Chapter 158: Interesting Horse Hunting

"Divine Mountain, where is Divine Mountain!" Zhang Yang hurriedly asked. However, there was no voice to reply to him. There was silence all around, as if everything had just been a dream.

……

"Strange, why did you fall asleep just now!" Lin Min was the first to wake up.

"Maybe I'm tired of walking, so I took a nap too. Wake them up, let's go back!" Zhang Yang said lightly. But I thought in my heart, how can I find such a big mountain range?

“……”

……

When we descended the mountain back to the small village, it was already dusk.

"Son-in-law, have you gone to my house to see it?" said the old man smiled.

"Grandma, we've been there, but the road is a little difficult to walk, the house is quite big, and the hole is ......" When talking about the hole, Zhang Yang didn't continue.

"How can it be difficult to walk, such a big road! The house is not very big. Also, what hole did you just say, my house is leaky?" Salami hurriedly asked, she has lived in this house for most of her life, and she is very emotional.

"Oh, maybe we went the wrong way, so we felt that it was difficult to walk!" Zhang Yang smiled. But in my heart, I know that I have encountered the space left by a strong man again!

"According to the plan, our next goal: Mount Kinabalu!"

At dinner, Zhang Yang announced the next departure area.

Early the next morning, when she left, the old man Serami was reluctant, and she repeatedly asked that the next time she came, she would bring You Ruli over.

"Okay grandma!" Zhang Yang Nuonuo said continuously, but he smiled bitterly in his heart.

……

Mount Kinabalu is covered with snow all year round, and it looks like a white flower.

Lin Min and the four of them cheered happily and went crazy on the snow for a while.

"Director, come and play in the snow for a while!" Old Seven shouted.

"Come here!" the other three said in unison.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, Zhang Yang waved his hand at them and did not speak. At this moment, his brain showed the entire layout of Mount Kinabalu.

The mountain range starts from Ermi in the west, traverses the west and Tibetan mountains, and extends to the territory of Mohai, with a total length of about 2,500 kilometers, an average altitude of 5,500-6,000 meters, a width of 130-200 kilometers, narrow in the west and wide in the east, with a total area of more than 500,000 square kilometers.

More than 500,000 square kilometers, such a large area, and without a clear goal, how to find it? And what kind of secret is this?

All this is an unknown.

"It's better to ask a local if there is anything special about Mount Kinabalu, so that you can narrow down the target. Zhang Yang muttered to himself.

"Director, where are we going next?" Lin Min walked over.

"That's what I'm thinking about, I looked it up before I came and it's so big, so I thought it would be helpful to get a local guide to ask us. Zhang Yang smiled: "Next, but I have to work hard for you, this is not a small village." ”

"Director, what is this hardship, isn't it just climbing the mountain, we often climb it on weekends. Lin Min looked confident.

"Call them and ask them in a nearby village. Zhang Yang said.

"Okay!" Lin Min agreed, turned around and shouted to the three people who were still in the snow: "The director said, let's go find a nearby village first." ”

After getting in the car, Lao Qi said: "I feel good when I see the snow, on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, I folded a big snowman in front of my house, and put on my dad's clothes, hey, it turned out that my mother was misunderstood!"

"What's the misunderstanding?" Xiao Liu asked curiously.

"I misunderstood that this was my father, and said that what were you doing standing at the door early in the morning, but my father asked my mother, who are you talking to at the door alone in the morning!

"I guess I was beaten up by your father, right?" Lin Min grinned.

"How can I be! I'm not a primary school student!" Lao Qi disguised.

"Lao Qi, do you mean that I was often beaten up when I was a primary school student?" Xiao Liu asked threateningly.

The crowd burst into laughter.

“……”

……

"Uncle, may I ask, who in your area is more familiar with the Sacred Mountain?" At the entrance of Daxuan Village, Zhang Yang politely asked an old man.

"You can go to the old hunter for this question, he is familiar with it!" As he spoke, the old man pointed to the road in front of him and said, "Keep walking, there is a left turn in front of you, and it is the old hunter's house." At this time, he will be at home!"

"Thank you, uncle!"

"You're welcome!"

“……”

According to the old man's instructions, Zhang Yang saw a middle-aged man wearing a badam hat and a white Tumak at the door of a house at the left turn, he was squatting at the door of his house, with a chessboard on the ground, and he was playing chess with himself.

Lin Min was about to greet him, but Zhang Yang stopped him in time. A true gentleman who does not speak when watching chess, although it refers to watching people play chess from the sidelines, and can only watch and not speak, then he can be regarded as a truly cultivated gentleman. However, when others are playing chess, it is not a gentleman to be able to do it without disturbing.

After a while, when the middle-aged man had finished playing chess, he raised his head and said with a smile, "Sit, sit!" He casually moved a few stools and poured a cup of mare's milk for everyone.

"Hello uncle, I heard that you are familiar with the sacred mountain, so I came here to ask for advice!" Zhang Yang said politely.

"Hey, hey, it's not blowing, I'm second, no one dares to be first. The old hunter laughed.

"It can be seen that you are the shepherd of the sacred mountain!" Zhang Yang praised it truthfully and falsely. Then he asked, "Uncle, can I ask you a question?"

"You can ask whatever you want!" said the old hunter with a smile.

"Is there anything special about the Sacred Mountain?" asked Zhang Yang with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The old hunter was visibly stunned. He was silent for a while before he said, "What, you little babies want to go to the sacred mountain?"

"Yes uncle, can you give me some advice?" Zhang Yang smiled, but his eyes had never left the expression of the old hunter, and it could be seen that this was a person with a story.

"Let me tell you this, even if I tell you, you may not be able to find it, I can be your guide, but you must hire me. The old hunter said without blushing.

Zhang Yang smiled. Anything that can be done with money is not a problem. "It's simple, uncle, you can make a price!"

"Oh, how many little dolls do you have money? Okay, I charge two standards, one is a charter, that is, you set the time, and I will follow you to the end. He held out four fingers, "I'll take four thousand." He continued: "The second is the daily calculation, and I will count the day with you." He held out three fingers, "I'll take three hundred days." ”

"Uncle, let's charter it, and I'll add you another four thousand dollars. If you provide horses, food, I will pay you separately. Is that okay?" said Zhang Yang with a smile.

"Hey, you're funny, but that's all I can do, I can't break the rules. I went to rent horses, and they cost 500 yuan per horse. The old hunter said seriously.

"Good!" Zhang Yang smiled. He reached out and took out a stack of money from the equipment bag and handed it to Lao Lie, and said: "Uncle, this money will be put there for you first, our food and accommodation along the way are all arranged by you, if it is not enough, you can tell me at any time!"

"Okay, you little baby, it's refreshing enough!" the old hunter gave a thumbs up, didn't say much, took the money, didn't count it, and stuffed it directly into his pocket. He said, "Let's go, let's go now, let's go eat something first, and then go and rent horses." He paused and said, "I'm in for this meal!"

Zhang Yang smiled, and he beckoned Lin Min and the others to follow.

……

Unlike in the small villages, there are only three types of food: mare's milk, naan and fried buns.

Although I have seen horses before, when I see the horses here, I know what it means to have a lot of horses. Of course, this is related to the geographical reasons.

But then the problem came, except for Zhang Yang, Lin Min and the four didn't know how to ride a horse, and after Lao Qi rode on, he was almost thrown off the horse by the horse.

So Lao Hunt spent most of the day to teach everyone how to ride horses, and replaced a few horses with docile personalities, and the six of them finally got on the road smoothly. Lao Lie also borrowed a few tents from people.

However, before leaving, Lao Hunt also made a request, that is, to bring more than 300 fine-wool sheep he raised. Because he went out, there was no one to take care of the woolly sheep.

With hundreds of fine-wool sheep in front and six horses behind, everyone feels like a herdsman here.

As far as the eye can see, the sky here is so beautiful, light blue, sapphire blue...... , each color is so pleasing to the eye and makes people feel happy.

"Little doll, what's your name?" asked the old hunter.

"Uncle Lao Hunting, you call me Zhang Yang, or Xiao Zhang. Zhang Yang introduced Lin Min and four others.

"I'm a person, I'm afraid of trouble, and I often have people looking for me to lead the way, and I don't bother to ask them what their names and surnames are, because, after a few days, everyone will go their separate ways, and who remembers whom. So, I don't even ask, I just remember that there was once such a person and such a thing, and it was enough. The old hunter seemed to explain, and seemed to sigh.

Zhang Yang smiled. I am also thinking in my heart that a person's life has to go through a lot of things and contact many people, and sometimes, even if I write down a person's name, I forget it after a while. Old hunting is simpler, I don't ask, and I don't forget, this is not an attitude of life.

"Zhang Yang, I don't know what you are doing here to find these special places, but my opinion is that we can only watch around and not go into these areas. The old hunter said solemnly.

"Uncle Lao Hunting, can you tell me anything strange about these special places?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Today, the first place we go to is called Death Valley......" The old hunter reined in the horse's rope, pointed in a direction ahead, and said, "We pass from here, there are one hundred and thirty kilometers of road. It used to be the best meadow, the most lush grass, the first choice of our ancestors' shepherds, but then ...... "The old hunter's voice was a little unusual, and when he said this, he stopped, as if he had thought of something.
