80s Taoism

[Please recommend a ticket! 】

The sun finally turned over the mountains and forests, and sprinkled the last ray of light on the top of the Meishan Mountains, coating the Meishan Mountains with a golden outline. The red clouds in the sky are also golden. The sunset is infinitely good, but it is almost dusk. Beautiful things are always so fleeting.

Zhang Jiaohua and the others didn't have the heart to appreciate the beauty of nature, the sun went down, and it was going to be dark soon. Now the few of them are already in the shadow of the mountains, and the light is a bit dim.

"You should bring a flashlight when you come here. If you go further, you will find the old forest. The number of wild animals in this mountain has decreased a lot over the years. The big blue wolf has disappeared for many years. But no one can tell what kind of wild animals are in the old forest." Liu Guocai looked worriedly at the darkening sky.

Liu Yunjun was careless and didn't take it seriously at all, "Brother Guocai, don't worry. I've been here a lot in this old forest. There's nothing to worry about. I haven't seen the big blue wolf for many years. Now the biggest beast in the old forest is probably only the wild boar. As long as we don't provoke them, they won't take the initiative to attack us."

"What do you know? At most, you are wandering around the old forest. In the depths of the old forest, you never return." There was a trace of fear in Liu Guocai's eyes, and the conversation between the two seemed to evoke a memory in him.

Liu Zongtai stopped and said, "Master Zhang, further on is the old forest. It's getting dark, and it's not safe to go to the old forest. Let's forget it."

Liu Zongtai was very disappointed, he felt that the cow could not be found.

"Wait." Zhang Jiaohua did not immediately accept Liu Zongtai's opinion this time. Although Liu Zongtai is the host, Zhang Jiaohua felt that he could not smash his own brand. Of course, the most important thing is that he has already heard from the cry of the Diamond Mountain Leopard that the Diamond Mountain Leopard has discovered something.

"Master Zhang, I am very grateful to you for helping me find cattle so hard. But I can't put you in any danger. You'd better go back." Liu Zongtai looked at Lao Linzi regretfully.

"I'm not talking about going to the old forest. My leopard may have found it. It's not far ahead. I haven't reached the old forest. I won't risk my life to find a cow." Zhang Jiaohua shook his head.

"Found it?" Liu Zongtai asked in surprise.

"I should have found something. But your cattle may be in a bad condition. It's hard to say whether they can plow the land after getting them back." Zhang Jiaohua thought about the mountain leopard and walked on the ground.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Zhang Jiaohua took Liu Zongtai and others to find the location of the Diamond Mountain Leopard.

The diamond mountain leopard was standing above a water pool and barking non-stop. Seeing Zhang Jiaohua, he immediately went up to greet him, and kept rubbing against Zhang Jiaohua's body as if asking for credit. Zhang Jiaohua stroked the Zuanshan Leopard's head with his small hand a few times, "Leopard, you've done a good job this time."

"It's there! The cow is there!" Liu Yunjun pointed to the edge of the pool and shouted in surprise.

Several people followed Liu Yunjun's finger and found the buffalo that had been missing for a day or two in the pool. However, the condition of the buffalo was not very good. It was lying on the edge of the pool in a shallow place, motionless.

Although he found the cow, Liu Zongtai had a bitter expression on his face. It is not an easy task to get the cow back.

This pool is called Falling Star Pool. It is said that it is a huge deep pit smashed by a meteorite. All the rainwater collected from the surrounding peaks gathers here and becomes a pool of water. During the rainy season, the water in the pool overflows and becomes a small lake in the valley. During the dry season, the water level drops by at most ten meters. Now is the dry season and the water level is relatively low. Although it didn't reach the lowest point, it fell about ten meters. The pool is surrounded by vertical stone walls. When people fall, they can only rely on climbing vines on the rock wall to get up. Now a cow has fallen, and there is no way to get it up. Even if it is brought up, judging from the current situation of the cattle, I am afraid that they can only eat meat.

So even though the cow was found, it was a complete disappointment to Liu Zongtai. Because the cattle are slaughtered and sold for meat, the money they get can buy at most one calf. It is not a matter of time for a calf to grow into a cow. This buffalo is in the prime of life and has been domesticated, the best time to use it. The loss is not small. It is not an easy task to tame a cow well.

Liu Zongtai's family is in good condition, and he can buy a full-grown cow back. However, it is not so easy to buy a suitable one in the cattle and horse trading market.

"What should we do?" Liu Guocai squatted down, took out a pack of Xiaomei brand cigarettes from his pocket, took out three from it, and handed one to Liu Zongtai and Liu Yunjun each.

"Hey, why did this bastard come here to seek death?" Liu Yunjun took the cigarette and asked a little puzzled.

Liu Guocai gave Liu Yunjun a blank look, this bastard really couldn't open any pot and carry any pot. Didn't you see that Liu Zongtai was about to cry at this moment?

"Master Xiao Zhang, would you like one?" Liu Guocai waved the cigarette to Zhang Jiaohua.

"I don't want it." Zhang Jiaohua said angrily. He is a good boy, can you pass me a cigarette?

Liu Guocai chuckled, "Master Zhang, do you have any good ways to get the cow up?"

"It depends on whether the cow's injury is serious. If it's not serious, you can heal the cow's injury first, and the water pump pours the water from the river over there, so the cow can be brought up?" Zhang Jiaohua pointed to the Meijiang River not far away. Zhang Jiaohua was inspired by the crow drinking water in the elementary school textbook.

Liu Zongtai's eyes lit up, the pool is not very big, it is really feasible to use a pump to fill it with water. He poked his head out and looked into the pool. The water pool is surrounded by vines, and the dense kudzu vines are still very strong.

"I'll go down and have a look." Liu Zongtai snuffed out a cigarette in his hand and stood up.

"It's about ten meters high. Falling down is not fun. The light is not very good now. Why don't you come back tomorrow?" Liu Guocai persuaded.

"I don't know what kind of injury this beast has suffered. Now that it is still alive, maybe it can be saved. When it comes tomorrow, I'm afraid it will only be able to eat meat." Liu Zongtai still decided to take a risk.

"I'll go down with you." Zhang Jiaohua looked at the pool, which was more than ten meters high. For Zhang Jiaohua, he still felt a little dizzy.

"Forget it. You are on top. If you are a child, if you fall and hurt yourself, I will feel sorry for you." Liu Zongtai said again and again.

"You are definitely not as good as me in climbing trees." Zhang Jiaohua dislikes being looked down upon the most.

"It's about ten meters high here. It's not like you usually climb trees. If you fall down, there will be rocks under it. It will kill you." Liu Guocai said quickly.
