Four hundred and fifty-eight, Harvest

Xiayou Valley was vast, and it took Luo Shu and Xia Mu over an hour of walking inside the valley before they finally saw a mountain ridge.

"The herbs the village chief needed were gathered in that mountain ridge," Xia Mu said.

"Hmm!" Luo Shu nodded with a smile and pulled Xia Mu toward the mountain ridge.

As soon as they entered the ridge, they encountered a few villagers from Xiaxia Village.

Seeing Xia Mu bring Luo Shu in, the villagers greeted them warmly.

"Xia Mu has come too? Is she the girl you picked up by the creek? She sure is pretty!"

"You've come here to gather herbs too, right? Be sure to be careful, it's quite dangerous here."

"Xia Mu, both you and the girl shouldn't venture too deep into the ridge; there are many wild animals inside."

"Thank you, uncles and aunts, we'll definitely pay attention," Xia Mu thanked everyone.

After parting from the villagers, Luo Shu and Xia Mu continued walking ahead.
