From that day on, every month or two, the white-haired little brother of the old pavilion chief would go down the mountain, eat him for nothing in the only restaurant at the foot of the mountain, and then return to the mountain with dozens of catties of dry food and meat. It wasn't until two years later that the old pavilion chief, who had been waiting for three or four months, never saw any trace of the white-haired brother.

Just when the old pavilion chief thought that the white-haired little brother had died on Yan Mountain, and he was still a little embarrassed, Wu Mian had already appeared in Miaojiang, thousands of miles away. Two months ago, he had mastered all the techniques recorded on the bamboo slips, and before deciding to leave here and go to find the next map, Wu Mian felt a little uneasy in his heart, and after checking the cave again, he found a small porcelain vase in the last stone cave containing the bamboo slips. It contained three wax balls the size of pigeon's eggs. After crushing one, the black pill inside was revealed.

Wu Mian recognized it at a glance, this was the elixir of immortality. But I don't understand what Xu Fu's intention was in leaving the pill here, but since he found it, there is no reason not to take it away. Wu Mian searched the cave again, and after finding nothing of value, he left here with a few pieces of gold cake and the elixir of immortality.

The location of the second map is in a local forest. Wu Mian has been wandering around here for seven or eight days, and he has not yet found the location marked on the map.

It rains abundantly all year round, and some of the roads that are not often traveled have been covered by newly grown shrubs, which is completely inconsistent with the map that Wu Mian has memorized in his mind. Wu Mian had already eaten all the dry food he had brought with him, and he couldn't find the location marked on the map within a day or two, so he had to go back to the township outside first and replenish his food.

As soon as he thought of this, Wu Mian's heart was a little impetuous, and he didn't notice his feet. After stepping over a bare tree root, there was a sudden feeling of a foreign object under his feet, and then he heard a "click", and a huge beast trap flipped up from the ground, and the iron teeth at both ends of the clip bit Wu Mian's calf.

Although Wu Mian is now immortal, the pain caused by his physical injury has not diminished at all. The pinched calf was already a blur of flesh and blood, and just when Wu Mian endured the severe pain and was about to break the iron clip, a sound of footsteps sounded behind him.

A thought suddenly arose in Wu Mian's heart: Could it be that this is an organ set up by bandits to kill people for money? As the sound of footsteps behind him got closer and closer, Wu Mian simply sat on the ground against the trunk of the tree, pretending to be at a loss after being injured. Secretly guarded, to see what these people behind them are going to do.

Running behind him were three or four sturdy men with upper bodies, led by one in his forties, who was in his forties, and frowned when he saw Wu Mian being bitten by a beast and his bloody calf. ran in front of Wu Mian at the moment, held the ends of the iron clamp with both hands, and forcefully broke a gap that could stretch out his calf.

This person first shouted a string of words at Wu Mian, and when he saw that Wu Mian didn't understand, he changed his somewhat jerky official dialect and said, "You, the legs come out."

Wu Mian shook his head and said weakly: "I don't feel in my legs, I can't move."

This person frowned again, and shouted something to a few people behind him that Wu Mian couldn't understand. Immediately, another person ran over and lifted Wu Mian's leg out of the beast trap.

After the man at the head checked Wu Mian's wounds, he said to him: "Seriously injured, you, we are there to recuperate, okay, let's go again" After speaking, he didn't wait for Wu Mian to agree or not, and directly carried him on his back, they were used to walking in this forest, and they walked around for more than half an hour, and vaguely heard a sound of running water, and the further they went, the louder the sound became. After passing through a bush, the eyes suddenly opened up, and a waterfall of dozens of zhang appeared in front of Wu Mian.

Beside the waterhole at the bottom of the waterfall, the man at the head of the group briefly cleaned Wu Mian's wounds. Wu Mian used a small illusion, and in the eyes of these people, the injury on his leg did not improve in the slightest. Walking all the way upstream along the waterhole, after walking for a short time, after passing through a bamboo forest, you will arrive at a cottage.

After seeing these men come back, the men and women in the village came out to greet these people, but when they saw the wound on Wu Mian's leg, they all looked surprised.

After placing Wu Mian in a bamboo building, an old man in his sixties was brought here. It seems that the old man is a local doctor, after checking Wu Mian's injury, the old man said a lot of words to the man who took the lead that Wu Mian didn't understand, and the man who took the lead agreed, and then said to Wu Mian with a gesture: "The doctor said, there is no big deal, take medicine, half a month will be fine."

While the leader was talking, the old doctor pulled out several herbs from the bamboo basket he was carrying. After putting it in his mouth and chewing it, he pasted it on the wound on Wu Mian's leg. This herb is cold and cold, but there is no special feeling.

After seeing that the old doctor left a few herbs, he left here. The man who took the lead pointed to his chest and said to Wu Mian: "I, Lin Huo." You live here, eat, I'll send it."

Wu Mian looked at the man who took the lead and said, "Your name is Lin Huo?

Although Lin Huoguan's words are not good, it is definitely not a problem to understand. He said while gesturing: "The one who sets the wild boar is not the one who sets the person, and the person who kills it directly without a clip ......"

Since he couldn't find the entrance marked by the map in the short term, Wu Mian simply stayed here. His village, along with several nearby villages, is a Miao village inhabited by Miao people, and the Miao people's usual life is also very simple, in addition to farming, it is to organize the men in the village to go to the mountains to hunt. The prey caught is owned by the whole village, and is divided equally among the village elders by the village elders, and is distributed to the whole village according to each household, except for the godly.

The local Miao people treated Wu Mian quite well, and every time he caught prey and the crops in the field would be counted as his share. The elders of the village came to ask about Wu Mian's origin, and he only deduced that he was looking for a big miner, and he got lost on the mountain before he arrived here, but he was also injured by the trap set up by the forest fire. Wu Mian was born as a monk since he was a child, and he knew a lot about ore herbs, and he couldn't find any mistakes in his words.

In the days when Wu Mian was 'recuperating from his injuries', Lin Huo came to see him almost every day. After going back and forth, the two made friends. Because he accidentally injured Wu Mian, Lin Huo felt very guilty about Wu Mian, and he didn't understand the meaning of some official words. So Wu Mian usually spoke a little bitterly, but Lin Huo didn't care much about it.

Lin Huo's official dialect was learned from the Han merchants who came and went here, and it was originally used for bargaining. During the time he came into contact with Wu Mian, his level of official speech has improved significantly.

Wu Mian calculated his recovery days according to 100 days of injured muscles and bones, and when he was teaching Lin Huo to speak officially, he also asked about the location of the second map. Unexpectedly, Lin Huo didn't know it, he helped Wu Mian ask the elderly people in the village, and even these old people had never heard of such a place.

Wu Mian has no choice but to stay in Miao Village first, anyway, he has time, wandering around the neighborhood for a few years, there is always a chance to find clues.

In the blink of an eye, more than three months have passed, and Wu Mian feels almost good to outsiders. Just when he was thinking about how to persuade Lin Huo to continue to stay in the village for a few more days, Lin Huo first ran to Wu Mian's bamboo building in a hurry, and said to him: "Brother Wu, get ready, tonight is the day when our thirteen Miao villages welcome Wu Zu, according to the rules, as long as the people in Miao Village, whether they are hosts or guests, they must go." If you don't get it, you may be the next generation of Wu Ancestors!"

Wu Mian knew a little about Wu Zu, this was a god that the Miao Jiang generation believed in. Wuzu is different from the gods of the Central Plains religion, it is a living person who becomes a god, and appoints the successor of the next generation before his death. Before the physical death, the soul will merge with the designated heir, giving birth to the next generation of Witch Ancestors. This is not the same as the seizure of the Central Plains religion. It is the merger of two souls to derive a new soul, and then the physical survival of the successor.

Wu Mian didn't have the heart to look at this excitement, but Lin Huo came in order to pull people to the ground. For this, he also brought his nephew, a young man named Yang Xiao, with him. Wu Mian was really entangled and had no choice, so he simply agreed to Lin Huo and went to see what Wu Zu looked like at night.
