The two of them followed the trail to Shishidaogou.
This Shidaogou is said to be a village, but in fact it is not that big, with only thirty or forty households inside and outside. Before coming here, Li Su heard people say that most of the Han people in Changbai Mountain are descendants of Shandong who traveled to Guandong before liberation. They are relatively straightforward in temperament and don't like to beat around the bush when talking and doing things.
At the foot of the hillside, in front of a slightly low house, an old man was squatting in the vegetable garden in front of the house, tidying up the vegetable plot. When he saw a car driving far away, the old man didn't even raise his head.
Li Su and Liu Yu parked the car and walked over slowly. Li Su cleared his throat and wanted to talk to the old man and ask where Chen Ergou lived.
But before Li Su could speak, the old man stood up.
The old man's back is slightly hunched, and his beard and hair are all white, but his shoulders and back look full of muscles. It looks like they are the kind of muscles that have been cultivated through years of hard work. Not only that, the old man's eyes are extremely bright, not as ordinary as usual. The cloudy look in the old man's eyes made him look more like a wolf living among dogs.
The old man looked Li Su up and down in front of him, but he didn't even look at Liu Yu who was beside him. This made Liu Yu on the side very dissatisfied. But just when he was about to speak, the old man spoke first, "You guys are Who? What are you doing here?"
The old man's words were short, but every word was like a nail, driven into the hearts of Li Su and Liu Yu by an invisible sledgehammer.
Li Su can be considered a master who has seen the world, but she really didn't expect that the words of the old man in front of her would be so powerful. It was just an ordinary word, but it sounded so oppressive.
Li Su was not the kind of master who gave in easily. The old man stared at her, and she stared at the old man, and said word by word: "Hello, old man! Sorry, I have taken the liberty to disturb you. We are here. I want to find someone..."
The old man looked at Li Su, and after a while he said slowly: "Your accent sounds like you are from outside the city? Are you from the capital...?"
Li Su nodded slightly and said, "That's right! We are from the forestry department in the capital... We came here to collect some samples for research."
As Li Su spoke, he took out a work permit from his pocket and put it in front of the old man. Of course, Li Su had prepared this work permit in advance. It was Li Su's style to be prepared.
The old man slowly took the work permit from Li Su's hand, opened it and looked at it for a while, then said: "Beijing Forestry Bureau Nature Reserve and Wildlife Protection Office..."
Li Su nodded and said, "That's right!"
The old man nodded slightly and said, "Your name is so long!"
Li Su smiled and said: "Indeed... the name of our department is indeed a bit long! May I ask what your last name is?"
The old man returned the certificate in his hand to Li Su. It seemed that because of the government department, the old man's attitude began to soften, but he did not answer Li Su's words. Instead, he looked at Liu Yu beside him and asked: " I've seen this girl's ID, where's yours?"
As soon as the old man said these words, Li Su and Liu Yu couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
Because when setting off from the capital, Li Su only prepared her own ID, but not for Liu Yu. In her mind, no one would look at two people's IDs at the same time.
But what Li Su never expected was that the old guy in front of him would be such a thief. After confirming his identity, he turned his attention to Liu Yu.
Fortunately, Liu Yu reacted quickly enough. When the old man asked, he stepped forward and said, "I forgot my ID in the office when I left. Otherwise... I'll call the office and you can verify it with them." My identity? Old man, do you think this is okay?"
The old man did not answer Liu Yu's words immediately. After looking at Liu Yu up and down for a while, he shook his head and said, "Don't bother me. Since you two are together, I won't worry about anything... Okay." , who did you two come to our Shiandaogou to find?"
Li Su heard the old man's question and hurriedly replied: "The two of us want to find an eldest brother named Chen."
Hearing the surname "Chen", the old man frowned slightly and said, "The surname is Chen...? What is your name?"
Li Su said: "Chen Ergou!"
The old man was stunned and then said: "What are you looking for me for?"
As soon as the old man's words came out, Li Su and Liu Yu were stunned. They really didn't expect that the first person they met when they arrived at Shidaogou was the Chen Ergou they were looking for. Therefore, the two of them spent a long time Only then did he react.
Li Su, who had regained his composure, hurriedly said: "You...are you Chen Ergou?"
Chen Ergou nodded and said, "That's right! I am... But, what do you want from me? To lead you into the mountains?"
Li Su nodded and said, "That's right!"
Chen Ergou asked again: "What are you looking for when you go into the mountain?"
Li Su did not speak, but took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Chen Ergou, and then said: "We want to find this..."
Chen Ergou took the photo and looked at it. The expression on his face became more solemn, and he didn't speak for a while.
Liu Yu beside him asked angrily: "Mr. Chen, what does your expression mean?"
Chen Ergou still didn't speak. There was a big stone at the door of his house. He asked the two people to sit down. Then, Chen Ergou lit a bag of dry cigarettes. After taking a few puffs, he slowly asked: "I Say, do you know what the things in this photo are?”
Li Su said: "Of course I know... Tianchi Snow Lotus!"
Chen Ergou said: "Why are you looking for this thing?"
Liu Yu said from the side: "I told you just now, we are going to take them back for research... You also know that our department is to protect these special species..."
Chen Ergou did not answer Liu Yu's words. He looked at Li Su and said word by word: "Then do you know where this thing grows?"
Li Su shook his head and said: "Of course we don't know this...that's why we came here to ask for your help..."
Chen Ergou took two puffs of his dry pipe, and then said: "I have spent most of my life in this forest... I have only seen Tianchi Snow Lotus once..."
Li Su said with a little excitement when he heard this: "Have you seen this snow lotus?"
Chen Ergou nodded and said: "Not only have I seen it, but I almost lost my life because of it..."
Li Su then asked: "Then can you take me to find it?"
Who would have imagined that Chen Ergou said without even thinking about it: "No!"
Chen Ergou's answer was beyond the expectations of the two people present. They looked at Chen Ergou with wide eyes and asked, "Why?"
March, early spring.

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim red rain of blood.
The walls in the city are broken and everything is withered. Collapsed houses can be seen everywhere, as well as blue-black corpses and pieces of meat, like broken autumn leaves, silently withering.
The streets that used to be bustling with people are now desolate.
The sandy dirt road that used to be bustling with people is no longer noisy now.
Only blood and mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper were left, indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck deep in the mud, full of sadness. Only an abandoned rabbit doll hung on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of eerieness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some residual resentment, looking lonely at the mottled rocks in front of them.
There, a figure was lying down.
This was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, his clothes were torn and covered with dirt, and he had a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The young man squinted his eyes and remained motionless. The biting cold penetrated his worn coat from all directions and spread throughout his body, gradually taking away his body temperature.

Following his gaze, he saw a skinny vulture gnawing on the carrion of a wild dog, seven or eight feet away from him, occasionally observing the surroundings vigilantly.
It seems that in this dangerous ruins, if there is the slightest movement, it will instantly rise into the air.
