"Xiao Zhang looks thin, but he didn't expect to be so strong."

Looking at Ye Wu, who was carrying two heavy packages on his shoulders, but was not tired at all, and was not blushing or out of breath, Lao Li was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but look at Ye Wu with admiration.

I also thought that Ye Wu was a college student and had won numerous awards. He seemed to be very good.

For a time, Lao Li Tou was entangled in letting Ye Wu become a temporary worker.

"Old man, what are you doing? Miss Wan and everyone are here, hurry up!"

In the hotel lobby, the old woman's impatient voice suddenly came.

"Xiao Zhang, please take the back door and lead the horse to the front door."

"When you meet Miss Wei later, you just pretend to be mute and don't speak in the audience. Do you understand?"

Old Li Tou said quickly.

Ye Wu squeaked, said nothing, and quickly nodded.

The image of a simple and honest mute was brought to life by Ye Wu.

Old Li Tou felt relieved and hurried towards the lobby.

the other side.

Ye Wu led the horse, carried two large packages on a pole, and walked through the back door to the front yard of the hotel.

The front gate.

Three black off-road vehicles lined up.

A dozen bodyguards in black suits, sunglasses, and bluetooth headsets on their ears stood in a straight line along the trail.

All the bodyguards looked respectful and looked at the woman in a white suit in front of them.

The woman was dressed formally, young and beautiful, and exuded the majesty of a superior person.

Although the woman is beautiful, her expression is very cold. The whole audience is silent and has a majestic aura.

On the side, an old British-style butler was talking to Old Li Tou.

Seeing Ye Wu approaching, all the bodyguards looked at Ye Wu with sharp eyes.

Ye Wu couldn't help but shiver, his eyes full of fear and panic.

The image of an ignorant rural person is vividly interpreted.

"Old Li Tou, what do you mean?"

"This time we go into the mountains, our Wan family only needs you to be our guide. Who asked you to lead people?"

The old housekeeper shouted angrily.

The woman did not speak, but frowned slightly, with a trace of displeasure flashing in her eyes.

"Miss Wan, Butler Wang, you two don't know something."

"This time we are going to Daxueping. There are many mountains and ridges along the way. Not only is the terrain very complex, but there may be many unknown dangers."

"This guy's name is Zhang Xuanling. He is my nephew. His family lives near Daxueping."

"If something unexpected happens then, this kid can go to the village and call for help."

"Miss Wan, although you have many people, they do not live in mountainous areas all year round. Under some extreme conditions, all of them combined may not be as effective as my nephew alone."

Old Li Tou said quickly.

"And my nephew is mute. He is honest and honest. He doesn't talk nonsense."

Old Li Tou added.

"How much does your uncle give you a day's salary?" The woman looked at Ye Wu.

Ye Wu quickly stretched out five fingers.

"500 yuan?"

The woman was taken aback.

Ye Wu quickly shook his head.

"50..."

Old Li Tou said quickly, "Miss Wan, please leave it alone. 50 yuan is a lot locally."

"Do a good job and I'll give you 500 more." The woman suddenly smiled.

Ye Wu quickly bowed and saluted, his eyes full of gratitude and excitement.

In response to Ye Wu's gratitude, the woman nodded slightly to show encouragement.

Ye Wu became more and more excited.

"Miss, that Zhang Xuanling is just a mute and a country bumpkin, so why should you pay attention to him?"

After getting in the car, the old housekeeper was a little confused.

"Uncle Wang, don't underestimate anyone. Daxueping's no-man's land is too dangerous. I just said a few words of encouragement and smiled at that boy."

"Sometimes, maybe a small and insignificant person can make a big difference."

"And even if that kid is useless, he is so pitiful, and I have the ability to help him. If I can help him, I will help him. It doesn't matter."

"Grandpa said to be kind to others, and to help the weak as a human being, you can accumulate merit."

The woman laughed.

"Miss, you are sincere and kind. Don't worry, I will definitely recover from my illness."

The old housekeeper quickly flattered him and said with a smile.

The woman smiled, said nothing, lowered her head and continued reading.

Got it!

Do you think this woman is an ignorant country bumpkin who can't walk at the sight of a beautiful woman?

Little did the two know that the conversation was overheard by Ye Wu.

Ye Wu couldn't help but look at the woman with admiration.

This woman seems to be cold to others, but she has compassion for the people at the bottom and is very kind.

What a nice woman!

What Wan Ruxue didn't know was that it was precisely because of her compassion that Ye Wu decided to protect her safety during her trip instead of leaving early.

……

3:10 am.

"set off!"

Lao Litou was riding a horse, his rickety back straightened for an instant, his whole person looked majestic, and he took the lead in leading the way.

Three off-road vehicles followed.

Inside the off-road vehicle in the middle.

"Miss, this old Li Tou is quite a talent. Do you want to recruit him after this trip?"

The old housekeeper said casually.

"Then it depends on his destiny."

"If he doesn't die during this trip, let alone him, even that kid can't be recruited."

The woman said lightly, looking down at a yellowed ancient book without any intention of looking up.

Obviously, whether to recruit Lao Li Tou or Ye Wu as a dog is insignificant to women.

now.

Wan Ruxue flipped through the ancient books in her hands, her eyebrows furrowed and her eyes full of confusion.

"Before grandpa fell into coma, he gave me this ancient book and asked me to take it to Daxueping so that I could get help and save his life."

"But Daxueping is more than 5000 meters above sea level. That place is the most dangerous no-man's land. How could there be someone there and waiting?"

Wan Ruxue thought for a long time, but had no clue. She could only close the ancient books, close her eyes and start to take a nap, no longer thinking about anything else.

5 points in the early hours.

When the sky brightened slightly, a hint of fish belly white appeared.

Old Li Tou pulled the reins and stood upright.

A towering mountain appeared in front of everyone.

Ye Wu followed several bodyguards and walked out of the third off-road vehicle from behind.

Looking at the huge and spectacular mountains that stretched for thousands of miles in front of him, Ye Wu couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"We haven't even entered the mountainous area yet, but the aura of heaven and earth here is more than ten times richer than that of Haizhou City?"

"If we step into the big snow plain, wouldn't the aura of heaven and earth in that place be...?"

Ye Wu remained calm, but his heart was full of surprise and he became excited at the same time.

Such a rich aura of heaven and earth was nothing two thousand years ago.

But in this era, that is very rare!

At the same time, Ye Wu also understood that his decision to find Lao Li Tou as his guide was a very good one.

As the name suggests, Daxueping should be located at the peak of the highest mountain in this mountainous area.

However, in fact, the highest peak of the Snowy Mountains stretches for hundreds of miles!

Just one highest peak is made up of more than 100 small peaks.

If you only rely on Ye Wu alone, one or two days will definitely not be enough to find Daxueping accurately.

Lao Litou can not only solve the problem of time, but also hide his identity from being discovered by the Black Witch Cult in advance.

The Black Witch Cult has been hidden in Nanjiao for hundreds of years and has been secretly raising blood centipedes. However, the locals have never heard of the Black Witch Cult.

This shows that the Black Witch Cult is very low-key and lives in harmony with the locals.

Even if locals and tourists enter Daxueping, under normal circumstances, I believe that the Black Witch Cult will not jump out when they see it.

This is naturally more convenient for Ye Wu to do things!

……

"Old Li Tou, are you kidding us?"

"This road is the farthest to the Snowy Mountains. Why not take the nearest and safest valley?"

The old housekeeper shouted angrily.

"Butler Wang, you don't know something. The road you mentioned is only ten miles away."

"That road starts to get dangerous at mile [-], and I have to be careful after mile [-]."

"And after fifty miles of that road, I will definitely die if I go there!"

"But the road in front of us becomes more and more dangerous in the first fifty miles. Although it is also dangerous after fifty miles, I am confident that I can take Miss Wan there."

Old Li Tou explained.

"In addition, this mountain road is not easy to walk, vehicles cannot pass, and ordinary horses cannot walk on it."

"Only these old horses who have been with me for many years and have been specially trained can barely walk in."

"Miss Wan, please get on the horse, and I will hold the horse for you."

Old Li Tou Mei walked up to Wan Ruxue with a smile on his face, and looked attentive.

Wan Ruxue nodded and got on the horse.

"Two people will help Xiao Zhang carry his bag. Xiao Zhang, you can lead the horse."

Seeing that Ye Wu was thin but carrying two heavy packages alone, Wan Ruxue couldn't bear it. After thinking about it, she suddenly spoke.

"Go two people!"

The old housekeeper casually ordered two bodyguards.

Two bodyguards hurried forward and each helped Ye Wu pick up a large package.

Seeing this scene, Lao Li was stunned and quickly scolded, "Xiao Zhang, why don't you thank Miss Wan quickly!"

Ye Wu quickly stepped forward, nodded and saluted, with a grateful look on his face.

"Old Li Tou, just lead the way. You are old after all. Be your guide and let Xiao Zhang lead the horse."

Wan Ruxue continued.

"Miss Wan, you are so kind-hearted. Good people are rewarded. You will definitely have good luck on your trip to Daxueping."

Lao Litou nodded quickly, very happy.

In fact, what everyone doesn't know is that the road to Daxueping is dangerous.

But the Li family has been walking this road for 100 years, and three generations of the Li family have visited the mountain more than a hundred times.

For Lao Li Tou, this road is not dangerous at all and is no different from going home.

You can earn millions just by going to the mountains once. This money is so profitable!

Moreover, this Miss Wan is so kind-hearted and seems to have a good temper. When the situation is dangerous, I can increase the money depending on the situation. I don’t have to worry about Miss Wan not giving it!

Although this group of people seems to be rich and powerful, this is Southern Xinjiang after all!

As long as he makes enough money this time, Lao Li Tou can retire.

……

A dozen bodyguards in black suits, surrounded by Wan Ruxue, officially stepped into the mountain.

along the way.

Ye Wu said nothing and held the horse silently, not even looking at Wan Ruxue.

This made Wan Ruxue, who was reading ancient books on horseback, couldn't help but nod slightly, with a smile flashing in his eyes.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, Ye Wu is just a simple and honest country bumpkin and a loser.

In fact, Wan Ruxue thinks so too.

However, Wan Ruxue was brought up by Wan Lao. Wan Lao taught her by words and deeds, and often taught Wan Ruxue not to judge people by their appearance, let alone look down on small people.

The more useless someone is like Ye Wu, the more likely you are to win their loyalty as long as you treat him well.

Among the entire expedition team, Old Li Tou seemed smart, but he was a little too smart, which gave Wan Ruxue an uncomfortable feeling.

Wan Ruxue would rather trust Ye Wu, but also be wary of Lao Litou.

……

A large group of people followed Old Li Tou and began to cross the mountains.

It has to be said that the Li family is indeed a century-old guide family. Although the fee is expensive, it is expensive for a reason.

When the sun rises completely, the sunlight shines on the endless snow-covered plateau.

A towering snow-capped mountain in the distance has appeared in front of everyone.

This scene made everyone excited.

"Miss Wan, the so-called dead horse in Wangshan Mountain, don't think that the Snow Mountain is very close."

"We must speed up our pace and not stop for a moment. Otherwise, if we cannot reach the foot of the Snow Mountain before dark, once the black dragon comes, none of us will be able to escape, and we will all die!"

Old Li Tou said with a serious face.

It turned out that Lao Li Tou had not walked on this road for nearly three years.

Three years may not seem like a short period of time, but in fact, these three years are nothing at all to the snowy areas of Southern Xinjiang that will not change for ten thousand years.

However, three years later, Lao Li Tou was surprised to find that there seemed to be no change along the way, but in fact there were huge changes.

The temperature in this snowy area has actually dropped by a full 5° compared to three years ago!

From minus 35° to minus 30°, Wan Ruxue and the others naturally felt nothing.

But Old Man Li felt vaguely uneasy.

Because he discovered that the snow in this snowy area, which had never melted for thousands of years, seemed no longer as thick as it had been three years ago.

Naturally, this cannot be measured, but experience tells Lao Litou that this is a fact!

In the past three years, there must have been amazing changes in the snowy area!

Old Li Tou didn't think this was a good thing, he was full of worries.

It's just that Old Li Tou is very smart. He knows that there must be a reason for Wan Ruxue to come to Daxueping.

Although he didn't know what the reason was, Old Li Tou knew that if he asked Wan Ruxue to turn around and go back now, Wan Ruxue would definitely not agree.

Moreover, this order only takes two or three days, but it can make a lot of money that Lao Li could not make in his first three lifetimes.

Choosing to give up just because of the imaginary anxiety in my heart is not in line with Lao Li Tou's principles.

The group moved on.

As for the black dragon mentioned by Lao Litou, neither Wan Ruxue nor the old housekeeper took it to heart.

However, a bodyguard couldn't help but asked, "Uncle Wang, what is a black dragon?"

All the bodyguards looked over, their eyes full of curiosity.

Wan Ruxue may seem aloof, but in fact, she never hits or scolds these bodyguards. Not only does she pay them a high salary, but she also often greets them.

As time went by, these bodyguards became grateful to Wan Ruxue, but at the same time they became less restrained.

Otherwise, the bodyguard would not dare to ask questions.

"It is said that Southern Xinjiang was the place where the gods exiled their prisoners in ancient times. Many villains who disrespected the gods were imprisoned in this place."

"Most of these villains are great demons who have become spirits through cultivation, and among them is a black dragon."

"According to archaeological findings, the ancestors of this snowy land have been worshiping the Black Dragon God for generations, offering sacrifices and praying that the Black Dragon would not cause trouble."

"These ancient people attributed various disasters in the snowy areas to the black dragon's rage."

Facing everyone's curious eyes, the old housekeeper explained.

"Speaking of which, Brother Xiao Zhang is a local, and he should know the black dragon best."

"It's a pity that he is mute and cannot talk to us in detail."

The old butler smiled.

The bodyguards suddenly lost interest when they looked at Ye Wu, who was simple and dull, a little silly, dressed in a country bumpkin's attire, and just leading the horse.

"Butler Wang seems to be hostile to me?"

Although Ye Wu didn't look back, he felt strong hostility from the old housekeeper.

Ye Wu suddenly felt speechless.

Could it be that the old man was jealous because of Wan Ruxue's care for him?

baffling!

Ye Wu didn't take this matter to heart, and the group continued to move forward.

As for the legend of the black dragon, everyone smiled after hearing it, and no one took it to heart at all.

We walked like this for several more hours.

Although this place is a snowy area, there is snow everywhere.

However, the scorching sun in the afternoon still made my mouth dry and made me feel extremely hot.

Even though Lao Litou prepared a lot of drinking water, everyone was still exhausted from walking and felt like they could no longer hold on.

boom!

Suddenly, a bodyguard fell straight to the ground.

"Miss, Xiao Liu passed out from heat stroke because he was too tired, carried heavy weights for ten hours on foot, and was too hot."

"I suggest taking a short break."

The old housekeeper was proficient in Chinese medicine. After he walked over and felt his pulse, he said quickly.

While speaking, the old housekeeper glanced at Ye Wu vaguely, with a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes.

Ye Wu suddenly felt embarrassed.

Apparently, the bodyguard was overwhelmed because he had been carrying Ye Wu's bags for too long, and that's when Uncle Zhong fell to the ground and passed out.

Ye Wu stepped forward to help carry the bag.

Wan Ruxue suddenly said, "Let each brother take turns with those two bags. Each person can carry each bag for an hour."

"Thank you, Miss!" Another bodyguard, who was responsible for carrying the bag and could no longer hold on, saluted Wan Ruxue with a grateful look on his face.

"Also, rest where you are for an hour and then continue on your way."

Wan Ruxue continued.

Upon hearing this, all the bodyguards looked at Wan Ruxue and couldn't help but be moved.

Old Li Tou frowned, trying to persuade Wan Ruxue not to stay.

But seeing Wan Ruxue not looking at him, sitting on the horse reading a book with his head lowered, Old Li Tou could only remain silent.

Old Li Tou is not stupid. He can't tell that these people don't believe in the legend of the black dragon.

In fact, Lao Litou himself didn't believe it.

Because this legend was passed down from the generation of old Grandpa Li Tou.

According to Lao Li Tou's father, his grandfather had seen a black dragon and an immortal, so he was lucky enough to survive.

But when his father said these words, there was obvious disbelief in his eyes, and he only told them as stories.

Naturally, Old Li Tou didn't believe it either.

Moreover, Lao Li Tou calculated that even if he rested for an hour, it would not be difficult to reach the Snow Mountain before dark.

A group of people began to rest.

Yet at this time.

Whoops!

Along with a strong gust of wind, the whole world turned dark in an instant.

The ground beneath everyone's feet began to tremble violently, as if something was coming out of the ground.

Old Li Tou's expression changed drastically in an instant, "No, it's a black dragon!"
