Chapter 872: Peeking

Deng Zujiang hurriedly waved his hand, signaling the people who came with him to bring the livestock back first, and he inquired about the situation here. The people who followed Li Xinhai were not stupid people, and they immediately understood Deng Zujiang's intentions, and hurriedly left first.

"Oh, if we have nothing else here, it's that there are many mountains and trees. ”

"The mountains are good, the water is good. Deng Zujiang moved a small Mazha and sat opposite the mayor, "Raise people!"

The bald mayor nodded rather proudly, "That's it." We don't have a large population in this town, but we all live a long life! It's just that life is a little difficult. ”

"It is said that relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, our group of mountains is surrounded by rich resources, why not make use of it!"

The mayor waved his hand, "Let me tell you, abundance is one thing, and when it comes to utilization, it's another! Thirty miles east from our town, there are mountains and mountains, and a large beam of light, all of which are gravel, and it is difficult to walk. And then there is the old man's temple, speaking of this old man's temple, there are some origins. Listen to the old man, there used to be a temple with great incense here, but later, it's not like that!"

He gave Deng Zujiang a look and asked him if he understood.

Deng Zujiang hurriedly said, "Understood." ”

"Hey, the temple was destroyed, but the name of the old man's temple remained. We also dare to take a turn around the Lao Ye Temple, collect firewood, pick up some fungus, and if we are lucky, we can catch some pheasants and rabbits, and then we dare not go inside. ”

"Why!"

"The forest is dense! There are many mountains, there are no names, there are many trees, the grass is deep, and I don't know what is hidden inside, if I take a bite, it is not a joke. I heard the old people say that there used to be blind bears and giant pythons in the mountains! That guy feels strange and scary when he thinks about it! In the past, we lost people at this time, saying that they went up the mountain to collect firewood, but they didn't come back for many years, and they were probably taken away. Comrade, if you go into the mountains, you have to be careful. ”

Deng Zujiang nodded with a smile, said hello to the old comrade, and went back.

At this time, the livestock had been blindfolded and pulled onto the truck, waiting for Deng Zujiang.

"How's it going, what's the catch?"

Deng Zujiang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's not as much as I know!"

Li Xinhai seemed to have expected this result, and said, "Okay, let's hurry!"

The group got into the car and began to walk towards the mountains.

Thirty miles is nothing for a motorized vehicle, but the mountain road is difficult to navigate, and many places have to climb, so it took them almost an hour to reach the mountains.

A bare ridge of a mountain, surrounded by mountains, contrasts sharply with the lush vegetation of the surrounding landscape.

"Childe, further ahead is the Old Man Temple, our car can't pass, we can only walk. ”

Li Xinhai nodded and asked Deng Zujiang to go down to make arrangements.

Deng Zujiang asked people to put some heavier materials on the bodies of the two mules and let them carry them. Mules have good stamina and a stronger weight-bearing capacity than donkeys. Li Xinhai was not in good health, and Deng Zujiang planned to use the donkey as Li Xinhai's mount. The rest of the things will be assigned to people with good physical strength to carry, and when the time comes, everyone will change shifts and carry weights, which can be regarded as solving the problem.

Food and water will be consumed, daily necessities will be reduced little by little, and even people will be left behind, which is inevitable.

"Carry dry food and water with you. Deng Zujiang shouted loudly: "Pay attention to preserving dry food and water! After we enter the mountain, if we can find something to eat, we should keep the dry food first, and then eat dry food if we can't find anything to eat! There is only so much food, and if we drop it, we will be hungry." ”

Dry food is compressed biscuits, which do not take up space, and are most suitable for bringing in the wild.

Everyone got busy, mainly checking their water and dry food.

Song Yiran secretly looked at all this, thinking that these people didn't have an anti-heaven artifact, so they naturally had to suffer. If it were her, she would be able to carry several times more things than this alone.

Silently pretending, Song Yiran adjusted his two backpacks slightly, re-tied the rope of the hat on his head, and then put on the face towel made of gauze, and it was almost the same.

Sanniang glanced at her and chuckled, "You have a lot of things, you're afraid of the dark, and you have such a thing wrapped in your face." ”

Hehe~

Song Yiran didn't want to be like her, she didn't understand anything, and she still pretended to be a big clove of garlic! If she saw that she had tampons in her shoes, her eyes would not fly out!

"Alright, let's go. Li Xinhai rode on a donkey, which looked a little funny, but with his physical fitness, if he didn't ride a donkey, he would have to die of exhaustion before he walked far.

A group of more than 20 people marched along the mountains to the Lao Ye Temple. The trail is not easy to walk, but this is just the beginning. As Song Yiran walked, he secretly noted down the surrounding landforms and adjusted his breathing. In terms of her physical strength, this distance is trivial, but she doesn't want to be too aggressive, and she doesn't want others to figure out her strength early, so everything is collected.

"Yes!" After walking for more than twenty minutes, Sanniang leaned over. "I thought you'd be left behind?"

Song Yiran glanced at her and didn't speak.

"You man, I talked to you, didn't you hear?"

Song Yiran took off the face towel, "Can't you save some physical strength? ”

Sanniang couldn't help but be proud, thinking that Song Yiran was holding on, but she grew up in the mountains, and her physical strength was advantageous.

"If you're tired, I'll rest here with you for a while. ”

Song Yiran snorted coldly, pulled up his scarf and strode forward.

Sanniang didn't chase after her, and flipped the bag behind her, "See how strong you can be!"

After walking for more than 20 minutes, they came to the ruins of the Lao Ye Temple.

The temple that used to be full of incense was gone, and all they could see was the ruins, the ground blackened by fire, and the statues of the gods that had been smashed.

"Take a break!"

Song Yiran took the bag off his back and put it aside, carefully looking at the surrounding environment, this place is close to the edge of the old forest, and there is a lot of vegetation around, those people dare to set fire, aren't they afraid of burning the mountain?

It's bold enough, or crazy enough!

Song Yiran took the kettle and took a sip decently. Li Xinhai is holding a map to confirm the location!

Suddenly, there was a black shadow, blocking Song Yiran's sight, and as soon as she looked up, she saw Sanniang looking at her angrily.

"You peek at him!" his eyes looked like he was about to burst into flames, and his voice was loud.

Everyone around them looked at them.

Song Yiran was confused, what the hell is peeking at Li Xinhai? She shook her head, not planning to pay attention to this neurotic woman. Song Yiran began to pack up, and she guessed that she was about to go.
