The road in the Shennongjia forest area follows the mountain.

In ancient times, the landscape was particularly complex due to the combined effects of orogeny and glacial erosion.

In geology, dissolution landforms, dissolution erosion landforms, denudation erosion landforms, and accumulation landforms all occupy here.

This road formed by the mountains is naturally bent and rugged.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, several provincial roads were repaired, the traffic conditions were much better than before, and the scenic spots were also built, but many remote villages can still only be reached by relying on the two legs of the mountain people.

Since the Hejia hunting ground gradually got out of control ten years ago, the local ** had to abandon the tourism industry under the warning of the He family.

In the past few years, in the entire Shennongjia forest area, except for the local mountain people, outsiders will basically not come.

And more than 20,000 mountain households, most of the young people have gone to the city to work, and the young people who did not go to work outside have also been married by the He family and bought a house in the big city to settle down.

Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer mountain people in Shennongjia, and many villages are simply empty.

Most of these empty villages are naturally formed, and people have gone to the city.

There were two uninhabited villages, which were unnatural, and the villagers were gone overnight.

One of the villages, called Wadi Village.

In the middle of the night last night, three people, two men and one woman, lived in Ganhe Village.

Miao Xueping, Wei Xingshan, Zhou Lingshi.

The village is not big, there were only more than ten families originally, and if it were normal, these three guests would really have no place to live.

Now the residence is naturally not a problem, just live casually.

Accommodation is not a problem, but food is a problem.

This trip is an internal affair of the Hunting Gate, not a formal hunting business of the Strange Creature Research Association, and there is no supporting logistical support.

And the incident happened suddenly, and it came in a hurry, and the Su family's old house had no preparations in advance.

Wei Xingshan and Zhou Ren did bring some field military rations in their backpacks, but this was used for emergency use when they went back to the mountains to hunt, and they all lived in the village at this time.

Zhou Lingshi followed Lin Shuo and them all the way, and at first he really thought that the master was going to teach him how to do it, and then he slowly figured out the taste.

Hey, what kind of art went into the mountains to learn art, to put it bluntly, he came to serve Miao Xueping.

Zhou Lingshi didn't have any ideas about this, this Miao Xueping was the master's aunt, and she had to serve when she should be served.

But it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, how can she cook without ingredients?

If it were to be changed to normal times, the ingredients would not be a problem, and this would have gone into the mountains, and he would be a seven-inch capable hunter at all, and it would be the same as playing with a roe deer to hunt a pheasant.

But the master had been instructed before that he was not allowed to enter the mountain until he returned.

That's going to be hard.

Zhou Lingshi walked around the village with Wei Xingshan that morning.

I searched from house to house, and there was still some grain in the rice jars of each house.

There are some vegetables in the fields at the entrance of the village, but there is no shortage of green onions, ginger and garlic, especially those large white radish, which are really good.

It seems that it can barely deal with one or two meals, but unfortunately it is not fishy.

Right now, Zhou Lingshi is picking vegetables with turnips, and Wei Xingshan is on the side on a satellite phone.

Zhou Lingshi saw that Wei Xingshan finished talking on the phone, and asked: "I said senior brother, you said that our master will come back this time, will you remember to bring some meat?" This is all vegetarian, one or two meals is okay, but according to the amount of food for the two of us, it will not be able to move the day after tomorrow." ”

"Who knows. Wei Xingshan shook his head, and then said, "Senior brother, don't just worry about eating first. The peer alliance under Kunlun Mountain can be lively in these two days. Shi Niang called me just now, hey, guess what, this time the nine families of Hunting Gate, who can go up. ”

"Who else could it be. Zhou Lingshi said, "Isn't it the original six families, plus the He family and the Jin family, this last family is either surnamed Tang or Zhongbei." ”

"The first eight are true, but this last one, you really guessed wrong. Wei Xingshan said with a smile, "This last one should be surnamed Chu." ”

"Chu, is it the Chu family in the Andes Mountains of South America?" asked Zhou Lingshi.

"You kid can. Wei Xingshan was surprised, "I know this." ”

"Don't you know, this one is strong in the seven-inch family. Zhou Lingshi said, "The reputation was not as good as the Tang and He families before, and if it was really higher than the threshold offense and defense, this Chu family did have a chance." ”

"It's just a chance. Wei Xingshan shook his head and said, "The threshold of this year's Peer Alliance is offensive and defensive, Chu Hongyi of the Chu family, according to Shi Niang, that way is simply crushing, and He Yongchang, who is also an offensive identity with him, has not gone through three moves in his hands. ”

"Huh?" Zhou Lingshi said in surprise, "Then the He family is not nine inches?"

"I almost didn't make it. Wei Xingshan said, "Fortunately, the threshold offensive and defensive competition system of this year's Equality League, it was a double-elimination system at the beginning, He Yongchang came out of the loser's group, caught the last train, and got the qualification to defend the ring." ”

"It's just a qualification to defend the fight?

"You know that you don't care about the format. Wei Xingshan glanced at Zhou Lingshi, "This threshold offense and defense is to first determine the nine defenders, and the seven nominated by our master are automatically qualified to defend the ring, and there are still two places, so we have to compare them first."

In the past two days, Chu Hongyi and He Yongchang have won, and together with Shi Niang and Zhang Jin, they have become the defenders.

In addition to these two people, the nine attackers who performed well in the previous battle and had no problem with the family hunting evaluation and inheritance tasting were qualified to attack.

On the following day, each of the nine defenders will take the stage on behalf of the clan to take on the challenge of the attackers.

Hold it, this is the qualification of nine inches, and if you can't hold it, the attack will be nine inches. ”

"It's too complicated. Zhou Lingshi shook his head, "Can you pick up the important ones?"

"Hey, in a word, tomorrow, the threshold attack and defense will officially begin. Wei Xingshan said, "I estimate that no one will challenge Chu Hongyi and He Yongchang, after all, they have played a round and know the depths." On the contrary, the other seven defenders are estimated to be very busy, especially Miao Xiaoxian and our master mother, these two are relatively weak. ”

"Oh. Zhou Lingshi nodded, "The person who called you just now is the master mother?"

"That's right. ”

"Does she sound nervous, then?"

"A little nervous. Wei Xingshan touched the back of his head, "Don't you ask where my master went, I guess I want my master to comfort her a few words." ”

"So where did our master go?"

"He. Wei Xingshan pursed his lips, "I went back to my old business." ”

"Re-copying the old business?" Zhou Lingshi didn't understand, "Isn't our master a hunter?

"You don't understand. Wei Xingshan smiled, "Our master used to be a teacher in a mountain village, and when I first met him, he was teaching in rural Guangxi." ”

"Oh, does that mean he left Lord Ma alone and went back to school to teach?" Zhou Lingshi asked.

"That's about it. Wei Xingshan nodded.

"Okay, I'm a Sichuan chef who worships a mountain village teacher as a master, one of the two teachers is the leader of an international organization, and the other is a Nordic princess. Zhou Lingshi dusted off the soil on the radish and sighed.

"Heroes don't ask where they come from, I was a mercenary before. Wei Xingshan shrugged his shoulders.

"No, what is the old man doing to teach?" Zhou Lingshi raised his head and asked, "He stopped doing this business in Shennongjia?"

"He's not doing something. Wei Xingshan said.

"Why didn't I see that?"

"Nonsense, do we hunters want to collect information before hunting?"

"Of course that's right. ”

"Then how do you gather intelligence?" Wei Xingshan asked again.

"Ask someone. Zhou Lingshi replied.

But there are 20,000 households in Shennongjia, dozens of towns and hundreds of villages, scattered in the mountainous area of more than 3,000 square kilometers. If you go door-to-door to ask people, you have to ask for what kind of life?" Wei Xingshan asked rhetorically.

"So what to do?"

"So, you have to go to a centralized point of information. Wei Xingshan asked, "Just stand there and ask slowly." ”

"A centralized point of information?"

"Oh, I don't think you're really suitable for being a hunter, so you can be a cook in the future. Wei Xingshan rolled his eyes, "In this mountainous area, where people are relatively dense, is there only a school?"

"It seems like that's the case. ”

"The children in the school come from the ten miles and eight towns of Shennongjia, and they go to school in the classroom during the day and go home at night, is it equivalent to the information and intelligence points scattered throughout Shennongjia?"

"That's right!"

"So if you want to find out the news, is it the best school?"

"I see. Zhou Lingshi nodded, "So our master went to the school to teach." ”

"It can't be a primary school yet, otherwise the child is too young to ask and understand, so he went to a middle school this time. Wei Xingshan added, "Of course, I didn't really teach, I just taught for a few days, and I came back after finding out the news." ”

"Then when he comes back, will he bring back a few catties of meat?"

"Then who knows to go. ”
