The Shennong Mountain in the local population is the famous Shennongjia in later generations, it has a huge area, connecting Sichuan in the west, Fang County and Zhushan two counties in the north, Jingchu in the south, it is a huge mountain group with 3,000 square kilometers. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Among them, the forest is dense, there are many inaccessible places, and they are so primitive that they can't be more primitive.

Even in the later republic, it was a first-class dangerous place, and many international friends came from far and wide to take risks. In the Ming Dynasty, it was not impossible to go deep into it, but the danger naturally could not be avoided.

A group of ten people, each carrying a huge bag, set off from Liujia Village, all the way over the eagle's beak cliff, and explored the depths of the back mountain.

Spring has arrived, everything has come back to life, and the previously depressed woods are now green, and the spreading climbing plants and the tall trees and low shrubs are mixed together, blocking the rugged mountain road one after another.

More than ten miles into the mountain, although it already belongs to the category of Shennongjia, you can also see the traces of people, the place where the mountains and rivers are connected at the foot of the mountain, the flat terraced fields are sorted out, the seedlings that have just been planted are flushed with a touch of watery green, the muddy water full of furrows is slightly white under the irradiation of the morning sun, and the low farmers are like the boxes at the foot of the mountain.

The morning light suddenly let go, wisps of cooking smoke rose up, looking down from the top of the mountain, the scenery was beautiful, simple and picturesque.

"Alright, take a break, let's have something to eat!" Liu Yuanshan waved his hand, the team stopped, found a fairly flat place on the top of the nearby mountain, the three of them set up a sentry, and the rest of the people gathered their luggage and began to make a fire.

The whole team is divided into three parts, one with three people scattered in front of them to explore the way, each of them not only carrying a lot of luggage, but also holding a bow and arrow in his hand, so as to respond in time when encountering a dangerous situation; Bian Keng led three people in the back, each holding a weapon in his hand, to protect the whole team from the beasts.

As for the middle, there are only two people, Edamame and Liu Yuanshan, Liu Yuanshan always holds the flintlock pistol in his hand, and Edamame carries him bullets and gunpowder next to him for him to use at any time.

Although the gunpowder is not good, the shooting distance of a shot is only within 100 meters, which is enough to deal with large carnivores, and a small brown bear was encountered in the middle of the road before, when everyone was slightly panicked, Liu Yuanshan held the gun with a face that was not red and his heart was not beating, and he shot the brown bear with one shot.

The brown bear didn't die, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, and even rolled down the hillside.

As for the rest of the small animals, there are a few people who are led by them, and they basically don't pose any threat, but have become their meals, such as now, Bian Keng has a large string of pheasants, hares and the like in the back.

Cooking on the fire in the morning is indispensable for a delicious porridge with meat.

After eating, he picked up the homemade finger north and pointed it in the direction, and then marked the distance and location on the map a little, and Liu Yuanshan continued to walk with the people.

The further you go, the more rugged the mountain road becomes, and the people gradually become scarce, or even none, and along with the people along the way, there are smaller paths, and finally, two days later, you reach the depths of the mountains.

The ground is covered with thorns, all kinds of vines and plants are blocked, the grass and trees are towering, the cries of strange birds resound throughout the forest, and wild flowers are everywhere, many have never seen before, exuding a strange fragrance. If he hadn't accurately known that he was in the Ming Dynasty four hundred years ago, Liu Yuanshan would have thought that he had come to another world.

Shennongjia is indeed worthy of its name!

"Reverse the position back and forth, one person with someone will be behind, and Bian Keng will let you go to the front to open the way!" The situation is the opposite of before, there are no roads, there are many fewer beasts, and the biggest enemies have become these vines that stand in the way.

The four of Bian Keng carried swords and other weapons in their hands, and it was just right to cut the thorn branches.

Walking and walking, after walking through a large canyon, I came across a small meandering river, opposite the river was a stony smooth slope, the whole slope not only had no grass, but also almost no mud, that is, a large piece of rock was exposed, some red, red with yellowish purple.

"Go and see, it could be a useful ore!"

Along the way, as long as they encounter strange stones or ores, everyone will invariably run over to see if it is useful for themselves, of course, the criterion for distinguishing useful and useless is naturally the book in Liu Yuanshan's hand.

Liu Yuanshan took people, all the way around the river, on the smooth stone slope, after carefully observing, but he had little geological experience, he didn't know what kind of stone it was, the steel drill with the barrel in his hand casually probed into the stone, "ding" sounded a few times, and a few sparks suddenly popped out of the contact part between the stone and the steel drill.

"It's ......"

Liu Yuanshan put the flintlock pistol on the ground, held the steel drill with both hands, pressed it hard against the stone, and then dragged a distance of one meter.

"It's, flint!" Liu Yuanshan shouted happily.

Such a large piece of high-quality flint is really rare, and, in terms of quality, it should be much better than the flint used before, not to mention anything else, just say that the flintlock pistol, which is used by the local people to fire the flint, sometimes the gun is not strong enough, and it can't even ignite the gunpowder, and it has to pull the trigger for the second time to re-fire.

That kind of flint is obviously an inferior product, but the current flint is different, and it looks like a high-quality flint.

In the future, there are more guns to do, and the amount of flint is also large, since there are high-quality flint mines here, it is not too far from the hometown, and the artificial development is basically enough.

"Remember this place, one, you bring the drawings, I'll mark them, this thing will be of great use to us!" Liu Yuanshan took the map and said to one while marking.

One is the route of the memory of the effort.

The purpose of coming out this time is to find minerals, especially sulfur ore, not to dig it right now, and now it is impossible to dig it out immediately and carry it on your back, otherwise there will be so much exploration in the future, wouldn't you be tired to death?

After checking the geographical location repeatedly, combined with the map drawn by the divine book, Liu Yuanshan marked the flint mine, looked at the sky, and said: "There is still an hour until the evening, let's hurry up, it is best to meet a better place to sleep." ”

After saying that, he waved his hand, led everyone down from the huge rock, and when he came to the river, he suddenly paused, raised his right hand high and made a stop movement, turned his head and put his index finger to his lips towards everyone, and shh

Someone!

Liu Yuanshan lay on the ground, and clearly saw the dense forest on the other side of the river, a white-clothed figure swayed left and right, like a dancing immortal.

Don't?

Is there someone living in seclusion in this deep mountain and old forest? (To be continued.) )
