When he woke up, Wu Zheng's head felt groggy. He dreams at night, and sometimes dreams of terrible creatures. It's just that when he was in a dream, Wu Zheng did whatever he wanted to beat those creatures. This is why Wu Zheng laughs frequently at night.

As the sky dawned, everyone packed up their gear. Xiaohua and Luoli glanced at each other, and then said in a loud voice: "I thought about it for a while, if we return the same way, we are likely to encounter Nan Yaoguo's obstruction. And if you are not careful, you may encounter life-threatening situations. ”

As soon as Xiaohua said this, Mo Qing's face changed instantly. He stared at Xiaohua, but was not in a hurry to speak.

I only heard the bearded man ask, "You mean we take the holy mountain?"

Xiaohua nodded and said, "I think this is the safest plan." Although it is cold on the side of the holy mountain, there is no shortage of safe roads. What do you think?"

After a long silence, Xiaohua also looked towards Mo Qing and found that the latter seemed to be thinking about something. So, Xiaohua gave Luoli a look. Luo Li immediately understood, and said without hurrying: "I agree to go to the Holy Mountain." ”

Xiaohua smiled with satisfaction, this husband sings with his wife, and has a good time. I have to say that even Xiaohua herself admires this hand.

"What about you, Wu Zheng?" Xiaohua was the first to ask Wu Zheng, he knew that Wu Zheng would definitely be on his side. What he has to do now is to gather all the opinions of the people on his side, and try to get the majority to agree with him.

Wu Zheng took a bite of dry food, felt that it was dry and hard, and drank a sip of water before saying, "I listen to you." ”

Okay, that's what Xiaohua wants. In fact, sometimes, he still thinks Wu Zheng is very cute. Of course, it's that silly cuteness.

Wu Zheng voted, and all that was left was the dust and the beard. Falling dust's opinion, Xiaohua does not need to ask. Because he knew that even if he asked, Luochen would say coldly: "Whatever." ”

So, Xiaohua looked at the beard again. The bearded man did not hesitate, and immediately spoke: "Since the dean has instructed the family, the Sprinkle family will naturally go to the side of the holy mountain." ”

When Xiaohua heard this, she couldn't help but smile proudly, and the corners of her mouth hooked up an obvious arc. Now, what he wants to pay attention to is Mo Qing's attitude. If Mo Qing insisted on his point of view and wanted to part ways with everyone, then the holy mountain must have some unknown secrets.

But if Mo Qing still decides to follow a few of his own people, then thinking about it, the so-called danger may only be imaginary.

Xiaohua made up her mind, re-examined Mo Qing, and asked, "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, I don't know what you think?"

Mo Qing pondered for a while before he spoke: "I'm with you." He said something compromising in it, which always made Xiaohua feel a little uncomfortable.

In fact, if Mo Qing refuses directly, he will part ways, which will make Xiaohua feel at ease. And now he is like this, there is a kind of compromise in it. For some reason, Xiaohua was faintly worried.

The crowd walked for more than two days, and finally left the ancient city. In the same way as before, they crossed the canyon, and on the way, they got a lot of fish. Don't ask me where the fish came from, if you talk too much, it's all Wu Zheng's tears.

After that, the group began to march westward, striding towards the northwest. In the far south, most of the land is unowned, so it is not uncommon to encounter horse thieves. Xiaohua and others have seen it more than once before, and they are used to it.

But once we started heading northwest, everything suddenly changed. In this area, there seems to be a sudden decrease in horse thieves. For some reason, even traces of human activity are starting to become rare.

The dry food has been eaten, and Wu Zheng's stomach has already issued more than one warning. Finally, in the midst of such a boring and boring trip, everyone found something interesting.

On this day, they found a river. It was the eighth day since they had last seen water in the valley. Xiaohua glanced at the direction of the stream, and it didn't seem to be the one in the canyon before. And the flow of water is also very inconsistent.

Everyone rested by the river, and it was just noon, so they were not in a hurry.

As soon as Wu Zheng saw the river, for some reason, he began to have an instinctive fear. Fortunately, there were no biting fish found here, which made Wu Zheng barely breathe a sigh of relief. But then came the problem again. What do they eat without fish?

Wu Zheng fell into decadence again, squatting by the river, boring to slide his hands in the water. At this moment, a floating object on the water suddenly touched Wu Zheng's hand.

At first, he didn't care, thinking it was aquatic plants or something. But then, when he looked up, his face turned white with fright. Wu Zheng suddenly saw that what was floating on the river was a mass of shabby clothes. And the lump of things wrapped in clothes actually showed bare skin.

Wu Zheng was so frightened that he sat down directly on the ground and cried out "ah".

Xiaohua heard the voice and was the first to rush over. Then he saw something floating on the river. He first pulled Wu Zheng up, and then looked at it fixedly.

The thing floated on the water, mostly covered by the tattered clothes, and it was hard to see clearly. But with its exposed part, Xiaohua has been able to roughly determine that it is a person.

Next, the picture was fished ashore. The bearded man acted as a laborer, and he seemed not to be afraid at all, but was happy, and slowly untied the clothes. The next moment, a male corpse was revealed.

Luoli frowned and didn't look directly. The others, most of them were the same, only the bearded man and the little flower, sat and talked about it, and there was no one to guess.

"This man must have drowned accidentally. The bearded man put his wet hand on his trouser leg and wiped it, then spoke.

"I don't think so. Xiaohua shook his head, and he put his eyes on the man's body, looking up and down, as if trying to find the real cause of death. It's just that after watching it for a long time, I didn't see a reason.

Just as he was about to give up, something floated over the river. This time, it was no longer a corpse, but a living person. The man propped up the boat and came slowly with the current.

Wu Zheng looked scared, but when he saw that it was a white-haired old man, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't go up to catch up with him, but the old man shouted to the shore, "Hey, do you see a dead drift?"

"Dead drifting?" Wu Zheng's head was full of question marks. Xiaohua reacted quickly, and hurriedly beckoned: "Uncle, this way." ”

The old man was not ambiguous, propped up the boat, skillfully docked, and then jumped down from it. I have to say that this uncle's pace is very sharp, and he doesn't look like an elderly person at all. Especially when he jumped off and pretended to be nothing, he was very good.

Xiaohua was also convinced, and the exit inquiry was polite: "Uncle, what you are looking for, is this it?"

The old man rubbed his feet and neck, and then said excitedly, "Yes, yes, yes." Three pairs of words in a row, and then sighed: "I've been chasing for a morning, and I finally got it." With that, as everyone watched in amazement, he slowly walked up to the corpse.

Then, I saw the old man, and he quickly ripped off the corpse's clothes. But that wasn't the end of it, and he began rummaging through his clothes again. Finally, after the unremitting efforts of the old man, he finally took out two pieces of broken silver from it.

Then the boss smiled satisfactorily, and without looking back, he was about to head for his boat. Where could Xiaohua let go of the old man so easily and hurriedly stopped him.

The old man was not a vegetarian, he immediately became alert, and said in a loud voice: "What are you going to do?" and then the next moment, as if he understood something, he smiled slightly: "Companion, right? Don't worry, I understand what you mean." ”

After that, he took out a piece of broken silver from his hand and stuffed it into Xiaohua's hand, comforting him: "This piece is for you, how about it? ”

Xiaohua was subconsciously stunned for a moment, what is the situation, are you very old? Okay, Xiaohua sighed helplessly and explained: "Uncle, you misunderstood. ”

"How could I have misunderstood? The old man was very stubborn, and waved his hand again and again and said: "Young man, I advise you, people must learn to be content, and a piece of broken silver is already a lot." ”

Well, Xiaohua thinks that the old man really regards himself as a peer, how can he explain it? Looking at the old man's kind smile, he really can't bear to deceive the old man.

So Xiaohua took a breath and said seriously: "Uncle, I'm really not your peer." ”

"You're really not?" the old man was already suspicious.

"I'm not. Xiaohua continued to answer seriously. But he didn't want to, the old man suddenly stretched out his hand and snatched the broken silver in his hand. Then, I heard him mutter: "Since you are not a peer, then this silver should be given to the old man." With that, there was a burst of laughter.

Xiaohua felt embarrassed, scratched her head, and asked, "That uncle, can I ask you something?"

"No, you can't. The old man's answer was very crisp, and there was not even any hesitation.

Xiaohua's face pulled down, and she said in a deep voice, "Why?"

"Why, old man, I'm still busy fishing for corpses, how can I have time to talk nonsense with you here. ”

Xiaohua's face was full of black lines, and then she reacted and said loudly: "My son is rich." ”

"Are you powerful if you have money?" the old man scoffed. But the next moment, Xiaohua heard him say again: "One question, one or two silver." ”

Good fellow, Xiaohua swallowed her saliva, forcibly suppressing the urge to beat up this thing.
