Early on Saturday morning, Wang Qiang dragged his family to the mountains.

"There are yew trees on our mountain, but they are precious. Ma Jianjun bid five yuan to buy a pound of bark! We have to make money before others know about it. ”

Wu Fanzhu was puzzled and excited: "Can the bark be sold for five yuan a catty?" And such a good thing? You didn't lie to me, did you? ”

"What are you lying to? Someone in Luoxia Village has already gotten the money. I saw it with my own eyes. Wang Qiang's eyes scanned in the forest inch by inch. I saw this tree when I was a kid, and it should be in this direction. ”

Wang Guichuan also said: "There is." I remember it too. ”

Wu Fanzhu saw that her daughter was lagging behind, so she pinched her arm with her hand: "Didn't listen to your brother?" What are you lazy to steal? Hurry up and find it! ”

Xiujuan worked for several days, ate little, usually relied on the morning to feed Mei Tou to eat a full meal, today even breakfast did not have time to go to the field to eat, only at home to drink some noodle soup came out, already hungry feet and have to get up to climb the mountain.

Fortunately, her brother's physical strength was insufficient, so Wu Fanzhu had to stop and wait for her son.

The family walked all morning, and finally found a thick yew tree on the side of the mountain road.

Wang Qiang was overjoyed, and when he lifted the axe, he cut it down.

Ling Mei's head suddenly stabbed, and Jin Yuan Bao spoke: "Someone is cutting down a yew tree." ”

To Mei's surprise. Fortunately, she was reading in her own room and immediately entered the space to check.

Zooming in on the map of the mountains, she saw Wang Qiang's family of three frantically scraping the bark of the yew tree!

Seeing that a hundred-year-old tree is about to be destroyed by them!

May was furious. She found the snake nest she had summoned last time, and gave the order: "Drive them away!" After a pause, "Don't hurt that girl." ”

Xiujuan was the first to discover the snake shadow. There was a sound of snorting in the grass, and as soon as she concentrated, she saw a large snake the size of a basin swimming towards them with a large group of snakes.

She screamed, "Snakes, so many snakes." ”

They are all old people in the mountains, Wang Guichuan had already prepared, took Bao Xionghuang and was about to spill it, when suddenly his legs were so weak that he almost fell to the ground.

"Let's go, let's go!" He grabbed his son and pointed to the grass, "We've stepped on the snake hole!" Run! ”

When did Guichuan's mother and son see this battle, they were so frightened that they rolled down the mountain in embarrassment.

"Son. What can I do? Wu Fanzhu patted her chest, her clothes were torn, her hair was scattered, and her body was covered with cuts and bruises.

Wang Qiang was not much better: "Damn." The duck to the beak flew. ”

"Why don't you find more people to go up the mountain together?" Wang Guichuan was also reluctant to pay for it. "A pound of bark is five yuan, and twenty pounds can earn a hundred yuan. That big tree has at least thirty or fifty pounds of bark. ”

Money is moving.

Wang Qiang hesitated: "But there are so many snakes—I think there are still poisonous snakes." ”

Wang Guichuan thought for a while and stared at Xiujuan, "Xiujuan will go up the mountain to explore." ”

Xiujuan's soul is not possessed, she is already holding on, and when she heard her father's words, she rolled her eyes in fright and fainted directly to the ground.

Wu Fanzhu was furious and kicked her waist: "What to pretend!" Play dead again and I'll send you to feed the snake! ”

"What for?" Wang Guichuan grabbed his wife. "Don't look at what this place is!"

Wu Fanzhu looked left and right, it turned out that they had already run to the entrance of the village, and not far away was Dr. Zhu's courtyard.

Wang Guichuan pinched his daughter's middle school, but he didn't see her wake up, and he was a little frightened.

Wu Fanzhu said disgustedly: "Don't worry." It's definitely fine. It's just that I ate too little in the morning and was hungry. Just go back and pour some rice soup. ”

Wang Guichuan had no choice but to help Xiujuan go home.

I didn't want to get home, so Hongcun came to the door.

Hong Cun watched them throw Xiujuan on the chair at random and asked, "What's wrong with Xiujuan?" ”

Wu Fanzhu hurriedly laughed: "The girl is timid, and she was scared by a snake on the mountain." ”

Hong Cun looked at the yellow-faced and thin-skinned girl, and couldn't bear it. But he knew the temperament of the Wang family, and if he said a few more words for Xiujuan, he was afraid that they would turn around and abuse the girl.

"What are you doing up the mountain?" Hong Cun said directly, "I heard that you went up the mountain with an axe?" ”

Wang Guichuan and his son glanced at each other: "I just want to chop some firewood or something, catch a hare and make a tooth sacrifice." ”

Hong Cun sighed, and said without being salty or light: "I can remind you." Xianyun Mountain is blessed by the mountain god. A few years ago, the disaster was so serious, and we all survived with the output of this mountain. There's something on the mountain that you can't touch. Beware of ruining your own good fortune. ”

Wang Guichuan's cheeks trembled, thinking of the strange snakes, and he couldn't help nodding: "Hongcun is right. That's right. ”

Hong Cun left with his hands down.

He had already heard the wind and someone outside was starting to buy yew bark.

Ling Mei came to the village committee and mentioned that Wang Guichuan's family went up the mountain with an axe, and Bacheng went to cut down yew trees. However, although the country is now closing the mountain, it is protecting wild animals, and it does not list yew as a protected plant. However, Secretary Sun, who was sent by Secretary Zhang to deliver the rice and fish breeding manual, specially reminded him that he should continue to pay attention to the protection of yew. I can't help it, I can only scare them.

Unexpectedly, he didn't take a few steps, and Officer Yang stopped beside him on a bicycle: "Village Chief, it's not good." Go down the hill and have a look. ”

Hong Cun was surprised and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"A lot of people, from the town and the next village, are coming to our Xianyun Mountain. Big bags and small bags, I don't know what they're going to do! ”

Hong Cun stumbled: "Oops! Quick, you entangle all the strong men in the village, we can't let them go up the mountain and cut down trees! ”

When the men in the fields heard the announcement, they put down their work and hurried to the foot of the mountain. The two sides formed a confrontation.

Li Qingjiang was still the captain, and he said with a smile: "Hongcun." Xianyun Mountain is not from your Yunlai Village. Why can't we go up? ”

Hong Cun smiled kindly: "Comrade Li, the weather on the mountain has been changeable recently, Comrade Li has brought so many people here, and he is not afraid of encountering danger again?" ”

Li Qingjiang's face turned red: "We will go down the mountain as soon as possible." ”

Hong Cun frowned, feeling that something was wrong. Last time, these people returned in fright, why did they not fear death come back?

"Whether you go up to the mountain to survey the terrain or look for yews, it's no problem." Hong Cun said directly, "But we can't harm the precious resources on our mountain. ”

Li Qingjiang couldn't help but be surprised: Hongcun actually knew that Yew was valuable?

"We have gods on the mountain." The old man of the village walked slowly. "Yew was planted by immortals. You can't touch it, you can't touch it. ”

The corners of Li Qingjiang's mouth tugged slightly: "Old lady, we are now a new society, and we are all in the 80s." Don't talk about ghosts and gods. ”

"Demons and gods are in the heart." The old man pointed to his heart, "There are gods three feet above your head." ”

How could Li Qingjiang give up? For five yuan a pound of bark, find a yew tree and make at least 150 yuan. 150 yuan, how many fish fry does his family have to sell? If he can find one more yew forest, he will be developed. 10,000 households are just around the corner!

He saw that Xiao Yueshan was also in the group that blocked him from going up the mountain, and his heart moved.

"Let's tell you the truth." Li Qingjiang sighed lightly. "We are indeed here for the yew trees. Because yew has medicinal properties, it can cure diseases. So now someone buys yew bark. One catty, five yuan! He stretched out his palm, "Five yuan a catty." Folks! ”

The more Xiao Yueshan listened, the tighter his brows wrinkled. There was already an uproar around me. The ears were filled with the sound of exciting and exciting discussions.

"Really? Is yew so valuable? ”

"I've heard a little bit about the fact that there are people in town who collect bark. I didn't expect it to be true. Over the mountain, do we have yew on the mountain? ”

People's hearts fluctuate.

Wang Qiang was also in the crowd and immediately proposed: "Instead of letting others take advantage of our village, let's find out the tree and sell it ourselves." ”

"That's right. What Guichuan said makes sense. ”

Yue Shan clenched his fists and objected loudly: "No." ”
