Chapter 81 The Official Seal Fish Cave
Wulin Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Spirit Vein Tribulation!
The narrow path of the Zizhu River is extremely rugged, with deep ravines and shrubs on both sides, and the road is full of mud, and the valley is humid and muddy.
The dragon eyes look up at the mountains, the peaks are majestic, the rocks are piercing the air, the trees are high and the forest is deep, this place is the place where the dragon's feet are the dragon veins, the mountain is the potential of the dragon, the water is the blood of the dragon, and the southwest direction is even more mysterious.
Long Ziyan asked, "Old man, was this a highway before?" ”
"Oh, it's an abandoned country road."
This highway is going upstream, judging from the current road conditions, it is still a country road of the age, but I don't understand why a good road is abandoned.
The old man explained: "Actually, this abandoned road along the river valley we are traveling along is an ancient salt road, and I heard my grandfather tell me that in a long historical period, people carried horses and horses from Wuxi Daning Factory on the other side of Shennongjia to transport salt, which is the kind of hard life of the poor people's meat." At that time, because the journey was too difficult and dangerous, even on this ancient salt road, the price of salt was so expensive that "big scale fungus small scale salt" and "big bucket bud valley small scale salt".
"Because it is extremely difficult to cross the highest Shennongjia area in the whole of Central China. Just in the middle of the salt road not far from Guanfeng Township, there is a Tianchi Ya, the altitude is 2,100 meters, the top of the mountain is a pool of water, the bottom of the mountain is an abyss, if you want to climb over it, you must climb a hundred steps of ladders to climb around the water's edge, even the most powerful porter is regarded as the cloudy sky. "Fog is born from human faces, and clouds rise from horses' heads" - this is the true portrayal of people summed up at that time. ”
Purple Kite praised: "I really admire you very much, you can overcome any difficulties, and nothing can stop you from moving forward." ”
The old man's face became heavy and said: "Thank you for the girl's praise, the sinister nature is still second, the most terrible is people, at that time, to pass through this mountain high emperor far away, you must go together, otherwise you will be weak and alone If you encounter the robbers who gather in the mountains and forests, you will often not even be able to save your life, so far, there are small place names such as "nine lives" on this ancient salt road, and this "nine lives" is said to be named because there are 9 salt workers who were robbed of salt by a group of strongmen, and people were tied to the big tree and died of starvation.
"It's cruel to have such a thing."
Lao Li Tou jokingly scared the purple kite and said, "It's the nine trees around you." ”
"Ahh Purple Kite was so frightened that she hid far away and blamed Lao Li Tou not to scare her.
Seeing that the time was already eleven forty, the purple kite, which was rumbling with hunger, broke off a branch of a pine tree and put it on the tip of its nose, closed its eyes, and the elegant rosin asked people to forget their hunger, and the mountains filled with the fragrance of rosin made it as if the soul would go out of the body at any time.
"Ahh The purple kite screamed again.
The three of them were frightened back to reality by the screams, and Longgang asked, "What happened?" ”
"Look at a cave over there," following the direction of the purple kite's finger, a cave mouth appeared on the side of the mountain wall not far from the Zizhu River, slightly higher than the Zizhu River, and the stream flowing out of the Guanfeng Fish Cave flowed into the Zizhu River. ”
The old man said quietly on the side: "It seems that it has arrived, and the time is still in time, and the official seal the fish cave." ”
It turns out that this "official seal fish hole", the legend is that after the first spring thunder of the year, a large number of fish began to gush out like the river and the sea.
According to the old man: "I don't know from what era, every year in the rainy season of the lunar valley, as soon as the spring thunder sounds, the water at the entrance of the Guanfeng Fish Cave begins to turn yellow and then become turbid, the length of a tail chopsticks, about a pound of weight, no scales and no armor, white as silver The fish will shake their heads and tail and compete to gush out of the hole, as soon as the fish appear, soon, the river surface ditch near the cave will shine like a silver stream. ”
"At that time, I was very young, up and down the river, and the crowd that had been waiting for a long time to watch the fish and catch the fish immediately boiled and made a noise, and people stood with scoops, baskets, and bags on the water, squeezing, shouting, shouting, and shouting, scooping with baskets, grasping with their hands, and blocking with their pockets...... If it is night, it is a torch blazing, illuminating the surface of the river at the mouth of the cave, which can be seen for several miles. ”
Brother Kan listened and half-believed: "Are there so many fish?" Old man, I don't read much, don't lie to me. ”
"Gua Wazi, I can lie to you at an age, when the fish hole comes out of the fish to the climax, more than a scoop can scoop up three or five catties, the official seal fish hole fish out of the time of at least two days a year, the longest out of seven days and seven nights, less can produce more than 2,000 catties, more than tens of thousands of catties in many years, and each fish has a fish lice in the belly, this fish lice is milky white, the size of broad beans, and all fours. When the belly of the fish is first out of the belly, it can still crawl on the ground, the mountain people found that the fish lice is a miracle medicine, can treat choking and eating diseases, so they collect the fish lice, dry and grind into fine and not soaked in wine, once they get sick, the medicine is eliminated from the disease, it is very effective. ”
The more the four of them listened, the more evil they felt, it was already amazing that a stone cave could fish out, and it was really unbelievable that it could cure diseases and save people, and they couldn't hide their curiosity to see the true face of this fish as soon as possible.
Lao Li Tou continued to walk and said: "Folk legend in ancient times, Emperor Yan Shennong's in order to relieve the suffering of the people, in Shennongjia set up a frame to collect medicine, knotted rope for the ladder to taste a hundred herbs, once from the fish hole not far from the black dragon cave beheaded a poisonous demon into a dragon, Shennong's dragon bone meat crushed into fish roe, in winter in the underground river to raise, in the spring famine, thousands of fish roe has grown into thousands of small fish, small fish swim out of the hole to solve the famine. As for the fish lice, it was transformed by the fragments of the heart and liver of the poisonous dragon, and the Shennong clan asked it to fight the poison with poison and treat the people with diseases. ”
Long Ziyan felt that it was wrong and asked: "Old man, you said that the fish came out of the fish cave for at least two days, that is, these two days?" And what did it mean in the first place? ”
Lao Li Tou was silent, and took the four of them to the entrance of the Guanfeng Fish Cave, and walked in to see that the Guanfeng Fish Cave was actually the outlet of an underground dark river flowing to the Zizhu River.
"Where's the fish?" The purple kite looked at the water outlet at the mouth of the cave.
"No fish." What Lao Li Tou said was an understatement.
"Gone?"
"It's a pity, this "official seal fish hole" has long been out of fish, since the eighties have never been out of fish, has completely become a legend, I have not seen it for decades, to tell you, even if this mysterious Shennongjia, human damage to the ecology is also very serious. If the ecological environment improves, the fish in the fish hole may still appear. ”
