As we all know, it's very difficult and dangerous for the jade miners in Kunlun mountain to go to the mountain to pick jade or to search for jade veins. Therefore, they have very high requirements for their physical quality and survival ability in the wild, and they don't want anyone to go in.
Don't you see that the climbers of Mount Everest are full of luggage! But even so, there are still many climbers who have been fully prepared to stay on Mount Everest forever because of emergencies.
In terms of geographical complexity, Mount Kunlun is far more dangerous than Mount Everest. After all, Mount Everest has received more attention because of its climbers. However, only jade collectors know the dangers in Mount Kunlun.
In the face of Yu Tianwang's kind reminder, Lin Xi not only didn't give birth to the heart of retreat, but also aroused more interest and strengthened his own ideas. You should know that his character is stubborn. What he thinks is that ten cows can't be pulled back. The more dangerous and challenging things are, the more interested he is.
"Go, be sure to. It's not easy to come here once. It's a pity if you don't see it!"
Hearing Lin Xi's words, Zhou zhe wanted to remind him, but seeing Lin Xi's firm appearance, he immediately gave up the idea of reminding him, because with his understanding of Lin Xi, there is no possibility to persuade Lin Xi to give up.
Fortunately, he also knew that Lin Xi had a good sense of propriety. Since he decided to go to the mountain, he must have made the corresponding plan, at least not to delay going to the cloud.
But then again, the reason why Lin Xi decided to go to the mountain to pick jade was just to gain a long insight. His university major was history department. He had heard many legends about Kunlun Mountain for a long time, and he was full of curiosity about its mysterious veil. This time he had a chance to go in and see jade, so he naturally didn't want to miss it.
I don't know if Lin Xi forgot that the Kunlun Mountains recorded by the ancients were not the present Kunlun Mountains, but the Qilian Mountains in Gansu Province.
······
Kunlun Mountains (Kunlun Mountains), also known as kunlunxu, wanzu mountain, kunlunqiu or Yushan, have a very prominent position in China's cultural history, and even the ancients called Kunlun Mountain "the ancestor of dragon vein".
In ancient mythology, there is an immortal named "Queen Mother of the west" in Kunlun mountain. She has a head and a leopard body, and is served by two green birds. She is the right God of Taoism. She is in charge of cultivating immortals with the East King.
There are also many scholars who have written famous poems on Kunlun Mountain, such as Li Bai's "if you don't meet at the head of qunyushan mountain, you will meet at Yaotai under the moon", Chairman Mao's "born in the sky, mang Kunlun", and many legends and stories, such as Nuwa's stone smelting and sky mending, Jingwei reclamation, peach blossom gathering of Queen Mother of the west, white lady's stealing fairy grass and Chang'e's flying to the moon Among them, the most famous is the legend of death valley.
Of course, it is well known that Kunlun Mountain is rich in beautiful jade. Since the Han Dynasty, it has been the main source of jade in the Central Plains. That's why "jade comes out of Kungang" is mentioned in thousand character essay.
The next morning, before dawn, Lin Xi and Zhou zhe came to the old house of yutianwang. But as soon as he stepped into the old house, he was startled by the scene in the yard.
Because when he came, the yard of the old house was already full of people. At a glance, there was not even a place to stay, at least hundreds of people.
It's strange. Even though there are hundreds of people standing in the yard, no one is noisy in the yard. On the contrary, it's quiet. If a person who doesn't know how to do things comes here, he may be shocked and think that something strange has happened.
At that time, in the middle of the courtyard of the old house, there was a long square table with three sacrifices (cattle, sheep, pigs) and melons and fruits on it. When Lin Xi saw this scene, he immediately knew that it was to offer sacrifices to Kunlun Mountain God, so that the mountain god could protect the people entering the mountain.
The sacrificial ceremony is very old and solemn. The whole process is full of mysterious charm, which makes Lin Xi have the illusion that he seems to return to the ancient times. As the host of the ceremony, Yu Tianwang is covered with a mysterious veil and recites melodious tunes with Lin Xi's words.
At the end of the sacrificial tune, the Jade King took a bowl of wine, dipped a drop in the bowl with his finger, and flicked it away in the air. It was concluded by repeating this three times, and then drank all the wine in the bowl.
Seeing that yutianwang dried the wine in the bowl, other people in the yard of the old house also followed him, and all of them killed the wine in advance. Lin Xi was no exception.
Naturally, the wine in the bowl will not be fruit wine, let alone wine, but the spirit of burning the throat and scraping the intestines. Lin Xi didn't understand that the wine was in the bowl, and he killed all the wine in one mouthful.
The next moment, Lin Xi felt that he swallowed a flame into his stomach. The flame burned in his throat and burst in his stomach. It was stirring like a knife. He almost didn't bring it up in a breath. Sheng Sheng choked out several drops of bitter tears, and his face turned red.
I have to say that the wine is really strong!
After the end of the ancient sacrificial ceremony, the crowd in the courtyard of the old house immediately scattered, looking for their own teams and companions into the mountain, and even the family members of jade collectors to see them off, which was warm and lively.Suddenly, Lin Xi's ear rang out the voice of Jade King: "little sir, come, I'll introduce you."
Looking at the source of his voice, Lin Xi saw that yutianwang had come to him. Beside yutianwang, he was accompanied by several strong young people. They were still very young, at most in their thirties, but they were all full of wind and frost. It was obvious that they were all veteran jade collectors.
But then again, how could the Jade King introduce Lin Xi's ordinary jade mining team? They must be the elites among the elites.
When he came to Lin Xi's side, Yu Tianwang pointed to the young people and said, "Mr. young, these are your companions who have rich experience in jade mining. They are all able to cope with danger. The oldest one is your leader. You can call him brother Fei, and you can get to know the others yourself."
After hearing yutianwang's words, Lin Xi looked at the young people and found that there were not many people in this team. In addition, he himself was only six people. The oldest one, Feige, the leader of the team, was Uygur like yutianwang. His face covered with wind and frost made him look much older than his actual age.
