Chapter 618 Clues
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land is one of the four great joys. However, the relationship between Jiao Wenlong and Yang Yiyi has not reached the level of 'old friend', so they can only be regarded as acquaintances.
Jiao Wenlong was very confused about the appearance of the three people here, and Yang Yiyi was also surprised that Jiao Wenlong appeared in southern Xinjiang.
But it was rare to meet an acquaintance, so Yang Yiyi invited Jiao Wenlong to sit down, and then introduced Qin Yan to him.
Yang Yiyi was about to say why she came to Southern Xinjiang. Before she could open her mouth, Qin Yan kicked her lightly under the table, signaling her to shut up and stop talking.
Then Wu Shaoyi asked with a smile:
"Why did Mr. Jiao come to southern Xinjiang?"
So Yang Yiyi is not mean-spirited. You and Jiao Wenlong only met once, and you said everything when you met, which is too honest.
Ning Xian'er and a group of martial arts comrades came to trace the connection between the people from the southern Xinjiang and the people from the western region. The matter itself was very hidden. The matter was not spread among the Jianghu people because they were afraid that there would be traitorous spies among the Jianghu people, so it was not appropriate to do so. Just open your mouth and speak.
Let's leave the negotiation to Wu Shaoyi.
Jiao Wenlong didn't notice the small movements under the table, and immediately replied after hearing this:
"Someone in my family is sick and needs some medicinal materials urgently, so I rushed to southern Xinjiang to search for it."
"I see, we came to southern Xinjiang to look for people. I wonder if Mr. Jiao has ever seen the green forest heroes of the Sixteenth Village?"
Don’t talk about Ning Xian’er, just talk about the Sixteenth Village.
If someone knows about this, of course he will know what is going on as soon as he hears it. People who don't know the inside story will naturally be confused that the green forest heroes from the Sixteenth Village would actually go to southern Xinjiang.
Although I feel a little sorry for Jiao Wenlong, since he has left the Central Plains, he should be more careful.
Wu Shaoyi stared at Jiao Wenlong's expression calmly. His expression was as usual, but he was slightly surprised.
"A hero from the Sixteenth Village actually came to Southern Xinjiang?"
Then he said:
"I've never met him, but I met some martial arts colleagues when I was looking for medicinal materials a few days ago."
When Yang Yiyi heard this, she wanted to ask questions on the spot, but Wu Shaoyi was faster and asked immediately: "Who is it?"
"I don't know many of them, but that guy Gu Tao is here, and he invited me to do something big together. I have something important to attend to, so I declined."
Ben Lei Sword Gu Tao, why is he everywhere?
"Didn't Gu Tao say anything specific about the big event?"
"I didn't say anything, and they seemed mysterious, but they were all dressed up as fellow martial artists. I was eager to ask for medicine at the time, but I didn't ask carefully. I only knew that they seemed to have gone to Phoenix Village."
"Where is Phoenix Village?"
Yang Yiyi intervened, and Jiao Wenlong pointed to the southeast:
"It takes about five or six days to set off from Xiashan Town. The village is quite friendly to us Central Plains people and there are some trade exchanges."
Speaking of this, a man dressed as a servant walked into the inn and saw Jiao Wenlong in the lobby. He hurriedly came over and apologized to Yang Yiyi and the others: "Master, the ferry and carriage are ready."
"Well, I'll come right away."
After saying that, Jiao Wenlong stood up and clasped his fists and said:
"It's rare for us to meet each other, but I have something important to do, so I can't stay for a long time. Take care, you three, and say goodbye."
Yang Yiyi and the other three also stood up to see Jiao Wenlong off and watched him walk out of the inn and head towards the ferry.
It seems that Jiao Wenlong is indeed fine.
The three of them returned to their seats, and Yang Yiyi secretly took out Yugui.
"Brother Li, what do you think?"
"I would rather you go back..." No matter what the reason is, this place in southern Xinjiang is not the familiar Central Plains after all. Just looking at the terrain, we can tell that it must be a barren mountain and harsh water.
But Li Chengqi also knew that Yang Yiyi would not give up until he confirmed Ning Xianer's safety, so he could only sigh and said: "Jiao Wenlong probably didn't lie. Although he can't be sure that Ning Xianer went to Phoenix Village, at least he has Some people definitely went there.”
On the way, the three of them discovered that the knights led by Ning Xianer were divided into several teams to chase the southern Xinjiang people. They were not sure how many groups they were divided into, and they were not sure where Ning Xianer was, but as long as they caught up One of the teams should be able to get some useful information.
"I'll find the waiter later and ask more about it, especially the news about Phoenix Village. They say it's friendly, but after all, it's the territory of the southern Xinjiang people. It's hard to say what I think of the people from the Central Plains."
"oh."
"If you go to Phoenix Village, you must find a caravan to accompany you. You cannot go by yourself, you cannot walk through the woods and over mountains, and you cannot eat food given by people you are not familiar with."
"Why……"
"No long sounds allowed!"
"oh."
Walking with a caravan would waste a lot of time, and it would not be as fast as three people with a small number of people.
But it’s better to be safe!
This person was unfamiliar with the place and didn't even have a map. It was a question of whether he could get out after entering the forest.
"Also, be sure to carefully collect the fish scales that the Water God gave you yesterday. They can avoid water. There are many water nets in southern Xinjiang. There are no advantages or disadvantages in carrying them with you."
When it came to the water god incident, Yang Yiyi told Li Chengqi the first thing in the morning, and he had also seen the fish scales.
Anyway, it’s a good thing given for free, so just take it.
"Also, buy some more medicines in the town before departure and take them with you. Don't go in if you see thick fog in the mountains and forests. I remember I said before that this place is full of miasma. I will find some antidote potions for you later. If you feel uncomfortable, drink it.”
Li Chengqi was like a talkative mother, giving Yang Yiyi instructions one by one.
No way, this girl is too upright, no one knows what will happen, and Li Chengqi can't stare at the computer 24 hours a day, so he can only tell her everything he can think of.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
After hastily finishing breakfast in the inn, the three of them immediately went out to ask if there was a caravan going to Phoenix Village.
Since Fenghuang Village also belongs to the southern Xinjiang tribe that is willing to do business with the Central Plains people, there are caravans going to Fenghuang Village, but even the first one to set off will have to wait until tomorrow.
It has to be said that Li Chengqi's instructions were very timely. Yang Yiyi couldn't wait to catch up with Ning Xian'er. Without Li Chengqi's instructions, she would have just followed the road to Phoenix Village by herself.
But it's not too late to set off tomorrow. It just so happens that the three of them can buy some things that can be used in southern Xinjiang in Xiashan Town. Unfortunately, the terrain of this ghost place is too complicated and there is no reliable map at all.
The three of them wandered around the market for a few times, and the maps they found were all different. Can you believe it?
As for other miscellaneous things, you can find them at the market, such as the most important deworming medicine.
Snakes, insects, rats and ants are everywhere in southern Xinjiang, and the forest is filled with miasma. People from the Central Plains will definitely not be accustomed to the climate here.
How many bugs are there here?
Let's put it this way, the signature dish of the Xiashan Town Inn is the whole insect feast...
Those that repel insects, snakes, detoxify, clear away heat, in short, buy whatever is useful.
It was not until the next day that the three of them, whose luggage was obviously two times larger than the previous day, followed the caravan and drove out of Xiashan Town.
It takes five or six days to reach Fenghuang Village. Fortunately, there are roads on the way, so...
Nothing can go wrong, right?
