Chapter 163: Sacrifice
Because the time is not long, although the crew has been evacuated and the staff of the scenic spot have done some processing on the scene, traces of stationing can still be seen. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Uncle Miao may have been instructed by Steward Jia, and he never asked them about the purpose of going to Changbai Mountain along the way, nor did he inquire about things, but only told him what he had seen and heard, and some myths and stories that circulated near Changbai Mountain.
Now when I arrived at the place, I didn't inquire about it.
Miss An nodded silently in her heart, this Jia steward is not bad, and the person she found is also very suitable.
Along the way, Miss An is not particularly tired because of her martial arts, while Jia You and Uncle Miao are already familiar with the characteristics of the snow mountains because they have been walking in the snow mountains all year round, and their physical strength is good, and they are not as difficult to walk as Qin Ge, so the two of them are okay.
It's just that Qin Ge has probably never walked through the snow mountain like this, and along the way, if it weren't for Uncle Miao and Jia You exchanging support, he might not have been able to hold on for a long time, and now that he has arrived at the place, he doesn't care about the purpose of coming here, he doesn't care about the image at all, and just sits down with a butt.
"I'm tired of Young Master Ben"
Uncle Miao laughed twice and said, "This little brother, walking on the snowy mountain is more strenuous than walking on ordinary mountain roads, and it is normal for him to be unable to keep up with his physical strength."
Hey, this sentence is right, the last time Qin Ge came, because he was a big name, the crew directly discussed with the scenic spot and asked the scenic spot to send someone to the destination, and the same was true when he went out. So he really hasn't really walked such a path.
And the reason why Miss An didn't choose to take the scenic car in the scenic spot is because Miss An is also the first time to go to the snow mountain, so she has to try it, and the terrain on the side of Fairy Peak is flat, and the snow layer is not too thick, which can be used as an early adaptation.
Although Jia You was not very tired, after all, after walking such a long way, it was also a bit of physical exertion, so he chose a stone and sat down.
When it was close to noon, Jia You took out some food and an alcohol stove from his backpack.
This kind of alcohol stove is a must-have for travel in the snowy mountains, although it is too small outside, and the firepower is far less than that of induction cookers and liquefied gas, but it is the most convenient to carry and the most practical in the snowy mountains.
Miss An can eat or not, Qin Ge, it's even more impossible, the two of them can simply make some ordinary ingredients, just to ensure that they can be eaten when cooked, far from the taste. Therefore, the work on food was handed over to Jia You and Uncle Miao, and the two of them carried the most food in their backpacks in addition to the necessary tools and cold-proof items, while the eldest lady and Qin Ge only had compressed food in their backpacks.
It's only half an hour, and the alcohol stove in front of Jia You and Uncle Miao is full of fragrance, which makes people's taste buds can't help but secrete saliva.
Qin Ge, who had a lot of physical exertion, also smelled this smell, and immediately gained a little more strength.
"Jia You, I didn't expect you to be so talkative, but you still have such a pair of skillful hands."
This period of time has made Qin Ge and Jia You familiar with each other, although most of the time Qin Ge is talking, Jia You listens silently.
It's the same this time, Jia You only snorted faintly when he heard Qin Ge's words, he doesn't like to talk much by nature, and he mostly looks cold when he communicates with people, and only when he faces Miss An, he will say a few more words.
And Miss An looked around, hoping to find some clues.
"Young master, it's time to eat"
Although she didn't like this title very much, she always felt that it was too high-profile, but the rules of the Xuanmen Gate were like this, so she didn't say anything, and went over to eat with Jia You.
People are iron and steel, if she doesn't eat a meal, she is hungry and panicked, although she doesn't eat a meal, she is nothing, she is also a person who practices martial arts, and her physical fitness is countless times better than ordinary people.
But now the environment is not so safe, and there are more serious challenges waiting for them later, so even if they don't find clues, they should go over to eat first.
"Uncle Miao, do you know what you're doing over there?"
Since they heard Miss An's words, they all stopped their chopsticks and turned to look at her.
"Oh, you're saying this, you're sacrificing to the mountain gods! When we came, my kind of worship could only be regarded as the most ordinary kind of worship, but it could not be regarded as a sacrifice."
"Sacrifice?" Qin Ge's gaze was a little suspicious.
"Hehe" expected that he was thinking crookedly, and Uncle Miao explained: "The sacrifice on our side is not like the kind of sacrifice you have seen, which requires living people or live animals."
"That kind of sacrifice is called a blood sacrifice, and we can't use this kind of sacrifice on our side, it will anger the mountain god, and we use it on our side, a spirit sacrifice."
The sacrifice to the mountain god is to ensure the safety of the people, and when the ginseng farmers want to go into the mountain to look for ginseng, if it is one or two people, it is simply to worship the mountain god, but if it is a team of more than five people, the sacrifice used is ginseng and other precious medicinal materials.
And most of the ginseng farmers here know the location of one or two ginseng, but they haven't picked it because of the year and other reasons, and when it is time to pick, generally this kind of ginseng, the year is relatively high.
And ginseng farmers also have an unwritten, but most people will abide by the rule, that is, ginseng with the owner, no one will pick it.
Ginseng with the main one refers to the ginseng that has been marked, usually a red rope with a copper coin. Ginseng farmers generally don't pick this kind of ginseng, because once it is discovered by the owner, it is almost endless, because often the family lives on a certain ginseng that has not yet been picked!
Ginseng is precious, but the value of low years is not high, the value of 10 years and 20 years of ginseng are several times, or even ten times, so there are often ginseng farmers who find that the year is a little lacking, and in order to get a good price, they will put the ginseng in place and quietly wait for the day of harvesting.
People will participate in the run, not a legend!
If the ginseng is stolen during the waiting time, it must be a very uncomfortable thing, so there are very few people who dare to steal the ginseng.
Ginseng has a spirit, especially some ginseng that is old, and it often needs special means to obtain it.
And if it's a 200-year-old ginseng, maybe it will kill people. Because, the ginseng that has been around for 200 years already has a trace of ignorance.
For the sake of safety and to be able to harvest high-vintage ginseng smoothly, people who find ginseng often find a few friends who have enough experience and trust to go up the mountain together.
And before going up the mountain, it is essential to worship the mountain god!
Speaking of this, a hint of envy flashed in Uncle Miao's eyes! )
