Chapter 19 Searching for Tea in the Mountains

Nie Ming didn't prepare a horse, because a horse was not a reliable partner in the mountains, but in order to quickly pass through the mountains, tea customers with financial resources would prepare horses on the road.

Needless to say, the Su family's financial resources, Nie Ming got two horses from the Su family as soon as he came to the road, although the locally bred horses are not as good as the war horses galloping freely on the grassland, but they also have their own advantages in mountain travel.

With the blessing of Nie Ming's superb riding skills, the two horses walked like flying, and they surpassed everyone very easily: "Come on, Nie Ming has taken a step first!" ”

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, the dust was flying, and the surrounding scenery quickly retreated behind him, and after an hour, Nie Ming gradually broke away from the living area of the townspeople and successfully came to the outer mountain of Wuyi Mountain.

It is very easy to tell if you have entered the outer mountain since Gofu, because you need to pass through a concave valley trail at the end of the trail.

As the local saying goes, after the pass, you are outside the mountain.

As the boundary of the Wuyi Mountains that have been developed for a long time, the coverage of the outer mountains extends widely, reaching dozens of miles away, and this is only the outermost part of the mountain range.

If you want to really step into the inner mountain, there is still a distance after passing through the outer mountain, because this distance of dozens of miles is a straight line distance, and after entering the outer mountain, the official road disappears, and what appears in front of Nie Ming is a large number of winding sheep intestine paths.

Although the road at this time was a little difficult, these two horses, who were accustomed to mountain life, could still move forward steadily, which made Nie Ming a little happy.

With their help, Nie Ming's progress was very gratifying, and he crossed several mountains and rivers with great ease.

The scenery here is very ordinary, because there are usually many people who go into the mountains to collect medicine and find tea, so the top grades in it have basically disappeared, and more places have been thoroughly developed, and now these places have tea trees that are growing well.

However, as Nie Ming went deeper, the traces of the tea trees gradually decreased, and the original trees increased, and the growth of the forest here was also very gratifying, so the fastest way to quickly pass through it was to fly.

Nie Ming tied the reins of the two horses to the tree on the side of the road, and then shot a cold firework into the air, which was a signal to notify the Su family to come and collect the horses, because horses were no longer a necessity on the way after.

After resting under the tree for a while, Nie Ming saw the Su family coming from afar, and at this time he had finished drinking and eating, so he immediately started the next step.

His purpose is very clear, after going to a few points where rare tea may appear, he will go straight to the core area, and where there is a chance to enter the mysterious landscape.

After making preparations, Nie Ming lifted his breath and threw himself up, and the whole person rose from the ground, kicked on the nearby tree trunk a few times, and then directly reached the treetops, and then began to fly over the tops of the trees.

Nie Ming's movements were very light, and he swept away a few feet away at the slightest mention, and he disappeared from the sight of the Su family's servants in just a few breaths.

Although the speed was extremely fast, the servants of the Su family, who had a good vision, were surprised to find that Nie Ming's wind breaking sound was extremely small.

The black clothes on his body are still the same, but the material reflects a strange deep purple in the sunlight. And the shoes on the soles of his feet were covered with hair, and I don't know what they were made of.

"If you want to work, you must first sharpen your tools, and that's true! The friends that the young master knows are really powerful. ”

No matter how good the light skills and the help of sharp weapons, Nie Ming arrived at Lufeng in just half a day.

Lufeng is towering like a cloud, and as the dividing line between the inner and outer mountains, another typical feature of Lufeng is that the plants are sparse and the species are distinct. As a typical lithologic mountain, there is a very precious tea tree that grows here, and its leaves can be made into a rare tea - iron arhat.

In Wuyi's tea, Tie Luohan is a very precious tea, Tie Luohan tea, which belongs to the oolong tea category, is mainly distributed in the rocky mountains in the mountains of Wuyi Mountain, and because of the characteristics of the species, it can only grow in the rock crevices.

The shape of the iron arhat is tightly knotted, the color is greenish brown and fresh, the soup color is orange and yellow after brewing, the leaves are red and green, and the typical leaves have the beauty of green leaves and red borders. Its finished products are mainly made by sunning, cooling, greening, frying, initial kneading, re-frying, re-kneading, water roasting, dusting, spreading, picking, re-baking, and re-picking, and making fire.

Although Lufeng is tall and steep, the rock wall on its body is very broken, and the crimson mountain is full of large and small cracks, which looks very terrible, and if you climb on it, you will be in danger of falling if you lose your footing.

However, in the face of the temptation of the iron arhat, whether it is a master of art, a bold tea picker, or a martial artist, he will not stop his steps.

According to the description in the book, Nie Ming began to run around the mountains to search, but because he was a newcomer, Ning had not found any high-quality tea trees, and he had no useful harvest after searching from the bottom up for a long time.

When Nie Ming was resting in a crack in the shade, Nie Ming suddenly had a flash of inspiration, he patted his thigh and said: "What I did is not right, what the book says is that Tie Luohan belongs to the rock tea species, and the characteristic of rock tea is that there is tea in rock rock, and there is no tea in non-rock!" Then a good quality tea tree should be located in the fissure facing the sun! ”

While thinking about Nie Ming, he moved, turned over and jumped into the huge rock cracks in a search. After several tossing and turning, he finally found a tea tree in a hidden and sunny place.

I saw that the crown of the tea tree was tall and straight, the branches were thick and grayish-yellow, the buds and leaves were fluffy and soft like cotton, and exuded an attractive fragrance.

Unfortunately, he seemed to be a step too late, because by this time a corpse had already fallen at the bottom of the tree.

Nie Ming sighed, but still chose to walk in and take a look, because this person's outfit didn't look right, it seemed to be the ninjas who had ambushed him.

And when he got closer, there was also a three-finger-thick bamboo leaf green nailed to his lower abdomen by a kunai, and there were few new leaves on the tea trees here, and it was obvious that he could not get any more harvest.

Nie Ming picked off the other party's body with the tip of his halberd and began to examine it carefully, but what made him feel wrong was that this person had nothing on his body except for the kunai, and he had obviously been searched by others!

While Nie Ming was rummaging through the corpse, there was a slight noise outside the rift, and he quietly pulled out his halberd to make a fighting posture, and the appearance of being in battle was very scary.

A red dress floated in, like blood like a glow, and a close look at this face like a crown of jade, looking indescribably coquettish, Chen Liang slowly walked into the rock crevice, and slowly came to the side of the corpse, he used a silver needle to pick open the snake corpse, "It hasn't stinked yet, look at the death of this snake should not exceed 3 hours." ”

"Chen Gongzi seems to be empty-handed." Nie Ming smiled and lowered the halberd in his hand, "As the saying goes, if it's not my race, its heart will be different, shouldn't we join forces temporarily?" ”

"Nie Gongzi is right, the people of the rivers and lakes should be unanimous with the outside world, and the cooperation is happy." Chen Liang nodded and smiled, and at the same time stretched out his hand.

Of course, that's what they say, but in fact, the two of them did it at the same time!

Nie Ming waved his hand and threw out the halberd in his left hand, and at the same time turned sideways and put on another halberd, and shot through the clouds and pointed directly at the opponent's chest.

Chen Liang wrapped two white exercises with his hands around the halberd body, and at the same time flew up and threw the halberd towards Nie Ming.

The two staggered in the air, Chen Liang flew up with a kick, and Nie Ming pushed it away with a backhand, holding his short halberd when he used it.

"My time is very tight, and this Chen Gongzi's methods can only be seen later." As he spoke, Nie Ming turned over and crossed the rock crevice and began to continue to fly forward.

·······

The lithology of the land in Lufeng is extremely strong, and there are red sandstone scattered among the scattered trees, and while rushing on the sandstone, Nie Ming suddenly felt a crisis that came from nowhere.

Just when the old force was about to make a living with new strength, the red ground suddenly burst open, and many red-clothed ninjas rushed out of the soil. The long knife protruded, and the bitterness flew away, and blood stains were on Nie Ming's body.

Nie Ming rolled on the spot, and the halberd flew over. The battle intent burned in Nie Ming's pupils.

Look around, twelve! I really look up to me! Turning around and backhanding, a halberd set up the two long knives on the right, and as soon as they fit, Nie Ming leaned into the arms of a widow, and the raised halberd blade brought up a pillar of blood to the sky. "One!"

As soon as the halberds were closed, they forced away the three people who were close to them with a dance around them, and also blocked the two kunai in front of them.

Hiss! Two kunai slashed across his back, and the shadow leopard skin was well insulated from the invasion of toxins, but a bloody mouth was still half an inch deep.

Nie Ming let out a loud shout and then luckily in his arm, and a boom sounded in the air!

I saw a full force sweep, which was a clear sound of three clicks, the knife was broken, and the person died.

"Four!" Nie Ming didn't stop, and turned sideways to avoid it. Ninjas who go straight to the periphery.

The other party was not afraid, and drew their swords, but they did not notice it, and silver horses began to fly on the battlefield, and when they realized that something was wrong during the siege, three assassins had already fallen to the ground silently.

In the middle of a sweep, the three of them fell silently, and there was a silver needle standing behind them, and the tail of the needle was still trembling slightly, obviously just thrown out.

Seeing this scene, the remaining assassins scattered as birds and beasts, but the horses behind them also flew away, mercilessly knocking down one assassin after another.

"It's really dangerous······" Nie Ming took off the silver needle stuck to his vest and flipped over the overturned corpse.

He frowned, for they had nothing but weapons and dry food! And there is no inscription on the knife, just an ordinary steel knife.

At this time, Nie Ming really smelled the breath of conspiracy. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Nie Ming withdrew. The samurai of Japan will not accept the sword of the nameless!
