After passing through a long and narrow crack, we walked into the canyon. The jungle in the canyon is unfathomable and there are towering trees everywhere. Most of the big trees are tens of meters high. They are veritable giants among the trees. The ground of the big trees
The mountain is covered with vines, and there are no roads, making it difficult to walk. Fortunately, there is a river in the jungle, but the river is slightly narrow and looks a bit like a thin line of sky.
"This is an adventurous place. It's more enjoyable than traveling to Hainan Island. Why haven't I heard of a place like this before?"
Xiao Jun and Chen Ran were walking by the river. Chen Ran saw that some branches nearby were covered with wild fungus, so he broke off a piece of dead bark on the dry trunk with his hands, picked off the wild fungus on the trunk and put it away.
Into the dead tree bark, such wild fungus is a natural wild product. It is undoubtedly a good idea to make a fungus soup after eating the game later. Xiao Jun is not idle, so he also goes
Come forward to help.
Chen Ran was startled for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Haha, maybe it's because it hasn't been developed." As he said this, something moved in his heart. The mountains in his hometown are definitely not worse than those mountainous scenic spots. I don't know why so far.
It has not been developed yet, and I don’t know how much investment it will take to develop it.
If he didn't have much money, he wouldn't mind developing this place. After all, this was his hometown.
"Yes, it's not that simple to develop this place. There are too many involved and too much money needs to be invested. If not, a billionaire could be buried alive here. This is not a place of historical interest.
No developer is willing to develop it."
Although Xiao Jun chose to join the army, after all, his family background was here, and he saw the problem much further than Chen Ran. There were too many interests involved in developing such a place.
Chen Ran smiled bitterly. It seemed that his thinking was a bit simple. If it were so simple, I'm afraid a developer would have developed it long ago. But this idea can't be broken off so easily. Even if it can't be developed now, it won't be developed in the future.
This place needs to be developed.
This is not for any reason, even if it is a willful thing, or to satisfy a desire of one's own, I am afraid that everyone who comes out of the mountains has had such a desire. Perhaps this is why many wealthy businessmen come out from small places.
Maybe it’s because when you get rich, you go back to your hometown to invest.
"Let's go."
After picking almost all the dry bark, Chen Ran stood up holding the bark of the dead tree, greeted Xiao Jun, and the two of them continued walking forward. Along the way, they also picked some other game and ferns.
He also encountered a lot of wild mushrooms in vegetables, but Chen Ran only dared to pick the very common wild mushrooms, and did not dare to pick other ones. Mainly because he could only recognize this kind of common ones, and the others could not be picked.
I don’t recognize him anymore.
After walking along the river for about half a mile, we arrived at the spring.
Compared with the impression Chen Ran had when he was a child, this spring is much drier now, with almost only stones left, and the water is also full of green aquatic plants.
"Is this Wusong Mountain?" Standing on the big rock above the spring, Chen Ran looked at the mountain to the left of the spring and shook his head speechlessly. This mountain is in the middle of the mountain. There is a ridge with a long
There are just a few relatively large pine trees.
"Haha, the mountains here have no names. I think Xu Hui's grandfather called this mountain Wusong Mountain because it was at night and there was heavy fog on the mountain, so it was called Wusong Mountain." Xiao Jun
Laughed.
The Bamboo Forest Lake is obviously related to the bamboo forest.
Chen Ran couldn't help but think about it, but he didn't think much about it. The key now was to find the place where the bones of Grandpa Xiao Jun were buried. After finding it, he would have plenty of time to explore that mysterious place.
Jumping off the big rock, Chen Ran walked forward for a distance according to the route on the map. This was a side ridge. Walking along this side ridge, you would reach the end of the route on the upper half of the map.
The route forward is the one on the treasure map he got.
According to the route on the treasure map, he still had to walk diagonally to the left for some distance. Based on the situation on the first half of the map, he estimated that he would have to walk about five hundred meters further, which is one mile.
After walking for a mile, you will suddenly turn right, then turn around at an angle and walk back. The walk back is still about one mile. At the end, you have to climb a mountain and that's about the same place.
Of course, this is just his rough guess. The distance is definitely not accurate because he estimates the distance in a straight line. In such a big mountain, there is no straight line.
It can be seen that it is a long way from this spring to that place. Without the treasure map in his hand, if you want to find that place, you have to start from the spring and move the seats on the right side of the spring.
If you dig all over the mountain, you can imagine how big a project it is. It is almost like finding a needle in a haystack. I am afraid that Xiao Jun will have to stay in this mountain for at least a year.
Obviously, Xiao Jun is probably mentally prepared for this, having been looking for him for fifty or sixty years.
"Okay, let's go back."
Chen Ran did not go any further. This place was already at the end of the route in the first half of the map. Now he had a clue in his mind. What he had to do now was to lead Xiao Jun and the others there.
"Have you discovered anything?" Xiao Jun looked at Chen Ran's thoughtful look and thought that Chen Ran had discovered something, so he couldn't help but ask.
"What can I find?" Chen Ranxin said that he did, but he couldn't tell you directly.
Xiao Jun smiled bitterly and sighed.
After patting him on the shoulder, Chen Ran didn't say anything. The two returned to the spring, took the picked game and returned to Shihu.
Back in Shihu, not only did Zi Qilin come back, but Chen Ran's grandfather and uncle were also called back. Guo Hai was talking to them. When he saw them, Chen Ran walked over quickly.
"Big boy, you little bastard hasn't been back for two years. Well, you're in good spirits."
Not many people know the name of Chen Ran's grandfather. Anyway, the village calls him the old village chief, and outsiders call him Old Man Chen. Old Man Chen is in his sixties and is a bachelor, regardless of his age.
He is big, but his body is very strong. He is an old hunter in the village. This is not popular these days. A few decades ago, it was normal for some wild beasts in the mountains to run into the village, especially the group of wild beasts. In the village
There are hunters in almost every household. When wild beasts come down the mountain, people in a village must hunt the wild beasts and drive the wild beasts out of the village. Old man Chen has no heirs, but he has always been kind to Chen Ran, even better than Chen Ran's own grandfather.
Wanting to kiss, Chen Ran came over, and he looked Chen Ran up and down. Seeing that Chen Ran was in good spirits, he patted Chen Ran on the shoulder with satisfaction. Fortunately, Chen Ran was different now, otherwise, this
With one slap, Chen Ran would suffer a lot.
Not counting Chen Min, Chen Ran is also the boss of the Chen family, so old man Chen calls him Da Wa.
Chen Ran also shouted happily: "Uncle."
Old Chen and Chen Ran's brother-in-law, Chen Yang, also heard from the soldiers in the army that Chen Ran was back. Those soldiers knew that Old Chen and Chen Yang were Chen Ran's grandfather and uncle, and they respected them.
Very.
Chen Yang is only twenty-seven years old now, but because he lives in the countryside, he looks a bit old, but he looks very energetic, but he doesn't like to talk much. When he saw Chen Ran coming, he just smiled and nodded to Chen Ran.
nod.
Chen Ran called out affectionately: "Uncle."
Chen Yang chuckled and then said: "Xiao Ran, I heard that you are in great trouble now."
Chen Ran smiled noncommittally.
"Uncle, Chen Ran and I are good buddies. I didn't expect you to be Chen Ran's grandfather." Xiao Jun also greeted Chen Ran's grandfather enthusiastically.
"hehe."
Although Xiao Jun said that he and Chen Ran were good buddies, after all, when Xiao Jun came, he was with the troops. Old Chen was also a farmer. When talking to Xiao Jun, he still couldn't let go and just grinned.
Laughed.
After saying hello, Chen Ran handed the picked game to the soldiers, and then accompanied Old Chen and Chen Yang to talk. He is not the same person now, even if he had deep feelings for his grandfather and uncle.
, I’m afraid I would just bury it in my heart and have nothing to say when we meet, but it’s different now.
When Chen Ran and Xiao Jun came back, it was already dark and a little cold. The soldiers chopped some dry wood and made several fires.
In addition to the lynx and pheasant that Qilin hunted on the road, Chen Ran's grandfather and uncle also hunted three rabbits and a pheasant. Qilin just came back and brought back a wild boar, which is as big as
It's not big, but it weighs sixty or seventy pounds.
Except for the lynx which was roasted directly, all other game was stewed.
What made Chen Ran dumbfounded was that Guo Hai actually put the Polygonum multiflorum he picked up on the road into the pot. As a result, the whole pot turned black, which made everyone present laugh and scold him.
In addition to stewed meat, there are also wild vegetable soup and noodle soup.
After the soup was boiled, Mu Xiaohua, sweating profusely, first brought a large bowl to Chen Ran, and then brought a bowl to Chen Ran's grandfather and uncle, making Chen Dahan very happy.
Although the stewed meat was all black, to be honest, it tasted really good. No one expected that simply boiling hare meat, pheasant meat and wild boar stewed together would be so fragrant, but the color was not that good and dark.
Of course, none of the girls dared to eat the stew. Because of this, Guo Hai was often looked down upon.
Although a lot of food was prepared, there were more than a dozen soldiers present, and the food was divided up.
After dinner, Chen Ran took Guo Hai and the others around the area. They climbed the vines by the stone lake for a while and had a great time. When it got dark, they sat around the fire.
After a while, they each took a rest.
There were too many people, so a few girls slept together, which made Guo Hai's plan come to nothing.
The first night in the jungle passed peacefully and peacefully. I don’t know if it was due to excessive fatigue, but everyone slept relatively deeply...
