Chapter 348: Into the mountains

Fortunately, he did not apologize for Lan'er's feelings for him. In the face of Po Tian's wealth and beauty, he did not waver, and even said, "In my heart, she is a priceless treasure. If one day there will be a bite of food left at home. I would rather starve to death, and I would leave the last bite of food to her".

It can be seen that he is a **** man who values ​​love and righteousness. If it weren't for his love rival, Chun Yumin would almost appreciate him!

Early the next morning, before dawn, Zhang Eryong set off from Taohua Village with a few young and middle-aged people in his village, and went to Shen Ruolan's home in Kaoshantuner.

Go to other villages by yourself, and gather together at that time.

Shen Ruolan deliberately steamed a large pot of steamed buns early in the morning, took a large piece of bacon from the tank and boiled it, and asked Shouya to boil all the eggs and goose in the house, and save it for everyone to satisfy their hunger after entering the mountain.

People from all walks of life joined in Shen Ruolan's home. This time Zhang Eryong found a total of 18 people, all of them were hunters and mountain people from nearby villages, and a few were woodcutters. They were all strong and experienced in the mountains. Young people, of course, are from poor families and want to make some money.

After the horses and horses were gathered, Shen Ruolan's big steamed buns were also steamed, and the meat was boiled. So let everyone sit down and have a meal together. During the meal, Shen Ruolan took out the ghost grass and ginseng flowers she painted (both oil paintings, lifelike images) ) For everyone to see, and tell you the growth habits of these two Chinese herbal medicines, so that you can find them easily.

When Zhang Eryong saw the two small portraits, he suddenly thought of the large portrait of people he saw yesterday. The painting methods of the three portraits are the same, with rich colors, which are quite different from common painting techniques.

Zhang Eryong felt stagnant and couldn't help asking, "Lan'er, did you paint this painting?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Zhang Eryong twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "It's okay, I just think your paintings are pretty good!"

Shen Ruolan laughed and said: "That is, this is my exclusive painting method, called oil painting. I dare say that there is no one in Chu country who knows this way of painting except me, hehehe..."

In order to let everyone get familiar with it as soon as possible and create a warm and warm team atmosphere, Shen Ruolan began to laugh and joke.

Everyone also said and laughed a few words, but Zhang Eryong smiled reluctantly, and the smile lines on his face were like the ones carved on his face.

After joking a few words, Shen Ruolan continued, “We’ll go into the mountain and look for it separately. It may take a few days or even ten days to find it. Everyone has worked hard. Remember, you must connect the roots when you find the ghost grass. To dig it down, it’s best to dig down even the soil. The ghost grass is easy to wither, and if it withers, it is not as valuable as the fresh one."

"No matter who it is, if you get fresh ghost grass, you will get five hundred taels of silver for one coin, and five hundred taels of silver for one dollar of ginseng, but you only need to get ginseng for the elderly. In addition, if you don’t find these two medicines, you don’t need to be discouraged. , I said that everyone who participated in our trip into the mountain to collect medicine, regardless of whether it was collected or not, everyone can get a subsidy of two taels of silver. Besides, you can also collect some wild fruits by the way and sell them to the mountain. I, the price is definitely more than what is offered at the market!"

When everyone heard that there was still such a good thing, they all said happily, "Then the relationship is better, if you don't get anything, it won't be useless..."

**

"Everyone just spread out here, right? If anyone finds it, you can use a double ring to remind me, and then I will follow the noise to find you."

Entering the mountain, Shen Ruolan signaled everyone to scatter and search, and repeatedly told them to be careful, no matter whether they were found or not, they must follow the principle of safety first!

"Lan'er, let's find it together!"

Zhang Eryong was worried about Shen Ruolan and others, and wanted to personally accompany her and protect her.

Shen Ruolan did not refuse, "Okay, let's go together, but you don't need to take my bag, you just need to carry your own things."

"Better give it to me. I have few things, and it's okay to memorize something. The mountain is pitted and pitted, and you will get tired after walking for a while. You will definitely not be able to hold it!" Zhang Eryong insisted.

Shen Ruolan saw that he didn't give up when he didn't reach his goal, so she had to take off the back basket and give it to him.

There was a tent in her back basket. Last morning, she asked Grandma Dong to take apart and wash her and Dong'er two winter-covered beddings. The two beddings were still the bedding that she and her father used when she first walked through. It was transferred to Dong'er and his grandmother.

Those two sets of quilts are torn, or are they made of coarse cloth? Shen Ruolan wanted to change them for a long time, and now they need to make a tent when entering the mountain. The tent is not a common thing. It is a pity and waste to use good fabrics, so I just covered the two sets and washed them. After it was dried, it was used to make a tent.

Shen Ruolan also gave Grandma Dong a couple of silver, so that she could take the time to go to the county or town to redo two new sets of bedding for their grandparents and grandchildren. The cotton in these two sets of old bedding does not need to be kept, it is black and smelly. , It’s all formed into a ball and has no elasticity, it is no longer suitable for heating, and the fire is almost the same...

There are other things in the back basket. The food and use are small and exquisite objects. Many things have been put into the space by her, but since those things are not displayed on the surface, she can't stab them. I took it out and used it secretly in the tent until I went to bed at night.

In the summer forest, there is a lush green.

The fresh air is refreshing, full of the smell of grass and green leaves. The green grass is full of unknown wild flowers, like a large natural carpet, which is soft and rustling when stepping on it.

"Brother Eryong, why did you look so sad today and didn't say anything?" Shen Ruolan saw something in Zhang Eryong's heart and couldn't help but asked with concern.

Zhang Eryong's expression froze a little, and said, "I want to save my strength, otherwise I won't be able to walk for a while!"

"Oh, that's it, then I won't say anything!"

Shen Ruolan also shut up, and went on with Zhang Eryong.

The more you go into the mountains, the better the scenery, the rolling Wolong Mountain, the scenery is beautiful, in the foothills, the trees are verdant, the mountains overlap, the air is fresh, quiet and charming.

When he reached a fork in the road ahead, Zhang Eryong stopped and pointed to the road on the left, saying, I usually go up the mountain to hunt on this road. I have seen ghost grass and ginseng flowers on the other side of the mountain.

When Shen Ruolan heard this, she suddenly became energetic, "Then let's go, how long will it take to get there?"

Zhang Eryong said lightly, "It should be almost noon tomorrow!"

Shen Ruolan squeezed her fists, suffocated herself, and said, "Okay, let's continue walking!"

"Ok!"

"The road to Shanglongtou Peak is extremely rugged and steep, and there is a large elm forest on the way to the top of the peak. There is a wild boar site. I let the wild boar arch it last time."

Although Zhang Eryong was unwilling to speak, she still had to tell her some things in advance, so that she could be mentally prepared, so that she wouldn't be scared by telling her.

"Haha, that's great, my toothpick crossbow is finally useful..."

Not only was Shen Ruolan not afraid, she felt a bit of joy in her heart. She had eaten wild pork, and it tasted much better than home pork. It would be great if she could hit a few of them and eat them slowly in the space!

"In addition to wild boars, there are wolves, but there are not many, so they may not meet..."

"..."

After walking for a while, Shen Ruolan's stomach was a little hungry. When eating this morning, she patronized Zhang Luohe and introduced the two medicines to everyone. She didn't take much of it. After a morning hike, her stomach had already started. Protested to her.

Shen Ruolan said, "Brother Er Yong, let's eat something before leaving!"

Zhang Eryong let out a soft "um", looked up, found a big elm tree with a huge crown and took Shen Ruolan by.

He put his luggage and Shen Ruolan's back basket under the tree roots, and said, "Let's eat here, cool!"

Then he went to relieve the burden on his body, there were a few pieces of dry food in it, which he kept in the mountains to satisfy his hunger.

Surprisingly, Shen Ruolan's hands were faster than his. Before he could take out the dry food, she took out two large white steamed buns and two red-skinned eggs from her back basket.

"Come, take it!"

Shen Ruolan stuffed a big white steamed bun and a hard-boiled egg into his hand, then lowered his head and started eating.
