The second brother picked up a bowl of wine, took a sip, and said excitedly: "I took out the tools such as the fast sticks from the back basket, and began to open the plate and carry the mallet." Open the plate first, and decide the digging method according to the growth and growth environment of the ginseng, which is the best way to take care of the house. ”

"Others are upwind and light fires to keep mosquitoes away and wild animals to keep them out. At the beginning, Lang surrounded me with a branch to fan the wind to repel mosquitoes, and he had to light a cigarette at any time. ”

"I sharpen and grind deer antlers to make six-inch-long skewers, dig ginseng in the soil, the texture is hard and smooth, it does not absorb water, it does not mildew, it does not carry mold, and if it scratches the ginseng, it will not rot. ”

"You have to make sure that every fibrous root is intact, and if you dig up a single ginseng, you won't be able to sell it for a good price. Three and a half hours. I heard that there was once a seedling and a six-grade leaf king, and he carried it for a day and a night!"

"Fifteen cents weigh, seventy-six centimeters long, at least eighty years. All the brothers were overjoyed, and hurriedly took a large piece of red pine bark, lined it with moss, and asked the mallet to sleep on the moss. ”

"Then I grabbed a handful of Liniang soil in the pot where I brought out the ginseng, and covered it with it, so that the ginseng would not be homesick, so that I could invite out of the big forest. I wrapped a red cloth with my own hands, as if I was putting a red hijab on the ginseng girl who had been practicing in the mountains for a hundred years, and happily looked for the person who was destined for it in the world. ”

After speaking, he stared at Johnson and said emotionally: "You and it are destined to meet thousands of miles away, remember, treat the baby well!"

Johnson nodded, go back and make a good offering, it may be of great use at a critical moment. The second brother wiped his face with his hand and said with a smile: "Before going down the mountain, choose an old pine tree next to the pot that carries out the ginseng, peel off the bark, cut out the square, and mark the number of people who put the mountain and the size of the unearthed ginseng, which is called chopping omen." ”

"Happily go down the mountain, four leaves to arrange flowers, five leaves to hang flags, six leaves to build a temple, burn incense and respect the old head Sun Liang, thank you for the blessing, the brothers are safe, did not go to Mada Mountain to get lost, and carried to the large goods ginseng, Daqing for three days. ”

"The money bought is divided equally among all the brothers, and the blessings are shared with the hardships, and we will enter the mountain again next month, hoping for a good harvest!"

Later, Johnson realized that the so-called one-year-old ginseng is composed of three leaflets, commonly known as Sanhuazi, the two-year-old ginseng is composed of five leaflets, shaped like a human hand, commonly known as the horseshoe, the three-year-old two branches, each with five leaves, commonly known as Erjiazi, and the four-year-old three branches, commonly known as the lampstand.

The four branches of the five-year-old are commonly known as the four-pinned leaves, the five-pronged branches of the six-year-old are commonly known as the five-pint leaves, and the six-pinned compound leaves are commonly known as the six-pint leaves, because the ginseng grows to the six-pinned leaves, which is a rare treasure of heaven and earth in a hundred years.

Some people say that Changbai Mountain is the land of the Manchu imperial family's dragon and is forbidden to go into Changbai Mountain to dig ginseng, catch and kill the head and exterminate the clan. Digging ginseng in order to avoid the government's investigation, called a mallet to avoid risks.

Some people also say that the mallet is the nickname of ginseng, and that ginseng has legs and can run, but when you find it, you can't run when you call it your nickname.

Listen to it satisfied, go back and put it up, and drink a glass of wine every day to replenish qi and blood, and prolong life.

The second brother was very happy, found a good family for the mallet, took Johnson's hand, and said affectionately: "My brother is really good, this friend is worth making! It's not easy to come all the way, don't leave in the afternoon, take you to open your eyes!"

Full of wine and food, he lay down on the hot kang to rest for a while, waited for the second brother to wake up, led everyone down the mountain, came to a courtyard in the village, and shouted: "Is Lao Huang at home?"

"What are you yelling for?" As soon as the door opened, an old man came out, in his early fifties, full of energy, especially his eyes, and the thief was shining.

The second brother pushed the door into the garden and said with a smile: "A few friends have come down from the mountain, and I have brought you here to see and learn." ”

Lao Huang glanced at Johnson a few times, pouted and said, "Hmph, come in, just look for trouble!"

The second brother gave Johnson a look, Johnson nodded, who among the folk masters doesn't have a temper?

The room was very simple, Lao Huang walked to the side of the bed, and there was a white cloth roll on it, one big and one small, and the small head actually showed a pinch of tea-yellow feathers. The second brother stepped forward and said in surprise: "Flat head, hooked mouth, ginger eyes, and raised eyebrows, is it Huang Ying?"

"Count your kid a little eyesight!" Lao Huang showed a smile and said proudly: "Two catties and three taels, the body is strong and not lost, and you can catch rabbits with ease." Those who weigh less than two catties are only worthy of being called chicken eagles, and there is no need to train to catch some pheasants and pheasants!"

The second brother gave a thumbs up, understood Lao Huang's urine, and deliberately praised: "See, this is a talent expert, the white cloth is to not hurt the feathers on the long journey, and the key technique is inside." A rope can tie the eagle back honestly, isn't it awesome?"

Lao Huang laughed, holding the eagle in one hand, unfastening the rope buckle with the other hand, and wrapping around the eagle's body a few times.

Lao Huang circled the eagle a few more times, tied the eagle again, and said confidently: "You can't catch an eagle in the wild, you have to bring a cage." Not to mention, as soon as the eagle was put into the cage, all the feathers were broken. ”

The crowd watched as he put the eagle back in its place, and the little one lay straight on the bed with only his eyes dripping and turning, and his whole body remained motionless, like a stick.

It was the first time SC Johnson had seen an eagle so closely, with its tea-yellow feathers, turmeric legs, and black nails, which were long, pointed, and sharp. A hooked beak, bent with a point, pierced and cut, omnipotent.

A pair of huge wings are tucked behind the body and extend to the tail, which can reach two or three times the length of the body when opened. In particular, the two yellow eyes, with a fierce light and a sinister aura, make people shudder when they look at it for a long time......

The second brother beckoned everyone to sit down and slowly became familiar with it, Lao Huang is the most senior tiger hunter in the village, and the three generations of his ancestors have eaten this bowl of rice, especially the eagle training, a well-known figure in ten miles and eight towns.

The old yellow eagle is the poor people's favorite breed to raise and tame, the body is big and fierce, the fighting action is simple and unpretentious, the hunting process is steady and accurate, when the winter farming is idle, feed one or two, after taming, go to the wild to hunt pheasants and rabbits, both fast and much, to the market to exchange money to subsidize the family.

And the royal nobles, the prince Baylor, never rare to catch rabbits and pheasants, people are pure and happy, the powerful and powerful breeding is commonly known as rabbit tiger, scientific name peregrine falcon. Small, light, the fastest flight speed, the hunting process is not known for ferocity, with clever division, with wisdom to determine the winner or loser.

"Peregrine falcons must be raised in pairs, and when hunting, the male and female attack together, and both husband and wife go into battle. Every late autumn when the leaves are falling, the children of the eighth phase lead the soldiers and generals, command the men, shout eagles, horses and lackeys, accompany the emperor's relatives and relatives, and embrace the son of heaven, and drive to the outer field. ”

Lao Huang rarely met a foreigner, hunting has long been eliminated, the original awesome training eagle has become a plaything and lost his mind, finally met someone who is interested, and couldn't help but open the conversation box and said: "The real hunting is a dog in front of it, the middleman rides a horse, carries an eagle on his shoulder, follows the sheep, the sheep carries the monkey, and under the leadership of the handle, surrounds the hunter." ”

"The rabbit lurking in the grass is picked up by a thin dog, and when the peregrine falcon finds its target, it rises and strikes left and right, forcing the prey to flee in a given direction and not to get lost in the bushes. ”

"The two peregrine falcons, one up and one down, fluttering on both sides of the prey, staggered and flapping. When flying low to the side of the prey, or stretch out the wings and flap the fan, or clench the fist and slam it, and leave with one blow, never in love with fighting. ”

"Fly high into the air, re-lock the target, and quickly launch a second round of attacks. You come and I take turns to attack, and the rabbit rolls its body and runs forward under the blow and coercion of two natural enemies, until it has heart and lung failure, liver and gallbladder are broken, and it dies of exhaustion. ”

Ignoring their prey, the two peregrine falcons turned and flew straight back to their master's arms, followed by the hounds surrounding them to watch over the rabbits, and the sheep in the procession rushed out of the crowd, and the sheep must be tall, well-built, and stout with two horns, and a pair of trees tied horizontally to the horns, and macaques squatting on the wood. ”

The sheep rushed to the prey, and the monkey came down and took the prey back to its master. There was no one to help him during the whole process, until the master got his prey, unhurriedly took out his saber, stabbed the hare in the throat, dripped blood into the eagle's beak, and then dug into its heart, rewarding the peregrine falcon. After a set of procedures, the prey is pocketed. ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, good guys, how awesome the ancients were hunting!
