Chapter 567: Discovering Hawthorn

Lin Zheng only followed Su Binglan to see if he could find anything worth keeping. However, he only found wild vegetables after walking for a while.
Su Binglan looked toward the ground and said, “Sure, you can dig some out.
We can use them to make dumplings, buns, or even add them to soup.”
She could add these vegetables to many delicacies. It was just that she wanted to find something more useful.
Lin Zheng started digging the wild vegetables, then Blue Two and Blue Three followed suit.
Su Binglan noticed the trio had many things in their baskets and said, “That’s all we need. Let’s look deeper. Maybe we can find something else.”
They had to leave space for other things in their baskets, so the trio listened to Su Binglan and continued walking forward. However, they felt the ground shaking and heard the sounds of animals crying as they walked further in.
The trees in the depths of the Black Mountain Forest were so tall that they could reach the clouds. The sunlight could not shine through, making it look like nighttime.
Indeed, it would be dangerous if wild animals were roaming. Still, the trio was bold and fearless. They just wanted to gather helpful things. They also felt fine, no matter how dangerous it was since Su Binglan was around.
As the trio had witnessed Su Binglan’s capabilities, they felt safe in her presence, especially Blue Two and Blue Three. They had seen how Su Binglan destroyed the Pavilion of Assassins, which made them admire her even more.
Lin Zheng had witnessed his master’s formidable abilities when he followed her to the capital to save Su Binglan. Therefore, even he was unafraid.
Suddenly, Lin Zheng missed a step as he walked. He shouted and fell. “Ah!”
Su Binglan threw a rope she held and hooked it around Lin Zhengs waist before pulling him up. She was calm and collected throughout the incident, while Lin Zheng was terrified.
But he was no longer afraid when he saw the rope around his waist. As he ascended, he noticed a tree growing on the hillside. There were fruits on that tree that looked like hawthorn.
Lin Zheng became excited. “Master, look. Isn’t that hawthorn?”
“Hawthorn?” Su Binglan raised her brows when she heard what Lin Zheng said. She knew she could use them to make many things. Moreover, she did not find anything like hawthorn in Su Teng Village.
Even those who sold candied hawthorns got their supplies elsewhere. Su Binglan imagined making things like hawthorn cake, slices, porridge, etcetera. They could also strengthen one’s stomach and help with digestion.
Su Binglan’s eyes lit up at the thought of that. She looked up the hill and said,
“I’ll pull you up first, then go down and pick them.”
“It’s okay, Master. I can pick them for you.” Lin Zheng knew hawthorns were useful to add to many foods when he heard his master’s voice. He wanted to help her pick them, but Su Binglan ignored him and pulled him up.
After pulling Lin Zheng up, Su Binglan jumped and stood on the hawthorn tree. Then she started picking the fruits quickly.
‘Wow, there are so many of them!’
She did not expect to see that many hawthorns there. Although she looked calm on the surface, she was excited inside. She quickly filled half of her basket with hawthorns and used her mind to store many more in her pocket dimension.
She only placed some in her basket for show. After all, others might find it strange and think she had conjured them if she did not place some in her basket and suddenly revealed them when they returned.
Lin Zheng looked at his master’s cheerful figure and felt envious. He also wanted to help his master pick hawthorn, as harvesting them gave him a sense of pleasure.
Blue Two and Blue Three were Shadow Guards and had grown accustomed to obeying orders. Thus, Su Binglan did not instruct them to follow her. Since that was the case, the duo stood rooted silently.
Su Binglan could not stop smiling after plucking all the hawthorns from the tree because her mind was full of ideas for making food with hawthorns. Moreover, the tree was quite old, and many hawthorns had grown. Thus, she picked a bunch at once.
Immediately after, she jumped from the tree. Blue Two and Blue Tree looked inside Su Binglan’s basket and knew she had picked the best ones.
Lin Zheng also looked closer and exclaimed, “Master, these hawthorns look big and round!”
Su Binglan smiled, “Mhm, these aren’t bad at all. I guess there are plenty more hawthorn trees around here. Let’s look around some more and maybe gather a few more hawthorns. Then I can make food with them for everyone when we return. ”
Lin Zheng became even more excited when he heard that. “Hehe, we knew you’d cook delicious food with those, Master. Everyone can’t stop praising your delicacies.”
Su Binglan laughed, “All right, 1 know how badly you want to eat them. I can make many delicious things with hawthorns, and they can help with digestion. Let’s look for more.”
Everyone began looking for more hawthorn threes in the surroundings. As expected, they found many more not too far away. They were excited, even Blue Two and Blue Three. After all, they knew their master could make delicious food differently.
The duo had firm self-control as Shadow Guards, and nothing could tempt them. However, it was a different case regarding their masters food. The duo looked forward to eating hawthorn when they returned.
“Everyone, start picking. Take the gunny sacks you brought and put the hawthorns in.’
There were too many hawthorns, so storing them all in the baskets was impossible. Hence, they had to use gunny sacks. It was more convenient, too, since they could carry the sacks over their shoulders.
Su Binglan discreetly placed some of the hawthorns into her pocket dimension as she plucked them while occasionally putting a few in her basket.
Lin Zheng, Blue Two, and Blue Three’s eyes lit up as they filled their baskets to the brim and poured the hawthorns into their gunny sacks.
The two Shadow Guards used to think they would not feel motivated if they went on small missions. However, they enjoyed picking hawthorns. They felt energized and excited but thought it was strange. As expected, doing anything was fun if they followed their master.
Lin Zheng moved quickly and wished he could pick all the hawthorn simultaneously. Then he could eat plenty of delicious food when he returned. Although the border was remote, he would not have found so many hawthorns in Black Mountain Forest if he had not come here. He only knew people who often made candied hawthorn but did not know what else he could use them for.
Still, that did not stop him from thinking about the possible delicacies he could try. Then, as the four started packing their things, they suddenly felt the ground shake and heard the roars of wild animals.
“It’s… Is that an earthquake?” Lin Zhengs face paled at the thought of a sudden earthquake occurring.
“No, wild animals are fighting nearby..”
