Shennongjia is located between the Yangtze River and the Han River at the junction of Beihu Province and Chongqing City, and belongs to the Daba Mountain System, with high terrain in the southwest and low in the northeast. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 In the INFO area, the forest and sea are vast, the river valley is deeply cut, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, the mountains are majestic, the peaks are mostly above 1500m above sea level, and there are 6 peaks above 3000m above sea level. The highest peak, Shennongding, is 3105.4m above sea level, which is the highest point in Central China and is known as the "Roof of Central China".
The name of Shennongjia is linked to an ancient legend about Shennong's taste of herbs: in ancient times, Emperor Shennong led the crowd to find a high mountain for tasting herbs, but seeing that the mountains here are steep and the forests are all over the wilderness, he believes that there must be a secret hidden medicine, and he can't help but be overjoyed. He first taught the people to "build wood as a house to avoid danger"; Following the people of the church, "erect wood as a ladder to help climb"; After collecting 400 kinds of medicines, he wrote the "Shennong Materia Medica", and in order to return to the Emperor of Heaven, he "set up a wood as an altar and flew across the crane". Later generations remembered the kindness of the ancestors, and called this high mountain Shennongjia.
The ancient legend is no longer verifiable, but now this is a national forest park, with the largest area of primeval forest in the interior, and it is also an extremely mysterious area, compared with the Qinglong Mountain in Zeng Cheng's hometown, it is also quite inferior.
In late September, Zeng Cheng appeared here.
Of course, Zeng Cheng didn't come to enjoy the original scenery of Shennongjia, but to have something.
A few days ago, after he dealt with the matter in Yudu and let Long Lu have no worries in Yudu University, he returned to Qinglong Village. After all, with the leader of Yudu coming forward, it was simply a god blocking and killing God, and a Buddha blocking and killing Buddha, Li Jingui's father didn't make much waves at all, and he was drowned in the raging sea.
However, as soon as Zeng Cheng returned to Qinglong Village, a girl came to the door. Zeng Cheng originally didn't plan to see her, but a token in her hand made Zeng Cheng have to see her. Because that token was given to her by him when he was separated from Lin Qingxuan in Qinglong Mountain.
Now, someone came to the door with a token, and Zeng Cheng couldn't avoid it.
It was precisely because of this meeting that Zeng Cheng's trip to Shennongjia was born.
………………
The primeval forest area of Shennongjia is a forbidden area for ordinary people, and almost all the people who enter and exit here are martial artists, and ordinary martial artists dare not enter casually, even if they have good strength, they need to enter in groups, because this Shennongjia is not an ordinary mountain range, but in this mountain range, there are countless fierce beasts. Some people even say that there are even legendary monsters here, but of course, this is just a legend and has not been confirmed.
The people who enter this Shennongjia primeval forest area have only one purpose, that is, to hunt some special beasts and find some elixirs for refining pills, which are all expensive things.
Because of the special geographical climate, the plant resources of Shennongjia are very rich, and 3183 species of higher vascular plants in 872 genera and 199 families have been preliminarily identified, and a total of 927 species of fungi and lichens have been preliminarily identified. Among them, there are 76 species of national key protected plants, such as dove tree, light leaf dove tree, incense tree, water green tree, fragrant fruit tree, etc.; There are 42 species of endemic plants in Shennongjia and western Hubei Province, such as poplar and apricot. There are more than 1,800 kinds of medicinal plants, and it is well-known as a "natural medicine garden".
The animal resources of Shennongjia are also extremely rich, with 493 species of vertebrates, including 75 species of mammals of 7 orders, 22 families, 308 species of birds, 16 orders, 48 families, 40 species, 27 genera, 27 genera, 2 orders, 23 genera, 7 families, amphibians, 2 orders, 7 families, and 47 species, 10 families, 47 genera. Shennongjia contains abundant insect resources, with 4143 species of 28 orders, 157 families. There are 73 species of wild animals under national key protection. In addition, more than 30 kinds of albino animals have been discovered, such as white forest musk deer, white serow, white snake, white bear, etc.
These precious animals and plants, for ordinary people, do not dare to covet them, but for some warriors, secular laws do not form much of a deterrent to them, so many warriors enter poaching. For those special animals, if they are caught, there are also many people who buy them, mainly some young masters, who will buy them as a prominent pet, in short, the price of a special animal is definitely not low.
However, in the primeval forest area, it is very rare to see these special protected animals, and there will not be many demon beasts, but if you are unlucky and encounter a demon beast, it will be a big trouble, an adult demon beast, even if it is an innate peak martial artist of the ninth layer of qi refining, it is difficult to do anything, under the Ning Yuan Realm, it is completely only the share of death, and the ability to protect itself will not be there.
All the people who entered the Shennongjia primeval forest area were small groups of five or eight, and there were also large mercenary groups of dozens or hundreds of people.
In the mountains, in addition to paying attention to fierce beasts and demon beasts, people who often move in the mountains naturally know that the most important thing to pay attention to is sometimes from some mercenary groups, and some mercenary groups directly return to some small teams, and it is not uncommon to kill people and seize things.
Every autumn, is the most lively season in the Shennongjia Mountains, after the growth of spring and summer, enter the Shennongjia Mountains in autumn, the harvest of the elixir will naturally not be less, if you are lucky, you can also meet some rare animals that come out to forage, catch a few, it is also a lot of income.
………………
The Shennongjia Mountains at the end of September can be said to be the most lively period, a large number of small teams and mercenary groups poured into it, carrying out gold rush trips, and sometimes for the competition for elixir, several teams fought each other, which can also be seen often.
On a cliff, there are a lot of warriors gathered, most of them are in strong costumes, and they should all be warriors who have entered the Shennongjia Mountains to pan for gold.
"It is said that a month ago, the Demon Dao Fire Spirit Son died in the hands of the Wudang Sect Elder Bai Mei and Chu Mingyue, and fell off this cliff, but unfortunately we can't go down, this Fire Spirit Son should have gained a lot."
"This cliff is thick with fog all year round, and if we can go down, it won't be our turn."
"Also, I didn't expect Huo Lingzi to die like this, and he actually provoked the Wudang faction."
"The Wudang faction is not easy to mess with, this is the territory of the Wudang faction, Huo Lingzi is also looking for his own death, and he actually robbed things with the Wudang faction, it is really a man who dies for money, and the bird dies for food."
"That's a peerless martial arts true yuan technique that shocks the martial arts, if I encounter it, I can't bear it."
"What if you meet it, you little second-rate martial artist, you want to die."
"Forget it, let's disperse, if there is a harvest here, it will have been taken away by others a long time ago, or go to the neighborhood to see if there is any elixir, this time find more elixir, buy a good price, that Huanghualou has recently come to a superb product, that figure is bumpy and convex, and the eyes can fascinate people, and it is to the bones."
"I've seen it, that big ass is round and straight, I want to fuck her once when I see it, even if it's a few years less, it's worth it."
"You hungry tiger, hahahaha."
……
A few laughs erupted from the cliff, and then everyone dispersed. But they didn't know that under this cliff, there was a person who was cultivating the peerless martial arts true yuan technique in their mouths.
Four days ago, when Zeng Cheng came to the depths of this Shennongjia, he found that two masters were chasing and killing an old man. After the three of them fought on this cliff, the old man who was chased and killed knew that there was no chance of being spared, and jumped off the cliff.
The two masters who chased and killed the old man, facing this cliff hundreds of meters high, also looked at the cliff and sighed, and finally left helplessly.
And after the two left, Zeng Cheng came to the bottom of this cliff. For others, it is tantamount to a dangerous cliff, but Zeng Cheng is like walking on the ground.
Zeng Cheng, who had already cultivated the Qi Alchemy Technique to the tenth layer, although he could not fly to the sky yet, he was a cultivator after all, and he had some magical means.
When Zeng Cheng came to the bottom of the cliff, he found that the old man who was being chased and killed, that is, the Demon Dao Fire Spirit Zi that the people just said had been thrown to death. Zeng Cheng held the idea of the deceased and buried it.
Of course, some of the old man's relics also fell into Zeng Cheng's hands.
For the rest of the bits and pieces, Zeng Cheng didn't care at all, but the things that caused the old man to be hunted down and killed made Zeng Cheng a little moved.
Now although Zeng Cheng has condensed a trace of true yuan, he is not yet a real cultivator, and he basically can't use the methods of a cultivator. This has caused the current Zeng Cheng to be very embarrassed, he has no strength, but there are not many who can give full play.
But the true yuan technique on the old man's body is very suitable for the current Zeng Cheng. In fact, this True Yuan Technique is the highest pursuit of the masters of the Condensing Yuan Realm, and it can exert the power of a wisp of True Yuan that they have condensed to the limit.
Thinking that there was still some time before the purpose of his trip, Zeng Cheng began to cultivate without hesitation.
In this way, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Zeng Cheng stood quietly, his white shirt was windless, and a faint aura spread around him, and in the surrounding area, a piece of grass lowered his head and rippled outward, as if a breeze was blowing.
After a while, Zeng Cheng exhaled slowly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then suddenly opened, and there seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes, and suddenly the aura around his body surged, and a strong momentum suddenly spread out.
At the same time, the handprint in Zeng Cheng's hand was formed, and the true yuan in his right hand suddenly condensed into a golden long knife, and the blade was strung with a magical light, and a fierce momentum spread from the blade.
The golden broadsword condensed out, and suddenly the surrounding space grass was like a violent wind crushing down, and the grass rippled violently.
"True Yuan Technique, go." Zeng Cheng snorted lightly, the handprint in his hand changed, the golden big knife came out of his hand, the blade slashed through the void, and the surrounding air was squeezed out of a sharp sound of breaking wind.
With the change of Zeng Cheng's handprint, this golden big knife actually kept cutting through the void in the void, and every time the knife was slashed, it would cause the space to vibrate, and the sound of a sonic boom was produced in the space with a roar.
