"I guess so," the driver said enthusiastically, "You guys are here for tourism, where are you going?"
"We want to go see Taibai Mountain."
As Wu Xiaoxie said this, he took the candy handed to him by Zhang Zhuxun, tore open the bag and stuffed it into his mouth. He immediately grinned with soreness and almost jumped up on the spot.
Zhang Shuxun silently curled his lips and said, "Anti-vertigo magic sugar."
Wu Xiaoxie's face was so sour that it was distorted, but he still didn't spit it out and put his mouth against the crack of the window to blow air.
When the driver heard that he was going to Taibai Mountain, he quickly recommended himself: "You can't go out without a tour guide. It's easy to get lost in the mountains with twists and turns. Do you want me to show you a section? I live here.
The village on the edge of the reserve is just over two hills."
Wu Xiaoxie wanted to refuse when he heard this.
Zhang Shuxun patted his arm, smiled and said to the driver: "Fellow, please lead us the way."
Wu Xiaoxie disagreed a little, and leaned close to Zhang Zhu's ear, "It's not necessary, Lao Itch said he remembers the way."
Zhang Zhuoxun glanced at Lao Chi who was looking out the window to see the scenery, and lowered his voice, "How do you know he won't remember the wrong way and lead us into the ditch? It's convenient to have a familiar passerby. Don't worry, I'll pay for it."

Wu Xiaoxie stared and cursed in a low voice, "Is this what you mean? Do you have too much money to burn?"
Zhang Zhuoxun smiled and stuffed a lemon candy into his hand, "That's it."
Wu Xiaoxie took a deep breath and said, "I won't eat this flavor."
"Then you choose." Zhang Zhuoxun spread his palms smoothly.
Wu Xiaoxie grabbed the only two toffees inside, and Zhang Zhuxun threw the rest to the grimacing Lao Itch.
The fellow took the three of them to a small farmhouse hotel.
Zhang Zhuxun went to tell the proprietress about the food he wanted to eat later, and asked her to prepare it and deliver it directly to him, adding money.
When I returned upstairs, I saw Wu Xiaoxie and Lao Chu standing by the window with a small crack open, whispering something mysteriously.
Seeing Zhang Zhuxun coming up, Wu Xiaoxie waved to him quickly, "Muyu, come quickly and take a look."
"What's wrong?" Zhang Zhu walked over.
Wu Xiaoxie pointed to a few cars that had just stopped below and said: "Look at those cars, do they have foreign license plates and model colors that are similar to those parked outside the food stall before?"
Zhang Zhuoxun looked over, and the person in the car just opened the door and came out. He raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's true."
Lao Itch looked flustered and stammered: "He, they are following me, us."
"Probably not." Zhang Zhuxun shook his head, "Don't forget that their goal may be the same as ours, they are all heading for the ancient tomb."
"Then, what should we do?" Lao Itch asked.
Wu Xiaoxie is also a little worried.
"It's okay." Zhang Zhuxun patted Wu Xiaoxie's shoulder reassuringly, "Let's try not to go out and avoid running into them. They have many people and complete equipment. When the time comes, we will follow them directly and let them stay.
Help us find the way ahead."
Wu Xiaoxie and Lao Itch both had evil smiles on their faces.
After dinner, the three of them chatted for a while and then went to rest separately.
At three o'clock in the morning, Zhang Zhuxun, who was lying in bed, opened his eyes suddenly, got out of bed quietly and walked to the door. He leaned his ear against the door and listened quietly for a while, when a short knife appeared in his hand.

The door lock made a very slight turning sound.
Zhang Zhuxun took two steps back, quietly waiting for the mouse outside the door to fall into the trap.
【Host Beware】
The system suddenly sounds a reminder.
Sure enough it was him.
Zhang Zhuxun raised the corners of his mouth, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
With a ding, something fell to the ground, and the movement outside the door stopped for a moment.
Zhang Zhuxun could imagine that the other party was leaning on the door, listening carefully to what was going on inside.
After more than ten seconds, as if sensing danger, the rustling sounds outside the door started again, and the footsteps deliberately slowed down and sped up to move away.
Zhang Zhuoxun's eyes narrowed, he grabbed the handle and quickly opened the door, only to see a black figure flashing past the corner of the corridor.
Looking down at the ground, there is a half-length special iron hook lying quietly on the ground at the door.
With a sneer, Zhang Zhuoxun knelt down and picked up the hook, went back to the house, closed the door, closed the plug, threw the hook on the table, turned around, went back to the bed, lay down, and closed his eyes.
[System, my hearing seems to have improved a lot.]
【Auxiliary functions for night vision】
[Yo] Zhang Zhuoxun laughed, [You are so considerate.]
The system responded with a polite and elegant smile [You're welcome]
The three of them got up early the next day.
Wu Xiaoxie nestled by the window, chewing the meat buns in his hand and staring at those people's cars.
Lao Itchi came and wandered around for a while and saw that there was no movement for a while, so he said he would go back and catch up on his sleep.
Zhang Zhuxun came out after washing and glanced at the table. The hook was gone.
He didn't say anything and just pretended not to know.
It wasn't until noon that the group finished eating and then left the farmhouse carrying their equipment.
Zhang Zhuoxun and the other two people also hurriedly checked out of the room and followed them after they left.
After following them until midnight, the group finally stopped and seemed to be setting up camp to rest.
Wu Xiaoxie collapsed on the ground, sighing and rubbing his legs, "It's really going to kill me, those people are so capable of leaving."
Zhang Zhuxun laughed at him, "That's not going to work, little comrade Tianzhen, it's normal to travel across mountains and rivers in our industry. I told you before that I would give you time to exercise, so that you would suffer less when the time comes, but you just didn't listen and were too lazy to move.
You must be suffering now."
"Stop being such a bitch and saying sarcastic words." Wu Xiaoxie smiled bitterly and leaned against the tree trunk, not wanting to move.
Zhang Zhuoxun threw him a small bag of individually wrapped snacks to fill his stomach first.
Then he took out three boxes of self-heating meals from his backpack (space) and threw one box to Lao Itchi.
Pour some water on yourself and Wu Xiaoxie and put them aside.
They were less than ten meters away from the group, so it was impossible for a fire to start. Fortunately, Zhang Zhuxun had anticipated this situation and prepared waterproof military boots and jackets for him and Wu Xiaoxie. They were also waterproof.
Still bearable.
Compared to them, Lao Itch was much worse. His clothes and shoes were wet with fog, and he couldn't make a fire to dry them, so he huddled up in the cold.
Lao Itch cursed, "We can't continue like this."
"How about, how about we sneak over there and listen to what they are saying? What if, if we can, we can find some clues, right?"
Wu Xiaoxie thinks what he said makes sense.
After finishing the meal in twos and twos, the three of them walked toward their campfire furtively.
Tiptoeing closer, Zhang Zhuxun stretched out his hand to grab Wu Xiaoxie and motioned for him to squat down. It would be enough just here. If he gets closer, his position might be exposed.
It was quiet in the mountains, and those people spoke loudly, so you could hear the content clearly.
What surprised Wu Xiaoxie and Wu Xiaoxie was that there were two Cantonese people inside.
I just listened to them talking nonsense for a while, and one of them, Uncle Tai, said that it would still be at least three days away.
Lao Itch muttered in a depressed voice, "Earlier, if I had known better, I wouldn't have followed, damn it."
