The Qinling Mountains are a giant dragon separating the north and south of China. Its entire mountain range runs through the three provinces of "Gansu, Shaanxi and Henan", with a total length of 1,600 kilometers. The ancients said: "Qinling, in the sky, the south of the capital, so the name is Zhongnan, also known as: Zhongnan Mountain". According to our understanding, the boundary of the Qinling Mountains is divided into two types: "narrow" and "broad". In a narrow sense, the highest peak of the Qinling Mountains is the "Taibai Mountain" in southern Shaanxi. In a broad sense, the highest peak referred to in the Qinling Mountains is the "Cuomei Peak" in the Gannan region.

The ancient painting I got in the tomb of Aunt Braided only mentions a few key words such as "five-clawed golden dragon" and "dragon does not see stone". As for the "highest peak of the Qinling Mountains" we are looking for, it is difficult to say whether it refers to Taibai Mountain in a narrow sense or Cuomei Peak in a broad sense. Therefore, Zhou Boren decided that for the sake of the great revolutionary cause of the party and the people, we can be "tired", but we cannot be "wrong". In other words, we decided to go through both peaks, which is the safest and stupid way to go.

Our car drove on the quiet Qinling Mountain Road, at this time night fell quietly, so Zhou Boren decided that the team would rest at the foot of Taibai Mountain tonight, and set off early tomorrow morning to climb the mountain to watch the situation. This is very good, the people who have been running for more than ten hours are already tired and hungry at this moment, and since entering the Qinling Mountains, I have been holding a soak of urine here, and the sweat is holding back......

Our car stopped at a hotel called "Ziqi Donglai" at the foot of Taibai Mountain. The hotel is not big, but there are a lot of cars parked in front of the door, and I have checked it visually, and there are at least thirty or forty cars. At first glance, we all thought that the guest room must be full, but when we walked in and asked, the boss actually said that there was no business tonight, and there were many rooms. As soon as I heard what he said, I couldn't help but mutter. There are a lot of cars parked at the door, but why is there no one living there? Where have all the people gone? But when I thought about it, it has nothing to do with us, we don't care where we like to go. If it is late today, everyone is tired, and I am afraid that there is no second hotel in this radius of more than ten miles, so I am no longer suspicious when I think of this, and directly open six rooms.

Our six rooms are all on the second floor, everyone into the house to see, the room is a little small, but it is still clean and tidy, you can make do with it, after all, we are out to do revolution, not out to play, this condition is already very good. So everyone put their luggage back in the house and gathered in the restaurant on the first floor to eat.

This hotel at the foot of the mountain, the owner's surname is Wang, and his single name is a yang character, and he is a middle-aged man who loves "cultural play". He was wearing a black tunic suit, wearing an agarwood bracelet on his left arm, a small leaf red sandalwood on his right arm, and a jade Guanyin carved from Hetian jade seeds around his neck, and playing with two walnuts in his hand. ”

After we sat down, Boss Wang came over with a smile, handed us the menu, made us a pot of tea, and very politely scattered a circle of cigarettes. We ordered a few local specialties, Boss Wang nodded, wrote them down one by one with a pen, and then said "Wait a minute", and went into the kitchen to get busy.

Twenty minutes later, six dishes and one soup were served on the table. Boss Wang politely said to us, "Use it slowly, just greet him if you have anything." Then, he sat down at another table, drinking wine and eating peanuts and watching TV. Zhou Boren gave me a look, and I nodded my understanding. From ancient times to the present, all tomb robbers must first master the four decisions of "looking, hearing, asking, and cutting". To put it bluntly, it is also a "cliché".

So I smiled and said to Boss Wang: "Hey! Boss, I see that you are quite bored drinking alone, come and come, you are brothers when you go out, come and drink with us, everyone chatter. ”

The boss smiled at us, nodded, and walked over with a wine glass, and said politely, "Don't bother you, right?" ”

I quickly got up and gave him a seat, and hurriedly smiled: "Of course I don't bother, drinking, it's just that there are more people to be lively, as the saying goes, wine is a thousand cups of confidant, I look at your body, I look at your body, I see that I am a confidant, and I am also a fan of literary games." ”

As soon as Boss Wang heard that I also like to play with literature, the conversation box was opened, he was originally gentle and elegant, talking about the matter of playing with literature, it was really a spitting star, he said that he failed to do business in the sea 20 years ago, and he wanted to die, so he walked to a lake, and was about to jump into the lake, but suddenly found that a black thing appeared in the soil on the shore.

It was a scorching summer day, and even the rats were so hot that they didn't want to come out of the nest, but when Boss Wang approached the black object, he suddenly felt an incredible coolness! A look of surprise filled his heart, and when he saw that there was no one around, he dug the black object out of the dirt.

This black thing is the size of a small table, Boss Wang looked left and right, but he really couldn't see what this thing was, but his intuition and experience after so many years of mixing in the rivers and lakes told him that all the "strange things" that came out of the soil were usually "good things", so he spent a lot of effort to move this "big guy" back home. Then, Boss Wang cut a small piece from the top and took it to someone for identification, and found that it was a piece of "gloomy wood" that had been precipitated for thousands of years, which is what we commonly call: golden silk nanmu.

This adventure gave Boss Wang hope to live again. This piece of golden silk nanmu not only helped him pay off all his debts, but also allowed him to get a large sum of extra money. Boss Wang went from the world to hell, and then from hell to heaven, he felt a lot in his heart, and since then he has given up fame and fortune, and came to the foot of Taibai Mountain to run this hotel, living a life of seclusion as a fairy. When I have nothing to do, I study the cultural games based on golden silk nanmu, which can be regarded as a pleasure.

I drank with Boss Wang while listening to him, and in less than half an hour, the two of them had already drunk more than five taels, both of them were blushing and thick-necked. I saw that the time was ripe, so I deliberately said: "Lao Wang, I heard your adventure brother heartily, you have lived under this Taibai Mountain for 20 years, your life is not only comfortable, but you also earn more money than us, I really envy you." ”

Boss Wang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother, your brother and I are just trying to have a clean life, where can I make any money, hehehe...... If you look at how cold my business is, I can keep my capital. ”

I said, "Hey, don't fool me, if your business here is not good, why are there so many cars parked outside?" Hehehe, it won't be yours alone, right? ”

When Boss Wang heard my words, for some reason, his face was as white as paper......
