Chen Xiaobei witnessed the miracle medicine Yang Zhi gave him. It can make snakes sleep instantly, and it can also make schools of fish gather for three days.
Therefore, it is not surprising that there is a magic medicine that makes tigers listen to people after eating it.
After Chen Xiaobei thanked him again, he carefully put the stone ball into his pocket.
After finishing several large pots of deliciously fragrant chicken, everyone reluctantly put down their bowls and chopsticks.
Qin Gang's face was full of smiles, "There is no good wine or food in the mountains and wild places, just simple food. I hope you don't dislike it."
Chen Xiaobei quickly bowed and thanked him again, "You are so polite, old man. These are already very good."
Looking back outside, I don't know when the rain stopped long ago, and the sun shines on the valley again.
Chen Xiaobei gently touched Liu Rumei's arm. Of course Liu Rumei understood it and smiled at Qin Gang again and said, "Grandpa Qin, it's getting late. We have to go back."
Qin Gang nodded and made a gesture to an old man next to him. The old man immediately got up and went inside. With little effort, he came out holding a wooden box.
"Miss Liu, there is a three-hundred-year-old ginseng tree here. That is a little bit of my heart."
Liu Rumei quickly waved her hands, "No, no, Grandpa Qin, you should keep such a valuable thing for yourself."
"Well, there are a lot of ginseng and Ganoderma in my valley. If you come in once in a while, I can't let you go back empty-handed."
"Ah, in that case, it's better to be respectful than to obey." Liu Rumei smiled and took the ginseng.
Everyone stood up and said goodbye, walked out of the cave, turned around the boulder, and came to the waterfall. Huzi reluctantly asked, "Sister, sister, when will you come back to play with Huzi after you leave?"
Liu Rumei frowned, "I can't say for sure. It takes me a whole day to come here. I started from the bottom of the mountain at noon yesterday..."
Hearing this, Huzi turned and looked at Qin Gang, "Grandpa, grandpa, why don't you let your sister take our road? We can reach the bottom of the mountain in half a day."
After hearing this, Qin Gang hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded slightly.
"Forget it, since Miss Liu has come in, let me tell you the way out of the mountain. It will be more convenient for you to come back in the future."
"You guys, if you take that road, you can get down to the official road before dark, and then back to the village. I think it's only ten or eight miles away."
Seeing Qin Gang's permission, Huzi was overjoyed and jumped up and down to the front to lead them.
Walking along the stone wall for about three miles, we came to a corner. From here we could see circular depressions on the steep stone wall.
Huzi pointed at these depressions and said, "Climb up here and keep climbing. There will be a rope at the top. If you follow the rope down, you can go down the mountain."
Liu Ziming and Liu Ziliang agreed and climbed up one after the other.
After climbing for a while, they could no longer be seen standing at the bottom of the mountain. Chen Xiaobei stepped back several feet and realized this. This steep stone wall is like a step. Every few feet higher, it will go inward a little.
It's like stacking building blocks layer by layer, from wide to narrow.
Seeing that the two of them had climbed to a height of thirty feet, they finally stopped. Two voices came from above, "Miss, uncle, come up. It's not particularly difficult to climb."
Huzi smiled at them, "Don't worry, it's easy to walk. I can get up there."
With Hu Zi's words, Liu Rumei felt relieved, but he still let Chen Xiaobei and the two village protection team members go first, and they stayed behind.
Chen Xiaobei nodded. There was no need to refuse at this time, he could just go ahead.
Chen Xiaobei took the lead in climbing up, followed closely by Chen Daqiang and Chen Sanliang, followed by the Liu family guards, while Liu Rumei stayed at the end.
Seeing that everyone had climbed several feet high, Liu Rumei was about to climb up when a voice sounded from behind her.
"Miss Liu, please stay."
Liu Rumei turned her head and looked over, only to realize that Qin Gang was standing behind her at some point.
Liu Rumei hurriedly stepped forward and cupped her fists, "Grandpa Qin, do you have any other orders?"
"Miss Liu, this is a place we must pass when we go out. Please don't make any noise."
Liu Rumei nodded, "Grandpa Qin, don't worry, I won't tell anyone after I get out."
Qin Gang breathed a sigh of relief, "I will pull up the rope after you go down. It's not easy to climb up from the outside. If you want to come, you have to come the way you came."
"Grandpa Qin, don't worry, I'll bring you some food in a while." Liu Rumei said with a smile.
Qin Gang waved his hand, "You don't have to pay for food and drink. I have them here."
"I just want to ask you a few more questions, who is the emperor now?"
So that's it, Liu Rumei quickly responded, "The emperor's surname is Xiao, and his name is An."
Upon hearing this, Qin Gang frowned, "After all, he became the emperor."
From his tone, Liu Rumei clearly heard a hint of helplessness and dissatisfaction.
"Grandpa Qin, Prince Xiao Jingyun is now the supervisor of the country. I'm afraid the emperor will have to abdicate soon."
Hearing this, Qin Gang's eyebrows showed a hint of joy, but it only flashed past, "Oh, okay, as long as the world is stable."
After speaking, he hugged Liu Rumei and said, "Ms. Liu, be careful all the way."
After Liu Rumei returned the greeting, she turned around and jumped up the stone wall while climbing up. She was thinking about Qin Gang's actions just now. Obviously, the most important question Qin Gang had after catching up was to know who was the emperor outside now.
And judging from the look on the other person's face after what he said about Xiao An, he might have some issues with this Xiao An.
Of course, these are not issues that I have to consider now. The most important thing now is to go to the top of the mountain and see the way down.
After climbing to the top of the mountain in one breath, Liu Rumei realized that the outside was almost straight up and down. In comparison, the way she came just now was quite relaxed and pleasant.
No wonder no one has discovered the hidden cave inside this place for so many years. Without this rope, it would be more difficult to climb up from the bottom of the mountain than to the sky.
Huzi pointed at the rope and said with a smile, "You guys go down and I will pull up the rope."
"Usually, this rope is only put down when Grandpa and the others enter the city."
Liu Rumei and Chen Xiaobei looked at each other with admiration in their eyes. It must be said that Qin Gang and the others designed this carefully. To the maximum extent possible, it is guaranteed not to be discovered.
Walking down the mountain along the rope, Chen Xiaobei sighed secretly in his heart. If he hadn't insisted on going to Hulu Valley to see something, and if Liu Rumei hadn't insisted on going to the end to see what happened, he would have missed this adventure.
The rope was dozens of feet long. Halfway through, the mountain became somewhat flat, and the surrounding trees became denser. No rope was needed, and one could slowly go down the mountain by holding on to the trees.
Of course, this also brings about a problem. Even if you can walk down the rope now, it may not be easy for you to come in and find this rope tomorrow.
