Chapter 1194: Chapter 1195: Such Luck You Have

"Oh my God! May lightning strike me down! This must be someone setting him up! It’s that bitch Zou Xiaoling who’s behind this! My Baohe could never do such a thing!" Ho Laidi cried out, collapsing to the ground.

"Hey, get up! I’ll go with you to the town to have a look!" Yao Cong hurriedly called out.

No matter how you cut it, they were all from the same village, and the Party Secretary had also asked him to go to town with them.

If this were true, it would really put Siyang Village on the map again! Only this time, it would be for infamy!

Such notoriety could really be the death of them!

Chiang Songhai and Ge Dejun exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

They also quickly came to a realization.

The thing that Hu Xibing mentioned before about Yu Chunyu, it was obviously possible to link it to Chiang Baohe being arrested!

Could it be true?

Could the victim be Yu Chunyu?

Oh heavens!

This was a major disaster!

"Quick, let’s go see!"

Chiang Songhai couldn’t sit still any longer.

"Brother-in-law, I’ll go back to town to inquire about it and have Lin Jiang come over later to fill you in," Ge Dejun said in a hushed tone.

"Alright, go on, we’ll wait at home," Chiang Songhai quickly nodded.

Ge Dejun hurried off.

Chiang Xiao knew nothing of the town’s village affairs, as she was currently digging up a medicinal herb with Meng Xinian.

"We’ve been searching so long just to find this one herb, I’m afraid we won’t be able to gather all the necessary herbs today," Chiang Xiao straightened up, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

They needed the root of this plant.

However, the root was deep and difficult to extract, they had already dug deep but still hadn’t completely unearthed it.

If they could dig up more of this particular plant, they would, to avoid the possibility of running short later.

"If we can’t find it all in one day, we’ll just have to make more trips," said Meng Xinian, sitting on the ground and continuing to dig. Looking up and seeing Chiang Xiao, he couldn’t help but give a low chuckle.

"Come here," he beckoned her with a crooked finger.

Chiang Xiao bent down and approached, "What is it?"

Meng Xinian ran his hand over her forehead, then showed her his finger: "Where did you get this from?"

There was a small patch of purple on his finger.

She had just wiped her forehead, smearing a swath of purple.

"Eh?" Chiang Xiao looked at her own hands, which also had a small patch of purple, but she remembered that there was no color on her hands before she wiped her forehead.

This meant that her forehead must have come into contact with something.

"This seems to be..." She brought her hand to her nose, sniffed, detecting a faint bittersweet aroma, and her eyes lit up the moment she realized, "I know what this is, it’s the flower from the climbing vine we’re missing, its pollen is purple. When wet, it turns into a purple potion-like substance."

"Your luck..." Meng Xinian paused for a moment, then couldn’t help but shake his head with a wry smile.

Chiang Xiao jumped up, adding, "You keep digging, I’ll go back and look!"

She must have accidentally touched it when she was crawling through the woods earlier. She would just have to go back and look.

"Be careful, and shout for me if anything happens."

"Yes, Officer Meng!"

Chiang Xiao saluted with a snap and then ran off.

Meng Xinian watched her retreating figure, the smile on his lips lingering.

For his sake, she was willing to bravely come into these deep mountains to find medicine for his father. Moreover, he rarely saw a young girl climb mountains and weave through the woods with a constant smile, never once complaining of being tired or in pain.

Some of the terrain was steep, some of the underbrush was thick, and there were thorns. Just earlier, her shirt was snagged by a thorn, yet she was mindful to remind him to be careful not to get scratched.
