There are local ghosts in Laogou that eat people.
This is a rumor that has been spread among gold diggers for many years.
God knows whether it is true or not.
It will take at least six days to go back and forth to Laogou.
We will face the greatest dangers.
First of all, the unpredictable natural climate; Traveling through this swamp meadow during the rainy season may seem like a dead end to those who don’t know the situation.
In fact, other seasons also have their own difficulties.
In winter, it is easy to get lost and you may encounter wolves.
In spring and autumn, the swamp is half frozen and half melted.
Look There is nowhere to pass.
On the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar, Sonnier and I brought a single-barreled shotgun and saw the two men in the river.
They were well prepared.
There was an iron pot tied to the big backpack behind Zhang Juwa.
When the two old Taoists met, they asked: "What if we encounter a wild beast without a few hunting dogs?"
Sonnier said: "There are no wild animals in the meadow this season, only wild birds and snakes.
Bringing a shotgun is enough for self-defense.
By the way, why are you still carrying an iron pot that is not too heavy?"
The second old Taoist said: "As soon as I walked in, I saw no one was around for several days.
It was cold and damp in the meadow.
I was wondering if I couldn't cook some hot food, so I asked my old apprentice to carry an iron pot.
It's okay.
He It’s not too heavy, it’s time for you to exert your strength.”
I said: "Taoist Master, your apprentice is not too heavy.
The problem is that we have to enter the meadow and wetland.
He is tall and strong and heavy, and he has to carry so many things.
If you want him to get stuck in the mud, let's make him ugly."
After all, he’s so big, we can’t drag him down in the swamp.”
The second old man said: "Oh, brother, what you said is so reasonable.
I didn't even expect it.
It seems that we can't bring the iron pot with us.
The lighter the weight on the four of us, the better."
Saunier said: "To boil water, just have a military lunch box.
In addition to the necessary things, try to pack as much mugwort as possible."
We know that Sonnier is most familiar with the situation in the wilderness and the forest.
She said that she has her own reasons for bringing what should be thrown away and pretended to be.
After packing, the group of four people walked south into the endless wilderness.
The main vegetation here is the cold-resistant Urax grass, and the dense grass forms meadows.
Under the meadows are silt and water, which is extremely muddy.
The shallow parts are knee-deep, and the deep parts are no one’s head.
Here Autumn comes early.
In early autumn, some grass has begun to turn yellow.
Looking around, it seems like you are in a sea of yellow-green grass.
There are no mountains, no forests, no roads in the distance, only endless stagnant water and grass.
The land is filled with putrid swamps and mire, and you have to cross one meadow after another.
You have to use a wooden stick to explore the path before every step.

If you accidentally fall into the mud, you will be in disaster.
The clear sky and fog on the wetland meadow are constantly changing.
It is common for the weather to change seven or eight times in a day.
Sometimes there is a heavy fog, and it is difficult to distinguish the north, west, east, west, and sometimes there is a scorching sun in the sky.
The heat is unstoppable and the sun is too hot.
There was no place to hide, and suddenly black clouds came over the sky again, and all kinds of rain started to fall.
There were thunder and lightning, and heavy rain mixed with hail fell overwhelmingly.
It rains and fogs, or there are cold wind showers that come and go, and the rivers swell when it rains, turning the wetland into a swamp.
It is most taboo to wade through the water in the swamp, so you have to endure it at a slightly higher place.
Wait for the rain to stop and the water to recede before setting off.
It's windy and rainy, cold and hot, hungry and full, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
There are countless hardships.
In order to seek wealth, the two old Taoists did not care about the hardships of the journey.
On the way, he talked about the sky and the earth, and kept bragging to the three of us about his experience of robbing tombs and collecting treasures.
He also promised Zhang Juwa: "Wait for this big job."
If it's done, I'll build you a house and land and get a wife."
Zhang Juwa was grateful.
Seeing that the old man couldn't walk anymore, he carried the master on his back, sinking in the mud every step of the way.
Even though he was strong and strong, he was still out of breath.
Like a cow.
After walking like this for a day, the red sun turned to the west, the temperature on the meadow cooled down, the wind stopped, and the wilderness looked vast.
The old Taoist said that if it kept like this, it would not be difficult to walk on the meadow for a few days.
On the ground, clouds of turbulent black mist emerged from the grass.
Zhang Juwa was extremely shocked: "Taoist Master, what's going on?"
The second Taoist priest said in surprise: "Oh my God, the evil spirit has covered the sky":
