Chapter 101: A Ranger

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The house Chu Qingzhi wanted to build was very big. An Shanwu did not have enough manpower and found many laborers in the village. The villagers cherished this opportunity very much. Chu Qingzhi also paid a high salary, so they did their best to help.

When they saw Chu Qingzhi coming over, everyone greeted her.

“Hey, Qingzhi.”

“Qingzhi is here.”

Chu Qingzhi replied with a smile and walked all the way to the side of the mound behind the wasteland.

When she went out to find water sources last time, she accidentally found a few precious herbs. She picked them all and kept them in a small cloth bag. Today, she came to plant them on the mound.

Chu Qingning walked over and wanted to ask Chu Qingzhi some questions. Seeing that she was holding a hoe, she asked, “Fifth Sister, what are you planting?”

Chu Qingzhi placed the small cloth bag on the ground and was ready to plow the soil. “Knotweed and ginseng.”

Looking at Chu Qingzhi’s face that was red from the sun, Chu Qingning said, “Fifth Sister, let me do it. Rest for a while.”

Chu Qingzhi wanted to use a spell to grow the herbs. Otherwise, the herbs wouldn’t have the effect she wanted. “Fourth Sister, help me water it.”

Chu Qingning nodded. “Alright.”

The two sisters planted the herbs together.

Shen Ruyue came out of the room and saw Chu Xuhua holding his hand tightly as he walked into the room. There was a trail of blood on the floor. “Brother Xuhua, is your hand injured?”

Chu Xuhua stopped in his tracks. “It’s fine. I’ll bandage it myself.”

“Wait a minute.” Shen Ruyue turned around and took out a small box. “Brother Xuhua, I’ll help you bandage it.”

Chu Xuhua glanced at Shen Ruyue’s concerned face and couldn’t help but nod.

The two of them arrived at the central room. Shen Ruyue carefully bandaged Chu Xuhua’s hand.

The inch-long wound on his finger made her heart ache, and her movements were especially careful.

Chu Xuhua looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and his calm heart began to race.

Chu Qingzhi and Chu Qingning saw this scene when they came back.

Shen Ruyue had an oval face and willowy eyebrows. Her facial features were beautiful, and she exuded confidence.

Chu Xuhua was tall and handsome. He was a perfect match for Shen Ruyue.

Chu Qingzhi and Chu Qingning could not help but smile. The two of them looked like a match made in heaven.

Suddenly, the two of them saw the bright red blood on the ground. They quickly walked forward.

Chu Qingzhi asked with concern, “Brother, why are you injured?”

Chu Xuhua pretended to be calm. “I wasn’t careful when I was moving the goods, so I cut my finger.”

Chu Qingzhi secretly injected a few wisps of spiritual energy into Chu Xuhua’s body to help him recover faster and suppress the pain. “Be careful next time.”

Chu Xuhua nodded. “I know.”

The first batch of rice dumplings was out of the pot, and the fragrance wafted far away.

Every ten rice dumplings were tied together. The villagers prepared the rice dumplings and sent them to Chu Qingzhi’s house one by one.

Chu Qingzhi got someone to put the rice dumplings in the shed to cool first before freezing them.

The Chu family was so busy that they could only go back to rest late at night.

In the middle of the night, Chu Qingzhi came out of the house nimbly like a cat and flew into the mountains.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the night was quiet.

In the cave, Rong Yupeng was still lying on the hay, unconscious.

The two wolves dutifully guarded the entrance of the cave. They looked at the moon with pious eyes.

Chu Qingzhi landed in front of the cave. When the two wolves saw her, they immediately ran towards her affectionately.

“Thank you for your hard work.” Chu Qingzhi tapped between the brows of the two wolves with her finger. “Go.”

The two wolves wagged their tails and disappeared into the darkness.

Chu Qingzhi walked into the cave and looked at Rong Yupeng. The corners of her lips suddenly curled up into an evil smile. She squatted down and condensed a light on her finger before pointing it at Rong Yupeng’s glabella.

Rong Yupeng’s entire body quickly showed signs of abnormality. His hand moved downwards into his pants, and a lustful expression appeared on his face. His body curled up slightly, and his breathing quickened as he panted heavily…

It hurt Chu Qingzhi’s eyes to look at him, but she still had to do what needed to be done.

Suppressing her disgust, she picked Rong Yupeng up and flew all the way to the county city before leaving him in a dark alley.

After doing it, Chu Qingzhi flew to the Chu Village.

After flying for a while, she suddenly saw a person standing on the roof nearby.

Chu Qingzhi looked at him carefully. He was a young man in his early twenties. He was dressed in blue and had a gentle face. He had a tall figure and held a sword in front of his chest. He looked like a ranger.

The man was also sizing up Chu Qingzhi.

Under the night wind, Chu Qingzhi’s hair fluttered like thin willow branches. When she flew under the moonlight, she was like a butterfly.

The man smiled and cupped his hands. “I’m Tong Yujie. Greetings, Miss.”

Chu Qingzhi returned the greeting. “Chu Qingzhi, nice meeting you.”

Tong Yujie asked politely, “Miss, why are you out so late at night?”

This young man didn’t look like a villain, but unfortunately, Chu Qingzhi didn’t want to make friends now. Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “I still have something on. See you around.”

With that, she disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

Tong Yujie looked in the direction where Chu Qingzhi had disappeared and narrowed his eyes. “Her martial arts skills are surprisingly high. I wonder if I will have a chance to spar with her in the future.”

Shuiyun County.

Early in the morning, the county city that had remained quiet for the entire night slowly woke up. Everyone walked out of their houses one after another to enjoy the morning sun.

In this tranquil moment, a beggar suddenly rushed out of the alley, shouting excitedly. “Ahhh, I’ve found Second Young Master Rong.”

Everyone knew about Rong Yupeng’s disappearance. Of course, everyone also heard of the rumor that he was brought away by a few men.

Hence, when they heard the beggar’s shout, they looked towards the alley and a look of shock appeared on their faces..
