Chapter 465: Mountain God

"What does Brother Li mean?" Guo Dagui was still confused and could only ask again.

With a faint smile, Li Feibai did not answer directly, but said: "Don't you think they are a little strange?"

"Strange? What's strange?"

"I make a living by hunting, but I can't see any prey. Zou Zhong also said that there are no treasures in the village. Moreover, Zou Zhong is kind-hearted and seems to be afraid that we will meet something. He won't let us leave, so he forces us to stay overnight."

"That's right." Jia Ping said, "I just noticed that when they mentioned this, they were evasive and very taboo, as if they were afraid to mention it."

"Then what on earth could this be?" Guo Dagui's originally rekindled hope was suddenly extinguished.

"When Zou Zhong comes, let's ask him." Li Feibai made up his mind.

About half an hour later, Zou Zhong and a young man came to the crowd carrying four buckets of hot porridge mixed with wild vegetables.

"Wild vegetable soup?" Guo Dagui blurted out.

"I hope you gentlemen will not find it objectionable." Zou Zhong panted slightly, unloaded the bowls and chopsticks carried on one end of the pole, and then handed the pole to another person, who then left.

"There are not enough bowls and chopsticks at home. There are only five or six sets. I'm afraid you gentlemen will have to take turns eating." Zou Zhong said, cupping his fists.

"It's okay, thank you for your help, little brother." Guo Dagui returned the greeting.

Zhao Qiancheng didn't say anything. He was the first to step forward and pick up the bowls and chopsticks. He scooped some porridge from each of the four buckets and put them in his mouth to chew.

The spiritual power surges in the body and flows throughout the body, feeling abnormal.

After a while, no problem was found with the porridge, and Zhao Qiancheng nodded to everyone.

Zou Zhong was not stupid, so he naturally knew that he was testing poison, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, I made the porridge myself, so feel free to eat it."

At this moment, everyone was also hungry, so they stopped talking and raised their fists towards Zou Zhong. Guo Dagui handed Li Feibai a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Zhao Qiancheng served a bowl of porridge for Li Feibai, but tasted half a mouthful first, and then handed it to him if he had no problem.

After all, Jia Ping poisoned Nangong Banmeng just a few days ago.

If the other party has tampered with the bowls and chopsticks, there will naturally be no problem with the porridge in the bucket.

He was indeed hungry. Li Feibai took the porridge from Zhao Qiancheng's hand and drank it in big gulps.

Although it is not as good as delicacies from the mountains and seas, this mountain porridge is uniquely sweet.

After taking a bowl, I feel warm and comfortable all over my body.

On the side were Sun Linghe and Nangong Ji, both of whom shared a bowl.

The two of them seemed to have never eaten wild vegetable soup, they kept nodding and eating with relish.

"Brother Zou's craftsmanship is comparable to that of a great chef."

Li Feibai finished the porridge and handed the bowl to the muscular man next to Guo Dagui.

Without scrubbing, he scooped out a bowl of porridge, knelt down next to Guo Dagui and started eating.

"It's all rough work, it's hard to be elegant." Zou Zhong touched his neck, a little shy.

At this time, Guo Dagui had also finished eating. He motioned for Zou Zhong to sit down and said, "I think this little brother is very talkative and knowledgeable. He must have read a book, right?"

"It's just that I have learned a few books on my own, which is embarrassing." Zou Zhong replied modestly.

"No, no, no." Guo Dagui shook his finger: "Those who can know the value of my goods must be knowledgeable, and they will never be able to know the value of ordinary pedantic scholars. May I ask, brother, what book are you reading?"

"To be honest, Mr. Guo, I have also loved doing business since I was a child, so I have read some books on business, which is not worth mentioning." Zou Zhong waved his hand.

"Oh, you also like business?" Guo Dagui became interested.

"Exactly. That's why I just met you all and felt very cordial, so I insisted on letting you spend the night. In fact, I have selfish motives." Zou Zhong said.

Smiling slightly, Guo Dagui replied cordially: "What do you want me to do? You might as well tell me and see."

"It's nothing, I just have some doubts in my mind and would like to ask you for some advice."

"Then you have found the right person." Jia Ping said with a smile: "We are all business people. We do not say we are rich in knowledge, but we have experience. If you want to start a business in the future, Mr. Guo and I can give you some

suggestion."

He doesn't speak as modestly as Guo Dagui.

"Then I would like to thank you all in advance." Zou Zhong stood up and bowed deeply.

Then, everyone gave their opinions on some of the doubts he raised.

Zou Zhong's face bloomed with brilliance from time to time, as if he had found a treasure.

This conversation lasted for two hours.

Zou Zhong, who was suddenly enlightened, realized that it was already late at night.

He immediately stood up, clasped his fists slightly apologetically and said, "It's late at night. I'm disturbing all of you gentlemen from their rest. I'll take my leave now."

"Hey, don't worry." Li Feibai stopped him.

"Master Li, do you have any other instructions?" Zou Zhong turned around.

"You have asked us so many things, and we also have some questions that we would like to ask you for." Li Feibai smiled mysteriously at the corner of his mouth.ωωw.

Zou Zhong was startled, then smiled bitterly and said: "How can I, a mere village man, answer any questions?"

"Of course you know that, so I asked you." Li Feibai motioned for Zou Zhong to sit down again.

Helpless, Zou Zhong could only sit back down.

"Master Li, if you want to ask anything, just ask, and I will tell you everything you know." Zou Zhong was grateful for the advice from these people.

"Is there a path leading to the Kingdom of Zhu in this mountain?" Li Feibai pointed to the height of the mountain and asked straight to the point.

As if he had expected that he would ask this question, Zou Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest with you, there is indeed a road that can cross Yiyang City and reach Zhu State directly."

"Is there really a way?" Guo Dagui's face was full of joy.

"There is a way, but..." Zou Zhong grimaced and hesitated to speak.

"Brother, it's okay to say it." Li Fei said loudly.

"well."

Zou Zhong sighed, as if he was willing to give it all, and said: "Forget it, you gentlemen will give me generous advice, and I won't hide it from you. Although there are roads in the mountains, recently, no one in the village dares to go up the mountain anymore."

"Why is this?" Li Feibai asked.

"Because... the mountain god is angry." After Zou Zhong finished speaking, he looked around and felt quite fearful.

"Mountain God?" Jia Ping was a little surprised.

"Are there really ghosts and gods in this world?" Guo Dagui also opened his mouth.

Li Feibai and Zhao Qiancheng looked at each other, naturally they didn't believe it.

"No, this mountain god is very powerful. He comes and goes without a trace. He can also float in the air and kill people with just a wave of his hand." Zou Zhong's voice became lower and lower.

Li Feibai said, "You are so specific. Could it be that you have seen it with your own eyes?"

"Of course, I remember that about two months ago, my brother took us up the mountain to hunt. Suddenly we met the mountain god. He killed about ten of us with a wave of his hand. We were so frightened that we kowtowed and begged for mercy."

"What happens after that?"

"Later he claimed to be the mountain god of this mountain. The prey on this mountain are all his people. We killed too many people and angered him. He just took the lives of my companions and warned us that if we dare to step into the mountain again,
