Yun Xue sat on the ground for a night like this, but fortunately, the roe deer skin mattress was carried by her, and she still had some dry food and other things on her body, but she was not hungry. As soon as it was dawn, she opened her eyes and continued to compete with the ginseng.

This ginseng is indeed not small, and the body exposed at this moment is already the length of a palm, and it seems that there is a section underneath. The ginseng has a longer beard, so it would be nice to be able to get it out today. Yun Xue nibbled on a mouthful of dry food, then picked up the skewer of the deer bone and continued to stir with the soil around the ginseng.

After hovering all night and unable to find their way down, several wolves on the mountain finally left unwillingly.

Rhubarb led Yun Zhen and them, all the way to the direction where Yun Xue was running. There were a little bits of blood on the road, which were left by the wolf that Yun Xue shot and wounded, but Yun Zhen didn't know, and they thought that Yun Xue was injured, so they were in a hurry. "Let's go, the eldest sister may be seriously injured." Yun Zhen said urgently.

They walked for about two hours before they came to the top of the cliff where Yun Xue had reached, and looking at the bottomless cliff in front of them, Yun Zhen and Tianfu's hearts all sank to the bottom.

"Big sister." Two children shouted in grief.

Even the rhubarb let out a mournful scream, and the tiger roared to shake the heavens and the earth, and all the animals in the entire mountain forest panicked and ran away.

Yun Xue was on the platform, and naturally heard their voices. She stood up happily, raised her head and shouted, "Yun Zhen, Tianfu, I'm here." ”

Yun Zhen and Tianfu were in mourning, but they suddenly heard the voice of the eldest sister. Yun Zhen hurriedly leaned over to the outside of the cliff to watch, only to find that the eldest sister was on a platform below, beckoning to them. Yun Zhen was overjoyed, "Eldest sister, eldest sister." ”

Tianfu naturally saw Yun Xue as well, and at this time, Tianfu hugged Rhubarb's neck and shouted happily, "Rhubarb, look, the eldest sister is fine, great, the eldest sister is fine." ”

Rhubarb shook its head and let out a low roar from its mouth, and at this time, its face also carried a sense of joy.

"Tianfu, let's get more vines to go down, so that the eldest sister can come up." Since Yun Zhen saw the eldest sister, he had a bottom in his heart, so he naturally had to find a way to save the eldest sister. So the two men went to find some vines, and then they put them together, tied one end to the tree, and the other went down the other.

"Eldest sister, you grabbed the vine and came up." Yun Zhen saw that the length of the vine was almost the same, so he shouted.

Yun Xue shook her head, "Yun Zhen, you come down, there is ginseng down here, hurry up and come down to help." ”

Yun Zhen and Tianfu were stunned when they heard this, and then they became happy. It turned out that the eldest sister had such an adventure, fell under the cliff, but met ginseng. Yun Zhen hurriedly grabbed the vine and descended to the platform little by little, and Tianfu followed suit.

"Look, there's a lot of ginseng here." Yun Xue pointed to the green leaves and red fruit plants behind her and said happily.

Yun Zhen and Tianfu were stunned by the scene in front of them all at once, others tried their best, it would be good to be able to see one or two ginseng trees, but they saw one. Yun Zhen couldn't help but sigh with emotion about the eldest sister's good luck, even the previous Lingzhi was discovered by the eldest sister, which really made people not know what to say.

By the time the two boys saw the ginseng that Yunxue was digging, the two children didn't know what to say. This ginseng, which is obviously the thickness of a child's arm and has a body length of five or six inches, is probably at least six or seven taels, right? They had never heard of anyone in a nearby village who had encountered such a large ginseng.

"Eldest sister, there are so many ginsengs, when are you going?" Yun Zhen felt his throat a little tight, he coughed, and then asked.

Yun Xue looked up at her younger brother, "Are you stupid?" Not to mention that there are rules for putting mountains, take the big and keep the small, and you can't cut it off. Even if there is no such rule, these 20 or so ginseng plants, a few of us will not eat or sleep, and it will be good to be able to take them out in ten days. Here, ten days? Damn it. You can find two or three more trees of similar size, and dig them out. We can't delay here for too long, Yunni doesn't know how to worry at home. ”

When Yun Xue said this, she thought for a while, cut off a piece of clothing with a knife, and then found a thin branch and lit it with a fire fold. Then with the blackened end, he wrote some words on the placket. It was nothing more than telling Yunni that they were safe, and they found ginseng in the mountains and went back two days late. After writing, Yun Xue found another rope and tied the placket of her clothes to the rope. "Then, go and hang it on Rhubarb's neck, and let Rhubarb go back quickly."

Yes, rhubarb has become a messenger again.

Yun Zhen took the cloth, climbed on it, tied the rope around Rhubarb's neck, and patted Rhubarb's head. "Rhubarb, I'll leave this matter to you, I must let Yunni see this cloth when I go home, understand?"

Rhubarb's yellow-green eyes swept Yun Zhen for a moment, then turned and left. Yun Zhen rubbed his nose, "Hey, are you disgusting me?" ”

Rhubarb naturally wouldn't answer Yun Zhen, it took elegant steps and left very quickly.

Yun Zhen scratched his head and couldn't help muttering, "Tiger Spirit." Then he followed the vines to the bottom of the cliff.

Yun Zhen listened to the eldest sister's guidance, and Tianfu and Tianfu found a ginseng seedling that looked quite big, and then operated in the same order and began to raise ginseng.

The one in Yun Xue's hand didn't all rise until noon. Good fellow, this ginseng tree is nearly two feet long, with its reeds and beards.

Under normal circumstances, the branches and leaves on the ginseng are all emanating from the reeds. Every autumn, when the branches and leaves wither, a reed will grow underneath, and the next year, the small buds inside the reed will sprout and burrow out of the ground again. And where the branches and leaves originally grow, there will be a small pit, which the locals call the bowl. Therefore, if you want to see the year of ginseng, you basically need to see how many bowls there are below the head of the reed, at the neck of the ginseng. It's just that the one in Yun Xue's hand, the bowls under it are clearly squeezed together, and I can't see how many there are at all. I just know that this year must not be low, but I don't know how many years there are.

However, this ginseng is as white as jade, and looks like a human form, with a head, neck, body, and two legs. With a slender and elegant neck and soft stretched legs, she is like a beauty. The ginseng beard was covered with small pimples like pearls, and it looked like a gorgeous dress.

Tianfu was a little stunned, "Sister, this is really human-like." ”

"yes, maybe it's all fine. Let's take it home and see if we can become a beautiful big girl at night, and then we can be Tianfu's daughter-in-law. Yun Xue said as she found a lot of moss and wrapped the ginseng. Moss can conserve water and will not dry up the ginseng.

Tianfu listened to Yun Xue's words and was a little angry, "Eldest sister, you will talk nonsense." ”

Yun Xue and Yun Zhen both laughed.

Yun Xue found another ginseng tree, dug it out, and then her mouth was not idle, "Didn't there be such a story before?" A young man went into the mountains to put ginseng, and suddenly saved a little doll or a big girl. Then in order to repay him, they pointed him to find a big ginseng. The young man bought the ginseng and got a lot of money. In some stories, isn't there a ginseng girl who transformed, went to repay the favor, and married that young man? ”

These are all heard by the old people, and in the Changbai Mountain area, there are all kinds of such stories, and there are various versions. Some bullies are involved, but in the end, it is justice that trivishes evil, and good people live a happy and happy life.

The sisters and brothers chatted and told stories, and their hands were not idle, and they continued to dig up those ginseng trees. At dusk, the one in Tianfu's hand was dug up, and it was not small, but it was a little smaller than the one Yunxue had made. The three of them ate some dry food, and thanks to Yun Zhen, they brought some dry food and water when they went out, otherwise they would have to starve.

This day happens to be the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the Midyear Festival. But they didn't expect that this festival would be spent on the mountain. "Yun Ting, you should be able to go to the grave today, right?" Yun Xue muttered.

"Almost, last summer, it was me and my eldest brother who made it together, and they all followed. We're not at home this year, they should be able to do it, and the eldest sister can rest assured. Yun Zhen comforted.

For the younger siblings in the family, Yun Xue is quite relieved, they are all sensible children, and in many things, they are much better than other people's children. "Okay, then we'll spend the night here tonight, and we'll go home tomorrow when we've almost picked up the remaining two. This thing was given to us by God, and we can't be too greedy. It's better to stay more, maybe someone who is destined can meet again. ”

Yun Zhen and Tianfu were a little reluctant when they heard the eldest sister's decision, but after thinking about it for a while, they didn't say anything. It's already rare to be able to get these ginseng trees, and if you're too greedy, God won't be able to look at it. But for others to see this piece of ginseng again, Yun Zhen felt that it was impossible.

Ginseng is a very evil thing, even if a few of them turn around and leave today, they can't go far, and when they wait to turn back, I'm afraid they won't be able to find these ginseng anymore. Many people who went into the mountains to release the mountains, some saw the ginseng, and they wanted to swallow it alone. They will make a mark near the ginseng they see and wait to come back. Unfortunately, when they turned back to look for it, the mark was still obvious, and the ginseng would disappear without a trace. This is a matter of fate, and no one can do anything about it.
