Chapter 46: A Gift
After telling the uncle, Bai Yi wanted to enter the mountain quickly, after all, no matter what the mountain was, it was not safe at night.
"Uncle, let's get ready to go into the mountain." After a short rest, Bai Yi explained the requirements to the uncle.
"Well, you prepare and go into the mountain at once." After the uncle finished speaking, he also went to prepare, and the mountain people relied on the mountain to eat the mountain, and they were more in awe of the mountain. Bai Yi and Wang Dahai also entered the room to change into protective clothing, Bai Yi carried a multi-functional dagger around his waist, and hung a long rope and two water bottles with a length of 40 cm.
Wang Dahai is the same, but he has an extra backpack, because he may encounter some medicinal herbs in the mountains, you can pick some and bring a camera, which is used to shoot and capture wild animals or distant plants, even if it is on the opposite side of the ravine, people can't pass, but you can use the camera to capture the picture, mark it and then go to the opposite side of the ravine to find.
When the two in white came out, the uncle had already come out, and I saw that the uncle's face was painted with colorful paint, and his skin was touched with some juice, because the skin had turned yellow, and it could be seen at a glance.
The uncle looked at the two people in white wearing protective clothing, and couldn't help nodding, it seemed that they were two more stable young men, "Doctor, turn around, I'll help you wipe some insect repellent medicine, rub some realgar, and repel insects and snakes." The uncle said that he first asked Wang Dahai to turn around and rub on Wang Dahai's back and legs.
After that, I rubbed it again, especially near the protective clothing, and the link with the hat, there was a thicker gap, and the uncle wiped it more directly, otherwise it would be funny to wait until the insects crawled in.
After the three of them checked each other to make sure that they didn't have anything missing, they prepared to enter the mountain. When Bai Yi and Wang Dahai followed their uncle to the mountain, they heard the villagers greet them and realized that the uncle was actually the head of this village.
While walking and chatting, I learned that the uncle's children were working outside, and the uncle sent the children out of the mountain, and the children wanted to take the uncle out, but the uncle refused to leave, so the children decorated the home better. From time to time, I come back to see my old father.
I knew in the chat that the uncle's wife had left a few years ago. The illness did not give mercy and took away the uncle's wife, so the uncle was even more in awe of the doctor. Straight doctors save lives and help the wounded, which is a great profession. Bai Yi just smiled at this.
The more you go into the mountains, the less populated there are, and I know from the chat that the mountain people also have their own mountain goods, so there is no need to risk going to the mountains to make a living, and even the town has an agricultural bureau to guide the mountain people to plant some mountain goods with high economic value.
The gradual dense weeds have covered the mountain roads that were carved out by the mountain people in the past, leaving only a faint trail, proving that people have entered here before.
"The more weeds there are at the foot of the mountain, the more weeds there are when you go higher inside, the fewer weeds there are. Uncle said with a smile.
Bai Yi suddenly found that it seemed that what the uncle said was very reasonable, saying that the existence of weeds was determined because of the altitude, and there were no weeds at the same height, and they grew in other places.
Of course, there is enough evidence that weeds exist because of the climate and altitude. It's just that few people can see weeds and thorns as self-protection of mountains and forests.
When I walked halfway down the mountain, weeds and thorns were already very scarce, and there were only some sparse weeds and thorns under some low trees. The three people in white walked in all the way and heard the chirping of many wild animals, which was enough to see the mountains and forests, because people rarely came in, they had already recuperated through self-cultivation and were gradually recovering.
Bai Yi listened to the chirping of wild animals, looked at the taller and taller straight trees, and showed a rare smile. "Uncle, you are very well protected here, the mountains and forests are tall and the trees are numerous, there are many animals, and even some ordinary medicinal herbs are available."
"That is, even when the state did not promulgate the law on the protection of mountains and forests, we also had a period of mountain recess here, and it was forbidden to enter the mountains and forests during the mountain holidays, so that we had to leave some roots for future generations." The uncle said proudly.
"Uncle, there shouldn't be any poachers lately, right?" Wang Dahai asked.
"Basically, there is no more, there is also an early morning to catch a wild boar or a pheasant, catch a snake or something, it will not be as rampant as before, directly drive the car to the foot of the mountain, a large group of people, rushed into the mountains and forests to cause trouble, it is simply bandits into the mountains, the land is three feet shorter."
After all, with the introduction of the Wildlife Protection Law, there are still various substitutes to appear, and poaching ordinary animals and plants can no longer make huge profits, and the risk is too great.
Stop-and-go, Bai Yi drank all the water bottles, and only then came to the halfway up the mountain, looking at the relatively wide terrain, Bai Yi proposed to stop.
Wang Dahai and the uncle had no opinion, and the white clothes signaled Wang Dahai to put down the backpack and take out the medicine hoe from it, which can be retracted to chase snakes. Start looking for some relatively rare medicinal herbs by yourself, even ordinary medicinal herbs, as long as the year is long enough, the white clothes will pick it, otherwise it will only wither when it reaches the age of time.
After the medicinal materials in Bai Yi's hand, Bai Yi asked the uncle to follow and identify them, what effect was Bai Yi motioned to Wang Dahai to record them with a pen, and then pasted them on the medicinal materials and distributed them to the uncle.
"Uncle, thank you for accompanying us into the mountain, these marked medicinal materials are some that can be used often, I marked it with you, if you have time to go into the mountain, you can wait for me to pick some and put it at home for later use, if there is a symptomatic disease, take these boiled water to drink, it is very effective." Bai Yi handed the medicinal herbs marked by Wang Dahai to the uncle.
"I can't help it, I can't help it, I just don't worry about you going into the mountain, I'm afraid that if there is danger, how can I collect the medicinal herbs you picked." The uncle waved his hand again and again.
"It doesn't matter, the two of us don't live on this, just look at these medicinal herbs, because they are close to their survival years, and if they are not picked, they will naturally wither and die." After speaking, Bai Yi also pulled the uncle in to introduce some medicinal materials and medicinal effects. They are all medicinal herbs that were not named during the uncle's period.
You must know that the mountain people live at the foot of the mountain, and they often go in and out of the mountains and forests, so they naturally know a lot of medicinal materials, maybe for some reasons, the names are different, and the medicinal effects are not fully known, but it does not prevent them from really knowing a lot of medicinal materials.
"Uncle, what about the medicinal herbs you mentioned, some of them are eaten together, and the effect is very good, but some of the medicinal herbs are poisonous when eaten together. Therefore, try to ask about the efficacy and compatibility before you can decoct the medicine yourself, otherwise it will be dangerous. Bai Yi admonished.
The three of them walked farther and farther, and suddenly Baiyi actually seemed to hear the sound of running water, and there was still the sound of running water in such a high place, it must be mountain spring water.
"Well, before we knew it, we had come to the Goddess Creek, and this stream fell straight down from the source of the mountaintop. There is also a small fork stream, where there is a Wang Yan Crack Spring. The water is very sweet and cold. Just as we went over to replenish some water. The uncle didn't pay attention to Bai Yi's introduction of medicinal materials before, and then he looked up and found that he was about to walk to the Goddess Creek.
"Wow, I've heard that the mountain spring water is delicious, so I can experience it for myself." Wang Dahai has been sweating for so long with his backpack, and the water has long been drunk, at this time, he heard the uncle say that there is mountain spring water to drink, and naturally feels more thirsty, and hurriedly agrees to urge, "Go faster, I'm dying of thirst." ”
The three of them walked a few steps and saw a half-meter-wide stream meandering in front of them, probably the autumn season, the water flow was not large, and Bai Yi stretched out his hand to feel it and found that the water was really cold.
"Come here, the spring is here, and this water is coming out of the cracks in the rock." Seeing that Wang Dahai was very thirsty, the uncle directly took the two of them in white to the spring, and a thumb-sized spring water gushed out from a sunken rock, and the amount of water was not large, but there was always water flowing out.
Wang Dahai immediately walked a few steps quickly, stretched out his hands, washed it and drank it directly with his hands, the entrance of the spring water only felt like a jade liquid, and the whole person felt hearty, Wang Dahai kept drinking water until he was full.
"It's so delicious, uncle, does this spring water flow all year round?" Wang Dahai stepped aside and motioned for the uncle to drink saliva first.
"I haven't seen a break in the flow, I've never heard of a spring when I'm so big, and the water quality has been so good for so many years." The uncle replied with a smile, and by the way, he motioned to Bai Yi to drink first. The white clothes waved their hands, indicating that they would let the uncle drink first.
This time, the uncle was not pushing, and it didn't take much time to drink saliva directly, and the time for pushing was enough to drink water by himself.
After the uncle drank the water, Bai Yi washed his hands and drank the water with his hands. Sure enough, it feels sweet and delicious, and it makes people want to drink it again. Bai Yi didn't drink too much water, just drank about it, and then Bai Yi drank the little water left in the water bottle, and then took two bottles of water from the water bottle.
Wang Dahai naturally took out a water bottle to replenish water, and the water bottle with a good heat preservation effect was filled with mountain spring water, even after a few hours. It's also a treat!
When Wang Dahai filled the water and sat on the rocks of the stream, the uncle took out a long bamboo tube to hold the water, and in the uncle's words, he got used to it.
Bai Yi took advantage of the rest to look around, and suddenly found a rare medicinal herb by the stream that he had not seen for so long. The white clothes walked a few steps quickly, even if the stream wet the trouser legs of the protective suit, they didn't realize it.
When Wang Dahai saw Bai Yi's appearance, he knew what Bai Yi had discovered. "Xiaoyi slow down, the medicinal herbs won't run away by themselves" Wang Dahai hurriedly chased after him, and the uncle who was loading water also hurriedly tightened the bamboo tube and followed.
"Haizi, look at the wild heavy building, it's a wild heavy building." Bai Yi pointed to a medicinal herb and said to Wang Dahai.
Uncle looked at it for a while, how did it feel like the snake medicine before. "Doctor Bai, is this snake medicine? How do I feel like the snake medicine in the past, this herb used to be expensive for a while, and we picked and sold it in large quantities. ”
"Yes, it is also a poisonous snake medicine, wild heavy buildings are rare, our country's heavy buildings already need to be imported, because of unreasonable development, resulting in a significant reduction, and even on the verge of extinction for a period of time." Bai Yi explained.
