Reborn King of Marketing

After following the footprints for a few hundred meters, the snow on the ground disappeared.

Zhang Xuebing suddenly had a headache. Where did the footprints come from without the snow? How could he track them? Do they have to search for them in a radius of hundreds of miles?

At this time, Xiong Zhan came to the front, lowered his head and looked at the ground carefully, and then pointed in a direction, "Over there!"

As an old scout, surveying the terrain and tracking were his majors, and they came in handy at this time.

Xiong Zhan investigated the traces, and the two of them pursued them all the way to the conical mountain surrounded by mountains.

It's getting hotter and hotter here, and there's still a faint smell of sulfur in the air.

It seems there must be a hot spring in front.

At this moment, Xiong Zhan suddenly pointed to the ground and said.

"Old Corner has turned again!"

Zhang Xuebing couldn't help complaining, could this guy get up in the middle of the night and play hide-and-seek with him?

He gritted his teeth and said, "Chase, we must find him. I still don't believe it. Can he escape from Asia?"

At the bottom of the mountain, the road gradually became steeper and there were huge black rocks everywhere.

The small one is about the size of a pumpkin, and the big one is as big as a house.

It can be said that there is no road at all now. It is very dangerous for the two of them to climb between these huge rocks and carefully search for the traces of the horned wood dragon. If they are not careful, they may be injured or even killed.

Halfway through the climb, the two of them were already exhausted and covered in sweat. They felt more tired than they had since midnight.

Zhang Xuebing couldn't climb anymore, so he sat down on a flat boulder and asked Xiong Zhan to take a break.

Xiong Zhan was as tired as a bear. He sat next to Zhang Xuebing, breathing heavily, taking out a cigarette from his pocket and handing one to him.

Zhang Xuebing, who usually doesn't like smoking, lit one in order to relieve his fatigue and returned the lighter to Xiong Zhan.

Xiong Zhan puffed out smoke and said, "Lao Jiao is planning to exhaust us both to death. I really don't know where he went. What song is he singing?"

Zhang Xuebing slapped his hand on the stone and said angrily, "Even if I search all over the mountain, I still have to find him!"

At this moment, a tired voice sounded from the side.

"You are finally here!"

Zhang Xuebing and Xiong Zhan were excited at the same time. Unexpectedly, it took no effort to break through the iron shoes and find no place, but the voice of the Jiaomu Jiao came from the side.

Everyone, please go and try it soon.】

Like clockwork, Zhang Xuebing stood up suddenly, walked around the boulder, and looked down.

Sure enough, the ragged hornwood dragon was lying under the boulder.

At this moment, the Jiaomu Jiao didn't have a piece of good cloth all over his body. He was almost as good as a beggar. He must have been scraped from the branches in the woods.

There were bloodstains everywhere on his face and hands, his hat was missing, the hair on his head was like a tangle of grass, and his expression was even more exhausted.

Lying on the ground holding a half-dead fat rabbit in his hand.

Zhang Xuebing was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

"Brother Lao Jiao, how old are you? Are you ready to travel hundreds of miles just to catch a rabbit?" Zhang Xuebing complained all over the place.

Xiong Zhan came over and gave a thumbs up to Jiaomu Jiao.

"Brother, you are so particular. You have prepared lunch in advance!"

Jiaomu Jiao said with a sad face, "I'm lost, do you believe it?"

The two of them helped him up onto the boulder and got ready, then took out a kettle for him to drink and relax.

After Jiao Mujiao told them, they finally knew what happened.

It turned out that during the night watch, Jiaomujiao discovered a fat hare.

Then I thought that they were trapped in the forest without supplies, and catching this rabbit could serve as food for a day.

So he threw the dagger, and the flying knife that he had caught easily failed to hit the rabbit's vital part because it was too dark, and it just stuck in its leg.

The rabbit actually took the dagger and limped away deep into the forest.

Jiaomujiao thought that it didn't matter if he didn't catch the rabbit, but this dagger had been with him for many years. It was of great commemorative significance and he must not throw it away.

So he gritted his teeth and chased him regardless of the darkness and dense forest.

After following the blood trail for a short distance, I saw the rabbit limping ahead and running for its life.

It seemed that this guy was at the end of his strength, so he ran like crazy and finally approached the rabbit on a hillside.

Then the rabbit fell down the hillside.

Jiaomujiao felt unwilling for a while and went down the hillside. He found the rabbit and the dagger, but when he returned to the mountain along the hillside, he found that it was not the original place at all.

So he walked around the mountains for a while, and after dawn, he found himself in the middle of a volcano.

At this time, he was exhausted and exhausted, and it was almost impossible to return. After resting for a while, he began to plan to find a commanding height, see the surrounding environment clearly, and then make plans.

But halfway through the climb, he was thirsty and tired, and the geothermal heat here was abundant and the temperature was not cold, so he fell asleep halfway up the mountain.

It wasn't until I heard Zhang Xuebing and the others talking that I woke up.

Although this volcano is not too high, because there is no shelter around it, the mountain wind is quite strong.

Zhang Xuebing stood at the highest point, his clothes blown by the mountain wind, his hair dancing wildly.

The top of the mountain is quite flat, with almost no grass growing on it. There is nothing on the ground except large rocks.

Zhang Xuebing looked around in the distance and briefly noted the terrain.

To the south, there is a large mountain range with dense vegetation, which must be the dense forest they passed through when they came.

To the north is an endless plain, with faint traces of the highway still visible.

This side should be the main road to Vostok.

Finally, there are the east and west sides. To the west are those steamed bun-like hills, and there is a lot of hot air coming out of the ground. There should be geothermal hot springs.

As for the east, there are towering mountains.

Zhang Xuebing and Xiong Zhan returned to the boulder and began to discuss with Jiaomujiao where to go.

Xiong Zhan suggested that they should go back and find the car. With the car, they wouldn't have to worry about finding someone else's house.

Zhang Xuebing said in a deep voice, "We don't have much gas in the car. Even if we don't take a detour to get here, we probably won't have any gas. Why don't we go directly to the hot spring to repair it, and then find a nearby village. Besides, we don't have any important things in the car."

I’ve brought it with me, there’s no need to go back!”

According to common sense, as long as there are geothermal hot springs, they are not far from where people gather.

The three of them spent half a day together and felt that Zhang Xuebing's method was feasible.

When the sun rose to the middle, the three people finally found a creek and tried it. The water here was clear and transparent, had no peculiar smell and was completely drinkable.

Jiaomujiao picked up the rabbit from the stream, filled the water bottle, and headed directly to the place where the water vapor was thickest.

The surrounding mountains are like guards guarding the earth, with a large open space in the middle.

Numerous potholes on the ground erupted with dense heat and large amounts of hot water.

Some of the hot water can just be put into one's hands, some are even cold, and some even feel like a pot is boiling, and one doesn't even dare to put one's hand in it.
