Chapter 1193 Terror in the middle of the night

The old man paused and said, "Although I am just living in seclusion in this deep mountain, isolated from the world."

"But I still know a little bit about some things, especially about those talented people in the martial arts world."

Jiang Wan was very surprised. She had asked Jia Haixia on the way here and learned that this old man had basically lived in this mountain for 30 years.

How could he possibly get to know people from the outside world in these 30 years?

In fact, when he learned the truth before going up the mountain, he had basically given up hope, but Jia Haixia said that the old man should be able to help.

Jiang Wan came here with a little bit of luck.

Now, hearing the old man bragging, she couldn't help but be curious, but she was not the kind of person who judged people by appearance, so she suppressed her suspicion and continued:

"I need some clairvoyance and clairaudience, and some people with high martial arts skills but pure hearts."

"We also need someone with other special abilities. It would be even better if we could find someone with clairvoyance or someone who is a rare talent that is different from ordinary people."

In fact, Jiang Wan has always been thinking that if she wants to be a security guard, she must have talents in all aspects.

In today's situation where there is no high-tech assistance, victory or defeat can only be determined by human ability.

The old man stroked his chin and walked around the yard, and finally said, "I can find some people for you, but I'm not sure whether you will be satisfied with their abilities."

"Because I, the old man, have been in this deep mountain for a long time and haven't been out. It will take some time to find them."

When Jiang Wan heard that there was a way, her mood immediately brightened up, and she hurriedly said, "The time is no problem, but we have to start in three months. During these three months, I will need another month to get used to the others."

"Uncle Master, you'd better find these people within two months."

The master waved his hand and said, "Three days is enough!"

Jiang Wan's eyes widened when she heard this, and her eyeballs almost popped out.

I thought to myself: Old man, could you please stop talking nonsense?

Three days!

Even if you get out of this mountain, it will probably take you two or three days. What can you accomplish in these three days?

The problem is that the old man has already said this, and she can't let him take it back.

Finally, he said helplessly: "Okay, where shall I wait for you in three days?"

The old man thought for a moment and said, "You will live in my yard for the next three days. After three days, when they arrive, you will be able to see them."

Jiang Wan understood that after all the fuss, the old man was treating this place as a gathering center.

Gather all the talented people here.

She thought about it and remembered that there was a saying in ancient times that carrier pigeons were used to deliver messages. If the old man also raised a lot of pigeons and let the pigeons fly to various places, it would not be impossible for them to arrive within two days.

This time she was more looking forward to the plan. There was only a small wooden house in the yard with only one bed, which could only accommodate one person.

Jiang Wan had no choice but to set up a tent in the yard and sleep in the tent with Jia Haixia.

The old man had no objection to this.

That night Jiang Wan personally cooked a sumptuous dinner for the old man and Jia Haixia. Jia Haixia had eaten Jiang Wan's cooking before and was used to it, but it was the first time for the old man.

I was shocked to eat such delicious food.

The old man said, "When I was young, I ate a lot in big restaurants outside. The food cooked by those chefs used a lot of seasonings, many of which were secret recipes passed down from their ancestors. There were more than a dozen kinds of medicinal herbs in the secret seasonings alone."

"It tastes great when you eat it suddenly, but if you eat it for a long time, your mouth will be filled with the taste of medicine, and the original aroma of the food will be gone."

"But you are different, little comrade. The dishes you cook have almost no additives. They are just the purest flavor of the food. At most, you add a little salt."

"That's amazing to me, how did you do that?"

Jiang Wan smiled!

She couldn't say that in the previous life, people returned to nature decades later and were unwilling to add so many additives and seasonings.

Under normal circumstances, only a little bit of salt is added to the food, and even things like chicken essence and soy sauce are rarely added.

This will allow the food to bring out its original aroma and taste even better.

She smiled sweetly at her uncle and said, "As long as you like it, I'll do it in the next few days."

Jia Haixia thought about it, rolled her eyes and whispered, "Uncle Master, I am now an appraiser at the Antiques Association. After our last cleanup, all the parasites in the Antiques Association have been kicked out."

"Would you like to come out and give some guidance?"

Upon hearing this, the master's expression changed and he snorted in displeasure.

He said, "I am an old man who doesn't care about those weird things. I won't go."

Jia Haixia's face looked a little ugly, but seeing that he disagreed, she did not force him.

After dinner, the two went into the tent to rest.

In the middle of the night when she was half asleep, Jiang Wan felt something sticky and slippery licking her.

She woke up suddenly, and when she opened her eyes she found that the old man's dog had somehow entered the tent and was rushing over to lick her hand.

Jiang Wan was frightened because the tent had a zipper.

I don’t know if Jia Haixia didn’t close the zipper when she came back, and the dog was able to get in.

She reached out and touched the puppy's head, pushed it out of the tent, and zipped it up.

Then he lay down and fell asleep again, but this time he hadn't slept for long when he heard the tent door ring again, and it was obvious that the zipper was moving.

Jiang Wan frowned and suddenly woke up, because she clearly noticed that Jia Haixia was lying next to her, not moving at all.

Who pulled the zipper? She moved her head quietly.

Let your eyes just be able to see the position of the zipper, and then you will see a dog's paw pulling at the zipper and pulling it up.

Jiang Wan woke up instantly. At this moment, she had lost all her sleepiness and was completely shocked.

She suddenly turned over and sat up, and her movement was so fast that it startled the dog's paw.

Then the dog's paw quickly withdrew.

It was quiet outside.

Jiang Wan looked at the door in shock, wondering if she was hallucinating. Could it be that she was dreaming because she was in a sleepless night?

She deliberately held her breath and waited for a long time before she saw the claw again. When she lay down again, she couldn't fall asleep and stayed up until dawn.

When she woke up, Jia Haixia had already gone out to help make breakfast, and the old man was practicing the Five Animal Exercises in the yard.

Jiang Wan came out of the tent with her eyes swollen like bulbs and looking very haggard.

Jia Haixia glanced at her and almost jumped up in shock. She asked in horror, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Wan came back to her senses and looked at her with confused eyes. After a long moment, she said, "Ignorance is bliss."
