Chapter 45: Blood Reishi

After a while, I stopped and rested for a while, thinking about the time of the previous delay, and then continued on the road, I have to say, the more I go up to the heights, the air around is more fresh, I took a look around, only to see the white clouds, actually wrapped around the feet, looking down the mountain, has been vaguely unable to see clearly, I smiled excitedly, it seems that I have worked hard to get some results!

At this moment, I inadvertently saw that on the other side of the cliff, there was a cliff, not that there was anything unusual about the cliff, but at the edge of the cliff, there were two figures shaking, I couldn't help but stop, and walked closer to the edge, and saw everything on the other side.

It was an old man and a young man, looking at the faces were very similar, but like father and son, the two of them were busy tying ropes, I frowned, the cliff is extremely steep, and the bottom is even deeper, is it possible for the father and son to go down to the bottom of the cliff?

Immediately, I followed the rope they cast, looked down, took a closer look, and suddenly understood in my heart that there was a blood-red herb growing three feet below the cliff, and I touched it again, and I exclaimed in shock: "It turned out to be a rare blood Ganoderma lucidum, no wonder this father and son want to venture down to the cliff!" ”

I couldn't help it, I decided to stop and see if they took off the blood lingzhi, I saw that the old man tried the tenacity of the rope, and then said something to the young man, the young man immediately shook his head, although it was not far away, but I still couldn't hear the conversation between them.

Soon, the young man took the lead to the edge of the cliff and nodded to the old man, who slowly tied the rope to the young man as if wiping a handful of tears.

The young man clung to the rope, then carefully suspended and jumped down, his feet immediately kicked on a raised stone, and then, slowly loosening the rope, he jumped down again, seemingly a very close distance, but the young man walked with great difficulty, and the old man above stared at his son intently, and did not relax for a moment.

Just when he was getting closer and closer to the Blood Lingzhi, the young man's feet suddenly hung in the air, and the rope in his hand was also swaying back and forth in mid-air, seeing this, the old man above opened his mouth and shouted: "Be careful!" ”

I heard the sound this time, my heart was warm for no reason, and the young man under the cliff did not say a word, volleyed a big swing, and finally hung a stone, because there was no foot below, the young man slowly kicked the stone and moved down, I saw that my palms were sweating, this kid, what a man!

Finally, the young man moved to the Blood Lingzhi step by step, and then raised his head and shouted to it, looking at the old man's beautiful smile, presumably telling the old man that he would be able to take off the Blood Lingzhi immediately.

This rare blood Ganoderma lucidum, if you pick it up and sell it in a pharmacy, but it is a lot of wealth, but it is not easy to get it, you are at the top of ten thousand zhang, you may fall down and break your bones if you don't pay attention to it, legend has it that this kind of work, if it is not a father and son, it is not a brother can not get it, if it is between brothers, it is very likely that in this case there is a secret greed, the idea of swallowing alone, the people above only need an axe to go down, you can put the people below to death, of course the father and son will not, because the ancients once said, tiger poison does not eat children!

But the young man stretched out his hand to pick it, but he couldn't reach it, his fingers were only separated by a small amount from the blood lingzhi, that is, such a distance, as if he was close to the end of the world, the young man was enough for a long time, but he couldn't get his wish.

After a while, he seemed to be tired, lying on the stone wall to rest for a while, I was thinking about how to take off the blood lingzhi, I saw the young man kick his toes, and his whole body suddenly swayed high, and then quickly crossed the position where the blood lingzhi was, but he reached out this time, and he didn't reach it.

After repeated defeats, the young man did not lose heart, on the contrary, he kept swinging, and then reached out to pick it, presumably because he was afraid of scratching the blood lingzhi, and chose to touch it carefully, so he swayed again and again and could not do it.

"Be careful!"

Coldly, I suddenly heard the old man above shouting again, and immediately raised my head to look, I don't know what he was shouting, maybe he just told my son to pay attention to safety.

Sure enough, the young man didn't say a word, and continued to swing around in the position of the blood lingzhi, followed by the old man above, shouting louder and louder: "Stop!" The rope is about to breakβ€”"

The young man hurriedly raised his head, then looked down at the blood lingzhi again, paused, and swayed again, and this time, the young man took off the blood lingzhi, at this moment, the old man quickly tied another rope, jumped off the cliff, and jumped quickly to the position where his son was, the young man was still surprised, I hurriedly looked at the rope above him, and my heart was shocked for no reason, that, the rope was really going to break!

There was a silent break, and the young man's whole body suddenly hung in the air, and at this moment, his father suddenly reached out and grabbed one of his hands, and the other hand tightly grabbed the rope.

"Hold on to me!"

The old man shouted, and then his feet were on the rock, and I rubbed my hands, and rows of fine sweat broke out on my forehead inexplicably, this, this is too dangerous!

The young man first took the blood lingzhi into his arms, then hugged the old man's waist tightly with both hands, kicked his feet, and pulled the rope extremely quickly, suddenly! The rope they had grasped slammed downward, and the old man and the young man almost fell, and I slammed my fist in a hurry, for if only I could save them, it seemed that the rope could not bear the weight of the two of them......

The two of them stabilized again, but for a while they made a difficulty, it was impossible to climb up, because the rope could not bear the weight of the two of them, but it was even more impossible to go down, and there was an abyss below, and my heart also followed up and down, like a cat scratching.

At this moment, the old man stretched out his hand and pointed to it, and said something to his son, and then, the young man shook his head incessantly, and like the old man, he stretched out his hand to point to the top and said a few words, and at the same time, the young man reached out and touched it in his arms, but the old man reached out and held it down.

Desperate waiting, is what the two of them are doing now, I'm afraid it's the only thing they can do, I hurriedly looked back at the stone steps, and muttered in my heart, if I go down and go to them, I'm afraid it's too late, this road has been walked for two days, and after two days, the rope may be broken, and I, too, will lose this important opportunity to go up the mountain to ask for immortal medicine.

While I was undecided, I saw the old man stroke his beard, touch his son's hair, and then ...... waved my sleeves and wiped a handful of tears, and I felt "groan" in my heart, should the old man be ...... Is it to ......

Really! I guessed correctly, at the moment when the young man reached out to grab the old man, the old man suddenly let go of the rope and jumped into the abyss, only to hear the young man cry hysterically: "Father!!" ”

At this moment, my tears flowed down without fighting, I can imagine what the old man said to his son before leaving, he first said that he was old, and he would not live for a few years, but his son was different, he was young, and there were still decades to go in the future, choose one of the two, the old man decided to let his son survive, and seek death by himself, and only in this way could his son live and get a fortune......

With a simple comparison and a simple choice, the old man ended his life in exchange for his son's chance to survive.

The young man cried bitterly, but still according to the old man's instructions, climbed to the top of the cliff with difficulty, on the edge of the cliff, the young man knelt down, towards the endless abyss, and kowtowed three times, seeing this scene, I felt a sour taste in my heart, maybe this is the interpretation of the world's giving and gaining, when the gain and loss can not be balanced, in the end can only choose to gain more than lose, this is the choice that cannot be changed, but also the most appropriate choice, although this choice is a little cruel, but ......

For the young man, what he lost was his father, but he fulfilled his father's hope, his father hoped that his son could live and continue his life, of course, if it was replaced by another ending, and the two died together, then such an ending must not be what the young father's father wanted to see.

Life is sometimes fragile, and sometimes it is amazingly powerful, of course, the premise is to recognize the various things involved in gains and losses, what is lost, what is not necessarily lost, and what is gained may not be gained.

Wiping away the tears on the corners of my eyes, I silently turned my head, sighed deeply, and continued on the road, and then I found that the time of the day, unknowingly, passed quietly, I was anxious, looking at the evening scene under the sunset, my feet couldn't help but speed up the pace, I secretly scolded myself, what am I doing!

Seeing that the top of Buzhou Mountain is far away, but I am still delaying time on the road, as soon as today passes, there are still four days, I dare not imagine, there are still four days, can I find the immortals, and ask for the elixir?

Traveling day and night was the only way I could shorten the distance, the soles of my shoes were gradually worn out, and there were a lot of blood blisters under my feet, which made me grin all the way, but when the blood blisters broke, I became numb and didn't feel much pain.

In the early morning of the fourth day, I looked up at the top of Buzhou Mountain, and suddenly! In that misty place, I saw a huge white palace, suddenly excited speechless, tears are even more out of my eyes, but these tears, is tears of joy, finally let me see the top of the mountain, as long as I work harder, I will be able to climb to the top of the mountain in the rest of the time, for the old mother to ask for the elixir, for no reason, the spirit of the first to rush up, is more than the blood of the chicken more energetic.

Hehe smiled, but just as I was about to speed up my pace again, there was a sudden thunderous buzzing sound in my ears.
