Chapter 48: Purpose

Mo Ye walked beside me, a smile on his face, "Brother Li, do you have something on your mind, do you want to be so involved?" ”

"yes...... I don't think it's going to be smooth for us. ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that, brother? ”

"Shut your crow's mouth, I-" The cannon man walked ahead and glared back at me, but Mo Ye gave him a spoon and motioned for me to continue.

"Let's not talk about the dangerous mountains and rivers, the key to the problem lies in people." I replied.

"Huh? Do you think there is a problem among us? Mo Ye narrowed his eyes.

The artillery turned back, this time approvingly, "Hmm! That's right-" He glanced at the three people behind him with his eyes, "two 'oil bottles' waste, a little girl who doesn't know the roots, the more you look at it, the more fucking upset you are!" ”

Mo Ye urged the artillery to leave quickly, "Everyone has spent 'travel expenses', and I don't want to take them with me and spit out the money!" ”

The artillery stopped talking, and walked in the footprints of Huqiu.

Mo Ye smiled at me again, "Actually, who doesn't have a little secret?" It's like you don't know us, and we don't know your roots, do you, Brother Li? "He's clearly joking, but he's actually trying to get to the bottom of me.

"I'm not that complicatedβ€”" I said with a laugh.

"Here it is!" Huqiu stopped.

I held up my flashlight and shone it forward, and it was a flat field, not big, but more than enough for a few of us. And because the surrounding forests are tall and dense, blocking the wind and snow, and the ground is covered with dead leaves and dry grass, it is really an excellent place to stay.

We each set up our tents, and Huqiu raised a fire in the middle, one to boil the water, and the other to expel the wild beasts in the forest, most of the wild animals were afraid of fire, which was common sense in the mountains and forests for a long time.

Liang Fang helped Hu Qiu make a fire and asked me, "Brother Li, you said that in this snowy sky, can there still be wild beasts?" ”

I can't say, the blind bear of the Northeast specialty is hibernating, but the wolf can't hibernate, and the most powerful thing is the Siberian tiger, which can't find food in winter, maybe it's starving at us.

Liang Fang was so frightened that he looked around, "Brother, don't scare me, can there be Siberian tigers in this, this place?!" ”

"Absolutely wild." I'm not talking nonsense, there were always reports of Siberian tigers coming down the mountain and eating farmers' livestock and poultry in those years.

Liang Fang immediately went back to the tent and took out an axe, I was a little surprised, "Far away, you are still carrying such a heavy guy?" ”

"Self-defenseβ€”" he said, "and chop wood and make a way." ”

I smiled, "Then you should bring a scythe and harvest the crops." ”

Liang Fang smiled awkwardly, "Brother Li, I don't have much experience, I have to learn more from you in the future." ”

The cannonball carried back a large bundle of dead branches, threw them on the ground, and aimed at Liang Fang with disdain, "Later? As long as you can't lift your hands and shoulders, I'm afraid there won't be much 'afterward'! ”

Liang Fang was so frightened by his momentum that he shrank back. Mo Ye sat there, gave another kick to the cannonball, then clapped his hands, and said loudly, "Everyone, come over and warm up, it just so happens that I have something to say to everyone - it is fate that we can get together, but we don't know each other, and it is not convenient for us to walk together in the future, at least we have to know each other and know what we can expect from entering the mountain this time......" He broke a branch into several sections, closed his eyes and touched the shortest root, "Okay, I'll come first!" ”

I've been part of this kind of makeshift team a few times before, mostly because things were urgent. Because, I don't want to walk with people who don't know the details, it's good to have money to make, but the process of experience that I am about to face must be under my control.

Mo Ye's proposal tonight is very good, at least it can let me have a plan to prepare in advance, no matter what everyone says is true or not, I can always judge one, two, three, four.

Mo Ye admits that the three of them are "stick heads", and the state has been very strict with poaching and logging over the years, and their industry has died out faster, and now there are no more than 20 "successors" left in the country, according to their words, they should really apply for "intangible cultural heritage". The purpose of the three of them this time is an old mountain ginseng - ginseng is a lot of things, seven taels are ginseng, eight taels are treasures, if it grows for hundreds of years, it will be considered a fine, you can't say "root", "plant", you have to be the same as people, called "bit"-

Mo Ye said that some colleagues who went into the mountain had seen an old mountain ginseng, not long ago, near the "Dragon and Tiger Ditch". But that time there was an accident, "scared away" the mountain ginseng, a group of peers can no longer find it can only give up, planning to enter the mountain again next year in the spring snow to ask for treasure. But some of them saw the money and sold the news to Huqiu at a high price, so the three of them didn't dare to delay and chose this most unsuitable season for ginseng picking to take risks.

Liang Fang and He Aijuan hesitated again and again, and finally said, "We really don't just come out to see the world...... We are graduate studentsβ€”" Liang Fang pointed to He Aijuan, "she is studying geology. I'm a meteorology ......."

The eyes of the cannon battle swirled on the two of them, "Burning bud rice leaves in front of the grave - bluffing your father?!" If you are really a student, you still need to hide it from us? ”

"Big brother, really, really!" Liang Fang was very afraid of this sturdy man, "We will graduate next year, and we need some field trip data to enrich our graduation thesis." ”

Mo Ye smiled and patted Liang Fang's shoulder, "Xiao Liang, don't bird him, what do you have to say, we don't want to say it, we are not reluctant, Uncle Mo can see that you are not bad people, if you really want to run into something, we will definitely give up our lives to protect you." ”

Liang Fang and He Aijuan glanced at each other, seemed to be a little moved, and finally sighed, "Uncle Mo, I'm sorry, we do have something to hide from everyone......"

Mo Ye looked at him with a kind smile.

"Actually, the two of us inadvertently monitored an abnormal weather storm in the laboratory, and the location coordinates are what you call 'Longhugou'β€”" Liang Fang said, "The fierceness of the storm is something we rarely observe, and if it is probed in detail, it will cause a huge sensation not only in China, but also in the world!" ”

"Win glory for the country, it's a good thing, this is!" Mo Ye smiled sincerely, "Just say it!" Although a few of you don't have any culture, you also understand the principle that the country is great, rest assured, along the way, to ensure your safety, no problem! ”

Liang Fang also smiled happily, "Uncle Mo, I didn't dare to say it before, because I was afraid that after you heard about the danger, you wouldn't dare to take us over." ”

"Hey! Silly boy, dangerous? It's windy and snowy, what's the danger? Cheng, your business is wrapped up in your uncle! ”

The two chatted very harmoniously, and when the firelight flickered, the originally cold atmosphere became more and more harmonious.

Now it's my turn, I'll briefly introduce it, saying that I'm going to find an investigation team, and the details haven't been expanded. Mo Ye smiled when he heard this, "I've heard about this, and the three of us have also discussed it, if we really meet, we will bring them back by the way." ”

In the end, everyone stared at Ah Fei, she looked at the "crackling" and beating flames in the firewood, she didn't speak for a long time, and the artillery battle was a little anxious, and she was about to urge, Ah Fei finally said lightly, "Treasure hunting." ”
