Chapter 780: Groundhog

In fact, Xiaozhu and I have the same idea.

If this method doesn't work.

Think about it after you get there.

The driver was driving very fast.

We arrived in Badong in the evening.

It is a small but very distinctive city, and the night view of the city is quite beautiful.

But we have no intention of enjoying it at all.

Urged the driver to take us to Chadianzi Town.

Arrive at Chadianzi Town.

We found a small hotel and stayed.

When we were coming down the mountain from the Taoist Temple, Mr. Cui asked us to disguise ourselves as much as possible when we went out. He meant that we were wearing human skin masks, but this thing was actually very uncomfortable to wear, and the most important thing was that it was extremely ugly. I didn’t want to pretend to be an old turtle dove anymore. Then we asked Xiaozhu to put on makeup for us.

Because I knew this time I was going into the mountains.

We look like merchants who purchase medicinal materials.

It was very late after settling in.

Several people had to rest first.

Early the next morning.

We found a small shop for breakfast and started asking the shop owner. He said that we were here to collect medicinal materials from the mountains. We wanted to buy a medicinal material called "frozen Tenghua" in Shennongjia. We didn't know if the nearby mountain people had it.

The shop owner asked us what frozen flowers were, but we had never heard of them.

I thought that I had never heard of it and it was just a plant that I made up, so I said to the shop owner: "This is a magical medicinal material that grows in the cold place on Shennongjia Mountain. Pick it and grind it into powder, and compare it one by one." Paired with Tianqi and in mutton soup, with just one bowl, a man will turn from eighty to eighteen, young women will praise him, and if you ask the uncle what he ate, the frozen flowers will appear on Shennongjia!"

Xiaozhu's face suddenly turned red.

Sanheizi saw this and asked Xiaozhu why he was blushing.

Xiaozhu replied: "The buns are too hot, they're burning!"

The shop owner laughed and said to call us and ask someone who sells yam materials in the town.

After making the call, he came back and said to us: "People say there is no such thing. If you have a physical object, you can show it to them. Maybe the name is different here."

I frowned and said, "I really didn't bring any real objects with me this time, and I forgot to take photos... Boss, are there any more experienced hunters nearby? Let them take us up the mountain to look for them. Fresh frozen Tenghua flowers are more effective!" Of course, it’s best for the guide to be around 20 years old. After all, you have to travel through mountains and rivers and find cold places, which is too much for older people’s bodies.”

The shop owner said: "There are some hunters, but there is only one about 20 years old, named Bai San, who lives at the east end of the street."

I nodded: "Okay! We'll find him later!"

The store owner said: "He is not at home these days."

I asked: "Where did you go?"

The shop owner replied: "I heard that a group of people from the Bird Watching Association came a few days ago and asked him to be a guide to go up the mountain to see birds."

I said with great regret: "What an unfortunate coincidence! Does he have any brothers or friends? Just the kind of people who often go hunting with him in the mountains. People who play with young people should not be too different in age!"

The shop owner replied: "You should give up on this idea! Bai San has lost his parents since he was a child. He has a very withdrawn personality. He has always been a loner and no one has ever played with him."

This surprised us.

I gave the shop owner 100 yuan and asked him to make a few calls and introduce some experienced hunters to come to the hotel to find us.

In the morning, a few hunters who were hunting nearby did come.

While we were chatting with them, we asked two core questions in a discreet manner. One was whether there was a place called Guanghan Palace or a magical ice cave on Shennongjia Mountain, and the other was what Bai San was like as a person.

In the first question, the ice caves they mentioned were all tourist attractions.

The answer to the second question was surprisingly consistent with that of the store owner, saying that no one nearby paid any attention to the eccentric Bai San.

This is the end.

The first snooping plan we devised basically collapsed.In the afternoon.

Based on the information we got from the chat, we quietly went to where Bai San lived.

Bai San lives on the edge of the town.

A very old house, still an adobe house, with an iron lock on the outside of the door.

Even the house is so lonely!

By evening.

Sanheizi said: "This 100 million is wasted!"

I shook my head: "It's not a waste."

Sanheizi asked: "Why is it not in vain? Boss, you must not say that 100 million is just to have a good relationship with that charlatan. The price is too high."

I explained: "The most important news given by the Vulture Whistle is to let us know that Haiye has asked Bai San to be his guide. The purpose of our visit this time is, firstly, to save Dai Lin, and secondly, to destroy Haiye to get the ice." The plan of the pagoda. To achieve these two goals, it is best to go up the mountain, but if you can’t go up the mountain, it may not be impossible to complete.”

Sanheizi was confused.

Xiaozhu suddenly said: "I understand! Brother, what you mean is that if we really can't go up the mountain, we can just wait here. As long as Bai San comes back from the mountain, we can know it from Bai San's mouth immediately What did Master Hai do on the mountain, and where did he go after he came down from the mountain? Then we will find a way to find Master Hai, rescue Dai Lin from him, and seize the Ice Pagoda!"

I looked at Xiaozhu in surprise: "Your reaction speed is a bit scary!"

Xiaozhu lowered his head and smiled shyly: "I learned it from my sister in the mountains these days!"

Hearing this, Sanheizi rolled his eyes: "No wonder I'm getting stupider and stupider, and I made the wrong mistake..."

I look at him.

Sanheizi swallowed the second half of the sentence.

At the moment we are completely in dire straits.

The solution Xiaozhu just said is a no-op solution.

The only worry is.

After Haiye found the Ice Pagoda, for fear of leaking the news, he killed Bai San and then went down the mountain from another place.

to his character.

It is entirely possible.

Then it will be in vain for us to wait here for ten years.

Tell the truth.

The psychological comfort component of this method is greater than the actual effect.

It was already too late to see the sky.

It is useless to think too much.

I asked them to rest first.

But at this moment, the phone suddenly rang, and it was the call from Vulture Whistle.

After connected.

Vulture Whistle asked anxiously: "Brother, have you found Bai San's residence?"

I replied: "I found it, what happened?"

When the Vulture Whistle heard this, his tone was very excited: "Great! Brother, you are too particular. I didn't complete the exploration task as you asked, and you actually paid me directly! From last night to just now, I have been feeling guilty and tossing and turning. After thinking about it for a day and a night, suddenly an idea flashed and I thought of a person who can lead you up the mountain to find your target!"

I was surprised: "What are you talking about?"

Vulture Whistle explained: "There is a profession that is more mysterious than our quack pigeons. They are called earthworms! I think of a earthworm I met more than ten years ago. As long as you can go to Bai San's residence and get his With your underwear, the bug can lead you to find Bai San! As long as you find Bai San, you will definitely find the target you are looking for!"

Groundhog? !
