herbs along the way. Almost no one journeyed across this place, so there were many common herbs on the ground. She collected a little bit of each.

“Huh, what’s this?”

Han Shi saw something that looked like a bird’s nest on the tree. Just as he was about to reach out, Qin Xi suddenly shouted from behind, “Don’t move!”

Then, she flew over like an arrow.
