After waiting for so long, Apo finally walked out of the sheepfold, Wu Zhongyuan rubbed his hands excitedly, for fear of alarming them, and he didn't dare to get too close, so he could only follow cautiously from a distance.

But Apo didn't go far, and stopped all morning, only walking around the sheepfold.

"It seems a bit out of business. Zhao Ying said with a smile.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head helplessly, the two of them didn't do anything else this morning, just hiding behind the haystack and peeking at Apo playing hooligan.

"It's noon, let's go, let's go back to dinner. Zhao Ying said.

"Go back and eat, I'll keep watch here. Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand.

Zhao Ying nodded, got up and left.

Not long after Zhao Ying left, Apo also took Xiao Jianniang home, leaving Wu Zhongyuan to sit under the haystack and be depressed.

It didn't take long for Yao Zhongyi to come, deliver food to Wu Zhongyuan, and resign to him by the way, Yao Zhongyi had been on leave for a long time, and he had to go back to school.

Yao Zhongyi just left, two herdsmen came, these days there are always herdsmen come to Mao Sui to recommend themselves, to be precise, Mao Sui recommended sheep, they all thought that Wu Zhongyuan and Zhao Ying came to look for hybrid sheep.

This is also Wu Zhongyuan's rhetoric and reason for staying here, there must be a reasonable excuse for staying in other people's villages.

Wu Zhongyuan naturally won't leave here, and sent them to find Zhao Ying, the reason why the herdsmen recommended themselves so enthusiastically is to blame Zhao Ying for acting too high-profile, this guy lives in Yao's house and doesn't want to go, buy a computer for Yao's family today, and change a refrigerator for Yao's family tomorrow, so that the whole village knows that she is very rich.

In the afternoon, Apo wanted to take a nap as usual, the little couple slept in the sheepfold, and Wu Zhongyuan stood guard for them in the distance.

According to Yao Zhongyi, Apo is mostly out of the herd in the morning when the sheep are out of the circle, and generally does not go far in the afternoon, but Wu Zhongyuan is not at ease, and he also guards outside in the afternoon, and does not return to Yao's house for dinner until the sun goes down.

The sheep's night vision ability is very average, and they generally do not leave the circle at night, but when Wu Zhongyuan came back from dinner, he found that only the little ewe was left in the sheepfold, and Apo was no longer there.

Wu Zhongyuan was instantly frightened into a cold sweat, and he looked left and right, but there was no trace of Abo.

Eagerly looking around the sheepfold, no, big night, where did this guy go?

was anxious, so he ran back to Yao's house and called Zhao Ying to come out and look for him.

Zhao Ying took out a telescope from her bag, "Don't worry, I have night vision binoculars here." ”

"Why didn't you take it out earlier?" Wu Zhongyuan took the telescope and turned around and ran out.

Climb up the haystack and look around with a telescope, but this telescope is complicated and has to be tuned, he can't.

After Zhao Ying followed, she adjusted the telescope, looked around slowly, and when she looked in the southwest direction, Zhao Ying seemed to have found something, and after a slight adjustment, she handed the telescope to Wu Zhongyuan, "There." ”

Wu Zhongyuan took the telescope and looked at the southwest, and through the telescope, he found Apo, who was moving in the southwest direction, not walking slowly, but running fast.

"Where is it going?" Wu Zhongyuan asked eagerly.

Zhao Ying didn't answer, because she couldn't answer Wu Zhongyuan's question, and only he knew where Apo was going.

"What do these numbers mean?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again, there were several columns of numbers on the lens of the telescope, some were fixed numbers, and some were constantly changing.

"The bearing and distance, and the speed at which the object is moving," Ms. Zhao said, "is now five kilometers away." ”

"You stay here, I'll chase after you. Wu Zhongyuan slid down the haystack and ran southwest.

Wu Zhongyuan has night vision, Zhao Ying does not, and when she comes down from the haystack, Wu Zhongyuan has disappeared into the darkness.

Wu Zhongyuan performed light skills and ran with all his might, it is unknown where Apo is going, but one thing is certain, that is, since Apo is running, it shows that its purpose is very clear, and it is going directly to a certain place.

In the past few days, the moon has been lost, the surroundings are very dark, and the night vision ability cannot see very far, so every few miles, Wu Zhongyuan will pick up the telescope to take a look at it to determine the general direction of Apo's movement, and judging from the route of Apo's movement, its destination is likely to be the three peaks in the distance.

After running for more than ten miles, Wu Zhongyuan stopped, and the motorcycle he had abandoned before was still under the hillside.

After thinking about it, he continued to run, not riding a motorcycle, worried that the sound of the motorcycle would alarm Apo, and another reason was that he was not sure if there was any positioning device installed on the motorcycle by those people.

There were not only the three peaks in the distance, but also some smaller dirt mountains, and after more than ten minutes, Awa disappeared behind one of the small dirt mountains.

Seeing this situation, Wu Zhongyuan accelerated and ran, rushed to the high place of the earth mountain, found that Ah Po was not around, and looked for it again with a telescope, only to see that Ah Po had run to the foot of the northernmost peak.

The distance between the two was about five kilometers, and he had only known that goats could run faster than sheep, but he didn't expect them to run so fast.

When Awa reached the foot of the mountain, he began to turn westward, and although there were not many plants and trees on the three peaks, there were also shrubs and weeds, and before he could chase them, Awa's figure had disappeared to the west side of the northernmost peak.

Wu Zhongyuan exerted his light skills to the extreme, running desperately, and at this time he was able to confirm that the destination of Apo's trip was where the clue was.

Ten minutes later, Wu Zhongyuan rushed to the foot of the north peak out of breath, and was just about to turn to the west, but found that Apo appeared on a piece of bluestone not far away.

The location of that bluestone is definitely not the destination of Apo's trip, this guy must have done what he wanted to do, and then turned around.

At the same time that Wu Zhongyuan saw Abo, Apo also saw him, Wu Zhongyuan has been taking care of it these days, so Apo is not very wary of him, and after seeing him, he also wagged his stubby little tail at him, and then jumped off the bluestone and ran back.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't follow Apo anymore, this guy must have gone home.

There was a time difference of more than ten minutes between Apo disappearing and he rushing over, and in these ten minutes, Apo must have gone somewhere and done something, and what he had to determine at this time was where Apo had gone and what he had done.

With Apo's moving speed, it can go to almost all areas on the west side of the mountain in ten minutes, and it is extremely unlikely that it will be found in such a large area.

It took half an hour to look around, but I didn't find anything unusual in the vicinity, and there was no deep pit or cave.

He expected nothing to come of it, after all, he didn't even know what he was looking for.

The mood on the return trip can be imagined, depressed, regretful, if not go back for dinner, it would be good, he could follow Apo to find the clues he needed.

In addition to being depressed, I was more confused, what did Apo do here at night?

After these days of contact, he also has a little understanding of Apo's temperament, Apo is very smart, it will even play dead when it encounters danger, but its IQ does not exceed the limit of goat's IQ, at least this guy doesn't know that playing dead in the slaughterhouse is actually useless.

In addition, Apo is not the kind of goat with a high heart, if he is a human, he must be an old fritter with a thick skin and interests first.

This kind of sheep must be unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, and if there is no benefit, it will never run out at night.

Wu Zhongyuan's first thought was food, could it be that there is any food on this mountain that Apo particularly likes?

However, he soon denied this idea for three reasons, one is that Apo only stayed on the mountain for ten minutes, and in such a short time, he could not eat a few bites of the best food. The second is that Apo has been enjoying the treatment of a sick child recently, and he eats concentrate, so he should not be hungry. The last reason is that Po's mind is not on food at all, it is the season for goats to come into heat, and he spends his days thinking about playing hooligans.

I can't think of why, I can only give up, this trip is in vain, not only in vain, but also in negative effects, because Po knows that he is following behind, and if he comes back in the future, Po will be more cautious.

Wu Zhongyuan did not go back directly, but made a detour to the east bank of the river, and the middle-aged Taoist had stayed under the tree for a short time that day, and the burden that this person carried was probably hidden there.

This is an aspen tree, it is very common in this area, the aspen tree has a great characteristic, this kind of tree does not have many branches, the body of the tree is relatively tall, this aspen tree has a hug thickness, there are twenty or thirty meters high.

Because he came to look for it purposefully, Wu Zhongyuan's first thought was whether the burden would be hidden by the middle-aged Taoist on the tree, and when he looked up, he vaguely saw something hanging on the branch of the tree in the high place, and because there were many branches around, he couldn't see it very really.

Wu Zhongyuan can climb trees, but it is the first time he has climbed so high, more than 20 meters, which is equivalent to the height of a seven-story building.

I went down to the ground, opened the bag and checked the contents inside, and the first thing I saw was the iron ball that Mr. Li said, unscrewed it, and inside was a white jade.

In addition to the iron ball, there was a change of clothes in the baggage, as well as a few pieces of gold jewelry and some cash.

The things in the baggage are quite miscellaneous, among which there are three small bottles, one is a jade bottle, and the other two are porcelain bottles, looking at the appearance of the things that are old, shake it, it is filled with granular things, pull out the stopper of one of them, smell it, there is a smell of medicine.

In addition to these, there are two other books in the baggage, both of which are modern books, one is "Rare Metal Metallurgy" and the other is "Metal Exploration", both of which are worn, and the middle-aged Taoist should have read them often.

After inspecting it, put it all in your backpack and go back.

Back in the village, Zhao Ying was anxiously waiting, and when she saw Wu Zhongyuan coming back, she hurriedly greeted her, "It's been a long time since the sheep came back, where did you go?"

"I went to the other side of the river. Wu Zhongyuan said.

Wu Zhongyuan had mentioned this matter to her before, so Zhao Ying knew what he was looking for, "Did you find it?"

Wu Zhongyuan nodded.

Zhao Ying didn't ask what was in the baggage, but pointed to Apo and asked, "Did you find the clue you need?"

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and briefly told her what had happened before.

After listening to Wu Zhongyuan's speech, Zhao Ying was also puzzled, "In your opinion, why did it go there?"

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head again, "I'm not a sheep, how do I know what it's thinking?"

Zhao Ying was willing to help, and said several possibilities for Wu Zhongyuan's reference, but what she said was what Wu Zhongyuan had thought of and ruled out before.

Finally, Zhao Ying thought of another possibility, "Is there any plant on that mountain that has similar medicinal effects to Viagra?"

Wu Zhongyuan frowned at her.

"What do you see I'm doing? You see it's not idle for the past few days, and it's normal for it to have kidney deficits. Zhao Ying said with a smile.

Wu Zhongyuan naturally wouldn't believe Zhao Ying's speculation, "Okay, it's not early, go back to sleep." ”

Zhao Ying smiled, took the binoculars, and turned to leave.

Wu Zhongyuan slept next to the haystack as usual.

He got up early the next day and continued to wait and observe, but the results of the observation made him frown, the little ewe had not been very close to Apo before, but for some reason, his attitude towards him was obviously much better today......
