In the silence of the three of them, Xiao Er served Su Dao's dishes to Zhuo, looking at the dishes on the table, Su Daoyi said: "Come on, come on, eat the dishes first tonight, don't think about the mess, let's go to the surroundings of Wuri Mountain early tomorrow morning to check and see if we can find some clues." ”

Just when the three of them were busy dealing with the food in front of them, a middle-aged man dressed as a hunter walked out of the back kitchen, carrying a pot of wine in one hand and a stack of fennel beans in the other.

Xu Weihong raised his head and looked at the middle-aged uncle in front of him, he only felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this Orion. Orion saw Xu Weihong's doubts, and hurriedly reminded: "Last time in that inn, if it weren't for your righteous action, little brother, my life would have been taken away by the shopkeeper." ”

Hearing this, Xu Weihong finally remembered the hunter in that inn. So he hurriedly said: "Brother Wangzong, aren't you from Dongchi Town, why did you come to this Qingshi Town?"

After speaking, Xu Weihong said to Su Daoyi and Li Taiqing on the side: "This eldest brother Zhang Wangzong is a hunter in Dongchi Town, and he was in the same inn with me when he went out hunting last time. ”

Zhang Wangzong was quite happy to see that Xu Weihong could still remember his name and even his source, and said: "I came to Qingshi Town this time mainly to go to Wuri Mountain to pick some herbs, and hunt by the way. ”

Hearing this, Su Daoyi said: "Brother Zhang, if you don't mind, you might as well sit down with us and eat some together, anyway, we can't finish so many dishes." As he spoke, Su Daoyi shouted to Xiao Er to add another pair of chopsticks, and Zhang Wangzong sat down a little unnaturally when he saw that Su Daoyi was so enthusiastic.

During the meal, Su Daoyi opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Zhang, are you hunting on this Sunless Mountain all year round?"

Zhang Wangzong said a little helplessly: "It can't be said that it is perennial, that is, I go more often, and every time I go, I am scared, for fear of being targeted by something filthy." ”

Su Daoyi lifted the wine jug and poured a bowl of wine for Zhang Wangzong, Zhang Wangzong's flattered figure bowed forward, and dragged the wine bowl with both hands, Su Daoyi put down the wine jug and continued: "I don't know if Brother Zhang has felt that there is anything strange about this Wuri Mountain over the years to talk to the younger brother, I can't hide it, the three of us senior brothers took over the task of the sect this time to check on some things, if Brother Zhang can help the younger brother, next time the younger brother will invite Brother Zhang to go to the best restaurant to have a good meal." ”

Zhang Wangzong waved his hand again and again and said: "Don't dare, I can be content without helping, but I don't dare to let my son break the bank." ”

Just as Zhang Wangzong was about to continue, a jar suddenly appeared on the table, but it was only above the table, and then it was staggered to the table. After Zhang Wangzong saw it, he reached out and took the wine jar, and then bent down to pick up a little girl from the table, this little girl was wearing two braids, her puffy face was cute, the pink cotton jacket on her body had not been taken off, with two clean sleeves, Zhang Wangzong was hugged on her lap and sitting, the little girl looked at Zhang Wangzong with big flickering eyes and said: "Uncle, my mother said that this pot of wine was given to you, but she asked you to drink less." ”

Zhang Wangzong looked at the child on his lap, he liked it in his heart, pinched her face and said with a smile: "Little Lizi, have you listened to your mother's words recently, didn't make Old Master Zhong angry." ”

The little girl called Li Zi twisted her neck, broke her face out from under Zhang Wangzong's hand, and said, "No, Mr. Zhong praised me for my good handwriting a few days ago." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Wangzong was even happier, and held up the plum and said, "The little plum is so powerful, next time my uncle will take you to buy candy to eat, okay?"

Lifted in the air, Li Zi happily said, "Okay! Then I want to buy a comic book." ”

Zhang Wangzong said with a smile: "Which little plum has to be obedient and obedient, how about taking you to buy the comic books and little sugar people you want after your uncle comes next time?"

"Good"

Zhang Wangzong put the plum down and said, "Then you can go play by yourself first, uncle still has something to do." ”

Watching the little girl jump out of the door of the tavern and go to find her playmate, Zhang Wangzong continued: "If you want to say that there is really a strange place on this Sunless Mountain, but I am just an ordinary person who doesn't know anything, maybe that place is not the place you want to find, and, to be honest, this Sunless Mountain is too crazy, I just looked outside, I didn't dare to go in, I don't know what is inside." ”

Su Daoyi asked curiously, "I don't know what is strange about this place, Brother Zhang, you said?"

Zhang Wangzong said with some embarrassment: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that once when it was raining on the mountain, I wanted to find a place to hide from the rain, and then I saw a cave and didn't think much about it at the time, so I ran over to hide from the rain." ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Wangzong seemed to remember something terrifying, took a sip of wine, and exhaled a breath before he said leisurely: " At that time, I was just looking for a place to hide from the rain, and I didn't think there was anything wrong with it at first, but then after the rain gradually subsided, I found out that the cave should be a pile of rocks before, and I was a little scared at the time, so I didn't dare to go in to see it, so I wouldn't have said anything about it, but when I went again, the pile of rocks came out again, blocking the entrance of the cave tightly, and I couldn't see anything from the outside. I haven't dared to come near it since. ”

As he spoke, the middle-aged hunter picked up the wine bowl again, drank all the wine in the bowl, and said, "You also know that there is no one on this Sunless Mountain anymore, and if some demon beasts are building nests, they probably won't move those boulders around." ”

Su Daoyi picked up the wine bowl and pondered for a while, but finally didn't drink it, put down the wine bowl and asked, "Brother Zhang, I wonder if you can take us to the cave with piles of rocks you mentioned again?" Of course, Brother Zhang will not be busy in vain, and there will definitely be another reward afterwards." ”

Zhang Wangzong simply waved his hand and said: "Why not, if it wasn't for Little Brother Xu and their courage last time, I may not be able to sit here and drink with you now, how can I say that I can't repay it, even if it is a repayment, it is also my life-saving grace to repay Little Brother Xu." ”

......

Early the next morning, when Xu Weihong and the three of them came to the door of the store, they found a man squatting on the bluestone steps outside the store with a longbow on his back, gnawing on the bun in his hand.

Xu Weihong looked at Zhang Wangzong, who was agitated by his cheeks, sneered, and said, "Brother Zhang, don't worry, let's go after you finish eating first." ”

After Zhang Wangzong swallowed the food in his mouth, Xu Weihong and his party headed in the direction of the Sunless Mountain, because they had to take care of Zhang Wangzong's foot strength, so although the group set off from the tavern early in the morning, they still really arrived at the foot of the mountain when the sun was on their heads, Zhang Wangzong wiped the sweat on his head, and Su Dao said when he saw this: "Brother Zhang, it's better to rest here for a while, and then go up the mountain later." ”

Saying that, Su Daoyi took out a bag of water from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Wangzong, Zhang Wangzong took it and poured a big mouthful, took out the dry food he bought in the morning from his arms and ate it with water, Xu Weihong and the three of them didn't feel too tired, after all, they had already set foot on the path of cultivation, but Xu Weihong was extremely envious of Su Daoyi's magical power in his sleeve, but this magical power can only be used by monks in the Tianmen Realm, so Xu Weihong can only be envious now.

Li Taiqing looked at the Sunless Mountain in front of him, and Su Daoyi took the opportunity to say: "Speaking of which, the reason why this Sunless Mountain has become like this is also because of our Elder Li, it may be a pity......

Hearing this, Li Taiqing finally asked, "That young man back then?"

Su Daoyi sighed and said, "That's right, it's indeed Elder Li's grandson. ”

Xu Weihong asked with some doubts: "Then why does this Senior Brother of the Destruction of the Sunless Mountain feel a little pity?"

Su Daoyi shook his head and didn't continue, Xu Weihong didn't continue to ask, and Zhang Wangzong, who was on the side, gobbled up the dry food in his hand, handed the water bladder back to Su Daoyi and said, "Little brother, why don't we go up now?"

Su Daoyi took the water bladder and said with a smile: "Since it is Brother Zhang who leads the way, then naturally listen to Brother Zhang." ”

After the group entered the mountain, Zhang Wangzong, who had always led the way in front of Su Dao, asked, "Brother Zhang, how long have you been hunting in this Wuri Mountain?"

Zhang Wangzong used a torch to explore the way in front, and said without looking back: "Oh, there must be more than ten years, since the collapse of this corpse sect, this Sunless Mountain is considered a borderless land, within a few years, I heard that the podophyllum fruit on this mountain is a very valuable medicinal material, and the black snake can also be sold at a good price in the medicine shop under the mountain, so I will come every once in a while, but I don't dare to be greedy, every time I have a little harvest and leave quickly, after all, life is more important than anything else." ”

Su Daoyi nodded secretly after hearing this, and did not continue to speak, and the group chatted without a word for most of the next half an hour, and finally, Zhang Wangzong stopped at a pile of rocks, looking at all kinds of rocks in front of him, this honest hunter was suddenly dumbfounded, looked at Su Daoyi with some embarrassment, and said: "Little brother, I saw the cave here last time, but now it ......is gone."
