The sun still hangs brightly in the western sky, and the warm sunshine shines on the vast mountains. The thick fog has long since dispersed. The blue sky with a few floating white clouds is clear and lonely, and the green forest is dense and translucent. It is exactly

When it is neither cold nor hot, both body and soul feel so relaxed and happy, extremely comfortable!

All the wild ginseng was dug out, packed carefully, and put into Feng Runtian's arms, where they were kept under their care.

On this day and night, the three of them didn't eat anything. They just asked Chaoshan to go down the mountain to carry water, and drank cold water. They spent this busy, nervous, surprising, and exciting day and night.

Now that they rested, the three of them really felt hungry.

"We will check everywhere for the last time to see if the ginseng seeds have been planted and if the things we need to do have been forgotten. Then we will go down the mountain. We will take a few sips of cold water while walking. After we go down the mountain, we will also worship this sacred mountain.

!”

"If we keep searching, we still have some time, I guess this sacred mountain still has a stick! It can last for another day tomorrow, so it's not easy to come here."

Boss Feng became energetic at this time and asked to look for it again. It seemed that such a big harvest had not satisfied his desire. He hoped that there would be more surprises.

But Feng Runtian firmly disagreed, saying that if you find the old ginseng king, you have to stop. This is a rule and cannot be broken! You can't look for it anymore. Now go down the mountain to worship the sacred mountain!

Han Chaoshan also said that it was time to go back, and he could not be too stubborn. Boss Feng did not dare to insist too much.

So the three of them trotted separately to check each starting point, and then quickly went down the mountain together.

They held the last pious mountain worship ceremony at the foot of the mountain, and hurriedly left this sacred mountain that had given them great rewards.

When it was getting completely dark, Feng Runtian and the others had already climbed to the top of another mountain. They found a place they thought was more suitable to stop, lit a fire, cooked, and rested. The three of them had a satisfying meal.

, and drank all the remaining wine.

They were so excited and tired in the past two days that the three of them slept soundly this night.

But sleeping in the mountains is not easy. You have to avoid the cool mountain wind at night, protect yourself from the damp earth atmosphere under your body, beware of mosquito bites, and always be aware of the incoming wild beasts. Therefore, most people who sleep in the mountains must sleep in the dark.

Not practical unless you are extremely tired.

Get up early and light up the fire next to you, not only to get rid of the cold and dampness of the night, to move around, but also to prepare water for cooking and replenish your physical strength.

The three of them slept soundly that night, drank a lot of porridge in the morning, and everyone's face was dripping with sweat.

"We can only eat for three days at most, and it will take at least six or seven days to get out of the mountains. From today on, we can only eat one meal a day, and we have to hurry up. We all have to hold on. There are wild vegetables passing by.

Let's collect more wild fruits and cook them together to make porridge. We can get through the current difficulties. At this time, people in the mountains are still hungry.

The most critical thing right now is safety. The further you go out, the greater the danger. We have brought so much goods, but once we encounter a bad person, all our efforts will be in vain, and our lives may be in danger. We must always be on guard!"

"Yes, there are beards, bandits, officers and soldiers, and orphans everywhere. There are also many bad guys who specialize in eating the food of the mountain rangers. They specialize in swindling and robbing mountain goods from all walks of life. You must strengthen your defenses. If you can't get the duck, give it to them.

It flew away."

"If we really encounter a bad guy, Chaoshan and I will fight with all our strength. Ertian, just run away alone. You must not let the stick fall into the hands of the bad guy!"

The three of them discussed each other one by one, discussing how to deal with accidents. But no matter how they discussed or discussed, it was difficult to deal with bad people. The best way was to avoid them and pray not to meet bad people.

After eating and putting out the fire, the three of them hurried down the mountain together, taking care of each other. They had to hurry up and try to get out of the mountain in the least amount of time and reach the old boss's house, where everything would be safe.

Fortunately, with the blessing of the mountain god, Feng Runtian and the three of them spent six days and were close to leaving the mountain. However, the food had been eaten up. They swallowed everything left in their stomachs this day, but they were still very hungry.

Hungry and very tired.

"Now stop and rest. We are not far away from leaving the mountain. The marks we left show that we can leave the mountain in less than half a day. This is the most dangerous time. We can't light a fire for cooking. Besides, there is no way.

After we have eaten, we will lie quietly for a while and drink more water. As soon as it gets dark, we will go out of the mountain. We will probably be able to leave the mountain after midnight.

Let's grit our teeth and hold on. Early tomorrow morning, we'll find a village to get some food, and then we can continue on our way to the boss's home."

After Feng Runtian finished explaining, he first found a suitable place to lie down and rest. Boss Feng and Han Chaoshan did not speak, and followed Feng Runtian to lie down and quietly recharge their batteries.

As soon as it got dark, the three of them got up and filled up the water. Han Chaoshan was in front, Feng Runtian was in the middle, and Boss Feng was behind. They walked hurriedly out of the mountain. The journey went smoothly, and it was about five o'clock in the morning.

By that time, the three people had walked out of the mountains and gradually entered the hilly areas. By daybreak, the three of them had entered the plains and were thirty or forty miles away from the mountains.

"There is a village ahead. Let's go into the village and find some food. I drank a lot of water along the way. My stomach is growling and I really can't walk anymore."

Brother Feng made the first suggestion. He looked more tired than Chaoshan, could not lift his feet, and was staggering when he walked. Feng Runtian looked back at his embarrassed brother and encouraged him to hold on for a while. When he arrived at the small village in front

Stop and look for something to eat.

After bypassing the village in front of him and walking about five miles, he came to a relatively remote small village. Feng Runtian found a well-marked small hillock and stopped, wrapping all the wild ginseng in oilcloth.

, dug a hole and put it in, and locked it again with ginseng locks to prevent them from escaping, leaving only a few small hairy ginseng plants on their bodies to hide them from people.

After doing all this, Feng Runtian led his brother and Chaoshan towards the small village.

Both his brother and Chaoshan said that Feng Runtian was too cautious and nothing would happen to this small village. But Feng Runtian said that it was better to be prepared just in case, and repeatedly told the two of them to be strict with their mouths, and they would rather die than reveal that there was something wrong with them.

As for wild ginseng, I just said that I didn't dig anything, so it was a waste of time.

When they came to a farmer's house that looked pretty good from the outside, they caught up with the man working in the yard, so the three of them walked up and greeted the man respectfully.

"Brother, hello to the whole family! We came back from digging for ginseng in the mountains. We didn't pick up anything. We were so hungry that we couldn't walk. We are still seventy or eighty miles away from home. We wanted to beg for food from my brother.

Brother, please take pity on us. We only have a few small coins, but not enough for a full meal. Please have mercy on us, give us a meal and leave. We will repay your kindness when you have the opportunity in the future!"

A middle-aged man who was working in the yard was shocked when he saw three strangers in ragged clothes suddenly walking into the yard. He thought they were bad guys. But after a closer look, he saw that they were indeed three mountain runners, so he gave up his suspicions.

"Aren't you just asking for food? Don't be polite. No one has ever found a time to be in trouble. It just so happens that our family hasn't eaten yet, so I asked my wife to add some more rice. After a while, we'll eat. Then we go inside and sit down to have a rest.

cigarette."

When the middle-aged man saw that they were three people gathering ginseng in the mountains, he showed his enthusiastic and cheerful character and let Feng Runtian and the others into the house. Feng Runtian insisted that they wait in the yard for a while, because the clothes were too dirty.

It doesn't smell good either, so I won't bother entering the house.

When the middle-aged man saw this, he no longer pressed him, so he went into the room alone to make an explanation. He also took out a cigarette basket and asked the three of them to roll cigarettes and smoke.

Feng Runtian and the others found three small wooden pillars and sat together under the window of the middle-aged man's house to smoke and relieve their fatigue. The middle-aged man also stopped what he was doing and came over to chat with Feng Runtian and the others while waiting for dinner.

It still took a long time before the meal was cooked. Breakfast was eaten in the yard. Because Feng Runtian and the others insisted not to go into the house and cause trouble, the host had no choice but to put a table in the yard and greet Feng Runtian and the others.

People eat.

Just when Feng Runtian and the other three were concentrating on eating, five masked men suddenly burst into the yard, holding guns and knives in their hands. They shouted and surrounded the three of Feng Runtian. It was too late to run away.
