"Are they the ones you want to take?" Ma Baoyi's expression returned to normal instantly.
Blind Chen's gray eyes fell on Ma Baoyi, and at the same time he waved to the wolf mastiff, and the wolf mastiff came to his side.
Zhang Er's expression was obviously a little strange.
Ma Baoyi stood up: "My people will come to pick you up tonight, Luo Shiliu, you still have time to prepare."
After saying this, Ma Baoyi left towards the front yard.
After he left, Blind Chen came to me.
Zhang Er looked at it for a moment, then he took off the wooden box and handed it to me. Judging from the size, it is just right for holding a gold abacus.
"With this thing, it won't be so cumbersome." Zhang Er looked quite satisfied.
Blind Chen told me that he had arranged almost everything, and the visitors had also met, and there was a little friction, but it was nothing serious.
He didn't say much, so I didn't ask any more questions.
Zhang Ercai asked me, what did I say to Ma Baoyi just now?
I hesitated for a moment. I didn't tell Zhang Er about Ma Baoyi's fate, but only about the dangers he might encounter during this trip.
Zhang Er was thoughtful and didn't ask any more questions.
In the end, I couldn't bear the doubts in my heart and asked, what is the relationship between him and Zhang Jiugua?
I didn't think about it in detail before. When he mentioned Zhang Jiu Gua before, he didn't go into many details.
It's just that he had such a big reaction to Zhang Jiugua's suicide note, and coupled with this wooden box now, I know that he must be related to Zhang Jiugua.
Zhang Er was silent for a moment, but did not answer my question. Instead, he asked me to think about what else I need to prepare? It is best to bring one or two people with you who can help at any time.
If he didn't say it, there would be nothing to say.
I returned to the side courtyard, checked my belongings, and made sure there was nothing missing, so I just waited for it to get dark.
In fact, I made a plan to tell blind man Chen a fortune, but he said that he had already had enough fortune telling in his life and was unwilling to do any more. I couldn't force blind man Chen.
Feng Zhirong did not show up today, but Feng Bao packed his luggage and was obviously going to leave with me.
After what happened in Xiaoliu Village, I now clearly understand how important it is to have people around me, so I didn’t refuse.
When it was getting dark, I received a call from Ma Baoyi.
After leaving the gate of Feng's house, there was a modified SUV parked outside, with a dark body and many wear marks on it.
Ma Baoyi was sitting in the passenger seat, and in the driver's seat was a skinny woman, about thirty years old, with bulging temples and short hair. She looked very capable and capable.
When I got in the car, I smelled a special smell, like musk mixed with corpse odor, and the inside of the car was cool and depressing.
Ma Baoyi introduced to me calmly that the person driving the car was his housekeeper named Ma Lianyu.
I couldn't help but pay more attention, but I couldn't see anything special about it.
The drive took longer than I thought.
After leaving Feng's house, I went straight onto the expressway. I got off several national highways and expressway changes along the way, and basically only rested twice in the service area.
The next day, we drove for most of the day, and it wasn't until dark that the car got off the toll station.
Although Ma Baoyi didn't say where we were going, I kept looking at the map on the way. When the car stopped outside a house on the outskirts of a county town, I already knew that we had arrived at various counties in Liangzhou.
Although it has not left the province, this area is completely different from Neiyang City.
There are many ethnic minorities in Liangzhou, especially since this road leads to the Tibetan area, and there are not many Han people anymore.
Some pedestrians on the road were wearing colorful Tibetan costumes. All of them were tall and almost all had dark and red skin.
And the weather here is even colder. I shivered uncontrollably after getting out of the car.
The house in front of us has high walls and deep courtyard, which makes it feel quite heavy.
"Have a rest for the night. There is a village nearby. We will check the weather tomorrow before heading into the mountains."
Ma Baoyi's voice brought me back to my senses.
"A mountain without soil?" I said subconsciously.
Ma Baoyi shook his head and said: "Ji Niang Mountain."
I was stunned.
Ma Baoyi had already opened the courtyard door and walked in, while his housekeeper Ma Lianyu loomed behind us, urging us to do the same.
Blind Chen didn't say much, but the cigarette in his mouth had not been extinguished. The wolf mastiff raised its nose from time to time, as if it was sniffing something.
Zhang Er's voice was much calmer: "Sixteen, there is no need to ask any more questions. You will know after you go up the mountain."
"..."
I was a little speechless and choked for a moment. Regarding Zhang Er's performance, I felt it was unnecessary...
There is actually nothing wrong with saying a few more words. On the contrary, it seems to be said without saying anything, which makes people undecided.
Feng Bao, who was next to me, took a few breaths and said, "Ji Niang Mountain is very beautiful. I have accompanied the head of the family here before. Mr. Luo, you will definitely be amazed when you meet him tomorrow. There are thick trees at the bottom of the mountain. But when you get to the mountain, it’s all ice peaks.”
"If we want to go up the mountain, I'm afraid we need to prepare oxygen bottles. The altitude here is already very high." Feng Bao's words shocked me.
There are thick trees at the foot of the mountain and icy peaks on the mountain? Isn't this a coincidence with Wu Tu?
It's just that the soilless mountain will definitely not be that simple. Otherwise, Zhang Er wouldn't have said what he said to me before.
How can a mountain become a mountain without soil?
The foundation of this soilless mountain is based on the principle of burying one's body to gain vitality, and it is also combined with the method of burying shadows. This cannot really be called Wu Tu.
The inside of the house is even more quiet. Although there are lights on the paths, it is extremely dark. The same is true for the courtyard where we were accommodated. Each person has a room, and the quilt smells of dampness.
The food for dinner in the evening was beef offal soup with a strong smell of mutton. Ma Lianyu also brought a ferocious live chicken to the wolf mastiff, which the wolf mastiff ate with gusto.
Ma Baoyi looks a bit like Ma Baozhong at night under the moonlight.
When Ma Baoyi and Ma Lianyu left the yard at the end of the day, they told us to have a good rest at night.
Moreover, he said one more sentence.
Tonight, when we go to Ji Niang Mountain, there is a banquet for the bun women to marry their husbands, and the local Mr. Yin visits the tomb.
It's dark for others, so it's best not to wander around.
If it were me, if I wanted to go out and have a look, I could go for a walk.
I think this means something.
Humans are animals driven by curiosity. If Ma Baoyi said it was dangerous, then we would definitely not move around much.
But he said that if I was curious, I could go and have a look. This wasn't just telling me, but he didn't let anyone else move around.
Do you want to go alone with me?
Taking a deep breath, I nodded and said I understand, without explicitly replying to Ma Baoyi.
