Chapter 430 Lao Bao

When the mute ghost first saw the drum, he was very excited when he saw that sister. He turned into a black air and surrounded the drum body. But he soon turned into a human form again, and then shook his head at Song Jiang with disappointment.

Whether it is true or not is the result of self-evident. This is not the same as the sister drum that was back then. Moreover, after Song Jiang thought about it carefully, there was no way that there was only one sister drum in this world. After all, I don’t know how many so-called saints were persecuted to death by that time.

Song Jiang and Meng Zhe were actually prepared for something wrong before coming, but now it is really proven that it is not Mei Duo's sister drum, and they are inevitably a little disappointed... Even outsiders are like this, let alone the person involved is a mute ghost. The disappointment on his face is simply beyond words.

Moreover, the moment Meng Zhe saw that sister drum, he guessed that it would be the result now, because he could not feel the scent of the ghost on it... He didn't say it directly, just wanted Song Jiang to find the answer himself.

It was just that the matter had not yet reached the end of the country. They also had the hunter Lao Bao. If the person named Deng told the truth, they should have found a brand new clue in Lao Bao...

Before Song Jiang could speak, Meng Zhe waved his hand and said to the mute ghost, "You go back first, there is no next one... Don't worry, you will find it."

After hearing this, the mute ghost knew that Song Jiang and the others did not give up, so he bowed deeply to the two of them again, then turned around and turned into a black air and returned to the totem image.

Song Jiang looked at the sister drum on the table with a pity and said, "What should I do?"

Meng Zhe said nothing, "It's just a dead thing... there is no ghost attached to it. Sometimes the meaning of some things is actually only given by living people, not the things themselves."

When Uncle Deng and Xiao Jia regained their minds, they didn't know what had just happened. They just thought they were just distracted. Song Jiang regretfully told them that something was wrong, but the general direction should have been found, so they wanted to go to their home in Laopo Mountain next...

As soon as Song Jiang said this, Xiao Jia was nothing, because Song Jiang and the others had said before that no matter whether the transaction could be reached or not, his benefits would not be reduced, but Uncle Deng was obviously hesitant.

"What? Is there any problem? If Lao Bao has something we want, you can take it away from him first and then resell it to us..." Meng Zhe said generously.

After hearing this, Song Jiang agreed, "Don't worry, we won't treat you badly."

Unexpectedly, Uncle Deng shook his head and said, "You two misunderstood what I mean. Lao Bao has a weird temper... I can't say whether he will agree."

Song Jiang said puzzledly as soon as he heard this, "Didn't you say his family is very poor? It shouldn't be rich and not profitable, right?"

Uncle Deng sighed after hearing this, "Lao Pu is a poor guy with a tough temper. If he didn't really need money to buy medicine, he wouldn't have sold the old items at home easily... First of all, he doesn't have much desire for money. Secondly, he always felt that those things were very unlucky, so he was unwilling to buy them for others easily."

"But he still bought you this sister drum... Let's try it first, let's talk about it if you can't." Song Jiang said with a smile.

Since Xiao Jia had to lead a group the next day, he could not go into the mountain with Song Jiang and the others. However, Uncle Deng said that he was very familiar with the mountain road to Lao Po's home and would never get lost in the mountains... So Song Jiang and his friends went back to the hotel for one night that night, and entered Cangduo Mountain with Uncle Deng early the next morning.

Lao Ba’s home lives in the deepest part of Cangduo Mountain and can only hike throughout the journey. Every time, it takes half a day to go on the road just by "one come and one return". Even Uncle Deng couldn’t explain why their family had to live in seclusion.

It is not difficult to walk on the mountain road. Although it is surrounded by dense forests, Uncle Deng took them on a path that was trampled out by people walking all year round. Apart from consuming some physical strength, there is nothing else...

Uncle Deng introduced the situation of Lao Ba’s family to Song Jiang and others as he walked. "Lao Ba’s wife is not very talkative, and her son is sick all year round, so every time I see Lao Ba, I don’t see him smiling. In short, life is not easy."

When Song Jiang heard this, he asked curiously, "What disease does Lao Pu's son have? Why don't he go down the mountain to treat it?!"

Uncle Deng sighed after hearing this, "It's because he hasn't seen it. The big hospital in the city said what he has... his muscle weakness is not cured at all. The eighteen or nineteen-year-old man still wants his parents to keep his shit and urine. This may be the reason why Lao Po is unwilling to go down the mountain."

After listening to Uncle Deng talk about the situation of Lao Ba’s family, Song Jiang’s mind was automatically filled with vicissitudes and serious middle-aged man. Without thinking too much, he knew that their life must be very hard...

Thinking of this, Song Jiang continued to ask, "He bought that sister drum to cure his son?!"

Uncle Deng said helplessly, "At that time, a very powerful Chinese medicine doctor came to the county town. He said he was looking at difficult and complicated diseases. When Lao Bao knew about it, he thought that Western medicine was not good. Maybe Chinese medicine was good? The child was less than 20 years old, so he couldn't lie in bed all his life, right? After he went there, the other party asked for 50,000 yuan, and he also promised to cure the child's illness... But Lao Bao's family did not have so much money? The living expenses of their whole family depended on him to go to the mountains to hunt and sell their skins alone, and there was no extra money all year round. In addition, he never interacted with others and wanted to borrow it at critical moments. When I knew about this, I helped him raise 50,000 yuan, thinking that he had saved my life and could help him. But Lao Bao was stubborn and said that he would never pay my money in his life by hunting. Finally, he gave this sister to me."

Song Jiang didn't expect that the vulgar uncle in front of him was quite loyal, so he asked casually, "Has that Xiao Bao's disease been cured?"

Uncle Deng shook his head helplessly and said, "No... that guy is just a liar. After taking Lao Bao's money, he ran away that night."

Song Jiang said angrily as soon as he heard this, "This liar is too immoral!? He is already miserable enough, he can still do it... It's better not let me touch that guy, otherwise he will definitely beat him up to search for teeth!"

Meng Zhe said funny when he saw Song Jiang’s angry look, “What is the punishment for a beat? If such a person falls into my hands, I will make him feel at ease for the rest of his life.”
