Qiao Lian hurriedly ran forward, fortunately she had a flashlight in her hand, plus Qu Weiyang's reminder, pay attention to her feet.

Even so, he barely braked, and one foot hit the edge of the steep slope.

It wasn't actually a steep slope, it was supposed to be a fault zone, and the ground had sunk directly into it.

The bushes and grass in the vicinity were dense, and I didn't pay much attention to it when it was dark at night, so I stepped on it carelessly and rolled down.

"Jiakang, how are you?" Qiao Lian stepped on the edge and took the flashlight to shine down, and found that it was quite deep underneath, and couldn't help but be a little anxious.

The child is so young, what if he falls to the bottom all of a sudden, what if he falls?

I knew that I shouldn't have brought Jiakang here, and the two of them just came out for a walk, which was good, and let the children suffer.

At this time, she couldn't care about anything, Qiaolian held on to the tree on the side and rushed down directly.

Fortunately, although this is a fault zone, there is still some slope, not vertical, but not falling, but by the inertia of the downward rush, a few stumbles.

"Mom, I'm fine, the grass is soft underneath, I'm not hurt. My dad has come down, don't worry, Mom. ”

Before Jiakang could finish speaking, Qiaolian had already rushed down from above. Finally grabbed the branch and stopped, turned back to Jiakang and Qu Weiyang with a flashlight.

As a result, she saw that her son and husband were more than ten steps away from her, and Qu Weiyang was helping Jiakang up.

"Jiakang, are you like this? Look, I said you guys were right around here, why did you come here? Scared the hell out of me. ”

Qiao Lian's anxious tears fell, rushed to her son's side, and hugged her son.

Since there is Jiajun Jiahe, Qiaolian rarely hugs two big ones, after all, the child will be embarrassed when he is older.

At this moment, Jiakang was held in his mother's arms, and his frightened heart gradually calmed down.

Jiakang stretched out his hand to hug Qiao Lian's waist, "Mom, I'm fine, I'm just not paying attention to stepping on the air and rolling down, it's really fine, don't worry." ”

Qu Weiyang looked at his daughter-in-law and son, who were hugging each other, and he didn't know what to say.

He didn't notice the terrain just now, Jiakang said that he wanted a large size, refused to be near the tent, and ran in a hurry.

Qu Weiyang followed behind, how did he know that if he didn't pay attention, the child rolled to the bottom of the hill in front of him?

"Ahem, it's me who didn't take a good look at the child, so I worried you." Qu Weiyang felt embarrassed and coughed.

"Mom, it's not bad Dad, I have to run a little farther, I want to solve the tuba. Oh no, I'm going to have to find a place. ”

Jiakang wanted to say something more, his stomach was uncomfortable for a while, and he couldn't quickly cover his stomach and turn around and run, Qu Weiyang hurriedly followed behind his son, for fear that his son would have another accident.

Seeing her son jumping around, he should not have been injured, and Qiao Lian breathed a sigh of relief.

When her son went to relieve herself, she couldn't follow, so she took a flashlight, planning to sit down first and calm her heartbeat.

There happened to be a big tree next to her, Qiao Lian thought about leaning against the root of the tree, and before she could sit down, the light of the flashlight shone under the tree, and a touch of red suddenly came into view.

Qiao Lian's eyes froze, and she hurriedly looked at the red color with a flashlight, and when she saw it, she actually laughed.

"Mallet, Veryan, mallet, pick up the mountain."

Northeast people generally call ginseng a mallet, probably because the roots under the ginseng look like spindles, so most people call it that.

When you go into the mountains and meet ginseng, the people who see it will shout a mallet, and it is said that this shout will scare the mallet.

Those old ginseng have become fine, and when they shouted so loudly, they were so frightened that the mallet didn't dare to move, and obediently stayed and waited for someone to dig it.

This is called shouting mountain, which is to tell the people around you that you have met ginseng.

Qu Weiyang was not far away, covering his nose, and when he heard his daughter-in-law's words, he was stunned.

After a while, he came back to his senses and quickly put down his hand, "How many leaves?" ”

There is a shouting mountain, this end wants to pick up the mountain, ask for a few leaves, that is, ask the size of the ginseng.

"Liupinye, it looks like a big commodity." At the other end, Qiao Lian shouted very excitedly, and while shouting, she took out a red rope tied to a copper coin from her arms and wrapped it directly around the ginseng straw.

This red rope, called Kuaidan rope, was used to entangle the ginseng, and the ginseng could no longer run.

Shouting the mountain, picking up the mountain, and then reporting the grade of ginseng here.

Generally speaking, ginseng goes through several stages from unearthing to growing, including three flowers, five leaves, two jiazi, lampstands, four leaves, five leaves, and six leaves.

If it is artificially planted garden ginseng, the first year is three flowers, which means that only three small leaves grow.

The second year is called five leaves, that is, five leaflets, and the third year is generally called Erjiazi, which means two palmate compound leaves.

By the fourth year, the three palm-shaped compound leaves are generally called lampstands. In the fifth year, it may be a four-grade leaf or a five-grade leaf, depending on whether the soil nutrients are sufficient.

Generally speaking, six-pint leaves are rarely seen in garden ginseng.

Mountain ginseng is different because it grows slowly in the wild, and the time required for each stage is not fixed, depending on the climatic conditions of the year it is experienced.

Moreover, there is also the phenomenon of reincarnation, for example, when the spores are unearthed this year, the spores are damaged, and they will lie dormant underground, only grow roots and not leaves, and wait for a year or a few years before they are re-unearthed.

Therefore, judging the size of mountain ginseng with a few leaves may not be accurate, but when encountering six-grade leaves, the probability of getting a large number of goods is relatively high.

Because after the mountain ginseng grows to the six-pint leaf, it will not grow any more leaves, generally speaking, it can grow to the six-pint leaf, which proves that the ginseng has grown for many years.

The ginseng tree Qiao Lian saw had a thick stem, more than one and a half feet high on the ground, and nearly two feet high, with a large ginseng seed on the top.

There are a lot of red and bright seeds, and you can see at a glance that there is probably a large amount of goods hidden underneath.

Qu Weiyang couldn't take care of his son at this time, so he came to Qiaolian's side in a few steps, looked down, and was overjoyed.

"Good guy, such a tall straw, maybe there's really a lot of goods down there. Unexpectedly, our Jiakang rolled out, and a big mallet came out. ”

"What to do? Shall we go out now, or will we wait until dawn to get up again? Shall I go back and get my house first? ”

The tools for digging ginseng were all in the tent, and he didn't have them with him, so Qu Weiyang turned around and was about to go back to get the tools.

"Okay, you go back and get the house first, let's wait here until dawn.

At this time, it is too dark, even if there is a flashlight shining on it, it is not easy to meet a big goods, we can't be blind. ”

Qiaolian is also full of joy, looking at this ginseng straw, it should be some years, it is rare to meet a big product, who is not excited?

Qu Weiyang nodded, turned around to find a place to climb up, and went back to the tent to get something.

At this time, Jiakang also came, and Qiaolian asked Jiakang to guard here, while she used a flashlight to look around.
