Chapter 9 Infinite Lock
Eating the perfect taste, Zhao Dong and Zhang San obediently went to clean, and Brother Ran went to drag the branches to block the road with branches and wood, so that the wild boars would generally take a detour when they saw it. This is a must-do job in the wild, not only to prevent wild boars but also to release wolves and leopards.
Lacey smeared the mashed mosquito paste on the base and roof of our improvised shack. He pulled out the burning branches and placed one or two outside each of the sheds, and Lacey said that the charcoal was also insect proof.
After a tiring day, everyone was lying in their respective shacks and chatting. Stick your head out and look at the starry sky, where the sky is clear and transparent. I have lived in Chongqing since I was a child, and I have never seen so many stars in the sky, so I slowly fell asleep.
I didn't sleep well all night, and I kept turning over and over in a daze. When I woke up, I saw that Lacey was sitting by the fire and fell asleep.
Zhang San and Zhao Dong's snoring is the loudest sound at night, these two can sleep soundly no matter where they are, sometimes I really envy such a simple mind, a simple person can live a simple life.
I woke up Lacey and told him to go to the shelter to sleep for a while, and I came to keep vigil for him.
After adding some firewood to the fire, I was bored, so I looked through the hand-copied notes given to me by Master Mao. After a while, Brother Ran also got up, Brother Ran got up to make breakfast, and I went to sleep for a while.
When I woke up again, the sky was already slightly bright, everyone got up, the rabbit bone soup boiled by Brother Ran, the eggs were thrown directly into the pot to boil, and the potatoes roasted with charcoal, after a few eats, we cleaned up and set off.
I walked early today, and the mountains were full of birds, and I could occasionally see a rush in the grass. In the morning, the mountains are foggy, but the air is particularly fresh, and the people's spirits are also very good.
Three hours later, at nine o'clock in the morning, Zhao Dong shouted, "Suspicious, there is a house here",
We all saw that there was a private house on the grassy slope outside the woods, with earthen walls and gray tiles, and was it inhabited?
"This is the forest ranger of the forest farm," said Brother Ran.
"Oh, shouldn't there be no one in the primeval forest", I don't understand.
"The trees in the forest farm are all government property, and if no one guards them, they will be cut down long ago," Brother Ran continued, "The periphery of the forest is guarded, and there will be no one inside to guard it."
"Well, that's it, you can't transport it even if you cut down a tree inside", it was Zhao Dong who spoke.
Lacey asked Brother Ran, "Brother Ran, how far have we walked?"
"Halfway there"
"Halfway? You can get there that night", I asked in amazement,
"If you can keep this speed, you are young and strong, I was wrong, hehe, hehe" Brother Ran laughed.
"Well, it really shouldn't be too far, otherwise who would send the coffin to such a far mountain", I said to myself, and I got acquainted with Brother Ran, and I completely forgot that it should be kept secret.
"Coffin! , what are you going to do in the mountains" Brother Ran shouted, stealing and digging other people's graves in the countryside is called a lack of morality, and the mountain people will definitely not do it.
"Yes, we have to find the right mushroom", there are no outsiders here, so let's tell Brother Ran.
"Mouthfuls?" Brother Ran asked again suspiciously, "Is it a coffin fungus?"
"Yes, I said that it is necessary to save people's lives, and the coffin fungus has high medicinal value"
"I know this, you should say it directly, I thought you were ......" Brother Ran said again, "My father-in-law's father is the feng shui master of the old society, and he used to move people's graves and bones to collect two pairs of coffin fungi, which were passed on to my father-in-law, I can ask my father-in-law for one."
Seeing that Brother Ran is so upright, I'll tell the truth, "Brother Ran, what we are looking for is the best in the mouthy mushrooms - ghost lingzhi."
Unexpectedly, Brother Ran was surprised, "I've heard this name, and I've heard my father-in-law say it, ghost Lingzhi, ghost Lingzhi, ghost Lingzhi must use a Wuji lock, otherwise you can't take out the coffin."
I smiled, and Brother Ran looked at me and understood, "Little brother, you are prepared, hehe."
"Wuji lock is actually a complete set of procedures, in order to be afraid of others leaking secrets, so it was named to show mystery, Brother Ran, you can know this, which means that your father-in-law's father must be a great feng shui master"
"I don't know about this, I haven't seen it, I heard that he passed away a long time ago," Ran replied.
"Oh, what's his name", I just asked casually, but I didn't expect to discover a shocking secret in the future.
"I don't know, I just know that my father-in-law has the same surname as Mao."
"Surname Mao?" , will it be Master Mao's relatives?
"Let's go," Lacey urged us.
"Okay", we picked up the pace again and headed for our destination.
The fog in the morning was too big and hazy, the altitude here was a little high, and after resting for a while, Zhao Dong and Zhang San shouted cold,
Lacey and I both brought long-sleeved clothes, and Brother Ran didn't feel cold with the long-sleeved ones he wore himself.
"Then go faster, when it gets warm, it won't be cold," said Brother Ran.
It was a rush to go, and the two delicious meals last night and the morning helped a lot, and although we were out of breath, we were still up a hill very quickly.
A gust of wind blew, and the fog in front of it lifted, revealing some artificially built walls on the majestic hill ahead.
"Brother Ran, what is that",
"That's Lan Yingzhai."
"Lan Yingzhai! We're here," I began to cheer.
"It's not Yin Tiao Ridge yet, Yin Tiao Ridge is ahead", Brother Ran said to me.
"That's right, what we are looking for is Lanying Village, Lanying Village in Yintiao Ridge."
"Oh~~~~" Zhang Dong Zhang San dropped the long stick in his hand and rushed down the hillside.
"Slow down, slow down", Brother Ran kept shouting.
Lacey also stopped to look at the two living treasures, and sure enough, these two fell, and there was a sound of pots and pans colliding, and they were still rolling down.
"Oh, be careful" Brother Ran shouted hurriedly, and I was also shocked, it's nothing. It's a sloping meadow.
We quickened our pace and approached the two living treasures.
The two living treasures were already covered in mud, sitting on the ground and complaining to each other, and the pots and pans in Zhang San's backpack fell all over the hillside.
Zhang San and Zhao Dong sat there panting with mud on their faces, looking like two mud monkeys.
"You two splash monkeys, see that I accepted you", after taunting them, I put down the wooden box and found that my breath was still very even, and I didn't gasp for breath. My physical fitness seems to have improved a lot after two months of exercise, but my shoulder hurts from being strangled by the wooden box.
"There's a stream down there, you can go wash your face", Brother Ran sat down after speaking, took out his tobacco leaves and began to roll.
I was about to arrive at the destination, everyone was very happy, I asked Brother Ran, "Brother Ran, do all the people in Dangyang smoke cigarette bags?"
Brother Ran lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, spit out the cigarette, looked at me and said, "Every household in the mountains has to grow some tobacco leaves, the mountains are humid, and smoking can dispel dampness." There are many mosquitoes and locusts in the mountains, and the smell of smoke at home is heavy, so they will not provoke insects into the house."
Oh, it turns out that smoking has so many benefits, "Brother Ran, who built this Lan Yingzhai, it looks a bit old."
Brother Ran took out a piece of paper folded into a square and handed it to me.
Unfolding the piece of paper, it is a county plan, which contains the introduction of the development of the world's highest waterfall --- Lanying Waterfall scenic spots, and the development of Lanying Village White Lotus Sect activity sites.
"Is there going to be development here?" , I asked.
"My brother-in-law is a teacher in Chongqing, and he wrote it, and I hope the government will approve it, so that people in the mountains don't have to go outside to work."
I see that there is an introduction to Lan Yingzhai on the paper, and I will read it to everyone.
"The Lanying Village in the Yintiaoling area is dangerous, the wall is 4.5 meters high, about 80 meters long, and 2.5 meters thick, all made of stones. The trail up the mountain is facing the walled gate, the cliffs on both sides, the walled fort in the middle is high, it is really a man who is a soldier, and ten thousand people are not open.
When Xue Gang opposed the Tang Dynasty, in order to escape the pursuit of the government, he passed through Lintong, passed through Fangzhou, and went straight to Dajiu Lake. When he went to the official seal, he was caught by Ji Lanying, the king of the mountain. Ji Lanying saw that Xue Gang was handsome and chic, and his martial arts were extraordinary, so he begged Xue Gang to stay in the cottage, and the two became husband and wife, held high the banner of righteousness, and created a great cause together. Later, people called the stone village where Xue Gang and Ji Lanying were guarding "Lanying Village". The hemp stone at the site of the village has survived more than 1,300 years of wind and rain and is still intact.
The scenery of Lanyingzhai is dominated by primeval forests, and the Yintiaoling area with Lanyingzhai as the core was formerly known as Jiuyan Mountain, and "Xue Gang Anti-Tang" said that "Jiuyan Mountain has excellent feng shui, very steep, surrounded on all sides, nine mountains hug each other, and there are more than 100 miles of flat land on it".
Xue Gang occupied Jiuyan Mountain, recruited troops, pulled up the anti-flag, opposed Wu Zetian, and secretly protected Li Xian's accession to the throne. Due to Xue Gang's long anti-Tang period here, there were many people and horses, and the battle was fierce, leaving more historical relics and folklore.
If the horse is tied to the pile, it means that the generals of Xue Gang's anti-Tang Dynasty have tied horses here. Legend has it that as long as someone tied a horse here, countless people could be heard shouting: "Tongcheng tiger and horse are here, and they are tied elsewhere." "Tongcheng Tiger is Xue Gang's title.
Washing the horse pool, Xue Gang's wife Ji Lanying, when she was pregnant with Xue Kui, she was riding on a horse and suddenly gave birth, Ji Lanying just endured it, beat the horse and ran fast, until she was born on the yellow lawn. And the horse left a lot of Ji Lanying's blood on his body, and Xue Gang poured water in a pool to wash it, and the water in the pool turned red. Since then, this pond has been called the Horse Washing Pond, and it still glows red from time to time.
Copper fort, the Tang Dynasty has begun to use gunpowder to try to make various artillery, Xue Gang built a copper fort in a dangerous place, placed copper cannons to defend against the enemy, copper forts are still there today. ”
The back is how to treat the surrounding mountain people after development, how to stimulate the economy of Wuxi, and whatever. I won't read it anymore.
Looking at the majestic village on the top of the mountain opposite, the scenery is beautiful all the way, the stream is clear, the mountain is majestic, such a beautiful scenery is not seen in the snow.
"Li Xiaoshuai, I hate you", every time I think of Bai Xue, I think of the words when I was separated.
