Chapter 3 Types of Mallets
Time flies quickly, in the blink of an eye, Qin Cang is already an adult, but his father Qin Yulin did not let him get in touch with the matter of catching ginseng too early, in a way, this industry will harm many people, and the fate of being cursed is not so easy to break, originally Qin Yulin hoped that before he had to tell Qin Cang the whole thing, through his own efforts and the efforts of his clansmen, as long as he caught this ethereal king of ginseng, the curse would naturally be broken. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info However, I didn't expect that at that time, a war criminal suddenly came to the village where the life was quiet and peaceful, the people who hunted the ginseng were not Taoist priests, and they did not have the ability to look at the stars and peep into the sky, but from a side perspective, there were many taboos in the deep mountains and old forests, which could not be explained by science, and there were countless supernatural things, Qin Yulin easily felt that this war criminal would bring ruin to the village. So, he tried his best to dissuade the village chief from banishing the war criminals, but no one listened to him at all, and in the end, Qin Yulin moved out of the village with his clansmen.
At that time, Qin Cang didn't understand, he was just a stranger, why was his father so nervous? Years later, when he returned to the village, he realized how serious the situation really was.
This is the way things have happened in the past, the fate of the ginseng catcher was cursed a long time ago, unless the blood ginseng is in the world, there is no way to crack it at all, the reason why Qin Yulin told Qin Cang this is that he hopes that he can inherit his mantle and continue to search for blood ginseng. However, after Qin Cang heard this, he obviously couldn't accept it for a while, he really didn't understand, since the fate of the ginseng hunter had already been doomed, why did his father ruthlessly let himself go through the pain he experienced?
"Child, I know you blame me, but there are many people in the world who are suffering from the curse of blood ginseng, our Qin clan, since a long time ago, has been adhering to the wish passed down from our ancestors, and has devoted their lives to capturing blood ginseng, you are my only son, and you may not know that you have a special ability, although you can't see the spirit body, but you have a strong perception, which is very helpful for catching ginseng."
"How did I never know I had this ability"?
Qin Cang wasn't lying, he really didn't know when he had this ability, and he didn't feel anything unusual in his daily life.
"When you were a child, this ability was very strong, in order to let you grow up better, I can only keep telling you, it's just your illusion, and over time your heart will accept this statement, but now as long as you can feel it with your heart, you will definitely find something, I hope you don't resist, because from the moment you are reincarnated as a son, catching ginseng is your only profession in this life, and catching blood ginseng is also your destined mission in this life."
Qin Cang stopped talking, he knew that no matter how reluctant he was, it was useless, in fact, when he decided to come to his father for an appointment, he was already mentally prepared, because everything was as his father said, he couldn't integrate into society and live a normal life at all, which was tantamount to harming others.
"For the ginseng industry, you know very limited, now I will tell you the secret method, as long as you keep it in mind and cooperate with your special ability, I believe that you will definitely turn evil into good fortune."
Qin Cang pricked up his ears and listened carefully to what his father said, in the past, although he and his father kept wandering in various deep mountains, but his father did not tell him how to catch ginseng, but forced Qin Cang to remember many taboos, it seems that at that time his father was already mentally prepared to become a ginseng hunter.
At this time, his father Qin Yulin's voice sounded again.
"Wild ginseng, which is called a mallet in the industry, absorbs the spirit of the earth, has spiritual wisdom, especially the ginseng that is old, is even more erratic, and there is generally no ginseng in the place where someone has set foot in, if you find ginseng in the future, you must keep in mind the secret of catching ginseng. Stick mallet, quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit, do not be anxious when you see it, red thread, naturally tied up, wild ginseng can be distinguished from the color of the age, under normal circumstances, ten to ninety years of ginseng is basically formed, the beard is slender, the body is earthy yellow, this ginseng is a great supplement. More than 100 years, it is the beard is thick and strong, the earthy yellow fades, the emerald green is all over the body, this kind of ginseng is of great value, the appearance and beauty, the role of nourishing yin and yang is very obvious, the other is the whole body is covered with red and green two colors, most of the beard is degraded and broken, do not encounter this kind of ginseng, do not contaminate its juice, it will kill people in an instant, because it has evolved towards blood ginseng, but it has not yet been fully formed, it still needs to go through more than a hundred years, the last one, is what I said, blood ginseng, That is the king of ginseng, the whole body is blood-red, there is no beard, it takes thousands of years to mature, things about it are basically derived from legends, it is said that its juice can be brought back to life, eating its flesh can also achieve the miracle effect of rejuvenation, your mission is to find this blood ginseng, break the curse".
After finishing speaking, Qin Yulin looked at Qin Cang, it was understandable that so many things could not be digested for a while, but looking at Qin Cang's appearance, there was a look of disbelief, which made Qin Yulin feel very uncomfortable.
"What? You don't believe what I say"?
"Dad, I believe everything you said about ginseng, but since the blood ginseng only exists in legends, you have spent a lifetime for this thing that may not exist, and in the end you still haven't been able to find it, if the blood ginseng is gone after so many years, how can I find it?"
"Shut up, you unfilial son, do you know how painful it was when your mother died? It's all cursed, I've spent my whole life looking for blood ginseng, you can question it, you go, I don't have a son like you, I have no ambition."
Qin Cang never thought that just one sentence would anger his father to such a point, and it seems that some bottom lines still can't be touched.
"I know, I'm sorry Dad, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to fulfill your unfulfilled wishes."
Hearing his son say this, Qin Yulin's mood eased a little, and then he said earnestly.
"Hey, it's not that I'm going to force you, but there's a long way to go, I know this road will be very difficult, you will encounter all kinds of bizarre and difficult things, I'm almost at the time when the oil runs out, this broken temple will be my last place, I just hope you can break the curse, for you and for more ginseng hunters, can you promise me"?
The sunlight shone on his father's body through the gap between the trees, Qin Cang looked at his father's aging face and nodded firmly.
