Chapter 257: Old Friends Reunite and Enter Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain
Tan Dong sat in front of the door, bored looking at the people passing by the door.
He even knows the habits of his neighbors.
For example, at this time every morning, the fat woman in the west neighborhood will show up on time and go to the grocery store next to the street to buy two taels of sugar.
And after going out, she always can't wait to open it and taste two bites.
There is also the tall and thin man in the East Neighborhood, who always goes out for a walk after eating every day, and when he comes back, there are always oil stains on the corners of his mouth, obviously secretly running out to eat alone.
After living so unhappily every day, Tan Dong felt that he was about to get moldy.
After stretching, Tan Dong let out a long yawn, and then planned to get up and go back to the house.
But at this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure.
It was the appearance of this figure that caused his figure to freeze immediately.
No way.
Could it be that I was mistaken?
But when he took a closer look, Tan Dong was stunned.
Because at this time, that figure has already appeared in front of him, with a tall figure and an extraordinary temperament, who can it be if it is not Zhao Ya?
Zhao ...... Brother Zhao? Tan Dong's voice trembled a little.
Zhao Ya smiled slightly, "What?" Don't recognize me? ”
After he led Zui'er into Danfeng Town just now, he found the door smoothly after a little inquiry.
Far away, Zhao Ya saw Tan Dong, who was sitting drowsy in front of the door, and wanted to quietly step forward to surprise him, but he didn't expect to be discovered by him.
After making sure that he was not dreaming, Tan Dong's tears came down and rushed towards Zhao Ya.
"Brother Zhao, I want to kill you!"
In the next second, Tan Dong landed heavily on the ground, and then Zhao Ya looked at him helplessly.
"Can you stop being so numb, I'm not good at this."
Even if he fell and gnawed on, Tan Dong was still stupid and happy.
At the same time, the people in the courtyard were also alarmed.
When these families came out of the nursing home, after seeing that it was Zhao Ya, they were naturally extremely surprised.
A moment later, in the living room, Song Linqing, who learned the news, strode in.
As soon as he saw Zhao Ya, Song Linqing's eyes lit up, and he burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha At first, I thought these people were talking nonsense, but I didn't expect it to be your kid back!"
Zhao Ya also smiled, then clasped his fists and said, "Zhao Ya, I have seen the head of the family." ”
Unexpectedly, Song Linqing waved his hand, "Okay, you are no longer the leader of my family, don't call the head of the family, I am older than you, just call me Brother Song." ”
Saying that, Song Linqing grabbed his wrist and walked back.
"My sister has been talking about you all day, and now that you're finally here, she's so happy to see you."
Zhao Ya couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, but he was still dragged hard.
At the same time, in the back house, Xiao Man ran into the house like a gust of wind, and shouted excitedly: "Xiao ...... Miss, come on! ”
"What's coming?" Song Peiwan, who was embroidering in front of the window, didn't know why.
At this time, Xiao Man finally took a breath, "Commander Zhao is back!" ”
"Don't make a fuss, I'll be angry if I do this again." Song Peiwan thought that the little maid was joking with herself, so she lowered her head and continued to embroider.
Xiao Man was anxious, "What I said is true, Miss, I just saw it with my own eyes, and the head of the family is dragging Commander Zhao to our side." ”
Seeing that the little maid was so anxious, Song Peiwan couldn't help but believe it.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, I told you before, I'm a poor man with a noble mouth, and I really said it." Xiao Man said triumphantly.
At this moment, I heard Song Linqing's hearty laughter from outside the hospital.
"Pei Wan, who do you see coming?"
Song Peiwan panicked all of a sudden.
She didn't expect Zhao Ya to come so quickly, but at this time, it was too late to clean up, so she could only ask Xiao Man without a master, "Is my hair messy?" ”
"It's not messy, it's good-looking."
"Where's my dress?"
"Oh Miss, don't think about this at this time, go pick it up." Xiaoman said helplessly.
Song Peiwan stood up and walked outside the door.
Sure enough.
I saw my brother Song Linqing dragging a person into the courtyard with a smile on his face.
It's not Zhao Ya, who is it.
Song Peiwan's body trembled slightly, but she still forced herself to calm down and salute lightly.
"I've seen Zhao ...... Zhao Gongzi. ”
She really didn't know what to call Zhao Ya, so she had to shout in a hurry.
Zhao Ya also smiled slightly and returned the salute.
"Miss Song."
Poof, Xiao Man couldn't help but laugh.
Although she quickly covered her mouth, her eyes were still full of smiles.
These two are so interesting.
A Zhao Gongzi, a Song girl.
Why does this sound so awkward?
When she smiled, Song Peiwan's face turned red at that time, and she couldn't help glaring at her fiercely.
Fortunately, Song Linqing broke the siege in time.
"Quick, tell the kitchen, there will be a big banquet tonight, and you won't go home if you don't get drunk."
This dinner party can be called extremely sumptuous, and when the wine has passed three rounds, I saw Song Linqing put down the wine glass and asked in surprise.
"Are you going to enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?"
"Yes, I'm going to look for something in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain." Zhao Ya said.
"That's not easy, because the terrain in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is very complicated, unless it is those mountain guests who rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, otherwise, ordinary people will not want to turn out after a little depth, plus there are many strange beasts in the mountains, it can be described as extremely dangerous." Song Linqing said with a frown.
"I'm not afraid of strange beasts, I just need an experienced mountain guest as a guide, I wonder if Brother Song has a suitable candidate?"
With Zhao Ya's current strength, even if there are powerful beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, Zhao Ya is not afraid at all.
It's just that Zhao Ya didn't reveal these words to Song Linqing.
"Okay, I'll go find you a reliable mountain guest tomorrow, and drink now." Song Linqing should be even inherited.
It couldn't be easier for him.
After all, as Li Zheng of Danfeng Town, he knows better than anyone which of these mountain visitors who enter the mountain have real talents and real learning, and which ones are parallel goods injected with water.
Therefore, after getting drunk all night, early the next morning, Song Linqing went out.
At noon, Song Linqing brought back a man in his forties who was shrewd and capable at first glance.
"Oh, this is the most powerful mountain guest in our Danfeng Town, named Ma Yufei, if you want to enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, you must be right to find him." Song Linqing introduced.
Ma Yufei was a little surprised.
At first, when he heard Song Linqing say that he had a friend who wanted to go into the mountains to find things, he thought it was the sons and daughters of those wealthy families, and he wanted to go into the mountains to have a trip when he had nothing to do, and kept it as the capital he would brag about in the future.
He had no reason to do so.
It's a very easy job, and you can earn a good commission.
But I never expected to see such a young man with an extraordinary temperament.
Although I can't see the specific strength, for a person like Ma Yufei who has been begging for a living on the knife all year round, he can still tell at a glance that Zhao Ya's strength should be quite good.
This made Ma Yufei's nerves tense all of a sudden.
Because such a young master would never go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain to play.
So this task should be quite dangerous.
Zhao Ya also saw his nervousness, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, although the place I'm going to is relatively special, it shouldn't be too dangerous." ”
At this point, Ma Yufei was naturally embarrassed to say anything else, so he could only nod his head.
"May I ask first, where are you going to go to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?"
"Of course."
Zhao Ya took out the replica map prepared in advance and handed it to Ma Yufei.
Ma Yufei took it and looked at it carefully.
After a long time, he frowned, and then handed the map back to Zhao Ya.
"With all due respect, the terrain on this is something I've never seen before, are you sure this is the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?"
"Sure, and I'm sure this place shouldn't be too deep."
Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain covers an area that even when Dayan was at its peak, it was impossible to depict it all.
Therefore, Zhao Ya concluded that the location on this map should not be too deep.
"Even so, it's not easy to find, because people who haven't entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain can't imagine how huge this mountain system is."
Ma Yufei shook his head, not thinking that he could find the target location according to the map like this.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you take me into the mountain, I have my own way." Zhao Ya said.
"Since you insist on insisting, then I have nothing to say, but there is one thing to explain in advance, it is very dangerous inside, if there is something that cannot be solved, I will escape by myself." Ma Yufei said very frankly.
"Naturally, I don't expect you to help me solve the danger." Zhao Ya said with a smile.
Regarding Ma Yufei's blunt words, Zhao Ya was not angry, but rather appreciative.
Because this is the quality of an experienced mountain traveler, it is doubtful if you slap your chest before you go in, saying that you will be able to ensure your safety.
"Okay, then I'll go back and get ready, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning."
After Ma Yufei got off this file, he turned around and went back to clean up.
Zhao Ya was not idle, he sorted out the things around him, left the useless things, and only carried the commonly used poison powder, pills, and dried meat for supplies.
Naturally, drunken children can't go, but fortunately, they are taken care of by Song Linqing and others, and they are very safe.
So Zhao Ya left her behind, and then followed Ma Yufei on the journey early the next morning.
The road into the mountain was very smooth, and after entering it, Zhao Ya finally knew why Ma Yufei was so cautious.
Because unlike other mountain ranges, the mountains of this Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range are almost all steep, and the mountain roads inside are even more rugged and difficult to navigate.
Coupled with the rampant strange trees and grasses, if there is no guide, the average person will not be able to go far and will have to lose their way.
"Actually, this time period when you came is not the best time to enter the mountain, because the climate is hot and humid, and the humidity in the mountain is large, and it is easy to fog, and that time is the most dangerous time for the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain." Ma Yufei explained.
"When is the best time to enter the mountains?" Zhao Ya asked.
"It is the period when winter goes to spring, when the ice and snow melt and the plants and trees have just sprouted, which is the most suitable time to enter the mountains."
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Ya suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped at Ma Yufei.
Ma Yufei was startled, and before he could react, he saw Zhao Ya's hand reach the back of his head, and then pinched a poisonous snake with a black body and a pattern and shrank back.
"Just now, this thing lurked on the branch next to you and was ready to attack, I was afraid that after reminding you, you would alarm it again and attract unnecessary danger, so I shot directly." Zhao Ya said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Although this poisonous snake may not be able to do anything to Ma Yufei even if it attacks, after all, a mountain guest like him who often enters the mountain can do it without some means.
But Zhao Ya's move is a fact, and Ma Yufei is naturally very grateful for this, and the little sense of distraction before disappeared.
On the next journey, the two cooperated with each other and walked very smoothly.
And the more he walked, the more amazed and admired Ma Yufei became.
Because Zhao Ya's understanding of the mountains and forests is not inferior to his own, and in some places it is even surpassed.
Finally, they came to the first stop of the trip, a strange rocky peak.
