Chapter Forty-Eight: An Unknown Destination
It seems that not only me, but many forces are paying attention to the movements of the Tan family. It's just that I'm the weakest one.
I don't know what happened to the second uncle now, I subconsciously touched my pocket and found that it was empty, and I remembered that my phone was taken away by the bald head.
I said to my glasses, "Glasses, give me your phone." ”
The glasses hesitated, but then took out their phone and handed it to me, "What are you going to do?" ”
As I dialed, I said, "I'll call my second uncle." It's not what we expected, and I'm going to let him know so he doesn't catch him off guard. ”
I thought about the call for a long time, but no one answered. I hit two more and both were in this situation. I couldn't help but worry in my heart, could it be that the second uncle had an accident? I returned my phone to my glasses and looked out the window with some uneasiness. The glass on the windows was so dirty that it reminded me of the frosted glass in that weird yard in Bazi Alley.
At this time, Wenmo pushed the door and said to us: "Quick, follow me!" ”
My glasses and I immediately followed him. We walked through a small patio, Wenmo opened the door and looked out, then walked out.
When I walked out the door, I realized that we were in the same place, right next to the small restaurant just now. The bald people probably never dreamed that I was actually close to them.
I went out and followed Wenmo along the wall to look in the direction of the small restaurant. The bald group all looked to the back of the restaurant and scattered in that direction. I couldn't help but admire the people who designed this route, and I went around in a circle and returned to the original place.
Just when I thought we were about to escape, a dog came out of nowhere. Ran past the bald group and ran straight in the direction we were. One of the men subconsciously followed the dog and glanced this way. I just found myself crouching around the corner of the wall.
I whispered, "Not good! ”
Wen Mo and his glasses also turned their heads to look, and the bald subordinate pointed at us and shouted, "They're there!" Immediately afterward, the other people around us also turned and ran in our direction.
The three of us didn't dare to slack off, and immediately ran wildly.
We crossed a ditch and climbed up the roadbed along the roadbed. As I ran, I shouted to Wen Mo at the front: "Boss, let's leave the road and find a hidden place to run!" ”
Wen Mo didn't speak, but raised his hand to look at the time, at this time, I heard the roar of a car engine behind me, and when I turned my head, I saw two cars approaching us quickly.
I couldn't help but be shocked, this can't be a bald person! So he blurted out: "Oh no, did you catch up!" As I spoke, I was about to jump off the roadbed. But Wen Mo grabbed me, at this time, two cars had already driven in front of us, the window of the car in front of me fell, and a woman was sitting in it, I was immediately surprised when I saw it, this was clearly the woman I saw in Tan Zhaoge! However, isn't she from the Tan family? Why didn't she help the bald head, but instead went against the bald head to help us, I really couldn't figure it out.
The woman sat in the car and said to us, "Quick! Get on the back car! ”
I was still a little hesitant, but Wen Mo had already stepped forward and opened the car door. I had no choice but to follow and get into the car.
As soon as the door was closed, the car sped away, and I watched as the bald people behind the car climbed up from under the roadbed, but they could only helplessly look at the rear of our car.
Sitting in the speeding car, I wanted to ask what the hell was going on, but looking at the glasses and Wenmo, they didn't say a word, and I asked like a stupid X. So, I put my heart sideways, and my heart said that I love it! That's it anyway! And isn't Wenmo also here, with him, I still have a better bottom in my heart.
The car was constantly coiling on the mountain road, and the tension of the past two days made me feel a little drowsy at this time. After a while, I fell asleep on the back of my chair.
I don't know how long I slept, but when I opened my eyes, I saw that the car had left the road and was walking through a wooded field. While both of our cars are hardcore off-road vehicles with decent performance, it's also not as easy to walk here. The car shook so hard that I hit my head on the glass several times.
I rubbed the sore spot and asked, "Boss, where do you think we're going?" ”
Wenmo didn't speak but looked out the window, I was surprised by Wenmo's reaction, so I turned my head to look at my glasses, and the glasses shrugged at me, as if to indicate that you don't ask me.
I looked at the guy who was driving, and I was surprised to see that it was a woman, but she was wearing a baseball cap all the time, and I didn't even notice it just now. I said to her, "Oh, this beauty, where are you taking us?" ”
The woman said in a deep voice without squinting, "You will know when the time comes." ”
When I asked, she had no comment.
I leaned back on the back seat in frustration, and then Wenmo in the front seat spoke, "This should not be far from the Ancient Tea Horse Road." ”
The glasses sat up straight and said, "Are they going to take us to the Ancient Tea Horse Road?" ”
As I said this, I accidentally caught a glimpse of the woman driving in front of me, who seemed to sneer slightly with disdain. This makes me a little strange, isn't what Wenmo said wrong, this is impossible!
Moreover, I also know the Ancient Tea Horse Road, which is a channel for trade and exchange between the interior of the Central Plains and various regions in the west. In general, there are four, namely the Shaanxi-Gansu Tea Horse Ancient Road on the Silk Road, and another route in Shaanxi called the Ancient Road, and then there is the Yunnan-Tibet Tea Horse Ancient Road, which starts in Yunnan, and the Sichuan-Tibet Tea Horse Ancient Road, which originated in Sichuan, as mentioned by Wenmo just mentioned. The reason why the Ancient Tea Horse Road is called the Ancient Tea Horse Road is that the main trade item in those days was to exchange camellia for horses.
Estimating from the route and distance, I speculate that we have now passed Kangding, in this case, Wenmo's speculation should be correct, and this is indeed not far from the Sichuan-Tibet Tea Horse Ancient Road.
While observing the woman's performance, I asked Xiang Wenmo, "Boss, what do you say they brought us here near the Ancient Tea Horse Road?" Could there be anything special about this official Tea Horse Road? ”
Wen Mo sat in front of the co-pilot and shook his head gently, "Actually, before the formation of the Ancient Tea Horse Road, the passages from here to the ancient cities in the Western Regions already existed, but some of them were eventually abandoned, and some people say that they were hidden, it is said that it is because of the amazing secrets buried in it. Later, after the original ancient road was completed and revised, coupled with the intervention of the government at that time, it was finally officially built into a formal trade route, which is now known as the Ancient Tea Horse Road. ”
Hearing Wen Mo say this, I found that the disdainful expression on the face of the woman driving the car disappeared, and was replaced by a solemn look. Then Wen Mo continued: "I think what they are looking for is the hidden passage, called the Barun Ancient Road. ”
When she heard the last four words, the woman driving in front of her couldn't be calm anymore, she suddenly turned her head to look at Wen Mo in surprise, "You, how do you know this?" Who are you? ”
