Traveling through ancient times

Gu Dalian thought so, rubbed her hands, and smiled. She looked like a complete hooligan!

Gu Wenzhi on the side felt it was embarrassing to watch. He never thought that his sister could be so naughty. She was really cute!

Gu Dalian had an idea and took out the sickle for cutting Panax notoginseng again.

Look at this milky white crystal, which is thick at the bottom and thin at the top. It seems that it is the crystal formed by the milky white liquid dripping and splashing over the years.

It is higher near the edge of the groove and lower in the center of the groove, forming a slope, and the highest point is only five centimeters!

Gu Wenzhi took the sickle and used it to cut from the center of the groove to the edge. The outermost edge was relatively soft, and it became harder towards the center. He cut hard through the center, and with a flash of force, the crystal fell off!

Excited, Gu Dalian took out a large soup cup with a lid for chicken soup from the space and asked Gu Wenzhi to put it in carefully! Then he sent it back to the space with a thought!

Looking at the edge of the groove, there were some white crystal slag that had not been cleaned up. Gu Dalian couldn't help but pick up some with her index finger and put it in her mouth.

A mellow sweetness like honey and a bit of red wine spreads in the mouth, slides down the throat into the stomach, and then slowly spreads throughout the body!

I just felt a heat spreading from my lower abdomen to my limbs and bones, giving me a feeling of being reborn.

Seeing how intoxicated she was, Gu Wenzhi scooped up some with his little finger and put it into his mouth, also becoming intoxicated by it!

During this time, Gu Dalian had come back to her senses. She took out a table knife and a plate, scraped the remaining crystals and put them on the plate!

This is good stuff. I’ll give it to my elder brother and younger sister later!

Now that they have dealt with this, the two of them looked up at the stone gate again!

Gu Dalian's curiosity is like a burning flame, always ready to explore the new world!

Gu Wenzhi tried to push the stone door, but it didn't move at all. He used all his strength but still couldn't budge it at all!

"Isn't there some mechanism?"

Gu Dalian said, after all, we have inherited thousands of years of experience from the ancients, so this is something we can think of!

"Let's each look for it!"

So, one of them touched all the protrusions on the edge of the stone gate, picking, pulling, twisting and moving them, but still unable to figure it out. The two of them stamped their feet in anxiety.

The entrance is so steep that I definitely can’t go up, I can only grope forward.

The little sister at the top of the cave must still be waiting there. The two of them have been down there for a while, and they are afraid that something might have happened to the little sister.

We still have to find a way to get out quickly, there is a wounded person waiting inside!

The two turned left and right, but found no suspicious places!

Gu Dalian's eyes rolled, and he walked towards the big rock, touching it left and right. He paused and found that there was a corner missing from the bottom of the big rock on the side close to the stone wall. Normally, it could not be seen, and the clue could only be discovered by touching it with hands!

There was a bulge the size of the bottom of a bowl next to the ground at the missing corner. I pushed down hard and heard the stone door rumbling downwards until it sank into the ground!

The two were confused. What kind of operation was this? Shouldn't they move to the side? How deep was the ground?

Without giving it much thought, the two continued walking forward with the lamp in hand. After a few steps, they saw a pond of about 80 square meters in size, the water so clear that they could see the bottom.

The stone steps beside the pond extended into the water step by step, and there seemed to be a dozen large boxes vaguely in the water at the end of the steps!

Hey, is there going to be another harvest? Gu Dalian smiled like a fool and said to Gu Wenzhi:

"Brother, let's go into the water and see what good stuff is in the box!"

Just like a child of the Jianghu! Gu Wenzhi looked at his elder sister and smiled dotingly, then hummed and walked from the steps to the box!

The lock on the big box was rusty and broke with a little force!

With a loud noise, the box opened, and the golden light almost blinded the brother and sister's titanium dog eyes. Gu Dalian didn't understand how the gold was converted in ancient times!

"Second brother, we're rich! Aha, that's great!" Gu Dalian excitedly scooped up water from the water and sprinkled it on his second brother!

"Don't be happy too soon!" Gu Wenzhi picked up a gold ingot and looked at it. "This is official silver from the previous dynasty. It has the official seal of the previous dynasty on it!"

"Brother, how did you know?"

"I know a friend in town. One of his relatives works as a clerk in the government office. He told him about the theft of official silver in the previous dynasty! The description is exactly the same as this!"

"Never mind, let's all take a look!" Then, seventeen or eighteen boxes were all opened, filled with gold ingots!

Looking at the huge gold ingot that was so close to her but she couldn't spend it, Gu Dalian was speechless. She just accepted it.

Put it in the living room and stack it up. It's good to look at it when you have nothing to do! Eighteen large boxes of gold ingots disappeared in an instant!

The two continued to explore forward, as if they were circling upwards. Halfway through, they found a dozen large boxes in a smaller cave, but they were not even chained.

There was a box full of ten taels of silver each, and the rest were either jewelry or antique paintings and calligraphy! With a wave of his hand, he entered Gu Dalian's space again!

"Hey, the fog in the living room of Room 601 has disappeared, and the rest of the rooms and bathroom are now visible! Is this enough gold and silver? Is this considered an upgrade?"

Looking at the open space outside, the 20 square meters of land seemed to have doubled in size.

The green seedlings grew into the thickness of an adult's thumb, thirty centimeters high, and the distance between them automatically widened. There were already two-fifths of dew drops in the bottle. How could it be so fast?

The expanded land was still planted with the Panax notoginseng that had been moved back. Seeing the vitality, Gu Dalian was stunned for a moment! Can space grow crops autonomously?

Now was not the time to think about those things, the two continued to circle upwards and finally saw the entrance to the cave.

When they looked up, they saw a crooked tree with lush branches and leaves growing diagonally above the third step where they were harvesting Panax notoginseng, which just covered the entrance to the cave.

Looking down, Xiaolian was anxiously circling around the tree hole and wiping her tears.

The two men hurriedly called Gu Xiaolian, gave her an instruction, then turned around and went back to look for Gu Ermei!

After this delay, he returned without stopping and walked for about half an hour!

Gu Ermei had just woken up and was still a little dazed. Everything was dark in front of her eyes and she was so scared that she was screaming and crying!

For safety reasons, Gu Dalian had already placed the lighting into the space, and she and her second brother followed the original path to find Gu Ermei. She helped the trembling Gu Ermei and staggered up to the entrance of the stone cave!

Now that they had a patient with them, it was a bit difficult to get down the stone wall. Finally, Gu Wenzhi went down to the stairs at the bottom first, and Gu Dalian followed behind.

Grab Gu Ermei's arms and slowly move down, and let Gu Wenzhi catch her. After Gu Ermei stood firm, Gu Dalian came down next;

Gu Wenzhi went down another step and repeated the previous action three times!

Finally they landed on the ground, and the exhausted Gu Wenzhi and Gu Dalian sat down on the stone ground, gasping for breath!

In fact, since Gu Wenzhi and his sister drank the dew, their physical condition has improved a lot. At that time, they also ate some white crystals, and their bodies seemed to be a lot lighter.

It's just that Gu Ermei has a wound on her head, and Old Madam Zhou usually takes good care of her, pampering her like a young lady in the boudoir. She is really like a fragile willow in the wind!

He was feeling dizzy again, and would scream in unbearable pain if touched slightly, which made the brother and sister very tired!

Gu Xiaolian and the other two finally returned to the resting place. It was already 3 p.m.!

When Mrs. Zhou saw that Gu Ermei was injured, she hurriedly asked Qin to get a set of clean clothes and then put a wet towel to wipe Gu Ermei's hands and face.

They put a sheet around the tree to cover Ermei and changed her clothes. They also asked Yao to bring hot food to Ermei. The three siblings seemed to have been completely forgotten!

Old lady Zhou sat opposite Ermei, calling her her darling and asking her with concern if it hurt, where she was injured and how it happened!

The Gu couple sat on one side and one side, while Damei and Xiaomei squatted on both sides of Old Lady Zhou, listening to the old lady asking about Ermei's well-being!

Gu Wenzhi and the other two sat far away, looking coldly at the warm scene over there, finding it extremely ironic!

Why are the three siblings so incompatible with the old Gu family?

Liu Li came over at this time, took out a few small pieces of rabbit meat and a small piece of wild vegetable steamed bread wrapped in cloth from his arms, stuffed them into Gu Wenzhi's hands, and said:

"Fill my stomach!" He turned around and walked back to his wife and daughter!

Although the three siblings had eaten before returning, they were still very touched by Liu Li's concern!

The three of them shared the meat, and one of them drank some water, and stuffed some milky crystals into Xiaolian's mouth! This wonderful feeling was passed on to Xiaolian!

The three of them kept silent, just waiting for the order and then continued their journey!

Yao sat next to Gu San and muttered:

"A little girl is more precious than our Zifan. I don't know what our mother is thinking! What's wrong with her being pretty? With our conditions, can we enter the palace and become a queen?"

Gu San scolded quietly:

"Shut up, you are asking for trouble. If our mother hears you, how can you be good? We have food and drink now, why do you care so much?"

Yao snorted and responded in a low voice: "I'm just talking to you!" The two of them said nothing more!

Just when things had calmed down, Gu Meihua started to curse:

"You are so kind-hearted. You don't even have enough food for yourself, and you still care about those brats. Just let them starve to death! Why did those little bastards blind you?"

"I'm sorry for making you so distressed. Just take care of yourself. Those few of them will be taken away by wolves sooner or later!"

Liu Li: "Okay, stop talking and don't let the kids follow your example!"

Liu Meili also changed the subject: "Mom, is there anything else you want to take? Put more in my and my brother's baskets, so you and my dad can save some time!"

Liu Meihua rolled her eyes at Liu Meili. She didn't understand what her daughter was thinking. She snorted and the "ungrateful little bastard" stopped!

Old Man Gu and Old Man Ma sat together and chatted, while the Ma family members had already packed up all their belongings and were ready to set off!

Gu Si's family was also sitting aside, chatting casually! Then Ma Mingli shouted, "Everyone, let's go!"

So, everyone carried their backpacks and leaned on their walking sticks, and walked forward in an orderly manner!

We didn't work hard today, so we rested long enough. We all chatted as we moved forward. After all, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. After eating and drinking enough, we have all the strength left. Let's try to walk ten or eight miles more today!

Gu Dalian silently observed the actions of the Ma family in front of her. Although they were all dressed like farmers, both adults and children were very calm and composed. They never panicked when faced with problems, and they did things in an orderly manner with a clear division of labor. This was not the behavior of ordinary people!

Although we met on the road, they didn't look like bad people, and each of them had a righteous look on his face.

These people must be hiding secrets. It doesn't concern me anyway. Curiosity kills the cat. I'd better just do what I have to do!

Adhering to the principle that a thief never leaves empty-handed, oh, no, it seems wrong to pluck feathers from a passing goose. No matter what, just don’t miss it if you pass by. Along the way, the two sisters picked whatever herbs they could and would never let them go!

The deeper they went, the narrower the road became, and the people who were clearing the way in front had to work even harder. They had to knock the trees with sticks in front, and use sickles and machetes to cut through the wormwood vines that blocked the road. The team also slowed down noticeably!

The more roads there were, the more dangerous the situation ahead was, proving that we had entered the depths of the forest. Everyone looked tense.

Not to mention the front, the unpaved roads on both sides were covered with weeds as tall as a person, making one's scalp tingle!

The young and strong men standing on both sides of the crowd had solemn expressions and were extremely alert. The voices of the old, weak, women and children were even lowered!

This is a life-threatening matter. The sounds of various animals in the forest make it even more eerie!

There were more and more pheasants and rabbits, and even a silly roe deer was seen. Everyone's eyes became excited, and they wanted to chase it together and beat the silly roe deer to death with sticks and eat its meat!

Mr. Ma saluted at Ma Mingli, who then waved to Ma Xiaolian who was standing behind him, and the two of them chased after the silly roe deer! !

"Grandma, Ermei feels dizzy and can't walk anymore!"

They walked for two hours in one go, and then followed the team for nearly an hour. The frail Gu Ermei, who had lost blood, signaled Xiaomei to tell her grandmother that the old Gu family had reached their limit!

"My dear granddaughter, take a rest. I am so worried about you! Gu Dalian, you are a dead person. You don't even know how to give your cousin a water bag to drink! You are such an idiot! You have no sense at all!"

While squeezing next to Ermei, Old Lady Zhou turned around and shouted to Gu Dalian behind her!

Mr. Ma glanced at the man on the left side of the periphery. The man looked up and shouted, "Everyone stop and rest where you are!"

Everyone collapsed on the ground. The haste of traveling could really take half the life out of a person!

Fortunately, the rest area was a gentle slope. The men cleared the weeds around it and sprinkled some medicine to prevent snakes, insects, rats and ants from approaching!

From dawn to late at night, everyone used the torches in their hands to light several fires and set up stoves to boil water and cook!

Gu Dalian didn't explore any further. It would be terrible if she fell into a cave in the dark.

For dinner, we always have hot steamed buns made from mixed grains and wild vegetables. We put the remaining meat and bones into the pot and cook them, then add some salt and the meat and bone soup is ready!

The three siblings got the least amount of food, but they didn't say a word. They hid aside and quietly ate the hamburgers made of big white steamed buns that Gu Dalian brought out. They were nutritious and convenient. Then they cut a little finger of milky white crystal and added it to the water. The three of them drank it together! They felt refreshed immediately!

The three of them were secretly happy when suddenly that old lady Zhou yelled, "Gu Dalian and Gu Xiaolian, you two little bastards, get over here!"
