Chapter Forty-Nine

"They have nothing to do with us now, it's like two parallel lines, there will be no more intersections."

"I just hope that your injuries can be healed quickly, and then with the money we deserve, I will go back and continue to run my entertainment store, you go back and think about doing some business or something, we are all old, and it is time to find a daughter-in-law to start a family." I said with a little sadness.

Shanzi glared and said, "Are you still looking for a daughter-in-law?" There's only one in this house! ”

I ignored him, looked up at the starry sky, and sighed, anyway, we took another step forward on the way home.

Shanzi wanted to say something again, but then Lai Shatuo came out, and looking at his expression, he seemed a little excited.

"The owner of this house thanked me for giving him this prescription, he just told me that tomorrow he will help find a few people, and the local medicine picker will go up the mountain with us to find Dendrobium!"

Shanzi and I were both happy at once, "That's great! ”

"What prescription did you write for him?"

"It was to treat his daughter's strange disease, I saw a case of her disease the year before last, and it was very tricky at first, but then I slowly pondered it, and I also prepared medicine, and cured the person. Today, it just happened to be used again, and it even helped us a lot! ”

"Doctor Lai, you are our nobleman!" I'm glad I'm already starting to pat him on the back, even though I hate people who pat him the most.

Shanzi even stiffened his neck and gave a thumbs up to Lai Shatuo, "Awesome, Lai, it seems that my neck is going to get better just around the corner!" I'm optimistic about you! ”

"I'll use you to watch it!" Raishata's face was full of disdain.

"Let's talk about it first, I didn't say that this problem of yours could be cured, and I have never seen this symptom." Raisha laughed again, "However, I can use you as a test subject." ”

"Test me? Of course you can, but you have to take me as an apprentice. "As long as Shanzi sees something rare about him, he wants to learn it.

"I figured it out myself, so why should I teach you! Dead goblins, I won't teach a goblin to learn medicine, you'll die of this heart! With that, Raisha pulled his face and turned back to the house.

Shanzi still stiffened his neck and yelled at Lai Shatuo: "You go back to Lao Tzu, who are you scolding for the dead goblin!" You're a dead goblin, a dead goblin with eight claws! When Lao Tzu is healed, the first one will kill you! ”

"Tomorrow, the money for the workers will still be paid by you!" Then came the voice of Raishada in the room.

I slept normally that night, and although I didn't continue to have nightmares, I still felt groggy when I woke up.

I asked Shanzi and Chunnier to stay, Shanzi is injured and can't stand the toss, this is not a light job to go up and down the mountain, and it will be even worse if it catches up with the rain.

"Chun Nier, you stay and take care of Shanzi, we can come back in four or five days, and then let Dr. Lai see what method can be used to heal his injuries."

Chuniel walked over slowly, her eyes fixed on me, "What were you thinking about last night's dinner, tell me." ”

"I didn't think about anything."

"Ding Jia, I know what you must be thinking, is it that the person who said that the people of the golden life died near the Phoenix Cave, and you started to worry."

Chuniel grabbed my arm, her eyes full of concern, "Ding Jia, tell me, you" She paused, and then stopped talking.

"I'm not a golden person, you think too much, don't worry." I smiled at Chuniel, and although I smiled stiffly, I hoped that this stiff smile would make her stop worrying about me, even a little.

Chuniel let go of her hand and said to me with a little doubt, "Okay. ”

I put my hands on her shoulders, still smiling and saying to her, "Help me take care of Shanzi, and help me take care of yourself." ”

"Well, I listen to you, you have to be careful on the road." She rolled her eyes, and quickly put her mouth to my ear again, "What a heart, there are so many of them, it's too easy to do anything to you on the road!" ”

"Don't worry, don't worry about me."

"That's good!" Chuniel's face flushed, "Ding Jia, I'll miss you." ”

Shanzi also told me to pay attention on the road, if it really doesn't work, I don't want any bullshit dendrobium, just go home. I reassured him that Lai Shatuo had left some small bottles for Shanzi, and the medicine in them was for him to take once a day to prevent another attack at night.

The man found three more people, all of whom made a living by collecting medicines, and Lai Shatuo negotiated the price with them, and our group of six set off towards the back mountain of Cen Wang Lao Mountain.

We walked for half a day to reach the foot of the back mountain, which was densely covered with cedar trees, and the midday sun shone on the woods, and a few rays of light fell through the gaps in the trees on the thick leaves of the trees, and there was no way up here.

The man said to us, almost no one comes to this back mountain, usually at most some medicine workers walk by, not only there is no road here, and there are many snakes hidden under the thick leaves, there are more than 30 kinds of poisonous snakes alone, he reminded everyone must pay attention to their feet, if there is any movement, do not act rashly.

The thing he said last night is still tangled in my heart, I don't know what awaits me on the mountain this time, if everything is okay, it is my creation, but as he said, maybe this will be my destination, but I am most sorry for Shanzi.

I shook my head and didn't let myself think about it anymore, so I quickly changed into non-slip shoes and non-slip gloves with them, and went up the hill with tools on my back.

To say that this back mountain, but it is really not ordinary people can climb, it seems to be a flat ground, step on those leaves and collapse a large piece, in the middle of several times have broken feet, a worker accidentally rolled down, we quickly pulled him up again.

We slowly entered the inside of the mountain, and the dense cedar forest barely saw the sunlight anymore, and the sense of direction was getting worse and worse.

The six of us rested a few times, and in the evening, before we reached the Phoenix Cave, we found a relatively flat ground, set up a tent on the spot, and prepared to eat something and rest.

At night, the mountain is not only quiet and scary, but also very cold, we are all frozen and begin to shiver, I suggest a fire, one can be roasted, the other is to heat.

But as soon as the four of them heard that I was going to make a fire, they all became very frightened, and quickly shook their heads again and again, "No, no, no." ”

Raishata also taught me a similar lesson, "Make a fire? There are so many dead leaves in this forest, you are looking for death! ”

The man shook his head and said, "It's not because of this, we have a legend here, if someone makes a fire on the mountain at night, the fire phoenix in the phoenix cave will fly out when it sees it, and the fire on its body will burn the entire Cen Wang Lao Mountain." ”

After he finished speaking, the other three people also had solemn faces and kept nodding, "Yes, that is, no one dares to break the rules handed down by the ancestors." ”

"What kind of bird legend is this!" Lai Shatuo muttered disdainfully, "It's just that I'm afraid of causing a mountain fire." ”

"Where the hell is the Phoenix Cave?" I wrapped my clothes around my body and put my hands to my mouth and sighed.

"At the waterfall, it'll be there by noon tomorrow." The man said to me.

I looked at the mountains in the distance, although it was dark, but I still couldn't hide the joy in my heart, if nothing else, I should be able to pick dendrobium tomorrow.

As soon as it was light, we got up to pack our tents and other tools, the morning in the mountains was colder than the night, the clouds were shrouded in mist, and the occasional bird chirping could be heard.

The man and a few other villagers prepared something to eat, and we set off immediately after dinner.

The higher the mountain road went, the more difficult it became, there was no place at all that was smooth, there were more and more stones under our feet, and the whole mountain began to become steeper, and by noon we were not halfway to the distance we had yesterday, and everyone was already sweating profusely.

"Whew, whew, how far is it" I raised my hand to wipe the sweat beads from my eyebrows, and asked the man breathlessly.

"Soon, soon, go to the waterfall first, and when you see the waterfall, you will be there." His physical strength was not bad, and he tightened the rope on his leggings with both hands, and began to climb up again.

After walking for about an hour, slowly, we heard some chaotic sounds in our ears, from far and near, like the sound of flowing water.

"There is the sound of water!" I was a little excited, "Isn't it almost there?" ”
