Those small flowers are very beautiful, with red stamens and white petals. Although the flowers are small, there are three layers in total, layered on top of each other, very beautiful.
"This is..." I looked at Yin Shengyao in amazement, and he said calmly, "This is Sanjiuhua. I found them here back then. After the dark fire died, I didn't take them away, but used Put it in a jade box and bury it beside Dark Fire."
I didn't know what to say for a while.
"Why did you give it to me?" I asked cautiously without answering.
"You want to refine the pills to improve mental power?" He said, "Black spider fruit and Yuehua grass are all medicines to improve mental power, and so is this Sanjiuhua. I can help you with any medicinal materials you want If you find it, you only need to give me half of the elixir in the furnace."
Sure enough, he was thinking about it.
I hesitated for a while, and finally took Sanjiuhua and said, "Okay."
He showed a shallow smile and said, "Get in the car."
For some reason, I think he's in a much better mood.
After driving for another half day, we finally arrived at the mountain with moonflower grass when the sun was setting.
The mountain road was rugged and we couldn't drive a car, so we walked all the way up, only to find that there were people on the mountain, more than once.
He winked at me, and we took cover in the woods.
Those were two groups of ginseng diggers. The ginseng diggers in winter all traveled in groups, most of them were fellow villagers from the same place. If something happened, there was someone to take care of them.
In this Changbai Mountain, what is really scary is not the wild beasts and severe cold, but the human heart.
"This ginseng was discovered by us first." A group of people with a southwest accent said.
"You guys discovered it first?" The other group spoke with a southeastern accent and sneered, "Don't you see that ginseng is tied with a red thread?"
Legend has it that ginseng is alive, and old ginseng can walk and run. If a ginseng is found, it cannot be dug up at that time. A red thread must be tied to it. If the ginseng runs away, it can be found along the red line.
In fact, only ginsengs that are more than a thousand years old can become refined, and only after becoming refined can they run. It is impossible for ordinary ginseng to move.
Once ginseng diggers find ginseng, they like to mark it by tying a red string, and some even leave a name on the red string, indicating that they found this ginseng first.
The leader with a southwestern accent is a middle-aged uncle in a thick cotton coat. Those who follow him call him Boss Cai.
Boss Cai sneered twice, and said, "The ginseng on Changbai Mountain, whoever digs it, will belong to him. Don't you tie a red string, so that others can't dig it? How can there be such a reason?"
The leader with a southeast accent, surnamed Ran, is a stout young man with dark skin, and he looks fierce: "If you put down the ginseng today, I can still let you live. If you dare to grab the ginseng from us... hehehe , you don’t want to ask me, who is my brother Ran! This Changbai Mountain, whoever sees me will not give up three points!”
Lao Cai waved his hand and said, "I don't know Brother Ran and Brother Ran! I only believe in death, whoever digs it up."
Brother Ran was furious, picked up his sickle, and widened his eyes: "I chopped you off!"
After all, he picked up the sickle and rushed up.
He seemed to have learned martial arts for a few days, and he was a practitioner. This knife was very powerful, enough to cut off Lao Cai's arm.
Unexpectedly, Lao Cai stood there with a golden knife, standing still, Brother Ran sneered in his heart, hehe, he must have been scared stupid.
When the scythe was about to hit Lao Cai, Lao Cai suddenly made a move. He punched extremely fast and hit Brother Ran in the stomach. Brother Ran flew upside down and fell heavily on him. Among the group of people brought.
"You, you are a martial artist." Brother Ran pointed at him and said, his whole body twitched twice, and he passed out.
As soon as they heard that he was a warrior, the group of people brought by Brother Ran showed panic expressions, and they didn't dare to ask for ginseng, so they dragged Brother Ran away.
Lao Cai had no intention of chasing them. He turned around and said to a young man beside him, "Xiao Jin, look, how old is that ginseng?"
Xiao Jin picked up a ginseng that was still stained with dirt and looked at it carefully for a while, then said excitedly, "Uncle Cai, this ginseng is at least eighty years old."
Everyone was overjoyed: "Eighty years? Now it's over, we're all going to get rich!"
"Last time in our city, a 60-year-old ginseng was auctioned for a high price of 2.8 million. This 80-year-old ginseng will definitely go up to 4 million. The six of us can each share 60. How much!"
"Haha, I can finally buy a house with full money!"
Lao Cai's face darkened, and he said, "You all forgot, we have to take 60% of it as a pension for Lao Huang and his family!"
Everyone was quiet all of a sudden, looked at each other, and were a little unwilling.
Lao Cai's face became even more ugly: "Have you forgotten that when we were in danger in the mountains, if it hadn't been for Lao Jin and the others who risked their lives to save us, we would have died long ago. Where would we be today? It was agreed at the beginning that every time we harvest, we must 60% will be given to their families."
Everyone was silent, and one of the bearded men said: "Old Cai, the money we have distributed to them in the past two years is no less than one million. If we continue to divide it like this, when will it be a head? It is a repayment. This life-saving The kindness has been repaid, right?"
"Yes." The other said, "We have risked our lives for this ginseng, why should we distribute it to those who have never left the house."
Everyone was very dissatisfied, Lao Cai's eyes were full of anger, and he shouted: "Could it be that you have so many lives, and they are only worth one million? Lao Li's family has a son with cerebral palsy, and Lao Fang's daughter is not in good health. They are our saviors."
Everyone still wanted to say something, but Lao Cai yelled angrily: "Don't say anything, I have already decided! Anyone who has an opinion, it is against me!"
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they dared not speak out due to his strength.
At this time, I saw a flash of resentment in the eyes of that bearded man.
Lao Cai waved his hand: "Let's continue walking to the top of the mountain and see if we can dig anything else."
Yin Shengyao gave me a wink, and we followed them quietly. When we reached the top of the mountain, they rested in a wooden house. The group of people worked together, the one who boiled the water, and the one who cooked the food.
When the meal was over, the bearded man spoke again: "Old Cai, you have taken care of us for so many years, and we respect you very much. But you also have to think about us. We all have old and young, and my son is about to go to school." He's in high school, and I've always wanted him to go to a good high school, and this time I have to pay a school selection fee of 200,000."
Lao Cai's face turned cold, and he said, "Old Wang! It's enough to share your money this time. I'll say it again, if anyone disagrees, don't follow me in the future. I will never force it."
Lao Wang clenched his fists tightly, and anger flashed in everyone's eyes.
"Lao Cai, I understand. Let's stop talking about this, drink, drink." Lao Wang didn't insist, and everyone started pushing glasses. Changed, threw the glass wine glass in his hand on the ground, and said angrily: "What did you put in the wine?"
After finishing speaking, his legs went limp, and he fell to the ground, with blood spurting out of his mouth.
Lao Wang also smashed his wine glass, stood up abruptly, and said loudly: "Lao Cai, don't blame us for being cruel. We did this for the sake of our wives and children! We know you are a good person, but good people don't end well. Look Your wife and children are still squeezed into a small house of fifty square meters, we don’t want our family to live like this.”
"Yeah, Lao Cai, we don't want to." Although the other people were cruel, they also had a bit of shame in their eyes.
At this moment, the young man named Xiao Jin picked a lot of fungus and walked in from the door. Seeing Lao Cai covered in blood, his face changed drastically: "You, what are you doing?"
Lao Cai was startled, and shouted, "Xiao Jin, hurry up, go!"
Xiao Jin dropped the fungus in his hand, turned around and ran, these people are all Lianjiazi, but they are not as strong as Lao Cai, one of them rushed up, punched Xiao Jin on the head, and knocked Xiao Jin unconscious past.
