Zhou Qiao and Yang Qian have heard of this kind of thing before, and what they have seen with their own eyes today is considered to be a long experience, and the seventh uncle is very calm, in the rural areas of the Northeast, there are actually many families who will worship the Baojia Immortals, mainly to avoid evil spirits and harm the family members are also to seek peace, and some people are family traditions to focus on this way and sign a contract relationship with animal spirits in order to achieve the purpose of common cultivation, which can be regarded as mutual benefit.

What they saw today was the method of the disciples who came out of the horse to ask the gods to go up, ask the other party to help with the upper body, give them offerings, and so on. It's just that being a disciple of this horse has to be voluntary, otherwise even if you invite it, it won't be able to play a role, so this Hu Santai will ask the youngest son of the Zhou family if he agrees to worship the gray fairy.

When the black-robed man surnamed Shen was about to leave, Uncle Seven stepped forward to talk to the other side.

"Mr. Shen is polite, I don't know if I can bother with a few words, I want to ask Mr. if he has ever met a middle-aged man about forty years old, with a short beard and dark skin."

The black-robed man stopped and looked at Uncle Seven, "You are a foreigner, are you here to look for someone?" ”

"Yes, we made a special trip from Beicheng to come over, a while ago a cousin of mine came here to look for ginseng, I don't want to go to no news, I don't know whether I live or die, the old man at home really can't let go and ask me to wait for a few people to come to look for him, I know that Mr. is a person with great ability, I don't know if I can bother Mr. to inquire with the immortal family on his body, have you seen this person, if Mr. knows something or has any clues, our family will definitely be grateful" Uncle Qi arched his hand, and by the way, he took out a wad of RMB from his bag and stuffed it into the other party's hand.

"I see, since you are so sincere, I will help you, but you need to promise me one thing, you can't reveal half of the matter here, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless."

The black-robed man weighed the money in his hand with a smile, and then said gloomily

"Of course, of course, I will never mention half a word to anyone" Uncle Qi said repeatedly, and Zhou Qiao, Yang Qian and others next to him also nodded

"Well, that's okay, I'll help you ask the immortal family," he said, turning his back to a few people, and his mouth began to chant again......

After a while, he said: "My grandmother Hu San said that she asked the juniors in the family, according to her, she once saw a man next to a hidden cave in the mountains, covered in rags and rags, with unkempt hair, and only looked at it from a distance, and could not see the age, I don't know if it is the person you are looking for."

The seventh uncle was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you Mr. for telling me, whether it is my cousin or not, I finally have some hope."

"Hehe, you're welcome, I still have to say goodbye in advance"

After speaking, the black-robed man turned around and left, leaving only the seventh uncle and a few people standing in place, thoughtful.

When the figure of the black-robed man disappeared, a few people came back to their senses

"Uncle Seven, what now?" Yang Qian asked in a low voice

Uncle Seven frowned, and muttered for a long time before saying, "No matter what, we have to go and see, this matter cannot be delayed, we will enter the mountain tomorrow."

Zhou Qiao said, "The mountains and forests are dense, and there are many poisonous insects and beasts, let's go and prepare things to enter the mountains first, and it is better to find a local to lead the way."

Uncle Seven glanced at Zhou Qiao appreciatively and said, "That's right, the mountains are sinister, if you encounter a beast again, it will be troublesome."

"In this way, Xiao Qian, you go to the nearby residents' houses to buy some dry food, water, and tools to deal with wild beasts that you need to enter the mountains.

Xiao Zhou bothered you to purchase some anti-insect and snake medicines, and I will go to find someone who can lead us into the mountains tomorrow, and the three of them will act separately.

Zhou Qiao came to a town near Longtangou and first went to buy realgar powder, mugwort, glutinous rice, rooster blood and sulfur, and then went to the pharmacy to buy a little herbs, and then bought three straw hats, ropes, fire folds, daggers and other items, these are all things used in the mountains conventionally, although there are a bit of a lot but not difficult to get, it took half a day to collect them all.

When Zhou Qiao returned to Longtangou, Yang Qian and Uncle Qi had not returned, he put his things in the residence and went out to look for Yang Gan to see if he had bought all his things, and just walked the road at the entrance of the village, Yang Gan's pig-like cry came: "Mom, my mother, help......"

Zhou Qiao followed the sound and ran over to take a look, only to see a fat earth dog chasing after Yang Gan's buttocks and barking with its tail wagging its tail, Yang Qian was so frightened that he hugged his head and ran away

"Wang, Wang, Wang........."

Zhou Qiao carefully looked at the earth dog that chased after him, and found that it had a dark yellow coat, a bulging forehead, a thick mane on its neck, long pointed ears, sharp teeth, and a pair of copper bell-like eyes flashing with cold light, and couldn't help frowning

Yang Qian ran to the front and gasped: "Brother Zhou, run, this animal is not a vegetarian who eats meat."

Zhou Qiao casually took a leaf from the tree next to him and put it to his lips, moistened his lips, and blew out a very strange and sharp sound, the vicious earth dog's ears were erected, and in an instant it was as if he heard an order, and he no longer barked and stood still, looking at Zhou Qiao with fear;

, obviously shocked by the whistle just now

"What's going on?" Yang Qian's eyes widened and he looked at the scene in front of him in surprise

"This is called dumb dog gong", my family's ancestral secret technique, used to drive away wild dogs," Zhou Qiao explained

Yang Gan was stunned when he heard this: "Your family's ancestral secret technique, Brother Zhou, you... Are you a corpse chaser? ”

Zhou Qiao didn't answer and acquiesced, Yang Qiangang was still embarrassed, and now he immediately put on a flattering smile and said: "Brother Zhou, it turns out that you are a corpse chaser, I am really clumsy, I didn't recognize you and thought you were a tomb robber."

Zhou Qiao patted his clothes, snorted coldly and asked him, "You said that you are a soldier who is afraid of dogs, who believes it, you usually don't use black dog blood."

Yang Qian secretly glanced at Zhou Qiao and rubbed his fingers awkwardly: "Brother Zhou, I usually buy black dog blood from others and never do it myself, don't tell me Uncle Seven, this is my secret"

The next day, the three of them got up early in the morning to eat and prepared to set off, and Uncle Seven ran all over the village yesterday to find a "mountain man" to take us into the mountain.

In the vast primeval forests of the Northeast, there is a mysterious profession called Shanshan......

Every year, after the rain in the valley and before the white dew, there will be a group of people silently shuttling between the deep mountains and old forests, they abide by the mysterious rules handed down from ancient times, go over the mountains and mountains, and look for the "king of herbs" - ginseng in the mountains!

In the thousand-year-old history of Fangshan, a set of mysterious and strange rules has been formed, including: industry terminology (lip dictionary), code of conduct, ethics, professional tools, industry taboos, etc......

The mountain release people are generally team into the mountain, and there is also a person who puts the mountain alone, which is generally called a single stick.

Uncle Seventh found this time is a single stick (mountain man) surnamed Lin, an old man, who looks to be in his eighties, full of weather, spirited, straight as a loose waist, tall and burly.

The old man Lin's name is Lin Fugui, who has been in Longtangou Village for decades and is a senior mountain herder, and most of the young people in the village are guided by him to practice the art of mountain release.

Yang Qian took four wooden sticks, one for each of them

Old man Lin walked in the front, Yang Gan and Zhou Qiao were in the middle, and Uncle Seven was behind;

After walking for more than an hour, several people came to the foot of a high mountain, which is one of the sixteen peaks of Changbai Mountain (Tianhuo Peak) looked up at the mountain, the clouds and mist were shrouded, and the top of the mountain could not be seen clearly at all, and occasionally birdsong could be heard, but there was no sign of human activity
