Pursuing Immortality

Chapter 249: Mallet bird

The four came out of Changqing Village, crossed a narrow glacial river, walked about three or five miles, and entered a poplar forest.

These poplars are towering upright, sparsely planted, and fluffy white snow hangs on the branches of the sky. Instead of being lonely and deserted, they are rather high and quiet.

"..."

Gu Yan looked around, thinking that Master Xiaozhai's grave was in the forest. As a result, she kept walking, leading everyone through the woods, directly to the foot of the mountain.

It all belongs to the west **** of Changbai Mountain. The main entrance is in the scenic area. There are solid mountain roads and stone steps. The others are all wild trails.

Here is no exception, Xiaozhai said nothing, just holding her boyfriend's hand and heading up the mountain. Long Qiu and Xiao Jingxi were very curious, but they didn't dare to ask, and they followed smartly.

This mountain is next to the village, there are many artificial traces, and the road is simply paved with rough wooden boards. Even if it is covered with snow, it will not be too slippery.

The four people walked for a while, and a fork appeared in front of them, one up, very dangerous; one down, relatively flat.

Xiaozhai stood at the intersection and finally said, "This is it."

"Here?" Gu Yan wondered.

"Master was besieged by the Shamanism that year, leaving the root cause behind, and barely maintained it for a year and a half. Consciously his life limit had reached, he entered the mountain alone."

Xiaozhai lifted her head slightly, looking at the lonely steep; it seemed to go straight up the path between the white clouds, and said, "I kept chasing here that day, crying to die or live. She didn't allow me to cry, didn't allow me to ask, didn't allow me to follow, I ’m not allowed to read it. Then, I went up myself and never came back. "

"..."

Gu Yi stunned, he suddenly found that he still underestimated her feelings for Master. Admiration, admiration, worship ... These are not enough, they seem to be higher.

"Did you find it later?" He asked.

"Yes, but I didn't find it, not even a piece of clothing and a relic."

Xiaozhai's eyes were lowered, and he lifted again for a moment, and laughed, "So you ca n’t worship but you ca n’t worship. It ’s all right. Come on, do n’t say this, that way is to go to the Grand Canyon, go. "

As they said, they turned right and ran down the flat road.

Two big ones were walking in front, and two small ones were whispering behind. Long Qiu looked weird and asked, "Xing Xing, my sister's master is male or female?"

"female."

"Oh, I thought it was a man, so it's okay ..."

She smirked twice, somehow reassuring. Xiao Xiong's head melon seeds, immediately understood, whispered: "What's all right? Women are more trouble than men."

"Ah? Why?"

"Because, because ... well, you don't understand what I told you."

"Why don't I understand? Her master must be a very nice, beautiful and powerful person to make her sister miss so far." Long Qiu was not convinced.

Very good, very beautiful, very powerful ...

Xiao Jing twitched her lips, and wanted to give the other party some science knowledge, and thought about giving up.

...

"Is that Shui Yao the one who opened the hotel? I don't think it's very similar.

"His parents are doing business in Xidu. He didn't find a job after college and went straight back to his hometown. He went into the mountains with Shui Ye from an early age. He killed a bear and played well with a shotgun. Fighting for righteousness, making friends, and eating very well in Songjiang River. "

Lengshan was silent and silvery, and the two walked in the snow forest, walking deeper and deeper. Xiaozhai introduced the situation of some childhood playmates, and then summarized with a very precise term:

"Simply put, he is a triad."

"You're really easy to understand." Gu Yiyile.

"He's been arguing with me since he was a kid, and he was beaten up every time. It is said that Shui Ye first wanted to match the two of us, but later he felt bad for his grandson.

"Ha, if this buddy meets you now ... hmm?"

Gu Yi suddenly made a sudden, just now, within the sight of the left eye of his left eye, it seemed to flash a small thing.

"I gonna go see."

He stepped a little, his voice didn't fall, and people had drifted far away. With your feet a few inches off the ground, if you cross in the air, there are no traces on the snow.

"Squeak!"

That thing's four legs moved away and moved at a very high speed. Ordinary people couldn't see the figure with their naked eyes.

How can Gu Gu be faster.

Buxushu deserves to be a relatively advanced way. The whole person turns into a ray of light, and it quickly catches up. He squeezed the small thing by the neck and looked up, but it was a fat sable.

Outside the customs, there are three treasures, ginseng, mink, and ulacao.

Wild sables are extremely rare now, and I don't want to catch one. The fur of this marten is dark brown, with fluffy tail hairs, about 50 cm long.

Eyes and pupils are black, looking big and bright, very energetic.

"..."

Gu Zheng frowned. These eyes gave him a very uncomfortable feeling, as if something was hiding behind him, observing himself through the perspective of Sable.

"I thought it was a mountain rat, it turned out to be it, it was rare when I was a kid ... eh?"

At this point, Xiaozhai also came over and found that it was wrong. She stretched her hands on the sable, sweeping her luck with no exception, and said, "Strange, how do I feel under surveillance?"

"I can't figure out who can spy on us in secret ..."

Gu Yan was also distressed, and suddenly a light bulb lighted up above his head, and laughed, "Is it the mountain **** that Shuiye said?"

"Oh, anything can happen now, even if I really jump out of a mountain **** and talk to us, I can accept it. Leave it alone and continue to hurry."

Xiaozhai threw it gently, and the sable was thrown on the branch.

Gu Yan grabbed it again, and a small layer of transparent restraint was placed around it, smiling: "It's not difficult for you, you can go away after a sleep."

…………

"Basically judged, the original body was Rhodiola rosea in Changbai Mountain. It is 10-20 cm tall, with thick roots, conical, fleshy, brownish-yellow, rhizomes with fibrous roots, covered with scaly leaves. There is no change in form, it is even shorter, we Three trees have been collected and taken back for specific research. "

On a meadow on the **** of Xiangyang Mountain, the team leader finished the above description to the camera.

The meadow here is actually covered with white snow, and clusters of Rhodiola rose in the crevices of protruding rocks.

"Shen Nong's Compendium of Materia Medica" reads: Rhodiola rosea is the best medicine in the medicine, which can lighten the body and nourish the qi. In the Qing Dynasty, it was also used as a court tribute, and was named as a dragon and anchovy by a certain emperor.

This is the clue provided by Shui Yao before. A team of nine researchers searched for half a day and finally saw the real thing.

"Tell the bureau that it can be verified."

The team leader carefully packed the medicinal herbs and then ordered a sentence. Someone immediately lifted the piggyback platform and passed the information back to the branch office.

This piggyback station can be loaded by a single person, and the coordinates will be sent to the nearest base station or satellite receiver every 3 hours, which is more reliable than satellite phones.

After getting it, the team leader looked at the time and said, "It will take about three hours to get dark. We are not far from the Grand Canyon. Speed ​​up and we can meet with the provider.

"There are wooden huts built over the forest farm. They can stay, and our dry food is sufficient. There is no problem." The team member in charge of the guide responded.

"That's good, go now!"

Immediately, a group of nine people went down the mountain trail. Their standard configuration was scientific research + security + guidance, and various instruments and weapons were also complete.

The so-called Grand Canyon is a natural wonder that was discovered more than 20 years ago.

More than 60 kilometers long, the volcanic ash and soil after the volcanic eruption were washed away by the river. There are more than 300 meters at the widest point, only a few meters at the narrowest point, and a vertical depth of 120-150 meters.

They hurry up and finally arrive before dark.

Both sides of the strait were lined with strange rocks and wonders, and now they are covered by snow. The entire gorge seemed empty and empty. Only one Jinjiang river was still living water, rushing down the valley.

"Here it is! Here it is!"

Dressed like a bear, Shui Yao stood in front of the wooden house and waved his hands.

Everyone hurried to get over, the group leader laughed: "Hello, hello, you are Xiaoshui, this trip can trouble you."

"You're welcome. This is my personal hobby. Even without you, I live in the mountains every three minutes."

The two sides simply embarrassed and entered the room together.

The wooden house's cold resistance is good, he even made a fire in advance, making it warmer. Several people sat on the floor, took off their thick cold-proof clothes first, and tore off their boots, struggling on the floor, full of broken scum.

"It's still soothing, and lived all of a sudden."

The team leader does not have the stereotypes of ordinary scientific researchers, but looks very refreshing. Shui Yao looked at the appetite, and then took another pot, and smiled, "Did you not eat yet? I just got it, come!"

That pot lid was lifted, hey! The top is the curtain drawer, stuffed with a pile of cornmeal pie, and the bottom is the hot mixed fish soup, which is delicious. Too much, a 52-degree old village chief.

Nine people have been hungry for a long time, and they also brought out their own canned food and compressed food for everyone to share.

The chopsticks are not enough, the group leader took the fish tail and took a big sip, praising: "Brother, at first glance you are an old river and lake, this viability is okay! Hey, you seem to say before, you Grandpa was helped by Changbai? "

"My grandfather's name is Shui Rong, have you heard that?" The goods looked proud.

"Have heard it, absolutely heard it! My colleague used to come to Changbai Mountain for scientific examinations, or it was the way that the old man took ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Someone succeeded!"

The people chatted for a while, and quickly got to the topic.

The group leader said, "Brother, you can say that bird is a mallet bird. How confident can you be?"

"One hundred percent, I have seen it with my own eyes when I was young. It is impossible to admit it."

Shui Yao was very sure and said, "This bird never came out in winter before, so I was surprised."

"Oh, I heard a little ..."

The leader of the group nodded and said, "Everyone said that it feeds on ginseng seeds, and you can dig up ginseng with it. But I checked the information. It should be called Oriental Horned Owl. The recipe is mainly large insects and small rodents. There is no record that it likes to eat ginseng seeds. "

"Haha! My grandfather has followed a mallet bird and dug out a fifth-grade leaf. Your information is innumerable."

Shui Yao used the backpack as a pillow and lay there with a carefree expression. "You're right to ask me for help. This bird only comes out early in the morning and late at night. We can't wait. What we need to do now is sleep."
