It was almost noon, and everyone was a little tired from walking in the swamp just now, so they sat down directly on the ground and rested. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Everyone gathered in a circle, and a black cauldron in the middle was boiling the fish brain of catfish essence, and bursts of fragrance continued to waft out of the pot, and everyone who was greedy swallowed their saliva.
"When I was a child, my master and I also caught a fish essence in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, which is a black fish essence, which is a great supplement for the fish brain that has become a essence, and it is definitely a delicacy in the world." Ma Daochang said as he stared at the fish brain in the pot.
The head of the catfish essence is very large, and there are also a lot of fish brains in it, and there is a lot left after boiling a pot. Soon the cooked fish brain was divided by everyone, and when eaten, the taste was a little like tofu, but the aroma and taste were completely incomparable to tofu. Among the people, only Venerable Shadi did not eat, but was eating with some hard dry food, after all, as a monk, he could never break his vows, and it is estimated that even if the dragon meat was placed in front of him, Venerable Shadi would not have any appetite.
After resting for about an hour, the group continued on their way.
"Entered the Shimen Pass, no one is still alive" since last night has been missing two people, and also met a difficult catfish essence, if it weren't for the black-faced man who claimed to be General Mang's rescue, Jianjun may have returned to the underworld, and the black-faced man General Mang, the moment he turned into a python, Jianjun knew his identity, because with the newspaper horse next to Jianguo, the python is the same, whether it is color or variety, it is the same, but it is magnified a lot.
The effect of fish brain is very good, it is indeed as Ma Daochang said, it is very nourishing, and everyone's mental state has obviously been improved and improved after eating.
The crowd continued to walk upstream along the Sancha River, the turbulent river and the surrounding cliffs gave people a very steep and beautiful feeling, but the crowd walked quite slowly, because there was no road at all, and they could only clear the branches and open the way by the mountain runner who led the way.
Jianjun walking doesn't know why, he always feels that something is staring at him, this feeling is very weird, but when he looks around left and right, this feeling disappears, and if he continues to walk, this feeling appears again, repeatedly, many times, it is like this, Jianjun has to give up.
The drizzle fell from the sky, although the clothes of the people were thick, but they could not stand the slippery and muddy road, fortunately, there were cliffs on both sides of the river, and everyone saw that the rain had a tendency to get bigger and bigger, so they had to walk next to the cliffs, so that they could still have a place to rely on, and they could also find a cave to shelter from the rain.
The rain began to fall heavier, but soon the people found shelter.
These eleven caves are not big, five or six meters long and three or four meters wide, although the space is not large, but it is enough for everyone to use it for shelter from the rain.
The temperature of the campfire dispelled the slightly damp cold of the crowd and baked the walls around the cave.
"I don't think the rain will stop for a while and a half, but it's enough to choke in the afternoon to continue walking." A mountain runner spoke.
"It's going to be a waste of time again." Jianjun also echoed helplessly.
Outside the cave, the drizzle continued, and the breeze blew into the cave from time to time, and a large amount of fog began to condense outside the cave, and a small amount of fog flowed down the ground into the cave.
Ma Daochang, who was holding the compass, kept staring at the compass, and Jianjun was sitting next to Ma Daochang at this time, only to see that the needle of the compass was constantly trembling slightly, very unstable and irregular.
"Since entering Shimen Pass, the compass has been like this, I estimate that there should be metal minerals interfering with the compass pointer near here, if the compass can't be used, it will be very troublesome." Ma Daochang said.
"The terrain here is complicated, and there are spirits, I don't think this dragon vein will be easy for us to catch, right?" Jianjun said while looking at Ma Daochang's compass.
"What we can do now is to do our best to obey the destiny of heaven, and we must do our best to succeed or not." Liu Laodao interjected.
"Everything has a cause and effect, and it is not to be forced. Don't worry too much, don't worry. Venerable Shadi was meditating with his eyes closed, and when he heard everyone chatting, he also opened his mouth to speak.
Indeed, what Master Shi Di said, Jianjun also understands, cause and effect is the most ethereal existence in the world, although it cannot be seen or touched, but it has an impact on everyone, if everyone stops the occurrence of the disaster in Tangshan in the future, it may save a lot of people, but also, it will also bear a huge cause and effect. But if everyone already knows that there will be a catastrophe in the future, affecting the trend of thousands of lives, but they don't care, the cause and effect may be a little smaller, but this will definitely not pass the level in everyone's hearts.
Because of the rain, it gets dark very quickly, and the rain tends to get heavier and heavier, and everyone chats around the campfire in the cave, anyway, the rain seems to be going to stop for a while, and it is getting late, and everyone will not continue to walk.
In two days, everyone walked nearly 70 kilometers, the army and the runners were fine, after all, they were not very old, and Liu Laodao was old, and the two days of long-distance trekking did make everyone very tired, I don't know when, everyone snuggled up to the stone wall and fell asleep in their bags, and the snoring sounded from time to time from the small cave. Jianjun leaned on the stone wall and fell asleep like everyone else.
Because of the rain, the cold wind at night was even more biting than last night, and the moisture in the air seemed to be frozen, and the cold made people shiver.
Jianjun was woken up by the cold, and when he woke up, he found that the bonfire was about to go out, and the sleeping people forgot that they should arrange a vigil before going to bed, so no one added firewood even when the bonfire was about to be extinguished.
Jianjun rubbed his sleepy eyes, got up and came to the outside of the cave, he wanted to find some firewood, the moon at this time hung high in the sky, it seemed that it should be midnight, and the rain had stopped, the road outside the cave was a little muddy, but fortunately, there were a few dead trees not far from the entrance of the cave, Jianjun walked over and split a few branches and not too thick trunks, although after the rain washing, these are a little wet, but it will certainly not affect the burning.
Holding a large handful of firewood, Jianjun turned around and walked towards the cave.
A black shadow suddenly flashed into the cave from the mouth of the cave, and it was fleeting, and the speed was very fast, but it was still seen by Jianjun. Three steps and two steps Jianjun walked directly into the cave, everyone was still asleep, Jianjun put down the firewood in his arms, looked around carefully, and found nothing, and was no different from the cave when he went out just now.
The bonfire was slowly burned by the Jianjun, or it was very prosperous, and the cave that was not very illuminated was very bright and warm. Jianjun was still vigilant and kept an eye on the cave, because he didn't believe that he was dazzled, but there was indeed no abnormality found in the cave, which made Jianjun puzzled and vigilant.
