Jiang Kevin returned home and sat on a chair as he racked his brains to think of a name. However, he did not manage to think of one even when her head was aching.

The cell phone in his hand vibrated. Jiang Kevin picked it up and took a look: it was a text message from Yan Chenghan to tell him that his injuries were better and that he was returning to the army today.

Why didn't Yan Chenghan give her a call or video call?

This year, she put it aside after going through a round of thoughts in Jiang Kevin's mind and continued lost in her thoughts.

When she was jolted awake again, Jiang Kevin realized that she had inadvertently sent over the problem that was bothering her to Yan Chenghan.

Yan Chenghan quickly replied with a voice message to her. This voice message only had two words, "Mu Xi".

Mu Xi, Mu Xi Shan …

Was it because there were trees on the mountain, and also because there was an extremely shallow stream that flowed between the mountain and the Lin Clan village, that it was called Wood Creek Mountain?

After chewing a few times in his mouth, Jiang Chen felt that it was not bad. At least it was better than not being able to come up with a solution no matter how hard she tried.

However, Jiang Chen did not know the true reason for Yan Chenghan's name.

— — The mountain has a west China wood and a west China branch. Happy Jun and Xi Jun don't know "Yue's Song"

The mountains are accompanied by trees, the trees by their branches; my heart likes you, but you do not know it.

This was Yan Chenghan's secretly rubbing confession, and he secretly rubbed his hands, hoping that Jiang Kevin could hear it. Unexpectedly, he was just winking at the blind man.

Jiang Chen immediately called Lin Jianmu and told him that Shan had been named, "I'll be called Mu Xi Shan."

Hearing this name, Lin Jianmu's heart dropped when he heard the first word.

Although the name "Wood Creek Mountain" wasn't particularly eye-catching, it was at least a name, at least much better than some small hill, big mountain, or mushroom mountain.

Jiang Chen never expected Lin Jianmu to be so fond of this name. He immediately decided to leave the matter of giving a name to Yan Chenghan. However, she did not know that the reason why Lin Jianmu was so happy was because he had been abused by the various weird names she had mentioned earlier.

Lin Jianmu said, "I'll customize the signboard tomorrow …."

Jiang Kevin stopped him. "There's no need. We'll do it ourselves."

Lin Jianmu said, "Ah? Do it yourself? I think it's better to let the professionals do it... "

If the sign made by the owner was ugly, was it to be hung or not? Not hanging up hurt the boss's self-esteem; dying, hurt the entire Mu Xi Shan's self-esteem.

Jiang Kevin rotated his wrist. "No, let me try." "If it's really bad, it's not too late to find someone else to do it for you."

She didn't lack the money needed to make the plaque, she was just interested in it. If he really did it in a super ugly way, it would be too late to find someone else, just as Jiang Chen had said. She was not a person who would live to see the light of day.

Early the next morning, Jiang Chen went into the mountains again after eating dinner.

She was going to look for wood suitable for carving plaque.

Wood is divided into hardwood and cork.

Hard wood stability is suitable for carving technology, the furniture produced is expensive.

Furniture made of cork is more affordable.

Common hardwood is rosewood, yellow pear, chicken wing wood and jujube, and so on.

There were even more cork, such as black walnut, cherry, walnut, elm, beech, nanmu, pine, cedar, and camphor.

However, in the north, there were almost no hard wood growing. Generally, hardwoods grow in subtropics or even tropics.

Nowadays, if you want to get good hardwood, you have to import it from foreign countries.

Jiang Chen had never thought of making expensive hard wood to harm her. She had come up the mountain in search of good quality cork to use.

In fact, if Kevin Jiang lowered her standards, the pine trees on Mushu Mountain would make her open her mouth to use. She wanted to see if she could find a walnut tree or cherry tree that was over thirty years old.

This time, Jiang Kevin avoided the places he had visited before — she had an impression of all the places she had been before — and headed deeper into the Fallen Leaves Mountain.

The deeper they went, the denser the trees grew and the more rugged the mountains became.

Even if it was an old hunter, he would still sigh and return when he reached this place.

However, Jiang Kevin did not have such scruples. She did not even walk on the ground but nimbly jumped from tree to tree like an ape.

At eight o'clock in the old forest in the mountains, everything was full of life.

Birds were playing among the leaves. The squirrel blinked its big eyes and used its front paws to hold the pine cone. It kept looking down and its mouth kept moving. A long snake the same color as the trunk slowly climbed up, its cold eyes staring at the nest on the branch.

There was a group of monkeys hanging from two trees that were similar in size. The little monkey firmly held onto his mother, looking around cleverly. The big monkeys gathered in groups of two or three to catch lice from each other.

Suddenly, a tall figure nimbly landed on the tree. None of the monkeys noticed it. It wasn't until the tall figure left, touching the little monkey in the mother's arms, that the troop of monkeys was alerted and scattered in all directions.

The result of her prank on monkeys was being chased down by monkeys — Jiang Kevin caught the fruit that was coming from behind and put it in his pocket — this group of vengeful monkeys had been following her for more than an hour.

Of course, this was also because Jiang Kevin had not deliberately requested for their results. The process of finding wood was very boring, and it was not bad to have naughty monkeys accompanying him.

At lunchtime, Jiang Kevin found a tree and sat down to eat. However, just as she opened the package and took out the bread, a dozen different kinds of fruits were thrown over … In addition to the fruit and a few stones, the monkey has also learned to be bad.

After changing locations a few times and having her meals interrupted, she finally understood the consequences of having a cheap hand.

There was no other way. Jiang Kevin could only use his lightness techniques to shake off the monkey.

Jiang Chen was quite lucky this time as he found a spring. She leaned over, scooped up a handful of water, and took a sip.

In an instant, a cool feeling flowed down his throat to his heart.

This spring water was truly sweet and refreshing. It was better than the water she had drank before, whether it was spring water, mineral water, or running water.

Perhaps, only in this deep forest that had never been used by people before would there be such refreshing and sweet top-grade spring water.

Jiang Kevin took out all the water bottles in his backpack and poured the water in the bottles into the soil beside him. Then, he filled up the entire spring.

After filling the container with water, Jiang Chen looked at the situation in the vicinity and shook his head in pity. This place was too far away from the Wood Creek Mountain, or else she would have thought of a way to lure the spring water to the Wood Creek Mountain. It was excellent both for cooking and for drinking.

After finishing his meal and leaving Shan Quan's side, Jiang Kevin continued to look for suitable lumber.

Very quickly, Jiang Kevin reaped his harvest.

This was a huge walnut tree that was more than ten meters tall, and even if the two of them hugged it together, they wouldn't be able to bring it back. It had probably been several hundred years.

It was not that she found it a pity but that although it was easy to chop down the tree, it was difficult to transport such a large tree out by herself.

She decided to look for it again. Maybe she could find it better than this tree. If she didn't find it in the end, she could come back.

This time, his luck was not bad. Just as the sun was slightly to the west, Jiang Kevin reaped another harvest.

But this time she found not a walnut but an elm.

An elm is not like an elm; an elm is not a genius. Elm, also known as boxwood, is found in valleys, streams, and forests up to 1200-2600 meters above sea level.

The boxwood was growing very slowly. Although the boxwood that Jiang Chen had found was less than three meters tall and had a diameter of only thirty centimeters, it had to be at least forty to fifty years old.

Jiang Chen unsheathed the machete behind him and easily cut the yellow poplar wood from its roots. She carried one end of the tree trunk in her arms and chopped off all the branches on it with her machete, leaving only a bare branch.

In order to get lucky, Jiang Chen broke the yellow poplar tree in half from the middle, splitting it into two sections of less than 1.5 meters.

She used the rope she carried with her to tie up the two sections of wood. With a flip of her wrist, she flipped the pieces of wood onto her back and walked back with satisfaction.

When Jiang Kevin returned, he deliberately returned to the mountain spring. She squatted by the mountain spring and took two sips of water. After clearing her thirst, she stood up and was about to leave when she suddenly heard a faint "meow".

She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a kitten the size of a forearm lying on a rock. It tilted its head and mewled weakly at her.

A kitten?

Jiang Kevin leaped to the side of the rock and took a closer look. It really was a cat, and it was a heavily injured one at that.

The successful conclusion of the matter made Jiang Kevin in a good mood and also allowed her to have the leisure to help heal the injured cat. However, when she lifted the cat by its neck from the rock, her kind heart became filled with interest.

It was a little lynx!

The lynx looks like a cat but is far larger than the cat. It has a thick body and an extremely short tail, which is usually less than one-quarter of the length of the head. The limbs were thick and long and strong. The tips of the ears are covered with black tufts of hair. The cheeks have long, drooping hairs.

This was the lynx's introduction, and it was exactly the same as the "kitten" in front of him.

Jiang Kevin remembered that one of her colleagues had once owned a lynx. It was ferocious, but also cunning and cautious. It liked to eat wild rabbits, but its hunting range was very wide, such as squirrels, wild rats, wild chickens, and even attacked deer, deer, and deer cubs, as well as piglets, sheep, and other domestic animals.

Jiang Kevin was truly interested this time.

According to the size of the house cat, this was already the size of a big cat. But if it was a lynx, it was still a baby lynx. I just don't know if this little lynx left its mother.

Jiang Chen held up the lynx and immediately saw the bleeding wound on its stomach. If it was properly treated, it could survive.

After Jiang Kevin skillfully cleaned and bandaged the little lynx's wound, he casually placed the little lynx into the backpack that she carried around with her and packed it with her.

Since she saw it, it was hers.

It was unknown whether it was because it was intimidated by the hidden baleful aura or because it felt that Jiang Kevin could be relied on, the little lynx only licked his fingers and did not refuse him.

Jiang Kevin was even more satisfied with this. He smiled gently at the little lynx that was nestled in his bag and said, "I have to say, it's your fortune that you met me."

The lynx moved its ears and mewled weakly.
