One morning, the weather is clear.

"Gao Yue, there are no fertilizers at home, I want to buy some fertilizers on the street." My dad woke me up.

"Today, if you have nothing to do, go and set up your horse and come back early to cook..." Dad told me.

He got up at around six o'clock and woke me up by the way, telling me to go and let the horse go today.

"Well, okay, dad..." I responded lazily, and then nestled in the bed in a sleepy state.

I was woken up when I was still sleeping. I was so sleepy that I couldn't help it. I closed my eyes and fell asleep soon. Later, before my dad left, he said whatever he said...

Dingling...

The alarm clock urged me over and over again at nine o'clock, and I couldn't get up until half past nine o'clock.

Put on my clothes, fold the quilt, and rub my confused eyes naturally with my left hand.

When I saw that my dad had already cooked the pig food and roasted four or five potatoes under the stove.

After pouring some hot water and washing it briefly, I picked up the potatoes baked by my dad into the small bamboo helle and shook them hard.

In just a few moments, the scorched skin of the potatoes was quickly removed. I took a little fermented tofu and dipped it in. It was so delicious.

I was enjoying the delicious feeling of eating potato dipping sauce when someone knocked on the door.

Dongdong...

"Who is it, it's the eighth morning of the Qing Dynasty..." I asked first.

I have to ask first? You can’t open the door randomly, what if you are a bad person?

"Ah? Are you wrong? It's already past ten o'clock, and it's still the eighth morning of the Qing Dynasty?" Zhou Yan wondered.

After I opened the door, Zhou Yan continued to say speechlessly: "Are you sleeping in a mess?"

I can't admit that I've been sleeping in. It's very affecting my image when I hear it.

I frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense. My dad had something to do today and went out. He woke me up when he got up..."

"Oh, okay!" Zhou Yan shrugged helplessly.

Zhou Yan continued, "Okay, I'll go back to have dinner first, I'll leave later, let's go up the mountain together."

"Okay, come and call me when you leave, just eat fried rice with egg..." I asked him to call me.

After saying that, he left and I didn't keep him, after all, my family's food was not good.

More than half an hour passed, the sun was already very poisonous. It was past eleven o'clock, and Zhou Yan also came to call me.

"Hey, Gao Yue, are you ready? Let's go now?" Zhou Yan shouted.

"Are you blind? I'm grinding an axe. Please help me pull the horse out first." I yelled at him.

"I..." Zhou Yan was choked by me. He still helped me pull the horse in the circle.

He helped me pull the horse out and tied it to the peach tree. He was watching me grinding an axe.

"You are not going to use your broken axe for the second uncle of the blacksmith. It's so ugly..." Zhou Yan despised...

Our back mountain is very vast. It is a huge group of mountains. It takes less than a mile to reach the foot of the mountain.

We walk on the ancient road. There are many ancient roads. No matter which one we follow, we can eventually reach the great wilderness above the mountains.

The ancient road is long, with lush vegetation and flowers blooming everywhere along the way. If we follow my father’s teachings, the mountains and fields are full of medicinal materials, most of which are good medicines and few poisons.

The hornets flying by from time to time are what Zhou Yan cares about the most. This guy is best at finding the hornet's nest.

What I am best at is finding medicinal materials, or finding good flowers, plants and trees.

I still remember one time, I dug a evergreen plant on the mountain and planted it in front of my house.

As a result, I was trampled to death by a horse. I still felt uncomfortable for a long time because of this...

"Oh! So thirsty, Gao Yue, come quickly, let's drink some water before leaving!" Zhou Yan was so thirsty.

Seeing him sweating profusely, I divided the melon I cooked, and I was so hot.

At this time, we had already arrived at the hillside, which should be seven or eight hundred meters away from the height of our home!

Huhu...

I panted, "Look, our hometown is really magnificent."

Sitting here, there are ancient villages in the vast green sea.

But they are all very scattered and scattered.

The winding dirt road of cars shuttles through the green sea, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

Our hometown is a not-so-large valley. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and to the east is a large gap. Walking down from the gap, there is another valley...

Nature is really a magical skill!

I sincerely exclaimed: "It's really "the magnificent place is my home"!"

Zhou Yan also said happily: "Haha, of course, if there is another river, it will be even more perfect, definitely like ink painting."

...

Soon, we arrived in the depths of the mountains and forests. Along the way, there were thick ancient trees everywhere, many wild fruits, mushrooms, etc.

In this deep mountain, there are more strange flowers and plants, such as peony, gentian grass, and grass black.

There are also rare medicinal materials such as Dinglou, Gastrodia elata, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. that you can occasionally see.

Where is the wild fruit? There are quite a lot of them.

For example, sweet potatoes, red vine fruits, chicken simplicity, etc.

His cow and my horse walked forward one after another, and we walked slowly behind us.

We pick some wild fruits from time to time to time to eat, and the cattle and horses walking in front of us also chew on the roadside grass from time to time.

It seems that they are human and know how to walk slowly and wait for the master behind them.

Walking in this towering forest with ancient trees, you will inevitably have some associations.

After all, where there are mountains and waters, there are homes.

Similarly, there must be legends in places with mountains and waters.

I once heard from my dad that when they were young, there were not only wolves, but also leopards and monkeys in the mountains behind us...

Anyway, I have never seen it since I was a child.

I have only seen pheasants, big eagles and so on...

The female pheasant is very simple, while the male pheasant is very beautiful. Its gorgeous feathers are so gorgeous. At the beginning, I thought the one that looks good was the hen and the one that is simple was the rooster!

They are different from us humans. Human women are beautiful and men are very simple, haha.

We sat down on the grass by the roadside in the forest. We had been walking for almost an hour and our legs were sore and weak.

"Or why don't we tell stories or legends, okay?" I looked at Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan was gnawing on the radish. When he heard me telling stories, he became interested.

He looked at me expectantly and said, "Ahem... Then, then you say...Ahem..."

"Oh, ahem, I almost choked me to death."

"Okay, then you eat slowly, I'll start talking." I asked him to eat slowly so that he wouldn't choke again.

"I wonder if your parents or family members have told you that my dad once told me that there are many legends in the river behind this big mountain range, and even the huge mountain range we are in has many legends..." I lay down and looked at the sky and spoke.

Looking back at the story my dad told me, I feel it is really mysterious.

I looked at Zhou Yan, and he looked at me while eating radish.

So, I continued, "My father said before that someone once mined and smelted gold and silver on the banks of the Daxuewan River. Later, because of the sudden war, they fled in panic. Before they fled, they blew up the entrance of the Tibetan Golden Cave."

"I only left a few riddles, and I still remember those riddles, "Three steps forward, the Shano River; three steps back, the China River, as long as someone can recognize it, gold will be pulled by a cart, and silver will be carried by a horse."

"Legends say they are from Sichuan. Later, they fled to Sichuan and died of old age soon. Their descendants came to search with drawings, but never found them again."

"Gold is pulled by a car, and silver is carried by a horse? If we go and find them, wouldn't it be very rich?" Zhou Yan was shocked.

Haha, who is not moved by such a huge amount of wealth?

But, it’s a pity that no one has been able to find it for so long, so how can we find it?

Once certain things are classified into cause and effect, then only those who have great luck can get that wealth.

"Haha, everything has cause and effect, so don't dream. Even if we get that kind of thing, I'm afraid it's a sin to bear a treasure." I poured cold water on him.

I quoted the scriptures and told him not to dream, but I started telling stories again.

"Let me tell you another story! It was also what my dad told me. There was a person who was wandering around before. When he walked to a place, he suddenly saw a jar of clear water. He picked it up and drank it all without saying a word. Although he was not thirsty, he was still very hungry."

"It just so happened that a kind-hearted man took him in. The family fryed meat for him to eat. At night, his stomach hurts very much, and he was embarrassed to wake up the owner. So he couldn't hold it in and pulled a few piles of shit on the wooden board upstairs. He had no choice but to leave in the middle of the night."

"He was lying on the bed and couldn't sleep. He got up and ran when the sky was dawn. The owner went upstairs and saw a few piles of gold. He quickly packed it up and ran out to chase him. The owner ran and shouted, "Gold, gold..."

"And this wanderer, guess what happened to him?" I looked at Zhou Yan.
