At the foot of the mountain, there will be people from the rivers and lakes on the road walking towards Luoxia Mountain. The leaders of the Jianghu Scattered Visitors also continue to show their magic skills and expand their teams. Some of the teams had enough people to rest and recuperate before heading into the mountains.

Many of the small sects that had rested at the foot of the mountain before began to ascend the mountain one after another. Including the Yuqing Gate that is full of Daogu.

Shi Jianzhuan of Feiyun Village saw that the women of Yuqingmen had already entered the mountain, so he also led his men and followed Yuqingmen towards the mountains and forests.

Although Fan Sanpang was still trying his best to pull people around, he didn't get any of them.

However, Fan Sanpang is a real person, Xiao Ding chats with him, and everything he knows will be told to Xiao Ding in detail. Even his own troubles were told without reservation.

It turned out that Fan Sanpang used to work as a cook and nurse in a large family in Yongzhou City. Not long ago, because he accidentally bumped into the head of the family and his brother and daughter-in-law in the corner of the back garden. So, the head of the house found an excuse and kicked him out.

Fan Sanpang, who had nowhere to go after coming out, heard that there were artifacts in Luoxia Mountain, so he also rushed over with many individual visitors from the rivers and lakes.

Fan Sanpang has lived in Yongzhou City for many years, and has frequent contact with many individual tourists in the rivers and lakes, and knows many anecdotes about the rivers and lakes.

For example, the leader of the other teams, Jin Million is in the silk business in Yongzhou City, his business is big, and he makes the most money; Wanjin Oil is sold in the city of Yongzhou; Zhu Fen is a butcher who sells pork; Bai Zheteng is an idle person, he will be a martial artist today, a nurse tomorrow, and a dart master the day after tomorrow, and he will not be able to do anything for a long time anyway......

From Fan Sanpang's mouth, Xiao Ding also had a general understanding of the Jianghu sect in the Great Song Kingdom.

The people of the Great Song Dynasty were martial arts, and in the sixteen states of the Great Song Dynasty, each state would have at least one or two well-known martial arts sects or martial arts families.

Some of these Jianghu sects or families have a long history and have been famous for a long time, but now they are in decline, such as Yujian Villa in Youzhou and Yuqingmen in Jinzhou; Some are emerging sects that have just risen in recent decades, and now they are in their heyday, such as Jinzhou Xuanyun Sect, Youzhou Lanbing Sect, Qingzhou Shark Hunting Gang, Jiaozhou Tianluomen, and so on.

There are also some families or sects that are not new or old, but are also famous all over the world, such as Yanzhou Cangyu School, Yongzhou Tianwumen, and Lingjian Villa and Xijian Villa, which are as famous as Yujian Villa and Meijian Villa, Lingjian Villa is in Yangzhou, and Xijian Villa is in Jiaozhou. The four mountain villas are two south and two north, so the Jianghu people call them "the four major mountain villas of Wulin".

In addition to these sects, there are also some gangs and families, but they also occupy a decisive and low-ranking position in the martial arts, such as Jingzhou Qingyunguan, Zhongzhou Chiyu Pavilion, Xuzhou Lingyou Castle, Jizhou Yinyue Dart Bureau, Yangzhou Jinxiufang and so on.

Listening to Fan Sanpang, there are hundreds of sect families on the rivers and lakes of the Great Song Kingdom, large and small, who can be named, and there are at least dozens of well-known sect families.

These sect families have a good reputation and a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes; There are those who specialize in cultivating without asking about the world, and there are also those who go around to kill evil and hoe adultery; There are mysterious and unpredictable things that outsiders can't understand, and there are also ...... who act like good and evil and don't play cards according to common sense. Anyway, it boils down to one sentence: the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds!

Xiao Ding chatted with Fan Sanpang until noon, and he didn't see Fan Sanpang pull another person.

The old man named Mu Hong in the same team just sat cross-legged under the tree next to him and closed his eyes to recuperate. Mu Yi, who was dressed as a man, was quietly listening to Xiao Ding and Fan Sanpang chatting on the side, and when he heard the funny part, he secretly pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes were bent into crescent moons, and he looked very cute.

Seeing that the teams or sects around him left the foot of the mountain one by one and advanced towards the mountain. Xiao Ding began to get a little anxious. He is different from these people, these people may just come to see the excitement, or try their luck, and enter the mountain early or late, but he is here to find someone, and if he arrives a moment late, Mei Ruoshuang's danger will be one more point.

Originally, I was expecting to gather a few more people to go into the mountain together, at least to take care of each other. Even if you encounter danger, you can carry it more than once. Unexpectedly, his bad luck manifested himself again, and he joined the team with the smallest number of people in a daze, and then, no one wanted to join their team again.

"I said Fan Sanfat, I think it's difficult for you to recruit people anymore. Why don't we go up the mountain first, if you wait for you to pull enough people, it is estimated that people will have already found the artifact and gone down the mountain. After Xiao Ding chatted with Fan Sanpang and became familiar with him, he also called him by his nickname.

"Brother Xiaoding, don't worry, even if the four of us enter the mountain, we have to eat lunch before entering the ......," Fan Sanpang said, and reached out to remove the iron pot he was carrying behind his back, and then miraculously took out a bunch of spices, bacon, vegetables, and steamed buns......

Seeing Xiao Ding and Mu Yiyi, who was dressed as a man, stared at each other......

There are so many dead branches and leaves at the foot of the mountain that you can just collect a few of them. Fan Sanpang found three stones and placed them in a zigzag shape, and put a temporary small stove on the pot rack.

It didn't take long for a pot of fragrant green vegetable broth to cook. Fan Sanpang distributed the steamed buns to everyone, but there was only one bowl to hold soup and drink.

Xiao Ding and Fan Sanpang don't care, the two share a bowl to serve soup, and you and I are happy to eat one bite at a time. The old man named Mu Hong smelled the aroma of the broth, so he scooped it with a spoon and drank it directly. And the girl named Mu Yi was a little disgusted, just chewing the steamed buns dryly, and refused to come over to drink the broth.

Fan Sanpang was still being polite over there for some reason, but Xiao Ding secretly said in his heart, it was strange that she was willing to come over and drink! How can a girl's family share a bowl with a strange man?

Fortunately, the girl had a water bag, so she ate steamed buns with cold water, so she didn't choke.

When the four of them had eaten and drunk enough, they looked around again, and there was no one around. The others had already gone into the mountains.

"Alright, let's go too." Xiao Ding said helplessly, he thought that he could get up early in the morning and enter the mountain early, but he didn't expect to encounter such a situation.

The four of them packed up their things and began to walk towards the mountain.

It's not that Xiao Ding doesn't want to enter the mountain early, it's just that if he enters the mountain alone, he is indeed a little stunned.

The first two times I entered Luoxia Mountain, I didn't go far before I encountered a wolf and a bear. After listening to Mei Ruoxue's story this time, he knew that there were many dangers in the mountain. The premise of saving people by yourself is that you have to save your own life first. If you can't even save your own life, how can you save people?

On the way into the mountain, Xiao Ding also planned to make some marks on the road to avoid getting lost after entering the mountain.

However, when he looked at the flowers and trees on both sides of the road, he found that there were man-made marks everywhere, all kinds of things......

Looking at it this way, it doesn't seem like it's easy to get lost!

However......

Xiao Ding still thinks too much......

As the pace progressed, the mountains and forests became denser and denser, and after crossing a few small peaks, there was no road ahead.

Xiao Ding looked at the artificially made marks along the way, there were all in which direction, and it was messy, and it was difficult for anyone to distinguish which route was correct and which route was wrong.

At this time, Xiao Ding looked behind him again, there were marks in all directions, and he couldn't tell which direction was the road he was taking.

"Which direction shall we go?" Xiao Ding looked at Fan Sanpang and Mu Hongmuyi behind him, the three of them, you look at me, I look at you, spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders. Obviously, they can't tell the direction either.

It seems that in the primeval mountain forest, it is not impossible to get lost if you make a mark. If you do too much of this mark, you still can't tell the direction.

"Otherwise, let's follow the same mark, whether it's right or wrong." Xiao Ding suggested.

"Okay, let's do it." Fan Sanpang was also a little wilted at this time, and seemed to have forgotten that he was the leader of this team.

The four of them chose a marker that was easier to make out and walked down it.

As soon as I couldn't finish the tea, I heard the girl named Mu Yi scream "ah......
