Chapter 106: For Li Siyu, we must also seize this wild ginseng
Jijiji~
Shashasha~
"Woof woof woof, woof woof~"
The sound of birds chirping, the sound of leaves blowing in the wind, and Xiaobai's howling with excitement and joy.
Zhang Hao leaned on crutches and kept twirling the weeds at his feet. He looked at the intermittent traces on the ground. Xiaobai still kept sniffing the air and sniffing the traces on the ground, as if he had received the owner's attention. Appreciate it, still trying hard to help the master complete the task.
Liang Jianzhong and his siblings were full of expectations and excitement, and the smiles on their faces never stopped.
Once a person has hope, he will feel that his whole body is full of strength, full of energy, yearning, and unfounded self-confidence for the road ahead.
Just as Liang Jianzhong hoped, today, that is, in the near future, he can see "Zoushan Ginseng", can see the hope of curing his hidden disease, and can see that he will no longer suffer from hidden diseases in the future. , can spend his old age like a normal old man.
This is exactly what he is thinking now. Even if Zhang Hao has already stated that it may not be the traces left by "Wandering Ginseng", even if it is, he doesn't know when it was the trace left by "Wandering Ginseng". This is also There was no hindrance to the fire of hope that rose in his heart.
"Woof woof woof, woof woof~"
At this time, Xiaobai's crisp howl pulled him back from his thoughts. His cloudy eyes instantly became clear. He looked at Xiaobai who stopped where he was, howling towards the sky, and Zhang Zhang. Hao Ye paused and looked down at the ground, his back turned to their figures.
His throat was crawling, his thoughts were diverging, and he asked cautiously in a low voice: "Brother Zhang, have you discovered something?"
As soon as Liang Qian and Liang Chao heard this, they immediately came forward, their faces full of anticipation.
"The traces stop here and disappear for the time being." Zhang Hao responded without any emotion. He turned around and didn't look at the people. Instead, he looked around at the surrounding environment, the trees, and everything that could be seen in this dense forest. Something seen on the surface.
After following here, the traces disappeared, and there was no trace ahead. There was only one possibility, that is, the "Wandering Mountain Ginseng" entered the soil when it came here. Anyway, it would never disappear for no reason, or be destroyed. People were taken away.
In this world, except for him who obtained the [Illustrated Record of Travels on the Mountain] and the inheritance of the Mountain Walker, no one should know about these things.
Liang Jianzhong has been searching for a cure for hidden diseases for many years, but only one traditional Chinese medicine doctor told him that the medicinal material Tianheyuan is useful. If anyone really knew the secret history of this "walking mountain", I am afraid that Liang Jianzhong would have been obsessed with getting this "walking" "Ginseng", there is no need to find yourself here.
Moreover, "walking mountain ginseng" is not stupid. Since it can walk in the mountains, it means that it has become a spirit. Can the things that become spirits in the mountains be picked up casually? That's impossible.
Even if he was fully prepared, he couldn't guarantee that he could catch the "Wandering Ginseng" 100%. That thing was really too cunning.
If the "walking ginseng" burrows into the soil and continues to walk elsewhere, things will be difficult to handle.
He couldn't dig up the soil according to the traces and look for the traces bit by bit, right? This is not realistic. If we really dig up the soil, the traces will be long gone. It is impossible to find the "walking ginseng" by touching the ginseng.
"Brother Zhang, are we...lost?" Liang Jianzhong asked uncertainly, with a slight loss in his eyes.
Zhang Hao nodded: "At present, it is like this."
"Oh...heh, sure enough, something like this is so easy to catch." Liang Jianzhong's eyes dimmed, but he couldn't help but laugh.
Liang Qian stepped forward, gently held Grandpa's hand, and comforted her with a smile: "Don't be discouraged, Grandpa. Brother Zhang Hao also said that it's just that the traces have been temporarily lost. Maybe we can see it again if we move forward, right." Right? ”
Liang Chao felt his sister's eyes and immediately understood: "That's right, Grandpa, don't worry, we have to believe in Brother Zhang Hao's ability. If he is so powerful, he will definitely find a way."
Zhang Hao almost spit out blood.
Thank you for trusting me so much!
After cursing, he ignored the three people and continued to look at the dense forest.
He was looking at the surrounding environment to determine why the "Wandering Ginseng" passed by here.
"Walking Mountain Ginseng" is born with a mechanism to protect itself. It will definitely not choose to appear in front of mountain spirits and wild monsters, as well as those mountain spirits with higher spirituality. This is to avoid being attacked by mountain spirits and wild monsters. It's strange that there are mountain spirits who snatch and eat them.
After all, this thing also wants to live longer, and also wants to become a high-level person in this mountain, so as to better protect itself.
Therefore, as long as there are traces in this dense forest, it means that there are no wild monsters or mountain spirits.
In other words, there are no mountain treasures and no wild beasts nearby.
But the strange thing is, why are there no traces of "walking wild ginseng" here? This is not common sense.
Is it possible that the "Wandering Mountain Ginseng" turned back here again?
[Illustrated Records of Traveling in the Mountains] It is recorded that although things like "Zoushan Ginseng" have become spirits, they have no intelligence. To put it simply, they have no brains. They can only rely on their own protection mechanisms and powerful Do things instinctively.
This is also the normal situation of most mountain elves and wild monsters. Just like the foxes who got married before, they actually have no IQ at all.
In this way, the result that can be obtained so far is that "Zoushan Ginseng" has disappeared here, and where it went is currently unknown.
If that's the case...
Zhang Hao squinted his eyes and groped for the little stubble that sprouted from his chin. After hesitating for a moment, he squatted down, placed the spirit-solidifying basket on the ground, took out all the things he had prepared before, and One placed on the ground. Hundreds of villages of soil, mountain ropes, river mud, village ashes, and two candles, one white and one red, both candles have traces of burning.
These things were placed in order. Zhang Hao stared at them for a long time and sighed silently.
Several other things have been completed, that is, the yin and yang candle... there is still one most critical step left, which is to ignite the ghost fire and let it burn, then the yin and yang candle will be completed.
Of course, Yin and Yang candles are by no means that simple to make. You need to light two candles, one white and one red, at the foot of the mountain within a specific period of time.
After that, on the yin year, yang month, yin day, when yin and yang alternate, a ghost fire must be ignited in the mountain, and the yin and yang candle can be completed.
And the most important thing is that the candlestick has a time limit. When the candle ends burning, the candlestick will become invalid.
Zhang Hao has completed the initial steps at the foot of the mountain. He only needs to light the two candles with the mountain ghost fire within a specific time to complete the yin and yang candle.
This is also the reason why he chose to go up the mountain today, because today is the only day in this month that is a yin day in a yin year and a yin day in a yang month.
If you miss it, you have to wait until next month.
He took out his phone and looked at the time.
10:31.
It happened to be Si hour, nearly half an hour before noon.
In other words, if Zhang Hao wants to complete the yin and yang candle, he must be prepared within this half hour, wait for the time points of 10:59 and 11:00, and choose the opportunity to light the yin and yang candle. By then, the yin and yang candle will be completed. , all his preparations are over, and he can catch the "Wandering Ginseng".
However, he is still hesitating now. The main reason is that this "Wandering Ginseng" is unpredictable. He has no idea where this "Wandering Ginseng" will appear from, and the time of Yin Yang Candle is limited. Logically speaking, Only when you are completely sure can you use this method to catch "walking ginseng".
However, if we don't try to catch the "Wandering Ginseng" this time, not to mention having to wait until next month, the next time we come again, we may not be able to find the traces left by the "Wandering Ginseng" so smoothly.
After weighing it, Zhang Hao gritted his teeth and decisively reached out to the wooden box wrapped in Baijiatu.
"Brother Zhang, are you... making preparations to catch the "Wandering Ginseng"?" Liang Jianzhong looked at it for a while and finally couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Hao nodded: "Well, if you don't catch me this time, you will have to try your luck in the future."
"But, haven't the traces disappeared?" Liang Chao asked bluntly.
Zhang Hao frowned: "Since the "Wandering Ginseng" has left traces here, it proves that it has been active here, and there is a chance, but the chance may not be great."
Then, he turned to look at Liang Jianzhong and asked: "Mr. Liang, please agree in advance that if I make a mistake this time and fail to catch the "Wandering Ginseng", I will trouble you to help me prepare Baijia." Soil.”
Liang Jianzhong was startled, then waved his hand: "No problem, Brother Zhang, you can get as many of these as you want. I can cooperate with you as many times as you want."
"Well, that's naturally the best." Zhang Hao nodded: "You guys stand here and don't move around. It's best to stand where you are. I'll come as soon as I go."
After saying that, under the doubtful eyes of several people, he held the wooden box containing hundreds of soils and walked towards the west, until he walked out of the sight of several people and disappeared into the dense forest.
Xiaobai also followed him at his feet and left with him.
Seeing this, Liang Chao looked at the direction where Zhang Hao disappeared, moved his mouth a few times, his brain twitched, and exclaimed: "Grandpa, Brother Zhang Hao wouldn't have left us in the mountains! He would have really left us there." Here, we are not going down the mountain!”
Liang Jianzhong's eyes twitched and his hands trembled.
"What are you talking about! How could Brother Zhang Hao leave us behind!" Liang Qian grabbed her brother's ears and scolded him.
……
"Woof woof woof, woof woof~"
Zhang Hao looked at Xiao Bai who was following him, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up, forming a smile.
"Xiao Bai, this is a very good training opportunity."
"Woof woof woof, woof woof~"
Zhang Hao smiled and sighed: "To be honest, it is quite difficult to catch this "Wandering Wild Ginseng" this time, but there is no other way. I have to catch this "Wandering Wild Ginseng" for your sister Siyu. ”
Xiaobai tilted his head, as if he understood, and howled: "Woof woof!"
There will be an update, after six o'clock!
