Seeing Wei Xiaotong and Tian Hao following behind, Gao Peng frowned and whispered to Jiang Yuan:

"It's a burden to carry them both, but if we get rid of them, I'm afraid they won't be able to get out."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "If they are willing to follow, just follow."

"If we let the two of them break into this deep mountain and old forest on their own, I'm afraid the consequences will be unpredictable."

Two hours later.

Wei Xiaotong and Tian Hao obviously couldn't keep up with Jiang Yuan's speed.

Realizing that the two of them were falling behind, Gao Peng subconsciously wanted to go back and look for them.

He is a kind person, but he still can't sit idly by.

Jiang Yuan didn't say much and turned back with Gao Peng.

A few minutes later, Jiang Yuan and the two found Wei Xiaotong and Tian Hao.

It turned out that the two men were so hungry that they saw a hare and chased it.

As a result, the hare failed to catch up, and the two of them lost the whereabouts of Jiang Yuan and the others.

Seeing Jiang Yuan and the two of them, Wei Xiaotong apologized with some shame:

"Sorry for causing trouble to you."

Tian Hao was also so hungry that he couldn't bear it anymore. He frowned and looked at Gao Peng and said:

"How much money he gives you, I will pay double, and you will be our guide."

Gao Peng rolled his eyes at Tian Hao and said, "As for you, no matter how much money you give me, I won't take it with you. I don't want to be killed by you."

Although he said this, Gao Peng still took two cakes from his bag and handed them to Wei Xiaotong.

"I asked you to leave with Uncle Meng, but you didn't believe it, and now you regret it?"

Wei Xiaotong took the cake and said thank you.

"Thanks."

With that said, she divided one piece of cake to Tian Hao.

Tian Hao frowned and took a few bites, and couldn't help but said to Wei Xiaotong:

"Xiaotong, who are you looking for?"

Jiang Yuan also looked curious, "Girl, if you don't speak, we really won't care about you."

Wei Xiaotong was silent for a few seconds before speaking:

"When I was ten years old, my father told me that he would go to other places to work, and then there was no news from him."

"Half a month ago, my father sent a letter to my family, saying that he was working in Changbai Mountain and would be back in half a year, so we should not worry about it."

"I replied to the letter, but I never received a reply."

Jiang Yuan frowned, "So you have the courage to come to Changbai Mountain to find someone?"

"Do you know the address?"

Wei Xiaotong shook his head, "I don't know."

Jiang Yuan was suddenly speechless.

What is the difference between looking for someone in such a big Changbai Mountain and looking for a needle in a haystack?

Should I say it or not, this Wei Xiaotong is really brave.

Gao Peng looked at Jiang Yuan hesitantly.

"Brother Jiang, do you think this will work?"

"I don't know why you are going to that 'Peach Valley', but when you get there, I can wait for you with them at a distance and it will never affect your affairs."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Then keep walking."

As if knowing that Gao Peng ignored him, Tian Hao became more honest along the way.

No matter how much he disliked Jiang Yuan, he would not dare to have a conflict with Jiang Yuan at this time.

If he was left behind, he wouldn't

Make sure you can leave.

Gao Peng originally only brought supplies for two people, but now there were two more people. In just over a day, there was not much dry food and drinking water left.

Fortunately, he is a hunter and can still hunt pheasants, hares and the like.

But the result of this is that the speed of the journey is half as slow.

Spent another night.

Gao Peng and Jiang Yuan were both very tired.

In exchange, Gao Peng asked Tian Hao to keep watch overnight.

Tian Hao didn't want to agree, but when he thought that he still had to eat the food given by Gao Peng and had Gao Peng to protect him, he didn't dare to say anything.

Wei Xiaotong, on the other hand, was much more polite. He didn't hold back when he was on his way, and even helped collect firewood and light the fire, doing whatever he could.

She is also a smart person and knows that Jiang Yuan went all the way to Taozigou to find someone.

Anyway, she doesn’t know her father’s address now. Maybe it’s in Taozi Valley?

Two more days passed.

Jiang Yuan and others were exhausted.

Tian Hao was already dragging his legs when walking. He was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes and fell to the ground several times.

Wei Xiaotong's situation is not much better, but she is still gritting her teeth and persisting.

At this time, there were about ten miles left to Taozigou marked on the map.

In the evening, Gao Peng found a cave that could accommodate four people and lit a fire at the entrance of the cave.

Jiang Yuan pulled Gao Peng ten meters away and lowered his voice:

"There are only ten miles left, so I decided to go to Taozigou by myself."

Gao Peng frowned, "The ten-mile journey seems not far away, but it will take two or three hours to get there. It's night again, so I don't trust you."

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, "To be honest, the place I went to is a bit dangerous, and if you go there, things may happen more easily."

"Just wait here for me to come back, trust me."

Gao Peng still shook his head, "In our line of work, you get paid to do things, not to mention that you and I have very different tempers."

"Well, let them stay and I'll go with you."

Jiang Yuan shook his head, "I don't think that Tian Hao is a good person. He is a man and a woman alone, so it is not safe."

"You'd better stay here."

"Let's do this. I'll leave marks along the way. If I'm not back by tomorrow noon, you can follow the marks to find me."

Seeing Jiang Yuan's firm attitude, Gao Peng had no choice but to nod.

Along the way, he also saw that Jiang Yuan was not a helpless person.

However, he still reminded:

"You'd better find a place with water to wash, and then smear your body with mud, otherwise the smell of sweat on your body will attract wild beasts."

With that said, he handed the last few cakes he had to Jiang Yuan, "I won't ask you why you are going, but remember to come back as soon as possible."

"If you don't come back before noon tomorrow, I will go find you."

"Also, remember to leave marks along the way."

Jiang Yuan nodded, took the cake and turned around into the forest.

What Jiang Yuan didn't know was that Wei Xiaotong, who was sleeping while sitting at the entrance of the cave, suddenly opened his eyes.

After a while, Gao Peng walked not far away to relieve himself. When he came back, he found that Wei Xiaotong was missing!

His expression changed drastically, thinking that Wei Xiaotong

I also went to relieve myself.

But after waiting for more than ten minutes and still not seeing her come back, he immediately knew that Wei Xiaotong had followed Jiang Yuan.

He wanted to follow, but he didn't know the next route, not to mention there was a burden like Tian Hao.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Peng kicked Tian Hao directly, "Stop sleeping and come with me!"

After saying that, he put out the fire, turned on the flashlight, and walked quickly into the forest.

Seeing Gao Peng leaving, Tian Hao didn't hesitate to get angry and immediately stood up and followed him.

He didn't dare to stay here alone.

So Jiang Yuan doesn’t know that Wei Xiaotong is following him?

Of course we do!

The night had no effect on Jiang Yuan at all. In his sight, the woods at night were completely white, and there were many things emitting faint light swaying in the trees.

There are hares, pheasants, snakes, ants, earthworms...

Wei Xiaotong was also a little panicked.

At first, Jiang Yuan still turned on the flashlight, but within a mile of walking out, Jiang Yuan actually turned off the flashlight!

In this way, she would not be able to see Jiang Yuan's whereabouts.

She released her hand covering the flashlight source, and the beam instantly shot towards the grass ten meters away.

A gray-white snake just crawled out from the fallen leaves, frightening her and running back in panic.

But her body hit Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan reached out and grabbed her wrist and said coldly:

"Why are you following me!"

Wei Xiaotong felt relieved instantly when he heard Jiang Yuan's voice.

"I'm sorry, I just want to find my father."

Jiang Yuan frowned, "I can't take you with me, you will cause trouble for me."

Wei Xiaotong gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble."

Jiang Yuan shook his head, and before Wei Xiaotong could react, he hit her neck with his hand.

After she fainted, Jiang Yuan also saw the light in the distance.

He turned on the flashlight and waved it in that direction. A few minutes later, Gao Peng ran over with Tian Hao.

Jiang Yuan took out an old photo from Wei Xiaotong's pocket. It showed a man in his thirties who looked very similar to Wei Xiaotong.

"Boy, you tricked Xiaotong into coming here late at night with ulterior motives!"

Jiang Yuan slapped Tian Hao directly on the face, causing stars to pop out of his eyes.

"Stop causing trouble for me!"

Tian Hao became angry instantly and wanted to fight with Jiang Yuan, but was kicked over by Jiang Yuan again.

Then Jiang Yuan asked Gao Peng to take Wei Xiaotong back to the cave, while he quickly ran away.

Jiang Yuan only spent less than an hour on the ten-mile mountain road in the dark.

Standing on the top of a mountain, Jiang Yuan looked down and saw that several large mountains formed a small ravine here.

The small ravine is about fifty meters wide and hundreds of meters long. It is full of peach trees, so it is no wonder it is called Peach Valley.

On the mountain side of Taolin, there are many wooden buildings hidden in the dense forest.

If it weren't for a map, no one would be able to find this place.

In Jiang Yuan's sight, the auras of probably hundreds of people appeared on the opposite hillside.

At this time, most people had fallen into a deep sleep, and they would not have thought that someone had already come to their door.
