Having experienced the mystery of Yuluo listening to everything, Ji Yuan is now very confident in his hearing. Although he was not distracted just now, at such a close distance, the sound of a person's footsteps will never be missed.

Recalling what Jin Shunfu said just now, Ji Yuan couldn't help but feel chills in his heart.

On a cold night in the barren mountains, a scholar of unknown origin suddenly appeared, which is not normal no matter how you think about it.

But this scholar's demeanor and movements are all in place, coupled with his identity as a scholar and his powerless appearance, it seems that he has initially succeeded in gaining the trust of the traveling merchants.

To be honest, this mountain temple is not the private property of the traveling merchants. Everyone has the right to come in and rest. After all, they are not vicious and unreasonable people, so even if they are wary of scholars, it is impossible to drive them away.

Of course, the traveling merchants were not completely unguarded. Although they politely greeted the scholar to sit down, they still wanted to ask about the scholar's situation.

"May I ask what your surname is, where you live, and where did you study?"

Zhang Shilin had read some books anyway, and when he asked the scholar, this sentence seemed more literary, and the youngest Wang Dong couldn't help but look at him several times.

The scholar didn't dare to be negligent when he heard it, and bowed to Zhang Shilin.

"Xiaosheng's surname is Lu, and his single name is Xing. He lives in Paimenfang, Narcissus Town. He is a student of Qingsong Academy in Desheng Prefecture. This time, he went to the mountain with his friends from the academy to study and return home..."

Probably because of Zhang Shilin's way of asking, the scholar regarded him as a half-scholar, and claimed to have changed from "I" to "Xiaosheng".

The scholar is both memories and fears. He tells about who went up the mountain with his friends, why he accidentally got separated in the mountains, where he lives, and which college he studied in. He will spit out a sentence of literary poetry from time to time in the middle of the journey, and the words are all in order. Clearly, it is definitely not like talking nonsense.

The scholar's performance is not pretentious, and his words are polite and decent.

Especially when they heard that the scholar was a student of the orthodox academy, it made all the peddlers respect. Compared with the scholars who studied hard at home alone, the students of the academy were much better in terms of status, family background, and talent.

Scholars have always been admired, let alone students of Qingsong Academy.

Slowly, even Zhang Shilin let go of his guard. Not only that, everyone also respected Lu Shusheng.

And the scholar is not arrogant, he will thank you repeatedly for receiving water and food, but he will not eat for the time being because he is not hungry.

Ji Yuan's heart has sunk to the bottom, this so-called scholar is too good at acting, if Ji Yuan hadn't already determined in his heart that this guy is definitely not human, he would have believed him long ago.

This is terrible, terrible!

If there is an option for Ji Yuan to choose whether to keep traveling or go home immediately, he will choose the latter without hesitation, but unfortunately he has no choice now.

Now Ji Yuan is still a little lucky, because this scholar needs to act like this, which means that this thing should not be the master who can kill the world, and the other party seems to have not noticed that there is a beggar lying behind the statue of the mountain god.

Lu Shusheng and the traveling merchants were already chatting and laughing. It was rare for a student from a large academy to have no prejudice against these merchants, so the chat was naturally harmonious.

As if he suddenly thought of something, the scholar slapped his head and said mysteriously to Zhang Shilin and others.

"That's right! Xiaosheng doesn't have a lot of money with him, so he can't repay you for your help, but Xiaosheng saw a good thing on the way to the mountain temple, which must bring you some benefits!"

Sure enough, it immediately aroused everyone's interest.

"I don't know what good stuff it is?"

The scholar lowered his voice and said.

"Shanwang ginseng with a full year!"

Ginseng is a precious medicinal material, and adding the word "Shan Wang" before the word "ginseng" often refers to the best ginseng.

As a traveling merchant who travels through mountains and rivers all year round, if he encounters suitable medicinal materials, he will dig them out carefully and take them away, which will bring considerable benefits.

When everyone heard about Shanwang Ginseng, their expressions became a little excited.

Zhang Shilin frowned and looked at Lu Shusheng.

"Mr. Lu, you are a scholar, and you also know the appearance of the mountain king ginseng?"

"Hahaha, what Zhang Xiongtai said is true. Although I have indeed read the characteristics of ginseng in the miscellaneous book "Essence of Plants and Trees", I can't identify the mountain king ginseng at a glance, but I can't do it, others can!"

When Lu Shusheng said this, he looked around carefully, and then lowered his voice.

"I'm from Narcissus Town, and I know that occasionally a group of mountain hunters will come to the town to go to the market to sell mountain products and medicinal materials. I have chatted with them a few times and know some inside stories."

"The mountain king ginseng has nine leaf palms and tall red seed flowers, the most important thing..."

Speaking of this, all the traveling merchants, including Zhang Shilin, couldn't help but get their heads together.

"The most important thing is that there are three small red strings tied on the ginseng stalk. This is the local method led by the clever driver of the mountain to prevent the ginseng from escaping!"

This statement surprised many traveling traders and made them very excited.

"Yes, I heard from the old man that the old ginseng will escape through the soil, and only the most powerful mountain hunters can catch them!"

Jin Shunbok also narrated what he had heard before.

"Extremely extreme! What Jin Xiongtai said is true!"

Lu Shusheng clapped his palms and nodded in agreement.

"The man who drove the mountain tied the red rope and did not dig it away. He must have waited for the mountain king ginseng to reach the best temperature, but you don't need to do this. If you can get this mountain king ginseng, it must be a lot of money. If it wasn't for the fear in my heart Very heavy is also afraid of digging up the medicinal material, maybe it has already been dug away."

"Yep!"

"Brother Shilin, let's dig!"

"Scholar, where is the mountain king ginseng?"

...

The traveling merchants were so excited that they could not wait to dig up the mountain king ginseng immediately.

Money touches people's hearts, and the drive of profit makes them trust Lu Shusheng's words even more.

The chill in Ji Yuan's heart was getting deeper and deeper, and he had only one thought—too bad!

Facing the eagerness of the traveling merchants, the scholar thought for a while before answering.

"That place is not far from where Xiaosheng used to hide from the rain. It doesn't take two sticks of incense to go back and forth. If you really want to, you'd better go with me before dawn."

"Why is this? It's dark and the road is slippery at this moment, isn't it too unsafe?"

Zhang Shilin asked suspiciously.

"Brother Zhang doesn't know something. The mountain hunters all enter the mountain before dawn. I see that the mountain king ginseng red flowers are already standing. If the mountain hunters come to dig the ginseng in one or two days, why don't we go tonight? missed?"

"yes!"

"It makes sense!"

"Brother Shihlin, I have good limbs, let me go!"

"Yeah, let's go dig!"

These days, raising a family is the most important thing, and the mountain king is naturally raised. It is not that the mountain hunters tied the red rope and said that it must be theirs. As long as they don't hit it, it will be fine.

"You don't have to go all of them, just go to a few with flexible hands and feet, and the rest are here to watch things."

Zhang Shilin didn't hesitate any longer, and began to find torches and tarpaulins from the basket.

"Lao Jin, Xiao Dong, Liu Quan, and Li Gui, the four of you are going with Mr. Lu. The road in the mountains is slippery. Be careful on the road to ensure Mr. Lu's safety!"

"I will handle it!"

"Don't worry Brother Shilin, I won't let Mr. Lu fall!"

"There is work, there is work!"

Lu Shusheng bowed to thank him, and on the side of the fire where no one was paying attention, his smile opened a pale and strange arc...

Ji Yuan only felt a chill rushing to his scalp, and roared in his heart.

'do not go! Don't go with him! '
