Chapter 9

  "Cheng Zihan, Cheng Zihan, hurry up and follow me!" Just as Cheng Zihan was worried about where to find several thousand yuan, Qin Kesu's somewhat urgent voice suddenly rang out.

  Cheng Zihan was taken aback at first, then immediately jumped up from his seat and hastily said: "Dad, mom, I'm going out for a bit." Then he quickly ran out.

  "Qin Kexiu, what's going on? Can't you see I'm worried?" Cheng Zihan is now preoccupied with money and doesn't have the mood to fool around with Qin Kexiu.

  "This place is indeed a land of talented people! Guess what I've discovered?" Qin Ke Xiu couldn't hide his excitement.

  Cheng Zihan rolled her eyes, "Hurry up and say it! Even if I had a higher IQ, I wouldn't have the leisure to play guessing games with you!"

  Qin Ke Xiu felt a bit depressed, but he also knew that Cheng Zi Han was in a bad mood, so he didn't continue to tease her and directly revealed the answer: "In the small woods behind your village, I found a patch of red ganoderma."

  "What's Hong Zhi? What's Hong Zhi?" Cheng Zihan was confused by Qin Kexiu's words.

  "Are you stupid? It's just a type of lingzhi mushroom! This is purely natural wild red lingzhi, at this time in the market one catty of fresh ones would cost two or three hundred, isn't that right? Do you have any common sense? You've lived in the countryside for so many years, how can you not know anything?" Hearing Cheng Zihan's question, Qin Kexiu scolded her harshly.

  It turns out that he also had a chance to understand these things, today is also idle and boring, wandering around, as a result was chased by a black dog with no way to escape, just entered the woods, did not expect to have a harvest.

  "Really?" Cheng Zihan automatically ignored Qin Kexiu's sarcastic words and asked with some surprise.

  If what Qin Kexiu said is true, then the money for this land bidding will be available.

  Most people in this village are not very rich, and those with money have gone to the city to buy houses. Therefore, there won't be many participants in this auction, but it's also possible that someone might have ulterior motives to bid on that land. Cheng Zihan has already made the largest budget.

  Moreover, the village suddenly came up with such a move, and it's likely that there are reasons for it. It's probably because they have reached some unclean agreements with certain people, in order to 100% successfully obtain the right to use that land, Cheng Zihuan naturally needs to prepare more money, and at that time, the bidding price will be slightly higher.

  "Nonsense, of course it's true." Qin Ke Xu said with a somewhat complacent tone.

  Cheng Zihan didn't care about all this and excitedly ran towards that grove of trees.

  The forest has some history, it is said that it was already there before the village, the entrance of the forest is a several hundred years old banyan tree, the villagers say it is the village's Feng Shui tree, relying on it the village has been so prosperous and peaceful all these years, so they set up a public plaque at the top of the tree, and worship there during festivals.

  Cheng Zihan often came here to play, but this time when he passed by, he suddenly heard a strange sound ringing in his ears.

  "Ow, ow, it hurts so much!"

  Cheng Zihan felt a chill run down her spine. She was normally carefree, but in reality, she had a very timid heart and was most afraid of supernatural things. Before, she didn't believe that ghosts existed, but after getting to know Qin Kexiu and experiencing rebirth herself, her views completely changed. Now, hearing this voice filled with despair, she was naturally frightened and hastened her pace. But just as she took a few steps, the voice sounded again in her ear, "Ahhhh, don't bite my roots anymore, I'm going to die!"

  Cheng Zihan heard clearly this time, and the voice seemed to come from that ancient banyan tree. She looked at the tree with some curiosity and asked Qin Kexiu: "Qin Kexiu, did you hear any strange sounds?"

  Qin Kesou was somewhat puzzled, he hadn't heard anything, but the small woods were indeed gloomy and frightening. He thought it was because Cheng Zihan was timid, so she was afraid, and with some disdain in his heart, he said: "No, where is there any sound?"

  Cheng Zihan perked up her ears and listened carefully again, but that sound suddenly disappeared.

  She was just about to lift her foot and leave when she heard that voice ringing in her ear again, "Kid, you stepped on me."

  Cheng Zihan's whole body trembled, her legs shaking with fear. She slowly lowered her head to take a look at the ground beneath her feet, wondering if she had stepped on something she shouldn't have. However, all she saw was a tree root sticking out of the ground, nothing else.

  At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and the voice echoed again, "Child, there are many insects biting me under my body. Since you can hear me speak, find someone to help me get rid of these insects, and I will definitely repay you."

  Cheng Zihan only felt that all the goosebumps on her body had risen, wanting to run, but her legs were trembling constantly. She turned back with a stutter, took a look, but couldn't see even half of a person's shadow.

  Qin Kesou also felt that something was wrong with Cheng Zihan at this time, and asked: "Cheng Zihan, what are you doing? Hurry up."

  Cheng Zihan wanted to cry but had no tears, she actually wanted to leave, but now the problem is that she can't move!

  Which road is this immortal from? Is it that they've discovered her death and rebirth, so they're here to collect her?

  Cheng Zihan was just thinking of speaking when the voice came again: "Child, if you don't believe me, I'll give you a gift to meet first."

  Cheng Zihan was just about to open her mouth to refuse when she heard the rustling sound, and then a black thing fell from the sky and landed right in front of her.
