It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening when Leyun arrived at Mount Wutai.
Changshou Village belongs to H North Province, and Wutai Mountain is the most famous scenic spot in S Province. The two places belong to different provinces. It normally takes more than four and a half minutes to take a shortcut from Changshou Village to Wutai Mountain and take the county road.
Taihang in autumn is a good season for traveling and mountaineering. People from all over the country rush to Taihang to travel in large numbers. During the day, there are long lines of cars and tourists both at the scenic spots and on every road leading to them.
Knowing that there are many tourists during the day, the traffic will inevitably be crowded, so Le Yun chose to set off in the evening. However, even if she was traveling at night, there was still an endless stream of self-driving cars and tour buses on the road. The speed should not be too fast, and it took more than five minutes to reach the destination.
.
Wutai Mountain belongs to the Northern Taihang Mountains. It is composed of a series of mountains and peaks. It is more than 500 miles in circumference and has five highest peaks. The mountains are majestic and continuously surrounded. There are no trees on the top of the mountain and are shaped like a platform of earth, so it is known as
Mount Wutai.
The whole area of Wutai Mountain spans many counties. If you only say that you are going to Mount Wutai without specifying the exact place, then it is generally understood that you are going to Taihuai Town, the Buddhist cultural activity center of Mount Wutai.
At around eleven o'clock at night, even the tourist resort of Taihuai Town lost its hustle and bustle during the day and gradually became quiet, with only some lights visible in the distance.
Le Yun's car did not stop in the town, but went straight to the Nantai of Mount Wutai, which is more than ten kilometers south of the town. Nantai is the most beautiful among the five mountains and has the richest medicinal plants in the area.
The taxi drove in the dark to the foot of Nantai Mountain. Master Gao looked at the young guest who was about to get out of the car, feeling helpless and worried: "Little girl, do you have to climb the mountain in the middle of the night?"
As a taxi driver, he is used to seeing many customers, many of whom are persistent and many behave strangely, but this little customer refreshed his understanding.
"Yeah, yeah, the person following me is so energetic, I'll take him to climb the mountain and enjoy the night view." Le Yun turned over the small backpack in front of her, counting the red notes, and curling her lips happily.
"What if he is a bad guy?" Master Gao was particularly worried. The car behind them followed them all the way from Changshou Village. He was really afraid that he was a bad guy.
During the National Day, there were many vehicles coming and going. He originally thought that the vehicle behind him was going in the same direction as him. It happened to be on the same road. The young guest said that it was following her, so he paid attention. Sure enough, he found that the vehicle was different from the other vehicles.
He may be ahead or behind, but one of them always follows his car, never too far or too close, keeping a distance and not losing track.
"I'm not a bad person. Someone hired someone to protect me. I came to the mountains this time to look for medicine. The patient's family was afraid that I would not be safe alone, so they asked someone to protect me along the way. I don't like people following me, so they had to follow quietly."
"Then be careful. If anything goes wrong, call me and I'll call the police for you." Master Gao didn't want to interfere with the guest's decision and told her to be careful. To be honest, his daughter is younger than the little guest. If
He would definitely be worried if the girl traveled alone.
Le Yun counted fifteen red tickets to the driver, opened the door and got out of the car with a smile, turned around and picked up the bulging backpack: "Uncle, I probably won't go down the mountain until at least the 8th and the 9th, you don't have to
Urgent, just drive the car as fast as you want."
She was not going to take the train back to Beijing because she would have to carry some medicinal materials, medicinal soups refined into juices, and collected plant resins, which might be detained during the security check. In order to reduce the trouble, she decided to hire a taxi back.
It was too troublesome to find a driver at the last minute, so she made a deal with the taxi driver. He would take her to Wutai Mountain and rent his car when she wanted to return to Beijing. Of course, she would not pay any of the travel expenses from Han to Wutai Mountain and from Wutai to the capital.
few.
Taxi drivers have to pay company employees money every month, and the average monthly salary is about three to four thousand. If you rent a taxi, you will earn more than your monthly salary. Drivers who are good at this kind of business generally won't refuse.
"Okay." Master Gao happily put away the fare and watched the young passenger slowly move more than ten meters up the mountain with a flashlight, then reverse the car and turn around to return.
He drove dozens of meters away and passed the taxi following behind him. He followed Master Gao's taxi to the mountaineering intersection and stopped. The taxi customer was a middle-aged man in his forties with the most ordinary Chinese character face.
, that appearance is the kind that can’t be picked out in a crowd.
He was carrying a large hiking backpack that was only one meter high and a tent sleeping bag. Because the night was very cold, he wore long-sleeved sportswear. After paying, he turned on a flashlight and climbed up the mountain along the hiking trail.
"What a weirdo. He came here to climb the mountain in the middle of the night." He turned the car around, muttered, and returned to town leisurely.
The middle-aged man dimmed the light of his flashlight so weakly that it could only illuminate the path under his feet. Following the light in front of him from a distance, the light heading up the mountain was vaguely visible. After a while, it suddenly disappeared.
Yes, it disappeared. At first he thought it was turning or being blocked, but it still didn't appear after more than ten minutes.
The middle-aged man speeded up and hurriedly rushed to the place where the visual light disappeared to check. The road section there was high. No matter whether he climbed up or down, as long as there was a light source, he would be able to see it. At the same time, there was a sparse forest next to the road section.
.
He checked the traces along the edge of the woods. There were probably many tourists who had gone in and out of the woods. There were more than a dozen traces of people stepping on them. However, because it was not past midnight and the dew had not yet condensed, there were no particularly obvious reference points.
He could tell at a glance whether they were new trampled tracks or those that had been trampled during the day, so that he could not tell whether the man had gone into the woods to hide, or whether he had gone forward in the dark.
After standing there for a long time, the middle-aged man slowly climbed forward again with his luggage on his back. When he reached almost halfway up the mountain, he still couldn't see the light source. He knew that he had lost someone again, so he found a flat place to sleep in the open.
.
It was extremely cold on the mountain at night. The middle-aged man had a sleeping bag and slept in the wild for a night. As soon as it got dark, he packed up his tent and sleeping bag, ate compressed biscuits to satisfy his hunger, and climbed up the mountain again, watching with a telescope while climbing.
Le Yun did go into the woods. She originally wanted to climb forward and have a "friendly" chat about life with someone who was also very interested in climbing mountains in the middle of the night. When she walked to the section with woods, she smelled
With a faint fragrance, he didn't care whether he was a friend or an enemy, so he happily got into the woods, climbed back into space and waited for dawn.
Sneak back to your own private territory, take care of the medicinal crops, sleep beautifully, get up before dawn to meditate, wash your face and eat, wait until dawn breaks in the east, happily put on water shoes and waterproof hiking clothes, and flash out
space, distinguishing the direction of the smell, and running towards the depths of the woods like a joy.
In the early morning, there was still mist and heavy dew on the mountain peaks. The woods were damp and cold, and the light was extremely dark.
With a pair of sparkling beautiful almond eyes, Le Yun didn't care about the thick dew or the dim light. She happily jumped up and down in the woods, digging for medicinal materials while looking for the source of the fragrance. After searching for a long time, she finally found the source of the fragrance - a cluster.
mushroom.
Mushroom is a unique game from the Nantai Peak of Wutai Mountain - Silver Plate Mushroom. It has the same medicinal and nutritional value as matsutake. It is also one of the health treasure mushrooms. Its fragrance is rich and fragrant. The farther away from the growing point, the stronger the fragrance.
It has high nutritional value and delicious taste. It was once a royal tribute of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The Silver Plate Mushroom is milky white from the root to the crown, and its flesh is fat and solid. It grows in old forests or grasses in deep mountains with fertile soil. Its growth pattern has certain rules. It is difficult to find even in the peak growing season. Its best picking period is
From the beginning of autumn to the white dew, October of the New Calendar is already the end of autumn, well past the peak growing season, and it is even rarer to see it in the mountains.
The production of silver plate mushrooms is rare, and the supply exceeds supply in the production areas. Le Yun's nose is sharper than a dog's nose. When she smells the fragrance, she immediately gives up the opportunity to chat with someone about life and decides to look for something that smells fragrant first. What?
People just let him continue to mess around.
There were not many mushrooms, about a dozen or so, emerging from under the dead leaves of the grass in the woods. Some had open umbrellas, and a few had just emerged from the ground, holding small heads that were not wet with dew.
The place is at least seven or eight miles away in a straight line from the mountain climbing road. It is actually over half a hill, and is far away from the road.
If it weren't for her sharp nose, Le Yun wouldn't have been able to find it. At this moment, seeing the result that she had spent all morning to find, she felt very happy. She chopped down a small wooden stick and slowly pushed away the dead grass and leaves.
, lest you accidentally trample the mushrooms hidden in the grass when you walk over.
I ran to the place where the mushrooms were growing, picked them and put them in a small plastic round basket and threw them back into the space. I took out the flower pots and hoe to dig out the soil, collected seven or eight pots of soil, and then filled all the nearby places within a certain range.
After searching again, I only found seven or eight scattered mushrooms.
I could no longer search for silver plate mushrooms, so I quickly returned to space and planted some unopened small mushrooms in the corner of the medicine field. I poured some well water into several flower pots and then took care of the space crops.
Harvest the fruits, vegetables and herbs that should be harvested.
After finishing the work, Le Xiaoxiao put on a backpack and took a small hoe to go out into the world again to look for medicinal materials. The reason why she carried a backpack was just in case someone saw her while enjoying the scenery on the opposite mountain or on the top of the mountain.
I would regard her as a free explorer and not pay too much attention to her. If a person wanders around the mountains empty-handed, it will be too easy to attract suspicion and attention.
Autumn comes early in the mountains, and it changes every day. The autumn mood was not too strong in the days when Le Yun first arrived at Motianling in Han City. In just a few days, the forests in the Taihang Mountains were dyed with autumn colors, and the autumn mood was all over the mountains.
The Taihang Mountains in autumn have the beauty of autumn. There are as many tourists as an ox in the Taihang Mountains, and as many as ants in the Wutai Mountains. The roads up and down the mountain are overcrowded everywhere.
Le Yun had no time to look at the scenery, so she secretly shuttled through the woods and mountains, digging for medicinal materials as if she was trying to make a fortune, trying to stay away from the crowd. Of course, no matter how hard she tried to avoid it, she would inevitably encounter free outdoor people sometimes.
She didn't stay long at the Nantai peak. She wandered around for a day, then abandoned Nantai the next day and headed towards Zhongtai and Dongtai along the Beitai route.
On the fourth day, that is, at noon on October 6, in a mountain range between Beitai and Dongtai Mountains, a gray-headed man climbed up the steep cliffs and vines like a little monkey, and climbed over a rock.
Landing in a place that no one has visited for an unknown period of time.
It is located about three-quarters of the total altitude of the mountain, closer to the peak. The mountains and the mountain are covered with trees. There is a small valley just above the steep rock wall, backed by the mountain on three sides.
One side is slightly lower, facing another mountain.
The location of the valley is excellent, with trees and grassy slopes. There is also a water hole in one place. The water makes a circuitous path along the lower part of the valley and flows down a cliff. During the dry season, the line of water is not surprising.
If there is enough rain in summer, it will surely become a beautiful waterfall.
"Ah, my aunt is so exhausted!" Le Yun finally climbed over the steep rock wall and sat down under a tree. She took off her gloves and dusted the grass clippings and moss above her head.
This place was too difficult for his grandfather to find. It was surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and there was only one steep rock wall that could barely be climbed. She spent a lot of energy and went around in a big circle before borrowing the stone wall between the walls.
Vines and trees climb up.
The journey was too difficult. Even though she had strange strength and was so light and agile, it still took her nearly half a day. This shows how difficult it is to find this place.
Why do you have to climb up to this hollow valley?
The reason is simple, there is something here that attracts her.
After getting rid of the grass clippings, broken branches and other powdery fragments on her head and neck, Le Yun put on her gloves again, looked at the trees around her, picked the tallest tree, hugged the tree pole and climbed up in one breath.
Go to the top of the tree and have a commanding view.
The small valley is surrounded by mountains. It is located high up and has cliffs. It is a unique geographical location. If there is fog between the mountains and ridges, it will look like a fairyland on earth.
Le Yun sat on the top of the tree and saw a swarm of bees flying in a line from a place more than ten meters away, flying to the side near the main peak of the mountain, and then got into the green trees with red and yellow leaves, and,
Not only are there bees in one direction, there are also bees flying in and out in formation from the other two directions.
In addition to the bees, there is also a medicinal fragrance that hits your nose.
She turned on the X-ray of her eyes, scanned around, and easily found a piece of spiritual energy. The spiritual energy there was so thick that it was beyond imagination, making people... well, it made the blood of the birthmark on her arm boil.
She discovered this place on the opposite mountain. She was looking for it in this direction after a medicinal smell and honey peaks. She climbed to the halfway point of the opposite mountain. When she was looking for the source of the medicinal smell, she saw a white light in a small recess of the mountain here.
The white light was like a small white cloud hanging over the woods, never dissipating.
Le Yun never dreamed that there would be such a strong aura on an unknown mountaintop among such mountains. She immediately rushed to the place of aura without hesitation. She learned the climbing spirit of apes and finally climbed up the cliff.
The valley above.
Reiki Wow Reiki!
There must be a peerless treasure, so it has such a strong aura.
Sitting on the treetop branch, Le Yun saw the rich spiritual energy cloud, which made her little heart beat wildly. She grinned to the back of her ears. How could she have the mood to observe others? She hugged the tree numbly and giggled.
He slid to the ground, grabbed the hatchet, plunged into the bushes, and ran in the direction of the aura: "Baby, treasure, wait for me, here I come!"
