On the winding road that must be passed, countless rocks and soil rolled down, completely blocking the road ahead.
The pile of rocks is even higher than a bus.
Block out the sky and the sun
I can't see the road ahead clearly...
"It's over! This is really troublesome."
Everyone who got off the car suddenly felt cold in their hearts when they saw the scene in front of them.
"We are really unlucky. After taking the train for so long to get here, we haven't even seen the shadow of anything, and we are stopped on the mountainside. You said there is no village in front of you, and no store in the back. Yes, even if we want to find someone to help, we can't find anyone." Putting the fan on his forehead, Da Jinya squinted his eyes and glanced at the layers of rocks and soil in front of him, and frowned a little tangledly.
"If these stones are not big, we can move them, but..." Wang Kaixuan squatted on the ground, reached out and pushed one of the big stones, then frowned and shook his head: "No way, it's too heavy. This thing."
"There are not many residents in this area. Along the way, there is only one car like ours on this mountain road. It is probably impossible to find anyone for help." Lao Hu recalled the previous situation and immediately shook his head.
Listen to the words in your ears
Chen Hao has been silent.
From the moment he got off the bus, he had been observing the situation around him and the rocks. After the many sounds fell, he looked at the many sealed rocks in front of him in silence for a moment, and then stood up and walked towards Li Ergeng.
"Besides this road, is there any other way to the mountains?" Chen Hao got right to the point. He didn't want to come all the way here and have to return home before he saw anything.
Li Ergeng frowned when he heard the sound, and his yellow face slowly sank. After thinking for a moment, he pointed to the other side of the mountain and said: "There is a path that can cross here, but that road has to go over the mountain. And cars can’t get on.”
"Is it far away?" Chen Hao asked.
"If we keep rushing, we should be able to arrive before tonight."
After hearing these words, Chen Hao nodded subconsciously, which meant that it would take half a day to travel.
This is okay and acceptable.
"only......."
Li Ergeng's voice came up again.
"Huh!?" Chen Hao looked back in confusion.
Li Ergeng raised his head with a worried look on his face and said in a deep voice: "That road is a bit evil. Some people say that it is a ghost road! People walking on that road will hear some strange sounds."
"Strange noise?"
"What's that weird sound?" When Da Jinya heard this, he frowned instantly, and the movements of his right hand that fanned Chen Hao slowed down significantly.
Lao Hu and Fatty beside him also looked puzzled.
"I don't know. I just heard that that road was used by ancient emperors to execute prisoners. Many people died there. People who passed by said that there was a long canyon road there, and there were very strange roads on both sides. It was empty, like a cave, where they heard some strange sounds and saw many ghost faces, and the place frightened many people."
"Later, the township teamed up with the neighboring village and a county not far from us to jointly build this road, and no one has ever walked that road again."
Li Ergeng's words made everyone present look a little more serious.
Especially the big gold teeth
He is most afraid of this thing.
Therefore, after hearing these words, he immediately turned his attention to Chen Hao beside him.
Do these words have an impact on Chen Hao? The answer is that it will definitely have a certain impact, but it will not determine Chen Hao's planning and judgment.
As a businessman, he definitely has courage, and he brought people and weapons with him this time.
He is not afraid of ghosts and snake gods, nor does he believe in them.
However, as the leader of the team, he has to keep his mind clear at all times and construct a suitable plan and reasonable arrangements.
Thinking of this, Chen Hao turned around and continued to ask Li Ergeng: "If we wait here, when will the people in the village find out?"
Li Ergeng frowned, then shook his head and said: "Well...it's hard to say. People in the village rarely come out. If you are lucky, you can meet people who go out to sell things. Unlucky, guys. It’s possible to wait here for more than ten or twenty days.”
"Ten or twenty days is too long. We don't have that much dry food." Da Jinya frowned immediately after hearing this.
These words also made everyone's hearts sink.
"Shopkeeper, what do you think?" After a while, the fat man lost his temper. He walked out immediately and asked.
In fact, this kind of thing is an opportunity for fat people to prove themselves.
Do you want to say that he is afraid of the so-called ghost road? There is definitely something there, but compared to this, he is still more willing to show his fierce side. After all, he is more "fierce and fierce"! Now that the opportunity to charge into battle has come, how could he be afraid just because of someone else's rumor?
"I don't want to waste time here." Chen Hao heard the sound and looked back at the mountain, then looked at everyone with a firm expression: "So... I plan to climb directly over the mountain!"
As soon as these words came out
Everyone present had different expressions
But the fat man’s eyes lit up first!
"Come on! As expected of the shopkeeper, you have courage!"
"Fat man, I'm following you!"
The fat man clenched his fist and hammered his chest, then turned to look at Hu Bayi beside him and asked: "Old Hu, are you going?"
Hu Bayi was shocked by the fat man's hasty agreement, and now that he was involved in it, Lao Hu felt helpless.
But now that the topic was brought to him, and it was brought by a small talk, he had no choice but to agree, so he could only nod helplessly.
Seeing that Lao Hu agreed, the fat man immediately said: "Shopkeeper, let me tell you, as long as Lao Hu and I clear the way for you, no matter what kind of ghosts or monsters he dares to show up, I will chop him in the face! We will do it Your Yuchi Gong and Qin Shubao will ensure that you arrive safely."
After hearing Wang Kaixuan's words, Chen Hao immediately smiled and looked at the big golden tooth next to him. However, when his eyes turned to Li Ergeng, he obviously noticed that his eyes were a little dodge. From the way Chen Hao just said he wanted to go, , his expression was obviously uncomfortable.
Noticing this, Chen Hao immediately winked at Da Jinya.
The big gold tooth caught the eye, understood immediately, then smiled, showed the shining big gold tooth, came to Li Ergeng, opened his fan and said with a smile: "Hey hey hey... I said brother Ergeng, don't be afraid ! Our shopkeeper is so vigorous and resolute in his work. He never likes to be passive, he only likes to be active. You will suffer. Just lead us. If we really encounter some ghosts and monsters along the way, we will Since you can handle it, you can help me, and it won't be in vain for us to go there, right? After all...we are going to help the people in your village get rich."
"You think so..."
Da Jinya opened the fan and fanned it in front of Li Ergeng with a smile. This clever mouth also touched on Li Ergeng's pain points.
This time he came out to help the villagers find a buyer. Now the buyer was blocked halfway up the mountain by a landslide and couldn't get up at all. The only way was to take a detour.
Although the road is said to be haunted, that's just what people say.
What if it’s a rumor?
Moreover, he came out with a mission this time. If he could not complete this mission, he would have no way to explain to the village elders when he returned.
In this regard
Li Ergeng was also helpless. In the end, he could only sigh and agreed.
Then, under Li Ergeng's guidance, they changed paths.
After a period of driving, we finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Chen Hao assigned the task.
Led by Li Ergeng
Go up the mountain with Chen Hao, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, and Da Jinya.
The remaining two guys stayed here and watched the car.
Chen Hao handed several bags to them one after another, and took one with him. Then, under the leadership of Li Ergeng, he started on the road again.
There are many mountain trails in the mountains on the border of Shaanxi
Part of it was mined by some mountain people back then.
But this kind of mountain road is different from a driveway. It varies in size and distance. In some places, there are deep ditches and high barriers. If you want to pass by, you must jump over it.
Moreover, the temperature in the border areas of Shaanxi is very high
The feeling became more obvious after I got off the car.
After starting to climb the mountain
The surrounding temperature has increased significantly
It didn’t take long for the group to start sweating profusely.
In this case, water becomes key.
But fortunately, Chen Hao had been prepared beforehand. Before traveling, he would also conduct some inquiries and understanding of the place, so he had plenty of fresh water in his backpack.
along the way
Lao Hu and Fatty walked ahead to clear the way.
Because of the so-called "ghost road" premise before, the fat man was also extra serious, holding the weapon in his hand, really like a trap door god, careful, not letting go of any detail around him.
Such actions and expressions also made Hu Bayi a little bit dumbfounded. He shook his head helplessly, glanced at Chen Hao who was discussing things with Da Jinya behind him, and whispered: "Fat man, what are you talking about?" What are you doing? Since when have you become so concerned about other people's affairs?"
In the first glance of Hu Ba, the fat man in the past was just a man who spent three days fishing and two days drying nets. Although he was indeed brave and dared to do anything, it was hard to see him being so positive towards one person or one thing. Take heart.
Especially about Chen Hao!
Even though he knew that there might be a ghost, he still came here with pat on his chest. This made Hu Bayi somewhat unfamiliar with him.
Hearing these words, the fat man was not surprised. Instead, he smiled disapprovingly and said, "Old Hu, we are no longer who we were before. People must learn to climb up. What can I think of during this period?" Understand, in this world, only making money is king! Look at us now that we are rich, who can’t think highly of us? Take the people at the entrance of the alley, for example, when Fatty and I were down and out, they looked at me like It was like looking at the god of plague, but later I found out that I had made money by selling my jade, and each of them called me "fat man" and called me "kind"!"
"I know how much I weigh, and I also know what I am best at! But I also have a temper, Fatty. My passion, Fatty, is only sold to people who know the goods. Those who can really catch my eye are So many, then why does Zhang Fei follow Liu Bei wholeheartedly? It’s because Liu Bei knows the goods, and the guy behind us is the one who knows the goods.”
The fat man raised his thumb and pointed at Chen Hao behind him.
Hu Bayi's face was filled with shock when he heard these words.
He never expected that Fatty would be able to preach to him one day! Moreover, he, who is simple-minded, can actually say such a big truth that even he can't find fault with.
Fatty has really grown up
Along the way, Hu Bayi felt more or less worried and helpless, but when he listened to Fatty's words, he suddenly had some new understandings in his heart.
Maybe he didn't know Chen Hao as well as Fatty, but he understood Fatty's feelings. After all, Fatty was his childhood friend. His reaction at this moment really calmed down Hu Bayi's heart.
"Just watch, Fatty, the person I like is definitely the right one!"
Hu Bayi was shocked by the fat man's words.
Maybe he couldn't 100% understand what Fatty was thinking at the moment, but he did have some new understanding of Chen Hao...
Maybe...is it really what the fat man said?
