Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!
Chapter 464: Is it Lingzhi?!

Chapter 464: Chapter 464: Is it Lingzhi?!

Jiang Li’s calculations were indeed correct.

Before they had walked even a kilometer, they discovered a huge nest near a small hill.

It was pitch black inside, not a glimmer of light to be seen.

At Jiang Li’s gesture, several people hid in the bushes nearby.

Bai Lu lowered her voice and said, "Jiang Li, are there really wild boars in there?"

Jiang Li nodded, "And it’s a male boar too."

With a swoosh, Bai Lu’s face turned pale.

Even Yu Li’s expression grew tense, "As far as I know, wild boars are very protective of their nests. How are we going to move in?"

Upon hearing this, Shang Shuyue snickered, "You guys are actually considering moving in? That’s a wild boar’s nest; it must be filthy and stinky. Besides, with a wild boar inside, who would dare to enter?"

None of them spoke again. The excitement they had felt just moments before died the instant they saw the cave.

They couldn’t even handle regular pigs, let alone wild boars.

There might actually be fatalities.

"So, if you ask me," Shang Shuyue said as she flicked her hair back, "we should just gather more wild fruits and things and exchange them for a tent to live in. At least—"

"We can’t go in, but we can lure the wild boar out," Jiang Li interjected unexpectedly.

Shang Shuyue, doubting life, widened her eyes, "Jiang Li, are you joking? Why would a wild boar leave its own nest voluntarily?"

"It’s not completely impossible," Jiang Li said as she began to unpack her backpack. "But before that, I need some equipment. I have to organize and sell the resources I have on hand first."

She piled up all the medicinal herbs and fungi she had gathered.

Seeing this, Bai Lu also dumped out everything from her backpack in a basket.

Yu Li followed suit.

However, Jiang Li shook her head at the pile of stuff, "Not enough, these could probably only fetch 100 points."

Shang Shuyue frowned, "100 points still not enough? What exactly are you trying to exchange for?"

As she spoke, she too dumped out the contents of her backpack, "This is all I have."

"Hahaha, hilarious, Sister Yue has a tough exterior but a soft heart, right?"

"Shang Shuyue, your uncle spoils her."

Seeing the look in Jiang Li’s eyes, Shang Shuyue quickly raised her hand, "Don’t be touched, I’m not helping you. I just want to see you shoot yourself in the foot."

Living in a wild boar’s nest is completely fantastical, okay!

Yet Jiang Li shook her head and said, "You misunderstand, I was just wondering how you only picked up so little stuff in an entire afternoon?"

Shang Shuyue: "....."

That’s too much!

Bai Lu said, "Jiang Li, is this stuff still not enough?"

"Not quite enough."

Bai Lu looked distressed, showing she really wanted to help Jiang Li.

She glanced left and right, then her eyes settled on Jiang Yan.

"Jiang Yan, do you have anything in your bag?"

Jiang Yan stiffened, then unzipped his bag.

Several people leaned over to peer inside—

It was completely empty, containing only two bottles of sunscreen and a few clothes.

Faced with everyone’s resentful gazes, Jiang Yan nonchalantly whistled, "I got too hungry listening to all your talk about geography, so I ate everything I found, okay? I couldn’t just starve, could I?"

Everyone: "....."

"I take back that statement about Jiang Yan being somewhat reliable."

"I can feel Jiang Li’s speechlessness through the screen."

Bai Lu suddenly pointed at his obviously bulging trouser pocket and said, "Oh, you’re hiding goods now, hand them over!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan immediately jumped up and covered his pants.

"No way, this is Xiao Hei I found this afternoon, you can’t think about touching it."

Jiang Li gave Yu Li a look, and the latter immediately understood his intention and lunged forward to take down Jiang Yan.

Bai Lu also followed suit and grabbed Jiang Yan’s hand.

"Jiang Li, come quick, we’ve got him under control!"

Jiang Yan, frustrated and swearing, said, "Damn it, you can’t do this, you gang of robbers! What’s wrong with me keeping a little trinket?"

Seeing them wrestling together, Shang Shuyue frowned and stood still, hesitant to step forward.

Jiang Li walked over and directly lifted his shirt to take out the item.

The moment she saw "Xiao Hei", her eyes clearly lit up.

Yu Li even exclaimed, "Lingzhi!"

Jiang Li nodded in agreement, "It’s a decent Lingzhi indeed."

Bai Lu gasped in shock, "I thought it was going to be some trash, but it’s actually Lingzhi?"

Jiang Yan lay on the ground beginning to wail, "What Lingzhi, it’s just my Xiao Hei!"

In the afternoon when Jiang Li and the others were hotly debating, he just squatted on one side watching ants climb a tree.

That was when he discovered Xiao Hei.

He didn’t know what it was, but he saw the ants all running around it and found it extremely curious, so he picked it up and kept it in his pocket to play with.

He didn’t expect it would still be scavenged by these robbers!

Yu Li stood up, took the Lingzhi from Jiang Li’s hand, and immediately showed an expression of grief, "Several petals are damaged, but if it were well-protected, it could have been a great hundred-year Lingzhi, perfect for medicinal use."

Saying this, he glared at Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan instinctively stepped back.

He swore.

This was the coldest look Yu Li had ever given, and if looks could kill, he would have died at least ten times by now.

So, he swallowed nervously, "Is this thing really that valuable?"

Yu Li didn’t respond, only continued to stare with an even colder gaze.

"Alright," Jiang Yan raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "Xiao Hei is yours, Yu Li stop looking at me like that, it’s creepy."

This time, Yu Li solemnly withdrew his gaze, and then carefully handed the item to Jiang Li.

"You better hand it over to the show crew fast, at least they can preserve it better."

Jiang Li nodded, then made a call to Zheng Xun.

The moment he heard the ringing, Zheng Xun nearly had PTSD, and seeing who was calling, he almost passed out.

Not her again!

"Hello, what is it?"

Jiang Li’s calm voice floated over, "Director Zheng, I’ve got something good here, are you interested?"

"What, more junk?!" Zheng Xun angrily stood up, "I need to emphasize again, we are not a junkyard."

"It’s Lingzhi."

"I’m telling you... what?" Zheng Xun sounded as if he had misheard, incredulously asking again, "What did you just say you’re selling?"

"Lingzhi," Jiang Li repeated, "Director Zheng, you really should get your ears checked."

Zheng Xun laughed in disbelief, "Lingzhi? You think I’m a three-year-old? Picking any random weed and calling it Lingzhi? You think that stuff just grows anywhere? Besides—"

The next second, he fell silent.

Because the assistant beside him pointed at the monitor.

On the screen, Jiang Li was holding up a small black Lingzhi towards him with a cheerful wave.
