However, these methods seemed to have failed this time. The two of them worked from eleven o'clock in the evening to more than two o'clock in the morning. Kun Yuanzi found a few places with good feng shui and relatively abundant spiritual energy. However, the two of them searched around these places for a long time, but they couldn't find even a single young ginseng. They didn't even see a few mushrooms or fungi, let alone a century-old wild ginseng. Thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum is the best.
The two of them used their spiritual senses to explore, but they were unable to detect any powerful spiritual objects.
After working for a long time but getting nothing. Yu Fei couldn't help but feel a little frustrated: "Damn it. This thing is too hard to find."
Kun Yuanzi smiled: "Haha. Otherwise, how could it be called a rare treasure?"
"But last time we dug out the thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, didn't we dig it out in the blink of an eye? You and Sister Bai also dug up one each." Yu Fei was confused. Logically speaking, the Thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum should not be rarer than the century-old Polygonum multiflorum. Wild ginseng and thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum are low.
"We were lucky that time. I'm afraid it won't be so easy this time. After all, these things are spiritual objects. They are often encountered but not sought." Kun Yuanzi said.
"By the way, Taoist priest. Speaking of spiritual things, I heard that wild ginseng that is more than a hundred years old has spirituality. Before digging, you must cover it with a straw hat and then tie it with a red rope. Otherwise, if the soil is disturbed, the ginseng will be destroyed. He got into the ground and escaped. Is this the case?" Yu Fei suddenly remembered this folk legend and asked Kun Yuanzi.
Kun Yuanzi nodded: "Ginseng is made by gathering the energy of the earth. The old wild ginseng that is more than a hundred years old has become a goblin. It is not easy to dig it. As far as Pindao knows, ginseng diggers have their own set of special methods. Mountain rules. When they find ginseng, they must first shout "bangchui." It is said that this shout can immobilize the ginseng essence. Then they must immediately cover it with a straw hat to make the ginseng essence at ease. Then take out the red rope and pull it out. Tie the ginseng to the branches. Only in this way can you catch the ginseng essence. Then you can dig it out slowly."
Hearing what Kun Yuanzi said, Yu Fei couldn't help but said: "Damn, it's still so complicated. But we didn't even wear a straw hat or a red rope."
Kun Yuanzi smiled: "Haha. Brother Yu, don't worry. According to Pindao, these are just ordinary people's methods of digging ginseng. For you and me, even if it has been cultivated into a spirit, we can still get it. Live it."
Yu Fei was right when he thought about it. With his and Kun Yuanzi's current cultivation level, ordinary mountain spirits may not be their opponents. What's more, the method of tying wild ginseng rhizomes with red ropes may just be a traditional method. It's just a custom. After all, it doesn't take a hundred years for a plant to become a spirit. It has to happen by chance. Thinking of this, Yu Fei suddenly felt relieved.
Not long after, Kun Yuanzi found another valley. It seemed to be the end of a ridge. It should be regarded as the location of a spiritual cave. The spiritual energy around it was also relatively strong. The two decided to go there. Have a look here too.
Yu Fei and Kun Yuanzi first used their spiritual senses to investigate, but still found nothing. They were both a little disappointed. However, they did not want to miss any opportunity, so they took a flashlight and searched carefully in the grass. stand up.
It took half an hour. The two of them searched almost the entire valley, but could not find even a single ginseng plant.
Yu Fei sighed: "I think this ginseng has been dug up. Not to mention the century-old wild ginseng. Even if it is more than ten years old, it can be sold for hundreds or eight hundred thousand today. At this price It's enough for some people to work for a lifetime. He still has to wander around the mountains every day."
Kun Yuanzi frowned and said: "Brother Yu is right. Why don't we go directly to an inaccessible place. There are few people going deep into the mountains. I think we can still find these century-old wild ginseng."
Yu Fei nodded: "That's all. Then we'll go directly to the virgin forest. Anyway, we're just wandering around here."
The two were about to leave, but suddenly there was a "rustling" sound from the trees on the side. Then, a black shadow flashed past.
"There is something." Kun Yuanzi lowered his voice and said alertly.
Yu Fei did not dare to neglect and quickly transferred his inner energy to the palm of his hand. There were many beasts in the Changbai Mountains. Not only were black bears and leopards, but also wild Siberian tigers. Although the mountain forest where they were currently located was not far from the city. How far is it? But it is not ruled out that such ferocious beasts have wandered here. It is not that I am afraid. But it is better to be cautious. Not to mention that this time I have to go to Changbai Mountain in a hurry. Yu Fei did not ask Bo Xinwen for help. He considered taking a plane. It was not very convenient. So he didn't bring the Dragon Soul Sword.
The two stood back to back. They both summoned their spiritual consciousness and carefully explored the surroundings. However, after a while, they found nothing unusual. Except for the occasional chirping of insects and birds, the surroundings were silent.
"I think it's just a frightened bird," Yu Fei said.
It seems that they are too sensitive. If it is really a ferocious beast, it cannot escape so quickly. It cannot even be detected with spiritual sense.
The tense nerves of the two relaxed. They kicked off their feet and flew into the air, flying towards the primeval forest.
The Changbai Mountains stretch for more than a thousand kilometers. However, many places have been artificially developed. The real virgin forests are mainly located in the northeastern part of the mountains at the junction of China, Russia, and North Korea.
The two stepped on the tree crowns and flew all the way to the northeast. When the sky in the east gradually turned white, they finally saw a dense dense forest. The trees in this dense forest were obviously much taller than before. And The arrangement of the trees is not as regular as what we have seen before. Between the trees, there are overgrown thorns and weeds. It seems that this should be the border area of the primeval forest.
The two fell from the air and moved forward on foot. After all, it is impossible to find century-old wild ginseng and thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in the air.
After entering the dense forest, the two of them lowered their heads and rummaged through the grass carefully. It was indeed different in this primitive forest. Not long after, Yu Fei finally found a ginseng grass that was almost exactly the same as the one in the picture. That one The green and yellow ginseng flowers are mixed among the weeds. They are very conspicuous. It is precisely because of this small flower that this ginseng grass can be discovered.
This was the first ginseng grass they found since they entered the Changbai Mountains. Both of them seemed very excited. They quickly squatted down and dug next to the ginseng grass.
It didn't take much time for the ginseng to be dug out. The main stem of the ginseng was about the thickness of an adult's thumb and grew crookedly. Since they had no experience digging ginseng, the ginseng's tendrils had already been dug out. A lot of them were broken. The skin on the roots was also broken. It looked scarred, as if it had been gnawed by mice.
