Ji Muye pushed away the tableware on the table, poured some two pots on the blank space of the table, dipped his fingers in the wine and drew a circle, and asked casually, "Which of the two of you will come first?" ”

Yun Kai didn't know what he meant: "What do you write?" ”

"Write whatever comes to mind."

Yunkai, who was slightly drunk, dipped some wine in the same way, and wrote the word "drunk" in the circle.

Ji Muye's expression suddenly became cautious and serious, and he stared at Yun Kai's face for a while before saying, "Look, aren't you a short-lived appearance?" How did you write that? ”

Yun Kai asked depressedly: "Didn't you say that you can write whatever words come to mind?" ”

Ji Muye erased the word and said, "Drunk, you are a pawn." It's not a good word......"

"Hehe, everyone will die, and there's nothing wrong with a pawn." Although Ji Muye was right just now, Yun Kai always felt that something was wrong, and he was even more skeptical of what he said about the scientific physiognomy, even if there was really a magical physiognomy of the gods, it would not be as simple as he said. Yunkai is an unbeliever, when he was a child, he went to the temple with his mother to ask for a lot, if he didn't draw a good lot, he would definitely be entangled and continue to draw, until he drew the lot, so he said with an indifferent face: "When I want to die one day, I will go to Brother Ji to order good wine, and when I get drunk, I will rest haha......"

"That's what I say, an open-minded person is not afraid of ghosts and gods!" Ji Muye raised his wine glass, touched it with Yun Kai and said, "But your trip to Padang this time may have some twists and turns, be careful in everything!" ”

Yan Xiaoyi saw that the wind was rain, and also asked him to measure the word, Ji Muye drew a circle again, and Yan Xiaoyi hurriedly wrote a dignified "Yan" character in the circle.

Ji Muye glanced at it helplessly and said, "Deliberately made up, not the way of physiognomy." You're a fake......"

Yan Xiaoyi hurriedly defended: "Not deliberately, not deliberately!" That's what I just thought! ”

"I can't help it!" Ji Muye put down the wine glass, pretended to take a look, and then dealt with the matter and said: "Yan Cheng is a pair of butterflies, how did Shuangfeiyan fly alone?" ”

These words had nothing to do with word measurement, but Yan Xiaoyi was shocked, and her face was full of panic. He saw from the corner of his eye that Yun Kai didn't react, and Ji Muye didn't continue to say anything, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his wine glass and said, "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." Brother Ji, Yunkai, let's get this cup dry? ”

"!"

The three of them raised their glasses at the same time and drank it all.

"When you wake up, you will have a good time, and when you are drunk, you will disperse, and the two little brothers will say goodbye!" Ji Muye got up to say goodbye and said to Yun Kai sincerely: "Brother Yun, for your sake of calling your eldest brother, the eldest brother will be profound. There is also a solution to the word drunk, the wine without water is unitary, and the green without feathers is a pawn. If you encounter no feather arrows, you can avoid trouble by wading in the water, big brother wishes you all the best! ”

"Thank you, Big Brother Ji!" Yunkai stood up and sent Ji Muye away. Physiognomy said, whether he believes it or not, people always have good intentions, and just rubbed off other people's good wine worth thousands of gold, it is always appropriate to say thank you.

Yan Xiaoyi looked at Ji Muye's disappearing hatch and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Yun Kai quipped disapprehantly: "Swollen, do you really believe it?" ”

Yan Xiaoyi was still thinking about Shuangfeiyan in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "Yunkai, let me tell you, this Brother Ji is definitely not simple!" Believe it or not, I believe it anyway......"

The apes on both sides of the strait could not stop crying, the light boat had already crossed the ten thousand mountains, the river boat went down the water, the sailing speed was very fast, and it took half a day to arrive at Padang. Yun Kai didn't know what impact this episode would have on his future life, so he didn't take it to heart, and took Yan Xiaoyi ashore with him, planning to find a hotel to stay overnight, go to the ferry along the river early tomorrow morning, and then find a guide to charter a car into the forest area.

Although Yunkai has entered the mountain, he follows the old man and doesn't care about anything, and the route is not clear, so it is necessary to find a guide to enter the mountain. As for where the Ice Flame Flower grows, he can only speculate according to the description in the pharmacopoeia, the so-called extreme cold and extreme heat, according to Yunkai's understanding and speculation, should be on the top of the high-altitude snow-capped mountain, and there is a place for geothermal rise below it - this matter really has to complain about those senior pharmacists who pretend to be mysterious, as if they are not tall enough if they don't write like this, you will die if you honestly draw a map and write a place name?

Shennongjia is known as Shennong Baicao Garden, which has a special status in the hearts of Chinese pharmacists. Due to the special geographical environment, Shennongjia is the refuge of animals and plants in the Quaternary glacial period, almost including all species from Mohe in the north, Xishuangbanna in the south, Fusang in the east, and Himalayas in the west.

However, this Hundred Herb Garden was too big, and Yun Kai knew that the Ice Flame Flower was in the mountains, but he couldn't get it quickly. The so-called "midsummer at the foot of the mountain, spring at the top of the mountain, bright autumn at the foot of the mountain", climb from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, just experience the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and at this time it is late autumn, the foot of the mountain is warm like spring, but above the foot of the mountain is full of snow, can you find ice fireworks on the snow mountain, Yunkai is not sure at all, can only go up the mountain to try luck.

As for Su Hang's worries and Ji Muye's advice, Yun Kai didn't take it to heart, this was not arrogant, but he had to go this way, it was useless to worry and fear, and it was not his style to cower. He and Yan Xiaoyi stayed overnight in Badong County, and the next morning they rushed to the ferry along the river by car, and were surrounded by a group of locals as soon as they got off the bus.

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to draft water, many villagers in the Shennongjia Forest Area make a living by serving tourists. Some villagers went to work in other cities, and some villagers opened hotels as tour guides, but they lived a more nourishing life than before. Yunkai and Yan Xiaoyi are carrying mountaineering luggage, and at first glance they are "travel friends" who come to play adventures and find excitement, this kind of people do not like to take regular tourist routes, but like to take small roads to live in houses, keen to experience local life, and will not be stingy when they shoot, in the eyes of these local guides, they are the most popular customers.

"You two are going into the mountains, right? I can be your guide and drive you up......," said a thinly emaciated villager, stopping the two and pointing to a minibus parked not far away.

Another sister-in-law handed over a tourist map and tempted her in a charming manner: "Two little brothers, come, my sister will take you up!" The terrain here is the most familiar to my sister, let's go live in a small tree house, eat farm food, and sleep on a shelf bed......"

"Yo, auntie!" A young man who was a little angry joked with his hands in his trouser pockets: "You are unfair competition!" Do you still plan to provide three-* escort service? ”

"Get out! Bad old lady business, go back and peel your skin! The sister-in-law raised her foot angrily and kicked it, and the young man retreated with a smile, looking like acquaintances were used to playing around.

When Yunkai and the two hesitated to choose a guide, a sturdy man with a tanned face squeezed in from behind and Mao Sui recommended himself: "I used to be a hunter in the forest area, and I am familiar with the roads in the mountains, and I have also been to some remote places. If you two are going on an adventure, it's best to ask me to lead the way, and you can deal with wild beasts......"

Yun Kai's heart moved, and he made a look at Yan Xiaoyi, and Yan Xiaoyi asked, "Are you Orion?" Have you ever hunted a black bear before? ”

"Black Bear...... You mean the black blind, right? I've actually killed that thing, but with a shotgun. The man looked at the thin bodies of the two of them, shook his head amusedly, and said, "If you don't have a shotgun, run away if you encounter one......

Yan Xiaoyi pretended to be a layman and asked, "Didn't you say that you just need to pretend to be dead when you meet a black bear?" ”

"Play dead? That's looking for death! Bears that don't eat meat seem to be only giant pandas, right? The black blind man has bad eyes but a sensitive nose, and the way to escape is just four words, retreat slowly with the wind, and all other methods are nonsense......"

Yan Xiaoyi judged from his answer that Bacheng, a swarthy man, had really been a hunter, so he directly asked for the fee. The man stretched out four fingers and said, "Four hundred yuan a day, excluding room and board, and charter fare." ”

"So expensive? 400 a day, the monthly income is 12,000...... I said, big brother, your income is much higher than mine! ”

"That's not how the accounts are counted. You get a monthly salary to ensure income in drought and flood, let's be a guide in this poor ravine, we can bring two or three groups of guests a month and have fun, no one comes at all in winter, how much income do you think I can have? Now the forest area is not allowed to grow grain and hunt, and the family still has to feed, you have to be too expensive, at most you will be given a 10% discount, no matter how cheap it is, there is no way......"

Yan Xiaoyi wanted to continue to give full play to his professional expertise and let the other party see the bargaining skills of the gold medal salesman, but Yunkai was too lazy to deal with the coolies, not to mention that this man was quite sincere, so he nodded and agreed. A group of locals who were soliciting customers around saw that the business had been stolen by the swarthy man, so they turned to other tourists who got off the bus, and the man led the way in front of him and walked towards a pickup truck parked not far away.

Yunkai and the two followed behind, the man helped the two put their luggage away, Yan Xiaoyi asked casually: "My name is Yan Xiaoyi, what is the name of the eldest brother?" ”

"My surname is Du, you call me Brother Du, Old Du Ducheng." Lao Du's Mandarin has a strong Sichuan-Hubei tone: "If you still lack anything, buy it here, wait for us to go directly into the mountain, there is really no such shop in this village!" Don't buy water, I have it in my car - how many days are you going to go into the mountains? ”

"We don't know, probably...... Three or five days, right? ”

"Don't know? It's not going to work. We, the local guides, do not have a tour guide card or anything, but we are also responsible for the safety of tourists. It's not a joke to enter the mountain, it's okay on the road, if you enter the mountain road, you can't go to the village and don't have a store, what do you eat and drink? ”

Yun Kai explained: "Brother Du, in fact, we went up the mountain to collect medicines, and when we found medicinal materials, we came down. If it goes well, it will take two or three days, if it doesn't go well, it will take about a week, clothes, tents, medicines, and dry food are prepared, what do you think we need to bring? ”

"Are you going to eat a week's worth of dry food?" Lao Du asked a few more words, thought about it and said: "Buy some more meat and vegetables and bring them, fire is prohibited in the forest area, but some abandoned old houses can be used to make fires for cooking......

"Then listen to Brother Du!"

Lao Du started the car, took the two of them to the town to buy good things, and then returned, and threw them into the back compartment of the pickup truck. This pickup truck is some years old, the shock absorption system is not very good, just walking this part of the road in the town, it shook the two of Yunkai's buttocks, Lao Du was a little embarrassed to say: "The car is a little old, but the leather is very solid." I promise you won't have a problem going up the hill and you can run better than an off-road vehicle! ”

"It's fine. Let's go, shall we? ”

"Let's go!"
