After all, this is not the era of ancient times when demons were dancing around. People here do not allow anyone to mess around.
Of course, these small formations were not a problem for Chen Yu. Just when he was about to enter directly, a little girl carrying a medicine basket came over from one side. She was going up the mountain to collect medicine.
Chen Yu had forgotten that this place had a pleasant atmosphere and not many people, so there were quite a lot of rare natural and earthly treasures on the mountain. Many ancient Chinese medicines were mined from this place.
Although this mountain is not as famous as Changbai Mountain, the quality of the medicine is really not bad at all.
"Are you going up the mountain?" The girl saw Chen Yu and couldn't help but look at Chen Yu more.
This small town has inconvenient transportation and is located in a remote location. You may not be able to find it even if you look for it on a map or with a magnifying glass, so there are usually not many tourists.
However, one look at Chen Yu's clothes showed that he was an outsider, so the girl looked at him a few more times.
"Yes, are you collecting medicine?" Chen Yu glanced at the girl and found that her eyes were very smart, which meant that she had spiritual roots and could be regarded as a good seedling if she practiced cultivation.
"Yes, my family runs a pharmacy." The girl smiled and said: "There is nothing interesting on this mountain, and there are many poisonous insects and beasts. If you have nothing to do, it is best not to go up."
"That's it, it's okay." Chen Yu smiled and said, "I usually like to explore. I've been to places like this a lot, so don't worry."
"Okay, but it's easy to get lost on the mountain. If you don't come here often, you will definitely go in circles. If you want to go to the top of the mountain, come with me. I know the way to go." The girl said.
Indeed, there are quite a lot of large and small formations on this mountain, and not everyone can get in. Although this girl is an ordinary person, she can tell at a glance that she has grown up on this mountain since she was a child, so it is normal for her to know the way.
of.
"Okay." Chen Yu thought for a while and nodded. Anyway, he came here to explore the way. If he can't avoid conflicts with the people from the Xuanji Sect, it would be better to try to minimize the conflict. It would be better to explore the way first before talking.
So he went up the mountain with the girl. On the way, he saw the girl picking some Chinese medicine from time to time and putting them into the medicine basket behind her. The bamboo basket behind her was almost as tall as a person, and it was a little difficult for her to carry it on her back.
"Let me help you get it." Chen Yu was embarrassed to be empty-handed. After all, the mountain road was difficult to walk. It was indeed quite tiring for such a little girl to carry such a big bamboo basket.
"No, this thing looks heavy, but in fact it's not heavy at all. I've been carrying it up the mountain to collect medicine since I was a child, so I'm used to it," the girl said with a smile.
"Are you still studying?" Chen Yu asked.
"I'm a sophomore in college. I'm not going back to my hometown during the holidays, so I helped my grandpa go up the mountain to collect some medicine. He's old and has inconvenient legs and feet." The girl said, "Are you a foreigner?"
"Yes, from out of town." Chen Yu said.
"Let me tell you, your clothes are different from those in our place." The girl smiled and said, "What are you doing here? Our place is not a tourist attraction, and there are no places of interest."
"A group of us are traveling by car with no purpose." Chen Yu said: "It was purely an accident that we came here. You people here are not xenophobic, right?"
"It's not exclusive, but it will be very enthusiastic. Don't worry." The girl said and leaned down again, picked a medicine from the ground and put it behind her back.
"Does your family own a pharmacy?" Chen Yu asked.
"Yes, medical skills passed down from our ancestors." The girl said, "Many people in the town go to my house for medical treatment. My grandfather is a well-known local doctor."
"That's pretty awesome. So you also majored in Chinese medicine, right?" Chen Yu asked.
"Yes, after graduation, I will most likely come back here to take over my grandfather's job, otherwise there will be no place to look after people here when they are sick," the girl said.
"quite.
The two of them were walking and chatting. The girl's legs were very nimble and she soon reached the mountainside. It was obvious that she had been running on mountain roads since she was a child. Even in this rugged place, she was very nimble.
And she also had quick eyesight and quick hands, and soon the big bamboo basket behind her was already half a basket full of medicine.
"You are quite powerful. Some Chinese medicines are difficult to identify. How did you recognize them?" Chen Yu couldn't help but become interested in her.
"This is simple. I have been collecting medicines with my grandfather since I was a child, and my eyesight is very accurate, so I can recognize the same medicines just by looking at them," the girl said with a smile.
A layer of fine beads of sweat had already formed on her forehead. Chen Yu said, "Take a rest. I think you are tired too."
"Okay." The girl looked forward, then untied the medicine basket from behind, and sat down. She took out the water bottle and handed it to Chen Yu, but Chen Yu shook his head to indicate that he didn't need it.
"You have good physical strength. You used to climb mountains a lot, right?" the girl asked.
"I don't climb much, but I have good physical strength." Chen Yu smiled and said, "Why do you ask?"
"Because I see you have been climbing for so long without panting or even sweating. This is not something ordinary people can do. I remember the last time I brought my boyfriend here, he was from out of town and he climbed
After a short walk, he was so tired that he was out of breath. Oh, he is also a physical education student." The girl said.
"Haha, mountain climbing is not what sports students are good at, and most people can't climb the mountains here." Chen Yu said with a smile.
There are restrictions on the mountain. Most people really can't climb up there. Although you don't accidentally enter these restrictions, the aura they give off is enough to make ordinary people choke.
"That's true. My boyfriend said that our mountains are evil. In his hometown, he can climb to the top of very high mountains in one breath, but here at my house, he is too tired to climb even after not climbing much."
The girl smiled and asked Chen Yu: "By the way, I have known you for such a long time, but I still don't know your name."
"Chen Yu, what about you?" Chen Yu asked.
"Zhou Shan." The girl replied. She drank a few water to regain her strength, and then said: "Shall we continue? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I can continue." Chen Yu stood up and smiled.
"You have great physical strength. On our mountain, people from out of town will be very tired when they climb up it." Zhou Shan smiled and said as she carried the bamboo basket on her back.
"Do you know what the reason is?" Chen Yu's heart moved. There are restrictions on the mountain. Ordinary people will be affected by the restrictions when they come, so they will feel very tired.
But their locals are not affected by the ban, there must be a reason for this.
"I heard that there are gods living in the mountains here." Zhou Shan looked around and then whispered: "It is said that the gods here protect the people here, so when outsiders come here, they can use their physical strength to
