Chapter 125: Parting Ways

"The Grass King?"

My heart jumped, and I hurriedly looked around, and said incredulously, "You mean that the king of the hundred herbs is in this forest?" ”

Liu San waved his hand and said, "It shouldn't be in this forest, but it must be near this dry rice basin!" ”

I looked at Liu Sanshou in disbelief and said, "How do you know, just rely on this red-headed ginseng?" ”

Liu San smashed his mouth with his hand and said, "Do you know what you shouted about the mountain just now?" ”

I shook my head and said, "I don't know, the mountain ghost can't be?" ”

"." Liu Sanshou listened to it and grinned and said: "There is a kind of mallet bird in Changbai Mountain, with red eyes, yellow circles, and flower spots on the tail, which sounds very good, and it sounds like shouting "Brother Wang Dang", "Brother Wang Kang". ”

I was a little stunned when I heard this, licked my lips and said, "You're fucking bluffing me, what I heard just now was a mallet, and the gap between me and Brother Wang Kang is too big, right?" ”

Liu San slapped his thigh and said: "That's what I said, people are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and this bird is also divided, especially this mallet bird, dealing with ginseng all the year round, especially those who have seen big ginseng, how much will be stained with some aura on the body, and often meet ginseng pickers, listen to the shouting mountain and listen to it more, and see more, so I don't put the general ginseng in my eyes, only when I encounter a thousand-year-old ginseng or like the key to open the mountain, I will make a sound, and shout the mallet as soon as I make a sound, we call this kind of mallet bird the mountain god quack." ”

I nodded thoughtfully, my eyes unconsciously fell on the dead snake on the ground, and subconsciously asked, "Listening to what you just said, you seem to know that there are snakes here?" ”

Liu Sanshou's expression seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he coughed dryly and said: "Heaven and earth and all things are mutually reinforcing, especially in the big river and this deep mountain, the animals are all fucking essence, because the mallet bird likes to eat ginseng fruit." The snake also knew that it was good for this mouthful, so it specially guarded the ginseng, like a rotten log, motionless, the mallet bird came to eat the ginseng fruit, and sent itself to the snake's mouth, when the ginseng did not bear fruit, the snake did not come, after the fruit fell, the snake did not come, and the ginseng picker did not come when there was no fruit, and did not come after the fruit fell.

So, as if God had arranged it, if you want to dig ginseng, you have to deal with poisonous snakes.

It's also really interesting to say, the stick mallet bird leads the ginseng picker to the ginseng, the stick mallet bird eats the ginseng fruit, the poisonous snake eats the stick mallet bird, and the ginseng picker beats the poisonous snake to dig the mallet. If you are not careful, you will be bitten to death by a snake, turn into a handful of soil, and then nourish the ginseng seedlings. ”

"Isn't this the same thing you and I told you and me about the brine and tofu, one thing drops one thing, one thing is the same thing."

I pursed my lips, but I started to get a little excited when I looked at the blood ginseng in Liu San's hand, and said, "Is there really a grass king in this area?" ”

Liu Sanshou licked his lips and said, "There will be no mistake, the mouse pulls the wooden shovel, and the big head is behind, but now we have to think of a way to solve the group of immortal bardo." ”

Bardo?

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that he was talking about the group of dead students, and subconsciously glanced at the campfire over there and said, "Where do you think they are taking us?" ”

Liu San grinned and thought for a long time before saying, "I feel that there is only one possibility!" ”

"What?" I asked, wide-eyed.

"Ghost Gate Array!"

Seeing the doubts on my face, Liu Sanshou lowered his voice and explained: "These eighty-one dry rice pots and large pots and small pots have formed a natural huge ring in the hinterland of Changbai Mountain, and legend has it that if you can go all the way to the deepest part, you can find a stone gate formed by two large eight-sided stone pillars, where you can shuttle through the yin and yang worlds and discover the mystery of death." ”

I listened to what Liu Sanshou said, and looked at him in disbelief and said, "How much do you know about this, how can you even know this?" ”

Liu Sanshou didn't explain, but looked at me meaningfully, and said: "I feel that the way out of the minds of this group of students is to the Ghost Gate Formation, if we really keep following it, and then inside, I'm afraid there will be no turning back." ”

I frowned and said, "If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have gone so smoothly in this dry rice bowl, wouldn't we be blind if we got the Grass King and couldn't get out again?" ”

Liu Sanshou pursed his lips disdainfully, and said: "This dry rice bowl is not a hell abyss, you can't get out if you go in, there was a little girl who had never entered the dry rice bowl back then, and she inadvertently broke into here to pick mountain vegetables, and after picking home, it took a long time to hear the adults mention the situation here before she knew that she had been here, do you know how she got out?" ”

"Why?" I asked.

"Hey." Liu Sanshou laughed strangely and said: "Actually, it's hard to say if you really want to be ugly, but you just need to remember the truth that the devil is born from the heart, without that group of bardo people, we can still take the treasure and swagger out, don't worry." ”

The more I looked at this Liu Sanshou, the more I felt that this person's face seemed to be veiled, not as clean and thorough as the last time I saw him, and I always felt that this guy was deliberately hiding something from me.

But there is no way, people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, right now in this deep mountain and old forest, there can be no group of students, but there can be no Liu Sanshou, the big thing can only wait until after getting the king of the hundred herbs.

After Liu Sanshou put away the blood ginseng, the two left the woods and returned to the camp, the red carp had just woken up at that time, and when he saw us coming back, he just frowned and didn't ask much.

After a day's walk and tossing for half the night, I was tired for a long time, so I added some firewood to the fire and soon fell asleep leaning against the trunk of a tree on the side.

The next day, Liu Sanshou and I first briefly told the red carp about the events of last night, and then discussed how to explain to the group of students that since the grass king had already determined the scope, there was no need to risk going deeper.

Red carp has always been indifferent to this kind of thing, after getting her acquiescence, Liu Sanshou seemed to be prepared, slapped his thigh and walked straight to the crowd, and then found Xia Bo After the two got into the forest, they walked out again after a short time.

"Okay, half of the road is facing the sky, they go theirs, let's rest in this place, recuperate, and then search in a carpet way, don't put the red flag on the dry rice bowl, and swear not to return it!"

Seeing Liu San's hand running towards his face with joy, I glanced in the direction of Xia Bo suspiciously, but this glance met his cold gaze.

Xia Bo was packing up his things in the middle of the student pile, turning his head to meet me, and the gloom and resentment in it made people shudder.

"What did you tell them, so soon?"

I didn't dare to look at Xia Bo anymore, so I turned my head to look at Liu Sanshou and asked.

Liu San smashed his mouth with his hand and said: "It's nothing, so I will tell them that I know the road here, just go forward, and when you get to the exit, you will meet the rescuers." ”

Watching the group of students douse the bonfire with the stream water several times in a row, making sure that there was no smoke coming out before leaving, and some of them kept turning their heads to look back at us, the helplessness and pleading in their eyes made me can't help but turn my head and dare not look at them again.

After the figures of this group of students completely disappeared into the dense forest, Liu San stretched out his hand and patted his buttocks to stand up from the ground and said: "Big ginseng usually grows in the dark and damp soil near the water and trees. ”

I looked at the thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground that had grown to knees deep, frowned and said, "Just look for it with your eyes?" ”

Liu San waved his hand and said, "No, follow the old man, as long as you can meet it, even if it is hidden ten meters underground, the old man can smell it with his nose." ”

Listening to his words, I glanced at the red carp, and then pressed my heart and walked down the direction of the stream, along the way Liu Sanmen went down to the river and caught several big herring more than one meter long to come up and let us have a full meal.

When I was sitting by the stream to rest, I saw that the shoes under my feet had been reduced by the solid stones on the road, and the pants on my trouser legs had become rags, so I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said, "Just look for it, you can't find any name if you find death, right?" ”

Liu Sanshou also changed his previous excitement at this time, drooped his head and sighed for a long time, and was about to speak, when he saw a ball of pink liquid floating in the crystal clear river water. ()
