In the eyes of ordinary people, Xu Xiaobai must be a very dangerous character, because he has many mysterious places on his body that are difficult for ordinary people to understand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But in Xu Xiaobai's eyes, Lao Yaozi is also a very dangerous character, although he is already an old and frail middle-aged man, but the cunning feeling in his body always makes Xu Xiaobai subconsciously keep a certain distance from him.

A few days ago, because Xu Xiaobai's ability to exchange things anytime and anywhere aroused the suspicion of Lao Yaozi, the two once pulled out their guns and faced each other, and then the two reached a reconciliation, maintaining the same friendly feelings as usual on the surface, probably both of them knew that in this deep mountain and old forest, it would not be a good thing for either of them to be missing.

At this moment, because of this old mountain ginseng, the subtle tacit understanding between the two is about to collapse in an instant.

Xu Xiaobai looked at Lao Yaozi silently, and at the same time calculated the possibility of his surprise attack in his heart - there was no such possibility. No matter how fast he is, he can't make a sound, he can't do it faster, and as long as Lao Yaozi uses a slight force in his hand at that moment, this fragile old ginseng will be crushed by him.

At this time, Lao Yaozi sent the ginseng forward slightly, looking at the meaning, it seemed to be to reconcile, Xu Xiaobai looked at Lao Yaozi puzzled, not knowing what idea he had in his head.

Lao Yaozi said: "In the future, the two of us must rely on each other in the old forest, we must not do stupid things like cannibalism, and we must not ruin our friendship because of a ginseng." ”

Xu Xiaobai listened to what he said, and thought that he couldn't look petty, so he learned his tone and replied: "That's natural, I didn't mean that." ”

Seeing that Xu Xiaobai didn't have the determination to turn his face with himself, Lao Yaozi unconsciously felt a lot more relaxed, and he noticed that the confrontation with Xu Xiaobai had brought him so much pressure, and a layer of cold sweat had already formed on his back.

"Later life, people say that twisted melons are not sweet, after all, this ginseng is also a rare thing, no one will give it to anyone for no reason, and the other will not be convinced, do you say it."

Xu Xiaobai was noncommittal, waiting for the old medicine to continue to speak, he wanted to see what medicine was sold in this person's gourd.

Seeing that Xu Xiaobai didn't speak, Lao Yaozi continued to take care of himself: "I know your thoughts, you have to use this ginseng for your own use, but what I mean is to sell it." If you separate one person and a half, it is better not to sell it, but it is better not to sell it. Therefore, the ginseng belongs to you, and you use it, but you have to give me half of the money for this ginseng. ”

Xu Xiaobai sighed, and his heart turned out to be what it meant. This method is also simple, Lao Yaozi is good at distinguishing ginseng, and he also understands the details of ginseng, he can estimate the market value of this ginseng to eight or nine, and then as long as Xu Xiaobai gives half of the ginseng value to Lao Yaozi, he will no longer grab ginseng with Xu Xiaobai. Speaking of which, Xu Xiaobai wants to take advantage of it, because the estimated value of Lao Yaozi is the market price of ginseng, but this level of ginseng can usually participate in the auction, and the auction price is always higher than the market price.

Xu Xiaobai nodded and said, "Since you said so, I naturally agree, there is no problem." It's just that I don't have so much money for the time being, so I can only wait until I go out and then find a way to give you the money for ginseng. ”

Old Yaozi said generously: "That's nature." He continued: "This ginseng is very expensive, I'm afraid that you will accidentally hurt it, so it is safer to put it in my medicine basket." As he spoke, he carefully put the ginseng into his medicine basket.

Xu Xiaobai laughed in his heart, but he didn't stop him, a character like Lao Yaozi in his heart is really alive. He said that he was generous, but in fact, the ginseng still went into his medicine basket, and when he went out, if he didn't give him money, he naturally wouldn't be able to get the ginseng.

Lao Yaozi took out a cigarette case, lit a cigarette for himself and Xu Xiaobai, and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone: "People, they are always selfish." You see how many people have fought back and forth throughout the ages, harming and harming, and never dying. The two of us are not all the way, and it is also a fate to be able to come to this old forest together this time. In order to avoid unnecessary danger in the future due to the contradictions between the two of us, the two of us must set a principle. ”

Xu Xiaobai listened to what he said, although he made the contradiction between the two clear, but it was more useful to listen to it than to hide it. Lao Yaozi said: "This principle is that no matter who is dissatisfied with whom in the future, it must be said in a down-to-earth manner, and the two of them will discuss and solve it." If you really can't solve it, go out and talk about it. If anyone stabs someone in the back because he is dissatisfied with the other, he will go to hell after death. ”

This is already an oath. But Xu Xiaobai still felt that this was not ruthless enough, such a thing as going to hell, no matter whether the old medicine was afraid or not, he himself was not afraid anyway. Because since Lin Xing's accident, every day of his life has been hell.

"Let's change it, it's better to swear by the person closest to you." Xu Xiaobai took Lao Yaozi's words and said, "I will swear in the name of my wife, if I Xu Xiaobai stabs you in the back, I will never find the king of ambergris, and I will never be able to save my wife." ”

When Lao Yaozi saw Xu Xiaobai standing on the ladder, he also admired this person's cleanliness very much. But he was embarrassed: "I don't have a wife......

"It's okay, you can swear by your sister."

Lao Yaozi's face darkened, as if he didn't expect Xu Xiaobai to know his special feelings for his sister, but after a while, he returned to normal, at his age, there was something unspeakable, all abnormal feelings have turned into normal things. He said sternly: "I swear to the sky that if I dare to have ill intentions towards Xu Xiaobai behind my back, my sister's health will get worse and worse, and she will finally die." ”

The two swore their own swears, and finally let go of the previous mustard and returned to the state of honesty with each other. Xu Xiaobai thought in his heart, this bad old man is an authentic farmer, and his name is very elegant. It wasn't until today that he knew what Lao Yaozi's real name was. I also understood why the people in the village liked to call him Lao Yaozi instead of his real name, because his real name was really too difficult for rural people who couldn't read a basket of big characters.

The two continued to move forward, after the harvest of wild ginseng this time, the old medicine was certainly happy, Xu Xiaobai's mood was also much brighter, since he could find the first one, he would find the second, third, and even more, now only a month has passed, and there is still a long time before the one-year deadline, and he still has a lot of time to find.

Lao Qing followed behind the two of them, not understanding what had just happened between the two.

When the sun reached due south, it was the middle of the day, but the noon here was worse than the evening in the lower latitudes, and the sun was pitifully lingering not far from the horizon, leaving Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi with a thin thought. The two of them set up the stove and began to cook.

Lunch was very simple, boiled beef, Xu Xiaobai cut a whole five catties of beef and boiled it in the pot, and Lao Yaozi was responsible for adding the ingredients. Lao Qing was gobbling up the five catties of raw meat that Xu Xiaobai gave him, and the amount of food it ate was larger than Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi combined. Since arriving in the depths of this old forest, all the delicacies of the mountains and seas have lost their meaning, and if they want to survive here, they need a lot of calories, so Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi's staple food is beef, and they have to eat more than two catties of beef every day to maintain calories.

Lao Yaozi drank a whole bottle of liquor with fragrant beef, Xu Xiaobai didn't dip the wine, he didn't need to use the heat of liquor to keep out the cold like Lao Yaozi, so he didn't want to make himself an alcoholic.

After eating, simply tidying up, without washing the dishes, and dumping all the food scraps in the snow, nature will slowly purify everything they leave behind. The two of them and the dog continued to hurry, and before they had taken a few steps, Lao Qing suddenly stopped, bared out his back fangs, and roared loudly desperately.

Xu Xiaobai said in his heart that there were beasts on his side, and hurriedly drank Lao Qing, for fear that its warning would attract more beasts. In the past, Lao Qing warned him, but as long as Xu Xiaobai stopped drinking, Lao Qing knew that Xu Xiaobai had received his warning signal, so he obediently quieted down. But today it was unusual, no matter how Xu Xiaobai drank it, Lao Qing's roar didn't stop, but the roaring voice changed from high-pitched to low.

There is only one possibility for this to happen: Lao Qing thinks that he has encountered something extremely dangerous, and no matter how much he warns him, it is not too much to warn.

Xu Xiaobai silently glanced at Lao Yaozi, and saw that the latter was looking around with great seriousness, trying to find out what the object of Lao Qing's warning was. Inadvertently, Lao Yaozi's eyes met Xu Xiaobai's eyes, and Xu Xiaobai heard Lao Yaozi muttering, "Could it be ......?"

With a roar, there was a sudden gust of wind for no reason in the forest, the woods sounded, and the snow on the trees fell suddenly, and the next moment, a behemoth rushed out, it supported its body with its thick hind legs, and its two front legs waved like two human hands, humming and walking in the direction of Xu Xiaobai and Lao Yaozi.

After this guy stood up, he was two and a half meters tall and nearly one and a half meters wide, as if even the sun was covered by this guy. Looking at this huge and uncovered figure, Xu Xiaobai secretly said My obedientness, it turns out that this thing is really as terrible as the legend, no, it is even more shocking than the legend.

Lao Yaozi looked excited, and shouted to greet him, Xu Xiaobai listened to him shouting: "I can be regarded as looking for you!" ”

Xu Xiaobai naturally knew why Lao Yaozi was so excited, but for Lao Yaozi's behavior that was tantamount to suicide, Xu Xiaobai couldn't tolerate it, he was retreating rapidly, but at this time, he saw Lao Yaozi coming up, and he would collide with the big guy in a few seconds, and he was busy changing direction in the retreat, and his body shot forward like an arrow from the string, and finally rushed to the side before Lao Yaozi met the big guy.

The next moment, the two front paws of the big guy pounced on the position where the old medicine had just been, Xu Xiaobai only felt that the earth trembled, and those two claws left a terrifying hole in the snow. If he had stepped on the body of the old medicine just now, this old guy would have been a puddle of rotten meat by now.

What a scary man-bear!
