Helplessly, the lark had been intrigued by the pitiful appearance of the little thing, and Orion did not dare to refuse the companion of the immortal master, so he could only rescue the little wolf from the trap, and was almost bitten by the little guy in the hand. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The bloodstained hunter looked badly injured, but it was actually flesh wounds, so it didn't cause him much actual damage.

Qian Chuan learned from the other party that the hunter's name was Guo Laosan, and he was from the nearby Gushan Town, which was not far from the current location of the three people.

In order to find out where he was as soon as possible, Qian Chuan decided to go to Gushan Town to inquire about the news, and Skylark naturally followed the immortal master closely.

Before arriving at the backer town, Qian Chuan specially told Guo Laosan not to reveal his identity, especially not to call himself "immortal master" anymore, just call himself "money shopkeeper" like Skylark.

Although Guo Laosan's hunting results today are only a few hares and pheasants, if he hadn't happened to notice that the trap he had set up in the forest had moved, I am afraid that he would have already returned to the town.

For a bachelor like him, who feeds his whole family and does not go hungry, if all the prey caught today is exchanged for food, it will be enough to exchange for nearly ten days' rations.

Although both Gushan Town and Caoxu Town rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, through her conversation with Guo Laosan, she found that the food price in Gushan Town is much lower than that in Drafting Market Town.

Take the prey that Guo Laosan harvested today, in two different towns, the talisman money that can be exchanged is almost the same.

But in Caoxu Town, these talismans can buy a person's rations for two or three days at most, but in Gushan Town, they can buy several times as much food.

This makes Skylark want to know the purchase price of medicinal materials in Gushan Town as soon as possible, if it is similar to the purchase price of medicinal materials in Caoxu Town, then he will sell the medicinal materials to Gushan Town in the future, so that he can exchange for more food, and the life of the family will be much better.

Although Skylark's sensitivity to money, or in other words, money fans, surpasses ordinary people, she is just a little girl living in a remote town after all.

So far, it is the first time that she has left the range of a hundred miles around Caoxu Town, and the limitations of her personal knowledge determine the comprehensiveness of her consideration of the problem.

It's like Skylark didn't expect the distance between the two towns at all, and he didn't consider the possibility of simply moving the whole family to the backing town.

Along the way, Qian Chuan found that this Guo Laosan was actually a talker, although the other party did not dare to take the initiative to talk to him, the immortal master, but he chatted with the lark who was eager to understand the situation in the backing town.

Qian Chuan, who was also a romantic figure in his early years, couldn't help but sigh, I really don't know how with Guo Laosan's eloquence at the moment, how can he be single so far, and he hasn't deceived a girl.

Along the way, the lark has learned a lot about the situation in Gushan Town from Guo Laosan's mouth.

But what Qian Chuan is most concerned about is the geographical location where the backer town is located, which is not something that Guo Laosan, an ordinary hunter, can know.

After all, Guo Laosan's living range is similar to that of the previous lark, that is, he is active near Gushan Town, and he has never left this range at all.

However, according to Guo Laosan, there will be caravans buying mountain goods from time to time in the backing town, and Qian Chuan can only hit these people with his idea.

When the three of them entered the backer town, Qian Chuan found that the number of shops in this town was far less than that of the draft market town.

There was only one grain store and one grocer store in the whole town, as well as a carriage and horse shop, of which the carriage and horse shop was the largest, perhaps to facilitate the stationing of caravans.

It seems that the daily needs of this town are mainly transported from other places by the caravans in Guo Laosan's mouth.

The three of them stood on the only street in the town, and found that there was a convoy full of goods coming from the other end of the street, which seemed to be the caravan that Guo Laosan had mentioned.

The convoy stopped at the entrance of the carriage shop next to the street, and the driver and the man who escorted the car, as well as the accompanying convoy guards, were sorting out the carriages and horses and arranging for unloading.

The once quiet town had become bustling with people, and townspeople who had suddenly appeared from all corners of the town flocked to the location of the convoy.

The convoy guards, who had long been accustomed to this scene, skillfully formed a circle around the perimeter of the convoy.

A man who looked like a caravan steward jumped on the roof of a large cart and shouted to the townspeople on the outskirts: "Everyone knows the old rules, don't do business tonight, please be early tomorrow." ”

The disappointed townsfolk disappeared into all corners of the town again like a low tide, and Qian Chuan and the others found an opportunity to get close to the convoy.

The convoy guards spotted the trio moving against the flow of people approaching the door of the carriage shop.

One was a man dressed as a hunter with a few pheasants and hares hanging from his waist.

The other is a girl dressed as a medicine picker with a medicine hoe in her waist, but a medicine basket is missing behind her back, and she is holding a little wolf in her arms.

There was also a half-old man whose identity was not discernible from his dress, but his face and bearing were completely different from the other two, but he had some resemblance to the steward of the caravan.

The convoy guards had already judged from their own experience that the half-old man who looked the oldest of the three was in charge, so he said to Qian Chuan: "My housekeeper has already explained before, and the caravan's business will only open tomorrow." ”

Qian Chuan said with a smile: "Although the old man is a businessman, he is not here to do business at the moment, he just wants to inquire about something, and he will not delay much." ”

The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, the guard could not directly refuse Qian Chuan's request, so he asked, "What does the old man want to inquire about?"

"The old man and his companion lost their way in the mountains, and finally found a way out, but they could no longer find the way to go up the mountain first. What is the boundary of this place? Can there be a place name called Caoxu Town or Guanshan County nearby?"

The guard scratched his head and said, "I only know that this backer town belongs to Bairi County, and we are the caravan of the Lin family in the county seat." As for Caoxu Town and Guanshan County, I've never heard of them. ”

Another guard next to him interjected: "That's your kid's short knowledge, if it's a place outside Bairi County, I'm afraid only Steward Lin knows." ”

Qian Chuan didn't expect such an answer, and the lark on the side couldn't help but pull the corner of the immortal master's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Shopkeeper Qian, it seems that none of these people have heard of Caoxu Town, so let's go and ask their housekeeper." ”

Guo Laosan was even more silent next to him, which was in stark contrast to his previous appearance.

This is because although he usually has a convenient tongue, he will always become clumsy when facing people with a higher status than himself.

What's more, there was a legendary immortal master standing next to him at this time, and Guo Laosan didn't dare to intervene easily.

He still has a little calculation of his own in his heart, that is, relying on the face of the immortal master, he will exchange the prey in his hand for talisman money as soon as possible, and he will not need to fight for a position with so many people tomorrow.

The man who was standing on the roof of the car and shouting before came out of the carriage shop and walked to the door, and saw Qian Chuan and others standing in front of the guards.

He originally thought that he was a townsman who hadn't left yet, but when he got closer, except for Skylark and Guo Laosan, Qian Chuan's dress and demeanor obviously didn't look like a local in this backing town.

"This is the caravan's forest steward. The guard who had just interjected hurriedly introduced.

Qian Chuan secretly thought that there was finally a steward, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The old man is not from Bairi County, because he was lost in Tiandu Mountain, and he wants to inquire about the nearby directions, can the forest steward know how far away is Caoxu Town in Guanshan County?"

Lin Jiadong is the second-room concubine of the Lin family in Bairi County, and has been in charge of the trade route between the county seat and the backing town for several years.

He could already deduce from the other party's speech and demeanor that the old man in front of him was indeed not a local resident of Gushan Town.

As for what the other party said about getting lost in the mountains, Lin Jiadong didn't want to judge the truth or falsehood, but the Caoxu Town of Guanshan County mentioned by Qian Chuan was unheard of.

Lin Jiadong boasted that he didn't know all the names of many county towns under Guangling County, but he also knew ninety percent of them, but this Guanshan County had never heard of it.

Could it be that this old man actually entered the mountains from a neighboring county, and then lost his way to Guangling County?

Although the Tiandu Mountain Range spans the counties, if it is to cross the counties from this mountain, even ordinary immortal masters dare not boast that they can be safe and sound.

If the name of Caoxu Town, Guanshan County, is not the place name made up by the old man in front of him, then there must be something strange in it.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiadong said quietly: "I can't remember the name of Guanshan County for a while. ”

"But at this time, it is getting late, and there is no inn in this backing town except this carriage and horse shop, and the old gentleman and others can go to the store to rest. “

"I'll reply to the old gentleman tomorrow after I've carefully checked the map. ”
