The hot spring water flows out from the cracks in the rocks on the top of the mountain, so the spring must be there.

Yun Shu used his spiritual consciousness to scan and found that the mountainside behind the rock wall was hollow. Only seven or eight meters away was a small oval hot spring pool. The spring eye in the middle was constantly spurting out spring water, and the pool water was constantly overflowing. , and then flowed out from the rock wall on the north slope due to the mountain topography.

Now that the spring was discovered, Yun Shu naturally couldn't miss the opportunity to soak in the hot spring, and a place to rest at night was also determined.

But when she climbed, she didn't find the entrance to the hot spring mountain.

It wasn't until Yun Shu used his consciousness again and searched carefully that he found clues on the top of the mountain.

There is an oak tree growing on the top of Xishan Mountain, surrounded by low shrubs and grass. Now the ground is also withered and yellow.

The oak tree can reach 25 meters in height, but Yun Shu found among these tall and straight oak trees that one was only more than ten meters high and one meter in diameter. The two of them were hugging the thick oak tree. This was a bit weird. I didn’t listen. It is said that trees will also gain weight.

If it were someone else, he probably wouldn't be so curious and wouldn't be so bored, but it was Yun Shu who discovered this weird image now.

After scanning with his spiritual consciousness, Yun Shu discovered that the part exposed on the top of the mountain was not all of the oak tree.

Under the soil and rocks with a thickness of four to five meters, the hollow belly of the mountain was suddenly discovered. Perhaps the rock was weathered and broken, and a hole appeared on the top of the mountain.

It happened that an oak tree seed fell into the heart of the mountain from the entrance of the cave. It took root and sprouted, gradually grew up, and grew out of the entrance of the cave.

So it is not that it is short and fat and grows horizontally, but that there is a thick trunk more than ten meters below the ground.

The branches of this oak tree grow at the top of the cave entrance, and the fallen dead branches and leaves just block the cave entrance.

However, sunlight can still shine into the heart of the mountain through the gaps between these dead branches and leaves.

It is precisely these "snake-in-the-sand" sunlight that form a small community of fungi - Ganoderma lucidum - in the open space in the middle of the mountain about half the size of a land (about 30 square meters) below.

When Yun Shu saw the Ganoderma lucidum growing at the roots of the oak tree, she subconsciously wiped her eyes, and then realized that she was using her spiritual consciousness. This was not an hallucination before her eyes.

At this time, Yun Shu wished he could look up to the sky and laugh three times. What is meant by "obtaining it without any effort" and what is meant by "opportunity", this is probably the situation now.

Yun Shu took out a high-end folding engineer shovel from the space mall, which has the functions of shovel, pickaxe, crowbar (thorn), saw, and knife.

Through his spiritual consciousness, Yun Shu cleaned up the shrubs and grass on one side of the oak tree at the entrance of the cave, and then used an engineer shovel to carefully shovel away the rotten soil and dead branches and leaves on the crisscrossing branches.

There are also many acorns (oak tree fruits) and tussah silkworm cocoons mixed in. Some are rotten, but more are intact.

Yun Shu's eyes lit up. How could she have forgotten these treasures? Whether they were acorns or cocoons, they were all useful things.

The village only knows that acorns can be fed to pigs after being shelled, but in fact people can also eat them.

Acorns can resist, alleviate, and prevent the poisoning of the human body by heavy metals such as lead. Eating acorn tofu and other foods made from acorn powder can protect the physical and mental health of the human body, improve the human body's immunity, and improve children's intelligence and development. level, and acorn tofu is also a good way to relieve summer heat.

The most important thing is that acorns are a grain that is said to be older than rice and wheat.

Dried fruits such as pine nuts, hazelnuts, and pecans are nothing more than snacks, but acorns can contain 50 to 60% starch, which fights hunger!

In just a moment, she had an idea in her mind, and then she quickly picked up more than a dozen kilograms of acorns and a pile of silkworm cocoons and put them into the space, just waiting to put them into practice when she got home.

Yun Shu may not be able to lead the villagers to wealth and glory like those heroines in the novel, but she is not a heartless person. If she has the ability, she will naturally not be stingy in her kindness.

After cleaning up, the staggered and rotten oak tree branches on the ground were exposed. Yun Shu used the pickaxe on the engineer shovel to lift up near the trunk, and a half-meter-wide hole came into view.

Taking advantage of the already slanting sunlight, Yun Shu could clearly see the clusters of Ganoderma lucidum under the roots of the trees in the heart of the mountain below. They were as bright as blood, and they turned out to be the best red mushrooms.

With Yun Shu's current physical fitness, he would not be injured if he jumped directly from a height of more than ten meters, but it would be troublesome to come up.

So she didn't take any tricks, but took out the safety rope from her backpack, tied it around the branch branches of the tree crown, and then slid down the thick trunk with the safety rope.

When he arrived at the bottom of the cave, Yun Shu did not study the red mushrooms immediately, but first observed the surrounding environment.

This is a natural cave, more than ten meters high and about thirty square meters in size. There are layers of rot and dead branches on the ground, and there are moss and fungi everywhere. Yun Shu knows a few types, which are edible, and there are also bright ones that he doesn’t recognize. mushroom.

The air in the cave is not too fresh and smells of decay and sulfur.

Probably because of the large opening of the cave, cold air entered, and when it hit the warm and humid air, white mist gradually rose.

And this white mist comes from the right side of the Oak Tree Cave, where there is a gap that can only allow one person to pass sideways.

Yun Shu's consciousness swept over and saw the hot spring she saw through the rock wall outside.

The cave where the hot spring is located is about the same size as the Oak Tree Cave. Although there is no sunlight, a fluorescent fungus actually grows inside.

This luminous fungus is called Pseudomonas Armillaria. The mycelium fluoresces in the dark at the beginning. When the mycelial cords turn yellow to yellow-brown and the roots become flat, they no longer glow.

False Armillaria fungus basically grows in clusters at the base of tree trunks or roots in summer and autumn. It is edible and delicious.

Yun Shu did not expect to find traces of it in the heart of the mountain. A closer look revealed that it was parasitic on the well-developed root system of the oak tree. In view of the figure she had spied with her consciousness earlier, it should be the spores carried by mountain rats.

Speaking of mountain rats, Yun Shu turned his attention to a corner of the oak tree cave. There was actually a cave entrance leading to the lower level.

This hole is not big and should have been dug by animals like pangolins. The mountain rats that Yun Shu saw earlier came in and out here.

Yun Shu's consciousness passed through the entrance of the cave and snaked down for more than ten meters. He unexpectedly found another cave. High and low stalactites hung down from the top of the cave. There were water droplets falling down, making a rhythmic clicking sound. sound.

This turned out to be a cave in the middle of the mountain, with underground rivers flowing through it.

Because of the distance and rock obstruction, Yun Shu's consciousness can only go here. But looking at the direction, the exit should be at the foot of the north slope. There is a large lake there, and the lake goes eastward, from the north of Sifang Mountain. After bypassing the mountains and crossing mountains and ridges, the final destination is Erdaobai River.

Yun Shu withdrew her consciousness and marveled at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature, and then focused on the charming beauty that tempted her - Chizhi.

I saw her rubbing her hands a little obscenely, and said with a smile: "Haha, little baby, I'm coming too!"
