After arranging the hotel, the tour guide said to Wu Song: "Mr. Wu, this is your voluntary abandonment of the ride back, I can't refund you this fare." The tour guide was very happy, Wu Song set a room, and she also had a lot of commissions.

Wu Song nodded, "Then you don't have to retreat." ”

Several tomb robbers also followed the tour group back to Dali, and Wu Song got on the bus to get off the mountain when he got off the bus, and the hotel was not far away. Wu Song walked in, waited for the check-in procedures to be completed, opened the door and looked at it, and felt that the 600 yuan was really wronged, and this condition was really not flattering.

After a brief dinner at the hotel, when the sky began to turn dark, Wu Song left the hotel and came to Yunchi. He was afraid that those tomb robbers would enter the cloud pool before him, and if they were allowed to find the tomb first, maybe his chance would be broken, so Wu Song wanted to visit the cloud pool in advance.

Coming to the place where the tomb robbers took pictures, Wu Song took out the water mirrors and waterproof flashlights he had bought in advance, and was about to choose a place to jump into the cloud pool when he suddenly heard footsteps nearby.

Wu Song pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and was sure that it was the sound of footsteps. Moreover, he could hear that this person was definitely a master, especially in light body kung fu.

Following the sound, Wu Song used his body to chase after him, only to see not far away, a vague figure sometimes spread its wings like a big peng, sometimes like a leopard leaping into a tiger, and the rugged mountain road was like walking on the ground for him.

Wu Song followed closely behind, keeping a distance of about thirty meters from this person.

The two of them ran one after the other for more than twenty minutes, and at this time they had reached a height of nearly three thousand meters above sea level. And the person in front of him didn't mean to stop. Wu Song showed his body while looking at the mountain peak under the night, this is the highest peak of the Cangshan Mountain Range, more than 5,000 meters above sea level, the mountain has begun to have snow, and people are inaccessible.

Could it be to climb this mountain, Wu Song thought as he quickened his pace.

Fortunately, when this man was at an altitude of four thousand meters, he finally stopped, he looked around, and after making sure that there was no one nearby, he slowed down and looked around.

At this time, the surrounding area is already covered with snow and the temperature is extremely low. However, Wu Song's body was full of true qi, and although his clothes were thin, he didn't feel the chill at all.

The man searched around for a moment, stood for a moment, as if thinking about something, then looked up and sped up again.

I still have to climb!" Wu Song muttered to himself, and hurriedly used his kung fu to step on the snow without a trace, following closely behind. At this height, there is no vegetation to cover it, and the snow reflects the moonlight, making it as bright as day. All Wu Song didn't dare to follow too closely, but hung far behind, keeping a distance of fifty or sixty meters.

The higher the man went, the slower his speed became, but in the end he became like a normal mountaineering, climbing up step by step.

It was only when he reached an altitude of nearly five thousand meters that the man stopped again, looking for something among the nearby rocks.

Through the moonlight, Wu Song could see it clearly, this was an old man, about sixty or seventy years old.

Wu Song secretly thought that if there was such a method, at least it had to be the strength of the middle stage of the Ming Dao, Wu Song didn't expect to meet the master of Dali so soon.

Wu Song secretly guessed that this person should not be in the same group as the group of tomb robbers, and judging from the place he was looking for, he should be looking for some kind of plant. Because some precious botanical herbs are grown in the crevices of mountains and rocks at higher altitudes, or between cliffs.

The old man had been searching for more than twenty minutes in the area, and then turned elsewhere, this time on the side of the mountain and cliff.

As soon as the old man turned to the top of the cliff, Wu Song flew to the edge and stood on the edge.

But the old man flickered and moved between the cliffs for a while, but to no avail.

At this moment, Wu Song and the old man's eyes were focused on the air not far away, and a vulture was hovering nearby.

The old man looked left and right, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and his face showed a look of ecstasy, and he reached out and took a handful between the cracks in the rocks, and a plant with a fiery red fruit was held in his hand. But just as he was about to put the plant in the cloth bag he carried with him, the vulture had already erected the feathers on its shoulders and made a 'hissing' sound in its throat, obviously threatening the old man.

The old man looked at the plant in his hand, and then at the vulture, he knew that this vulture was also eyeing the plant, and if he took it, he would definitely be attacked by it.

If it was on flat ground, the old man would not be afraid at all. But now it is hanging on the cliff, and if you are not careful, you may fall down and end up with no bones.

However, after a brief struggle of thoughts, the old man resolutely put the plant in his cloth bag.

When the vulture saw it, it immediately became angry, and its cry became louder, and as soon as it retracted its wings, its body more than one meter long galloped towards the old man like an arrow from a string.

Adult vultures weigh about eight to ten kilograms, but this vulture is obviously the largest of its kind. is only one and a half meters long, and weighs about nearly thirty pounds. The mouth is long and sharp, and if you are pecked, you are afraid that a large piece of flesh will be torn off.

However, this old man is not good at stubble, how can he let a beast snatch what he has in his hands. He kicked the cliff, leaping three or four meters away like a dexterous ape, dodging the vulture's attack.

The old man also picked up a few pieces of rubble from between the rocks and threw them at the vulture.

Unfortunately, due to the fact that he was on a cliff, the flying stones lost their head, and none of them hit the vultures.

This angered the bird of prey even more, and after circling for a week, it attacked the old man again.

After a few rounds of one-man bird fighting, the old man gradually couldn't hold on, and was pecked on his arm, although the wound was not big, but at such an altitude, if it could not be treated in time, it was likely that the frostbite would be even worse.

The old man had no intention of fighting, and just wanted to leave the cliff and go to the flat ground as soon as possible.

It's a pity that the vulture didn't give him the slightest chance, and kept harassing the old man on the side. The old man couldn't dodge, and his pocket was pecked off and he fell into the bottomless abyss below.

The old man's beard was about to rise and began to curse the vulture.

But in such an environment, even if the old man has a skill, he can't give full play to three or four percent. Seeing the danger everywhere, there is a danger of falling off the cliff at any time.

Wu Song saw it in his eyes, reached out and grabbed a piece of gravel, and with a flick of his arm, the rubble turned into a streamer and flew towards the vulture. The vulture sensed the danger and made an emergency dodge in the air, dodging the rubble.

But it didn't expect that two more gravels hit it, and this time it was not as lucky as just now. A snowball hits the base of its wings, and a snowball hits its head.

The vulture, which had been hit twice, planted its head down, but the beast was fierce enough to persist and hover upwards.

The old man took the opportunity to climb up from the cliff, and the vulture, as if he was also frightened, although he was still unwilling to hover in the sky, he no longer had the courage to attack rashly.

Wu Song saw that the old man had climbed up, and pointed to a boulder next to him that could shelter from the wind.

Hiding under the boulder, the old man looked at Wu Song, although he didn't know Wu Song's identity, he still said, "Young man, thank you just now." ”

When the old man saw that Wu Song was thinly dressed, but his face was ruddy, and he didn't look cold at all, he knew that this young man was definitely a master.

Wu Song smiled slightly: "Old man, why do you have to worry about raising your hands, it's so dangerous, why do you still come to collect medicine?"

The old man sighed and said, "There is a patient at home, and I need a precious medicinal herb to treat the disease, and I know the growth environment of this medicinal herb, so I secretly came to look for this medicine." After speaking, he glanced at the place just now and continued: "It's a pity that the medicine that just arrived was destroyed by this beast. ”

Wu Song said: "Generally, there will be birds of prey near the elixir, but don't be sorry if you are old, you can find it again if the medicine is lost, but if you lose your life, there will be nothing." ”

The old man sighed and said, "Alas, of course I understand this truth, but I am eager to save people, and I really don't have time to waste." After speaking, the old man looked at Wu Song again and said, "What are you doing here, aren't you also here to find medicine?" ”

Wu Song smiled slightly: "I was originally enjoying the night view next to the cloud pool, and after seeing your figure, I followed with curiosity for a while, and please don't blame me." ”

The old man was horrified when he heard this, and he followed all the way from Yunchi, that is to say, the young man in front of him followed him at a height of about four thousand meters, and he didn't even know it. Moreover, from Wu Song's hand of hitting the bird with gravel just now, the old man could also see that the kung fu of the young man in front of him was definitely higher than his own.

Thinking about it like this, he suddenly felt a little afraid, if this young man wanted to harm himself, wouldn't he be like a fish on the case.

The old man took a step back and asked vigilantly, "Who are you?"

Wu Song guessed the old man's scruples, he touched his nose, and smiled harmlessly, "I'm just like you, I'm also here to look for things, but don't worry, I have absolutely no malice, if there were, I wouldn't have helped just now." ”

The old man was right to think about it, so he was a lot less wary of Wu Song.

"My name is Wu Song, and I'm from Kyoto. Wu Song introduced himself.

The old man also said, "My name is Shi Yunfei. ”

Wu Song nodded and said, "What kind of medicinal herbs do you always come to pick, do you have to go to such a dangerous place?"

Shi Yunfei shook his head and said, "I have rucus at home, but the medicinal herb I need now is more precious and more difficult to find than rucao." ”

Wu Song immediately became interested when he heard this, and secretly said that maybe this was his chance, so he asked: "Take the liberty of asking, what kind of medicine are you always looking for, maybe I can help you avoid a lot of detours." ”

Shi Yunfei hesitated and said, "Actually, I came to find medicine to cure my granddaughter's illness, I have never heard of this medicine, my granddaughter learned about it from a high-ranking person." I didn't expect that there was really this kind of medicine in the world, but it was already in my hands, and I lost it again, and I don't know where to find the next one. ”
