Although the first wild ginseng found was less than ten years old, it at least means that there is no problem in choosing this route. Uncle Bangzi put the packed wild ginseng into the basket, then looked at the time and said: "Li

Sir, let's go forward for another hour. There is a temporary foothold for ginseng pickers ahead. You can take shelter there in case of strong winds and heavy rains. Because there are not many people walking this road, there may not be a foothold there for a long time.

It’s been repaired.”

"It's okay, even if you build a new one temporarily, it won't be a problem."

Uncle Bangzi looked at those big men, smiled and nodded: "Then let's walk there in one go."

A group of people set out again, first passing through the broadleaf forest, and then heading forward along the side of the valley. The Changbai Mountains cover a very large area, and without an experienced hunter to lead them, it would be easy to get lost for the first time.

News often appears on the Internet about a certain traveler who entered the virgin forest without a trace, and how many people later went into the mountain for search and rescue. With Uncle Bangzi leading the way, at least he had confidence and would not waste time and energy.

On the way forward, Li Mo was also constantly searching for wild ginseng, but unfortunately there were no new discoveries. He didn't know how far deep into the mountains it was, but it was already almost 12 noon. Finally, he saw one in front of everyone.

There are six tree houses made of wood on a very wide flat hilltop.

Just as Uncle Bangzi said, no one has probably repaired it for a long time, and there are three wooden houses that are showing signs of falling down.

"Mr. Li, we will rest here. Let's eat something and drink some water. Even though it is August, you will feel cool in those wooden houses."

"Brown Bear, let someone see if those wooden houses need to be reinforced first."

"yes."

Brown Bear immediately arranged for people to repair the wooden house.

"Mr. Li, come over here and take a look." Uncle Bangzi walked to the other side of the mountain, pointed to a low mountain in the distance and said, "That side is called the King of Hell Peak, and at the foot of the mountain is a surrounding valley, known as

Hell Valley, many people have died there."

Li Mo looked in the direction he pointed. Halfway down the mountain peak, which was not steep, was surrounded by thick fog. Probably due to the influence of the terrain, the surrounding wind seemed unable to blow in, causing the gray fog visible to the naked eye to slow down.

Floating slowly around the mountain peak, condensing and not dispersing.

"Is that miasma?"

"Yes, so that peak is a restricted area in the Changbai Mountains. Mr. Li, don't you think it's strange? It's like someone has set up a big formation in that place. Why can't the miasma be dispersed?"

Li Mo showed deep thought, and then said after a while: "The miasma is mostly caused by the poisonous gases emitted by the decaying corpses of animals and plants. After many people inhale too much, the real cause of death is the countless viruses carried in the miasma. That mountain peak is more

It is short and surrounded by high peaks. From the perspective of the entire terrain, it forms a valley as a whole. The surrounding mountain winds are blocked, so there is no communication between that side and the surrounding environment. Over time, the poisonous gas accumulates, forming a terrible miasma."

"Mr. Li is still knowledgeable. What you said makes sense. But to form such a large miasma, there must be too many rotting corpses of animals and plants around the mountain. It would not be possible for all the birds and animals in the Changbai Mountains to be destroyed.

Is that considered a graveyard?"

Uncle Bangzi said to himself. After hearing this, Li Mo's heart moved slightly. Something seemed to flash in his mind, but he couldn't catch it for a moment.

"Boss, have something to eat, a self-heating pot and some beef jerky."

The brown bear came over and shouted, "This time I went into the mountains to bring some easy-to-operate food and it didn't take long."

"Uncle Bangzi, let's go over and eat together."

After lunch, everyone sat in the wooden house to rest. It was very hot outside, but it was really cool in the wooden house. Li Mo leaned against the tree wall and closed his eyes to rest, still thinking about the miasma in his mind for more than 20 years.

Former Sui Yunxin's family went into the mountains to hunt for treasure, and finally collapsed in a valley. The fatal reason was that they inhaled too much miasma.

Uncle Bangzi also said just now that that peak is a restricted area in the entire Changbai Mountains. Could it be that that valley was the place where Sui Yunxin's family died?

If it is the same place, it also means that some of the gold treasures in Golden Lily's robbery plan are likely to be hidden nearby. No one can enter Yamawang Peak and Hell Valley, and those who enter will die. It is extremely dangerous there, but for hidden treasures

It is definitely the best place to hide treasures.

The more Li Mo thought about it, the more he felt that his guess made sense, but he still needed to find a way to get in and see what was going on inside.

"Uncle Bangzi, how long does it take to walk from here to that Hell Valley?"

"I broke my legs when I ran to Wangshan Mountain. It would take about two hours to walk there. But Mr. Li, you can't get close there. Even before you reach the valley there, there is already miasma in the surrounding air. If you breathe in too much, it will be harmful to your body.

It’s not good either, so you’d better not even think about taking a closer look.”

"Uncle Bangzi, I know it well. I also brought a lot of gas masks with me when I went into the mountains this time. I heard an old Chinese medicine doctor in Kyoto say that good and evil cannot exist. If wild ginseng appears in that kind of mountain, the quality of it will be very high."

The quality of wild ginseng is definitely better than that collected in other places. And if you think about it, no one has been to Yamawang Peak for many years. If you really find wild ginseng on the mountain, the growth period will be quite long. No matter what, I want to try it too

Let’s go in and investigate.”

When Uncle Bangzi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, he patted his thigh and said, "Why have I never thought about this? What the old Chinese doctor said is so right. There is no coexistence between good and evil. If there really is a wild old ginseng, then

The quality is definitely better than the old ginseng outside. Mr. Li, I don’t know if you wear many gas masks, but I will go in with you to have a look."

"It's still very dangerous inside, but we can't let you take risks. Even if we go in to explore, I'll be the front-line one."

Uncle Bangzi didn't insist, but his eyes were very hot. If wild ginseng really comes out of Yamawang Mountain, then it would be considered normal if it has a growth period of more than a hundred years.

It was around three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was blocked by the dense branches and leaves, and the mountain breeze blew through, making it much cooler than the outside world.

"Mr. Li, are you really determined to go in?" Uncle Bangzi was still a little worried. A lot of people were killed there.

"Uncle Bangzi, you don't have to worry about this. We're not all going in. If there is any danger, you can call for help in time."

This matter has been decided, Li Mo will definitely enter.

A group of people began to go deeper into the mountains. At about five o'clock, everyone was close to the restricted area. The sun was still hanging high in the sky. Li Mo and Brown Bear discussed it, selected five people, and then put on special ultra-thin waterproof raincoats.

, put on the gas mask and started walking towards Hell Valley.

The rest of the people stood and observed from a distance. As soon as a cry for help came from the intercom, they would immediately take action.

"Boss, this valley is really evil. You can't feel the wind all around. No wonder the miasma here is condensed and never disperses."

"Well, if a Feng Shui master comes to take a look, this place will be a deserted place with no life at all."

As Li Mo went deeper into the valley, he used his special pupils to examine the surrounding environment. The ground was covered with decayed branches and leaves, and your feet would sink a little if you stepped on them.

"Huh?" Li Mo frowned deeper and deeper. How could there be so many skeletons under the ground? He almost stepped on those skeletons as he walked along. Judging from the degree of decay of those skeletons, it probably took a hundred years.

For a long time, this was very unusual.

He was not walking fast, and with a single glance of his strange eyes, he could clearly see the situation underground within a hundred meters radius. How many people would have to die to pave a valley path.

"Brown bear, dig down here and have a look."

The brown bear brought an engineering shovel and excavated quickly. It only dug about thirty centimeters deep, and several gray and black bones were found in the soil.

"Boss, what do you think?"

Li Mo already knew what was under the ground, but he still squatted down and picked up a piece to look at it and said in a deep voice: "This is a finger bone. You each find a place to dig and have a look."

"Yes, boss."

The brown bears each chose a place to dig up, and soon discovered decayed human bones in different parts.

"Boss, why are there human bones in the ground?"

Li Mo remained silent and continued walking forward. He walked about fifty meters before whispering: "dig some more."

The result was chilling. Six people chose six locations and dug up human remains and bones again.

"Boss, judging from the degree of decay of these bones, it is estimated that it took decades." The brown bear turned around and looked, his voice was a little hoarse, "Are all the bones buried in the ground?"

"Let's keep moving forward."

Li Mo had a vague judgment in his mind. This time they walked forward for nearly two hundred meters, and then dug six more places, and found wreckage in four places.

"Keep walking."

The more Brown Bear and others dug, the more frightened they became. They almost walked half a circle around the mountain. They dug hundreds of places, and at least 90% of them dug out decayed remains from the ground. No matter how slow they reacted, they thought that something must have happened here.

A horrific massacre, with countless corpses paving a valley path around the mountain peak.

"Boss, what the hell is this place? Why are there so many corpses buried here?"

Li Mo did not answer this question. He did not climb the mountain, but continued walking in the valley. After everyone had walked around for a long time, Li Mo made a preliminary judgment in his mind.

"Don't reveal the things here for now, so as not to cause panic."

"Yes, boss."

The people who stayed outside finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Li Mo and others walking out of the valley.

"Uncle Bangzi, I said it's okay."

"It's okay, just go to the creek over there and wash yourself first."

There was a mountain stream not far away with a large amount of water. After a few people cleaned it, Li Mo asked: "Uncle Bangzi, is this mountain stream connected to the previous Changbai Mountain river?"

"Go forward about fifty meters, and this mountain stream merges into the Changbai Mountain river. Mr. Li, did you find anything inside?"

"It's not that fast. Let's go around the valley first. The miasma in the valley is very thick. Fortunately, this is a forbidden area and there are no ferocious beasts. Uncle Bangzi, let's go back to the temporary resting point first. Tomorrow morning

Come back soon to have a look."

"That's okay, since things are not urgent for a while. I have laid some traps near the temporary residence. If we are lucky, we can taste game at night."

"I haven't eaten yet, but my mouth is drooling. Go back and take a look."

By the time they returned to their temporary residence, the sky was already dark, and the sky was dotted with stars. They were in the mountains, and it was still unbearably hot during the day. But as soon as the sun disappeared, the mountain wind blew on them, and the temperature plummeted.

"There's something big, it's a wild boar."

Uncle Bangzi stood in front of a trap and shouted happily. Everyone immediately gathered around. The trap should have existed for a long time. After Uncle Bangzi simply arranged it, a greedy wild boar entered the trap and was stabbed by the barbs carved from sharp branches.
