Chapter 219: A Glimmer of Heaven
"On this stone, there seems to be an inscription that I have seen in Yu Han's study!" Lan called back.
Du Qunfang looked over, laughed, and said loudly: "Where are the words, are the patterns on the stones." If you are blind like me, don't take out the treasure. You should see if there are any fish!" - the sound of the waterfall falling into the water is loud, and you need to raise your voice.
"Such a high waterfall falls straight down, and there are fish, and it scares away!" Lan Hui said in a high voice.
Du Qunfang pulled up the corner of his shirt unnecessarily, sniffed, and said, "I've been hiding for many days, and my body is sour, why don't you wash it here." But I'm a little dizzy. β
Lan replied, "I'm a little bit too. β
Du Qunfang has now learned to be more cautious, and turned around and asked Yu Mengyu and Mu Mangzi if they were dizzy, and Yu Mengyu said that his head was a little dizzy.
Mu Mangzi shouted: "It's not dizzy, but the ears are a little uncomfortable." β
Du Qunfang heard him say that his head is not dizzy, and this is not a closed environment, it should not be caused by some poison, or the poor rest in the past few days, but he is relieved.
They don't know that later generations call such an environment "natural oxygen bar", and they are a bit drunk with oxygen reaction.
Dream Yu didn't dare to go to the pond below the waterfall to bathe, and one of the three tiger ben guarded on the shore and took turns to go into the water.
Then, under the protection of strict and unwatched, he went into the water and washed himself in a small puddle on the shore dozens of steps into the water.
Change your clothes.
Yu Mengyu changed into a clean black dress, and only then did he feel that his body was alive again.
Du Qunfang said: "The sun sets fast here, so it's better to wash and dry your clothes here, and rest here tonight." β
The dream said: "How can you sleep with the rumbling sound of water?"
It was not early, I collected my dirty clothes, and continued to walk along the stream on the right bank for less than two miles, and there was no road ahead, and I was ready to cross the river, but I saw that the water here was more turbulent than above, so I found a lawn, cut trees, bamboo, and grass, and set up a simple tent.
The ready-made food was exhausted, and there were mountains and rivers here, so Du Qunfang divided the work: Lan Hui was responsible for catching fish, crabs and other aquatic products in the river, Du Qunfang was responsible for hunting mountain delicacies, and Mu Mangzi was responsible for protecting Miao Mengyu and setting up the stove at the same time.
After arranging, Du and Lan brought hunting equipment, weapons to be precise, and went their separate ways. Just in case, they all act within a stone's throw nearby so that they can be answered at any time, which makes Du Qunfang's task the most difficult.
Mu Mangzi took out a small copper kettle with two ears from his bag, which was expected to be Mu Zisan's treasure, and the "cunning" Mu Zisan probably didn't think about whether he would send it back. This should be the one thing that Mu Mangzi has prepared the most.
Next, with the assistance of Mu Mengyu, Mu Mangzi moved a few stones, set up a stone stove, found dry firewood, lit a fire with the original method, and first burned a pot of clean water.
The sunshine time in Longshui Gorge is short, more than half an hour has passed, the sun has set, Du Qunfang returned empty-handed, Lan Hui caught a few small fish, a few small crabs and two mussels.
Lan Hui laughed at himself: "These little fish, it's not enough to stuff your teeth." β
"Don't worry, it's dark, just go down to the river. Mu Mangzi added a piece of wood to the stone stove, wiped the sweat from his face, and looked up. They had boiled a pot of boiling water and moved it to the side, adding wood so that the fire would not go out.
Du Qunfang said with a smile: "It seems that next time, Mu Mangzi should be asked to catch fish."
But not tonight. Just now, I heard a callous stick. "Cocoon sticks, a type of rock frog, a local delicacy.
"The best!" Mu Mangzi and Lan Hui said at the same time.
When night falls, Longshui Gorge becomes lively, with the sounds of water, wind, and various animals coming from the air, in the woods, and in the water, and mosquitoes and other flying insects are also active.
Lighting a small torch, Du Qunfang led the way, less than a mile, found a small ditch, they estimated that the water source came from a small dragon cave on the cliff with a small flow, and the water quality was extremely clear.
In the ditch, there are most stones and aquatic plants, and the clear water flows slowly between the stones and the grass.
For the first time, she found that this animal was very timid, but not flexible enough, and it was like meat on a knife in front of three strong tigers. Among them, it seems that Mu Mangzi is more familiar with the number of roads.
After a short time, they caught enough food and returned to the camp, Mu Mangzi and Du Qunfang, three times and five two, only fresh frog meat was left.
Dream Yu sat on the small grass outside the tent and gossiped with the temporary personal guard Lan Hui.
This is the first time that Lan Hui has been alone with Yu Mengyu.
He seems to be not only strong in martial arts, but also has a little knowledge of the capital and even some things in Jiangzhou, and thinks that he has heard from the head of the Hu'an Palace guard, Lan Hui has the experience of doing the underworld in Jiangzhou, and Lan Hui admitted to this beauty that in terms of the skills of surviving in such an environment, he and Du Qunfang are not as good as Mu Mangzi.
Lan Hui even began to wonder if Mu Mangzi had the same secret as himself, but he didn't say it.
The aroma of meat spreads with the evening breeze.
Two "chefs" have cooked the frog meat, one for roasting and the other for boiling.
After tasting the delicious taste of boiling with his own hands, Mu Mangzi remembered to thank the caterpillar and said, "If it weren't for the caterpillar, I would have almost forgotten to take the salt away." β
"If it weren't for the caterpillar, you wouldn't need salt!" Just now, over whether to boil or roast, the two sworn brothers had a little dispute, and Du Qunfang, who advocated barbecue, was displeased.
Through the evaluation of diners and the cooking competition, Mu Mangzi temporarily took the lead with "2 to 0". The reason is that Mu Mangzi adds a few condiments picked nearby to the boiled frog, among which the protagonist is called "wood ginger" (note: wood ginger, or wood pulp, also known as "mountain chicken pepper", a kind of wild mountain pepper, the locals like to use it to cook fish, etc., its taste is a bit weird, and there is a little numbness of the mouth, but the taste is very special).
Du Qunfang was not convinced.
Lan Hui smiled and said, "You have nothing to disagree with. Mu Mangzi must have won the true legend of Hu'anshan's two big mouths. β
ββThe second brother of Mu Zisan, the owner of Dongting Village, is a chef in Hu'an Palace, and is known as the "first mouth" of Hu'an Mountain, and Mu Zisan is known as the "second mouth", because of the relationship between Mu Mangzi and Du Qunfang, Lan Hui also quietly ate a lot of happiness in the room of Hu'an Palace.
After eating the first delicious meal in the lower Longshui Gorge, let the dream of the dream fall asleep in the simple tent.
The three tiger warriors were on the small lawn outside the tent, and the sky was made of grass as a bed.
Tonight, Lan Hui is in the first half of the night, Mu Mangzi is in the middle of the night, and Du Qunfang is in the second half of the night.
Fortunately, when people are in trouble, the heavens come to make beauty, and the next day, the sun still penetrates into Longshui Gorge.
There is no way to go on this bank but to cross the river.
Without waiting for Qunfang to give the order, Mu Mangzi took the initiative to carry the dream language across the stream. It seems that he already thinks that this is his own business, and he does not want his brothers to do it for him.
The four of them walked along the grass, sand, and stone roads along the river, and from time to time they needed to borrow stones from the river to step on.
These four people, just like the Tang Dynasty monks who learned from the scriptures in later generations, are still in the same order in the past few days: Du Qunfang takes the lead, but what he carries in his hand is not a stick, but a willow leaf sword;
After walking for a long time, the sky is getting narrower and narrower, the light is getting darker and darker, and looking at the sky, it is like a line, with strange trees and different grasses on both sides, which cannot be described all.
The scenery here is praised by the famous local Wujiang Yunyu Mr. "Picking Mulberries and Sewing in the Ground":
One
It is good to visit the ground: birds chirp and pine trees, spring water dingdong, and face the wind of the stream.
The light kiss is dark and quiet, a line of sky. Passing through the rocks, the cliffs and waterfalls are flying in the smoke and drizzle.
Second
The gorge is deep and interesting: thousands of cliffs, the mountains are hung with silver hairpins, and the sun shines brightly in the afternoon.
The ladder intercepted the road and volleyed down, smiling freely. Debauchery feelings, a gorge of scenery to open up.
Yu Mengyu looked up at the sky for a while, and said, "There really is only a glimmer of heaven." β
Later generations called this place "a line of heaven." β
After this, there is no way to go, turn back to the right bank. Needless to say, Mu Mangzi became a "white dragon horse" again.
The front was a little wider, and the dream said, "I'm tired, take a break!"
Mu Mangzi said, "Are you hungry?"
Lan smiled back: "Besides eating, do you know anything else?"
Du Qunfang sighed: "I don't blame him. We have become savages, and we can only live by fishing and catching birds, hungry for a meal, full of food, and full of food, always feeling that our bellies are empty and nagging. β
Lan replied: "I've survived the hardest days in the Ten Thousand Winds Forest Sea, what are you afraid of? The most important thing here is water, and there are a lot of wild things, just use all the tricks taught by the Orion Sect of Dongting Village." β
"If I continue like this, I'm afraid I'm going to grow long hairs like a wild man." β
Seeing that there was a big rock by the stream, just under the shade created by the towering cliff, about two or three zhang high, Du Qunfang said: "It's better to go up and stop the corpse and then leave!"
"The stone is high, where can I go up, and there are a few big stones below, and I am on the low boulder." β
Du Qunfang said: "How dare you rest assured!"
Yu Mengyu said: "You are condescending, are you afraid that I will not be strict? I can't hold on.
Du Qunfang pursed at Mu Mangzi, Mu Mangzi wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, Du Qunfang smiled: "After a while, I'll change you." β
Du and Lan flew up to the boulder, happy that the surface of the boulder was flat, unpacking their bags, flattening their bodies at will, enjoying the intoxicating air, and relaxing their tired body and mind.
Yu Mengyu also got on a relatively flat stone, put down his bags, sat for a while, and felt uncomfortable, and then lay flat on the stone face, looking up at the white clouds in the air floating by, his thoughts went to the clouds, and he didn't feel sleepy, and fell asleep in a trance.
The "unlucky" Mu Mangzi accepted the glorious task, first standing on another stone a few steps away from Yu Mengyu, observing the movements, and naturally taking a look at the sleeping beauty from time to time.
After a while, Mu Mangzi yawned and lay down, but he didn't dare to sleep.
The two of them didn't dare to really sleep, and when they opened their eyes, they saw an eagle hovering in the air, and they were sleeping again.
About half an hour, Du Qunfang could hear a very subtle and continuous "rustle" sound in the forest on this shore, raised his vigilance, carefully distinguished, and softly reminded Lan Hui: "Be careful!"
