The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 1241: Treasure Sign

Leave the forest farm, ride a motorcycle, and head straight to Forest Section 62.

Entering Forest Class 62, the motorcycle continued to speed on the sled track.

This made Zhao Jun very happy. In the past, whether he drove a jeep or a big Jiefang, neither of them could fit into the small size. This big motorcycle was great. It could be driven on any road and was also durable.

From the 62nd forest range to the southwest, there is a small hill between the 62nd forest range and the 61st forest range. This is where the old hill where Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai carried ginseng was located.

Driving up the hill, Zhao Jun looked up at the mountain terrain along the way. The hill was slanting upwards, and the forest type was a mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest, and the ridges were basically covered with pine trees.

At first glance it looks like a clear forest, but in fact there are also coniferous shrubs in the forest.

"Woo..." Suddenly, a long copper whistle sounded from the front. Zhao Jun stopped his motorcycle and took out a bullet whistle from his pocket to respond.

"Nephew." Wang Qiang ran out from the nearby woods and waved to Zhao Jun, "Here, here!"

Zhao Jun hurriedly pushed his motorcycle over and asked, "Uncle, is my third uncle here?"

"Here it comes!" Wang Qiang pointed back and said, "He's chewing the pancake over there. Have you eaten it?"

"I don't have any, uncle. How can I have time to eat?" Zhao Jun said as he locked the motorcycle to the tree with an iron chain. He rode the motorcycle very fast all the way, and the big red flower on his chest had already blown away by the wind.

Not long after they entered the woods, they saw Xing San sitting on the leg of a tree, breaking a pancake and stuffing it into his mouth.

Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang did not bring weapons when they came, but the old man did. His No. 16 tree was standing next to him, stuck in the snow.

"Ah!" Seeing Zhao Jun, Xing San didn't stand up, but greeted him: "Boy is here?"

"Here you are, Third Uncle." Zhao Jun walked up to Xing San and asked, "How long have you been here?"

"I just got here a short while ago." Xing San said with a smile, "I haven't even finished chewing a pancake yet."

"Take your time to eat, brother." At this time, Wang Qiang took out half of a pancake from his shoulder bag, which was the leftover from his previous meal. Wang Qiang held the half of the pancake in his mouth, and then took out another one from his shoulder bag and handed it to Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun didn't waste any words. He took the pancake, tore it apart and stuffed it into his mouth.

At the same time, a canteen in Yong'an Forest Farm was crowded with workers and students eating big steamed buns, white rice and braised pork.

"Hey? Break the buns in the middle." Li Ruhai took a bun and demonstrated to the five girls at his table, saying, "Put the braised pork in it after that."

"You're quite a good eater." Hu Lina praised Li Ruhai with a smile. Seeing Li Ruhai taking a big bite of the steamed bun with braised pork in it, and watching the way Li Ruhai ate, the little girl thought it would taste good.

The girls at the same table all started to make hamburgers like Li Ruhai did.

There are a total of sixty students coming to the chorus today. They brought their own lunch boxes and can choose two steamed buns or three taels of rice for free, and then one spoonful each of vegetarian and meat dishes.

But in the middle of the table where Li Ruhai and the five women were sitting, there was a whole lunch box of braised pork.

This was bought by Li Ruhai, who said he wanted to treat these girls to a meal of meat.

Behind Li Ruhai, across a table from him, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu and Lin Xiangshun were sitting around it.

Lin Xiangshun glanced forward, then said to Li Dayong with a smile: "Uncle Li, your Ruhai is really popular."

"Fuck!" Li Dayong glanced at Li Ruhai and said, "Show off, one day is not enough for him to show off!"

Li Baoyu threw a piece of meat into his mouth and looked at Li Ruhai with dissatisfaction. At this moment, he suddenly remembered something and asked Lin Xiangshun: "Brother Shunzi, did you see my brother?"

"Ouch!" Lin Xiangshun was startled. He stretched his neck to look around and asked, "Where's Xiaojun?"

……

"Hey? Zhao Youcai!" Cui Yuying came over with a lunch box in the canteen kitchen and asked Zhao Youcai, "Where's your son? Why aren't you watching him?"

"How would I know?" Zhao Youcai knew that Zhao Jun was going treasure hunting, but he pretended not to know.

At this time, Han Dachun interrupted and said, "What's the matter? Are you still not done?"

Early this morning, Cui Yuying came to Zhao Youcai to complain, saying that Zhao Jun and his men beat her sister.

Zhao Youcai didn't say anything at the time, because he knew his son was capable of such a thing. Seeing Zhao Youcai's silence, Cui Yuying became even more excited, and shouted that she wanted to talk to Zhao Jun, but was stopped by Zhao Youcai.

Zhao Youcai said that he would go home and deal with Zhao Jun, but Cui Yuying didn't buy it, because adults say this to protect their own children, and who knows what he will be like when he returns home?

But in this matter, Cui Yuying really wronged Zhao Youcai, who was looking for an opportunity to teach his son a lesson. Even if he couldn't do it, he could still satisfy himself by scolding him.

"No, Sister Cui, what's wrong with you?" After seeing Han Dachun speak, Han Daming immediately said to Cui Yuying: "I'm saving face for you, do you know that?"

"What the hell, you're just giving me face?" Cui Yuying was so angry that she was not convinced. Han Daming raised his head slightly, tapped Cui Yuying with his chin, and said, "My wife told me when I got home yesterday. So what? Xiaojun insisted on bringing your sister's brother-in-law up the mountain? What does he do?"

Cui Yuying was silent after being scolded by Han Daming. Zhao Youcai glanced at Cui Yuying and thought to himself, "What a bad woman!"

After hearing what Han Daming said just now, Zhao Youcai couldn't help but feel lucky that he figured out what was going on. Otherwise, when he got home and questioned Zhao Jun, he would definitely be scolded by the mother and daughter.

"Hey, Youcai." Cui Yuying also had a dog-like face. She was quite arrogant just now. At this time, she smiled at Zhao Youcai and approached him and said, "My sister's eldest brother-in-law is moving in. Can you take him up the mountain?"

"I lead him up the mountain?" Zhao Youcai was startled, thinking, "I can't even go up the mountain by myself?"

Seeing that Zhao Youcai didn't say anything, Cui Yuying continued to persuade him: "Youcai, you have trained your son to be so outstanding, wouldn't it be great if you could take in two more apprentices?"

Zhao Youcai was quite happy to hear her words. At this time, Han Daming interrupted and said, "Aren't we all my master's disciples? Why do you want to accept disciples?"

Han Daming said this to help Zhao Youcai out of the predicament, but Zhao Youcai was slightly stunned at this time, and his little eyes suddenly lit up.

At this time, Zhao Youcai was thinking: "I want to take Baoyu and Xiaochen as my apprentices. Wouldn't our Zhao family hunting gang have someone else?"

While Zhao Youcai was daydreaming, Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang and Xing San had already finished their meal.

The big pancake is convenient to eat, it doesn't need to be heated up, and it tastes pretty good. But there is one drawback: it sticks to your teeth.

Normally they would just grab a handful of snow nearby and stuff it into their mouths, but there was a water source above them, so after Zhao Jun and his two companions had eaten their fill, they packed up and headed upstairs.

There was a stream flowing above the old acanthus. The three Zhao soldiers went to the water's edge and scooped up water to drink. After taking a few sips of the cold water, they each took two painkillers.

This thing is an absolute miracle drug in forest areas and rural areas. It works quickly after taking it. In order to find treasures today, Zhao Jun also took two tablets as an exception.

Then, Zhao Jun went straight to the old man based on his memory.

He didn't remember chopping down the red pine, but he remembered the pit where Zhao Youcai had pretended to bury ginseng.

After the Zhao army found the ditch, they walked a short distance south and looked back, noting that a large piece of bark was missing from the pine tree.

The missing piece of skin looks like a house drawn by a child, with a triangle connected to a square. This is called the master's house.

In the old mansion, there were three oblique cuts. These three cuts were already very faint, but they could still be distinguished if you looked closely.

"It's here!" Xing San exclaimed, and a gleam of light flashed in his turbid old eyes. This sign was exactly the same as what Zheng Xueyan said!

Seeing this sign, Wang Qiang was surprised and happy. He didn't expect that the news Xing San heard from others was true, and he didn't expect that he would find his eldest nephew here.

But then, Wang Qiang and Xing San looked at Zhao Jun in unison. The treasure had been found, but where was the treasure cellar?
Under the gaze of the two men, Zhao Jun asked Wang Qiang: "Uncle, do you have a knife?"

"I don't have any." Wang Qiang brought a lot of things today, but he didn't bring a knife or a gun.

"I've got it." Xing San drew his knife from his waist and handed it to Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun took the knife and used it to break the bark.

Xing San's knife was the old man's weapon for self-defense. He sharpened it every day. The blade was very sharp. With a few strokes, he changed the small house-shaped mansion into a large oval. The three slanted roads in the middle were also cut off by Zhao Jun's knife.

Then Zhao Jun carved in it the omen: "On the ninth day of the seventh month of the Dingmao year, there are three people, three seedlings, and three leaves of different grades."

Seeing this situation, Wang Qiang and Xing San knew what Zhao Jun was planning without even asking.

After carving the omen, Zhao Jun looked in the direction of the omen, then said to Wang Qiang and Xing San, "Uncle, Third Uncle, let's line up the sticks like we're clearing the mountain. I'll be the first to hit the stick, and then we'll line up one by one to the south, starting with 50 meters, and check all the trees one by one to see if there's anything that's making a noise."

Gagu is a Northeastern dialect, meaning alternative.

Wang Qiang and Xing San followed the Zhao army to the south. The heavy snow blocked the mountain, and the three of them could only look for clues from the trees. There was no other way.

Just as what Zhao Jun saw when he came up the mountain, wherever there was wild ginseng, there were stories about it.

Water, light, ventilation, soil, and trees are the essential growth environment and factors.

The forest where the ginseng grows can be described with a confusing phrase: it's not noisy when you say it's not noisy, but it's also noisy when you say it's not noisy.

The trees were sparse, but there were some coniferous shrubs in between. The three of them had a very hard time climbing the mountain, and they only managed to move less than 60 meters in half an hour.

Zhao Jun stopped Wang Qiang and Xing San, and he looked back. Although Zhao Jun changed the fortune sign on the tree and changed it to an ordinary old sign to confuse people, the direction of the sign did not change.

After lining up for more than 50 meters and finding nothing, Zhao Jun made another decision and said, "Uncle, Third Uncle, let's line up for another 100 meters."

The three of them ran in one direction and then lined up south. They said they would line up for 100 meters, but they only stopped after they had lined up for nearly 120 meters.

Zhao Jun looked back, he could no longer see the sign on the tree, but he felt that the direction was correct. And the widow Wang was not a hermit, since he had made a mark, the sign of the treasure would not be too far from the mark.

"Boy, let's continue the line?" Xing San was not afraid of hard work, but Zhao Jun shook his head and said, "It won't work if it's farther away. I guess it won't work. He has left the mark on the ground."

"On the ground... what should we do?" Wang Qiang couldn't help but frown when he heard it. The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and no matter how many people were mobilized, they couldn't clear the snow.

"Tsk!" Zhao Jun smacked his lips, pinched his waist with one hand and said, "What should we do? We have to go back."

There’s nothing we can do if we can’t find it, we can only wait until next spring.

At this time, Zhao Jun raised his hand and pointed at the red pine tree that was carved with omen, and said, "Uncle, if it doesn't work today, let's come back tomorrow."

"Let's look around again tomorrow?" Wang Qiang asked, "What if I didn't look carefully just now?"

"That's fine!" Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Let's come early tomorrow and look around here. If there is one, that would be great; if not, we'll just let it go to the tree."

"Boy, you'd better not let it go." At this time, Xing San tried to dissuade him, "Old Zheng and Blind Pang come looking for it every year. They can't find it anyway, but if you cut the tree down, they will come here next year and see that there is one less tree. How can they not wonder?"

They didn't notice the old omen in the first place, and if the tree hadn't aroused their suspicion, it would have been a waste of time.

"Then don't be afraid." Wang Qiang said: "Even if they come to find it, they don't know which side Zhao is on."

"Hey?" Zhao Jun's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Wang Qiang's words. He raised his hand and pointed to the north, saying, "Let's go over there and take a look."

Seeing that the two were puzzled, Zhao Jun said, "Then the widow Wang might be a sign of rebellion."

As soon as Zhao Jun said this, Wang Qiang and Xing San's eyes lit up, and they followed Zhao Jun and walked north.

They are all experienced mountain hikers. Although they don't plant ginseng, they also know what the counter-signs are.

Although mountains have their own rules, people have their own rules. Some people follow their rules, while others do not.

Just like Zhao Jun, he has been in the mountains for so long, and he has never made any signs. Today is the first time, and it is just to fool people.

Some herders are even worse, they leave signs but also reverse signs. Normally, the best place for a sign to hit the old ridge is the place with the fifth or sixth grade leaves.

But when leaving the omen, he chose to let the omen point in the opposite direction. This can not only prevent others from seeing the omen and raising their hands, but also mark himself. After all, he can definitely understand the omen left by his own gang.

Widow Wang has a beard, who can hold him to account? So what Zhao Jun said was a sign of rebellion, it was very likely.

The three of them pushed northward according to the reverse omen, and near two pine trees lined up like a front door. After passing through them, there was a big lime tree in front of them. If there was a reverse omen, then it would be facing this lime tree.

As soon as the three of them got to the tree, they immediately became suspicious of it. A lime tree will not die even if it is left empty, but this lime tree not only leaned to the south, but also had a hole halfway up the root, but the hole was blocked by a large bluestone.

This large bluestone was taller than the Zhao army's knees and as big as a millstone.

"This..." Xing San frowned and said, "The three of us can't even move this stone, so what the widow Wang said is useless!"

Zhao Jun understood what Xing San meant. Burying treasure was a secret matter, and normally Widow Wang would not let others know about it. But if he relied on himself alone, it would be impossible to move the big bluestone.

But Zhao Jun looked back at the red pine tree, and then circled around the linden tree. When he got to the back, Zhao Jun's eyes widened and he called out, "Uncle, Third Uncle, come quickly!"

Wang Qiang and Xing San turned around and saw that the tree trunk had what looked like marks of an axe or knife. The marks that were once very clear were now invisible without careful observation.

"Uncle!" Zhao Jun pointed at the mark and asked, "Do you think this is the word Wang?"

　There will be an extra update around 2 o'clock. I'm cleaning up the yard today. It has been raining for several days in a row. Today is finally a sunny day. After that, I checked the weather forecast and it will rain in the next few days.
