Hu Zhuang suddenly started saying these things to them, and deliberately being familiar with them, which made Ali and the others start to be wary!

Hu Zhuang sensed the hostility from Chen Ping and his companions, so he hurriedly explained: "These are all things I overheard. I originally wanted to steal medicine from the security guard's office because I couldn't afford to buy it, but I overheard this information."

"I tell you this because I want to form an alliance with you. You see, immortal herbs grow deep within mountain ranges and are often protected by spirit beasts, so this expedition will be extremely dangerous."

"In this squad, I'm the only one on my own. If real danger ever came, there wouldn't be anyone to help me."

Hu Zhuang's explanation could make sense, but Chen Ping didn't take it lightly. Instead, he continued to ask, "Then why did you choose to ally with me Our few people are not the strongest."

After all, in this group, Chen Ping and his people were the least conspicuous. Two men, a woman, and a child who wasn't particularly big or small. If they had to choose an alliance, they would definitely choose the most powerful one!

Hu Zhuang gave a wry smile and said, "Because choosing to ally with you is the safest option. I know you are people from Dashi Village, and you have a grudge against Daqing Village."

"I really want to ally with the strong, but they might not accept me They might even sell me out to Daqing Village."

“I chose you because even if you don't accept me, you won't sell me out to Daqing Village.”

Chen Ping listened, the hostility on his body slowly disappeared. He knew what Hu Zhuang said was true!

After all, Hu Zhuang had no choice in this situation. It seems that what Hu Zhuang said about Zhang Shenyi's condition wouldn't be false!

Although Chen Ping felt relieved about Hu Zhuang, he was filled with worry about the upcoming journey!

Chen Ping doesn't yet know what kind of immortal herb Wu Feiyu and the others are going to harvest, but anything that reaches the level of an immortal herb must be guarded by a spirit beast.

Even without spirit beasts, venturing deep into the mountain range, with high-level monsters lurking everywhere, would likely leave these people with no return!

"I knew things weren't as simple as they seemed. I didn't expect Dr. Zhang to be harvesting fairy grass. This is going to be troublesome..."

"Ah Li Ge, what if we just run away secretly instead We shouldn't go with them!"

When Zhuzi heard that they were going to the mountains' depths to pick immortal herbs, he became a little afraid. After all, for them, the mountain's depths were forbidden territory!

“We can’t escape. Doctor Zhang’s skills are far beyond ours. If we try to run away now, we wouldn’t get far before he kills us!”

Hu Zhuang hurriedly persuaded Zhùzi to give up his idea of running away!

The pillar shuddered, his face paling with fright. “What are we going to do If we really get deep into the mountains, we'll be eaten by monsters!”

Ali fell silent, for he had no answer.

"I'm so sorry, Alige and Chenping," Yun'er said with a face full of guilt. "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to take this risk."

"Yuner, this has nothing to do with you. Although picking fairy grass can be dangerous, it's not necessarily so perilous. Try to stay optimistic; everything will be alright!"

Chen Ping smiled faintly and comforted Yun'er!

However, Chen Ping's heart was not as relaxed as it appeared. He knew that Wu Feiyu's strength was definitely not low, and there was that token. These two people were above the rest of them in terms of strength. Why would they let these people with average strength accompany them on a medicinal herb gathering expedition

You have to know that these are all nearby villagers, their strength and cultivation level aren't high. Going deep into the mountains, they would obviously not be able to fight those high-level monsters, but Wu Feiyu still wanted to do this. There must be other purposes behind it, definitely not as simple as accompanying protection!bled as sesame seeds fell, followed by a series of cracking sounds.
