Taoism moves mountains

Chapter 197 Zhelong Mountain

The group of people walked hard on the mountain road. The terrain that the mountain road passed through was undulating, going up and down, making it very difficult to walk.

Zhelong Mountain is even more majestic. Looking at Zhelong Mountain from this highland with an average altitude of about 2,300 meters, it is more than 1,000 meters visually.

More than just towering!
  The mountainside is surrounded by clouds and mist, making it even more fairy-like.

From time to time, one or two birds chirp in the quiet mountains, or the sound of gurgling water from a stream.

The group walked almost 20 kilometers of mountain roads and got closer and closer to Zhelong Mountain.

Here there are high mountains and deep valleys, sparsely populated areas, dense forests, and mountain trails that are not very mature after being opened by hunters.

Jiang Yang and Hua Ling'er's disguises were quite good, and they used hoes to dig for herbs from time to time, without arousing You Bao's suspicion.

And the situation in the mountain forest is indeed as You Bao said, poisonous insects and beasts are hunting to store food for hibernation.

When Jiang Yang and Hua Ling'er were digging herbs, they saw poisonous insects no less than three times. If the blood aura in their bodies had not frightened the poisonous insects, they would have been attacked.

Even a python appeared. Jiang Yang and the others saw it when they were walking through the cliff. The python was climbing on the opposite mountain wall.

At that time, Red Gushule Liang wanted to shoot it with a flying knife, but was stopped by the whistle!
  Min Gushao has always been kind-hearted and has the same attitude towards animals and people. It has always been that I will not offend others unless they offend me.

Gradually, we passed a mountain wall and then passed a jungle...

"The high mountain in front is Zhelong Mountain. If you want to enter the mountain, you must pass through a large bamboo forest in front. This bamboo forest is very dangerous. There are many venomous snakes. It can be said to be a snake nest." After You Bao finished speaking, he started from his own He took out a small bag of something from the small cloth bag. After untying it, he took out some yellow powder and patted it on himself.

Jiang Yang knew it was realgar powder at a glance.

Snakes are particularly sensitive to the smell of realgar. Generally, people often use realgar to repel snakes.

Beware of poisonous snakes, how could Jiang Yang and the others not be prepared?

Although Jiang Yang and Hua Ling'er may not be needed, Min Gu Xiao, Chen Yu Guan, and Russula Liang are still needed.

Hua Ling'er took out a small porcelain jar from her backpack. After opening it, a pungent smell of wine came out.

"Realgar wine!" You Bao also smelled the smell and exclaimed in surprise.

He was also planning to give the realgar powder to Jiang Yang and the others for their use. After all, they were his guests, and he had brought them to the mountains, so he had to take care of them. However, he did not expect that Jiang Yang and the others had already prepared them.

Hua Ling'er sprinkled the realgar wine on Min Gushao and others. Now, everyone was exuding the pungent realgar smell.

After everyone walked into the bamboo forest, looking around, the milky white fog was like flowing slurry, surging in the bamboo forest.

It tumbles and twists among the slender and tall bamboo branches, like a fairy in white clothes and skirt, dancing gracefully.

Jiang Yang knew that it was just dew vapor and not a poisonous miasma, so he did not take out a gas mask.

When we reach the depths of the bamboo forest, we look up and see the towering bamboo trees, which seem to show people their majestic momentum and vigorous upward power.

The sun slowly rises at this time, and the fog gradually dissipates, and the lush bamboo leaves have deep and light green, dark green, light green, dark green, tender green, all imaginable and unexpected greens.

When the soft sunlight shines through the dense or sparse bamboo branches and leaves, it falls on the soft and moist mud and rocks.

Among the withered yellow leaves, you can see chubby bamboo shoots hanging out of the ground. They are cute and naive, with round dewdrops on their tips, flashing with colorful lights in the morning light.

After the fog cleared, the quiet bamboo forest appeared full of vitality.

"These bamboo shoots should be delicious." Chen Yuguan said aloud.

"Yes, sometimes I come here to dig bamboo shoots and fry them with chicken nuggets. They are tender and delicious." You Bao took over with a smile.

When he said this, Jiang Yang and others couldn't help but salivate in their mouths. The chicken cooked with bamboo shoots was really a delicious dish.

During the chat, they also saw many venomous snakes, but they were all driven away by the pungent smell of realgar! In addition, we also saw a lot of spider webs, and the colorful and poisonous spiders looked very scary.

Having even seen such a giant black-faced turtle, Jiang Yang and the others would not be easily frightened.

The bamboo forest was almost a mile long. In less than ten minutes, Jiang Yang and others passed through the bamboo forest and came to a lake.

The lake is crystal clear, with a few shrimps and no fish.

And Zhelong Mountain is right in front of you!

"I heard from the old man in the past that this lake is connected to the waterway on the other side of Zhelong Mountain. There is a cave at the foot of the mountain that leads directly to the valley of Zhelong Mountain. It only takes more than half an hour to get through." You Bao pointed to the lake and said.

"I heard?" Jiang Yang looked at You Bao doubtfully.

"Because I have never walked through that cave. The old man in the village told me that people have entered the cave before, but never came out. They all said that there were man-eating devils inside." You Bao said in a low voice, thinking To scare Jiang Yang and the others.

"Is this the only way?" Min Gushao asked.

"There is a mountain road over there, but it has only been opened halfway up the mountain. It is inaccessible. Because there are too many vines and thorns, it is very labor-intensive to open the road. No one in the nearby village wants to go to the other side of the mountain, so the mountain road is only open Halfway up the mountain." You Bao pointed in the other direction and said.

Min Gushao, Chen Yuguan, and Jiang Yang looked at each other and understood what You Bao said.

In this way, if you want to get to the other side of Zhelong Mountain, you can only go through the cave.

Jiang Yang looked around and found that it was really a dense forest with many mountains, making it difficult to travel.

It would be nice if there was a helicopter. He could fly there directly, but where would he get a helicopter at this time? Even if there is a helicopter for him, he may not be able to fly it.

"Okay, just go here. Let's go back." You Bao led Jiang Yang and the others. They could only take them here at most, and had no intention of going deep into Zhelong Mountain.

【go back? How is it possible to go back after arriving here? 】 Chen Yugan thought quickly in his mind, thinking about how to get rid of You Bao.

"We want to stay a little longer." Jiang Yang said at this time, while giving Chen Yuguan a look.

You Bao looked at Jiang Yang doubtfully, but Jiang Yang had already pulled Hua Ling'er away.

"This..." You Bao looked at Chen Yuguan, but Chen Yuguan just extended his hand to him and followed Jiang Yang away.

Min Gushao's eyes turned, he had some guesses in his mind, and he started chatting with You Bao.

Jiang Yang waited for Chen Yuguan to catch up, and then walked a few dozen meters away together. When he saw that You Bao didn't follow, he said, "Let's give it a try."

Chen Yugan understood and knew that he wanted to use the art of listening to the wind and thunder to explore the terrain.

He took out his pistol and handed it to Hua Ling'er. After Jiang Yang and Chen Yuguan were ready, Hua Ling'er fired a shot towards Zhelong Mountain.

"boom!"

A gunshot! Echoing in the mountains and forests!
  Jiang Yang and Chen Yuguan closed their eyes and listened...

You Bao heard the gunfire and said to Min Gushao in surprise: "Something happened!"

He didn't know that Chen Yuguan and the others had guns before, and they should have hidden them. Now that he heard the gunfire, something must have happened before the guns were exposed.

Min Gushao quickly stopped You Bao, who was about to pass by, and explained to him calmly: "It's okay, they are just testing guns."

You Bao became suspicious: [Testing the gun? What gun to try? 】

But he was pulled by the whistle and could not move toward Jiang Yang. He could only look over there with doubt.
