Ma Dong was in a good mood now, he pulled Song Kai to the hall and made Yulu tea for Song Kai, and when he heard Song Kai ask, he laughed, " Of course I know, Lao Chen and I are still elementary school classmates, Lao Chen is a good person, is stubborn, he recognized to make tea, to make tea, as a result, many of the tea sold by others are shoddy, only him, before the rain is before the rain, the top of the mountain is only picked from the top of the mountain, as a result, other people have made a fortune, only him, business is getting worse and worse, can only get a wooden shed as a storefront. ”

Song Kai listened to it and sighed a little emotionally, saying, "There are really not many such people now. Tea is a thing, even if people who drink tea every day, they may not be able to distinguish whether it is before the rain or after the rain, whether it is the top of the mountain or the slope, whether it is shaded or sunny, so it can only rely on the conscience of the tea seller. ”

"yes. As soon as Ma Dong heard Song Kai say this, he was even more happy, and pulled Song Kai to talk about many truths in life.

Song Kai didn't want to hear this, he interrupted Ma Dong's words and said, "Uncle Ma, I want to ask Boss Chen about something, why don't you take me there once?"

"Okay!" Ma Dong took Song Kai to the north of the town, and to the north of the town, there was only one wooden shed that sold tea, and the other tea shops were all well decorated.

Ma Dong walked over and shouted, "Lao Chen, Lao Chen, is he in the store?"

The doors are closed.

Ma Dong walked over and shook it, and then said: "It seems that Lao Chen has returned to his hometown, it's okay, he will come back early tomorrow morning, Song Kai, you can stay at my house for one night now, and come back tomorrow." ”

"That'...... All right. Song Kai could only agree, he could only hope from the bottom of his heart that there would be no accidents.

Song Kai followed Ma Dong back to their house, and at this time the meals were almost ready, and wisps of aroma wafted from the kitchen.

Ma Xuemei was very happy, she was even happier when she knew that Song Kai was going to live in her own home.

During the meal, Ma Xuemei and Song Kai chatted happily.

After eating, Ma Xuemei took Song Kai to the nearby mountains for a walk, which is located between the mountains, the scenery is indeed very beautiful, and there are many traditional customs unique to the Tujia family, which opened Song Kai's eyes.

And this place is also a place where Wu Chu culture is more prevalent, witchcraft ghosts and gods are quite popular here, and Song Kai is still very interested in this part.

Ma Xuemei kept chatting with Song Kai, and it was not until it was time to go to bed that Ma Xuemei reluctantly went back to her room to sleep.

Song Kai didn't take it seriously, although Ma Xuemei is indeed a cute and cheerful beauty, but now Song Kai's mind is full of the best yellow essence, which is the thing that determines his future fate.

Early the next morning, Song Kai couldn't wait to get up, and pulled Ma Dong to find the old Chen who sold tea.

Lao Chen was really there, and he also picked a basket of tea leaves with dew.

"Lao Chen!" Ma Dong greeted him very familiarly after entering.

Lao Chen looked up and was stunned when he saw Ma Dong, and then he laughed and said, "Old Ma, you can walk on the ground!" ”

Ma Dong smiled proudly and said, "It's thanks to the help of young man Song Kai, he is my daughter's classmate, and he just wants to ask you something." Obviously, Ma Dong was very satisfied with Song Kai, and began to eagerly introduce Song Kai to his friends.

Lao Chen looked at Song Kai, nodded, and said, "What do you want to ask me? Buy tea? ”

Song Kai hurriedly said: "Uncle Chen, don't be in a hurry to buy tea first, I'll buy it when I leave, I want to ask Uncle Chen something about you, about three or four months ago, you sold a bag of tea to a foreigner, the price of 3,000 yuan per catty, do you remember?"

Lao Chen laughed and said, "Of course I remember, I sold such expensive tea once." But think about it, I still sold at a loss, no matter how much money the tea sells for a catty, it's worth it. ”

Song Kai said: "That's, Uncle Chen, that tea is absolutely good tea, I just want to ask Uncle Chen, where did you collect it?" After speaking, Song Kai looked at Lao Chen expectantly, for fear that the old man would say that he had forgotten.

Lao Chen looked at Song Kai and said, "What, you also want to go to pick?" Young man, you can't go to that place, in the old cliff mouth, tsk, it's dangerous." ”

"Ah, Lao Chen, you don't want to die, run to the mouth of the old cliff to pick tea?!" Ma Dong listened to it and muttered, and then he looked at Song Kai and said, "Xiaofei, don't go there, it's too steep, and I don't know how many climbers fall to their deaths there every year." ”

Song Kai hurriedly said: "It's okay, Uncle Chen, Uncle Ma, I beg you one thing, tell me where that place is, and tell me how to go up." Don't worry, I went there for a very important matter, not to pick tea, and besides, I have to go, so I ask the two uncles to show me a better way. ”

Ma Dong saw that Song Kai was so resolute, although it was very strange, but he didn't ask much.

Lao Chen laughed and said, "Okay, I'll show you a path, if you climb carefully, you won't fall." ”

Next, Lao Chen told Song Kai in detail about the path to Lao Yakou.

For the sake of insurance, Song Kai also drew a special topographic map, and repeatedly determined the route with Lao Chen.

After getting these things done, Song Kai breathed a sigh of relief, he held Lao Chen's hand and said, "Uncle Chen, if I wait for my business to be done, I will definitely sponsor a tea shop for you in the future, a splendid tea shop, you wait!"

When Lao Chen heard this, he was happy and laughed.

Ma Dong also laughed.

Song Kai and Ma Dong returned home, and after breakfast, Song Kai carried his schoolbag and a long bundle of ropes, and ran towards the old cliff.

......

Song Kai had already run towards the old cliff mouth, he didn't care about anything now, as long as he could dig up the best yellow essence, he would be able to do anything much more smoothly in the future.

The road at the old cliff mouth is not easy to walk, it is all mountain roads, and in this season, in this place of Enshi, there are many spotted snakes, in case they are bitten, it is very dangerous.

Song Kai walked for more than four hours, and finally arrived at the bottom of the old cliff mouth, and then he only needed to climb up along a path.

"Huh, footprints?"

Song Kai looked down, there were a lot of messy footprints on this trail, and the number and shape of the footprints showed that just now, at least a dozen people walked up, and the shoes they wore were all professional non-slip hiking shoes, not cheap shoes worn by ordinary mountain people.

"What's the matter? Someone grabbed me ahead of me and went up the mountain, what are these people going to do?" Song Kai frowned, thought for a while, and didn't figure it out. Song Kai decided to go up the mountain as soon as possible, and he had to be extra careful, at least not to let the other party find himself first.

His steps were messy and he disappeared into the weeds in front of him.

It seems that the other party doesn't know the path that Lao Chen told him.

Song Kai walked up quickly, about half an hour later, Song Kaifu lowered his body, and he saw dozens of meters away, there were more than a dozen people wearing camouflage uniforms, with ropes tied around their waists and a pickaxe in their hands, climbing above the old cliff mouth.

Because they are walking the wrong way, it is a very steep mountain road, so these people are quite slow.

It doesn't look like an ordinary mountaineering enthusiast.

Song Kai immediately lowered his body and approached those people, he planned to observe what these people were doing.

"Hey, buddy, do you have any extra paper?" a voice suddenly sounded not far from Song Kai.

Song Kai was startled, and hurriedly looked at the voice, which came from behind the big tree.

No wonder I hadn't seen this guy before, apparently he was squatting in the grass behind a tree and.

"Hey, buddy!" a burly man stuck his head out from behind the big tree and looked at Song Kai, "Do you have a paper...... Huh, you're not from the Dragon Hunts?"

Song Kai quickly looked at this man, his face was dark, he obviously often exploded in the sun, his face was muscular, and people who could train all the muscles on his face were definitely not easy to mess with.

This guy is wearing a camouflage uniform, which shows that he is in the same group as those who are far away from the mountain. Moreover, what did he say about the dragon hunting team, damn it, what dragon hunting team?

Song Kai pretended to be familiar with it and said, "Here, I brought a lot of paper here, the captain knows that you definitely didn't bring paper, so let me send it over." ”

As he spoke, Song Kai walked towards Dahan.

With a puzzled expression on his face, Dahan spoke, "Looking for dragons is moving in the sky. ”

Song Kai laughed, he still walked very indifferently, and said: "Give you the paper ...... first" When the words fell, Song Kai suddenly rushed over, he pulled out the dagger from his boots, and with a snort, the dagger stabbed at the neck of the big man.

But it only punctured a layer of skin.

The big man was so frightened that he sat down on the ground and sat directly in the shit.

Song Kai knew that the sentence that the big man suddenly came out of just now was an incision, and it was the code word of their dragon hunting team.

Therefore, Song Kai knew that he couldn't answer, so of course he had to strike first.

"If you dare to speak out, I will kill you immediately!" Song Kai said coldly.

The big man didn't dare to move, in fact, he was bleeding from his neck now, and he could feel the threat of death.

"What are you doing here!" Song Kai asked coldly.

"Find ...... Find the dragon. Dahan said.

"Let's be clear, what a dragon! What a bullshit dragon!" Song Kai was a little impatient, and the dagger in his hand exerted some strength.

Dahan immediately panicked, and hurriedly said: "Really, it's true, we got the news, there is a dragon infested here, and our dragon hunting team came over immediately, although that thing is not a real dragon, but it must be a very powerful divine beast." ”

Song Kai narrowed his eyes, and then he slammed his palm on the big man's neck.

The big man rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

"Is there a dragon infested?" Song Kai put the dagger up, he already knew, it seemed that the other party and his own purpose was the same, they were both here for the best yellow essence.

The difference is that according to the taste of tea, I judged that there was a superb yellow essence hidden in the ground, and there must be demon beasts guarding the best yellow essence.

But the other party, this dragon-seeking team, was the first to get the demon beasts infested here, and where the demon beasts are entrenched, there must be the best fairy grass.

Therefore, although the information you get from the other party is different, the purpose is the same.

Song Kai thought of this, he quickly looked down and checked the things on the big man's body, in addition to the mountaineering pickaxe and rope, the big man also carried a grenade and a pistol.

"Damn, the other party is very difficult to mess with!" Song Kai was a little anxious, he took off the grenade and pistol of the big man and loaded it on himself, and then Song Kai lowered his body and ran quickly along the path that Lao Chen told him.
