"Should I meet him or not?" Guo Zhenghe asked.
"It's better not to meet him," Xu Xinyuan said. "It's dangerous to meet him," Wang Yao said.
"He came all the way here. It's not appropriate to not meet him. Why don't we meet him from afar?" Guo Zhenghe asked with a smile.
"What do you mean?"
"We'll see." Guo Zhenghe waved his hand with a smile.
That day, the sun was bright and the sky was high.
A guest came to the mountain village. He looked to be in his 40s. His complexion was pale gold. He was wearing old clothes and strolling on the village road.
Ring! Ring! The sound of a bell came from behind him. He moved aside.
A man in his twenties rode a bicycle and stopped beside him, sizing him up.
"Are you a foreigner?"
"Yes."
"Where are you from?"
"South."
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to see," the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Ah, okay, let's see." The young man smiled and rode away.
"Interesting." The middle-aged man stared at the man's back.
He was full of vitality and had a reserved spirit. There was such a person in this small mountain village, and he was so young.
"I met a strange man in the village," Jia Zizai said to his wife as he pedaled his bicycle back home.
"Strange man? What kind of strange man?"
"I don't know. I just felt strange. He came from the south. I asked him what he was doing in the village. He said he was here to have a look."
"This is not your village, and it's not a forbidden area. You don't allow outsiders to come in," Hu Mei said with a smile.
"I didn't mean that. Anyway, he was a bit strange. I'll go out and have a look later."
At this time, the middle-aged man changed his route halfway through the village. He went up Xishan Hill and went all the way up the mountain road.
"Huh?" When he passed by a dead area, he stopped and squatted down to look at the soil sprinkled with lime.
"There are poisonous insects in here?" He was surprised.
This kind of thing was extremely rare in the north because the environment in the north was different from the south. It was not suitable for poisonous insects to grow.
"What a pity!" He got up and sighed. If this was near the village, he would find a way to dig to see what kind of poisonous insects were below. Because he knew that this amount of lime was not enough to kill the Gu worms below.
After walking for a short while, he found another "land of death".
"There's more?" He bent down to take a closer look.
"These two places should be connected by a tunnel below." He stood up and looked around.
"This is really strange. No matter how I look at it, it doesn't seem like an environment that can produce Gu worms!"
He went to the top of Xishan Mountain and looked down at the village below. After looking around, his eyes fell on the building with white walls and black tiles in the southernmost part of the village.
"That should be the place they were talking about. The small courtyard is quite unique." He was not in a hurry to go down. He continued to look around. When he saw a patch of green on the other side of Nanshan Hill, he was extremely surprised.
"How is this possible? How can there be such a place here?"
A moment later, he came back to his senses. Then, he took a step forward and hurried over.
As he approached Nanshan Hill, he stopped in his tracks.
"What a strong Qi!" Looking at the lush Nanshan Hill, he exclaimed.
"This area is just a few small hills. How can it gather such strong Qi?"
He was not in a hurry to go forward because there was a stone blocking him.
"Stone Array."
Looking at this, he remembered that during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Wu's stone array had almost trapped Lu Xun and his tens of thousands of troops.
"Qimen Dunjia. I didn't expect to see such a thing here. I'm getting more and more curious. Who is inside?"
He did not choose to barge in. Instead, he went around.
Outside Nanshan Hill, although Wang Yao had set up many obstacles, it was not a seamless defense. As long as he was careful, he could still go further. Therefore, he went further and went inside. He vaguely saw the medicine field.
"Medicine field?"
Seeing what was inside, his eyes immediately shone.
He wanted to go further, but suddenly saw the swaying trees. He felt a little dizzy.
"Poison?"
He immediately realized the problem. He hurriedly took a few steps back and held his breath. Then, he took out a pill that he carried with him. After taking it, the discomfort in his body only slightly subsided, but it did not completely disappear.
"What a powerful poison. I just don't know what kind of herb can emit such poisonous gas."
"Is anyone there?" He shouted inside, but no one responded.
Woof!
Just as he was trying to go further and force his way through the maze, a big dog suddenly appeared in front of him.
"This is the sign of atavism!" Looking at the dog, he was shocked.
Today, in this small mountain village, on these two hills, there were too many things that surprised him. In the past 10 years, he had not been as excited and happy as he was today.
"This is inside. I must go in and have a look."
A dog that had atavism was not a threat to him.
The man and the dog fought back and forth in the mountain. The dog was at a disadvantage.
At the foot of the mountain, Wang Yao was still in the clinic.
Hmm?
He heard the dog barking from the mountain. It was very impatient.
"Something happened on the mountain!"
"Wait a moment," Wang Yao said to the patient who was seeing him.
He went out of the clinic.
"Liuchuan, come and take care of the clinic." He shouted to the west. His voice clearly traveled dozens of feet and reached the ears of Zhong Liuchuan, who was reading at home.
After hearing the voice, Zhong Liuchuan immediately went out of the yard.
"Got it, Sir," he replied in the direction of the clinic.
Hearing the reply, Wang Yao took a step dozens of feet away. In an instant, he arrived at the foot of Nanshan Hill and went up.
The dog fell outside the herbal field, gasping and bleeding.
The illusion array on the side had been forcibly broken open. A man stood inside.
"Wait a minute, San Xian."
He took out a prolongation pill and stuffed it into the dog's mouth. He knew the dog's life was not in danger.
He stepped into the herbal field.
Hearing his footsteps, the man who had broken into the herbal field pointed to a low plant with blooming flowers and asked, "What is this?"
"Zi Yu."
"Zi Yu, what is the effect of the medicine?"
"It opens the meridians."
"Well, is it a licorice root?"
"Yes."
Wang Yao looked at the pale golden-faced man standing in front of him and thought of his identity, Miaoxi River?
"Yes, I think you must be Wang Yao," Miaoxi said.
"That's me," Wang Yao said, suppressing the anger in his heart. "I don't know why you came all the way here. What can I do for you?"
It was the first time in so many days that someone had broken into Nanshan Hill. He had successfully entered the herbal field and injured the dog.
"I've heard about you for a long time," Miaoxi River said. "I wanted to come and see you. You are really extraordinary. Your hill has given me too many surprises."
"I should have come earlier."
"It's not too late now," Wang Yao said with a smile.
Miaoxi River stared at Wang Yao and suddenly said, "You are full of spirit and Leakless Immortal."
"You flatter me," Wang Yao said with a smile.
