Chapter 110 Questions
In the middle of the night, Du Yong got up from the bed, quietly came to the room on the edge of the corridor, and knocked on the door carefully.
"Come in!"
The plain and low voice of Grandpa Zhao San rang out.
Du Yong pushed the door open and closed it, and tiptoed to the table and sat down.
Grandpa Zhao San poured a glass of water and praised with a smile: "The lightness skills are good, there is almost no sound."
Du Yong said seriously: "Master Zhao San, don't think I am the boss of this trip, but except Yang Jin, I hardly know anyone in the team, so I must be careful."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Zhao San asked with interest: "Isn't Lianghe your cousin's husband?"
Du Yong sighed lightly: "Master Zhao San, who do you think the younger generation in Beijing can compete with Lianghe?"
Master Zhao San understood Du Yong's meaning and nodded slightly: "Liang He's cunning and strength are indeed extraordinary. Not to mention that there are only a handful of juniors who can be his opponents, even elders will find it difficult to see this person clearly. Be careful."
Du Yong continued: "You saw that fight today? How about that old Song?"
Master Zhao San said in a deep voice: "At least the fourth level of the tower is to climb."
Du Yong slapped his thigh: "I knew Liang He was lying. When he introduced Lao Song, he said that he was climbing the second level of the tower. Lao Song's tricks were so nimble and cruel, which shows that he was an old man who licked blood from a knife, and he had to be careful."
Master Zhao San secretly praised Du Yong's calmness. If it were ordinary people, even if they didn't regard Liang He and Lao Song as their support, they would at least not beware of them.
Du Yong also spoke about Xiao Luzi's words and asked Master Zhao San's opinion.
Master Zhao San said lightly: "The Fire Wolf Gang has long been thinking of embezzling the Huangsha Gang, and Mu Feixiong has been active frequently in recent years, so the statement of that little Luzi is credible."
Du Yong said, "The Fire Wolf Gang is playing big enough. Are you really afraid that Nie Qingyun will send a large army to encircle and suppress it?"
Pei Huo and the Huolang Gang colluded, and they didn't know what they were going to do.
Grandpa Zhao San sighed: "Although Nie Qingyun is powerful, a Holy Pill Sect is enough for him. The Fire Wolf Gang saw this opportunity and made a public rebellion. If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a gang response. You also know that Meng Ji has supported many evil forces in Dayan over the years. If he doesn't move at this time, when will he wait?"
Du Yongshun guessed: "What do you mean is that there will be chaos in Qianzhou soon?"
Master Zhao San nodded: "That's for sure. You Dali Temple and Weiwei Temple must be prepared for a tough battle."
Let’s talk about the future, the most important thing now is to explore the tomb of the nobles.
Before exploring the tomb, you must ensure that there are no worries. Du Yong asked: "Old man, have you noticed anything unusual along the way? For example, masters follow you?"
Grandpa Zhao San smiled mysteriously: "There are no ones who followed him, but along the way, I found a lot of secret memories."
Du Yong's expression changed slightly: "Is the secret record left by the people in our team?"
Mr. Zhao San nodded: "After leaving the capital, secret notes began to appear. They were either on the ground or on the branches on the roadside. They were marked with directions. They were quite secret, but they could not hide them from me."
Who left the secret notes?
Who do you want to guide you?
What is the purpose?
When he left the city, except for Du Yong and Yang Jin, only He Laosan, Liang He and Lao Song were left.
He Laosan is the most suspicious... No, if he has any problems, there is no need to make secret comments, because he decided the route.
But after thinking about it, Lao Song and Liang He didn't seem to have any special actions along the way.
Du Yong murmured to himself: "Who is it?"
Seeing that he was a little confused, Master Zhao San comforted him and said, "Don't you understand? It doesn't matter, I have all the secret memories removed. Just be careful of the people in the team at any time."
Du Yong breathed a long sigh, put aside his distracting thoughts and talked about the serious matter: "Master Zhao San, I will enter Youmang Mountain tomorrow."
"oh?"
Master Zhao San's eyes were slightly bright and he chuckled: "You are very brave."
Du Yong shook his head: "I only know it too. Do you always know about the Youmang Mountains? Are there any special things to pay attention to?"
Master Zhao San showed a look of remembrance and said lightly: "I remember when I was in my thirties, I went there once, and I went there quite deep. I picked two pounds of mushrooms, beat three fat mice, and sold them for more than 6,000 taels. The reward was indeed quite good. It was indeed quite dangerous. As for the things to be paid attention to, I can only say that plants and trees are more dangerous than birds and beasts. For example, there is a kind of vine deep in the depths, which is as thick as an arm. It seems to be dead, but it is full of vitality. It will actively entangle people. After being entangled, don't think about using brute force to break free. You must use the sharp blade to cut it off with the momentum of thunder or use internal force to break it. There is also a pink flower, taller than humans, which will quietly emit poisonous pollen, which will make people fall into a illusion and hit the most vulnerable part of the soul. It is quite terrible. I was caught in pollen at that time, and remembered some unhappy things, and almost drew my sword and committed suicide..."
"No?"
Du Yong was startled on the spot and asked, "When you were in your thirties, you should have climbed the tower, right?"
Master Zhao San nodded slightly: "My talent is not very high. I just entered the first level of the tower at that time."
Du Yong was shocked and was puzzled: "How did that boy He Lao San go deep into the depths? Not to mention finding a large tomb, and even going in for a while, he didn't climb to the tower."
Mr. Zhao San guessed: "He may have a deep understanding of Youmang Mountain. Or, he did not go in alone at that time, but was taken in by a master. Or, he had never been to Youmang Mountain. The so-called noble tomb was just made up by him. He was entrusted by someone to trick you into the mountain and let you die there."
Du Yong remained silent.
Seeing this, Grandpa Zhao San laughed and said, "Are you scared?"
Du Yong shook his head: "It's not that he is afraid, but that he just thinks that the noble tomb may be ruined, and he feels a little disappointed."
Grandpa Zhao San smiled and said, "Even if there is no noble tomb, it's good to go to Youmang Mountain to have fun. It can increase your knowledge and be lucky. You can still get some wild game and mushrooms. Such a large inn is full of all kinds of people from the world. Aren't they all going for wild game and mushrooms? If you want to dig a tomb, why not go to Dongzhou or Qiongzhou?"
Du Yong heard the words of picking mushrooms again and couldn't help but smile and said, "Let's Ganoderma lucidum."
Master Zhao San didn't mind: "Gingerchid is just a mushroom, it's all picked anyway."
Du Yong thought about it and asked again: "Is there anything besides mushrooms? For example, millennium ginseng or something?"
Mr. Zhao San nodded: "In Youmang Mountain, there are many valuable flowers and plants, so of course there are ginseng. As for whether there are thousands of years of ginseng, I can't say it is certain. It should be, but it's hard to find. I heard that ginseng can walk on their own and it's difficult to catch."
Du Yong laughed silently: "I have heard this statement, but it should be fake, right? Have you ever seen it?"
Grandpa Zhao San shook his head.
Then, Master Zhao San explained some matters about the environment in the mountain and some first aid plans. Du Yong wrote them down carefully and returned to his room to rest.
The next morning, everyone slept until they woke up naturally.
The small square on the side of the inn is surrounded by people, as if they are doing some business.
Du Yong and others squeezed in and saw that there were several people setting up stalls, with flowers and dead birds and beasts on them. They were currently bidding, and more than a dozen people took out thick silver notes, and were not afraid of being targeted.
They should have been brought from Youmang Mountain.
He Laosan said, "These people are amazing. They made so many good things early in the morning."
Du Yong observed carefully and found that except for a few Ganoderma lucidum, he didn't know anything else, so he asked Liang He: "Brother-in-law, what are these things?"
I thought Liang He knew a little, but he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Like you, I only know Ganoderma lucidum."
Old Song glanced at the dead bird that looked about to weigh seven or eight pounds: "I know the one, Qinghuan, and after boiling it, mix it with the white snake grass to make pills, strengthen the kidneys and waist, and the old trees can bloom."
Erhei's eyes shimmered, and his voice was raised: "Boss, how much does that fat bird cost?"
"Four thousand five." The boss didn't raise his head either.
Erhei heard this and didn't even want to bargain, and said dejectedly: "It's so expensive, you can buy half a car for tiger bones."
He Laosan smiled and said, "Didn't you just make a profit?"
Erhei shook his head: "I'll buy a tiger bone bar."
Old Song snorted: "This is just a wholesale price. If you change to a big place, you can at least double the price. This thing is rare and difficult to catch."
Erhei said in confusion: "Then why doesn't this boss sell it in big places?"
Lao Song explained: "I'm too lazy to run around, I'll sell it on the spot, and then go into the mountain."
In addition to those who buy and sell goods, many people carry their luggage and set foot on the path and head towards the mountains and forests in the distance.
Du Yong looked at Chaoyang, clapped his hands, and summoned everyone: "When will we get on the road?"
He Laosan said in a deep voice: "It's good to go on the road early. After breakfast, pack all the things in the car, each person carries a bag. They may have to live in the mountains for the next ten days. Everyone should be mentally prepared."
"Ten days?"
Dahei frowned slightly and muttered, "Do you want that long?"
He Laosan glanced at him: "Most of the time is spent walking. For example, there is a shallow swamp in front of you. The horse cannot pass by, so he can only walk slowly, or even climb over. There is a mountain road that is extremely steep, so you have to use tools to advance..."
"Okay, okay!"
Dahei waved his hand quickly and said indifferently: "I'm listening to you anyway, right?"
He Laosan smiled.
During breakfast, Du Yong found an opportunity to pull Yang Jin aside and presented the exchange with Master Zhao San last night.
