Soon, the crowd began to march, gnawing on the meat in their hands to fill their hunger, while not stopping for a moment under their feet, showing a sense of urgency that every second counted!

……

Xiao Tianhe Grimace walked in front with a large bag on his back, while Lin Bingxuan and Melinda traveled lightly and walked side by side in the rear.

Because Melinda herself is assisted by True Qi, and Lin Bingxuan is not tired from being constantly lucky, the two of them talk and laugh but also make the atmosphere not so dull.

"Dead old man, you'd better put down what you're holding!"

A man's voice came from a distance, and the accent was twisted, causing the four people who were hurrying to stop.

"Foreigner?" Grimace couldn't help frowning, and then turned his gaze to Xiao Tian.

"Whether it's a foreigner or an alien, we have to keep going!" Xiao Tian smiled: "The voice came from the front, we can't take a detour, right?"

The grimace groaned for a while, and nodded: "Although there is a pendant to guide you, you don't have to worry about not being able to find your bearing, but once you detour now, the distance you go is still second, and if there is a mountain in front of you when you are about to reach the end, it will really make people dumbfounded!"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Bingxuan also spoke: "I also think that it is better to follow the main road, so that even if it is wrong, everyone is at fault, and there is still a great risk if you take a detour!"

Melinda on the side smiled and looked at the crowd, making the same gesture as you think.

Since they had decided not to take a detour, the crowd marched forward in one go, and the pace under their feet quickened a little.

Five minutes later, everyone saw the source of the sound, an old man with a pale face, who was now carrying a basket and a twine as thick as a thumb tied around his waist, and his face was very ugly when hanging in the air.

Below him, a blond-haired foreigner kept shouting and asking the old man to hand over the medicinal herbs in the basket.

"Old man, don't be so ignorant, otherwise not only will the medicinal materials in your hands belong to us, but even your life will not be up to you!"

"Our patience is limited, so let's hurry up and hand things over, OK?"

"Do you give it to the old thing, to be precise, do you think it's fun to drag it out like this?"

Seeing that the old man in mid-air was still silent, the leader was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties and had a pigtail that turned to the sky, showing an impatient expression, and then tilted his head slightly.

Seeing the movements of this artist-like man, the four of them immediately divided into two groups and ran in opposite directions, apparently trying to go around to the top of the mountain.

The four people who broke away from the team were obviously not ordinary people, and after only a few minutes, they all appeared at the top at the same time, nodding at the male character with long hair.

Seeing that everything was in place, the man with long hair said to the old man in the air: "I can give you another chance, if you refuse to cooperate again, you can look at your head ......"

The old man squinted and looked up, and at a glance he saw four foreigners with bad intentions, who were looking at him with a hideous face, and after making a vocal gesture to them, they all let out sarcastic smiles, as if they were teasing pets.

A feeling of humiliation suddenly surrounded the old man's heart, and at the same time, he looked at the distance below him at least five meters from the ground, and couldn't help but start to feel fear.

It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's just that I fell from a high altitude into the snow at a distance of five meters, although it is said that I will not fall to death, but it is certain that I will break my arm and leg.

For the old man who has lived by collecting medicine all his life, this is a fatal blow, and it is even more uncomfortable than killing him directly.

After all, the way to make a living is only a difference of one or two words on the surface, but compared to the two, they are completely different things.

After a long time of no response, the man with the hair was about to give the order to let the men on the top of the mountain cut the old man's rope.

At this moment, a man with an Asian face on the side greeted him with a flattering face: "Boss, don't be in a hurry to do it yet, why don't you let me try it?"

The man with long hair frowned, revealing a very disdainful expression: "You?"

Seeing that the other party responded, the man with an Asian face had a flattering look on his face even more, as if he had received a great gift, and replied: "I don't know, I am also from China, and I know the Chinese people very well. ”

After a pause, seeing that the other party did not stop him, he continued: "Although the old man looks tough now, he must be weak in his heart, as long as we give him a step at the right time, we will definitely let him come down by himself." ”

The Asian man's words made the leading man raise his eyebrows: "Are you sure?"

"Pretty sure!"

The Asian man bowed down and said in a very humble manner: "The men of China, whether they are young or old, regard face as more important than their own lives, so he is now just trying to maintain face!"

"Hmph!" the lead man pulled back the long braid on the top of his head, then patted the Asian man's face as if he were a lowly creature, and asked, "Why don't I see this trait in you?"

The smile on the Asian man's face suddenly froze, and then he hurriedly replied: "So, I am ashamed of my identity as a Chinese, but this kind of thing is not up to me to choose after all!"

"Hahahaha!"

The Asian man's words immediately made the surrounding foreigners burst into laughter, and some even applauded them directly, laughing so hard that they couldn't even straighten their waists, but the ridicule and contempt in the laughter could be heard by anyone.

"Can I ask you a question?" The leading man also had a hint of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, although he was literally asking, but the meaning of the commanding in his tone could not be concealed.

"You say!" the Asian man nodded repeatedly, deaf to the ridicule around him, and earnestly waited for the leader to ask a question.

"Is there any benefit to that?"

As soon as these words came out, not only the Asian man, but even Xiao Tian and others who were hiding on the side were a little strange, this foreigner's logic is simply problematic!

Obviously you're doing something, and you're the biggest beneficiary, but you still want to ask for benefits from the other party, is there still such a thing in the world?

"This ......" The Asian man didn't know how to answer for a while, as a salted fish at the bottom, he wanted to seize every opportunity to climb up, but he couldn't imagine that the other party would ask such a strange question.

Just as he opened his mouth, the leading man chuckled and said, "We've wasted enough time, enough to snatch the next herb picker, since you're still trying to persuade the old man, tell me, what good can we gain by doing this?"

The Asian man finally understood what the other party meant, and when he showed a sudden smile, he continued: "Think about it, that old man makes a living by collecting medicine, as long as we send two people to follow him, won't all the medicine he picks in the future be ours?"
