Chapter 44: The Great Barren Mountain
From early morning to dawn, the dead girl kept scolding me, and my brother’s head was hit like the Buddha’s head, and his head was full of pimples. But the brother refused to give in for Xiaoxiang, even if he was hit to death, he still had to fight. In the end, the dead girl could not beat him.
Tired of being beaten and scolded, I had no choice but to work. But I was warned, no matter what situation I encounter when I go to Dahuang Mountain this time, you will never give me any advice. Let me wait for death!
I now understand the temper of the dead girl very well. She just said angry words. When the crisis really came, how could she not help me.
After coming back and sleeping for a few hours, I packed up my things at dawn, left a note for my three buddies who slept like dead pigs, and left Nandu City to go out for a few days. When I passed by the chartered house, I thought about Mo Xi’s situation.
I also wrote a note to the old lady, telling her not to worry if Mo Xi wakes up and develops dementia, I will go out to help Mo Xi wake up.
Nandu is more than 500 kilometers away from Luoyang, and Xie Chen drove there in three hours. The BMW was comfortable to sit in, and I didn’t feel any fatigue. We first went to his residence, which is in a residential unit building. At home.
Two people were already waiting. Xie Chen told me that these were his two assistants. After preparing our things, we set off to Dahuang Mountain together.
One of the two people is a buck-toothed girl with a pockmarked face, wearing a pair of cheap glasses and tacky floral clothes. She looks like an old maid from the 1950s. The other is a man similar to Brother Sharp.
His hair was unkempt, his clothes were dirty, and he exuded a sour smell.
I couldn't help but be stunned. Such a person can also be an assistant. I thought to myself, you won't find cleaners and porters on the street just to save money, right?
Xie Chen saw through my brother's thoughts and quietly pulled me into the bedroom and said, don't underestimate this village girl. Her name is Liu Ying. She is the daughter of an old artist from a mountain village near Luoyang. She has a very good physique and can also do some kung fu.
Like a hunting dog, he has a particularly sensitive sense of smell. The sharp brother is called Wu Luo. He is also a hidden stranger among the people. He is proficient in witchcraft, but he is buried among the people and lives a very miserable life. These are two talents he discovered accidentally.
, when there is business, I will temporarily recruit help, and the pay is very low.
Sure enough, it was to save money, but after hearing him introduce these two amazing people, I didn't know if it was true.
At that moment, I said I wanted to buy two pieces of yellow paper, a writing brush, a red rope, a Bagua mirror and a peach wood sword. The damn girl had taught me for so long, so I knew how to use these things, so it would be safer to bring them all. So the buck-toothed girl went out to help me.
After buying it, I immediately drew a few sealing talismans, the Samadhi True Fire Talisman and the Golden Light Talisman.
At this time, Wu Luo, the sharp brother, had prepared food and mountain climbing tools and put them all into the trunk of the car. This man looked very dull, but he worked very quickly. And the buck-toothed girl Liu Ying was also good at running errands and shopping.
He looked very smart, which made me put my heart down in my stomach. Then I had something to eat in the restaurant downstairs, and then set off in great strides.
Dahuang Mountain is located more than 70 kilometers southeast of Luoyang. It only takes an hour to drive there. Xie Chen parked his car in the parking lot of a nearby hotel, and the four of us hiked into the mountain carrying large and small bags. Xie Chen had a satellite map in his hand, but
The strange thing is that the entire Dahuang Mountain scene is clearly visible, except for the village of Juehu Village. In a dense forest, only a large white blank area is shown. Xie Chen said that this is the location of Juehu Village, which is about ten miles away.
We have to walk on a mountain road and should be able to reach it before dark.
I originally wanted to find a local person as a guide, but when I heard that I was going to Juehu Village, everyone’s faces changed color, their heads shook like rattles, and no one was willing to go. However, Xie Chen said that Liu Ying and Wu Luo lived in the mountains.
If you're used to it, it won't be a problem if you don't have anyone to guide you.
So the four of us entered this barren mountain. After going up the mountain, our brothers started complaining. This mountain is steep and densely forested. The slopes are almost completely covered by vegetation. There are basically no roads to walk on. Once we got into the woods,
It was almost impossible to see the sky. Along the way, the clothes on my body were torn and torn, and my face, neck and hands were scratched and there were bloodstains everywhere. When the sweat soaked in, it hurt and itched. It was simply not a place for people to come.
.
Wu Luo and Liu Ying didn't like to talk very much, so they always followed us. At first I thought Liu Ying couldn't last long as a woman, but I was totally wrong. She actually had better physical strength than me, and she was in no hurry alongside Wu Luo.
He climbed up without showing any signs of fatigue.
On the contrary, Xie Chen was much worse. His physical strength was not as good as mine. He was panting like an ox when he climbed halfway up the mountain, and his clothes were soaked through. He rested twice in the middle before climbing over the mountain and entering the hinterland of the Great Wilderness Mountain.
When we entered the forest in the mountains, we were a little dumbfounded. The woods on the hillside were nothing compared to this one. The big trees blocked the sky and the sun was dim, and the light was gloomy. There were strange and exotic trees everywhere, and it was dazzling to see.
We couldn't even find the direction. Fortunately, Xie Chen took the satellite locator and accurately found our location. After identifying the direction, we headed due south. Liu Ying and Wu Luo went forward to explore the road, and Liu Ying also followed a
Like hounds, we avoided many swamps and mud holes, as well as intricate vines that were impossible to get out of.
Now I understand a little bit that Juehu Village has become an uninhabited village. Living in such a difficult environment, almost isolated from the world, is not a place for people at all.
On the route forward, we occasionally find a corpse and white bones hidden under the layer of rotten leaves. We also see animal feces from time to time. Liu Ying told us that this is left by wild animals, so we should always be vigilant.
.
After hearing this, I couldn't help but feel scared. Now, my friends are not very afraid of ghosts and monsters. What we are most afraid of are wild beasts. Besides, who knows how many venomous snakes and beasts are hidden in this primitive forest. If the four of us meet, they may not be able to share enough.
. I really don’t know how Mo Xi and the other six children found Juehu Village.
Wu Luo told us to hurry up. It would be very dangerous if we couldn't reach Juehu Village before dark and spend the night in the forest.
I exercise regularly in school and practice psychic skills, which can be regarded as a kind of Taoist Qi cultivation. Although my physique is not as good as Liu Ying and Wu Luo, it is not much inferior to them. Only Xie Chen is like a consumption ghost.
As if after walking for a while, he stuck out his tongue and panted like a wild dog. Finally, Wu Luo saw that the sky was getting darker and darker, so he carried him on his back and walked. Before it got dark, we finally walked out of the forest area.
Standing on the hillside under the setting sun, I saw a desolate ruins below, hidden among the lush vegetation.
All four of us had happy smiles on our faces, Juehu Village has arrived!
