Chapter 169: The Poisonous Herbs

Gu Chaoyan's eyes fell upon Zhou Huaijin's. He looked very sincere as he said to Gu Chaoyan. "The mountains are located in the capital city, but the deeper we go, the more dangerous it would get. There are beasts and monsters appearing here and there too. Actually, many people got bitten to death by the beasts a couple of months ago."

Gu Chaoyan flushed, but hearing what Zhou Huaijin said, Gu Chaoyan stopped being shy and said, "Really?"

Zhou Huaijin nodded.

The deceased were just ordinary people. No officers in the government cared about who they were specifically, but he found the whole thing peculiar.

So when Yan decided to get into the mountains, he hurried to catch up to her, hoping to keep her safe.

"No one except hunters dare to go into the mountains these years. So I was really worried about you," Zhou Huaijin said.
