Chapter 55: Entering the mountain to prepare four kinds of ginseng

Chen Yong and the other two followed the map index and arrived at the Changbai Mountains this day. This season is a good time to dig ginseng into the mountains. The ginseng begins to be the best to identify it. When the three of them marked the map and came to the nearest town, they were ready to buy it, so they drove into the mountains to explore the way, and found the location marked on the map of Hu Yidao and his wife.

Chen Yong knew that the location marked in the map was likely to be buried with the treasure of Li Zicheng, the "King of Breaking"! I don't know if there will be any danger when the three of them marched this time. I don't know if the proportion of the map is correct, so before entering the mountain, I must prepare more dry food items.

As soon as he entered Liaodong, Cheng Lingsu changed the three of them into very local clothes, just to make it easier to move later. The three of them first found an inn and asked for two guest rooms to stay. The adoptive father Ping Asi was still old because of a long journey and did not use his muscles as his bones, so he finally became tired and sick.

The waiter saw the three of them and said passionately: "Three guests, there are many ginseng recruiters in this town. I think this man is in poor health, so he should buy some good ginseng to take it. This will be of great benefit to his health."

Cheng Lingsu's heart moved and said, "I have heard that Changbai Mountain is rich in ginseng, but I didn't expect that there are also good ginseng in this town? I wonder which medicine shop is suitable for buying it? We are going to buy ginseng for our father."

The waiter smiled and said, "The three guests are all foreigners? It seems that we know very little about us. Although our town is not big, every year in this season, many ginseng harvesters who enter Changbai Mountain will gather. The wild ginseng they pick in the mountains is the best. Buying the ginseng in their hands is much cheaper than buying it in the pharmacy, and you can also meet the best products."

Cheng Lingsu's eyes lit up, and he followed the waiter's words and asked: "This waiter, dare you ask if we need to buy more wild ginseng, where is the right place to buy? My father is in poor health. If he treats him, he will be able to nourish his health. His health will definitely recover faster."

The waiter said, "You are here. My Yuelai Inn is the largest inn in this town. Every year, many tourists come to live. According to time, there should be a gathering here tomorrow. These tourists will enter the mountain again, recruiting people and waiting for their friends to gather.

Of course, these ginseng pickers will have more or less good treasures, which are wild ginseng picked in May this year. They will keep some of them because the price is not suitable. However, after the gathering tomorrow, they will have to go into the mountains again. Under normal circumstances, it is easier to negotiate the price when they come to them to buy ginseng tomorrow.

Their jargon is to carry ginseng into the mountains. Before entering the mountains again, they will exchange their inventory for silver. The three guests can stay here for one night with peace of mind. It will not be too late to walk after the rally tomorrow. Most people don’t know the roads in Changbai Mountain, so they can go into the mountains with ginseng pickers to take care of them.”

Chen Yong said, "Then I would like to thank my second brother for reminding me that we will live here. We will wait for the things we use to buy in the mountains. We will buy them all first. I hope that tomorrow we will have a suitable team to buy them for my father's illness. We will pay as much silver as possible, and it is close to treating the old man."

The waiter agreed and before the gathering began tomorrow, he would inform the three of them. The waiter also indicated Chen Yong where to buy things. After the three of them had enough food, they would send Ping A Si back to their room to rest. Chen Yong and Cheng Lingsu went to buy supplies for entering the mountain. The time for entering the mountain is uncertain, so this purchase is mainly about food, and the more it should be better.

The two of them arrived at the waiter's position. It turned out that there was a market here. The market was very large, with shops selling various foods and tools for ginseng. In the market, there were all kinds of ginseng, deer antler, tiger bone wine and other great things.

Chen Yong and the others were wandering around the market. Cheng Lingsu just looked at the medicinal materials on the stall, but there was still nothing to see. It was obvious that there were no real good things in it. There were many people carrying bows and swords in the market, and many people also bought food.

Chen Yong saw three people in front of him, who were very strange. One was only four feet tall, but his head was as big as a Dou. He looked at his face at least forty, but his figure was like a child; the other was eight feet tall, as thin as a stalker, but he followed closely behind the middle-aged man with a big head as big as a Dou.

The two of them were greeting a strong man. The man was burly and covered with tendons. He looked like a trainer. The man was carrying a bent bow on his back and a sword was slapped around his waist. When he saw the appearance of the sword, Chen Yong knew that it was not an ordinary person. He looked no less than the "Lengyue sword" he buried in front of Hu Yidao's grave!

When Chen Yong saw the three of them entering a food store in front, he grabbed two girls and turned around. Cheng Lingsu had also noticed these three people, and this image could not be avoided by outsiders. Seeing that her elder brother was interested in following, she entered the store together.

The three of them were buying dry food. From their conversation, Cheng Lingsu heard that they would team up with others tomorrow to go to Changbai Mountain to carry ginseng. It turned out that the eight-foot-tall lean stalk was the child of the man with a big head. The strong man called the father and son Sun Danaodao and Qujiang's nephew.

Sun Da’s head was very smart, and Sun Qujiang was obviously a little demented. Sun Da’s head called the strong man Brother Feihu, the eight-foot-tall boy, Sun Qujiang called him Uncle Huang, Chen Yong and the other two also bought a lot of beef jerky and cheese in this shop, and bought a few bags of horse milk wine. When checking out, they saw that the accounts of the three of them were all knotted by the strong man Huang Feihu.

Chen Yong and the others bought some millet, pickles and cooking utensils in the market. When everything was ready, the carriage was almost filled with food, and then they went back to their house. When they left the market, they saw Huang Feihu, Sun Daming and his father and son were greeting an old man. The old man was about fifty years old, and his eyes were as bright as his glitter...

After Chen Yong and his wife came back, they went directly to visit their adoptive father Ping Asi. He was occasionally infected with the wind and cold, and the climate changed too quickly. When they came to Changbai Mountain in Liaodong, they were just unacceptable to the local conditions. Ping Asi had a cough, vomiting, and diarrhea and had a meal together. Even if he was a good boy, he would lose weight quickly if he was not treated.

Cheng Lingsu rejuvenated her skills and prescribed two doses of Chinese medicine. The diarrhea finally stopped, but the cough and vomiting were not significantly relieved. Ping Asi said: "My master, my body has recovered well. This small disease is nothing. If you find a suitable team tomorrow, we will enter Changbai Mountain together!"

Cheng Lingsu said: "Dad, don't worry. Your symptoms are now completely cured by taking medicine for two days. If you are anxious to enter Changbai Mountain tomorrow, if you have any accidents on the road and get infected with other symptoms, what should you do if you ask me and my elder brother? If you don't think about yourself, you should think about us. This is not in Sifangshan, you can do whatever you want..."

Ping A Si knew that Cheng Lingsu was for his own good, so he agreed. He knew that his old habit of being anxious had been dealt with again, so he wanted to hurry into the mountain and find a place where Mr. Hu lived. But hasteness was not enough. He got sick again in Changbai Mountain, so how much trouble would it bring to the young master and his wife?

Moreover, their plan is to go into the mountains with the team that digs ginseng, so that it will be even less likely to take your own patient. This is a team, and I am used to not bothering others. If I get sick, it will cause trouble to everyone, which is not possible.

Cheng Lingsu said: "If you can find a complete fourth-grade Yeye ginseng tomorrow, your father's illness will be completely cured. As for the elder brother, it will be difficult to reach the sky if you want your internal strength to be more refined. I guess you need to find ginseng king-level ginseng to be effective."

Chen Yong said: "The ginseng king is something that is hard to come by. There are really good things at the ginseng king level. I guess we can't even see them, let alone buy them as medicine. Unless we go to the mountains to pick them together, but there are so many ginseng pickers, and how many people can make a fortune by ginseng picking?

Their professional ginseng pickers can't find such a top-quality treasure. The three of us don't know anything. Don't think of using this method to meet a ginseng king-level treasure? Second sister, I know everything you do is for me, but you can't force yourself too much?"

Cheng Lingsu said in his heart: "Brother, I hope that in my lifetime, I will make your martial arts the best in the world, so that I can leave you with peace of mind... The toxins I have penetrated into my heart, and I feel discomfort these days again.

Even my mentor can’t find a way to resolve these three highly toxicities. What can I do to crack the method to cure this toxin? I always think that I have learned a lot, and I was once proud and complacent. But now the harder I study, the more I can feel the knowledge of Master ‘Wiang Angry’, and now I really have a glimpse into the edge…”

At the second day, the waiter called Chen Yong and the other two, telling them that the ginseng pickers were coming to the party one after another. If they wanted to buy some good ginseng from the ginseng pickers, it was the time for them to go. Because usually people who came early would have something on their bodies to a higher level, and Chen Yong and the other two needed ginseng as medicine.

Chen Yong and the other two came to the lobby of Yuelai Inn together, where twenty or thirty people had gathered. Chen Yong and the other two found a table to sit down, and then began to carefully look at the people in the room. The people who came early in the living room were also staring at the three of them in a staring blankly.

Chen Yong and Cheng Lingsu looked at each other. Only Sun Danao and Sun Qujiang and his son knew each other in the inn, but the strong man Huang Feihu was not here. When they drove a car from the market together, the old man Chen Yong saw at first sight was also not in this room.

The adoptive father Ping Asi was still a little coughing and vomiting. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that he might not be able to adapt to the environment. The three of them were obviously not the clothes that the ginseng customers should wear. It was obvious that they were also fooled by the waiter to come here to buy wild ginseng.

Soon someone walked to Chen Yong's table and promoted his own ginseng. The man had a great chat with Chen Yong. After a while, he took out a ginseng bag from his arms. When he opened it, there were moss thatch, birch leaves, and some wet soil inside, and a fourth-grade ginseng plant came in the middle...

Chen Yong was full of joy. Just as he was about to negotiate the price to take it down, Cheng Lingsu came over. She looked at the ginseng plant, waved her hand, and signaled the man to leave. When the man wanted to defend Cheng Lingsu, Cheng Lingsu only said one sentence, and the man left in shame.
