"Here's it!"

The source of the sound was a wicker chair on the right side of the courtyard, on which an old man with a white beard was lying basking in the sun.

Because of the angle, Wu Ze and the others failed to find each other at the first time.

"Uncle Liu, you happen to be at home, these two are friends who came to us to collect mountain goods, and they want to go to the mountains for a walk, so they want to ask you for directions."

When the village chief looked at the old man, he immediately showed a smile and said.

"Got it, I'll talk to the two children, you go and get busy with yours."

The old man got up from the rattan chair and waved to the village chief.

Wu Ze looked at the conversation between the two, and suddenly felt that this old hunter who was mentioned in the original book didn't seem to be so simple!

After the village chief left, the old man beckoned Wu Ze and the two to the stone table in the courtyard, poured himself a glass of wine, and asked with a smile: "The two of them are really not small." ”

Wang Kaixuan didn't hear the meaning of his words, and said a little puzzled: "What do you mean by this, old man?" ”

On the contrary, Wu Ze was a little enlightened, knowing that his plan had been seen through by the old man, so he said with a smile: "It's nothing, just follow the trend." ”

He's not lying, but that's what he really thinks.

"Huh." The old man chuckled, took a sip of wine very boldly, and asked, "I don't know if you are only doing this business this time, or if you plan to do it for a long time?" ”

Wu Ze replied without hesitation: "Of course, it is a long-term cooperation, and the good things in this mountain are rare." ”

Although there is a special supply of medicinal materials at home, those medicinal materials are only artificial goods produced by the farm, and now that a channel can be established, Wu Ze will naturally not just do a one-shot deal.

In fact, even if there is no Wang Kaixuan this time, he plans to have time to come over here for a trip, not to mention that there are many rare and exotic beasts in the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, just the natural medicinal materials in this mountain, he will not let go.

"I know what you're here for, so take it."

The old man didn't say anything, lowered his head and rummaged through the small basket next to him, and soon found a booklet and threw it to Wu Ze.

"What is this?"

Wu Ze subconsciously took the booklet thrown by the other party and looked at the old man with some puzzlement.

The old man got up with a smile and walked towards the rattan chair, and said as he walked, "Everything you want is on this, which is more convenient than me telling you." ”

Wu Ze looked down at the booklet in his hand, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching.

Only then did he realize that this booklet was not only very thin, but also bound with printer paper, which was really far-fetched.

But now the meaning of the old man's gesture to send off the guest is obvious, so he didn't continue to stay, and pulled Wang Kaixuan, who still wanted to ask something, and left here.

Let's take a look at the contents of this booklet first, anyway, people won't run here, and if you have any doubts, you can lie down again.

"Wu Ze, what kind of dumb riddle do you say this old man is playing?"

Wang Kaixuan glanced at the blank cover booklet in Wu Ze's hand and asked puzzledly.

"People know everything." Wu Ze didn't reply to him, but just sighed, and opened the booklet in his hand.

Only after reading this did he know why the old man said that just now, because this booklet not only recorded the detailed route into the mountain, but also some taboos for walking in the mountains and forests, the activity area of the fierce beasts in the mountains, and especially a hand-drawn detailed map at the end.

"Oops!" Seeing the detailed content in this booklet, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but smack his lips and said: "Shouldn't this old man's basket be full of this kind of booklet, this guiding job really makes him play!" ”

The old man didn't avoid the two of them when he took the booklet just now, so Wang Kaixuan also saw the whole process, and at this time, he couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the booklet that seemed to be like this in that basket.

"Not necessarily, if it's all the same, then you can't take it anymore, I don't think his rummaging action is like a show." Wu Ze shook his head, he felt that those might not be exactly the same as the one in his hand.

"Hiss-" Wang Kaixuan heard Wu Ze suddenly look back at the far gate not far behind him, and asked in a low voice: "Do you say that the old man should come up with a fake trick to coax people, if this leads people to the house of a beast, then if you don't die, you will have to shed your skin!" ”

"That's not good......"

Wu Ze also suspected this possibility, from the old man prepared so many brochures, it can be seen that there must be many people who ask him for directions, and he thinks that the vast majority of them should be tomb robbers, so it is estimated that not everyone is polite.

So if you really dig a hole in it, it's a bad thing.

However, Wu Ze still felt that something was wrong in his heart, because according to this statement, then this old hunter was not afraid that someone would come back to take revenge if he didn't die?

Unless...... He was sure that those people would not come back at all......

Thinking of this, Wu Ze instantly felt that this mountain village, which he didn't care about, was suddenly covered with a veil of mystery.

It's just that now is not the time to explore this matter, so he quickly put down this idea and once again focused on the 'strategy' in front of him.

In order to prevent the loss of this 'strategy' due to an accident later, Wu Ze and Wang Kaixuan decided to take advantage of the time that Wu Xie and the others had not yet arrived, and strive to keep the above content in their minds, after all, it was safer.

It's just that what Wu Ze didn't expect was that they waited until it was dark, and there was no third stranger entering the village.

Wang Kaixuan looked at the dim sky, frowned slightly, and asked, "Wu Ze, you said that this day should not be the wrong way, right?" ”

He had already estimated it in his heart, and said that Wu Xie's speed was much slower than theirs, but now that it was so long, even if he left, he should go!

"I guess they're there yet, and we're going to see them until tomorrow." Wu Ze closed the booklet in his hand and said slowly.

"I remember the village chief said that the party secretary took some people to another mountain to do things, so I hope we can leave again tomorrow."

After hearing Wang Kaixuan's question, he immediately recalled the memory of this plot in his mind, and then remembered the village where Wu Xie and the others had arrived the next day.

At the same time, what the village chief said not long ago also just verifies this.

"Shall we wait a little longer?" Wang Kaixuan asked.

"Wait." Wu Ze nodded, and at the same time didn't forget to appease the fat man: "Even if they really don't come, don't worry, I have a way to find them." ”

"Okay then." Wu Zedu had already said so, and Wang Kaixuan didn't say anything more.

Whether Wu Ze's speculation is right or not, he just has a way to keep up.

Facts have proved that Wu Ze's 'speculation' is not wrong.

Early the next morning, they saw Wu Xie and Lao Itch following a group of villagers.

At this time, the two of them looked a little tired compared to Wu Ze and Wang Kaixuan, who had a good night's rest, and it was obvious that they had not rested well.

However, Wu Xie was still very excited when he saw his acquaintance here, and hurriedly greeted: "Wu Ze! Fatso! ”

When he came to the two of them, he asked curiously, "Why are you here?" ”

Wang Kaixuan hugged his arms and said in a weird manner: "What's the matter, you can come to explore with your children, and Boss Wu and I can't go into the mountains to walk!" ”

"Why can't you, it's so good!"

Wu Xie knew that this fat man was still thinking about the last time they met, so he didn't talk to him, and said directly to him.

"I didn't expect to meet you here." After the two of them were poor, Wu Xie looked at Wu Ze and said with a straight face.

"We didn't expect it, it seems that we are quite fateful." Wu Ze also pretended not to know, and said with a smile.

He would never tell Wu Xie that the two of them were following them, and they only overtook in the corner yesterday.

If he really said that, then Wu Xie would not mention what the reaction would be, and the old itch who had been silent would definitely not do it.

"You haven't had breakfast yet, let's go, the fat man will cook for you personally."

After a brief chat, Wang Kaixuan grabbed Wu Xie's shoulders and led him towards the place where he and Wu Ze temporarily lived.

Not long after eating, the branch secretary who came back with Wu Xie and them came over, on the one hand, to talk to Wu Ze about cooperation, and on the other hand, to fulfill his promise and let his children take Wu Xie and Lao Qi to the old hunter to ask for directions.

Wu Xie originally planned to take Wang Kaixuan with him, but before he could speak, he was stopped by Lao Qi, so in the end, it was still the two of them who passed.

Looking at the figure of the two leaving, Wang Kaixuan pursed his lips disdainfully: "You said that this person is so boring, and he is still hiding." ”

"It's understandable, after all, he is friends with Wu Xie, but he is just a stranger to us." Wu Ze didn't care, anyway, no matter what Lao Qi's opinion was, he must follow the fat man on the next road.

Immediately, he chatted with the branch secretary about the cooperation, and his purpose was not only the mountain goods of this village, but also to win all the output of the surrounding mountains.

Now that everyone has cooperated, it is much better to ask the villagers to help introduce them than to come directly to the door yourself.

Yesterday, Wu Ze had already inquired, this village is because there are always tomb robbers or expeditions to rest here, so this has a high degree of acceptance of outsiders, and some villages around this area have less contact with outsiders, so someone will make things smoother.

By the time things were almost discussed on Wu Ze's side, Wu Xie and Wang Kaixuan, who had gone to the old hunter, also returned here.

Because Wu Ze and Wang Kaixuan had already rented this courtyard where no one lived, the two of them did not go to the house where Lao Qi once lived, after all, living there was far less convenient than this.

I don't know what the two talked about on the way, but it turned out that Wu Xie obviously persuaded Lao Itchy, so Wu Xie found Wu Ze and Wang Kaixuan after coming back and asked:

"I have information on a tomb here, are you interested?"

Wu Ze and Wang Kaixuan glanced at each other, and Wang Kaixuan grinned: "How can you miss your fat man when you touch the baby." ”

That's what they're waiting for!

Now Wu Xie took the initiative to bring it up, and the two people of the province also found a reason.

"Communication...... Streaming information. ”

At this time, the old itch who was following Wu Xie interjected.

Wu Ze smiled and nodded: "No problem, if you can kill two birds with one stone, this trip is worth it." ”

Subsequently, Wu Ze said directly: "I also got the news that there is an ancient tomb of unknown age here, so I shouted to the fat man to come and take a look, what about you, should you be in the same place with us?" ”

"It's not." Wu Xie shook his head: "What we are going to is a sacrificial pit, do you remember the bronze bells in the submarine tomb?" ”

"Bronze bells?" Wang Kaixuan looked at Wu Xie suspiciously, there were only two places where they had seen bronze bells, but now those two places had been completely destroyed, so it was not clear why Wu Xie would mention this.

Wu Xie put his hand in his pocket and took out a small box, which he opened to reveal the bronze bell inside.

"It's my hair small, itchy." He first introduced the old itch around him, and then continued: "He came here three years ago, and found a sacrificial pit in the mountain, and brought out some bronze utensils, and this bell is one of them. ”

"Hey! What a bell! ”

Wang Kaixuan leaned over to the bronze bell in Wu Ze's hand and looked at it carefully, making sure that this was the kind of bronze bell he had seen.

"Then are you going to go to the sacrificial pit again to find out about the bronze bell?" Wu Ze glanced at the bronze bell and asked.

He knew that Wu Xie's curiosity was very heavy, so in order to be able to act more likely, he asked such a sentence.

"There's a reason for that, but there's also a plan to touch something." Wu Ze said that this is only one of the reasons, and more is that he also wants to have a good meal.

He didn't directly say that he came to Qinling because he was itchy and lacked money, anyway, now that everyone has already arrived in the mountains, it's not interesting to say this.

"Then let's act together, go through both places, and then we will have a good look." Wu Ze nodded and said.

There was a basis for the last cooperation, and there was also the glue of Wang Kaixuan, and the cooperation was basically negotiated in three or two sentences.

The four of them briefly exchanged the information they had, but when it came to the encounter with the old hunter, Wu Xie said a different version.

In his description, the old hunter persuaded them not to enter the mountain at this time from beginning to end, and in the end, after the persuasion failed, he did not give the same brochure, but simply described the route into the mountain.

If it weren't for the memories in his mind and finding that Wu Xie had obtained the same route into the mountain as his own, and it was even rougher, Wu Ze would really suspect that there was something wrong with the old hunter's booklet.

Thinking like this, Wu Ze didn't hide his secrets, and took out the booklet very frankly.

Wu Ze handed the booklet to Wu Xie: "Look at this?" ”

"Where did this thing come from?" Wu Xie took the booklet curiously, and after briefly looking at it twice, he couldn't help but ask.

In the eyes of a professional like him, the booklet was more useful than what he had painstakingly obtained from the old hunter.

After all, the more detailed this kind of thing is, the better!
