Chapter 105 Picking Equipment
The existing ancient osmanthus in China is far more than these three plants in Hanzhong.
However, there were only these three ancient osmanthus in the Three Kingdoms period of the Qin and Han Dynasties. The other ones, the oldest, are just a "Tang Gui" 1,500 years ago, that is, the osmanthus tree planted in the Tang Dynasty. It is located in Kang County, Gansu Province, and is also not close to Nie Yun's hometown Ludong Province.
In addition, Tang Gui also survived in Guilin, Guangxi and Nanchang, Jiangxi.
As for the "Song Gui" and "Ming Gui" with a history of less than a thousand years, there are more. The osmanthus trees with a hundred years of history are widely distributed all over the country.
If there is a chance, Nie Yun has to go to these places separately.
Old trees and ancient stakes are different from antique calligraphy and painting. Antique calligraphy and paintings can be moved. Even the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Qin Mausoleum in Shaanxi can be divided and sold. It's very easy to find ancient antiques. Just take a walk to the Palace Museum.
And these old tree stumps can't be moved.
Where it is planted, it is difficult to dig it out and transplant it to another place. For example, Hangui in Hanzhong City has a diameter of two or three meters. The ginkgo tree in Qiao County is larger in diameter. This kind of old tree can't be transplanted at all, let alone concentrated in one place.
Nie Yun wanted to find old piles and absorb the aura in them. He had no choice but to visit the north and the hometown of these old trees in person.
Of course, now Nie Yun, who didn't hear where there were ancient trees, immediately ran to absorb the aura.
After all, many ancient trees, like the thousand-year-old ginkgo tree in Qiao County, are old. They have been admired for thousands of years and are also stained with a trace of spiritual surnames. The aura contained in it is at least blue, or even purple. With the cyan aura level in Nie Yun's current Lingmu pupil, even if he sees those ancient trees, he can't absorb the aura in them.
You can only find some old piles with good spiritual surnames for 30 or 50 years, suitable for bonsai, absorb the cyan aura in them, gradually accumulate, improve the aura content and level of the aura in your spiritual wood pupil, and wait for the level to reach, and then visit those thousand-year-old trees... Step by step, you can't be in a hurry!
After breakfast, I began to drive to Chengdu. There was a traffic jam on the highway for a while. It was not until after 8 o'clock in the evening that the Hummer arrived in Chengdu. It went down from the exit of the highway and drove into the urban area of Chengdu.
At this time in Chengdu, at the beginning of the lanterns, it is a scene of a modern metropolis.
Speaking of which, Chengdu is also one of the ancient capitals of China. Although it is not as glorious as Xi'an, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, its historical heritage is not inferior.
Like the well-known Shu Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms period, the capital was Chengdu; among the five generations and ten kingdoms, the Later Shu regime was also the capital of Chengdu. Other dynasties have also served as the capital of the vassal state and vassal state for many times. Although it has never become the political center of the national surname, many dynasties are the top super metropolises in the country.
After the reform and opening up, Chengdu is one of the first cities to pilot a market economy. With the opening up of finance to the outside world, it has entered the list of first-tier cities in China. On this point, Xi'an, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, cannot be compared with it.
When the car is driving in Chengdu, Nie Yun feels that the modern atmosphere of the city is better than its historical heritage!
"It's in Chengdu, Weizi. Shall we go shopping in Chengdu first, or contact Sister Zhuang directly?" While driving the car in a hurry, Nie Yun asked Liu Junwei.
The time set with Zhuang Yawen is to arrive in Chengdu on the fifth day of the Chinese New Year.
It's the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, one day in advance, but now it's past eight o'clock in the evening, and it's not much earlier.
"Where is the fun in Chengdu? It seems that when you arrive in Chengdu, just take a look at the giant pandas, right? Where can I find the giant panda at this point... I'll check it again..." Liu Junwei said and offered his big magic weapon - the tablet computer.
"Dufu Cottage, Wuhou Temple, Dujiangyan..." Liu Junwei talked about several scenic spots one after another, but none of them were suitable for visiting at night.
It's like Du Fu Cottage... It's just a hut, just a celebrity effect. Du Fu was poor all his life. "The Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind" was written by him. His old man's thatched house was topped by the autumn wind. In a few years, he died of poverty and illness. His thatched house was estimated to have been ruined long ago. Nie Yun even suspected that Du Fu's grass hall was built by the local political axe after Du Fu became famous.
After all, the reinforced concrete building is only 70 years of property rights. A hut can be preserved for thousands of years, and you won't believe it even if you kill Nie Yun.
As for the Wuhou Temple... The cemetery of Wuhou Zhuge Liang is in Hanzhong, near Dingjun Mountain, where he made his northern expedition. The ancestral hall was naturally located in Chengdu, the capital of Shu and Han at that time. Nie Yun's interest in Wuhou Temple is not great.
In addition, Dujiangyan, an ancient water conservancy project, reflects the superb wisdom of the ancient people and has nothing to do with Nie Yun.
From this point of view, there is no place to play in Chengdu.
"Ne Zi," Liu Junwei turned off the tablet computer and came to Nie Yun's ear. "I heard that there are quite a lot of nightclubs and other entertainment venues in Chengdu. Why don't we go to find a few MMs? Sichuan girls are famous all over the country. Hot girls are spicy. I guess it's quite delicious!"
"If you don't want to be licked by a bear after entering the mountain, just stay obediently. Nightclub, don't think about it!" Nie Yun talked to Liu Junwei angrily, took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhuang Yawen's phone, "Hey, Sister Zhuang, I'm Nie Yun. Weizi and I have arrived in Chengdu and just got off the highway."
Nie Yun talked about his position with Zhuang Yawen.
The guest came to Chengdu at his convenience. This is Zhuang Yawen's home court. It is better to follow Zhuang Yawen's arrangement for food, accommodation and entertainment. If you don't talk to Zhuang Yawen when you come, it's a little impolite to act without permission.
"Have you arrived? Wait a minute, I'll pick you up right away!"
Zhuang Yawen said and hung up the phone.
Since Zhuang Yawen came to pick up her people immediately, Nie Yun simply parked the car on the side of the road. She hasn't entered the city center yet. She parked casually by the roadside and would not be fined.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, a white limited edition Land Rover guard squeaked next to Nie Yun's Hummer. With a click, the door opened, and a woman in a white autumn and winter casual dress, high horse boots, long hair shawl, and a little white cap on her head came out. It was Zhuang Yawen.
"Sister Zhuang!"
At this time, Nie Yun and others also came down.
"Oh, Su Yi, Xiao Zhen, are you coming too?"
Seeing that Su Yi and Tian Zhen actually followed Nie Yun and Liu Junwei, Zhuang Yawen's face immediately showed surprise.
This visit to Lan was originally a whim of Zhuang Yawen and her friend. Obviously, there were fewer and more dangerous people to enter the mountain. That's why Zhuang Yawen asked Nie Yun and Liu Junwei to come here. However, the four people are barely enough. If Su Yi and Tian Zhen are added, it will be better if there are more people and more people.
"Sister Zhuang, Su Yi and Xiao Zhen also came over. There will be no trouble when entering the mountain, will there be no trouble?" Nie Yun smiled at Zhuang Yawen.
"Of course not. We can chat with a few more girls to relieve boredom. My friend is a workaholic. I guess he only cares about taking photos when he enters the mountain. I'm worried that I'm too bored to be alone. Now it's good that Su Yi and Xiao Zhen are here!" Zhuang Yawen said.
"I can't help it. I just got along with Su Yi, and Nie Yun also just hooked up with Tian Zhen. It's like glue. It's really inseparable. That's why I came together. What's the trouble? Sister Zhuang, you should take care of it too!"
Liu Junwei said with a hippie smile.
"Ha ha, if you really think there are too many people, kick you and Nie Yun out and let Su Yi and Xiao Zhen stay!" Zhuang Yawen said with a smile.
Seeing the charcoal ball that followed Tian Zhen to get off the bus, Zhuang Yawen's eyes lit up: "Is this a charcoal ball? It's so big..."
"Wow!" When Tanqiu heard Zhuang Yawen say something about himself, he quickly stood up, stepped on the ground with four claws gently, barked twice, and his voice was urned, showing his strength.
"There are charcoal balls, and the danger of entering the mountain this time is much smaller. In addition, I have also prepared two rescue dogs, mainly to prevent getting lost. Safety measures in this regard should be sufficient. All right, Nie Yun and Wei Zi, find a place to eat first. After dinner, stay at my house for one night. Let's go to Yunnan tomorrow!" Zhuang Yawen said.
Several people got into the car. Zhuang Yawen took Nie Yun and others to find a restaurant for dinner first, and then drove several people to her villa in the suburbs.
The car drove into the yard of Tian Zhen's villa. Nie Yun and others just got out of the car, especially when the charcoal ball just came down, the two big wolf dogs in the yard immediately barked.
"Come in. There is usually no one at home. There are many guest rooms. You can choose two rooms later."
Zhuang Yawen opened the door of the villa and led Nie Yun and other people into the house.
Maybe because of living alone, the living room of Zhuang Yawen's villa is very simple, with only a sofa and a small coffee table.
On the closet close to the wall, there were some blue and white porcelain bottles and jade ornaments. After entering the living room, Nie Yun was immediately attracted by these things.
After casually scanning these porcelain bottles and jade ornaments, Nie Yun suddenly felt that there was a faint golden breath in these porcelain bottles and small ornaments, which quickly integrated into his left eye. Nie Yun couldn't help but move his mind. Unfortunately, when he stared at these things again, he didn't have any special reaction.
"Huh... It seems that the power of my left eye has not reached the critical point of opening..." Nie Yun thought to himself and picked up a fist-sized jade ornament. This jade ornament is a unicorn. The jade quality is not good, but the craftsmanship is unique. The impurities are on the jade unicorn, just like a naturally formed pattern, lifelike.
"These jades at home are all of the best. Those antiques are also imitations of the modern Republic of China.
Zhuang Yawen first took a drink for Liu Junwei and others. When she saw Nie Yun looking at the jade ornament, she said with a smile.
"The real boutique jade is locked in the company's safe. If there is a chance, I can take you to see it," Zhuang Yawen said. "In fact, the main collection in my home is not these jade antiques, but some field equipment. This time we are going to the mountain, and we may encounter black bears. I'll take everyone to the collection room later to choose a few pieces of equipment!"
