Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 253
Lv Lu led Zhuifeng with one hand and the green dog with the other. When he arrived outside the fence in Jiang Zewei's yard, he saw Jiang Zewei, Wang Demin and the other two elders sitting and chatting together in the yard.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes coming from outside, the four of them looked back one after another.

"Xiao Lu is here!" Wang Demin greeted first.

Jiang Zewei was going to open the gate of the courtyard, but Wang Demin held him down: "I have trouble walking, I will open it!"

Wang Demin took a few steps and opened the courtyard door. Lu Lu tied Zhuifeng and Qinggou to a tree outside the courtyard, then came in with a bag, and greeted with a smile: "Uncle Wang, Uncle Jiang, these two are ..."

"One is Zhang Minghai and the other is Long Yuewang. You can call them uncles. They are my old buddies for many years." Jiang Zewei introduced with a smile.

These two Lu Lu really don't know each other, they haven't seen each other in their previous life, they should have passed away before he entered Xiushantun.However, when he heard Jiang Zewei say that the two were his old buddies for many years, Lu Lu realized that the two had a very close relationship with Jiang Zewei.

It is very likely that Jiang Zewei was a member of the gang when he was the head of the gang.

He politely called out to the two of them: "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Long!"

The two also smiled at Lu Lu with a smile, and their cloudy eyes soon fell on the bag that Lu Lu was carrying.

"I've heard for a long time that a powerful herdsman has come to the village. He has bad legs and feet. He often stays at home and has never seen anyone. He is good and energetic." Long Yuewang looked Lu Lv up and down, and said kindly.

Zhang Minghai is also looking at Lu Lu: "I heard from my brother that you went to hunt a lynx. Seeing you like this, did you catch it?"

Lu Lu nodded: "I found it when I went out in the morning, and I called back...Uncle Jiang, should I put this meat in the house for you?"

"It's so fast, it's really amazing... When we joined the gang, if such a good player had joined, Brother Tianxing would not have been trapped in the mountains."

Jiang Zewei sighed and said, he glanced at Lu Lu: "Just send this meat to the house and put it on the kang table."

Lu Lu picked up the lynx meat, went into Jiang Zewei's house, looked around, and found that the house looked dilapidated on the outside, but inside there were a lot of old-looking furniture, all of which were well made and made of good materials. Fine stuff.

It is not difficult to imagine that Jiang Zewei should have made a lot of money in forming the Gang in the early years, otherwise he would not be able to buy such good furniture.

However, Lu Lu just glanced casually, put the relic together with the bag on the kang table, and walked out.

The uncles all smoke, and the pipes and pots in their mouths can be called long guns and short cannons.

Especially Long Yaowu, with a big cigarette pot in his hand is very domineering. The thick and long tobacco stem is at least 1.2 meters, and it is covered with bumps.

With such a long pipe, I am afraid that after loading the cigarettes, I have to rely on others to help light the fire.

Obviously, there are not many teeth left, so I don't know how to hold such a heavy cigarette.

In the courtyard, a few stones set up a stove with an iron pot on it. At this time, the soup in the pot was boiling, and the firewood burned a lot of charcoal slag. It seemed that it had been cooking for a long time.

There is a stove in the house, but a pot stove is set up in the yard...

Lu Lu felt a little weird.

He went to the side of the pot and poked it with his chopsticks, and found that the meat was not quite moving, so he went to a few old men and listened to their chatter.

"... At that time, there were not many old foreign guns, and it was the first time for us to travel so far to Changbai Mountain, and we had never encountered such a situation, so don't let it go!"

Zhang Minghai let out a long sigh, and reached out to pat Jiang Zewei: "When I went to Changbai Mountain to release the mountain, I made it very clear. The dense forests in the mountains block out the sun all day, tigers and wolves haunt, sticks and mallets are hard to find, and there are many dangers. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. .Even the patriarchs who participated in the gang were folded in that mountain.

Since he wanted to make a lot of money, he should know how powerful he was. If he didn't come out alive, he could only say that Tianxing didn't have that fate. "

The ancestor of the Canbang is from Shandong, an old man, surnamed Sun Mingliang, who has rich experience in ginseng gathering and is very loyal. He has brought out many skilled ginseng pickers.

Legend has it that this old man became a god after his death, and often came out to manifest as an old man with a white beard.It is also regarded as the patron saint of the Canbang, and the mountain god that the Senbang must worship when they enter the mountains, in order to pray for protection and guidance in the mountains and a good harvest.

Lu Lu naturally knew about this legend.

Zhang Minghai directly said that the patriarch was folded in Changbai Mountain, so he was somewhat unconcerned.

However, after hearing them talk about the search for ginseng, Lu Lu immediately became interested: "Masters, what are you talking about?" He asked knowingly.

"I'm talking about the fact that you, Uncle Jiang, established a ginseng gang when you were young. The last time you went to Changbai Mountain to find ginseng. At that time, there was a man named Li Tianxing in your Uncle Jiang's ginseng gang. He couldn't come out after entering the mountain. You, Uncle Zhang and Uncle Long is also a member of their gang, and they get along very well, one is sworn brother Jinlan, and the other one disappeared when Xiaotian invaded the Northeast, there are five of them in total."

Wang Demin gave Lu Lu a brief remark.

This was the first time Lu Lu heard about it. When he met Jiang Zewei in his previous life, he was the only one left in the gang.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are gangs.

In this wilderness, there is a profession called Fangshanren, who travel through the mountains and dense forests to find precious wild ginseng.

This group of people is called a team.It is said that the members are proficient in identifying herbs and are good at survival in the wilderness.

It feels mysterious.

In fact, Lu Lu met many ginseng seekers in his previous life in the mountains. In his understanding, the ginseng gangs are more of a group of peasant brothers who go to the mountains to find ginseng as a sideline during the slack season.

The ones who can really be called to join the gang should be those who have professional quality.They understand ginseng identification, preservation methods, collection methods, and even planting methods, and to a certain extent, some of the more powerful teams affect the price of ginseng.

However, in any case, in the eyes of the world, the Canbang is still classified as a mountain villager by most people.

To put it bluntly, those who broke through the Guandong in the early years were all victims of disasters and entered the Great Wilderness. Although the land in the Great Wilderness is fertile, this land is not yours either!
Many people are desperate to find a living.As a result, two major schools of choice emerged among these victims.

Some people dig mines for some courageous businessmen, mainly gold mines, in exchange for meager income.

Bold to death, timid to starved to death, these gold diggers will try their best to steal gold grains from the mining area. Although it will be miserable if they are caught, what if they get away with it.

Another way is to join the ginseng gang and become a ginseng collector.

This industry is not slower than the gold rush, and even has a tendency to surpass the gold rush industry.

More and more people flooded into the Great Wilderness, and the number of people became more and more complicated, so it became a rivers and lakes.

The ginseng collectors gradually huddled together to keep warm, and gradually formed different groups, large and small, and finally developed into gangs. The core figures in the gang controlled many ginseng collectors.

Times have changed, although these days, there are not many rumors about the Can Gang, and most of them are a small team that invites a few people into the mountains to look after each other to find wild ginseng, but in fact, the Can Gang has always been there, but they just changed their identities That's all.

The gang formed by Jiang Zewei is just such a small team. However, they have some more professional inheritance, and they are not like ordinary small teams, just going to the mountain to hit the big luck.

With precious inheritance, it is much better than ordinary people.

Although wild ginseng has been mined for so many years in Dahuangli, it has become extremely rare, but as long as it is found, it will cost a lot of money.

Wild ginseng is not only found in Changbai Mountain, but also in Xiaoxing'an Mountains, Lao Maozi's Far East.

It is a great nourishing thing, not to mention now, even in the next few decades, when there are cultivation everywhere, it will be a lot of money to find a real wild ginseng with good quality.

That's what makes these experiences so valuable.

Hearing Lu Lu's question about this, Jiang Zewei sighed: "I'm still to blame for going my own way, let's not talk about Ma Dashan, I don't have the ability to deal with wild things..."

Mada Mountain, getting confused in the mountains or getting lost in the mountains due to some external factors.

With deep remorse, Mr. Jiang talked about their experience of searching for ginseng in the depths of Changbai Mountain.

They lived in Xing'an Mountains, and traveled a long distance to Changbai Mountain, which they would visit once a year after the formation of the Cang Gang.

Thinking that the ginseng on the outer edge of the mountain was rarely excavated, relying on experience, they went straight to the deep mountain.

Along the way, Li Tianxing looked at the tree and marked the way.

After walking for two days, they chose a place in the mountains where they had a good chance of picking ginseng based on experience, set up a shack and settled down, and decided to start a carpet-like search the next day.

The next day, Jiang Zewei and other five people set off after paying homage to the patriarch.

Everyone was separated by Zhang Xu, and the five searched all the way with a rope stick.It really only took half a day to hear Long Yuewang shouting.

The cable stick, in the eyes of others, is just an ordinary wooden stick, but in the hands of ginseng pickers, it is a real treasure.

Ginseng pickers travel through the deep mountains and old forests, and they must walk on rugged mountain roads. The ginseng picker can be said to be the third leg of the ginseng picker.

It can make mountaineering easier. At the same time, the cable stick can also be used to dig grass to effectively open up roads to find mountain ginseng, scare away poisonous insects and beasts in the trough, and prevent yourself from being injured. Weapons of self-defense.

Shout out to the mountain, that is the discovery of mountain ginseng.

Overjoyed one by one, they gathered around one after another.

Jiang Zewei took a look, the sixth-grade leaf is a big deal.

Several people were ecstatic, surrounded by this big mallet, extremely excited.

No need to discuss, Jiang Zewei was about to thrust the stick into the ground hard, ready to dig.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I took out the Kuidang rope twisted with red wool and tied with large copper coins at both ends, the rope stick inserted on the side suddenly fell down.

In the eyes of those who participated in the gang, the downfall of the cable stick was a manifestation of the anger of the mountain god. If they continued to forcibly collect ginseng, they would be severely punished.

For a moment, several people sighed and fell into a dilemma.

The final result of the discussion was that Jiang Zewei made a decision-excavation, and everyone agreed immediately when they were just young.

I was risking my life to make money, so I don't believe in this evil.

Unexpectedly, after digging out the wild ginseng, several people saw that it was getting late and were about to go back to the shack, but suddenly found that they couldn't find the shack.

Mada Mountain!

Like headless chickens, a few people searched everywhere.

After looking for it, they suddenly heard a roar in the distance, and several people were startled.

The voice was scary, and when they heard it, everyone knew it was Xiong Xiazi. Moreover, the voice seemed to be approaching quickly, and they panicked in their hearts.

With the cable stick in his hand and the fast ax used in the mining industry, it is obviously impossible to deal with Xiong Xiazi.

When he entered the mountain, he also brought an old foreign cannon, which was carried by Li Tianxing.

Li Tianxing was so loyal, he immediately told the others to evacuate, and he stayed behind. Because he had experience in hunting bears, they all chose to listen to him, and they heard gunshots not far away.

However, after waiting for a long time, Li Tianxing did not come back.

Their hearts suddenly turned cold, and they all had a bad premonition.

But that's a brother, you can't ignore it.
