Chapter 252 A hole in a cave

Granny Xia pouted on the side, "It's all said to be so high-sounding, aren't they all eating happily today?" ”

Yang Gaotang scratched his head with a little embarrassment, but Jiang Xian Ling laughed unconcernedly, "Granny Xia's words are true, but for us hunters, the first thing we need to ensure is the problem of stomach food and clothing." And about the roe deer, most of the extermination is deliberately released by our hunters, and there is a lot of official coercion in this! In fact, there are not many roe deer in the wild, of course, for the royal hunting grounds. The hunting I mentioned earlier only refers to a part of the mountainous area, most of the Qinling Mountains have been closed by the imperial court, leaving us with more and more narrow living space! ”

As a latecomer, Li Zhi is a little disapproving, although it is beyond reproach to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, but those who have a little foresight in power also know the serious consequences of destroying the ecological balance, of course, whether the royal hunting ground is for the royal family and nobles or really have this heart is another matter, the right to speak is in the hands of others is the unchanging fact.

How to adapt to the human environment of survival of the fittest is actually consistent with the law of survival of the good and the inferior in nature.

"Can you bear the endowment of the mountains? As far as I know, it is also monthly convergence. Sun Chengyi asked.

"Orion's tax can be replaced by fur, but there is not much, after all, the imperial court also knows that Orion is very particular, and it is basically enough to have food and clothing, and it will not fight a lot at once. Just as we have to worship God before we go up to the mountain, according to the ancient precepts, we should not hunt indiscriminately without limit. ”

"In winter, the snow covers the mountains, the animals hibernate, and the hunters have no to fight; In the spring, everything recovers, and hunting is strictly prohibited, and the hunters in the mountains are really bitter! Sun Chengyi sighed.

"So we should pay attention to other livelihoods, and only my grandfather's county order can't solve the substantive problems. The Jiang family's traditional hunting can not be lost, on this basis, participate in more handicraft manufacturing, and I Zhengqing Wenqitang team, you can quickly gain a firm foothold in this industry, so as to lay a solid foundation for development, it is still very necessary! ”

Li Zhi was about to end this slightly heavy topic, and then said, "Grandpa, before I leave, I will send someone to call a carriage and horse from the city, there is a large demand for wild fruits in the nearby mountains and forests, and the original intention is to let the Jiang family compound learn to make some fruit wine, but if you want to come and see the market, after all, you will need a large number of high-quality wine cellars, and the cost of money is amazing!" I found someone to go to Fengyang to open a liquor shop, which also has an exclusive high-grade liquor formula, and when our Jiang family foundation is solid, and Ningxia Tanyang Road is smooth, we can also open a distillery here. ”

"Yes, you can't eat a big fat man in one bite, you still need to take your time in everything, just cooperating with Zhengqing Wenqitang, our Jiang family has already picked up a big bargain."

"It's all a matter of benefiting both parties, and it's not about who gets cheap from whom! Grandpa, I've drunk a little too much, and I'm going to rest early. ”

"It's not up to you, the room is laid out?"

Yu Ran answered, "I have already cleaned it up, and my aunt will personally lead someone to arrange it, so I will help him go back to rest first?" ”

"We'll go too!" Pang Ti picked up Qingqi and turned to the county lord of Yuanwan, "Sister Yuanwan, wait a minute, settle Brother Zhengwen, and we'll come back!" ”

Yang Gaotang stood up and made way of the aisle, and when Li Zhi passed by, he reminded in a meaningful whisper, "Bring some water up, you will be thirsty when you wake up, and you will save trouble if you are fully prepared!" ”

Li Zhi and his wife's bedroom is in the innermost part of the second floor of the square building, and the window is a remote corner.

Different from the palace-style earthen walled building, this special memorial and guest house square building is all wooden structure, and the second floor is erected with cedar wood on the outside, which looks like the dry column style dwellings in some places in southern China.

Yu Ran chose the largest bedroom for herself, and the large plank bed was her main target, and for this choice, she did not invite the women of the Jiang family to cover their mouths and steal fun.

Although it is not as comfortable as its own home, it is also neat and dry, and the sealing is also excellent.

"Brother Zhengwen, my uncle gave you a whole sheepskin, and it is a finished brown leather after dehairing, retanning, and dyeing, and I want to make you a big hide!" Yu Ran suddenly remembered.

"Haha, then I'll have to design it myself, and I'd better wear it before I leave! By the way, if you have a lot of leather, you can also make me a pair of leather trousers with a large crotch for riding, preferably with a pair of high riding boots! ”

"What do you think this is?" Yu Ran pursed her lips, bent down and pulled out a rattan box from under the bed, and called, one large, three small, and four pairs of leather boots inside.

"This is a gift from the Ningxia herdsman, because the gems on it are all real materials, the uncles are reluctant to wear them, and when they saw that the three of us had the right foot size, they simply gave it to us!"

It was a round-toed bootie made of colored leather, inlaid with jewels, and beautifully decorated with towering shoes, a typical Huhua style, which was not uncommon in Chang'an City.

And the pair of men's square-toe boots are not so fancy, but the same yak leather, inside is a layer of beach sheep two fur bonding, this kind of leather due to the cold ecological conditions, coarse, hard-working, good at walking steep slopes, dangerous roads, snow-capped swamps, Li Yi saw it and liked it.

"Haha, it looks cute!" Pang Qi had already supported Li Zhi with one hand and untied his shoes with the other, and Yuran handed over the bench next to him, Li Zhi sat down and put her on his lap to help.

"Men wear square-toed shoes, which means that masculinity comes from the sky, and the sky is round; Women wear round-toed shoes, which means gentle and obedient to their husbands, but I didn't expect that these things are also paid attention to outside the mouth! Qingqi said strangely.

"Not really!" Yu Ran explained, "In the Tang Palace, we will find a leather craftsman there for customized leather boots, which are specially made for our mouths." Only the text brother's pair is a local thing, and it is said that it will not be flawed if you wear it for a few years! ”

Li Yiyi changed it to the third girl, and praised it in his mouth, "It seems that we are also going to open a shoe-making business, a good pair of shoes will improve the quality of clothing by three points!" ”

"It's better to hand it over to the Jiang family, our Eastern Mountains only produce some brocade, felt, satin and other fabrics." Qingqi obviously had already calculated.

"Well, before leaving, I left some patterns, and the gold, silver, and gemstone pendants are provided separately!" Li Zhi was still looking down at his shoes, obviously very satisfied.

"You should be careful tonight, the mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is good to prepare a torch for emergency!"

"Sister Qingqi, Brother Zhengwen doesn't need it, his true qi is not much worse than a sunny day!" Pang Qi has true qi in his body and knows the benefits.

"Then you remember to be careful, when I come back, I will leave a basin of water in the house, wash my feet before going to bed, don't smoke us!"

After chattering for a while, the three girls left together, Li Zhi changed his original shoes, turned off the lights, and explored for a while before quietly jumping down from the window.

When I came to the second hill that Jiang Han said, I went a few miles to the west, and sure enough, I saw a towering horse-shaped strange stone, and when I turned around, it was a bush, and the barren grass was almost as tall as a person.

Tang Dao opened the road, all the way through, only to see a secluded canyon, the cool breeze does not know where to blow from, in the early autumn, it is the middle of the night, has felt the muscles and bones are cool.

In the breeze, the flowers and plants of various colors trembled, and a stream only a foot wide flowed through the low-lying place.

Going deeper, I saw the green hillside, and the only umbrella-shaped thick flat-topped pine stood there, but I didn't see the so-called Lan Qi that Jiang Shan said.

Climbing in front of the pine tree, Li Zhi carefully inspected the circle and found nothing, so he simply sat down and probed out his true qi perception.

It didn't take long for him to feel a trace of aura faintly in the depths, and in excitement, he turned over and stood up and walked quickly.

At the bend of the canyon terrain, the ground mountain cracked a gap several zhang wide, Li Zhi ran the true qi, and the qi was able to be crossed, and a steep slope could be seen sloping up. The cliffs on both sides are like cutting, the strange stones are vertical and horizontal, all are dangerously towering upward, like the minister holding the court wat when he sees the emperor.

Countless times of turning back and circumambulation, until the end of the rock loop, there is a maple forest appeared, that faint trace of aura is overflowing from this, but it is dyed by the forest, if you don't concentrate on perception, it is almost impossible to check.

Through the thick deciduous maple forest, there is a deep ditch in front of Li Zhi, the limestone shape of the two walls in the ditch is peculiar, the bottom of the ditch is oblique downward, and the sound of hidden water is endless.

He carefully went down to the bottom of the ditch, along the faint aura all the way deep, unconsciously walked into a natural cave in the belly of the mountain, the water droplets on the top of the cave hung like pearls, the slightest water vapor crystal clear, reflecting the magnificent scenery in the cave.

This is the world of strange stones, a piece of boulders of more than two meters, constituting a strange natural landscape, there are several small holes in the hole along the way to extend inward, unfathomable, but because it is not the place where the aura comes from, Li Yi will ignore it.

In this way, one foot deeper, one foot shallow, slowly moving forward in the uneven ditch, it actually took more than an hour. As the splashing sound of the water gets louder and louder, until it is deafening, a clear stream slumps and jumps, forming a number of small underground waterfalls in the strange rocks, the sound is like a wave, and it is terrifying.

The curiosity psychology made Li Zhi speed up his progress, and the boulders on both sides of the majestic mountain were still intertwined, like a giant beast on the side, which added a bit of mystery to the depths of the quiet cave and caused him to infinitely reverie.

The aura was not splashed with water droplets by the waterfall, diluted with the rich water vapor, but became clearer, and led him to a mountain crevice along the source, about 50 meters long, and could only be walked alone.

Li Zhi rubbed shoulders with the two walls, and entered the deeper part of the giant crack to be more cool and extremely frozen, but another cave appeared, and mottled sedimentation and erosion traces appeared on the rock surface of the two walls, such as murals, like cliff carvings, some were shaped like birds and animals, some were like trees and flowers, and some were like clouds and clouds like waves, and they were beautiful and beautiful, which increased the mystery of this wonder.

Flowing water in the rocks, there are passages zigzag in the strange rocks, but there is no peak and loop in his fantasy, but is blocked by a cliff, there are countless natural holes left on the cliff, and the aura overflows down the wall from the upper end.

The cliff is a kind of red rock formation, the lithology is relatively brittle, Li Zhi tried to pick it with his fingers, the rock formation was affected by the uneven pressure, and it broke slightly, but it sounded huge to him, which made him desperate.

After turning around, he didn't see anything else to climb, and finally returned to the distance, thinking for a long time, remembering the ancient short dagger taken from Pang Qi, Li Zhi took it out and plunged it into a fracture, but he snorted and entered without a wall, leaving only the handle of the knife exposed.

There were still natural holes in the cliff, and the lowest part was more than a zhang high, he pulled out a short dagger, tried to insert it at the highest point of the straight arm, and tried to grasp the wall with his body suspended in the air, and let his body climb up as soon as he made a strong arm.

With the other hand, he barely grasped a hole, slowly pulled out the short dagger, and then inserted the pull-up to the highest point, and actually climbed up slowly.

It's just that every time the blade is inserted, tiny cracks are created, and under the dissolution and erosion of flowing water for many years, it gradually expands and prolongs over time, and it does not allow him to take a moment of respite.

So as he continued to climb, the shale with a soft texture at the bottom of the rock formation behind him was also constantly breaking and sliding off piece by piece, hitting the ground with a small sound, but it was very terrifying in Li Zhiwenzhi.
