245 Chapter 18 Section 21

Everyone was surprised to see Old Man Zhang's outfit, but when they thought that he was an old hunter, his outfit was in line with reality, so they didn't think much about it and followed Old Man Zhang towards the Western Wilderness.

Walk away.

Under the leadership of Old Man Zhang, the group passed through the Western Wilderness, crossed the cemetery for several miles, and arrived in a birch forest. The trees here were tall and covered the sky and the sun were much cooler than outside the forest. Everyone stepped on the thicker

There were rustling sounds on the thick fallen leaves, which felt very comfortable. If I hadn't been thinking about the matter of Doctor Zhu, I might have felt that I was on an outing this time.

Follow the path among the birch forests and go south. It takes only two miles to walk up and down. The mountain is about six or seven hundred meters long. This mountain is Xiaolong Mountain mentioned by the Jiading.

Old Man Zhang, who was walking in the front, chopped the wild grass branches blocking the road with a mountain knife, while telling the legend of Xiaolong Mountain: According to legend, a long time ago, Gu Yun Jiao was just in the air, and Gu Yun was at that time

The Jiao people made a living by hunting in the surrounding forests. One day, two young hunters walked into Xiaolong Mountain and chased a wild boar into the back mountain. However, the wild boar did not catch it, but lost its direction and walked two times.

I couldn't find a way out all day and night. Just as I was collapsed, a big snake suddenly emerged from the deep pool at the bottom of the mountain. The big snake didn't bite people, but on the contrary it pointed out for the two hunters.

The direction made him return home safely. Later, in order to thank the big snake, the two men prepared a lot of wild animals to search for it, but they couldn't find the savior no matter how they looked for it. In order to commemorate it, they were in the mountains.

A stone tablet was erected before, and the words "Little Dragon Fairy Spirit saves his life, never forgets it for three lives". It is precisely because of this that this mountain was later called Xiaolong Mountain.

After listening to this legend about Xiaolong Mountain, a group of people also climbed up to the mountainside under the guidance of Old Man Zhang. This is the most poisonous time of the day. In addition to Wang Changgui, Liu Ping and Xu Yunde, the other three.

Outside, everyone's clothes were soaked in sweat, including that old man.

Especially Xu Xiaoliu, who was walking at the end of the head, had already been injured. At this moment, he was pickled by the salt of sweat. The corners of his mouth were so painful that he twitched, and he kept humming while walking. But everyone had their own parts at this time.

No one has time to care about his worries.

A mountain of six or seven hundred meters is not tall or short, but it is still difficult to climb to the top of the mountain in this scorching sun. However, although the old man Zhang is not young, he has been hunting all year round

, her body was still very strong. She climbed up all the way, but she was a little breathing, and it was not serious. The two brothers of the Ge family were more than twice as physically healthy than ordinary people. Apart from sweating a lot, she did not even show her heavy breathing.

So after reaching the top of the mountain, the only one who was suffering was Xu Xiaoliu.

At this time, Old Man Zhang stopped first and turned to everyone and said, "The mountain on the back of Xiaolong Mountain is extremely steep. As the saying goes, it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down the mountain. I think everyone should take a rest here first and wait a moment.

Go down the mountain." As he said that, he glanced at Xu Xiaoliu, who was lying on a big rock like a dead pig.

When others heard this, they nodded, and then found a cool place to sit down and rest. Old Man Zhang untied the kettle from behind and handed it to Xiaoliu to drink some thirst. The rest of the people came in a hurry.

They didn't bring water, but they were very physically strong. Not to mention one, they could even get rid of such a small hill even if they climbed up to seven or eight.

Thanks to the kettle handed by Old Man Zhang, Wang Changgui got up and walked to the edge of the cliff. Looking down, he saw that the back of the mountain was really steep. The slope of nearly 60 degrees was like being slashed by a sword by the god.

It looks extremely majestic.

However, what Wang Changgui was not paying attention to was not these, but was carefully looking for each place. He understood very well, like this kind of hanging wall, it would flow to the end. If he was not careful and slipped, it would be

It’s a life of death, so you must be fully prepared before going down the mountain.

Liu Ping also came to Wang Changgui at this moment, looked down, and then said, "Immortal, you don't need to worry too much. I think that if his surname Zhu can continue, we can do it. Besides, although this cliff is steep,

, but it still has some slopes. There are still some vines and shrubs on the cliffs, so it should not be a problem to pedal your feet and grab your hands."

Wang Changgui shook his head and said, "That's the case, the clerk said before that, the cave where the surname Zhu hid was on the hillside, not on the bottom of the hill. If we were too far away and we would be hard to find it.

When you reach the bottom of the mountain, it may be even more difficult to look up!”

Before Liu Ping could reply, Xu Yunde, who came back, said first: "This is not easy to deal with. The head of the cave entrance said that there are many weeds one person tall. When we go down later, let's just go to places with a lot of grass.

?”

After hearing this, Liu Ping and Wang Changgui shook their heads together. Xu Yunde saw this and said in confusion: "We are? Is this method not working?"

Wang Changgui did not reply, then swept his eyes to the hanging wall again, while Liu Ping said to him: "Brother Xu, if you really use the method you think, then we might be exhausted!"

"What do you mean?" Xu Yunde was puzzled and walked to the edge of the cliff. When he looked around, he realized how funny what he had just said was. It turned out that there were large patches of weeds and shrubs on the cliff.

Not to mention how tall one person is, even the deep grasses of the two of them are everywhere! After seeing this scene, Xu Yunde scratched his head awkwardly and said nothing more.

At this time, Liu Ping suddenly remembered that when a few years ago, when the man in a ditch was looking for a human-faced badger in a reed marshal, he first burned out the reeds with fire. Then the entire water surface, including the small island in the river, was a flat river.

At the end of the matter, he suggested: "Daxian, Brother Xu, do you think if we burn all these weeds and shrubs with fire, will it be much easier to find them?"

When Xu Yunde heard this, he immediately nodded and praised: "Good idea!"

But Wang Changgui shook his head and denied it. He said, "If we really set fire here and all the vines and shrubs are burned out, how can we climb this cliff? This method will not work!"

When Liu Ping and Xu Yunde heard this, they thought about it for a while and nodded in one go. Liu Ping said, "The Great Immortal is right. If it is burned with fire, it is equivalent to cutting off our own way."

At this time, Old Man Zhang also came over. He heard all the conversations between Liu Ping and others before. When he walked to the edge of the cliff, he saw him gazing at the cliff for a long time, and finally his eyes fell on one place.

He said as he saw it, "If I guessed it right, the hiding cave of Zhu must be there!"

When Wang Changgui, Xu Yunde and Liu Ping heard this, they all followed the old man Zhang's pointing in confusion. They saw that although there were a lot of weeds growing where he pointed, they were ordinary and uncommon.

There was no difference, Xu Yunde couldn't help asking: "Old Zhang, are you and Yi determined that the entrance of the cave is there? Could it be that you have been here before?"

Old man Zhang shook his head and said, "Although I have been to Xiaolong Mountain many times, I have never been to the back mountain, so I have never heard of that cave! The reason why I asserted that the entrance of the cave is there is an experience."

When everyone heard this, they were all excited. Wang Changgui was a little moved and said, "Brother Zhang, I would like to hear it carefully!"

Old Man Zhang said: "You should take a closer look at the difference between the upper and lower rock walls?"

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked carefully, but after looking for a long time, they didn't feel anything unusual. Xu Yunde shook his head and said, "I can't see, there seems to be nothing unusual?"

Wang Changgui was also hesitant and stared at him for a long time, but he didn't see any reason in the end. However, Liu Ping said in confusion: "The rock wall above seemed to be slightly more prominent, and the color was slightly brighter, and the one below was

It's more concave and the color is slightly darker."

When Old Man Zhang heard Liu Ping's words, he immediately cast a praise look at her, nodded repeatedly and said, "The difference between the upper and lower rock walls is exactly what this girl said, and the reason why I can assert that the entrance of the cave is at
