Chapter 596: Something Isn't Right
Fang Gang smiled and said, "That's right, that's why we just found here, and we want to ask for the help of Master Long Po Jian." Originally, we wanted to go to the temples in Udon Thani, but we saw too many good believers, and when the time came, if the news leaked, many people would be moved by the wind and run to the mountains to find it. Not only can't you find it, but it will also disturb the big wild boar, so no one will want to find it. Long Po Jian nodded as she listened.
Lao Xie called his two friends, and they fled in panic because they had encountered wild boars in the mountains. I accidentally broke my arm and had some trauma. I have to go to Nayong's hospital for disposal, and I can't get there until tomorrow. So the three of us stayed in the temple that day, and the Thai monks could eat meat, so our food was not bad.
At noon the next day, two strong but very short men came, estimated to be only 1.6 meters tall, but they were muscular, and they looked a little similar. After Lao Xie's introduction, I learned that these two were cousins. I have forgotten their names, in fact, many Thai names are a test of memory, in the previous experience, everything involving Thai names, basically pseudonyms. Only a handful of Southeast Asian figures remember their real names, but they have also been modified. For example, Deng Kang and Pi Tao and others, if there are readers who want to find out who they are, don't bother.
For the sake of convenience, let's call these two people who are looking for blessing materials for monks and Azan in the deep mountains "Brother Shenshan" and "Brother Shenshan". The two of them told Long Po Jane about their experience. Long Po Jian asked him if he still remembered the route, and the two said that maybe it was possible, they had not been to that deep mountain before, so they could only remember it.
I couldn't help but ask, "Master Long Po Jian, what exactly is the mud plant?" What's the use? ”
"No one knows where it comes from, only that it exists in rocks, and it can flow out in liquid form, and when it encounters air, it will immediately become a hard thing, like iron and stone, and it has all kinds of colors, and its effects are different. Some can increase luck, some can keep you safe, and some can make people feel that their wealth is surprisingly good. It doesn't need to be blessed, just wear it directly, use a few special things to raise, and you can also get different reactions, such as water, honey, wine, blood, and so on. It's just that the reaction of the blood is unpredictable, and it is generally not advisable to persuade the believer to try. ”
To be honest, the more I listened, the more confused I became, and in the past two days, three people have explained to me about this thing, but I just haven't figured it out, and only when I see it with my own eyes can I have some concrete understanding.
On the same day, Luang Po Jian asked his apprentices to call the wealthy benevolents and tell them about the mud, and two of them expressed great interest and said that they could donate at least 50,000 baht. Fang Gang and Lao Xie, with the help of the Shenshan brothers, roughly listed the manpower and tools needed to go into the mountains to find them, and calculated the cost.
100,000 baht is equivalent to 20,000 yuan, which is not much, but Thailand's special price and labor are cheaper than China's. So that's probably enough.
A few days later, the two good businessmen came to the temple in person, and after the three of us and the brothers of the deep mountain met and talked with him, they happily took out 50,000 baht each and entrusted us to do it immediately.
Out of the mountain to Nayong County. Fang Gang and Lao Xie found five or six helpers under the contact of the Shenshan brothers, and got a few long and short guns and powerful anesthetic guns. Thailand, like the United States, protects the right of citizens to bear arms, and there are many gun shops in dozens of major cities. Although only Thai nationals can buy guns, since there are gun shops everywhere in the country and there are many manufacturing factories, it is easier to buy guns on the black market than for citizens to use their documents to buy guns in gun shops, as long as you have money.
I deliberately went over and touched those guns. It's very heavy, I touched a real gun for the first time in my life, and I was trembling when I held it in my hand, for fear of going off, but in fact, I didn't have a bullet at all, but I was weak. In addition to manpower and guns, there are also necessary grappling hooks, ropes, electronic compasses, and camping tools. To be honest, I didn't want to participate, so I quietly discussed with Fang Gang if I could stay in the temple and wait for news. Fang Gang glared at me: "So many people are not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Have you ever fired a gun? I shook my head repeatedly. Fang Gang said that he could equip me with a pistol to experience the feeling of hunting in the mountains, but I quickly refused, although my heart was still very itchy. For men, it's natural to like cars, watches, and guns, and I'm no exception, usually the desktop of the computer is the American M4A1 carbine, but when I meet the real one, I don't dare at all.
Lao Xie also discussed with Fang Gang, he was fat and short-legged. It must be a burden to enter the mountain, ask if you can stay. Fang Gang said: "Don't worry, old fox, even if you want to follow, I don't agree." When the time comes, you can't walk again, and we have to carry you. Lao Xie's face suddenly bloomed with joy, and I envied him.
In the team that entered the mountain, except for me, Fang Gang and the Shenshan brothers, there were only those helpers, and it was impossible for the two wealthy businessmen to follow, they were only responsible for paying the money, and they were not obliged to participate, after all, it was dangerous. And although Master Long Po Jian is already in his fifties, he must also follow, because if there is mud nearby, as long as he can sense it. In addition to him in the temple of Papukong. Cultivation can't compare with him. Luang Po Jane became a monk at the age of 11 and has been practicing for more than 40 years, and when he was meditating in the woods to practice the Dharma, a poisonous snake brought the fruit from the tree in front of him, which shows the depth of his cultivation.
Master Luang Po Jian picked two young monks to accompany him. Everyone began to enter the mountain. Fang Gang was driving a pickup truck, and Master Long Po Jian was sitting in the car, and I was sitting in the back compartment with two monks and Brother Shenshan and others, and I also brought dozens of catties of frozen beef, in order to lure out the wild boar. Brother Shenshan took those helpers to hike into the mountain. Everyone first entered the deep mountains from the western end of Shagong Nakong, and Fang Gang parked the car by a river to meet with Brother Shenshan and others.
There was a person left in the car to answer and sentry, and the deep mountain brothers led everyone into the mountains to find it by memory. Fang Gang asked him if he remembered clearly, and both of them said that they had to work hard to find it, there was no map for this kind of terrain, and the compass could only point in the direction, but it could not be located, after all, they didn't have a high-tech thing like GPS.
In this way, under the guidance of the two brothers. From early morning to evening, they did not find the place where they met the wild boar. The road must have been wrong, because when the two brothers entered the mountain from the western end, they encountered a wild boar before noon. However, everyone is mentally prepared, because the two are not familiar with the terrain. It's almost impossible to find the right path once you want to. Fortunately, we have a satellite phone, so even if we get lost, call the person who picks us up at the pickup and he will set off smoke bombs to show us the way.
Every hour, we would cut two pounds of frozen beef and throw it on a jutting rock, and then hide in the dark to observe. Generally, wild boars are caught in the deep mountains in this way to attract wild boars to come out to eat meat, and people looking for mud are also like this, the difference is that wild boars cannot be hunted after they come out. Instead, let it go back after it has eaten enough, and people will follow behind it, and you will be able to find its pig nest.
At night, I camped in the mountains looking for a back slope, northern Thailand is not as hot as the central and southern regions, but there are also a lot of mosquitoes. The search continued the next day. Suddenly, I felt a familiar place, a tributary of a river, so thin that it was running out of water, and beside it there were two large round rocks, with a thick tree in the center.
Because this scene is very similar to the man's place, I was joking with Fang Gang and Lao Xie at that time, asking them if they looked like it.
I looked at Fang Gang, who had obviously found this thing as well, so I asked Brother Shenshan, "Do you have any impression of this place?" This thing is a lot like a man's gun and cannon. ”
"It doesn't seem to be ......," Brother Fukayama looked at, "It's very similar, but we didn't pass by here at the beginning, so if there were, we should have an impression." "Fang Gang and I looked at each other and didn't speak.
From morning to noon, and then to afternoon, everyone was so tired that they sat down on a huge rock to rest and drink water. Fang Gang asked Long Po Jian if she felt unwell, and Long Po Jian shook her head: "Five years ago, I practiced alone in the deep mountains north of Chiang Rai for two and a half months, and after eating dry food, I only relied on collecting wild fruits to drink river water, so this is nothing at all. ”
I sat next to me eating compressed cookies. Suddenly, I saw a stone wall in the distance with incomprehensible words carved into it.
