Chapter 255 Entering the Mountain


Chapter 255 Entering the Mountain

The question Chen Ziyan was thinking about was whether to let the person in front of him go.

Based on his age and occupation, he has determined that this person's identity must be the boatman who later took the Wu family into the Water Pirate Cave.

If the person who appeared in front of Chen Ziyan at this time was the boatman who cut the path and blocked the road in the future, then he would naturally send him back to the west without hesitation, which could be regarded as a good person and a good deed.

But now he is not sure whether the young boatman in front of him has done those things.

Just when Chen Ziyan was hesitating, the boatman on the ground had recovered. After secretly glancing at a few people, he wanted to take the opportunity to escape.

He has grown up by this river since he was a child. Needless to say, he has water properties. In addition, he knows the secret of the corpse cave not far away. He is confident that he can escape smoothly as long as he goes in.

But as soon as he stood up, Chen Ziyan in front of him kicked him directly in front of him, causing him to fall to the ground again.

Perhaps due to the boatman's movements, Chen Ziyan, who has a keen sense of smell, immediately smelled a putrid smell.

This smell was not unfamiliar to him. It was the smell of corpses.

This caused his eyes to change when he looked at the boatman, and all the hesitation in his heart was eliminated at this moment.

This smell reminded him that the man in front of him had been eating corpses since he was a child. In his eyes, human life was probably worthless for a long time. Even if he had not yet thought of intercepting the outsiders, he would sooner or later Get that far.

Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in Chen Ziyan's eyes.

In this case, he will eliminate the harm for the people in advance!

Chen Ziyan never thinks that he is a good person, but he will never refuse to do some good deeds.

After thinking about this in his mind, Chen Ziyan made a decision.

He did not do it himself, but took out the little fairy girl from his arms and communicated in their own way.

The little fairy girl immediately understood what Chen Ziyan meant, and looked at the boatman with her strange eyes.

After the boatman was knocked to the ground again, although he did not escape again, he kept observing a few people secretly, so he quickly caught the little fairy's eyes.

After seeing the agility in the boatman's eyes slowly turning into dullness, Chen Ziyan knew that his goal had been achieved.

Touching the head of the little fairy in his arms, he turned to look at the other people beside him: "Let's go, time is running out, let's not continue to waste it here."

Hu Bayi and the others started from Chen Ziyan didn't make a sound when the interrogation began, and just watched quietly from the side.

When I heard Chen Ziyan say this, although I was a little curious, I still followed him and got into the car.

The car was started again and headed in the direction pointed by the boatman just now.

After walking some distance away, Hu Bayi couldn't help but ask: "Master Chen, what happened just now?"

He felt like he understood something, but he didn't fully understand it.

Chen Ziyan didn't hide anything and said directly: "There was something wrong with that person just now."

"When I first saw that grandson, I felt that he was not a good person." Wang Kaixuan was full He looked in agreement, and then asked: "But Mr. Chen, what's the problem with that man?"

"There is obviously a way into the mountain here, but he is still ferrying there, what do you think is his problem?" Chen Ziyan asked back.

Ding Sitian said at this time: "If the next road is a mountain road, then it would be more suitable to transport it by waterway."

She was not defending the man's injustice, but simply raising a possibility.

After so many years of hard work, Ding Sitian is not a soft-hearted person.

Hu Bayi thinks this makes sense: "If this is the case, then we may not be able to drive the car in."

Chen Ziyan has already recalled some relevant matters at this time Wang Kaixuan suddenly said: "Mr. Chen, you mean that there is also a road that can be opened to traffic." ?”

Chen Ziyan nodded: "I asked someone to inquire last night. The archaeological team once made some discoveries here, so there must be a road that can be opened to traffic."

That's why, when he saw the boatman's At that time, I knew why there was still a road here.

"And that guy is not a good person." Chen Ziyan continued.

"Master Chen, what do you mean by this?" This was what Da Jinya asked.

Although the man just now does look weird, he is not a good person, but you can't tell from his appearance.

"That man grew up eating solid meat." Chen Ziyan gave a faint answer.

When they heard what he said, Hu Bayi and Da Jinya were both stunned, and Da Jinya couldn't help but ask: "No way, is there really such a person these days?"< br>
“This is my first time seeing you too.” Chen Ziyan replied.

Wang Kaixuan didn't understand what this meant, so he asked: "What is this solid meat?"

Hu Bayi explained to him: "Solid meat is the meat of the corpse. , got it.”

"This is so fucking disgusting!" Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but cursed when he heard the answer.

He claimed to be somewhat knowledgeable, but he really didn’t expect to encounter such a thing in reality.

Ding Sitian didn't speak anymore, but this answer made her look unhappy. After all, just thinking about this kind of thing would make a normal person's stomach churn.

Chen Ziyan didn't speak anymore. Even he didn't want to discuss this topic too much.

At this moment, a smooth dirt road slowly appeared in front of everyone.

This is a road up the mountain, and they know without thinking that it is the one they are looking for.

While Chen Ziyan and the others were heading towards their destination, the boatman they had left behind suddenly stood up from the ground.

He ran towards the river as if running for his life, and plunged directly into it.

Plop——

With the sound of falling water, ripples appeared on the ground, but it soon returned to its original calmness.

But the boatman who had already entered the water never surfaced again.

But now, except Chen Ziyan and Xiaoxiangu, no one knows the final fate of this boatman.

Chen Ziyan would not tell others carelessly. After all, this place is not like a desert. Some things can be done in secret, but there is no need to publicize it.

As the car continued to move forward, they saw a huge village when they followed this dirt road over the mountains.

The vehicle slowly drove into the village, and Wang Kaixuan immediately saw a small hotel at the entrance of the village.

This hotel looks like it was renovated from an original farmhouse, but the area is quite large. Wang Kaixuan looked at the hotel sign and marveled: "I didn't expect that there would be a hotel in this place, but it is a good thing, otherwise we would have to eat compressed biscuits."

< br>
After finishing speaking, he looked at Chen Ziyan and suggested: "Mr. Chen, you have been walking for so long, why don't we have something to eat?"

Wang Kaixuan is the most popular person in the team. The fat one is also the one who gets hungry the fastest.

I didn’t realize it before I saw the hotel, but now that I saw a place to eat, I felt like I couldn’t bear it.

Chen Ziyan nodded: "It's time to eat something."

Then he parked the car at the door of the hotel.

If they don't have any accidents, as long as they find a place, they will dig a hole overnight to get in. Even if they haven't encountered this place, they still need to make some supplements.

“Okay!” Wang Kaixuan has always been positive about eating. Before the car was turned off, he was already the first to run off.

By the time Chen Ziyan and the others walked in, this guy had already ordered three or four hard dishes.

Chen Ziyan walked into the lobby of the hotel and first observed the environment.

He found that this hotel, although small, was well-equipped. The first floor was obviously decorated according to the template of a hotel, with several square tables placed there.

There was a woman in her thirties inside the store, who seemed to be the proprietress here. She was taking note of the fat man's order.

Wang Kaixuan saw them walking in and greeted them: "Come and take a look. The dishes in this restaurant are quite comprehensive."

A few people walked over to look at the menu, but who He had no interest in choosing. In the end, Wang Kaixuan ordered a few more dishes before the matter was over.

When the proprietress went to the kitchen to inform, Hu Bayi asked his doubts: "Do you think it's a bit strange here?"

"Weird? What's strange?" Wang Kaixuan's mind was filled with thoughts. It's for food. I didn't understand what Hu Bayi meant and asked subconsciously.

Hu Bayi glanced around and said, "This is in the mountains. Not that there are no people around, but they should all be residents here. Isn't it weird to open a hotel here?"

"Maybe it's because of the dirt road." Da Jinya thought for a while and analyzed: "To get rich, build the road first. The road is already there, and wealth will naturally follow. There are rich assets in this mountain forest. In addition, the road conditions are open to traffic, so many merchants who collect mountain goods or medicinal materials may come. This store may be specially designed to entertain these people."

What he said sounds reasonable. Now that the economic environment is great, there is naturally no shortage of buyers for mountain products.

Wang Kaixuan thought about it for a moment and said, "Why are you thinking so much? I'll just ask the proprietress and you'll know later."

While they were talking, the proprietress who had gone to the kitchen had already returned. Wang Kaixuan asked directly: "Let me tell you, boss lady, if you open a hotel here, can you have business?"

This guy has always been straightforward in doing things, and this is no different.

The landlady was also straightforward. When she heard Wang Kaixuan's question, she smiled and said, "Why are there no customers? Why don't you just come here?"

Wang Kaixuan then asked Said: "Are there many of us like this?"

He could tell something was wrong from the words of the landlady. There seemed to be a lot of customers in this place.

The landlady said without hesitation: "It's not too much, but it can happen once a month."

One wave a month?

This answer instantly stunned everyone. After hearing what the landlady said just now, they thought that there should be people from outside here coming here, but they didn't expect that the frequency would be so high.

Hu Bayi asked at this time: "Boss Boss, do you know what they do?"

The landlady said: "Like you, I came here for the ancient tombs in the mountains. Otherwise, in our remote mountainous area, what else would people do here?"

Hearing this, several people exchanged views with each other. They looked at each other.

Except for Chen Ziyan, who had long known that there was a tomb here, everyone else had a flash of surprise in their eyes.

Because Chen Ziyan hasn’t told them yet, they really don’t know there is an ancient tomb here.

Seeing their interest, the proprietress said with a smile: "Everyone around us knows that there is a large tomb from the Western Zhou Dynasty in the mountain, but no one has seen where the tomb is."< br>


She was not surprised by the purpose of Chen Ziyan and others, but she didn't think they would be able to find it.

"I also know that I can't persuade you. You should prepare in advance. Even if you can't find the ancient tomb, it's not a bad idea to come here for a trip." Looking at her proficiency, you can tell what she said. I must have said it often.

Chen Ziyan thought about it for a while and said to the landlady: "Mrs. landlady, please help us open a few rooms."

At first, Chen Ziyan had no intention of opening a room, and they did not plan to stay here overnight. , prepare to start taking action directly tonight.

At this moment, he changed his mind. Since people have been coming here, there must be a guide who is familiar with the nearby terrain.

Although Hu Bayi was able to locate the location through Feng Shui, a qualified guide could undoubtedly help them narrow down the scope and save some time.

And all they need to pay is a sum of money. This is completely a suitable deal.

As expected, after hearing Chen Ziyan’s words, the landlady became even more enthusiastic.

It’s not surprising when she thinks about it. This place is originally a hotel, and she earns more money from accommodation than from a meal, especially since Chen Ziyan and the others have booked a room each.

Hu Bayi and the others could see Chen Ziyan’s intentions, so no one raised any objections.

Except for Da Jinya, all of them are people who have experienced real adventures and know the importance of a qualified guide!

After the boss lady brought all the dishes, Chen Ziyan said to the boss lady: "Boss boss, we want to take a look around later. Do you know any guides who can help us introduce him?"< br>
For such a request, the landlady would not refuse, and immediately agreed: "This matter is easy to handle, I will ask someone to contact you."

After finishing speaking, she After going out, a young man who looked to be in his early twenties walked in not long after.

"This is the hunter in our village who is most familiar with the nearby mountains. It is not an exaggeration to say that he grew up in the mountains. I will let him take you around later. I am sure you can find him anywhere." The proprietress said.

Chen Ziyan looked at the young man and found that he looked strong and his eyes were sharp. He knew that the boss lady was right and he was an experienced hunter.

When walking in the mountains, most of these guides are reliable.

On the contrary, Wang Kaixuan seemed to have discovered something. His thief eyes looked back and forth between the landlady and the hunter guide for several times, as if he had discovered some secret.

But Chen Ziyan is too lazy to pay attention to this. He doesn't care what secrets there are between the two of them, as long as the other party can take him where he wants to go.

Anyway, they will leave after finishing their work and will not stay here for long. Any secrets have nothing to do with them.

"Okay, then I'll trouble this brother!" Chen Ziyan nodded and said.

Then he invited the guide to sit down and have something to eat with him, but he politely declined.

He didn't force it. Everyone met by chance. It was just a pure transaction. It didn't matter if they didn't want to.
