Chapter 4 Searching for Immortals in the Mountains
In the morning of Shennongjia in early spring, surrounded by fog, after more than an hour's drive, Jin Haotian came to this magical place, holding the fried dough sticks and soy milk he just bought.
The snacks in F County are not much better than those in big cities, and Jiangcheng, the central city of E Province, has a snack street, which brings together the characteristics of various ethnic groups in the Jianghan River Basin and adds a wonder to the beautiful Jiangcheng.
Shennongjia this nature reserve is naturally not left behind, delicious delicacies and local specialties are fragrant in the streets and alleys, as long as you have time to stop there, it is not difficult for you to fall in love with this place, Shennongjia is still a natural oxygen bar.
Shennongjia with deep fog provides people with fresh air, the natural landscape makes people feel refreshed, the highest peak of Shennongjia constitutes a beautiful skyline in the airspace of central China, like a ladder climbing the sky, telling a legend of Shennong's ancient Yan Emperor.
Jin Haotian came to the food wholesale department after breakfast, spent more than 1,000 to buy some hunger-resistant food, filled his backpack, the boss who saw it was strange, did this young man plan to eat this all the time, the boss is not good to ask the customer's **, pay the checkout and carry the human-shaped backpack, the passers-by who watched looked sideways, and Jin Haotian was embarrassed for a while, I can't tell you that I want to go into the mountains to be a savage!
If you really say that, maybe there are some emotionally rich aunts, who are flooded with love and won't let you go, and they have to say that you're not, then it's really a speechless ask the sky, who knows my heart!
Before entering the mountain, I called my parents to reassure them, took out my mobile phone and entered my home phone number on the button, and when I lost halfway, I didn't know when I would come out of the mountain!
If my parents can't get through to me, don't worry, there is no signal in the mountains, so I have to think of a better reason to reassure my parents and say the past.
Yes, I came to a talk bar and found a place inside, pushed open the aluminum alloy glass door and went in and closed the door.
Pick up the phone and dial the phone number at home, and after a few connecting sounds, the mother answers the phone, heed "which"
My heart warmed and replied, "Mom, it's me."
As soon as my mother heard my voice, she asked, "Why don't you use your phone?"
Jin Haotian replied, "The signal here is not good, and you may be looking for something to do here, it will take a while to go back, I forgot my bank card at home, put it in the bedside drawer and came here to find out, Mom, take it out when you clean up the room, if you are short of money at home, go and take it out, the password is six x you remember"
。
The mother said, "How can you forget such an important thing at home, do you have enough money with you, or let your father send it to you?"
。
I thought to myself, did I really forget it at home?
It's just in case of an accident, I said no, it won't take long to do things here, asked some irrelevant things and hung up the phone, and the phone came out of the amount of five yuan and five jiao for your call, thank you for using.
came out and paid the phone bill and came to a hardware store, ready to buy a self-defense paraphernalia, all locals are not so strict in security, picked a good looking pig killing utensils, and carried a personal backpack on his back The boss looked suspicious, thinking that this kid would not do something bad.
Looking at the boss's eyes, I was suspected again, too, you said that what bag you are carrying is not good, but it is impossible to be so big, it is impossible not to arouse suspicion, in order not to cause trouble, I put down the backpack, and said to myself that I was hungry and ate something after walking for so long, opened the zipper, took out a ham sausage, bit off the seal, and began to eat, watching the boss sweep over and look at the contents of the backpack, the stunned expression was very funny.
The boss has thought about a lot of possibilities, but he has not thought about a person carrying a bag of food, is he going to travel around the world on foot, the current youth is really incomprehensible, and he paid the money and walked away under the complicated eyes of the boss.
Jin Haotian plunged into the vast mountains, all the way was full of dangers, but fortunately he was bored when he was a child, he practiced a few hands with his brother surnamed in his own house, went out to work for many years and gained a lot of knowledge, and he has never been abandoned for so many years.
Walking into the jungle is to sleep with your eyes open, or you may wake up that day in the belly of some animal, my hometown in my father when he was young, at night can still hear the sound of wolf howling, once my aunt picked up pine in the mountain, but also saw that there are animals in the thatch pile quickly passed through it, and the thatch rattled and then did not dare to go up the mountain alone, the previous firewood stove in the countryside was large and deep, the fire power was strong, a lot of firewood was wasted, and there were many people on the mountain and there were no animals outside, They all perch deeper.
When I was a child, I heard my grandfather tell me about a python, saying that in one night a young man who missed the countryside slept in the wild, and when he woke up, he found that he was itchy, touching his ears and nose with his hands as if it was melting, and his eyes couldn't see anything, and his whole body was ** with a fishy smell, this discovery was not trivial, the prime of life touched the waist of the other firewood knife and slashed wildly around, the python was in pain unbearable and rolled wildly, the firewood knife in the countryside was still very sharp, the knife was sharp and slashed through the snake's belly, and the prime finally saw a glimmer of light, At this time, the python belly was in a mess and was dying, the prime of life crawled out of the snake's belly, the eyes were blurred and could not see the surroundings clearly, along the mountain road to the village due to the injury was too serious two days later, people died two days later, after a few days, people followed the road to find the location, but unfortunately there was only a pile of broken bones and a long trace, people analyzed that the prime of life may be sucked into the abdomen by the python at night, so it was not dead, and woke up from the pain of the snake's gastric juice, only to have a later scene of making a big fuss about the snake's abdomen, and the python also became the belly of other animals.
Maybe it's the joke of the rural tea and dinner, which shows that the danger of the deep mountains can be seen in general, and the Shennongjia as a primeval forest can be imagined.
The biggest feature of the animals in Shennongjia is that they tend to be albinoid, and the first albino animal found in Shennongjia is the white bear.
In the summer of 1954, a medicine farmer in Shennongjia Tianjiashan Medicinal Material Plantation Farm accidentally caught a full-term white bear in the bear den when he was collecting medicine in the rapeseed forest, and was bought and raised by Zhongshan Park in Jiangcheng for visitors to watch.
This kind of white bear, the whole body white hair is like fine down, the neck and shoulder hair is short, the upper lip and nose are light red, the eyes are also red, the head is long and the tail is short, the ears are firm, the temperament is docile, it looks like a giant panda, it stands upright when it is happy, and sometimes imitates human movements, which is very cute.
The white bears in Shennongjia have been caught four or five, and the locals call it "mountain bear"
It generally walks uncertainly, lives for a long time in the arrow bamboo bush of the primeval forest above 1,500 meters above sea level, and feeds on wild fruit bamboo shoots and arrow bamboo leaves.
Its body shape is similar to that of a black bear, but its face is shorter than that of a black bear, but its vision is stronger than that of a black bear, and it does not have the habit of hibernating, hiding in the snow in search of food.
It looks like a giant panda, and the giant panda was called an "iron-eating beast" in ancient times
。
A long time ago called the tapir beast, in ancient times in my hometown, the villagers' copper locks, copper basins and copper coins are the food of the tapir beast, the villagers thought that the family had recruited thieves, only to find out later that it was the tapir beast to do, it is unbelievable to eat copper and iron, as early as in the ancient books there are many such records.
Fangling County beast said that the tapir tapir feeds on copper and iron, and the Han Dongfang Shuo according to the Classic of Mountains and Seas, this beast eats iron and copper, and does not eat other things.
Because of confusion.
Then he praised and said: Miao Zai his beast, born in the south.
Its name is tapir, and it is not iron.
The white bear in Shennongjia is similar to the panda, and the locals also call it "cat bear"
, and outsiders call it "Shennong White Bear"
。
At this time, Jin Haotian has been in the forest for more than half a month, he has long since lost the appearance when he first entered the mountain, his clothes are also scraped and tattered, looking at the backpack he is carrying is obviously a lot flattened, tired to find a safe cave to rest, when he is hungry, he eats some food and the food brought by it has bottomed out, and when he is thirsty, he drinks wildly in the mountain spring, and he has encountered a lot of dangers on the road.
Wangshan ran a dead horse, not to mention a person, every place close to the map had to go over to see, every time I was exhausted, I fell to the ground and rested for a while before continuing to find the next target.
The longer the time drags on in the primeval jungle, the more dangerous it is, after the changes of the earth, the reality of the landform is too different, and there is no high-definition satellite map It is even more difficult, the food is enough for two days, if you can't find Jin Haotian, you will have to experience the life of a savage, after a night's rest, Jin Haotian, who got up early in the morning, wiped his face with water from a bamboo tube, rinsed his bitter and dry mouth, and took a compressed biscuit and chewed it.
Looking back on the days of the past half a month, why is it that I am like this, a good life but I came here to suffer, looking at the lake sandwiched by the mountains, there is only one exit, here some small animals are beating lively, a scene of paradise, yesterday because it was dark did not find, I felt that it was safer here to find a place to sleep, now I can't help but break out in a cold sweat when I think about it, fortunately nothing happened, and the place where there is water in the forest is also the most dangerous place.
Walking to the lake and looking around, some small animals are also curiously looking at this outsider, as if to say who he is and how he came here, how he walks on two legs, and boldly runs to the feet to sniff, and when he walks with his feet, he will turn around and run around, and the animals are happy to live without worries and carefree.
The more I looked at it, the more I felt that this small valley had a familiar feeling, and I thought in my mind.
Suddenly, the map in my mind appeared compared to the place in front of me, isn't this the place I have been looking for for more than half a month?
Surrounded by tall mountains on all sides, I was thinking that there are peaks on all sides, and the road map will make me climb to the top of the mountain, it turns out that the mystery is in the valley below, and if I go up to the top of the mountain, it will be called crying without tears.
It's really hard to find nowhere to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!
Jin Haotian searched around the lake, but he didn't find a decent cave, there must be a secret place here, the general direction has been found, and the rest is just time.
