Take Along A Spring

2The first thing Yang Fann saw were a few shacks, which were located in a small mountain valley. The roof of the shack had already collapsed halfway, and some animal excrement still remained in the shack. It didn't seem like a building from hundreds of years ago.    3

    

Even though they called them hunters, they were very likely to be poachers. If they were hunters from Qingshan Town area, they would not come to the West Mountain. Hunters in the mountains were very superstitious. Legends said that wherever ghosts roamed, unless they wanted to die, no one would take the risk.    

    

Only those unruly poachers, or those rich second generations who didn't follow the rules, would disregard the so-called folklore. Many of these people were quite self-centered; they didn't believe in ghosts or gods, didn't believe in karma, and were extremely arrogant.    

    

On the contrary, wherever the rumors spread, they would go to find out more about it.    

    

This was especially true for some of the so-called fuerdai, the boss, and their number two. It was as if there was nothing in this world that they were afraid of, as if they were fearless to the point that even the sun and moon dared to change it for a new day. If you told him where there were ghosts, not only would they not be afraid, they would even scream that they had to go.    

    

However, from the looks of these shacks, they didn't seem like the masterpieces of the rich second generations. The rich second generations usually had their own equipment when they entered the mountains, such as camping tents. There weren't many shacks.    

    

Whether it was a tent or a shack, it was not what Yang Fann was looking for. No matter how broken Mountain God Temple s were, they couldn't just build a shack.    

    

After passing by the cove, the slope began to increase, and they had already entered the range of the western mountains. A gust of mountain wind blew by, and a wave of water vapor assaulted their faces, as if there was a larger area of water in front of them.    

    

The Yunmeng Mountain was a primitive mountain, and there was a lot of water in the mountain. On the way there, there were gurgling water streams, gurgling water streams and even roaring mountain stream, so even though he felt that there was water in front of him, Yang Fann didn't think much of it.    

    

However, when Yang Fann climbed over a small ridge, what he saw stunned him. What appeared in front of him was not a small pond, nor did he think that it was a puddle. Instead, it was a sparkling lake!    

    

The lake was very big, at least in the area of Poplar Gully, there was no such large water area. According to Yang Fann's calculations, it should be at least a few hundred acres in size, and the lake should be clear and shining with a golden light under the sun. When the mountain winds blew, the lake's surface rippled, and if one did not consider one's state of mind, it was truly beautiful.    

    

Of course, the area of this lake was relatively large. If one had to compare this lake with those huge lakes like Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake, then this lake simply wasn't enough.    

    

Because he didn't know the name, Yang Fann gave it the name West Mountain Lake. It sounded quite like a substitute, comparable to West Lake or Tiny Mountain Lake.    

    

There were dragonflies flitting across the surface of the lake from time to time, and animals drinking water by the lake. In the lake, there were occasionally some wild ducks and other aquatic birds foraging for food. The scene was very beautiful, possessing the artistic conception of the animal world.    

    

Although the scenery of the West Mountain Lake was very beautiful, but in Yang Fann's eyes, it was only beautiful. If there wasn't a human, there would be many places like this on Earth. There were so many that people would be afraid of it if they saw it.    

    

Yang Fann was surprised because he saw a group of human buildings on the other side of the lake.    

    

Although it was called a human building complex, it was actually a piece of architectural relic.    

    

Under the cover of dense trees and bushes, a broken wall loomed, and whether it was a dilapidated earthen wall or a fallen beam, it was clear at a glance that it had been left behind by a human being, not a natural one.    

    

Based on the size of the range of the remains, Yang Fann determined that the probability of Mountain God Temple being here was not high. On the contrary, it was more likely that it was Western Mountain Village's remnants.    

    

West Mountain Village, according to Sixth Grandpa, there were hundreds of people and hundreds of people, but there were at least dozens of families. It was very possible for them to leave behind such a large piece of architectural remains.    

    

From where Yang Fann was standing to the ruins on the other side, he could only go around the West Mountain Lake if he wanted to.    

    

Even if Yang Fann was fast, in a situation where there was no road, it would still take at least one to two hours.    

    

Unfortunately, Yang Fann didn't have the skills. With a wave of his hand, an inflatable rubber dinghy suddenly appeared in front of him.    

    

The reason why Yang Fann didn't bring Comrade Bing Feng along was to make it convenient. Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as it was now. If he wanted to take something from the Space of Jade Pendant, it would be impossible for a smart woman like Bing Feng to conjure up a rubber dinghy.    

    

If it was a normal tourist area, it would definitely be a good chance to pick up a girl. But to pick up a girl in a primitive mountain like Yunmeng Mountain, it was as easy as hanging himself from a dead star, and he had to be tired of living.    

    

Even if Yang Fann's physique was strong, he was not afraid of ordinary beasts, nor was he afraid of demons or ghosts, and he had never thought of doing primitive activities with any woman in the deep mountains like Yunmeng Mountain.    

    

Ever since he was young, he had been constantly telling Yang Fann to be respectful to Mountain, not only did he not defend against wild beasts and ghosts' attacks, he was even shamelessly sneering at them. It was simply an insult to Mountain, no matter what others did to Yang Fann, he would not do that.    

    

Soon, the inflatable rubber dinghy was filled with air again. Yang Fann jumped on the rubber dinghy, collected Black Bear, Xue'er, Monkey Head, and Monkey Head back into his Space of Jade Pendant, and rowed the rubber dinghy towards the other side.    

    

There was no helping it, the rubber dinghy was limited, the black bear and Xue'er were too big, they couldn't even hold them. The monkey was too restless, Yang Fann got annoyed when he saw them jumping up and down, so he put them in too.    

    

Yang Fann's rubber dinghy was most likely the first rubber dinghy to appear in the West Mountain Lake. Even when the West Mountain Village was still alive, it was impossible for them to get a rubber dinghy. At most, it would only be a small wooden boat.    

    

It was the first time a rubber dinghy had appeared in the West Mountain Lake, which made all the animals curious and alarmed. It was very likely that this was the first time they had seen a rubber dinghy in their lives, and also the first time they had seen a two-legged monster like a human.    

    

It wasn't that they hadn't seen two-legged animals before, but monkeys and humans had similar bodies, but monkeys with fur on their bodies and no clothes on, which made them very different from humans. This made the animals that saw Yang Fann very surprised, they curiously looked at Yang Fann, they were afraid of being attacked, and they all moved away from the lake.    

    

Yang Fann had no intention of provoking those curious animals in the distance. Right now, his focus was all on the Mountain God Temple in the West Mountain, and he had no intention of taking a few photos and sending it to his friends.
