Chapter 155: Far Away
The distance between S city and X city is not too far, the plane is only a little more than two hours away, and when I arrived at the airport in S city, it was just dark.
For the sake of safety, the two groups of people took two separate cars.
In this short two-hour journey, the three have established a deep friendship, especially the expectations about game have exceeded 99+, Chang Hu also said that before going up the mountain, he would buy some salt, pepper, cumin and other seasonings in the supermarket at the bottom of the mountain, and those who didn't know saw their group chat information were expected to mistake it for three high school students who were about to go on an autumn outing.
The taxi stopped at the bottom of the mountain, and as far as the eye could see, the mountainside was hidden in the clouds, and the season was already winter, so just one stop at the bottom of the mountain made it feel cold.
The wineries and supermarkets at the bottom of the mountain are very dilapidated, and from a distance they look like shops from thirty or forty years ago, and the waiter goes out directly to pour the swill into the river below the mountain, and you can smell a sour smell from a distance of more than ten meters.
Gu Yun and Wang Lu entered the shop with a grocery store sign, the owner was an old man with a hairstyle like a fire cloud evil god, the old man put down a bowl of noodles, and a newspaper was spread on the counter.
When he saw the two of them come in, he raised his eyes and glanced at them.
"Up the mountain?"
"Hmm."
"Five pieces of mineral water for a bottle, three pieces of steamed bread for one, seven pieces of iced tea, and ten pieces of cola."
You're a black shop, right?
Wang Lu almost blurted out, this mineral water is two pieces in a normal supermarket, four steamed buns downstairs, three pieces of iced tea and cola, and this store will more than double when it opens its mouth.
At first glance, this store has everything, steamed buns, steamed buns, popsicle drinks, hardware materials, headphone batteries, and everything is available.
The old man probably saw that there was no other place to buy things nearby, so he opened his mouth so loudly.
"Try to spend as much as you can when you can, don't run out of money when the time comes."
"What do you mean by that?"
"It doesn't mean anything else, I've been running a shop here for decades, and I've seen a lot of young people who have gone up the mountain and never come down."
"You don't have to bother, five bottles of mineral water."
Wang Lu took out 25 yuan distressedly, this money is a trivial matter, the key is that he was not happy to be cheated by this old man.
In the past, he cheated others, where is it the turn of others to cheat him?
"Ho."
The old man took out five bottles of mineral water and put them on the cabinet, and his attitude was very unfriendly.
"Give me a plastic bag."
"Three plastic bags each."
"you."
Wang Lu took three bottles of mineral water, asked Gu Yun to take two, and walked out of the door angrily.
After a while, the three people from the "Late Night Canteen" gathered at the bottom of the mountain, and Chang Hu's face was not very good-looking.
"I just asked, the food here is too expensive, the key is that the level is poor, it's just a roadside stall of dishes, collecting money from a five-star hotel, the hotel environment is even worse, the room has a power outage after 11 o'clock, and you have to come out to play at night to wash with water, and you can only go to the stream below the mountain to take a cold shower."
On this night, I will collect five hundred dollars.
The supporting facilities under the mountain are a little different from what Chang Hu imagined, even if Gu Yun doesn't say that he wants to take them to taste roast suckling pig, he really can't live in this kind of broken shop.
As a four-time league champion, he stayed in the best suites wherever he went.
Having made so much money on the reef, he would never treat himself badly.
"I found a serious problem."
Wang Lu's face was solemn, "We didn't seem to have considered the accommodation problem before. ”
The facilities at the bottom of the mountain are still like this, let alone on the mountain.
Yinlong Temple is located in the depths of the mountains, surrounded by deep mountains and old forests, vegetables have to be planted by themselves, water has to be picked by themselves, the guest rooms at night do not talk about air conditioning and heating, may really go to the temple and even have no mobile phone signal.
At that time, it was really isolated from the world, and I couldn't communicate with the outside world.
Wang Lu looked up and saw that the mountain path was winding, and the more he went up, the steeper it became, and the sky was hazy.
This is thanks to Chang Hu and Gu Yun by his side, otherwise he is afraid that he will have to find an excuse to go home.
"These problems are easy to solve."
As a master of survival in the wild, Gu Yun has experienced all kinds of extremely harsh environments, and it is nothing more than a little cold here, "When you get to the mountain, you just follow me." ”
"Gu Shizhu, Wang Shizhu, Chang Shizhu, you are the first guests to arrive, and there are some precautions I want to remind you."
Senior brother Chi Xin walked over and said, "When you arrive at the temple, please don't leave the temple after nightfall, no matter what strange noises you hear, you must not go to the back mountain alone, some time ago, a few little junior brothers who lacked concentration lost their lives." ”
"Is there anything unclean in the forest outside the temple?"
"That's not true, it's just that after the seal of the Demon Suppression Tower was shaken, the fierce beasts on the mountain became very fierce under the influence of the evil qi, and the host didn't want you to be attacked by the fierce beasts."
Master Huijue specially told them again and again about this before leaving.
Not only the invited guests, but also any disciples were not allowed to leave the temple at night, and if they arrived too late, they had to spend the night at the bottom of the mountain, and then they could not go up until dawn the next day.
Among the guests at the banquet, not everyone practiced martial arts, and there were many people who practiced the Dharma, and these people often fell into passivity when attacked by fierce beasts.
He had discussed with Senior Brother Chi Xin again and again just now, and felt that it was still time to arrive at the temple before it was completely dark.
"But now you may be attacked by wild beasts when you go up the mountain, I wonder if you would like to stay at the bottom of the mountain for one night, or go up the mountain now?"
"You mean there's a beast attack?"
"Exactly."
"That's great...... Oh no, I mean it's too dangerous. ”
As soon as Chi Xin mentioned the beast, the first thing that poured into the minds of the three of them was not danger, but all kinds of mountain delicacies.
After a whole day of jolting outside, they're a little hungry now, too.
Since the beasts outside the Hidden Dragon Temple were so enthusiastic, they could only say that this was really a great hospitality, and they could only reluctantly feast on it.
Chang Hu: I just bought all the seasonings, and I also bought some chili noodles by the way.
Chang Hu took out his mobile phone and quietly reported the progress of his action just now, and after looking at the menu of the restaurant, which really couldn't arouse his appetite, he became more interested in Gu Yun's roast suckling pig.
The more I thought about it, the hungrier I became, and I wanted to go up the mountain right now.
Gu Yun: Which of you brought knives?
Wang Lu: I have this, the initial plan is this, after going up the mountain for a while, we will leave the temple under the pretext of going out to investigate, don't forget to bring some water and dry food when you come out, if you only eat barbecue, it will be easy to get tired.
Chang Hu: No problem, Qi Le also prepared some protein powder and fruits for me when I went out.
Wang Lu: Let's bring it out together.
"Three donors, what do you think?"
"Go up the mountain, of course you have to go up the mountain."
Wang Lu coughed lightly and said, "You can remind us where there are more wild boars in a while, and we can avoid danger as much as possible." ”
