Volume 1: The Twin Towers Chapter 172: Into the Mountain
In the second half of the thank-you banquet, Lu Yao directly took Miao Jingtian to "slip", Ouyang Chuxue's appeal was very strong, Lu Yao's plan went very smoothly, and the three of them took advantage of a little artificial "little chaos" in the crowd and left directly in a Volkswagen Passat without a license plate that Li Lan had already arranged.
The reason why it is said to be a small man-made chaos is because the few people surrounding Miao Qing and the two young people at the banquet were arranged by Lu Yao in advance, most of them were the kitchen staff of the Yadu Hotel, and they should work hard when the boss told them, not to mention that they also heard Lu Yao's impassioned speech and plan, and everyone spared no effort.
Until a few people left, those "actors" were still reluctant to disperse, and they kept surrounding Miao Qing and the others.
The Passat drove directly out of the city of the Twin Towers and came to an abandoned car repair shop, and Lu Yao and Miao Jingtian cautiously entered an office in the car repair shop.
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Fang and I have known each other for many years, you are here as if you are in your own home, you are welcome." The owner of the garage is a middle-aged man in his forties, and he has been very warm to the two of them since Lu Yao entered the house.
"Uncle, thank you, you go and get busy, and prepare a pickup truck for me by the way." This place was told to Lu Yao by Fang Jinghua, and Lu Yao was not polite, at this time, time was tight, and he couldn't care about being modest, so he said directly.
"Don't worry, the car is ready, it's my own daily purchase, you can drive away." After the boss finished speaking, he gave the two of them a glass of boiled water, and left, closing the door with his hand.
Lu Yao still came to the window very carefully, looked around carefully, and did not find anything abnormal, but he was still very cautious, closed his eyes, and felt the wind and grass in Fang Yuan with his heart, until he confirmed that no one had any abnormal conditions, and then came back to sit next to Miao Jingtian and said, "Brother Miao, what is the situation with the note you gave me that day?" ”
Miao Jingtian sorted out his thoughts and said: "This matter is a long story, and time is tight, so I will make a long story short." ”
Lu Yao nodded.
"Since we settled in Miaojiatun at the foot of Yunwu Mountain, we have always been picking herbs for hygiene, most of the villagers are good at picking herbs, and these are also the main income of the villagers, but occasionally they will make some Chinese medicine pills, and then send them to other places to sell, because the finished product is always more profitable than selling herbs directly. It's been like this, our life has always been like this, but in the past six months, I don't know what happened to my uncle, he always brought some people to the tunli to talk about things. Miao Jingtian said originally: "These can still be reluctantly accepted, but recently, I found that the uncle seems to have changed as if he has changed a person, and the uncle who has not touched alchemy for many years suddenly began to refine the pill again, and all the refined pills were given to those outsiders." ”
"Once I was looking for the uncle, I accidentally entered his Dan room, I found that his alchemy residues were some highly toxic drugs, which made me very puzzling, and then I took some herb residues to the uncle to ask about it, but unexpectedly he was severely reprimanded, and locked me up for some days. The day you came to see me happened to be the day after I was released, and as you can see, I'm now being watched by my uncle's people. Miao Jingtian did not hide it at all.
"Brother Miao, what do you know about your uncle, can you tell me about it?" Lu Yao felt that he couldn't directly tell Miao Jingtian what he knew in Yunwu Mountain, not to mention whether the so-called Miao Fu was true, even if it was true, such a thing was said, Miao Jingtian estimated that it would be difficult to accept it for a while, and he needed to slowly guide Miao Jingtian to tell and accept this matter.
"I don't know much about Uncle." Miao Jingtian said helplessly.
Miao Jingtian's words surprised Lu Yao very much, and he couldn't help asking: "Isn't he your uncle, how can you not know much?" ”
"In the past, I was deeply affected by rheumatism and bone poison, and I didn't have the heart to care about these things, especially after my father's sudden death, I didn't have this leisure, so in order not to be hurt by the pain, I isolated myself from other people, and devoted myself to the study of medicine, I think this is so that I can forget the pain." Miao Jingtian glanced at Lu Yao with some embarrassment, he felt that his experience was somewhat similar to Lu Yao's, but Lu Yao had always lived a positive and optimistic life, which made him feel a little ashamed, but he still reluctantly said: "It wasn't until later that you cured my rheumatism and bone poison, and I seemed to be a different person, I began to care about the affairs of the clan, but knowing this, I found out that I don't know when the uncle seemed to have changed as if he had changed a person, he who was originally amiable became a little irritable, and he punished the clansmen at every turn. There are already many complaints in the clan, but everyone respects his superb medical skills and has always obeyed his orders. ”
"Brother Miao, are your uncle and your father brothers?" Lu Yao then asked.
"No, my father passed on to my uncle's family, and they are not brothers." Miao Jingtian replied.
"Then does your uncle have a brother?" Lu Yao continued to ask.
"Yes!" Miao Jingtian still thought about Lu Yao's question for a while before saying: "Although I haven't seen it, I heard the old people in the clan and my father once said that my uncle has a twin brother, who seems to be called Miao Lu, and his and my uncle's names take the meaning of "Fu Lu Shuangquan". ”
Hearing Miao Jingtian say this, Lu Yao's heart had a trace of his own thoughts about what happened in the Yunwu Mountain, at least so far, none of what the people and bears in the mountain said was false.
The two then talked about some other things, after all, they hadn't seen each other for a long time, although the two had not had a deep friendship before, but because of like-minded reasons, there were still many common topics, and the conversation was endless.
Until the sky darkened, seeing that the time was almost up, there was still no movement, and Lu Yao felt that this was the best time to enter the mountain.
"Brother Miao, I am in a hurry, I need to go to Yunwu Mountain, you are familiar with the terrain in the mountains, you can take me there!" Lu Yao asked tentatively.
"No problem, you said I'd go." Miao Jingtian readily agreed, stood up and was ready to set off at any time.
Lu Yao is not modest, the two of them directly drove the Great Wall pickup truck prepared for them by the boss into the mountain, although Lu Yao does not have a driver's license, but his driving skills are still very pure, after all, in the 89th Army in those days is not in vain, and entering the mountain is not entering the city, and he is not afraid of being caught by the traffic police.
……
……
Yunwu Mountain at night is very beautiful, although it is not the first time Lu Yao has come, but the first two times time is tight, one is to rescue Lin Jiayi, and the other is a military exercise, he has no time to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the mountain, although this time he also came with a purpose, but after all, he was not so nervous, he looked at the car while looking at the beautiful scenery shrouded in the night.
The light of the stars dotted the mountain road they traveled through the treetops, because of the night, the humidity in the mountains is relatively heavy, and the air is full of vitality, and the mood is particularly comfortable between inhaling and exhaling.
The Yunwu Mountain at night is quiet, and the world is much quieter without the birds, but at the same time, the Yunwu Mountain at night is not quiet, because as the car goes deeper, occasionally some slightly larger wild animals are frightened by the roar of the pickup truck engine and flash past the side of the car.
"Lu Yao, the front is the Wild Wolf Valley, which belongs to the forbidden area of this mountain forest, you better bypass it from his right, it will be relatively much safer there." Miao Jingtian looked at Lu Yao's enjoyment, and didn't want to disturb him, but thinking of the danger of that area, he still had to remind him.
In Miao Jingtian's eyes, he always thought that Lu Yao was just a medical wizard with superb medical skills, and he didn't know that Lu Yao's most powerful thing was actually his own exercises, and medical skills were only secondary.
"Brother Miao, what I want to do is in the wild wolf valley you said." Lu Yao looked at Miao Jingtian and said jokingly: "How is it, Brother Miao, are you afraid?" ”
Miao Jingtian was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard Lu Yao's words, and then said firmly: "Since this is the case, then I am not afraid!" ”
Lu Yao didn't say anything, and he didn't joke anymore, he knew that Miao Jingtian's intention was better than anything, that was enough, at least he didn't work in vain this time, and he could be regarded as helping someone who deserved help.
After continuing to drive for about ten minutes, the car drove into an area with a small valley-like terrain on the mountainside, which was the so-called Wild Wolf Valley in Miao Jingtian's mouth, and it was also the place where they released the little white wolf last time.
There were some chaotic rocks piled up there at the mouth of the valley, which were originally very inconspicuous, but Lu Yao stared at them for a long time, and he still muttered words in his mouth: "One, two, three......"
He didn't stop until he counted until the seventh.
Then he said to Miao Jingtian very seriously: "Brother Miao, what I want to do may be a little dangerous, for the sake of safety, you can swallow this pill, which can be regarded as an insurance." ”
Saying that, Lu Yao took out a delicate wooden box from his arms, and when he opened it, there was an emerald green pill quietly inside, and as the wooden box was opened, a refreshing and rich aura spread around.
Miao Jingtian didn't think about it, he took it and swallowed it. Then he said to Lu Yao: "Okay, can we go now?" ”
Lu Yao said unhurriedly: "It's still a little early, let's rest here for a while, and then set off later, otherwise going early will not only not be good, but there will be danger." ”
After Lu Yao finished speaking, he sat on the grass, Miao Jingtian saw Lu Yao sit down, and he sat down himself, and the two of them looked up at the sun, moon and stars in the sky very bored.
