The boy is very entangled!

I saw that after the guy took the tea handed by the mountain people, he didn't drink it in the teacup!

He hesitated for a moment with his glass, a little closer to his lips, and I could see it clearly.

He barely touched the rim of the cup before he put it down again and rested it on the low table in front of him.

I watched him in action, all the way.

I told him before, I knew he wouldn't be able to drink!

I couldn't help laughing, took another sip of tea in my cup, calmed down my emotions, turned my head to the mountain people and asked, "Big brother, after the official road has been repaired, has the route changed a lot?" "Well, the route hasn't changed much," he replied, looking at me, "that is, bypassing a mountain road that was prone to collapse." ”

The mountain man and I looked at each other, and he said in a sincere tone: "Actually, you just need to walk along the avenue, don't believe in any shortcuts in the mountains, and don't turn into the mountains and forests on the side." “

After a pause, he said, "Generally speaking, if you follow the official road, you won't get lost." “

After the mountain man finished speaking, I immediately asked him, "You are also a hunter in the village, where have you been the farthest?" ”

I've wanted to ask this question for a long time, in my opinion, even if the man named Agui that the uncle said has really been to the farthest place, he is familiar with the hunters in the village, and what he has seen and heard will definitely tell everyone.

If there is such a place, maybe it will be mentioned in small talk on weekdays, I think it is necessary to ask.

"Big brother, have you ever heard of a place called Longyuan Lake in this area?"

I lowered my eyelids and thought for a moment, then looked up and asked.

As soon as the words came out. The boy and the mountain man, both eyes were focused on my face.

You can see that the young man's expression is quite unhappy.

I know he told me before he came. He had planned to be the lead interrogator, and he had been planning it since he heard the news last night, but I didn't come as agreed.

As for the reason, I have my reasoning.

It's not that I deliberately swept his face, but I think that since I have gone to the mountain people's houses and faced people who are familiar with the local situation, then I must ask what I want to know.

Although the tsundere boy told me. He knows what I want to ask, but he's not me, so how do you know what I want to ask?

This sounds a bit awkward. But it is the truest thought in my heart at this moment.

As a person, I firmly believe that I have to rely on myself at critical moments, as long as I can do it.

The help of others is good, but it is just the icing on the cake.

The boy was not happy though. That didn't stop me from asking. The mountain people lowered their heads and thought for a while: "Little brother, the place name of Longyuan Lake you said should have something to do with water, right?" ”

He didn't say that he had heard of Longyuan Lake, but he analyzed it with me!

I stared at him in surprise.

"Little brother, we have a lot of mountains here," the mountain man said in a serious tone to me, "Most of the places we go to are inseparable from the mountains. "I just heard you ask about the name of the place. It sounds like a place where someone from the fishing village would know. ”

"Fisherman?" My eyes lit up, and I could hear it from his words!

He didn't know the place called Longyuan Lake. But he said that there is one place that people may know, and that is the fishing village!

"Big brother, where is the place you said, let's go here, how do we go?"

I pondered for a moment and decided to continue asking.

After asking all the questions, it is natural to ask for a result, whether the person on the side is happy or not!

He wants to sulk, and I can't stop him, not to mention that he didn't open his mouth to stop me, and now he is my nominal big brother.

If you really want to intercept my topic, I won't talk about it.

In the silence of the tsundere boy, the mountain people carefully explained the route to me.

After listening to this, I looked at him again and said thoughtfully: "So you have actually been there quite a few times!" ”

"That's right, we have a lot of mountain goods here," the mountain man said in an affirmative tone, "Let's go and exchange things with the people of the fishing village from time to time." “

He also described the process to me: "Every time I catch the car, I go through the official road to the northeast and keep walking. ”

"It's hard for strangers to find that side, though," the mountain man said in a low tone, "if the road is unfamiliar." ”

The mountain man paused, to my ears, he seemed to have something to say, is there still a hidden secret?

I was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked him, "What's weird over there?" Big brother, you're spitting. ”

I was thinking that the strange person who appeared at the Nanhua Town Inn looked like he had kung fu, and that temperament was very close to the group of people I was familiar with before.

Shrewd and capable, even with a bit of cold-blooded and ruthless temperament.

Isn't there something special about a place that is hard for him to find?

When I heard the mountain people mention it, my first reaction was to think of it!

"The road conditions in that area are a bit peculiar," replied the mountain man, who looked down and thought as if to think about what to say more accurately. "If you don't know it well, you probably won't be able to get around it if you think there's no way out," he said, looking at me, "so you won't be able to get to the location of the fishing village." ”

"Only people who know it well know how to get there." After speaking, the mountain people continued to me, "Little brother, aren't you going to the Northland? “

I nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, we are planning to go to the Northland, and we stopped in the village because it was dark and it was raining heavily." “

The mountaineer's gaze stayed on my face and said, "Little brother, let me tell you, the fishing village is a dead end, and it doesn't lead to the north." "If you go that way, and when you get to the fishing village, and you want to go to the Northland again, you'll have to turn back and go back to that part of the road."

I understand what he means, that is, there is no second way to the Northlands!

If we go on a trip, we have to turn back, and we come and go, which delays a lot of time.

For a moment, I hesitated.

I must have curiosity about the place called Longyuan Lake, but is it really worth the time for me to check it out?

The tone of the mountain people did not advise me to go.

Let alone. The mountain man's words also revealed another meaning, he pointed out that the people in the fishing village were not sure that they must know the location of Longyuan Lake.

What does that mean it means it's very likely, even if we make a trip. Or is it equivalent to running for nothing!

can foresee more than half of the results in advance, whether to do it or not, the decision is up to me and the tsundere boy.

I think that this matter needs to be thought about carefully, and I can't make a rash decision by myself.

Come to think of it, I'll have to ask the guy next to me.

My temporary companions, my temporary coachmen and guards.

That's where I come to mind. Turned to look at him.

The tsundere boy happened to turn his head as well, and the two of them looked at each other, and I actually saw him gritting his teeth.

I knew he was angry. But at that moment, I don't know why, anyway, I felt like laughing at that moment!

Isn't it uncomfortable to feel like your companions are not in control?! Hey!

After staring at each other for a few seconds, the boy's expression slowly relaxed. A helpless expression appeared on his face. He stretched out his hand and pushed his forehead to look at me and said, "Brother, discuss it and then decide." ”

"That's what I meant, big brother."

I winked at him, and the guy immediately turned his head away from me.

Anyway, I'm used to his emotional changes, as if I often encounter him after getting to know him, don't think it's strange, I've gotten used to it!

I continued to ask the mountain people about the route. About the terrain near the fishing village, and the villagers there.

I thought. Even if you don't have to go to the fishing village, be prepared to ask for some news

In the early morning of the South of Zealand, the shops facing the street are just about to open.

There are very few pedestrians passing by on the streets, and it is not yet the busiest time of the day.

The early morning wind blows on the face, cold but not icy.

Because this is the south of Zealand, it occupies the advantage of geographical south.

In the south of Xilan, even if it is close to the end of the year, the climate is much warmer than that of Suzhou.

The man in blue is a man who came out of an alley.

He walked around the street, then turned and walked back the way he had come.

He walked through the streets, surveying the pedestrians walking around.

The man in blue calmly passed the gate of the restaurant along the street at the mouth of the alley.

He walked slowly deeper into the quiet alley.

After a while, the number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased, and there were people who came all the way from the city gate, and there were also people running through the alleys.

Most of those are the manpower placed in various places in the south of Xilan, and naturally include the manpower of the Linjiang warehouse.

They rushed from all directions, and as soon as they received the news that Tianfang had arrived in the south of Xilan, they almost couldn't wait to arrive.

In the courtyard of the house, Tian Fang stood idly in the garden, looking at the flowers planted by the people below.

When I chose this house, I chose a quiet location in the southern city of Zealand.

When I walked in, I found that there was a hole in the inconspicuous door outside.

The style of Tianfang has always been like this, and the decoration in the house goes far beyond the intuitive impression given by the outside.

The alley is also lively.

The guy in the restaurant at the entrance of the alley saw that people kept entering the alley, and his heart was probably that the big family living in it had guests

After about a quarter of an hour in the courtyard, he slowly approached the study in the courtyard of the house.

He sat down in his place, flipping through the book on his desk while quietly waiting for someone to come outside.

They got the news that reporting to the house was just a matter of priority.

People who had come from all over the city came to the outside of the house, and before they had entered the door, several of the men they met at the door stopped to talk a few words.

One of Tianfang's subordinates saw that his companion was preoccupied, and that person happened to be coming from the river.

He paused, and said half-jokingly to his companion: "I haven't seen the Lord yet, how can you be such a haggard appearance?" "Could it be that there has been a change in the investigation of the riverside warehouse?"

The companion quickly came back to his senses, smiled bitterly at him, and said, "There is nothing to do, it's just that I'm thinking about what to say to the Lord for a while." ”

"The news has been written on paper and handed over to the study in the courtyard in advance?" The subordinate asked.

The companion nodded and said, "The news was sent, but when I see the Lord, I will definitely have to explain the details carefully." ”

He hesitated, imagining the reaction of the man in the study to hearing the news.

"Well, the matter of the Linjiang warehouse is a little strange," the man said in a low voice, "We don't know the entanglements, and the Lord will definitely make a decision after gathering the news from all sides." “

"However, there are some variables."

"Variables, what variables?" The person on the other side was stunned for a moment, pinched the corners of his clothes with his hands hanging by his side, and looked at his companion.

"On the night of the fire in the Linjiang warehouse, there were still people, and they were eyewitnesses." The companion muttered in a low voice, paused and said, "We tried to find some way to check that person, but we didn't expect it to be involved." ”

He skipped a few words and didn't say a word, but he made a gesture, and the person opposite saw it and was quite shocked.

"Are you sure? Is there a mistake, we have joined forces with them in the capital of Zealand. ”

The man's expression suddenly solemn and said, "This matter can be big or small, it's not easy to do!" ”

"I'm embarrassed that I'm embarrassed here, and the evidence collected so far hasn't reached the point where it was definitely pointed out that it was the people over there who did it, if I told the Lord at this time, do you think it's appropriate?"

The man glanced into the distance and added, "So I haven't thought about it yet, and I need to think about it in the long run." “

"You might as well go in later, let's go in first and talk to the Lord."

His companion reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You stay outside, think about it first." ”

As his companion was about to leave, the man called out to him, "Go into the study and come out after talking, and speak to me, at least you know how the Lord is feeling at this time." ”

"Okay!" My companion readily agreed!

I put down the cup in my hand and said to the mountain people, "Big brother, I'm bothering you early in the morning." ”

I stood up and was about to leave, and the tsundere boy had already wanted to get up and leave several times during the conversation just now.

I knew his personality well, knew that this guy's patience was running out, and knew that if I didn't leave, I was afraid that I would have to listen to his tirade again when I got out of here later.

Hurry up and leave before the last bit of patience is exhausted.

The mountain people smiled, "It's okay, and it didn't help much." ”

"We've helped enough," I said gratefully, "not that we don't know the road conditions in this area, but this is the first time we've come here." ”

"I haven't asked you yet, where did you come from?" The mountain man asked.

I didn't even think about it, and immediately replied, "We are from Suzhou." ”

As soon as the words came out, I realized that I shouldn't have revealed it, so I glanced to the side, and sure enough, the guy's face was even darker.

When we said goodbye to the mountain man, we came out of his house and walked along the muddy path to the mountain road outside.

Before I could turn the corner, the tsundere boy immediately grabbed my arm and said to me, "Xiaoling, how can you reveal the information to him?" ”

I know he's talking about the sentence I just answered.

I thought about it, shook my head at him and said, "The other party is not a bad person. (To be continued.) )
