The time has come to the beginning of the fourth lunar month.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

With the help of his second sister-in-law, Li Muyang can concentrate on digging Cordyceps sinensis in Xishan without any worries. Although it is a bit hard to get up early and stay late at night, the harvest is full.

It may be that he has gradually mastered the rhythm of digging Cordyceps, or it may be that as time goes by, Cordyceps gradually begins to emerge from the ground in large areas, and Li Muyang’s harvest increases day by day.

From 19 cords on the first day, there were 43 cords on the seventh day, and his total cordyceps had reached a full 260 cords.

Even if one stick is counted as 3 cents, it is 78 yuan.

It’s a huge fortune.

His cans and bottles are full.

It happened that it was raining today and there was no way to go to the mountains. Li Muyang decided to sell the cordyceps first with the bottle in hand.

Right now, Cordyceps has not started here yet, and his Cordyceps is the only one.

It’s a rare commodity, and the price should be higher.

If after everyone goes digging, the medicinal material supply and marketing center in the town will know the news, and they will definitely take the opportunity to slightly suppress the price, and he will lose money.

When things are sold for money, Li Muyang can rest assured when the money is in his hands.

"Mom, I'm going to town. I'll buy you tofu to eat when you come back."

Li Muyang prepared everything for his mother and went out carrying the canvas bag.

Lijia Village is six or seven miles away from the town. It would take an average person thirty minutes to walk. Li Muyang's legs are very strong. He doesn't take the main road and climbs over halfway up the mountain. It only takes twenty minutes to get there.

His family is very poor and does not own a bicycle, so he has to rely on his legs for everything.

The rain outside was moderate, and Li Muyang didn't have a raincoat, let alone an umbrella. He folded a snakeskin bag into a poncho, put it on his head and went out.

The direction of Qingquan Town is south of Wangjia Village. He does not need to go to Taoshan. Instead, he climbs a small hill that can hardly be called a mountain. People call this mountain Gou'er Mountain.

Because the shape of the mountain looks like a dog.

There is also a beautiful legend in the mountain. It is said that an old man raised a dog. Later, the old man's children went to war and died on the battlefield. The old man went to the battlefield and left the dog waiting at the door of his house.

As a result, the old man also died on the battlefield and never came back, but the dog waited until death and finally turned into this little dog mountain.

It's strange to say that many dogs in the village are very fierce and bark very hard, but when they come to Gou'er Mountain, they become quite quiet, and sometimes they even whimper in a low voice, as if they are crying silently.

It’s amazing.

So people built a small Dog Temple in Gou'er Mountain.

They don’t particularly offer incense or worship, but whenever they pass by the temple gate, people can’t help but rub their dogs’ heads, and their eyes become a little more tender.

The feelings for dogs in the mountains are beyond the understanding of ordinary people.

You can look after the house and the courtyard at home, you can bravely fight wild beasts when you go out, and you can protect your master at critical moments.

Basically they are wolf dogs such as Langqing.

They are almost stupidly loyal, and they only have one master in their hearts throughout their lives.

Even if the owner's family didn't take care of it since childhood, it wouldn't really take it seriously.

When Li Muyang passed by the Gou'er Temple, he stopped, pulled out the weeds next to the Gou'er Temple, gently clasped his hands at the Gou'er statue, stood silently for a moment, and then continued forward.

In his previous life, he also raised a very obedient wolf Qing.

Very loyal and obedient.

It's a puppy that was thrown away by someone in the village.

When he first came back, the dog was only about the size of a palm. He was very kind to the dog, almost saving food from his own mouth to feed the dog.

Lang Qing was originally a meat eater, but in this era, he didn't care about choosing. He was slowly raised by Li Muyang's "coarse food".

He looks majestic, covered in reddish brown, with only a blue-black pattern on his back.

The villagers said that this was not a purebred wolf, but a cross between a wolf and a domestic dog. It was not worth keeping and it was just a waste of food.

But Li Muyang raised it after obtaining Lin Xiuli's consent.

Later, there was a mudslide in the mountains. When the dog dragged Li Muyang's youngest son out of the house, he happened to reach the door. The house collapsed, and half of his body was crushed in the rubble.

Li Lin is fine, the dog was crushed to death on the spot.

Li Muyang's whole family was very sad, especially Li Muyang. For a while, he even had hallucinations. The dog was still not dead, lying under the eaves. As long as he called him, it would run into the house and wag its tail.

Li Muyang disliked his younger son Li Lin for a long time in his previous life. It was for this reason.

Whenever he saw Li Lin, he seemed to see the pitiful and sad look in the dog's eyes at that moment when it was crushed to death.

It is said that dogs can understand human nature after being raised for a long time. Li Muyang felt that his dog was like this. What they lost was not just a dog, but more like a family member.

In his previous life, Li Muyang would quietly come to Gou'er Mountain and sit for a while every year on the day of Lang Qing's death. Later, when the Gou'er Temple was established, he would place a meat bone in front of the Gou'er Temple.

Such is his character.

As long as someone is kind to him...or a dog, he will always remember it in his heart.

If you receive a drop of kindness from someone, you should repay it with a spring of water.

Gou Zi sacrificed his life in order to save his child. He had no way of repaying this kindness. He could only keep Gou Zi in his heart silently and never forget it.

Today, when he walked through the Dog Temple, he no longer had sad eyes, but a look of joy.

He knew that the dog in this life had not yet been born, and he would go and find it after it was born.

You must be better to it in this life.

Not only can we have meat every day, but we can at least provide some big bones every now and then.

Based on the kindness I received from my previous life, I can't even repay him even if I feed him bones for a lifetime.

Gou'er Mountain is a dirt mountain. There are no very tall trees on the mountain, and there are mainly some thorny creatures.

This includes some good stuff too.

For example, wild wolfberry, wild wild jujube, etc.

Wild wolfberry is still a very common thing in this era, but at this time people did not have health awareness, so they did not take it seriously.

If it grows in fields, it will be pulled out as a very annoying weed.

But in later generations, as the number of wolfberries in thermos cups increased, artificially grown wolfberries became popular, and the value of wild wolfberries was gradually discovered, and the price also increased, soaring to surprising levels.

In addition to wild wolfberry, another plant covered with thorns is wild wild jujube.

Wild jujube and wild jujube are not the same thing.

Some people in later generations always like to compare the two things, but in fact they are two different wild fruits.

Wild jujubes are wild jujubes. Compared with the jujubes that people eat daily, wild jujubes are slightly smaller and mature earlier. They are not as sweet as the improved and cultivated jujubes.

The jujube is a very small red fruit that tastes sour. The skin and flesh are very thin, and there is very little that can be eaten.

Before it dries, it can still be kneaded a little. Once it dries, it looks like dried longan, with only a layer of skin wrapped around the big core. Only children who really have nothing to eat will pick it up and eat it.
