Section 3 Cracks
Gu Fan searched carefully while picking up the bushes in front of him, and muttered in a low voice, "First!" First! ”。 Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info However, luck didn't seem to be on his side today, and it took a long time for him to find two herbs of average quality. Even so, I couldn't see the slightest deflatation on his face.
Looking up at the top of Yaowang Mountain, which was shrouded in white mist in the distance, Gu Fan suddenly remembered that an old hunter in the village had said that the higher you climb, the more you will gain. It suddenly dawned on me that the reason why I was collecting so slowly must be because I hadn't climbed high enough. Thinking of this, he nodded, happy at his discovery, and then raised his arms and climbed up.
The further up you go, the denser the trees and the sparser the roads. At first, Gu Fan was still near the path that the hunter walked out, but then he gradually deviated from the main path, only remembering that he was climbing up.
"Sky Star Grass!" Pushing aside a bush, Gu Fan was pleasantly surprised to find a densely distributed piece of celestial star grass hidden underneath. And after he carefully dug up the roots of this Heavenly Star Grass, he found that such a large piece of Heavenly Star Grass was actually just one plant. "Maybe it's the Mother Sky Star Grass." Gu Fan secretly guessed that such a big plant topped several plants he usually saw.
After cleaning up this Tianxing Grass, Gu Fan suddenly noticed that there was a thin crack near the location of the Tianxing Grass, which spread forward, as if someone had slashed it on the ground, and in the crack, there seemed to be a trace of white gas coming out again.
"The earthquake shook the mountains apart." Gu Fan thought to himself. Just as he was about to turn around and look for a new target, Gu Fan suddenly looked along the crack as if he remembered something.
"Is it a delusion? Why do you always feel that the grass and trees in front of this crack are taller and bigger than those around it? Unable to suppress his curiosity, Gu Fan brushed aside the shrubs and weeds, and found that sure enough, the crack had been spreading forward, and the leaves of the grass and trees around the crack were obviously greener and bigger than what he usually saw.
Before he could figure out what was going on, Gu Fan was pleasantly surprised to see a mink grass near the crack in front of him, and it was much larger than what he saw every day. After carefully collecting, Gu Fan suddenly made up his mind, and looked forward along the crack, if he could still follow the rhythm just now, there would definitely be a satisfactory harvest for him next.
Gu Fan climbed all the way up the crack. The crack was originally a thin crack that was hard to notice without looking closely. Later, the crack gradually became the width of a foot, and as the crack widened, bursts of white mist continued to emerge from the crack. And Gu Fan noticed that the grass and trees around the crack were very obvious and more lush, and the stems and leaves of these plants and trees were quite fresh, as if they had just grown recently.
"It's not like the top of the mountain is split in half." Gu Fan suddenly had such a strange thought, and then grinned, as if he was also amused by himself. He was indeed very happy, walking along the crack, Gu Fan found a few more herbs, and they were all very large. If you continue to pick it up at this pace, if you're lucky, you might get the first place.
So he continued to walk along the crack, and the crack became wider and wider, starting from a few feet wide to nearly a person's width, and the crack became deeper and deeper, until the bottom was no longer visible, and the white mist gushing out of it became more and more abundant.
Although the harvest was getting more and more abundant, looking at the hazy mist that had begun to appear in the air in front of him, Gu Fan hesitated: Do you want to move on? Ahead may be about to enter the fog zone, an area that even the old hunter would not dare to enter.
However, this hesitation only lasted for a moment before Gu Fan dispelled it. Thinking about the harvest he had made before, Gu Fan had no doubt that he would be able to collect more of the required herbs in front of him. Moreover, the desire hidden in Gu Fan's heart suddenly became restless, hasn't he always been curious about this fog area? Didn't you always want to climb to the top of Yaowang Mountain to find out? Moreover! Aren't you going to study the Fa and then go to the highest place in the world, the farthest place? Let's start with the conquest!
Gu Fan secretly thought that after many people disappeared in the fog area, some people analyzed that they would no longer be able to see the road clearly when they entered the fog area, and they would only go deeper and deeper until they disappeared. But what if you just walk along this crack? Be careful, don't wander around, and then gather enough herbs and come out along the cracks, which seems like a viable option.
Don't go into the fog area to get the herbs!
Gu Fan took a deep breath and continued to climb up the mountain along the crack. As the surrounding fog rolled from sparse to thick, Gu Fan's visual range became smaller and smaller. Although the thicker the mist, the herbs were also stronger, as if they had been amplified by others, but what made Gu Fan helpless was that it was not only the herbs that were magnified, but all the herbs and trees in the place where they passed were several times stronger and more lush than usual. What's even more uncomfortable is that different plants and trees are entangled together, which greatly increases the difficulty of Gu Fan to move forward and collect and even distinguish.
After carefully following the edge of the crack and pushing aside one piece after another, Gu Fan took a lot of effort to collect a few herbs, although the progress slowed down, so far there are more than ten herbs in Gu Fan's basket, but these more than ten herbs have occupied most of the bamboo basket.
After looking at his harvest, Gu Fan thought to himself, pick two more plants, and go back. Looking at the size of this herb now, it can't hold too much.
As a result, I don't know if it was because the grass and trees were too dense or the fog was too thick, and after walking forward for a long time, Gu Fan picked one.
Looking at the fog around him that was almost thickened, Gu Fan deeply felt that maybe the goat milk squeezed out by Uncle Li's house next door was not as thick as this fog. "It's like swimming in goat's milk." Gu Fan was almost crawling on the ground.
Just as he was thinking about whether to go back, Gu Fan suddenly touched a smooth and round thing in his hand. Pulling it hard in front of him, it took Gu Fan a long time to see that it was a red fruit with black markings.
"This is? Could it be the Fire Dragon Pill? Gu Fan secretly compared his previous impression of this herb with Qing Huan and himself, first of all, not to mention that the size of this Fire Dragon Pill was too big beyond the ordinary, but the blurred black markings on it that he saw just now seemed to be very different from the gray spots he usually saw.
"Maybe the Fire Dragon Pill on the mountain is different from the ordinary Fire Dragon Pill." Gu Fan secretly thought, pick it first, and according to the instructions of the Qinghuan Fairy, the whole body of the Fire Dragon Pill is a treasure, and the roots, stems, leaves, and fruits can all be used in medicine.
Following the fruit that had been dragged over, Gu Fan began to grope for the roots of this fire dragon pill grass. But after a while, he was dumbfounded, this is a medicinal herb, this is obviously a small tree!
Just sighed that the herbs on the top of the Medicine King Mountain were different from ordinary herbs, Gu Fan didn't think much about it, and began to dig up this Gu Longdan "tree" seriously. Since Qinghuan specially explained that the fire dragon pill root is also an important medicinal material, in addition to cleaning up the soil and debris with the medicine hoe he brought with him at the beginning, Gu Fan simply planed it up directly by hand, carefully cleaned up the soil at the roots, and dug out the taproot and other main branch roots one by one.
We're almost done! Although the process of digging the medicine was like touching the loaches in the mud pond with the mountain dogs before, Gu Fan clearly felt that the last main root under his feet was left in this Fire Dragon Pill "tree".
Gu Fan took a step back and started the last link. Dig out this heel and you're ready to go down. Gu Fan was a little excited, thanks to this crack, think that he was the first person to walk out of the fog area.
Finally dug out the last main root! Gu Fan leaned back excitedly, ready to wave his fists in a long howl to celebrate. I didn't expect my body to fall straight back!
Worst! I took that small step back just now, forgetting that I was already on the edge of the crack! Gu Fan tried hard to grasp anything that could be touched on the ground, but he didn't expect that he had just been too meticulous and cleaned the soil here very softly. If anyone could see the ground here, they would be able to clearly see the deep groove scratched by the five fingers on the ground, which was the last trace left by Gu Fan here, and then disappeared into the crack.
