"Elder Liang is very knowledgeable, and he is an authority in this area, it seems that this plant is indeed purple cloud grass." Meng Lang slapped a sycophant without a trace.

Liang Xuedong stroked his beard and smiled, which seemed to be very useful.

Meng Lang continued to ask, "I don't know, can you please tell me about this purple cloud grass?" ”

When it came to plants, Liang Xuedong was immediately full of interest and said with a smile: "Purple cloud grass grows near the residence of an ethnic minority in the southwest border, and the local residents used to mash this plant in ancient times, filter out the residue, and then let the liquid of these purple cloud grass stand for three days as a natural pigment for cloth. ”

"I see!" Meng Lang didn't expect that the mysterious plant that was so useful to him turned out to be the pigment for dyeing cloth, thinking of this, he also sighed in his heart!

Next, the two chatted about some things from all over the world, for more than two hours, until the sky gradually darkened, and then they stopped.

After Meng Lang sent Liang Lao home, he also returned to the place where he parked, and then started the car and returned home.

After a night of silence, early the next morning, he got on a plane to the southwest.

After getting off the plane, he casually flagged down a taxi and chartered a taxi directly to the minority village with purple cloud grass that Liang Xuedong said.

After seven hours of traveling, I finally came to this village on the southwest border, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful.

The buildings in the village are also very characteristic of the local ethnic group, they are all two-story small buildings built of wood, and from a distance, there is a taste of paradise in it!

Entering the village, except for some elderly people who are still wearing traditional national costumes, the younger ones are all dressed casually, which is no different from the outfit on Meng Lang's body.

Because of the beautiful scenery, there are often some tourists who come from afar, and some of the nimble residents of the village have also opened several inns that resemble inns.

However, Meng Lang didn't pay too much attention to these, but found some local old people who were sitting around chatting and basking in the sun, and asked about the whereabouts of Ziyun Grass.

He took out a pack of Great China from his pocket, and after sending them one by one, he found one of the old men with a relatively kind face and asked, "Old man, do you know the purple cloud grass?" ”

The old man took the cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and then spit out a puff of the cigarette before grinning and said, "Ghost Sima, the front hall hasn't moved?" ”

Meng Lang heard the words for a while, and asked politely, this good-faced old man still said just now.

Seeing this, the other old men also chattered one after another, and they were very enthusiastic, but Meng Lang didn't understand it at all.

It seems that these local old people don't speak Mandarin, and even if they do, they have a strong local accent, and they can't understand it at all.

Meng Lang shook his head, didn't bother to say more, and sent out another round of cigarettes before getting up and leaving.

After walking for a while, he found that there was a small store not far ahead, Meng Lang's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he walked over quickly.

When I entered the store, before I had time to take a closer look, a round-faced girl greeted me and asked sweetly, "This gentleman, what do you want?" ”

Meng Lang smiled: "Bring me a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of drink." ”

After speaking, he glanced around the store, the area of the small store is not large, in addition to some small snacks on the shelves around it, there are daily necessities such as soy sauce, vinegar, washing powder, etc., it seems that this is a very ordinary small food store.

"Okay," the girl agreed, and after quickly taking out what Meng Lang wanted, she asked casually, "Mr. is here for tourism, right?" ”

Meng Lang nodded, he thought for a while, and asked, "Little sister, do you know where there is that purple cloud grass in your village?" ”

"Purple Cloud Grass?"

The round-faced girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then finally shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of this thing!" ”

Then seeing Meng Lang's somewhat disappointed expression, the girl said enthusiastically: "Wait a minute, I'll help you ask my grandfather to take a look, maybe his old man knows." ”

Then without waiting for Meng Lang to answer, she shouted a few words in local dialect upstairs, and after a while, an old voice came from upstairs, and then she saw an old man with white hair walking down the stairs slowly.

After the old man came down, he first glanced at Meng Lang before saying a few words to his granddaughter in the local dialect.

Although Meng Lang couldn't understand what they were talking about, he still politely handed over the cigarette he had just bought.

After the old man took the cigarette, a smile appeared on his face, and he seemed to be happy.

Then the round-faced girl and the old man murmured for a while.

The girl turned around and said sweetly to Meng Lang: "My grandfather said that there are a lot of this kind of grass growing on the back mountain, and now few people know it, and now it is the flowering season!" ”

"Back Mountain?"

The round-faced girl said enthusiastically: "Yes, after you go out, go to the left, until you walk to the Yunlai Inn, and then turn left."

"Thank you!" After Meng Lang thanked him, he followed the route indicated by the girl and walked all the way, the mysterious plant was in front of him, he was anxious, and the movements under his feet couldn't help but speed up a little!

Ten minutes later, I finally came to the back mountain that the girl said, and before I got closer, I saw a sea of purple flowers blooming on the hillside in the distance.

Meng Lang took a deep breath, and then came to the front of this sea of purple flowers in one go, only to see green plants with small lilac flowers swaying in the wind, looking no different from the mysterious plant in his memory!

The fragrance of flowers entered his nose, Meng Lang couldn't help but take a deep breath, and when he was intoxicated, suddenly his movements stopped, recalling that the plant he encountered in the 100,000 mountains did not have any fragrance.

Puzzled, he turned his gaze to this sea of flowers again, and after a long while, he shook his head with some disappointment, although the purple cloud grass in front of him was no different from the plants in his memory.

But when he looked closely, he always felt that something indescribable was missing, as if he was missing some kind of charm!

If these two plants are purple cloud grass, then the purple cloud grass here seems to have no soul, lacking the trace of agility and elegance in memory!

When disappointed, Meng Lang still possessed and picked one of the purple cloud grasses, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.

Sure enough, the modified cells in his body did not react at this time, which was completely different from the crazy energy when he was in the 100,000 Great Mountain!

Undying, he circled around the hillside again, and from time to time pulled up a purple cloud grass to try, and after more than an hour, a somewhat lost Meng Lang returned to the same place again.

Obviously, this purple cloud grass is not the kind of mysterious plant that he encountered in the 100,000 mountains!

Meng Lang sighed, and then he returned to the commissary where the girl was, and under the introduction of the other party, he stayed in an inn not far away.

Lying in the room of the inn at night, he wondered if he would have to run another hundred thousand mountains, although the probability of encountering that mysterious plant again was infinitely close to zero, but he had the right to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor!

Early the next morning, Meng Lang got on the shuttle bus to and from the village, left the beautiful village, and returned to Guanghai City again.

After he finished the beauty of the customers he had accumulated in the past few days, he explained a few words to Xiaowei and Xie Dong, and planned to go to the 100,000 Mountains again!
