For Mr. Chen and his wife, Zhang and his son, and all the others, what makes them ecstatic the most is the strong heaven and earth vitality here. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Where have they ever seen such a strong vitality? The vitality in the pyramid is simply the difference between a creek and the sea compared to here, let alone other places.

"What a holy place for cultivation! Xiao Yan, why is the vitality here so strong? Zhang was obviously puzzled.

"I'm not sure, but I guess it has something to do with the craters of Changbai Mountain, because I've probed, and the closer you get to those craters, the more intense the vitality becomes. In addition, the hot springs that gush out from the ground are very energetic. ”

"According to what you say, could it be that the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi here mainly comes from the underground? Why? According to ancient books, the vitality of heaven and earth should come from all things in heaven and earth, such as mountains, rivers, sunshine, rain and dew, how can it come from the depths of the earth? ”

"I suspect that mountains, rivers, sunshine, rain and dew, and even all things in heaven and earth all contain the vitality of heaven and earth, and these heaven and earth vitality may automatically gather deep underground until the volcano and hot springs bring them back to the surface, so that the crater and hot springs are rich in vitality."

"Xiao Yan, listening to you say this, I have a feeling of being stunned, so what do you say is the vitality of this heaven and earth?"

Hearing this, Mr. Chen also interjected, and then he said: "I heard that volcanic magma and hot spring water have strong radioactivity, could the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi be radiation?" ”

Mr. Chen's words immediately aroused the interest of the reporter Zhou, because they knew many strange things because of their work, such as the blazing crater under the sea, and the variety of biological species would be abnormally large; In the years after the nuclear explosion, the growth of plants will be very rapid, and so on, if what Mr. Chen said is true, then the above strange phenomena are completely reasonable.

"Vitality is radiation? What you said also makes sense, radiation should be a very rich vitality, a hundred times richer than the vitality emitted by ordinary creatures, but I think it is also correct that the ancient books say that everything has vitality, and the vitality should be a certain kind of information energy, but no one knows what the vitality is. ”

Although in the end, it was still impossible to determine what the vitality was, but after this discussion, Mr. and Mrs. Chen and reporter Zhou became more and more miraculous about the vitality of heaven and earth, and when they knew that the rich vitality was extremely beneficial to cultivation, they meditated on the spot one after another, and under the guidance of Chinese medicine Zhang, they exhaled their luck.

Zhu Yan and Chen Lan did not meditate and cultivate together, Zhu Yan was busy moving the supplies to that cave, there were many rainy days on Changbai Mountain, they had to hide food and other items before the rainy day came, and that cave was the right place. Chen Lan, on the other hand, went around with the crow to explore the situation in the valley one by one.

An hour later, the people who had been meditating and cultivating had finally finished their work. During this hour of cultivation, almost everyone felt the air flow walking in their bodies, and even the heat sensation came out, which can be described as divine speed for those who have just started cultivating.

Chen Lan hadn't come back yet, this U-shaped valley was quite large, at least four or five hundred meters wide and several kilometers long, enough for her to explore for a while.

Zhu Yan wasn't worried about what danger Chen Lan would have, after all, he knew the abilities of the crows, and they had telepathy, so he would know about it as soon as something happened. The biggest possibility is that the flowers and green grass everywhere, the water is clear and the stones are beautiful, which makes her nostalgic and forgetful, this is not telepathetic Chen Lan is "touching flowers and grass" there.

Hearing Zhu Yan say this, Reporter Zhou and they even wanted to take a look. That's fine, after all, they are going to live here for a long time, and learning more about the environment will also help them live in the future.

So, under the leadership of Zhu Yan, the group visited this long and narrow valley with great interest, and it happened that the direction they walked was where the cave was located. Half a small field later, they came to the red maple forest in front of the cave, Chen Lan was in the stream next to the red maple forest, and they soon saw the cave as well.

When everyone saw the steamy hot springs, they were all surprised and jumped, and many of them came out of the seaside village for the first time to see the hot springs. Feeling the selfless gift of nature, people's originally restless hearts were magically calmed down, even if they lived in seclusion for the rest of their lives, they were willing.

Mr. Chen and Mr. Zhang were even more overjoyed, because their keen perception told them that this was not only a hot spring to bathe, but also an inexhaustible source of vitality! They even believed that as long as they cultivated by this hot spring for decades, they might really be able to cultivate an immortal body!

The two stone rooms next to the hot spring also surprised everyone, they didn't expect that this isolated place had actually been inhabited, and Mr. Chen and Chinese medicine Zhang were shocked by the stone wall cut like a knife. What a profound cultivation this requires, and it is conceivable that the person who lived in seclusion here back then was by no means just an ordinary cultivator.

The supplies brought this time were piled up in the middle room, which used to be used as an altar, almost half of the room was filled.

After a while, Chen Lan also returned, and the news she brought back was even more exciting, there are many resources in this valley, including various ingredients, medicinal herbs, and a large number of wood and stones, it seems that life here is not so difficult.

On the edge of the cliff on the west side, she found a lot of charcoal, buried with sand and gravel, like a long strip of coal, which is the famous charcoal wood of Changbai Mountain, and the locals call them divine charcoal.

It is said that a massive volcanic eruption 2,000 years ago instantly burned the dense surrounding forest into charcoal, which was then quickly buried in the magma sandstone, and later formed this unique charred wood. This charred wood is visible under the cliff, and it seems that the entire soil layer is covered with charcoal. Now, they will have no problem heating and lighting a fire.

In addition, she went out along the U-shaped valley and found that in addition to the vigorous growth of trees in the valley for several kilometers, precious medicinal herbs were also everywhere. There are wild ginseng, rhodiola, grass and other special precious medicinal materials, as well as spiny ginseng, codonopsis, ganoderma lucidum, astragalus, fritillary, schisandra and so on There are hundreds of kinds of medicinal materials.

Edible wild vegetables, wild mushrooms, and wild mountain fruits are even more varied, and they can be picked up at hand. Such abundant natural resources, even if they didn't bring any supplies, were enough for a dozen of them to live for a year and a half.

If you want to cultivate the land, the natural conditions here are also excellent enough, I am afraid that it is no worse than the fertile land of the southern plains. The volcanic ash of the year and the decaying of the dead branches and leaves over the years make the soil soft and fertile. In addition, the hot spring water in the creek flows, and there is both water and heat, and as long as you cut down some of the trees in the valley, you can create a large area of fertile land everywhere.

With such good natural conditions, Reporter Zhou and they are obviously very moved, and they are considering whether to settle here for the rest of their lives. When everything was ready, they decided to bring their families with them, whether they were willing to cultivate together or not, it was better to live a simple and happy life than outside.

In addition to these, Chen Lan also found a lot of strange rocks in the valley, these rocks were even lighter than wood in his hand, and when he looked closely, he saw that their surfaces were covered with large and small holes, like a hornet's nest.

Later, after some research by reporter Zhou, they believed that these stones were the famous pumice stones of Changbai Mountain, which were also left during the volcanic eruption that year. It is said that such pumice stones are popular in the construction market because they are light and have good thermal insulation properties. If this is the case, the building materials for building a house in the future will be almost half solved.

Everything else in this valley is fine, but it is too inconvenient to get in and out of the outside world, and it would be great if everything was self-sufficient. There is fertile land, they grow some food, raise some mushrooms or something, and there is not much problem with food.

The only thing to consider is housing, and it is okay to live in a thatched hut or something for a short time, but you have to build a solid house for a long time. It is unlikely that like those hermits in Zhongnan Mountain, let the villagers bring in cement and other building materials. And it seems that it is not necessary to transport it yourself, can you make cement or find alternative materials according to local conditions?

Zhu Yan learned from the book that it is not impossible to make cement here, there are all raw materials in the volcanic slag, but this process is too troublesome! You know, they're not here to do mineral development, there's no need to build a cement plant!

Another easy way is to find some limestone and bake it with charred wood for a while, and you can also bake baby lime. In contrast, Zhu Yan prefers this method.

Everyone sat on the floor by the hot spring, and everyone talked about their own ideas. Especially the weekly reporters, they talked more and more specifically, and talked about almost all aspects of life. If they were following those ordinary cultivators, they would definitely be reprimanded, since they were cultivators, why did they still have so much in their hearts?

But Zhu Yan and Zhang Zhongyi didn't say much, because in their opinion, there was no love and no sense of responsibility in their hearts, so what was the use of practicing no matter how powerful they were?

Reporter Zhou: They are different from those ascetics, who want to bring their families with them, so they naturally have to think more about their families. It doesn't have to be like modern city life, but you have to minimize the troubles in your life, right? Otherwise, you won't be able to spend all day long for the livelihood of the whole family!

After some discussion, it was finally decided that the soldiers would divide into two routes, one side would get rocks to build houses, and the other side would cultivate land and farm land, so as to settle down here as soon as possible.

Without explosives and mountain-opening equipment, mining stone is the most difficult thing, Zhu Yan suddenly remembered the sword at the bottom of the hot spring pool that had not yet been set out, so he and Chen Lan took the initiative to take over this task.

On the matter of reclamation, however, there is a divergence of opinions. Some people believe that the valley should be cut down to create patches of fertile land that can be easily irrigated. Others believe that only cultivating fields in areas with less trees can minimize the number of trees cut down, even though the dispersion of the fields is not conducive to irrigation.

Zhu Yan agrees with the second plan, after all, everyone is not here to engage in large-scale production, as long as they can support themselves, and the trouble is nothing at all, anyway, while cultivating the mind, the body also needs to be constantly exercised. The ancients said: Only when the body becomes stronger, can it carry a strong soul, and can its own cultivation beat the annual rings of the years.

Zhu Yan finally persuaded everyone, at least that's it for now, there will be more people in the future, so let's talk about it.

After the plan was decided, everyone felt a little hungry. It turned out that it was past lunch time, as the saying goes, "I don't know when I am in the mountains, and it has been half a year in the world." ”

(Hehe, I still haven't finished writing about the construction of the home, so I'll continue to write it tomorrow.) Go to sleep first, good night!)
