Bab 30: Chapter 30 Going up the Mountain to Seek Treasure

The next day, Wufu pretended not to see Madam Zhou's eyes that were swollen like two peaches and, after breakfast, slung the bamboo basket over her shoulder, ready to head for the mountain.

"Wufu, are you going up the mountain again?" Madam Zhou got a fright when she saw her daughter get ready and hurriedly grabbed Wufu's sleeve.

In the past, her going by herself was one thing, but with the rampant rumors of the Mountain Demon lately, she dared not let her take the risk.

She had only this one daughter, perhaps her only support!

Wufu glanced at the hand on her sleeve and said, "I'll be back soon."

"No." Madam Zhou wouldn't let go and said, "You child, why don't you listen? Have you forgotten that scoundrel Ma Dan?"

Wufu was startled, then smiled and said, "Mother, it's okay, Ma Dan is not a good person, so he was punished. But I am a good person!"
