Chapter 0047 - Finding Traces (Asking for Points and Collecting Tickets)
In the vast deep mountains, Zeng Zhi rode the silver wolf Xiaoyin, shuttling through the dense jungle.
The time was nearly six o'clock, and the sky was getting darker and darker, but he still didn't find any trace of Yuan Ling and the others.
If it was a fine day, it would not be dark until about half past seven in May, but today's torrential rain is pouring, and the mountains and dense forests are shading, and there are already some things that cannot be seen clearly in the mountains.
Although people did not find it, Zeng Zhi was not completely without harvest, mainly some precious Chinese medicinal materials and wild fruit trees in the mountains.
In addition to the several Dendrobium officinale plants found before, he also found a lot of gastrodia, Ganoderma lucidum, Cordyceps, Polygonum multiflori, and Huangjing, which is worthy of the title of its plant treasure house.
As an extremely primitive treasure trove of plants, there are not only a lot of Chinese medicinal materials in Nanwu Mountain, but also many wild fruit trees, such as kiwi fruit and wild grapes, as well as wild fruits such as wild dates and sour dates, Zeng Zhi even found two yew trees.
Several kiwi fruits of a large scale were transplanted by Zeng Zhi to the mountains of the Qinglian Secret Realm. As a wild vine fruit tree, kiwifruit must have a large tree to climb to grow better.
The dozen or so wild grapes that had already borne fruit were transplanted by Zeng Zhi to the place near the pond next to the Xianju, and he built a lot of grape trellises with fresh bamboo around the pond.
In addition, Zeng Zhi also planted a few wild jujube trees he just found on the edge of the pond, this kind of wild jujube is called Feng'er eye by the locals, the shape is small and beautiful, and the taste is also excellent, but the fruit is very small, the locals like to eat, but rarely plant.
For other wild fruits, including yew, Zeng Zhi also chose a suitable place in the Qinglian Secret Realm and transplanted them.
Deep in the depths of this Nanwu Mountain, this area is rarely entered by humans, and only local medicine farmers and hunters occasionally pass by. Therefore, there are a lot of common wild fruits, but now they have all been moved into the Qinglian Secret Realm by Zeng Zhi.
This is why Zeng Zhi is now a person, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so well, at least he had to find a lot of excuses to avoid others.
The reason why wild fruit trees are called wild fruits is that they cannot withstand large-scale planting. Either the fruit is small, or the fruit is difficult, and some have a sour taste that cannot be eaten.
But Zeng Zhi doesn't need to think about the low achievement rate, no matter how difficult the results are, he is confident that there will be a bumper harvest. But the taste is not good, but it is a fatal wound, several kinds of mountain persimmons and wild orange trees, he did not plant in the space.
In the orchards of the village, there are excellent varieties that have been cultivated and matured, and both the fruit yield and the taste can stand the test.
Although he found a lot of common fruit trees, he couldn't find the tea trees he had been looking for. Either the tea tree is too old, or the type is not good, and the taste of the tea is too poor. To transplant such a wild tea tree, it is better to find it from the village.
And Zeng Zhi's transplantation of these Chinese medicinal materials and wild fruit trees is actually very simple. Those smaller plants, he directly pulled them up, harvested them into the Qinglian Secret Realm, and controlled them with his consciousness, where he wanted to plant them, it was a matter of thought.
If the plant is large, it is also not troublesome, use the Qinglian Secret Realm to aim at the target, collect it directly, and then control it with the same mind, and plant it wherever you want.
"Keep looking in the mountains, you can always find it, after all, those people can't disappear out of thin air. Hey...... There seems to be a dilapidated temple on the top of the hill in front, Yuan Ling, will they go there? ”
Thinking so, Zeng Zhi asked the silver wolf Xiaoyin to speed up his pace, wanting to reach the opposite peak. And this peak, if Zeng Zhi remembers correctly, should be the top of Zengjiagou, the second highest peak of Nanwu Mountain.
Zeng Zhi was not surprised to find a temple in this Nanwu Mountain, because there was no shortage of various ruins in this mountain. For example, the flag peak in the several peaks of Nanwu Mountain, it is not only a plateau grassland with peculiar terrain, but also a group of ancient ruins.
The ancient ruins that have been inherited to this day include the Flag Peak, the Flag-raising Village, the Flag Dam, the Anleping, Dongjiawan, the Gongjiawu Field, etc., and these relics all have distinctive characteristics of the times. Correspondingly, there are ancient commercial ports, ancient lakes and ancient ferries that have been pierced to the bottom, and smelting sites of silver, copper, lead and zinc.
………………
When Zeng Zhi rode the silver wolf Xiaoyin to the foot of the mountain at the top of Zengjiagou, he found that the dilapidated temple he had seen from a distance before actually emitted a faint fire. In this way, Zeng Zhi was basically sure that Yuan Ling and the others were indeed here.
Zeng Zhi got down from the back of the silver wolf Xiaoyin, and was about to order it to become smaller, when there was a gust of wind behind him. Zeng Zhi looked back and found that the golden tiger and golden retriever were running towards this side.
When the golden tiger and golden retriever arrived, Zeng Zhi asked, "Have you sent people out safely?" ”
The Golden Tiger Golden Retriever nodded. Zeng Zhi said: "That's good, other people should have also found it, and today's action is about to complete the merits." Xiaoyin, call all your men back. ”
Silver Wolf Xiaoyin agreed, and then "Woo ......" a wolf howl, followed by the "Woo ......" wolf howl in the mountains, which were all Silver Wolf Xiaoyin's subordinates responding to him.
After a while, the wolves returned one after another.
After Zeng Zhi made sure that all the wolves had returned, Zeng Zhi put all of them into the Qinglian Secret Realm, and then ordered the Golden Tiger Golden Retriever and the Silver Wolf Xiaoyin to shrink their bodies and go up the mountain with him.
This mountain is still relatively dangerous, although Zeng Zhi has now cultivated the qi refining technique to the second level, but in this big mountain, he still has to be careful, so he decided to let the golden tiger golden retriever and the silver wolf Xiaoyin follow him.
………………
In a dilapidated temple near the top of the ditch of Zengjia, seven young men in their early twenties were roasting a fire, eating wild fruits found in the mountains to satisfy their hunger, watching the heavy rain outside, and talking and laughing with great interest.
These seven people are the Yuan Ling and his party who made the management of the forest park and the leaders of the village at the two levels anxious. In the afternoon, because of the heavy rain, they lost their way in a hurry, and unconsciously came to the top of the ditch of Zeng's house, and after accidentally discovering this dilapidated temple, they ran in to avoid the rain.
The temple is somewhat dilapidated, but it is still sheltered from the rain. In addition, they also found a few flower roses outside the temple, and although they are still a little green, they still eat with relish under the extreme hunger.
The so-called teenagers don't know the taste of sorrow, these young people who have just walked out of the ivory tower, after solving the crisis of survival, actually in this dilapidated temple, roasting the fire and talking about the ideal of life, the atmosphere is quite warm, even if the sky outside is getting dark.
"Whew......" A wolf howl interrupted everyone's interest. Immediately, the howls of wolves echoed through the mountains and forests, and for a moment no one could tell where the beast was hiding.
At this time, a few young people remembered those legends about the fierce beasts in the Nanwu Mountain, and one by one they no longer dared to squeak, trembling under the fire light in the darkness.
