Chapter 140: Annotation
"The Cangwu Mountains stretch, and the hunting meeting chose a relatively gentle mountain forest as a flute. Hunting in the mountains, young talents who are good at riding and archery gather together to compete with the breed and quantity of hunted hunt to see who has the most superb skills. Perhaps the original intention was to let the younger generation not forget the hard work of their ancestors, but now it has become an annual carnival of powerful families.
In order to reduce the burden, Chen Huan and the cronies of the Cheng Wangfu ignored the various panicked animals they encountered on the road, and in order to reduce the burden, they even abandoned all the bows and arrows, and went into battle lightly to ensure the fastest movement speed.
According to the books, the blood reishi mostly grows in the dark and damp crevices of the caves, and the appearance is no different from the ordinary reishi, but it will appear bleeding red in winter, and the whole plant is as if soaked in blood.
Following the instructions on the rough map, they soon arrived at the first marked location. It is a long and narrow gap formed by the crack of the mountain, and the tenacious vines and plants cling to it, and in winter, only the bare cane tentacles crisscross the mountain, and there is a feeling of dense fear when you look at it.
The cronies and guards bore the brunt of the attack, tearing open the dry vines that were wrapped around the cracks and walking straight inside. But he quickly retreated,
The summer solstice probe glanced at it, directly vetoed this place, and drew a cross in the position relative to the rough map,
I found three marked locations in a row, and each time I returned empty-handed. Blood Lingzhi didn't seem to be a precious herb that could be found so easily, and everyone had already formed such a consensus before setting off. But as time passed little by little, Chen Huan couldn't hold it back, took the rough map and spread it out, and only a few crosses were made in more than 20 punctuation points until now, and proposed,
Xia Zhi said, and then added,
At this point, the two teams separated, and Xia Zhi and Chen Huan marched south together. In addition to the necessary communication, the two did not have a word of gossip, and felt a lot stranger. Xia Solstice didn't force it, his mind was full of wanting to find the blood lingzhi.
On the mountain road, from time to time, there would be other people participating in the hunting meeting, and everyone tacitly distanced themselves to avoid the situation of grabbing the same prey, so there was no obstruction along the way.
But there is an unfavorable situation. The weather in the mountains was fickle, and after a few days of clearing, the northwest wind blew, bringing a large dark cloud of black pressure, and it was inevitable that a heavy rain would be inevitable. A penetrating horn suddenly sounded in the mountains, and the rhythm of three long and one short was a reminder to all hunters that today's hunting meeting was temporarily suspended. In addition to fierce beasts, snakes and insects, bad weather will also exacerbate potential safety hazards. The hunt was just a side show, and no one would gamble their lives for the success of the hunt, so as soon as the horn sounded, the hunters responded one after another, turned their horses, and returned to the camping site according to the instructions on the side of the mountain road, and fought again on the next day.
Chen Huan didn't seem to hear the reminder of the horn at all, and still marched to the next marked location with a firm attitude. Every time he crossed the map, Chen Huan's mood was obviously irritable. This not only declared that their efforts were in vain, but also represented that the lives of his Chen family were hanging in the balance. When the punctuation on the map is full of crosses, does it also mean that the Chen family has been sentenced to death?
Dark clouds gathered and the sky darkened a lot. The wind is blowing, the woods are blowing, and there is the momentum of the mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building. Seeing that they were getting farther and farther away from the camping site, if it rained heavily, it would be lethal in this cold mountain, and reason told Xia Solstice that he should not take this risk. After hesitating for a long time, I finally spoke,
Chen Huan completely ignored Xia Zhi's suggestion, and only turned back after Xia Zhi's repeated shouts,
Xia Zhi raised his whip and rode his horse to Chen Huan to block his way,
Chen Huan stopped his horse and looked at the summer solstice very seriously.
Xia Solstice at least thinks so in his heart.
Chen Huan is very firm, he already has this awareness. Bypassing the horses of the summer solstice, Chen Huan whipped a whip, and the horses let go of their hooves and galloped away.
The first huge raindrop fell right on Xia Zhi's cheeks, cold and biting, and Xia Zhi couldn't help but shiver. Then the second drop and the third drop, the bean-sized raindrops rushed to fall, densely forming a rain curtain to hide Chen Huan's back. Xia Zhi sighed and whipped after him.
The downpour quickly caused water to accumulate on the ground, the trail became muddy, and visibility was reduced to a distance of several meters. Chen Huan still stubbornly groped forward, moving little by little to the next marked location.
Although Xia Zhi wore waterproof and simple rain gear, he still couldn't resist the erosion of heavy rain and soon got soaked. The dripping clothes stuck to the body, sticky and clammy and uncomfortable. Chen Huan stopped abruptly in front, Xia Zhi originally thought that his conscience had discovered it, but when he followed, he found that he had come to a fork in the road, and he was hesitating which way to choose. On the left is the direction to the high altitude, and on the right is the direction to the valley in the middle of the mountain, with about the same number of punctuation marks on both sides.
Xia Zhi stepped forward and said.
Chen Huan put away the map, turned around and chose the fork on the left. Although he was dissatisfied with her, he had to admit that Xia Zhi's judgment would be more credible in terms of finding the blood Lingzhi. Moreover, the rain was too heavy, and if you reached the cave in front of you, even if you were reluctant, you should take shelter first, and then set off again after tidying up. “
