Chapter 251: The Mysterious Old Carpenter

"Dorjee said that the old carpenter was reluctant to go to Kunlun Mountain, which was obviously telling us that the old carpenter had gone deep into Kunlun Mountain, and he must have encountered something particularly dangerous, so he was unwilling to go. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoSince he has gone deep into the Kunlun Mountains, he is the only one to be our guide. Next, it's up to Team Leader Xi to say that this person is going to take us into the mountains?

Xie Jiuli nodded, and then listened to Xi Linchuan say: "Then Brother Duoji, you can take us to see the old carpenter you said now!"

Dorjee hesitated and said, "But he has already rejected me, presumably even if you go, he will not agree." ”

Xi Linchuan smiled and said, "You just take us there, as for how to convince him to be our business, leave it to us." ”

Dorjee sighed and said, "You guys really don't want to die, and you have to do such a dangerous thing." If Kunlun Mountain is so easy to be turned over, it won't be called Kunlun Mountain!"

Xi Linchuan still said softly: "We are natural explorers, don't you feel at ease with us? Don't worry, if it is really as dangerous as you say, we will retreat." ”

Dorjee shook his head, there was no way. "Well, I'll take you to meet him now. ”

The old carpenter is the best carpenter in the tribe of Dorjee, not very old, about forty years old, with a beard that is not long or short, but the back is slightly hunched. In appearance, the old carpenter is no different from ordinary people, except for the high nose bridge characteristic of highland people, there is nothing special, at least it looks extremely ordinary.

The old carpenter only relied on exquisite carpentry work to make a living, but the tribe was relatively backward and used mostly old furniture. The old carpenter's work was more about repairing these old furniture, and he didn't earn much money. Perhaps because of this, the old carpenter is still single to this day.

Dorjee took Xie Jiuli and his party to introduce the background of the old carpenter while walking. Xi Linchuan looked at him and asked, "Do you all call him Old Carpenter because he doesn't have a name?"

Dorjee shook his head and said, "There is a name, his name is Zhu Hengchang." ”

Zhu Hengchang: This doesn't sound like a name unique to the plateau region, but more like the name of a person from the Central Plains. Xi Linchuan raised his eyebrows, "This old carpenter you are talking about, he is not a local, is he?"

Dorjee nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that it came from the northeast, and I also heard that it came from the south." Anyway, the strange thing is that he speaks Mandarin without a single accent, and he doesn't speak when asked. Eccentric tight. ”

is from the mainland, but he never mentions his identity and origin. This Zhu Hengchang, or is everything other than this name worth scrutinizing, right? Xi Linchuan thought for a while, and then asked, "Then how many years has he lived with you?"

Dorjee thought about it with a sad face, then shook his head and said, "It's been a long, long time, I don't remember when I came." ”

The migration of inland areas is generally led from poor places to rich places, but this Zhu Hengchang chose to come to live in this place that is relatively backward no matter where it is viewed. Xi Linchuan felt strange and couldn't figure out why a person would want to let himself live an increasingly miserable life. He wondered, and knew that now was not the time to ask. Then he said, "Does he know that we are going to him?"

Dorjee said: "As long as I show up at his door, he will know." I've been here a few times before, but he turned me down. ”

Xi Linchuan said with a smile: "Sure enough, Brother Duoji asked for us." ”

Dorjee smiled honestly: "Isn't this looking for an experienced person, I think only the old carpenter is the most suitable." But he wouldn't agree, so I couldn't do anything. ”

Xi Linchuan said: "Don't worry, Brother Duoji, we'll talk about this ourselves." If you still can't talk about it, there's nothing. ”

Dorjee said: "I originally wanted to find a first-class guide for you, hey......" He looked sincere, really regretting this matter.

Xi Linchuan said with a smile: "Brother Duoji, you have arranged it very well. ”

There are not many people traveling with him, only Xie Jiuli, Qian Xu, and Fangong. So the three of them tacitly chose to keep their mouths shut when they were talking in Xilinchuan. After all, Nishirinkawa was the commander of this operation. And most importantly, they are not that familiar with Dorjee.

At this time, they came to a yurt that looked small on the outside, and on the side of the door were various scattered pieces of wood, of various sizes, which looked like they were left over from something made. On the other side of the pile, there was a stick, to which was attached an iron chain, but there was nothing at the end of the chain.

Xie Jiuli looked at it and said, "This ...... Looks like it's used to tie up dogs, right?"

Dorjee nodded when he heard this, and said, "That's right, the old carpenter raised a wolf dog before, and that wolf dog is smart." It's just that after entering the mountain that time, they all said that the old carpenter came back by himself. What happened to this dog, he didn't talk about it. But everyone guessed that he died in the mountains. ”

As soon as Dorjee's words fell, the heavy door curtain was lifted from the inside, but I don't know why a lot of soil was scattered on the door curtain at this time, and all of them flew to Xie Jiuli and the others.

Xie Jiuli waved the choking air in front of him and said, "Oh, why is this so much soil!"

She stood beside him and silently stabbed him in the elbow. Xie Jiuli then fell silent.

A middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, his face did not have many wrinkles, but the hair on the top of his head was half white. He was emaciated, like a crust on his bones. It's just that those shining eyes show that this person is just a young man who is not confused.

Xie Jiuli looked at his tattered clothes and found that this person was no different from the scavengers he had seen. Outwardly, the man was living in poverty, and it seemed that the carpenter's work did not bring him much income.

Xie Jiuli couldn't help but feel sorry for him, the good handmade furniture in the city was ridiculously expensive, and a person like him who was proficient in carpenter's work had a much stronger income if he didn't nest here.

I really don't understand what this person is thinking......

But he didn't know it, everyone didn't know why the old carpenter suddenly came out of the house.

Dorjee thought he had heard their conversation and was unhappy to come out of the house and try to get rid of them. So he hurriedly said: "Old carpenter, you see that your life now can't be guaranteed tomorrow, why don't you listen to the good things that make money now!"

The old carpenter did not speak, but glanced at them lightly, and then brought a basin of water from the house as if no one was around, and poured it on the other side of the place where they stood.

Dorjee looked at him speechlessly, "......"
