Indeed, this is exactly what he intended.

I thought that the loss of two of his companions might have some kind of psychological effect on him. For Granny Zhang's request at that time, she may not continue to comply with it.

But apparently I thought too much, and maybe for them, the accepted mission would have to be fulfilled no matter what. This also shows from the side that even in the mind of ghosts, there may be something more admirable than ordinary humans.

"Pack your things and keep going." I waved my hand and said.

We have hope of finding the third uncle again, and even this little ghost is so persistent, what reason do we have to give up.

We took our things with us and followed the little ghost on the journey to find the third uncle.

This march was much better than the previous days. Because the imp can go with us. He is now trying to match our pace, that is, we are walking at our own pace.

We don't have to chase them closely, as we did the other day. This also gives us a good relief of physical strength.

It's just one thing, this vast mountain, the deeper we go, we don't know when we will be able to find the third uncle smoothly.

But we all think in our hearts, as long as we are on the road, there is hope.

And the little imp was evidently not aimless, but felt another place, and he led us with him without any hesitation.

Seeing his confident appearance, I also thought to myself, maybe I can really find the third uncle and them this time. Because in this big mountain, there shouldn't be a second zombie appearing.

Even if there are zombies, the chance of zombies is almost non-existent. Only when the ground is stiff, the heart is warm, which will cause the little ghost to chase in the wrong direction.

So, we are also full of confidence. Under the leadership of the little imp, he walked almost all night until dawn.

We only saw the figure of the imp dangling in front of us, and then disappeared again.

It seems that this little imp is much more capable of action than we are, and as long as he doesn't want us to see him, no matter how hard we try, it will be in vain.

Even though we've slowed down this time, we're still a little tired from walking for hours on end.

Ma Jian was even more tired and panting, even if it was not dawn, it was estimated that it would be difficult for us to move forward again.

Fat Dahai helped Ma Tan, looked around, and said, "Boss, hurry up and find a place to set up a tent to rest." If not, take a break for a day. I look at the situation of the old horse, I'm afraid I can't hold on. ”

Ma Tan took a sip: "Phew, who...... Who can't hold on? I can do it, leave me alone, just rest during the day and continue to rush at night. ”

Looking at the old horse's appearance, I know that I still overestimated Ma Tan's physical strength. Even if we slowed down as much as we could, he was still a bit of a strong crossbow.

But Ma Jian definitely wouldn't give in, so I had to wave my hand: "Settle down first, and see the situation at night." ”

Ma Jian nodded, suddenly sniffed, and said, "I smell a fishy smell, there should be a water source nearby, let's find a place close to the water source to rest, so that it is convenient to get water."

。 If it's live water, you might even be able to catch a few fish. ”

Fat Dahai also sniffed and asked, "Where does it smell of water?" Why didn't I smell it? ”

I gave the fat sea a blank look: "That's the experience, you know?" Learn a little from the old horse. ”

I patted Tie Zhu on the head: "Tie Zhu, take us to find a water source." ”

Tie Zhu screamed, shook his head and walked ahead.

We followed the iron pillar and walked less than 200 meters away in the diagonal direction, and sure enough, we heard the sound of rushing water.

Fat Dahai gave Ma Jian a thumbs up: "Old horse, I'm convinced." Your nose is smarter than an iron pillar. ”

Ma Jian scolded: "You kid, are you saying that I am a dog's nose?" It's not big or small, if I usually have to beat you, but the iron pillar is not an ordinary dog, you compare me with the iron pillar, I'm quite happy. ”

We climbed up a dirt hill in front of us and looked down from the top of the hill.

I saw a waterhole in a valley.

The waterhole was blue in color, and when viewed down from the hillside, it looked down like a sapphire set in a turquoise lawn.

From our vantage point, on the west side of the waterhole, there is a small waterfall that flows down the mountain. The sound of water we heard should come from this side.

When Ma Tan saw the waterhole, he nodded and said, "Judging from the color of this water, it should be a living water." Let's set up camp by the lake. However, it is not too close to the waterhole, about 50 meters away from the waterhole, and it is better to have a site with stones on the ground. Also note that the wind is blowing from the south and we need to camp on the south side of the lake. ”

Ma Tan's reasoning made us all a little puzzled.

The fat man couldn't think of anything in his heart, so he directly asked Ma Tan the reason.

Ma Tan explained: "The reason is very simple. The situation of the water in this mountain is unknown. There is a lot of water that is exposed to the sun, and a poisonous miasma will be produced inside. If we camp below the direction of the wind, the miasma will be blown by the wind, and then it will be difficult for us to be poisoned. Although this is a living water, we have to guard against it. In addition, it is not too close to the lake, which is also the same reason. At the same time, the surface of the lake is damp, and it is easy to breed some poisonous insects. We looked for rocky ground, where the ground was stiff and more suitable for camping. ”

I have to say that Ma Tan's theory of survival in the mountains is very useful to us, and it has also avoided a lot of trouble.

We searched along the lake according to Ma Tan's instructions, and found a flat place on the south bank of the lake and set up camp.

The so-called camping is to set up two tents and prepare a pile of firewood for the fire.

We don't have anything to eat in stock, and we need to find some temporarily.

Fortunately, there is water here, the air is humid, and there are many wild fruits growing nearby. After Ma Tan's identification, some edible ones were identified and picked to temporarily satisfy hunger.

After eating, our main task is to rest. Because everything is preparing for the continuation of the night.

The physical exertion of the past few days was huge, and by the afternoon, the little wild fruit I ate had already been digested.

Fat Dahai was even more hungry and couldn't stand it, so he simply got up and wanted to find something to eat.

Seeing the fat sea get up and toss, Ma Tan also got out of the tent, took out a simple fishing rod from his backpack and threw it to him: "If you are idle, go dig a few earthworms and catch a few fish for us to eat." ”

When the fat sea saw it, he was overjoyed: "Old horse, you still have a fishing rod when you go out, why didn't you take out this good thing earlier?" ”
