Chapter 215: The Old Man with the White Beard
"What's wrong with you?"
"No, nothing. "I came back to my senses and stared blankly into the distance, unable to calm down for a long time.www.biquge.info
"Let's go!" The fawn held a long branch and pointed ahead.
"Do you know where to go?"
"Walk away! How else can you go! The fawn laughed.
I was a little helpless, and I said that this mentality is really good, and it is full of confidence at all times.
We walked aimlessly through the mountains, but with the general impression, we should be heading southeast, where the mountain hinterland is covered by dense vegetation, so we can't see the specific route, so we can only stop and go, constantly correcting the direction.
Turning over this section of the horizontal ridge in front of us, we enter the downhill section, in fact, the descent is more difficult than the uphill, because the peaks are tall and the mountain is steep, we have to find a good support point for every step, otherwise it is easy to cause the soles of the feet to slip, this height is strange if you roll down and do not fracture.
"Whew-I'm tired!" I stopped to look at my watch, and the cover of the watch had disappeared at some point, and the scale on the dial was blurred, but fortunately, the hands were relatively intact and I could tell that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
About 100 meters further down was the lowest point of the hinterland, and we couldn't help but speed up our pace, after all, we couldn't find a foothold on the steep slope, and we couldn't stop and rest for a long time, and the mountain on the opposite side was relatively gentle, and maybe we could spend the night in peace.
Standing between the gentle hinterland, I suddenly felt relieved, and after clearing the surrounding rubble, I shouted to the fawn above, "Jump down!" It's okay! ”
The fawn leaned over, carefully slid down, patted the dirt off his trouser leg, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
We sat down to rest, and since I had lost all my gear, I had been drinking water from the fawn, and now his water bottle was almost empty, and if we couldn't find a water source nearby, we had to get water from these trees.
"You rest, I'll go to the side and see if there's any water!" I stood up and said.
"Yo! Our little shyness has grown up and knows how to care about others! Ha ha! The fawn laughed.
"What do you mean, it's like I've always been a drag bottle!" I'm a little depressed.
Hearing this, Xiaolu hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "Don't be careful! Don't be careful! Just a joke! ”
The fawn had a bruise on his leg, and I did not dare to let him walk more, so I walked straight down the valley into the depths of the forest, and as a matter of agreement, I had to go back within half an hour, and whatever happened, I had to shoot and signal.
In fact, there are not a few bullets in the two pistols I picked up, Xiaolu's Bayi bar has also been lost, and the ammunition in the backpack has almost leaked, and the rest can't match the pistol type, I really don't know how to face the next long time.
After walking for about five or six minutes, I suddenly felt groggy because my physical strength was also a little tight, but when I thought that the fawn was still waiting for water to drink, I had a reason to persevere, so I persevered and walked forward for more than ten minutes, and suddenly saw a ray of white light floating in the woods in front of me.
At first I thought I was hallucinating and didn't pay much attention to it, but then I noticed something unusual, the grass around there was shaking, and a white figure was faintly visible among the interlaced leaves.
Is it a beast? I raised my guard and drew my pistol cautiously approaching. The white figure kept shaking, and it didn't seem to notice me at all.
Suddenly, the shadow grew larger, and he actually stood up from the grass, only to see that it was a white robe, weakly placed in the air, the reason why it was so described was because the guy had no head, and it was completely an upright robe!
I was so frightened that I almost screamed, I couldn't imagine that this barren mountain could really bump into a ghost, and it was in a place where such birds don't!
After a while, the robe suddenly turned in a different direction, and I was surprised, it turned out to be a hunchbacked old man, who had his back to me before, and the robe was worn loosely, so at a cursory glance, I would really think it was a ghost.
The old man had a kind face, a gray beard, and a free and indifferent attitude between his eyebrows.
"Huh! Don't be afraid, lad, take it easy! Hehe! ”
The old man grinned, due to the cover of his beard, he only saw a slight gap on his face, constantly trembling, in fact, judging from the whole appearance, this old man must be at least eighty years old, and there is still a bit of fairy wind bones.
"You, you shouldn't be the kind of old Taoist priest who travels all over the world in the TV series, right?" I asked timidly.
"Huh! Hehe! The old man just smiled vigorously, and was not in a hurry to answer my question.
"Do you know a ghost town? Do you know what the hell this is? I tried to ask again.
"Huh! Tell me something I understand, young man! Hehe! I'm old, confused! ”
I took a deep breath and said that it was really a bit of a hassle to communicate with him, so I simply went straight to the point, approached him a little closer, and asked, "Do you know where there is water around here?" I'm dying of thirst! ”
"Huh!"
Depend on! I said in my heart that I was dying of thirst, and he could laugh, and if it weren't for the fact that he was an elder, I would have liked to go up and punch him to the ground.
"Huh! Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive! The old man smiled and pushed his hand, then made a gesture of anger, "From this road forward, you can see what you want with a cup of tea!" ”
"Thank you, thank you!" As time was pressing, I hurriedly thanked me and ran forward, but I had barely taken a few steps when I heard the old man coughing behind me.
He coughed a few times and said slowly, "I'm afraid you two have something else to ask for!" ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but stop, turned to look at the old man, and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean by that?" ”
"It's hard to draw the skin of a tiger and paint the bones, hehe! Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts! ”
"How did you know we were two people?" I asked.
"Huh! Young man, I know why you are here and where you are going! What you're looking for, hehe, is just a speck of dust at the ends of the earth! ”
"Old sir! I'm really anxious, can you not ......"
"Immortal Immortal Pool!" Before I could finish my sentence, I was interrupted by the old man.
"You, what did you say?"
"Huh! Looks like I'm right! ”
"What a god! Do you know how to get around that place? I asked urgently.
The old man closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, and suddenly chanted: "Yunling asks Xiantan, and the remaining veins are hidden in the dragon's sleep." Go to the mountain path by yourself, and the blessed land is good for cultivating immortals. ”
After saying that, the old man turned around and disappeared.
