Chapter 539

These mountain roads are more and more difficult to walk. In addition, only those tree felling villagers have left behind the previous roads, but if they continue to go up the mountain, it will not be the road taken by those tree felling villagers.

"Dr. Xiao, you see, this should be the place where Yang Laowu cut trees." Now Xiao Chen and they have walked for more than an hour. It is two or three hundred meters on the mountain. They see many left branches. However, these branches have withered and should have been cut down for a long time.

If it is here, there is nothing suspicious.

"Yang Xiaoge, Yang Laowu, they usually cut trees here and bring dry food up the mountain for a few days. Where do they live?" Xiao Chen went to see it and found that it was really precious trees such as camphor trees.

Moreover, looking at the left tree head, it probably takes three or four people to hold it. Looking at the tree ring, it should have been for hundreds of years.

If such old trees were outside, they would have been cut down long ago.

Xiao Chen looked around and several old trees were cut down. Moreover, the remaining branches, in fact, if they can be taken down, they can also make very good furniture.

However, all these are wasted here, but none of the villagers in Yangjiazhai dare to come here and take them back.

"They? I suspect sleeping directly in the tree. If it's rainy, you may find a cave to rest. "

Without thunder, it's safer to sleep directly in a tree. If it's underground, there are many poisonous snakes and even other poisonous insects. However, it's good if it's in a tree.

Of course, if it's a rainy day, it won't work under the tree. On the one hand, even if you can hide from the rain, it may lead to thunder.

There is no doubt that it is the most dangerous to hide under a tree on a rainy day.

Therefore, brother Yang said that those people might be hiding in the cave.

Xiao Chen and Dr. Liu saw that young brother Yang kept paying homage to the cut off tree heads. They didn't know what the Miao dialect was.

Anyway, according to Xiao Chen and Dr. Liu, the Miao people here should believe in these gods.

"They are all tree gods. Unexpectedly, they were cut down by Yang Laowu. This is the punishment of the tree god!" Young brother Yang looked at Xiao Chen and Dr. Liu and said to them.

"Do you believe it?" Xiao Chen asked.

"I believe my grandfather's generation taught us." Yang Xiaoge said.

However, Dr. Liu, who accepts modern scientific and cultural knowledge, where do you believe these things? Of course, they know that places of ethnic minorities believe in these nature.

"Dr. Xiao, don't you believe it?"

"Maybe!" Xiao Chen said.

That's not what he said, but many things happened and were destined. He guessed that Yang Laowu's death must have something to do with cutting trees.

There is nothing beautiful here. Moreover, if Yang Laowu and his family were not greedy and just cut down a few old trees here, there should be nothing wrong. Unexpectedly, their greed hurt them.

When Dr. Liu and his colleagues were drinking water and having a rest, Xiao Chen just didn't bring water, while brother Yang brought two buffalo horns. These two horns are very large and can hold a lot of water at one time. Moreover, when the buffalo horn is not filled with water, it can make a loud sound, which can scare the animals outside, and even, if something happens, It can also attract the attention of others.

"Dr. Xiao, would you like some water?" Brother Yang thought that senior officials like Xiao Chen must be from big cities and have superior status. They must be different from ordinary villagers.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen was no worse than the young Miao man when he walked.

In fact, in the past, when Xiao Chen was in Xiaojia village, he often went to the back mountain himself or with his senior sister.

Where is the back mountain?

Shennongjia, which is now very famous in China, looks much more terrible than here.

Therefore, Xiao Chen's walking now really seems very relaxed. On the contrary, Dr. Liu, these weak scholars, used to stay in the laboratory for research, and rarely go out to do research. Now they climb mountains and rivers, or these undeveloped mountain roads, which make them very tired.

Xiao Chen continues to walk up the mountain with brother Yang. Dr. Liu is so tired that they gasp. I don't know if Xiao Chen can really find the source of the spread of the plague?

"Dr. Xiao, the more you go up the mountain, the more you should be careful. There are poisonous snakes and poisons on the mountain. Luo tietou has them all."

What is Luo tietou?

It's a very poisonous viper. Its appearance looks like the outer walls of those stones. If you don't pay attention to it, you must be bitten. If you don't hit the anti snake venom serum in time, you will die.

Xiao Chen looked very normal when he heard this. However, when Dr. Liu's five people heard it, their faces became obviously different.

Although they guessed that there might be poisonous snakes outside, they didn't expect that there was Luo tietou here.

Xiao Chen cut several branches and gave them to Dr. Liu. Each of them took one and walked behind Xiao Chen and brother Yang.

After all, those ahead must be the most dangerous now, and those behind may not be so dangerous.

"Brother Yang, you said that Yang Laowu and his old people usually cut down these old trees. These trunks are so heavy. How can they be brought down the mountain?"

"I heard that they first opened a path, then several people tied the trunk, and then took it all the way down the mountain. It shouldn't be very difficult, but it's more difficult to go down the mountain. Several people carried it together."

If so, everyone made 10000 or 20000. Xiao Chen thought it impossible.

After all, there are even poisonous snakes like Luo tietou. In addition, it is still so difficult to move down the trunks of these old trees. Of course, more than that.

These are valuable camphor trees. They are very profitable. How can they be sold to those bosses in the south so cheaply?

Xiao Chen continued to follow young brother Yang and they went up the mountain. In fact, many trees above were not damaged. Therefore, young brother Yang soon recognized that they were cut down there.

Now he took Xiao Chen and Dr. Liu to the place where the old trees were cut down for the second time. Xiao Chen saw that they were all camphor trees, and all the leaves and branches withered. Obviously, these had been more than half a year at least.

Here, there are branches left everywhere, and then branches with a radius of 20 or 30 cm long. All stay here. Xiao Chen thinks it's too wasteful.

Young brother Yang still seemed very cautious and afraid, and prayed to the old trees with a pious face and didn't know what he was muttering.

Xiao Chen shook his head and didn't say anything. After looking carefully, he felt that it would take at least a week for these trees to be cut down, or if several people worked together.

"They don't all use chainsaws, do they?"

"They all use this, which is provided by the boss of the south. In addition, they also bring axes." Seeing the cut branches, Xiao Chen could see that he did use an axe in addition to an electric saw.
