020 The Seven Devils of Bayuan (Part 2)
Starting from the village, various directions lead to different places. Going west along the deep ravine is a winding and rugged mountain road, dug by the ancestors of Lu Village for generations, leading to the wild central valley where the Qingshui clan was originally located. This is a road down the mountain.
The long and narrow ravine also disappeared on the edge of the central valley. Before there was a bridge on the cliff, it was also the only road leading to Lu Village.
To the south of Lu Village is a deep ravine cliff. Walk over the cliff for more than three miles and cross a ridge to reach the coast of Huahai. Over there is Huahai Village and a place where Huwa often goes to play. There is no road to the east, only endless groups of people.
Mountains, but tribesmen in the wilderness can always find wild trails in the mountains. There are many birds and beasts inhabiting that vast area, and it has been a hunting ground for generations of Lucun people.
To the north, that is, behind the village, the gentle slope at the foot of the mountain has now been opened up into bean fields surrounded by hemp forests, and there are also patches of elm trees and green oak trees. The terrain becomes steeper and steeper as you go up, and villagers often enter this deep mountain.
They were all here to collect kudzu, wild fruits and some medicinal materials they knew. The mountains seemed to rise and fall endlessly, and the terrain got higher and higher. The very high places were full of exposed rocks, with almost no grass growing. Even in the summer, it was very cold.
There is often snow on the ground.
People in Lucun have never climbed that mountain because there is no need. The height is extremely steep and there is no road. Moreover, there is nothing to pick or prey to get. Panhu and Huwa walked up the mountain behind the village and walked along the village.
The stream outside climbed up, passed through the dense forest on the edge of the hemp forest, and entered the vast primitive jungle.
It was early autumn, and the eyes were full of green colors. There were shrubs and thin bamboos everywhere in the forest. Thick moss grew on the tree roots and stones. There were many fallen trees in the stream, and some were sunk in the water. They may have experienced thousands of years of damage.
Hundreds of years ago. When you walk in, the scenery on all four sides is similar. There are several people hugging thick trees. In addition to the sound of running water nearby, there are also various strange sounds coming from the distance occasionally. If you can't distinguish the sunlight, walking like this
It's easy to get lost in the primitive jungle.
Where there is no road, the path traveled by people is the road. Panhu seems to be very familiar with the direction. He is running on all fours in the jungle, and Huba has to run fast to keep up. In fact, running in this kind of jungle
It is very dangerous. Slippery moss can cause people to lose their center of gravity. It is also easy to hurt people if they step on sharp stones or broken bamboo roots. If you accidentally fall and fall to the bottom of a rock crevice or cliff, you will often be injured.
There will be life danger.
Panhu didn't seem to realize that ordinary children would never be able to keep up with his speed and still be able to safely walk through this kind of jungle. In its eyes, Huwa was much more powerful than him, so he would definitely be able to keep up without any harm.
Fortunately, Huwa has been cultivating in the first level for many years and has gone through many transformations. Now he is a second level monk. His body is agile and powerful, and his perception is sharp and clear, so he can still catch up with Panhu.
Walking higher and deeper along the stream, it is already a place where tribal residents will not go deep alone, and it is also a deep mountain area that few people from Lu Village reach. It has always been the road up the mountain, and Panhu almost ran at a fast speed.
It didn't stop, and it ran from shortly after sunrise in the morning until the afternoon. This dog is really not an easy dog. If it were not a tiger boy following behind, someone else might have collapsed from exhaustion!
If it were a tribal hunting team, they would never climb the mountain almost in a straight line like they did, and pass through so many dangerous and remote places. The same journey would probably require several consecutive days of trekking.
In the afternoon, Panhu arrived at a water pool. The pool was about three feet in diameter, but the deepest point was only about three feet. The water was crystal clear, and the trees growing around were so swaying and beautiful, and the spread canopy shrouded the pool.
, reflected in the clear water.
It turns out that the stream that flows down the mountain originates from here. There is a clear stream overflowing from the spring among the gravel in the pool. There are also trickles from the surrounding heights that flow into the pool. It is melted snow water from the distant mountains.
Huwa praised: "Wow, it's so beautiful. What a good place to take a bath!...Panhu, let's take a rest. Where are you going to take me?"
Panhu must have been tired from running, so he came to the water pool and drank a few sips of water. Then he stretched out a front paw and pointed to the north, indicating that he wanted to go further. Then he sat by the water pool to rest and put his two hands together.
He only put his hind paws in the pool to soak. Huwa thought that the pool and the surrounding scenery were beautiful. Sitting here was very comfortable, and he even felt refreshed.
While he was resting, he accidentally discovered that someone else had been here. There were some kudzu vines scattered in the woods beside the pond. The traces were old and new, and many of them had been left a long time ago. It was obvious that they were not accumulated naturally or washed away by mountains and rivers.
What came here were things that had been manually picked and processed. Among them, the slender kudzu and the kudzu powder in the rhizomes had been removed. Then he found a few twined kudzu on the green bamboo next to it.
It is definitely not naturally wound, with traces of artificial weaving.
There are no other tribes nearby, only the Lu Village far down the mountain. Who would come to such a secluded place? Could it be Granny Shui? It is not difficult for Granny Shui to walk through the wild forest and reach this place. This may be
It was a place where she often bathed and practiced weaving water cloth. The environment was really nice and quiet.
Huwa guessed it right. This was indeed the place where Grandma Shui often bathed, and she had also practiced here. The ultimate method of controlling objects, manipulating countless kudzu to weave cloth, was practiced here decades ago.
.Ruoshui probably didn’t expect that Panhu would take Huwa through here. Normally, it would be impossible for any tribesman to come here.
There were no fish in the pool, but there were rock frogs in the nearby stream. Huwa hadn't eaten yet today, so of course he was hungry after running such a long way, so he caught a few rock frogs and brought them back, skinned them, washed them, and drilled them with stones.
Mu Bin used dry moss to light a fire, skewered it on a branch, roasted it and ate a meal. Panhu, the greedy dog, also ate with him.
Only then did Huwa suddenly realize that there was a wound on Panhu's body. The wound was more than half a foot long from the back to the waist. It looked like it had been scratched or cut by something sharp. It was an obvious external injury, but the wound should be
It is not deep and does not cause too serious injuries or life-threatening injuries. The tribesmen also often suffer from various external injuries. Huwa has been used to it since he was a child and is already very experienced.
Although injuries like this are not fatal on the surface, they need to be bandaged and treated in time, otherwise excessive blood loss and infection caused by fire will lead to death. When Panhu left the village three days ago, there were no injuries on his body, so he was injured.
What happened in the past few days when I was supposed to be out. But when the tiger baby was discovered just now, its wound had healed, but the dog hair near the wound had not yet grown back.
This discovery surprised Huwa. Nowadays, there are very few ferocious beasts in this wild area that can hurt Panhu. Moreover, according to this kind of injury, even if it is dealt with in time, Panhu has a special physique and recovers very quickly.
It takes more than ten days to heal. Now, at most three days have passed, how come its wound has already healed? And it is still so alive and kicking, and it doesn’t look like it has just been injured at all!
Huwa asked more, but unfortunately Panhu couldn't speak. He gestured with his two paws and howled for a long time, and jumped around to demonstrate. Huwa barely understood what he meant by guessing. Panhu
On the way to that place, I was suddenly attacked by a dangerous villain.
Although the guy injured Panhu in a sneak attack, Panhu showed his magical power and immediately counterattacked and won, killing him on the spot. Panhu also knew how to deal with wounds, and his recovery ability is amazing now. After arriving at the destination, he had an unexpected encounter.
The wound healed quickly. He rushed back to the village in a hurry just to tell Huwa about his latest adventure and wanted to take him there to have a look.
The meaning of the dog made Huwa half understand, and at the same time he was extremely curious. He wanted to know what magical discovery Panhu had made? After eating, one person and one dog continued on their way in a hurry. Granny Shui reached the final destination in the deep mountains.
The far place is the water pool. If Huwa goes further, he will be exploring a new area that the Lu tribe has never entered before.
The mountains are getting higher and higher, the temperature is getting colder, and there are fewer and fewer weeds and shrubs in the forest. Gradually, only tall firs and pine trees are scattered. Panhu ran faster than in the morning at first, but later it also stopped.
It gradually slowed down, because the air here has become thinner and thinner. If you were someone who lives on the plains all year round, you might feel like you can't even breathe when you first come here, let alone running at such a fast speed.
Huwa lives in the mountains all year round, and his physique is different from ordinary people, so he can still keep up. The higher they go, the sparser the forest becomes, and the vegetation gradually becomes low. When they come out of a mountain forest covered with gravel, they see what’s in front of them.
It is a steep rock wall with jagged rocks. Looking up, you can see a blue-white exposed rock peak, and there is clearly snow in some of the light-shielding ravines.
It is early autumn, but it snows all year round on the top of the peak, and the snow does not melt quickly when it falls in the shade. The majestic peak seems to lie in front of you, but you still haven’t reached it after walking for a long time. The sun has already set.
The sky gradually darkened. Huwa stood still and shouted from behind: "Panhu, how far do we have to go? We can't run around anymore. It's getting dark, so we have to find a place to spend the night quickly!"
Residents of various tribes in the mountains must return to their villages as soon as it gets dark and must not run around outside. This is the habit and life experience Huwa has developed since he was a child. Although he has never traveled far away, he often hears about hunting.
The tribesmen talked about their experiences in the mountains. They had to choose a safe campsite and prepare to spend the night before the sun went down. They could not wait until dark to find a place.
It was also Huwa's first time to spend the night outside the village. He felt very novel and a little excited in his heart, but he still did not forget to remind Panhu. Panhu stood up, shook his head, stretched out his paw and pointed forward, still forcefully
