"Miss, don't worry!" Xiao Hei patted his chest and said, "I'll be waiting for you here. If you don't come out, I will never leave."
"Yeah." Meng Shiyu nodded and said, "But one thing you have to remember is that we are new here and don't understand the rules here. Don't talk nonsense and be careful when doing things. Don't conflict with the villagers here, otherwise we will
It might be troublesome."
"Miss, just go about your business with peace of mind! It's not the first day that I, Xiaohei, come out to do things. I understand what you said. I promise that I will never make any mistakes."
After Meng Shiyu told the driver Xiaohei, she walked into Tieshu Village with me.
What we were looking for was Orion Lao Tie, but we didn’t know where Lao Tie lived. Just when we were about to find someone to ask, a young man carrying a hoe came across from the opposite side.
I stepped forward and asked, "Brother, we are coming from out of town, can we ask you about someone?"
As I said that, I took out a pack of Zhonghua from my pocket and handed one to the young man.
The young man took my cigarette with a smile and said with a smile, "Okay, if you want to ask anyone, just ask! I have grown up here since I was a child, and there is no one in the entire Tieshu Village that I don't know."
"Okay, little brother, I heard that there is an old Orion hunter in your village. I want to know where he lives. We have something to ask him for." I said with a smile.
"Old Orion!" the young man patted his body and said, "I thought who you were looking for, but it turned out to be him. Let me tell you, keep walking to the east end of the village. When you reach the end, you will see a
A house on the second floor is the home of Mr. Orion."
After we thanked the young man, we headed in the direction he said to find Old Orion.
We walked all the way to the east end of Tieshu Village, and sure enough we saw a small bungalow on the second floor.
Orion Laotie's house was not closed, but wide open, and there were sounds of wood chopping coming from inside.
Seeing that the door was open and there was movement coming from inside, Meng Shiyu and I walked straight in.
When we walked in, we found a middle-aged man sitting on a small bench in the yard, chopping wood with an ax.
There are many dried game and wild fruits hanging in the yard, and a large bow hangs on the wall directly opposite.
I knocked on the door and asked, "Are you an Orion veteran?"
After Orion Lao Tie heard the sound, he raised his head and looked at Qin Xiang and me suspiciously, "I am Lao Tie, who are you?"
If he admits that he is an old Orion hunter, then it will be easier.
Qin Xiang and I walked forward and looked at Old Orion, "My name is Zhao Dongfang and she is Meng Shiyu. We came from out of town and have something to do with you."
"What's the matter?" Old Orion asked simply and clearly.
Let's ask you a question first: "When you went hunting in the mountains before, have you ever seen a strange herb? It's the kind where half of the surface is white, but the other half is black."
Old Orion stared at Meng Shiyu and me for a long time, and then said slowly, "There is such a powerful herbal medicine."
Meng Shiyu took a step forward, then fumbled in her bag for a while, and finally took out a wad of hundred-dollar bills, "Here is one hundred thousand. We have no other requirements. Just take us there."
Old Orion looked at the hundred-dollar bills in front of him in surprise, "You mean, as long as I take you there, these will all be mine?"
"Yes." Meng Shiyu said.
Old Orion didn't speak, but walked aimlessly near us with his hands behind his back.
Finally, he walked up to me, held out two fingers and said, "That herb is very dangerous. I want two hundred thousand."
I looked at Meng Shiyu, who smiled slightly, then rummaged around in his bag again, and took out a wad of hundred-dollar bills, "Okay."
All this money was given by Meng Tao before we set off.
Orion Lao Tie looked at the 200,000 in front of him and was slightly absent-minded. After a moment, he said, "I'll tell you two first. That place is very, very dangerous."
I raised my eyebrows, "Why is it dangerous?"
The old Orion hunter hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Is this what you heard outside? I once went hunting in Dawang Mountain, and then got lost when I came back, and finally found a strange pool. Is this the case?"
"Yes." I nodded. Now that I heard what Orion said, is there any hidden meaning in this?
Old Orion then said, "Actually, that's not the case at all."
"Is it surprising that you didn't find that strange pool?" I asked in surprise.
If this is the case, then our trip will be in vain, and what does it mean for Orion Lao Tie to accept me and our 200,000 yuan?
Old Orion waved his hand and said, "I did see that strange pool, but some of the details are different from what you understand.
I did see that strange pool, but it was in an ancient tomb. I was walking back that day because I had gone too far to hunt, so I lost my way.
It was already dark, and I was lost again, so I felt anxious!
In this hurry, I accidentally fell into a cave. I was surprised to find that the cave was actually an ancient tomb. I wandered around in the ancient tomb for a long time.
Then I saw that weird pool, but I also encountered a lot of dangers in it. It can be said that I almost escaped death. If you want to go, I can take you there, but I will only take you to the entrance of the tomb.
It's too dangerous, I don't dare to go in. And you also need to think clearly."
The strange pool that Orion saw was actually in an ancient tomb. This situation is a bit complicated.
But speaking of it, this is not the first time I have entered an ancient tomb. When I was in Lujia Town, I had already entered it once with Loach and Lao Bai.
Unknowingly, I also had some experience.
I looked at Meng Shiyu, who nodded to me.
So I said to Mr. Orion, "Okay, we all agree with what you said. As long as you take us to that Mu and explain the location sooner or later, we will find the rest ourselves."
Even if we are in an ancient tomb, even if it is very dangerous, we still have to go there.
After all, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must try our best.
"But look, it's getting dark now. Why don't you stay at my place for one night, and I'll take you there to have a look tomorrow morning."
No problem, just stay for one night.
"By the way, if you live here with me, don't go out at night, because you may encounter a one-eyed old wolf."
