Next, we bypassed the rift, and began to go down the river again, down are several rapids, about the bottom of the river there are boulders or whirlpools, the river water to here, suddenly turned up snow-white splashes, the whole river is snow waves, bamboo rafts on the top of the swaying, but with the superb technology of the old river, always stable, but there is some taste of rapids adventure.

The fat man finally took off his shoes, and the smell of stinky feet suddenly spread, he soaked his feet in the water and stepped on the flying snow waves, I couldn't help but joke: "I said fat man, how many people eat the water of the Yangtze River, can you accumulate some virtue and take back your feet?" ”

The fat man sat on the bamboo raft, rubbing his feet, and said: "Don't look at what the fat man does, Yin Virtue has already become a negative number, and he still accumulates a fart." I quickly kicked him, signaling him not to run the train with his mouth full, the fat man was almost kicked into the river by me, and scolded me for murdering my brother and being ungrateful.

At this juncture, this rapids has passed, and the canyon has opened up again, at this time, Lao Hu immediately said: "Brother Jiang, I'm tired after holding on for so long, the smoke is almost wet, let's rest, let the raft float, just a few of us take a look at the scenery." ”

Lao Jiang probably forgot the previous unpleasantness, took the cigarette from his ear with a simple smile, Lao Hu hurriedly lit it with a lighter, and the two immediately chatted with good brothers for more than ten years, I have to say, Lao Hu, although he has known him for a short time, but he is sleek and alert, he really seems to have a seven-trick heart, according to the fat man, Lao Hu has been doing business in the United States in recent years, and has made a lot of money, such a ruthless character, if I face him in business, I will definitely be eaten without even bones.

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the old gourd, so as he said, sit down and look at the scenery, Xiaohua answered the phone, listened to the content, it seemed to be telling his subordinates about business, this way, the most he did was to answer the phone, since he was so busy, why did he have to go with me this trip?

Does my life or death really have any effect on him?

The fat man soaked enough feet, and refused to let go of the Yangtze River, eager to swim in the Yangtze River, I poured cold water on him, and said, "You also want to be a minion to the water ghost?" When the fat man heard this, he scolded me and grabbed me by the neck, saying that I was becoming more and more unlovable, and he knew that he was ruining his good mood.

I rolled my eyes, slapped his hand away, ignored him, and went to listen to the conversation between Lao Hu and Lao Jiang.

"Brother Jiang, what specialties do we have in Wuxia?"

"Specialty, that's a lot, don't they all say that Changbai Mountain produces ginseng? We also have it on Wushan, although the number is not much, but it can be dug out, it is a good product for thousands of years, as well as gastrodia, codonopsis, snow dates, cloud tea, it is not clear to say, there are countless rare animals on the mountain, what golden snub-nosed monkey, giant salamander, pangolin, white-lipped deer, civet, there are many. ”

"Really? Now there are many people who are crazy about poaching, so many rare animals and plants, does the state have relevant protection policies? Lao Hu seemed to show a picture of loving Wuxia, Lao Jiang was very happy, almost knowing everything, and saying everything.

"Of course there is, but the phenomenon of poaching in Wuxia is relatively small, mainly because the Wuxia Mountain Range stretches, the mountain roads are not passable, and the poachers are also people, so it is difficult to get in, even if they go in, there are goddesses in Wushan, and they can't get any benefits."

Lao Hu smiled: "Is there really a goddess? ”

Lao Jiang also laughed and said: "It has been passed down from generation to generation, but I haven't seen it yet, but we have really few poachers here, and there are often strange things, there have been many poachers, and finally rushed out of the mountains in a crazy way, full of nonsense, as if they were scared crazy, but there are also people who collect medicine and go in, saying that the scenery in the mountains is very beautiful and there is no danger." No one can say for sure, but people are doing it, and the sky is watching, so let's do it with our conscience. ”

Lao Hu smiled, suddenly hissed, pointed in the direction we came, squinted to look, changed the conversation, and said, "What kind of mountain is that?" Yamagata is really weird, like a peach. ”

Lao Jiang looked at it and said: "Oh, that, it's not a famous place, it's not as good as the Goddess Peak, our locals call it Xiantao Mountain, the mountain is not high, but it is relatively large, and it is very difficult to cross the mountain." Oh, by the way, there is a minority village in the depths of the mountain, alas, the people there live a very poor life, and they are illiterate, the mountain road is not passable, buy a salt, and it takes a day and a night to go back and forth, but I heard that a few years ago, a college student was sent, and the whole village set up a flowing water banquet to celebrate, and there were people who went into the mountains to collect medicine, and they ate for two days in vain. ”

Lao Hu immediately showed a look of surprise and said, "There are still ethnic minority villages? Great, we just want to shoot some of the survival status of the ancient village, Lao Jiang, can you take us in to have a look? ”

I immediately heard that something was wrong, Lao Hu clearly wanted to enter Xiantao Mountain, could it be that there was something strange about that mountain? I couldn't help but look over, and suddenly found that something was wrong, that Xiantao Mountain is actually a vein of Wuxia, the terrain is back, hidden behind Wuxia, only half of the peach face is exposed, but at this moment I looked carefully, but found that the location of the peach is the direction where the crack is located!

Don't......

I suddenly understood, Lao Hu looked at the mountains and rivers and caves, and estimated that he had seen the doorway in the crack just now.

Thinking of this, I made up my mind, and when I saw that Lao Jiang didn't speak, I hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, pretending to be surprised, and said: "Now the ancient village is getting smaller and smaller, if it is really like what you said, we must pay attention to it, and we must not let the national culture suffer losses." ”

Lao Jiang probably didn't understand, and asked with an ignorant face: "Why do you pay attention?" ”

I choked for a moment and casually said, "For example, tell the government to let the government implement compulsory education for the people in the village, or give living allowances." Lao Jiang nodded hurriedly and said, "It should be, it should be." When I was sixteen years old, I went in with the people in the county once, and the people there had a hard time, the doll was still bare-bottomed, had no shoes to wear, ran all over the mountains, the soles of my feet were full of wounds and calluses, and there was no electric light until now. Doesn't it mean that knowledge changes fate? If you can really educate in education, you don't have to nest in the mountains in the future, this is a good thing to accumulate virtue, Cheng, I will take you in. ”

I didn't expect Lao Jiang to be so simple, I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that there was some fire on my face, and my heart was weak for a while, and I didn't dare to look at that simple face again, I quickly looked away, pretended to look at the scenery, and unexpectedly met Xie Xiaojiu's eyes, his expressionless face suddenly laughed, and compared a lip shape, it seemed: "You will do compulsory education?" ”

Damn, telling such a devoid lie, I'm already weak enough, can I stop sprinkling salt on my wounds.

I was too lazy to see Xie Xiaojiu, I took care of myself and talked to the fat man, and soon, Lao Jiang rowed a raft to the shore and began to take us to Peach Mountain to climb.

In front of Peach Mountain, is a mountain mausoleum, we are standing at the foot of the mountain at the moment, if you want to go to Peach Mountain, you must first turn over this mountain, and that ancient village, located on the mountainside of Peach Mountain, Lao Jiang said, we must be fast, it is now twelve o'clock, we have to strive to arrive at the ancient village at about five o'clock, otherwise five or six o'clock, when the sun sets, the mountain will not be easy to go.

This mountain road is very difficult to walk, to be exact, there is no road at all, the characteristics of Wushan is that there are many mountains and rocks, the water vapor is heavy, we walk in the mountains again, the bluestone under the feet is covered with moss, between the stone cracks are all kinds of unknown low grass cover, even if it is already noon, the mountains are still full of clouds and smoke, the trees and mountains and rocks are covered with a layer of water vapor, the trees seem to have been washed, and there is no trace of dust to see.

If you are not in a hurry, if it is not for the impure purpose of entering the mountain this time, this place is indeed worthy of the word fairyland on earth.

All the way is Lao Jiang leading the way, at the beginning you can see the woodcutter stepping out of the mountain road, go to the back, there is no road at all, our footprints and the footprints of the beasts in the forest coincide together, from time to time you can see a small flowing spring, or in the vines Pangeng, the ancient trees in the mountains to find the figure of rare animals, they are very fearful, often only leave a vague shadow.

Although the scenery of this road is like a fairyland, but the high-intensity march still makes me feel unbearable, this time we have a lot of weight, and it is all mountain roads, you have to climb with your hands and feet at every turn, and the clothes on your body are also moistened, and sweat is intertwined.

The last of our physical strength is Lao Hu and Xiaohua, Xiaohua bears me about the same weight, but except for a slight panting, there is no other performance, on the other hand, I and the fat man, the two of them are panting, out of breath, as if they will be tired at any time. I'm even more miserable, both legs are trembling, people who have not walked in the depths of Wushan, can't experience this feeling, even if you can climb to the top of Mount Tai, can go up to the top of Huangshan, you will definitely be impressed in Wushan.

These are two completely different mountains, Wuyue has been set foot by countless human beings, and has built a flat ladder and plank road, while in the depths of Wushan, it seems that no one has ever stepped on it for eternity, all the roads have to be stepped on by yourself, you can never guess what you will step on next, maybe it is to cross the ancient trees in front of you, maybe it is a boulder, or it is nowhere to climb, up to several meters of mountain walls.

Lao Jiang is used to walking on mountain roads, whether there is a weight on his body, so he walks the easiest, Lao Hu and Xiaohua follow him, the fat man is third, I pad back, although my tired legs tremble, but I really don't want to be a drag oil bottle, so I gritted my teeth and endured, and finally I don't know how long I walked, the fat man surrendered first, went to a stone covered with moss, waved his hand and gasped: "No, no, damn it, if it goes on like this, fat, fat man, I, it must be ...... The first to climb the mountain and die of exhaustion touching the gold school, the school ......"

With the fat man at the bottom, I couldn't hold it, and I sat on the stone with my buttocks, and I heard him talk nonsense, so I kicked him directly, and said, "Tired, tired You deserve it, don't say a word." ”

Lao Jiang was also sweating, and seeing that we really couldn't walk, he looked at the sky worriedly and said, "Take a break, we still have to hurry." "Now is indeed not the time to shout tired, none of us spoke anymore, sat in place and rested quickly, only sat for less than ten minutes, and then gritted our teeth and got up.

When it was close to half past five, the sun set, and the forest instantly darkened, and Lao Jiang was anxious and said, "Hurry up, it's almost there." "I took a look, and it was gloomy everywhere, because of the ancient trees in the mountains, even if the sun had not completely set, the sight in the mountains and forests was as dark as seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and there were no neon signs, so it was even darker.

I looked into the distance, my vision was blocked by the branches of the ancient trees, and I didn't see any populated scenes in the dark, so I remembered that Lao Jiang said that there was no electricity in the village, and it was estimated that even if the village was close, it would not be visible at the moment.

At this moment suddenly the bark of a wild beast sounded in the woods, some like a dog, some like a wolf, very strange, I had never heard it, and when I heard the sound, sometimes far and sometimes near, I could not discern the direction.

Xiaohua's face changed, and he pulled out a stick from behind his waist, I have seen this stick, it can stretch and shrink, in Siguniang Mountain, Sichuan, he once relied on this stick, like Monkey King, wandering between the cliffs.

Xiaohua pulled out the stick and twisted it with both hands, and the stick suddenly doubled in length.

Lao Hu hissed, listened attentively, and after a while, his eyes moved, and he said with a solemn expression: "It's jackals, there are quite a lot of them." Lao Jiang is also listening to the movement, he lives on the edge of Wuxia, naturally understands better than us, he listened, his face changed greatly, and said: "It's a jackal, and it's coming towards us, you listen, the sound is far and near, they are surrounding us!" ”

I listened closely, and sure enough, the voice came from the front, from the back, and then to the left.

Damn, these days, not only wolves have become sperm, but even jackals can use tactics, no wonder the ancestors said that jackals and jackals should be relatives.
