Chapter 231: Changbai Mountain Heavenly Pool

After Li Jingxi inquired with passers-by, he knew that it was very easy to identify when he went to Tianchi: he saw a Baitou Mountain, which was the main peak of Changbai Mountain and the highest peak in Northeast China. At dusk on April 27, the two arrived at the foot of Changbai Mountain, and they could see in the distance that the mountain peaks were steep and steep, beautiful and upright, and they were about to look for a place to stay, when they suddenly heard a whooshing sound and shot a cold arrow from the dense forest in front of them!

Hearing the sound, without waiting for Zhu Ziping to make a move, Li Jingxi, who was sitting in front of the horse, had already caught the cold arrow, and someone in the dense forest shouted: "Who dares to trespass into Changbai Villa?" Li Jingxi replied in a rough voice: "We didn't know that Guizhuang was here, and we strayed into this road, and we wanted to spend the night overnight, but since we are not welcome, we will leave." The dense forest snorted coldly: "Strangers are not welcome in Changbai Villa, the road has been closed here, you have to spend the night, there is a Songhua Village ten miles to the south, but I advise you to go back quickly!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Ziping turned his horse's head, followed a fork in the road on the right, and galloped south for several miles, and then stopped. Li Jingxi asked, "Big brother, aren't we going to Songhua Village?" "What is Changbai Mountain Villa for, occupying the mountain as the king? Now there are only two possibilities to go to that village, many people in the rivers and lakes surpass us along the way, and they can't all be invited by Changbai Villa, so like us, they will go to that Songhua Village. Now that we're going, it's hard to say whether we'll be able to stay or not. ”

Li Jingxi took over the conversation: "The second possibility, Changbai Villa will set a trap in the village to deal with those who try to get their hands on the thousand-year-old ginseng, and if they can't control it, they will secretly poison them." So no matter what the case is, it's not peaceful to go to Songhua Village, big brother, isn't that the case? ”

"Jing'er is right, let's go up the mountain from here and see if we can find a cave for the night." Zhu Ziping turned over and jumped off, helped Li Jingxi off the horse, then took off the burden and put the horse into the forest. There is no path in the forest to go up, but it is difficult for the two of them, Zhu Ziping hugged Li Jingxi, tapped the thorns in the forest with his toes, and quickly rose towards the mountain.

Changbai Mountain is known as the fairy mountain, and the Xianbei, Goguryeo, Mongolian, Khitan and other ethnic minorities living in the northeast all admire this largest sacred mountain, leaving many beautiful myths. After the Khitan and Jurchen Dingding Central Plains, after establishing the Liao Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty respectively, they officially called this highest mountain in the Northeast as Changbai Mountain. Among them, the Jurchen people also regard it as their birthplace and often come here to worship and pray for blessings.

Changbai Mountain is the same name as the five mountains, represented by Tianchi, which integrates flowing springs and waterfalls, forest canyons, clouds, fog and ice and snow, and is the first mountain in Kanto with beautiful and magnificent scenery, known as "the thousand-year-old snow is the pine of the year, and the first peak in the world". The two of them performed their skills between the red pine and maple birch, and finally found a cave halfway up the mountain.

The depth of the cave is only one zhang, when they went up the mountain just now, both of them found that there were Siberian tigers and other wild beasts, and they did not dare to be careless, and although it was midsummer at this time, there was still a trace of coolness in the cave; At the same time, the mountain is steep, it is difficult for ordinary people to climb here, Zhu Ziping folded the dry pine branches, and built a fire at the entrance of the cave.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Li Jingxi took out the baked cake from the baggage, tore off a piece and stuffed it into Zhu Ziping's mouth. Li Jingxi took out the water bag again, took a sip of it herself, put the water in her mouth, blushed, and asked Zhu Ziping to open her mouth, but she fed it mouth-to-mouth.

Zhu Ziping suddenly asked: "Jing'er, we were injured last year in the cave of the prayer platform, did you feed me like this?" Li Jingxi said softly: "No, you were unconscious at that time, with a high fever, and we didn't bring water, but fortunately it rained, so I fed you with leaves." ”

"When you're hungry, you go outside the cave and pick some peaches, and we've been in the cave for ten days." Zhu Ziping thought about the situation at that time, "When I woke up, I found myself lying on your lap, and I felt that you treated me so well, like my eldest mother...... I didn't have a mother when I was a child, it was the eldest mother who raised me and Wang Hou together, the mountain village was poor, and the eldest mother often gave me delicious things to eat. ”

Li Jingxi snorted: "You told me, the first time I heard you talk about the eldest mother, it was still in the Qinguan Inn in Xi'an, I want to help you wash your clothes, you said that the clothes were sewn by the eldest mother, the eldest mother is over sixty years old, and her eyes are not good, and it took more than ten days to sew them out...... So, after you knew the efficacy of thousand-year-old ginseng, you thought about getting it. ”

"Beat my little dad and teach me that the eldest husband must have clear grievances, and if there is kindness, he must repay his kindness, and if he has hatred, he must also take revenge. If I have the opportunity tomorrow, I want to get the thousand-year-old ginseng and bring it back to the eldest aunt and uncle...... Jing'er, it's raining outside, fortunately we found this cave, tonight we take turns to sleep, you sleep first. ”

"I don't want to sleep right now, let's talk more. Big brother, Changbai Mountain is also called Baitou Mountain, there is the meaning of 'long-term guarding to Baitou', this cave is so good, we might as well live in this cave for ten days, and then catch a little tiger to raise, okay? Li Jingxi's childlike heart suddenly rose, "Otherwise, let's catch a deer and come in to play." ”

Zhu Ziping smirked a few times: "Didn't you say that you want to give birth to a lot of children, and then raise tigers and deer, you can take care of them?" Li Jingxi hugged him and said coquettishly: "Don't you say that I look like a lady, if you don't listen to the mother, the mother will be angry." "Jing'er, don't make trouble......"

Wake up the next day, the two stand outside the cave, the drizzle is sprinkled, the coolness is straight to the heart, and the strange stones around are towering, the green grass under the feet is hung with water droplets, it looks charming and colorful, looking into the distance, the pine forest is dense, the wind blows, the sound of pine waves is heard, faintly mixed with the roar of the waterfall. The two stepped on the bonfire, identified the direction, and swept towards the direction of Mt. Paektu.

Tianchi is oval-shaped, ten miles long from north to south, six miles wide from east to west, surrounded by sixteen mountain peaks, the water of the pond is green and clear, when the weather is fine, the blue sky, white clouds, green peaks are reflected in the blue waves, colorful and gorgeous. But here is perennial clouds and mist, the heavenly pond looms, like a fairyland on earth, the mountains are empty and rainy, adding a bit of mysterious color.

At this time, the road leading to the mountain is full of bright posts and secret sentinels, and they are ready to fight, and a vacant land in the west of Tianchi is full of people, holding steel knives one by one. Seeing that it was approaching noon, it was raining in the sky again, and a voice said: "Boss, why do you have to choose three o'clock in the afternoon, you can dig it out now." The one who asked was the fourth of the "Changbai Four Heroes".

"Fourth, don't be ashamed if you don't understand, ginseng is a warm attribute, warm yang disperses cold, yang qi is strong again at three o'clock in the afternoon, and excavation will not damage the medicinal properties of ginseng." After listening to the boss's reprimand, the fourth child didn't think he was angry, and muttered: "That fool ran fast that day, otherwise Lao Tzu really tore him, they weren't in Songhua Village last night, even if they knew each other, they didn't dare to come over, they just let out a stinky fart." ”

The boss looked disdainful: "As long as you like to make trouble, which of our Changbai Villas dares to provoke?" That fool is obviously addicted, you still take it seriously, and it is not ashamed to fight with him, if you let the owner know, I think you will inevitably be scolded. The fourth said with a smile: "Boss, if you don't say it, the second and third children won't say it, so how will the owner know." ”

"What you said is simple, take the thousand-year-old ginseng as an example, it was originally a very strict incident, but the news leaked, and the owner of the village recalled us from Jianzhou Wei." The boss waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, don't talk so much nonsense, there is still a quarter of an hour until three o'clock in the afternoon, and the owner of the village should also come." As he was talking, more than a dozen people walked up, and everyone on the mountain shouted in unison: "Meet the owner!" Walking in front, a man in his fifties with a meaty face answered: "Everyone has worked hard, wait for the mountain to go down the mountain and drink a few bowls of wine." ”

In the praise of everyone, the owner of the village put his hands behind his back and leisurely looked at the scenery of Tianchi.

Zhu Ziping and Li Jingxi lay in ambush in the pine forest from afar, looking at the situation in front of them condescendingly, Li Jingxi took out another piece of human skin mask from the burden and put it on for him, Zhu Ziping inspected the terrain, thinking about how to start for a while, and where to retreat after grabbing the thousand-year-old ginseng. After watching it for a while, Zhu Ziping whispered his thoughts: "Jing'er, there are many of them, and I don't want to hurt them, you will stay here for a while, no matter what happens, don't go out, after I grab it, you come out again, let's go down the mountain from the west side......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Ziping's heart suddenly jumped, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a person lying next to him, who was the old Taoist he had met twice. Lao Dao grinned: "Boy, you go on, I'll listen." Only then did Li Jingxi realize that there was one more person beside him, and asked in a low voice, "Old immortal?" When did you come? ”

Lao Dao snorted coldly: "Sample, think I won't recognize you if I wear a mask?" Female doll, you are not as shrewd as this kid, and you don't even know what is going on if you sell it...... Boy, what you just said is right, after grabbing it, you will go down from the west side, will you grab it or will I grab it? Zhu Ziping was surprised in his heart: when did Lao Dao come over, he didn't even know, until he got closer, he realized that the atmosphere was wrong, it seems that he doesn't know if he is a miracle doctor, but he is definitely a martial arts master!

Seeing that Zhu Ziping didn't speak for a long time, Lao Dao thought that he was scared, so he snorted again: "For the sake of you inviting me to drink mutton soup, I will do it first, but I will have to get half of it then." Li Jingxi hurriedly said: "Old immortal, if you get your hands on it and escape down the mountain, where will we find you?" ”

Lao Dao's beard was originally spread one by one, and after listening to Li Jingxi's words, he pouted even higher: "Sample, when have I ever cheated on this way?" If you're not at ease, you can go first. Zhu Ziping thought to himself, it seems that the old way is not the first time to come, but it seems that he often comes to rob, familiar with the way, it is better to let him strike first, and said: "Old fairy, believe in you, you come first, I will stop at the intersection, once I miss, I will also block the people below from coming up for reinforcements." ”

After the two discussed, they saw that the hour had come, and they started digging at the edge of the forest, and after a while, they heard a shout: "The owner of the village, dig it out, dig it out!" It seems that there are two catties, at least a thousand years! Before the words fell, Lao Dao had already rushed out, only to see a figure grab the wild ginseng in the blink of an eye, but suddenly roared angrily and threw the wild ginseng on the ground!
