1596.Chapter 1596 - Really Uncultured
"Don't worry, I have another one here." Liang Kexiu smiled, took out another piece of printing paper, but there was a colorful drawing on it, and said:
"This is a satellite map of Longmen Mountain that I took with reference to Master's base map. I have made repeated comparisons, and I think these places are the most likely. ”
Wan Shugao took it and saw that there were several red circles marked on the satellite map, which was indeed in the hinterland of Longmen Mountain. The red circle surrounds a mountain peak, and around the peak, it forms a basin.
"How far is it from here to that peak?" Wan Shugao asked.
"It's about more than 20 kilometers, the mountain road in front is impassable, and there are five kilometers behind, so you can only walk there." Liang Kexiu pointed to the map and said, "If we go into the mountains, we have to make some preparations, bring food and water, and it's best to find a local guide." ”
Wan Shugao thought for a while and said, "It's okay, buy something from this town first." ”
The two of them set out to shop while searching for a guide in the town. But the town here is still about fifty miles away from the location circled by Liang Kexiu, and the locals are not familiar with it.
The owner of a shop said, "The place you are going to is called Wild Ghost Mountain." From here, you have to go west through three villages in the mountains, and it is best for you to find a guide from the last one. ”
Wan Shugao and Liang Kexiu thought it was reasonable, so they found a car, took the purchased things, and went to Yeguiling.
When passing through the second village, the mountain road began to be steep, nine twists and turns, and the car drove like an ant crawling.
It wasn't until two o'clock in the afternoon that the car entered the third stockade. There was no way ahead, so Master Che lost Wan Shugao and Liang Kexiu, turned around and returned.
Yeguiling, still about ten miles west of this place, there is no road, you can only walk to it.
Liang Kexiu doesn't seem to go out often, standing in front of the quaint stockade, left, without an idea.
"Don't be afraid, come with me, I've been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, and I have a lot of experience." Wan Shugao grinned, picked up his equipment, and walked towards the stockade.
Liang Kexiu was a lot relieved and followed behind Wan Shugao.
The village is located on the hillside, and because of the influence of the topography, the houses are arranged irregularly and unevenly.
Entering the village from the east end, I walked to several houses, all of which were only my grandfathers and grandmothers and some left-behind children. walked all the way to the middle of the village, only a sister-in-law in her thirties.
"Hello sister-in-law, let me ask something." Wan Shugao stepped forward with a smile and said, "We are traveling from the city, and we want to find someone to lead the way in your village, please ask if there is a suitable person, preferably Orion." ”
"What do you mean by finding someone to lead the way? The people in the city are really uneducated, that's called a guide! The sister-in-law rolled her eyes, her Mandarin words were round, and she said, "My husband is a hunter, a part-time guide, come with me." ”
Wan Shugao's face twitched, speechless; Liang Kexiu couldn't help it, covered his mouth and snickered.
The husband of the sister-in-law was chopping firewood in the backyard when he heard the guests coming and hurriedly walked out.
Wan Shu is a big brother who is nearly forty years old, with a lean body, dark skin, and relatively capable.
"Your surname, big brother." Wan Shugao hurriedly took out a cigarette and said, "My name is Wan Shugao, this is my sister-in-law Liang Kexiu, we are going to the Wild Ghost Ridge in front, please be our guide." ”
"My name is Zhao Bing, are you going to Wild Ghost Ridge?" Zhao Bing frowned and said, "That place is haunted, we usually hunt, we all walk around, don't go over there." ”
"I'm not going to hide it, I'm a Maoshan mage, and I'm going there to catch ghosts!" Wan Shu is tall and straight.
Zhao Bing stared at Wanshu Gaotian and said, "I don't believe you can catch ghosts." ”
"If only you believed it wasn't fake money." Wan Shugao came to the fire, took out the banknote from his pocket, and said, "Five hundred a day, do you want to go?" ”
Zhao Bing and his wife summed it up and said, "Okay, five hundred a day, I agreed." But there is a word first, once I encounter danger, I will run first. If something goes wrong with you, don't blame me for not saving you. ”
Wan Shugao grinned and said, "Who saves whom, when it comes to danger, you will know!" ”
Zhao Bingjian said again: "It's a little late today, and I'll enter the mountain early tomorrow morning." ”
"No, I ask to leave immediately." Wan Shugao used money to open the way again, and said: "Go now, this half day is also your day's money, and I will also give you five hundred yuan!" ”
In order to show his sincerity, Wan Shugao first gave Zhao Bing's wife 1,000 yuan, which was regarded as a deposit.
"Okay, wait, I'll clean up!" Zhao Bing finally agreed, and turned around to pack his things.
Twenty minutes later, Zhao Bing packed up his rope and took Wan Shugao and Liang Kexiu to march towards the vast mountain.
In addition to shotguns and ammunition, Zhao Bing also brought a lot of equipment and a hunting dog. Because there is no shortage of water in the mountains, at the suggestion of Zhao Bing, Wan Shugao and Liang Kexiu left some of the drinking water and moved forward lightly.
The mountain road is steep and extremely difficult to walk.
When it was almost dusk, Zhao Bing took Wan Shugao and Liang Kexiu to a cliff.
If you want to move on, you have to walk along the cliff.
But the path in the middle of the cliff is only a foot wide, and one side is close to the stone wall, and the other side is a cliff.
"This dangerous road, about a mile long, do you dare to go there?" Zhao Bing lit a cigarette, with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "If you don't dare to go over, let's go home." Of course, the guide fee of 500 yuan is non-refundable. ”
It is estimated that Zhao Bing's heart very much hopes that Wan Shugao and them will go back. In this way, Zhao Bing's five hundred yuan will be easy to earn.
Liang Kexiu had some of Zhao Bing's cunning, rolled his eyes, and said: "I grew up in Mount Emei, and I have also walked on a more dangerous road than this." ”
After that, Liang Kexiu put the backpack in his hand, stepped on the plank road lightly, and walked forward without looking back.
"My hometown is in a mountain town, and I have been running in the mountains for decades, and I have also walked more dangerous roads than this!" Wan Shugao also sneered, followed Liang Kexiu, and stepped on the plank road.
Although he is on the fat side, Wan Shugao has gained very good attainments after several years of exercise, light body kung fu and inner family true qi, so he is also very comfortable walking.
The footsteps of the Zhao soldiers were suddenly speechless, and they silently followed behind with their hounds.
Walking through this plank road, it is already dusk.
Liang Kexiu looked around, pointed to the mountain peak in front of him, and asked, "Brother Zhao, that is the Wild Ghost Ridge, right?" ”
"Yes, the place where we stand belongs to Wild Ghost Mountain. To the main peak in front, there are still three miles of land. Zhao Bing said.
"Near Wild Ghost Ridge, is there an ancient temple with a pagoda in the temple?" Liang Kexiu asked again.
Zhao Bing's face changed, and he said: "That ancient temple is still on the west side of the main peak, and there are at least ten miles away from here. ”
