It didn't take much effort before many villagers rushed to hear the news:

"What's going on? What's going on?"

"My baby said that there was a person who looked like a ghost!"

"What? Someone who looks like a ghost? How ugly is that?"

"It doesn't matter if he's a human or a ghost, there are so many of us, why are we still afraid of him?"

"Yes, we must examine it well, and if it is a bad element, we will send him to the police station!"

The mountain people are generally very strong, especially in their realm, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu have to walk with their heads down, otherwise they will be asking for hardship. Even if you are taught a lesson by the mountain people, there is no place to reason.

Watson was driving away the dogs when he saw a large group of villagers rushing towards him with farm tools. The crowd quickly surrounded him, and Watson turned pale with fright.

From the other party's actions, it can be seen that they are definitely not welcoming themselves, but teaching themselves a lesson. Watson secretly frightened and said, "I didn't do anything bad, why did they treat me like this?" Was it because I accidentally scared those two children into tears?

The villagers originally rushed in a fierce manner, with a posture of fighting the bad elements to the end, but when they saw Watson's appearance clearly, everyone at the scene was stunned.

After a while, an aunt with a broom in her hand whispered, "Seventh Master, shouldn't he be Lao Maozi?"

"Looks a bit like ......"

"Didn't we have a falling out with Lao Maozi a long time ago? Why is there an old Maozi running to us now?"

"Who knows?"

Westerners are basically the same in the eyes of Chinese, and it is no wonder that these people are mistaken.

As the village chief of Niudeng Bay Village, the Seventh Master naturally couldn't retreat at this time, he stepped forward and asked in a thick voice, "Hey, what are you doing here?"

Watson couldn't understand Chinese with a thick local accent at all, but from the other party's expression, he could roughly guess what the other party was asking, in order to clear up the misunderstanding as soon as possible, Watson immediately used the old method, and clearly said the name of Aoshan.

Many villagers immediately understood what he meant, and the seventh master, who was the head of the village, was no exception, and he sighed: "It turned out that you were going to Aoshan Town, then you went the wrong way, Aoshan Town is in that direction." ”

The Seventh Master stretched out his finger and pointed to the southwest as he spoke, and at the same time secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. After all, the other party is a foreigner, and he doesn't dare to mess around, otherwise it may cause a very serious foreign-related incident. As a grassroots official, the Seventh Master still knows these rules.

Watson saw that the Seven Masters' expressions were relaxed, and he also pointed out a direction, and immediately understood what the Seven Masters meant. He let out a sigh of relief, nodded his head in thanks, and then pointed to the dozen or so earth dogs surrounding him, meaning that please help me drive these dogs away.

Before the seventh master could speak, some villagers stepped forward to drive him away. It didn't take much effort for the dogs to be driven away by the dirt dogs grinning at Watson. Watson nodded his head again in thanks, and then, under the collective gaze of the villagers, he walked in the direction indicated by the Seven Masters.

It wasn't until his back disappeared that a young villager spoke: "Seventh Grandpa, have we forgotten something?"

The Seventh Master was slightly stunned: "What did you forget?"

"I forgot to check the letter of introduction, if he went to Ayama on business, he would definitely have brought the letter of introduction, if he didn't have a letter of introduction, it would be very suspicious. ”

In this era, if you want to go far away, you must have a letter of introduction, otherwise the train station will not sell you tickets, and you will not be able to stay in a hostel if you go to another place. The letter of introduction is equivalent to the ancient road guide, without which it is absolutely difficult to move an inch, and it is easy to be arrested as a suspicious person.

The seventh master patted his head: "I forgot, but everyone has already left, let's catch up and ask to see the letter of introduction, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, in my opinion, forget it, anyway, Aoshan Town will also check it, not bad for our level." ”

The Seventh Master is mainly afraid of trouble, and at the same time, he is also a little concerned. He is naturally majestic in front of the villagers, but he is a little weak in the face of foreign guests. This mentality is very much in line with the general attitude of Chinese people towards foreigners.

Since the village chief has said so, naturally there will be no uninteresting people who stick to their principles. The big guy chatted about today's adventure, and dispersed with the guy.

Watson walked less than five miles in the direction indicated by the Seventh Master before he found that there was no way forward. The direction pointed out by the Seven Masters was absolutely correct, and he did not deceive Watson. But Watson's departure place is the village of Cowshed Bay, not the main road to the county seat.

When he came to the end, he saw a piece of land reclaimed in the mountains, and he felt that the path that the villagers of Niudeng Bay had just walked to their fields led to their fields, not the main road leading to Aoshan Town.

Watson wanted to go back and ask clearly, but when he thought of what had just happened, he immediately dismissed this thought.

The experience of these days made him faintly feel that the Chinese seem to be very wary of foreigners, what if he turns back and is misunderstood by those villagers? Even if people do not misunderstand, but the language of the two sides is different, he can't ask clearly.

"Damn, I wouldn't have sneaked out if I had known I, if there was Translator Li, things wouldn't have been so troublesome. ”

It's come to this, and it's too late to regret it. Watson chose to believe the Seven Masters, he felt that the Chinese were still very honest and could not deceive themselves. Although there is no road ahead, as long as you unswervingly continue in this direction, you will definitely reach your destination.

After making up his mind, Watson took a step over the mountains. Anyone who has walked through the mountain road knows that the mountains are densely wooded, and if there is no road, the view will be obscured and it is easy to deviate from the direction.

After more than two hours of walking through the woods, Watson finally realized that he was lost.

Even so, Watson wasn't too flustered. He climbed onto a large tree, looked around, and continued in the direction of the hill. After repeating this several times, Watson finally reached the top of a mountain.

Standing on a high place and looking at this, Watson couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Looking into the distance, he didn't see anyone in the distance, only the towering mountains. By now, he had completely lost his way, and he didn't know which side was Aoshan Town.

"God, show me the way!"

God may have gone on vacation and not heard Watson's plea. Watson sighed and sat down on a large rock in some frustration. After all, he is a university professor, and his psychological quality is still very strong. It didn't take long for Watson to recall the details of the journey, trying to find some clues to get out of the trap.
