Chapter 113: The Mute Speaks, The Iron Tree Blossoms
In fact, there is no need for people to compare the universe to realize their own insignificance, because too strong contrast will make people automatically ignore the huge gap between the two.
As long as you walk into the mountains without famous attractions and tour guides shaking the little red flags everywhere, and walk in the endless jungle, you will be deeply shocked by nature.
Suolong Ridge is a real isolated place in the world. There are no supply points, no roads, no warm travel stations and a person walking backpacking and staring at your girl with ambiguous eyes in the magical Jiucungou. In the magical Jiucungou, you can encounter a love that comes to you, and here you can only encounter a crisis that comes to you.
Snakes, wild wolves, mountain pigs, poisonous leeches, poisonous mosquitoes...
Except for the tigers, leopards and beasts that are almost extinct in this era, there are all things that should be. After being stared by a mosquito, Wang Qiang even began to have audio hallucinations, stubbornly thought that he had just seen a tiger in the dense jungle and had a strong desire to inform his companions of this discovery.
Xu Changsheng was disdainful of this at all, so he jumped in front of Malatang and screamed "Ah Wu A Wu" in his mouth.
Malatang looked at him blankly, and suddenly tripped him to the ground, then took out a small pottery bottle from his arms, poured out a green, oily and sticky liquid, and wiped all the exposed skin on his face, hands, legs and all the exposed skin.
This medicine that specializes in avoiding poisonous insects is very effective, but it is not very good-looking and it feels so sticky when applied to the body, so Wang Qiang refused at the beginning.
Malatang turned her head and looked at Xu Changsheng, fearing that his actions would cause Mr. Xu's displeasure.
The girl in the mountains has learned to hunt since she was a child. It is a piece of cake to fall a guy who has been bitten by a poisonous mosquito and has a vision. But this dish is her big customer, and she still has her hope of walking out of the mountains. Malatang doesn't want to offend them.
Xu Changsheng stretched out a thumb at her and praised him, "Good skills, and you did a good job just now."
Malatang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then happily pulled Wang Qiang up and gave him another medicine. Wang Qiang now knew that Malatang was for his own good, so he could only drink it in a depressing way.
Wang Qiang and Malatang were awake and stared at Xu Changsheng together, their eyes very, very strange.
Both of them were painted similar to green-headed parrots, but Xu Changsheng was still refreshing. He didn't use the liquid to repel mosquitoes, but he didn't even have half a mosquito that could fall down, and he didn't even sweat much. He was leisurely like spending a vacation by the beach.
Wang Qiang snorted, thinking that if he was not a civil servant, he could have practiced a Taoist with Lao Xu? But Malatang's eyes were getting brighter and brighter. She had only seen such a strange thing in Taoist Master Xu Qing of Wuming Temple in Wuming Mountain, 500 miles away. He was an old god.
Moreover, even the old immortal Taoist Master Xu Qing refused to come to lock Long Ridge. This Mr. Xu must be a capable person and may be comparable to Taoist Master Xu Qing.
People who can't speak usually have a brilliant heart. Malatang is innocent and simple, but it does not mean that she lacks wisdom. The little girl has begun to pay attention to Lao Xu secretly...
"How far is this place from Suolong Ridge?"
Looking at the path in front of him that could no longer be called a road, Xu Changsheng frowned slightly.
He didn't care about walking for a few more days, but Wang Qiang, a guy who was strong outside and fucked at the same time, was obviously no longer able to do it. Malatang was also holding on. If someone got tired of him, he would have to use Taoism, which would probably alarm the mysterious mountain monster.
Xu Changsheng really admired Xiaoli. As a restored soldier, Wang Qiang was too far apart from others. Could it be that this yoga technique is so magical that it can make a girl walk alone in the mountains, so that two big men and a mountain citizen who are familiar with geography cannot catch up?
Malatang Awu Awu gestured for a long time, but unfortunately she was born in the mountains and fields since childhood and could not even speak formally. No one except familiar people could understand what she meant.
Wang Qiang looked at it with a green face for a long time, and suddenly said, "Brother Xu, aren't you very capable? Can't you help Malatang to see this mute disease?"
"You can see it, but you can't see it here. Malatang, are there any caves nearby? It's the kind that can enter the abdomen of the mountain if it's very deep?"
Xu Changsheng looked up at the sky: "The rain is coming, and it is a bit late, so we must find this place to stay."
Malatang nodded and walked forward a hundred meters with the two of them. Suddenly, she pushed away the grass and walked towards a hidden path.
I felt like this time it was going all the way down, with the thatch on both sides getting deeper and deeper, and finally submerged everyone in it, and there was no road under my feet, some were bird droppings and rotten leaf clovers.
Malatang kept walking down like a horse who met the road. After walking for more than half an hour, she suddenly realized that a clear lake water appeared.
Perhaps it is the reason for the mineral vulcanization of the lake, and the lake is heartbreaking. With the lake water dozens of meters deep, you can still see the swaying water plants at the bottom of the lake and the giant trees scattered under the water.
Such scenery can also be seen in Jiucungou, which is named after water. However, although the water in Jiucungou is beautiful, there are many people, and there are crowds of people taking photos everywhere. Apart from three people and an old ghost hiding in the gourd, there are only a few water gulls that occasionally pass by the lake, making a few crisp chirping from time to time.
This is a small valley with the lake as the center. Except for the gentle slope that the three of them just walked down, there are steep and upright mountain walls on three sides, mainly composed of limestone structure, which looks majestic and magnificent.
“So beautiful…”
Wang Qiang suddenly felt a little emotional. The dark willows and bright flowers brought people a huge shock, which could turn the rough embryo into a poet, but this guy didn't make a decent sentence when he searched for the dry intestines. He had to stare at Malatang and asked, "Where is the hole?"
The cave is on the mountain wall on the left, twenty or thirty meters high from the lake. It may be that hunters and herb collectors who enter the mountain often rest here, so a winding stone path was carved out on the mountain wall, and ropes were pulled on both sides of the stone path to facilitate walking.
The inclination of the stone path is probably not more than 85 degrees, but it is nothing here in Malatang. The little girl used her hands and feet together, and quickly climbed into the cave like a flexible monkey, and then waved down with a smile, meaning that they were about to come up quickly.
Xu Changsheng smiled slightly, gently carried his hands on his back, and gently tapped the stone steps under his feet, and quickly "strike" to the entrance of the cave.
Malatang looked at him with tongues, her little face was filled with shock and her mouth was whimpering. She was so surprised that this stone path was difficult to climb, and even the best hunter in the village was not as relaxed as Mr. Xu.
She wanted to use a suitable word to describe what Xu Changsheng looked like just now, but after a few days of school, the 17-inch black and white TV at home could not receive any signal, and she had never watched the TV series. She really didn't know the word "simple".
"I'll go, is this kid still human..."
Wang Qiang was stunned for a long time before climbing the cave with his hands and feet. As soon as he wiped his sweat, he saw Xu Changsheng frowned at him and said, "Brother Wang, why are you doing so early? It's going to rain. You should get some water and dry firewood from below first, and then come up, otherwise how can we make a fire and cook?"
"ah?"
Wang Qiang's eyes widened: "Didn't you say it earlier?"
"Go down and get water and firewood... You were infected with mosquito poison before, so it's not enough to rely on drugs alone. You can move more and let the poison be discharged with sweat."
"Damn, is it your reason?"
Wang Qiang looked up and down with extremely suspicious eyes: "Exercise is good for anyone, so you should go with me. Life lies in exercise!"
"That won't work. I have to stay and treat Malatang."
Xu Changsheng smiled slightly: "Have you never heard of it? The mute talks and the iron tree blooms. This is a bit difficult. I have to do my best. How can I still have time to do these rough work?"
"What did you say? I heard it right? Can you really let Malatang speak?"
Wang Qiang was shocked and happy for Malatang again.
"I always have to give it a try. Actually, I'm not sure. I can only see how lucky Malatang is..."
