Chapter 80: The Winding Water Leads to the Secluded Place

Wait until dawn, the fog locks the mountain, and there is a white expanse everywhere.

The forest is moist, and the early birds have worms to eat, and they jump on the branches happily.

Wang Yongping climbed the tall trees and looked for directions, and there was a tallest mountain in the southeast direction.

If you want to escape the world, you have to find a place where no one goes.

What people can see is very close, but it is not easy to walk over, let alone this kind of deep mountains and old forests.

A drop of cold water dripped onto the top of An Ran's head, the trees here were too dense, and it felt like a primeval forest.

The little black man sniffed around and ran to the front to investigate.

"Ahh

Mei Shi was frightened, his hands clenched together, and he didn't dare to point.

Wan Guan bared his teeth and barked at the big snake hanging on the tree.

The feet of the timid people are almost softened into a puddle of water, and they do not listen to the call, and they are startled when they see any vines.

"Don't mess with it, get out of here."

The snake hung on a big tree ten meters away from them, and because the color was a little bright, everyone could see it at a glance.

The boys formed a column, holding thick sticks in their hands, and banged on the wild vines around them.

"It's the sound of water." The closer Wang Yongping approached, the louder the sound of the water became.

He used to hunt in the mountains, so he was much more relaxed in the woods, and his sense of direction was much stronger, leading everyone closer to the place where the sound of water came from.

An Ran pricked up his ears, there was really water, it was the sound of a dingdong spring.

Peeling away the miscellaneous trees, a small trickle flowed and flowed, the water was crystal clear, and the water was surrounded by thorny wild vines and green yellow essence leaves.

"Let's go along the water."

It's not easy to walk along the water, the water flows out of the cracks in the messy stones, and it's covered with green moss, and it slips if you step on it.

"Shhh Liu Chunlan looked at the back of her bleeding hand.

The dogs didn't dare to walk here, and the vines were densely intertwined, and from time to time something unexpected came out.

There is no road in the world, but when there are many people walking, there is a road.

There are so many of them, and they have stepped out of the same way left and right.

After overcoming obstacles for more than ten days, I am getting closer and closer to my destination and farther and farther away from the world.

As we walked, the road became wider, the water flowed, the bamboo forest rustled, and the water became wider.

Perhaps because of the shade of the bamboo forest, there are no weeds and vines around, and the water flow under the shade of the bamboo is very gentle, and there is very little sunlight.

"Mother, the water here is so cold."

The boys used wooden sticks to pick up the dried bamboo leaves that fell in the water, and the water was very cold, compared to the water flowing in front, the water in this place was like a river in winter, not freezing but bitterly cold.

"Brother Ye, this place gives people a creepy feeling, and I'm a little scared."

"Don't scare yourself in broad daylight. You see, there's no sunlight coming in. ”

A ray or two of light shined through the cracks in the bamboo leaves, hitting the stones in the water.

Little Blacks don't like cool water, so she runs on the shore and comes down when she has to go into the water.

"Uncle Wang, you see there's a turtle there."

Mei was scared along the way, and looked around very carefully.

Father Wang followed Mei's gaze, and it turned out to be a turtle carved in stone.

The turtle shattered a corner and swept away the bamboo leaves on it, with a groove on the turtle's back.

"It's a scumbag."

"How did this stuff end up here?"

This lump is very large, and it is impossible for this little water to wash here.

"There should be a tomb around here, it's okay, let's keep walking."

Father Wang comforted the people in the family, it is difficult for the living to be afraid of death.

"Let's take a break here, this place is empty."

The bamboo forest grows in clusters, and the gap in the middle is very clean, and there are no other weeds except bamboo leaves.

Without light, no other plants can grow around the bamboo.

"Are these bamboo shoots edible?"

There are not many bamboo shoots around the bamboo roots.

"Wrap your hands, there's a lot of itchy hairs out there."

Wang Yongye wrapped his hands and took a knife to raise a bamboo shoot, which was slender, with a black-brown shell and a dense brown hair.

"This bamboo shoot is too astringent."

The bamboo shoots are peeled open, and the bamboo shoots inside are small and bitter.

"Just blanch it."

Liu Chunlan washed the bamboo shoots and washed them in the pot, the water changed color, a faint tender green, and a bitter smell wafted out.

Several women of the Fang family looked at a pot of bamboo shoots and didn't dare to eat them, what if they died of eating, there were no doctors in this deep mountain and old forest.

"I'll eat first, I'm hungry." Lei Jian saw that everyone didn't dare to try first, so he took the initiative to ask for a piece.

When he was hungry, he ate all kinds of insects, and anyway, they were all in this mountain, and he had to find food to live.

"Little Jane, how is it, whether it is bitter or not, if it is bitter, it will be spit out quickly."

The boy shook his head, the taste of this bamboo shoot was okay, a little bitter but not astringent.

Seeing that Xiao Jane was fine, everyone dared to eat.

"Be careful to light the fire, don't burn it up."

Daddy Wang kicked away the dead branches and leaves around him to make a safer area.

"Dad, where are you going?" Wang Yongan watched the old man climb uphill with all his might.

The bamboo forest does not grow much, it all grows along the sides of the stream, and the bamboo forest is lined with very steep slopes with wild trees and weeds.

"I'll climb up and see what's in front of the current."

It's a pity that there is no borrowing point here, and you can't go up if you climb a small section.

An Ran looked at the rocks exposed on the slope, which looked like a cracked valley, with high slopes on both sides and gravel in the water.

If you look at the rocks, they are at least a few hundred meters high, and if the sun runs to the other side of the mountain, there is no light at all.

After a short rest, everyone continued along the current.

Wenbo was lying on Da Hei's body, his foot was twisted, and with the broken blisters, his whole foot was injured.

As I walked, the light of the sun moved away, and the place looked gloomy, and the bamboo forest disappeared in about half an hour.

At the end of the bamboo forest is a cave where water flows.

The entrance to the cave looked pitch black, and the outside was littered with large rocks with aquatic plants growing in the cracks of the stones.

They now have to decide whether to go in or not to go in.

"I'll get a torch."

They had only two paths to choose from, one was to enter the cave, and the other was to return to the place where the bamboo forest appeared and climb up from the other side of the mountain.

There is nothing strange in the cave, but fortunately there is a place to put your feet, it is damp and dark, and it is an underground river.

The temperature in the cave was very low, freezing people's shoulders, and the water seemed shallow but was actually very deep.

After turning around, I finally saw a bright light, and outside the cave was another world.

Lifting the vines hanging from the hole, the vision widened, and a faint fragrance came.

The white flowers are blooming in patches, the petals are delicate, the stamens are black, and the wind blows with thin branches swaying.

"These flowers look scary."

Several women felt the same way, and the place was full of such flowers, and they were wobbly like unclean things.

An Ran has never seen such flowers, these flowers are very special, the fragrance is elegant and good, and the sunny one is beaten by the afterglow, translucent and crystalline.

Father Wang looked up at this flower, where had he seen such a peculiar flower in most of his life.

"Don't pick it!" Liu Chunlan knocked off her son's hand, this flower is not normal at first glance.

Wen Ming retracted his hand and didn't dare to move again.

"You are not allowed to touch these flowers casually, they are horrible to look at."

The women told the children, afraid that they would touch them.

"Dad, listen, the sound of water is so loud, there must be a waterfall near here."

This is the sound of a waterfall, the sound of water rushing down from a high place against a rock.
