It was already dusk when Dingxiang, Xu Xiaobei, and Wuhua arrived at Zhangmu.

Along the Lhasa River all the way to the west, day-trippers will go to Lazi and then turn southwest, pass by the spectacular Gyatso La Mountain pass, cross the majestic Laya Mountains, and gradually transition from the continuous snow-capped mountain peaks to the vast grassland. The scenery along the way to the humid and rainy camphor tree with rich vegetation is majestic and magnificent.

It was the first time for several people to experience such a long journey in their lives, but no one was in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Among the three, Wu Hua has the deepest cultivation, Ding Xiang has the best cultivation, and Xu Xiaobei is slightly worse, but he can barely keep up with his powerful Vajra legs.

Ding Xiang relied on the Liuxu Wheel to track all the way.

She couldn't lock Hui Hang, but wherever Hui Hang stayed, the aura of the white snake and the little turtle would be left behind.

On a river beach in the Lhasa section of the China-Nepal Highway, they found tents and backpacks left by some travelers, as well as half-cooked meals on the spot.

Ding Xiang found the breath left by the white snake and the turtle there, and at the same time she also smelled a very strange greed and evil spirit.

The smell made her a little nauseous and uneasy.

She was very worried about the safety of Xiaobai and Xiaohei.

Fortunately, their scent is still continuing on the road ahead, but they seem to have accelerated their pace, and the distance between each stop is getting longer and longer.

The climate of camphor wood is humid, not as clean as the plateau snow-capped mountains, and the smell is mixed and difficult to lock in.

This is the border port between China and Nepal. There are constant travelers coming and going. There is also a market in the town. Compared with the empty and sparse plateau, this place seems lively and chaotic.

"How about resting here for the night? I really can't walk anymore." Xu Xiaobei said with a grimace.

Wuhua clasped his hands and stood aside without speaking. But judging from his complexion, he was not relaxed.

They were hurrying slowly, chasing more than 5,000 kilometers in three days, and had to carefully track them all the way. They didn't dare to relax at all, and everyone was exhausted.

Lilac was also very tired. Every time she uses the Six Void Rotation Technique to track the remaining breath in a large area, she will consume a lot of mana and energy.

She stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the town opposite.

The setting sun shines on the hillside, and the scattered red and white houses glow magically.

This is a beautiful place, with a hint of human life in its tranquility, which makes people feel calm but not indifferent.

The Six Void Wheel Dial was in the palm of her hand, but whether it was because she had run out of mana or because the earth veins here were special, Ding Xiang couldn't move the space smoothly, and naturally she couldn't find any aura of Xiaobai and Xiaohei.

"Okay." Ding Xiang nodded, "Just rest here for the night and continue on the road tomorrow."

They found a hotel to stay in Zhangmu.

After taking a short rest and eating some food, the three of them went to the market for a stroll.

The market at night is not as lively as during the day, but I heard that there are some unexpected goodies for sale at night.

Ding Xiang had no intention of visiting the market, she just silently ran the compass method, hoping to find any remaining traces of Xiao Bai.

Although her mana recovered after a short rest, she found that the compass was still not operating smoothly.

Here it seems that several earth veins are coming together, moving in disorder, and behind it is the roof of the world, with an entire mountain range of the majestic and heavy Himalayas pressing on it.

Ding Xiang felt a little powerless. Every time she turned the compass, it was as if the high snow-capped mountains were pressing down on her heart.

When she was resting just now, she also took a magical elixir, but it had little effect.

This made her very worried. In this state, it might be difficult to rescue Xiaobai and Xiaohei from Huihang.

Suddenly, she smelled a faint fragrance.

It was a very peculiar aroma that made her feel refreshed.

Lilac followed the scent and found a seller of herbal medicine in the corner of the market. There were some herbs spread on the ground. The smell just now came from a dark red plant with a strange shape, a bit like a tree root dug out of the ground. With a little soil.

Ding Xiang realized that this thing probably grew in the special earth veins here, so it could also relieve her current discomfort caused by the chaos of the earth veins.

"What is this?" she squatted down and asked.

"Bamboo shoots, bamboo shoots..." the stall owner explained in awkward Mandarin and gestured with his hands, as if to say that he had just dug them out of the soil.

"Bamboo shoots?" Ding Xiang was very confused and wanted to pick it up and take a look.

The stall owner put a handful in a cloth bag and refused to let her touch it, as if she were a robber.

Xu Xiaobei said: "How much does it cost? Let's buy it."

The stall owner held out a palm.

"Fifty?" Xu Xiaobei asked.

The stall owner shook his head.

"five hundred?"

The stall owner shook his head again.

"Five thousand?"

The stall owner nodded.

"What the hell? A tree root costs five thousand. Are you robbing me?" Xu Xiaobei said in a stupefied tone.

The stall owner gave them a dissatisfied look and protected the tree roots tighter.

Ding Xiang said: "Five thousand is five thousand, buy it."

"Okay, okay, I'll pay." Xu Xiaobei said, taking out his mobile phone, "Where's your code?"

But the stall owner shook his head: "No mother, no mother."

"What's wrong? Who's asking about your mother? I'm asking you about the QR code? How can I pay if I don't scan the code?" Xu Xiaobei was almost angry.

But the stall owner still emphasized: "No mom! No mom! Cash! Cash!"

"Cash? Man, who carries so much cash these days?"

The stall owner collected the items and showed that he would not sell them unless he paid cash.

Xu Xiaobei spread his hands towards Ding Xiang: "There is nothing we can do."

Ding Xiang stood up and said, "Let's go to the hotel to change some."

They were just about to leave when they suddenly heard someone say: "How much does it cost? I'll pay it for you."

Ding Xiang turned around and saw a man in white walking over.

This man is dressed in white clothes, clean and fresh, and his facial features are also very delicate, especially his two sword eyebrows, which look quite heroic, and his eyes are even more lively, and they are piercing even if the sky is dark.

Most of the people who come to Zhangmu are tired travelers, but this person feels out of place with the environment here.

Before Ding Xiang could speak, the man had already taken out a wad of cash and handed it over.

The stall owner took it and counted the banknotes with dirty, dark hands.

While he was counting the money, the man in white smiled and said to Ding Xiang: "The girl is from other places, I don't know the market here. He is from Niboluo. Although Alipay can be used there, it is not as popular as in China." , Bring back a string of numbers on your mobile phone, but it’s not as reliable as cash.”

Ding Xiang nodded: "Thank you, I will transfer the money to you."

"No, it's just a little money, just make a friend." The man in white said.

Ding Xiang was fine, but Xu Xiaobei next to her was very unhappy.

"What kind of friends do you want to make? Who has made friends with you? Come on, come on, take out your mobile phone, and pay you back. Isn't it just five thousand? I'll give you an extra zero, okay? Don't mess around!"

"Xiao Bei!" Ding Xiang stopped him, "Don't be so rude, they helped us after all."

Xu Xiaobei snorted and glanced at the man in white. When he saw the handsome and heroic face and the spotless white clothes, he felt uncomfortable as if there was sand in his eyes. He turned away angrily and looked up to count the stars.

The stall owner finished counting the money and happily handed the things to the man in white.

The man in white handed it to Lilac and said: "This thing is the root of purple bamboo, which is relatively rare. However, ordinary people don't recognize this thing. Generally, only Tibetan pharmacists will buy it. If a girl can recognize its preciousness, she is considered a destined person."

"Purple Bamboo Root?!"

Ding Xiang suddenly thought of Zizhu Temple. Where there is Zizhu, will Huihang be found?

"Do you know where this thing is produced?"

"At the southern foot of Mount Ya, there are some scattered here and there. If you want it, girl, you can ask the herb collectors from Niboluo to collect it. You can just buy it here."

"Oh no, I have to find it myself."

The man in white frowned slightly: "Where the purple bamboo grows, the ground veins are often abnormal and very dangerous. Girl, I advise you not to go."

Ding Xiang smiled and said: "Thank you for reminding me, I still want to go. Oh, by the way, my name is Ding Xiang, what do you call me?"

"I'm Bai Chen." The man in white bowed slightly.
