Chapter 154: Entering the Mountain

Dunzi and I reached out to get the eggs, but we didn't notice that no one from Lei, Wang Laoshu, and Sima, had reached out to get the eggs, but were staring at the containers that were placed on the table to hold the eggs.

Their actions made me feel a lot of utensils filled with eggs on the table. I didn’t know it. I was shocked when I saw it. The utensils were lotus-shaped, with blue tiles all over the plate. There were several cracks full of historical sense. The first feeling I felt was that this plate had a history of at least hundreds of years.

"Brother Gao, your plate is really beautiful. I bought it there. I asked me to bring some for my friends when I go back." Wang Laofu said as he looked at the plate with eggs.

"Oh! Look at what this big brother said, what good plate is? Isn't this a joke about me? This broken plate was picked up when I was digging medicine in the mountains. After I took it home, I saw that it was almost cracked. I was about to throw it away, but my old woman refused to let it go, saying that it was used to serve a steamed bun or something. Every woman was really unable to say it, so she would make a joke from the bosses." Old man Gao said with a look of embarrassment.

He had no idea that at first glance, I could at least pay a thousand or eight hundred yuan. This is how people in rural areas are. Many people have treasures at home but they don’t know them. There are many such things. The Qin Dynasty’s golden sword is used to mow grass for pigs, and the Han Dynasty’s imperial bronze pen is used to feed chickens. There are many news newspapers like this. Why do people say that in recent years, more and more people have gone to the countryside to collect local goods? As long as they have the strength to have the power, remote rural areas are Feng Shui treasure land for treasure hunting and collecting goods.

"Brother Gao, just talk nonsense. How can there be plates in this mountain? You don't want to tell me that I bought it." Wang Laofu tried to take out the words of Old Man Gao.

"Oh! My big brother, look at what you said, just like this broken plate for you. There is really no place to buy this plate. I really picked it up from the mountains. I have been using such broken plates in this mountain, and I have been using many broken plates in this mountain." Old Man Gao replied.

Hearing Old Man Gao say this, everyone present was energetic. Maybe this Old Man Gao will become our guide. "Brother Gao! What do you mean by saying this? Could it be that there is a Liulichang in the mountains?" Wang Laoshu asked in a daze.

"Is that there's no, but there's a ruin in the mountain. There are many broken things in the ruins, and the broken plate was picked up from the ruins." Old Man Gao replied.

"That's strange? There will be tiles and bricks in this mountain? Brother Gao, what about you, brother Meng." Wang Laofu stood up and handed Old Man Gao a cigarette.

"See what you said, why are you lying to you? Otherwise, my legs and feet are not smooth now. I will take you to see. The ruins are in the deep mountains and will be left in the first ten years before me. You can bring you there in one day." Old Man Gao said a little angrily when he heard Wang Laoshu say this.

"I believe, I believe! We are just walking around the mountains and exercising our muscles and bones. Anyway, it's okay. Let's go and see if the bricks and tiles will grow in the mountains." Wang Laomao said, squeezing at us.

I quickly responded, "Yes, yes! Broken bricks and tiles are spread out in the mountains. This is a strange thing. Let's go back and don't worry about press releases."

"Oh...! It turns out that the bosses are reporters. Unfortunately, the old man is not good at his legs. Why don't I take you to see it? You will write the newspaper back and write me, Old Man Gao." Old Man Gao opened his chatter with great enthusiasm after hearing what I said. "I told you that it is not easy to find this ruin. You will cross the mountain behind the village, then pass the Moon Lake, and then bypass the Virgin Peak to get to Laojun Temple. There is a stream in front of Laojun Temple. You can see the ruins by walking along the stream north."

"Ye! Didn't you just say that you can reach it in one day? I'll say that this mountain will take only one day after you turn over the village. You are from Virgo Peak and Laojun Temple. Is this day the day done?" Dunzi asked at Old Man Gao.

"Hehe, exaggerated! Exaggerated! Old Man Gao, mine is a bit exaggerated. I will definitely be there for two days when I was young." Old Man Gao patted his chest and said.

In my opinion, it would take at least five or six days to leave when he heard the place names he mentioned. Old Man Gao talked to me until late at night. In the end, Master Lei gave him a few hundred yuan to make our ears completely clear. It seems that Old Man Gao had been talking to us for so long, and he was just waiting for the accommodation and food costs we gave him.

The next day, just dawn, Master Lei woke us up. Before Old Man Gao got up, we set out on the way to the mountain behind the village. When Dunzi heard that the plate was worth some money, he took away the plate for serving eggs on the table.

The weather in the mountains was indeed a bit cold in the morning. Dunzi and I both added a thin coat, but Mr. Sima, who was over 60 years old, still had short clothes and single pants, without any fear of the cold. When he climbed up the mountain, his legs and feet were much more neat than Dunzi and me.

Until noon, we were still on the hillside of this mountain. It seemed that I could not cross the mountain in one day. Everyone seemed a little tired, sitting on the ground drinking water and eating compressed biscuits.

"Then Old Man Gao must be bragging to death. He said that he could be a pure nonsense all day." Dunzi said breathlessly while drinking water.

"Okay, if you have poor physical fitness, don't be careless." After saying that, I looked at Master Lei and asked, "Master Lei, do you think what that old man Gao said is reliable?"

Mr. Lei thought for a while and lit a cigarette, "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, I know it."

Master Lei’s answer made me a little confused. Could it be that Master Lei already knew the route? But how did he know? My mind started to run at high speed.

"Little kid, don't think about it. You can't understand. Don't worry about how Master Lei knows. Just follow him. If you encounter any dangerous things, just hide behind us." Wang Laoshu said sarcastically to me, looking arrogant and arrogant.

I thought it doesn't matter. You pretend to be your big-tailed wolf. Anyway, I'm not missing me if you scold me. Besides, he is willing to be a big leaf, so why don't I be an ant to cool off under the leaves?

After a brief rest, the five of us had to conquer the mountain in front of us. Before leaving, Mr. Lei looked up at the sky for a long time. I was curious to imitate him, looking up at the sky with his neck. The blue sky, clean white clouds, and the sky in the mountains was really a beautiful picture.
