Beside the pond, a bonfire was burning brightly, and several fish were roasted on the bonfire, emitting a fragrant aroma.

Dahua had finished eating a fish and was still looking at the grilled fish, but the fire was too hot and he didn't dare to touch it.

Liu Xia Lian took out some Isatis root from her bag and made some tea for the Saker Falcon, but it was a bird after all, so it only drank a little and she didn't know if it would work.

"Xiaoqing, be good. Drink another sip. Your cold will be cured after one sip."

The Saker Falcon had no choice but to drink another sip of Isatis root. It was obvious that it was coping well, fearing that Liu Xia Lian would poison it to death.

Liu Xia Lian brought it a roasted fish and placed it on the rock next to it, and the Saker Falcon ate it by itself.

The big cat was sneaking around and trying to steal some food, but the Saker Falcon showed it its claws and scared it back three meters away.

Zhao Yong asked: "Sister, we are going to have a barbecue now and then a barbecue, what are your plans for the afternoon?"

"Go north from here, and turn back for a distance. There is a valley with a lot of trees. Let's search for meteorites in the woods. We may or may not find meteorites, but we can't come here in vain. We can't come all the way here from afar and return empty-handed."

Zhao Yong understood that Liu Xia Lian was going to chase the mountain.

At this time, Tashi, who was on guard, said, "Two people are coming from the west."

Liu Xialian took a look through the telescope and found the two men quite interesting. One was wearing a light yellow Taoist robe, in his early thirties, with a sword on his back and a whisk in his hand. Next to him was a man wearing a gray Taoist robe, a few years younger, strong as an ox. The big package weighed at least dozens of kilograms, and there was an umbrella and a shovel outside the package, and he was holding an oxtail knife in his hand.

There were clearly two people walking, but it seemed as if the snow had shortened the distance, and they were moving surprisingly fast.

"Master, enemy or friend is unknown, bullets loaded, everyone on alert."

After Liu Xia Lian said this, everyone immediately put down the grilled fish in their mouths and picked up the shotguns in their hands. This thing was the only way to fight in close combat.

After a while, two Taoist priests arrived. The one in the yellow Taoist robe smiled and said, "Why does it smell so good? It turns out that some Taoist friends are barbecuing here."

Liu Xia Lian said with a smile: "What are your names, Taoist priests? Why are you here in this wasteland?"

The yellow Taoist robe waved his whisk and said, "I am Feilong."

Feilong, isn’t a Feilong just a bird? It seems that this Taoist is not a good bird, so be careful.

The man in the grey robe stuttered a little: "I am a poor Taoist Tiehu. My master and I got lost and came to the mountain to pick snow lotus."

"Oh, I see. Meeting is fate. Dayong will give the two fish to the two Taoist friends."

"Okay." Dayong took two fish and gave them to the two Taoist priests.

These two guys were really rude. They took out their cowhide wine bags and ate fish and drank wine, having a great time.

Liu Xia Lian saw clearly that these two people were not serious Taoists. They were probably Taoists who were tomb raiders and treasure hunters, and they were gangsters with Brownings hidden on their waists, as well as several large and small swords.

Tiehu was quite talkative, asking, "Are you hunters from the mountains? Why are you carrying so many guns?"

"No, we are armed police and we are ordered to patrol the mountains." Liu Xia Lian deliberately scared them.

The Taoist priest in yellow robe was startled, but soon calmed down, because he had noticed that this group of people was unusual. A group of people were holding the Eight-Step Boom, and there were military horses parked beside them. Their background must be extraordinary. The reason why he came here was to find out what treasures these people were looking for. There is a saying in this business, "If you don't open a business for three years, you can make a living for three years after opening it." In fact, this is a conservative saying.

Once a large tomb is opened, it would be no problem to feed yourself for thirty years, let alone three years.

The reason why the two of them came to this prairie was not because they were lost, but because they had committed crimes and could no longer survive in the Central Plains, so they came here.

Tiehu took down the leather wine bag and handed it to Daniu: "Brother, would you like to drink?"

Although Li Daniu is simple-minded, he still stays sober at the critical moment: "I, I don't drink."

Daya slapped Da Niu on the shoulder and said, "Don't learn to stutter. You can't change it once you learn it."

Daniu was so aggrieved, he just wanted to have fun but he didn't expect to get beaten.

Liu Xia Lian smiled: "It's okay, stop teasing me."

Taoist Priest Feilong saw that Liu Xialian and the others were keeping their mouths shut and were on high alert. He knew he couldn't get anything out of them, so he ate the fish, drank a few sips of wine, and stood up to say goodbye: "Sorry to bother you all, I'll leave first."

Liu Xia Lian smiled and said, "It's okay, we'll see each other again if we're lucky."

Before leaving, Taoist Feilong glanced at the pond, then walked away quickly with his disciple.

The two men walked very fast. They walked in the snow without any delay. Their speed almost caught up with the running speed of ordinary people. They were far away in the blink of an eye.

Watching the two people walking away, Zhao Yong looked at Liu Xialian and said, "Sister, do you see anything?"

"It's like a louse on a bald head. Who would go to the snowy mountains to stroll? There's no human habitation within hundreds of miles. There are wolves everywhere. These two are martial arts masters with high attainments in martial arts."

Zhao Yong was unconvinced: "How high can it be? I don't believe it. Can it be as fast as my gun?"

"You have to believe it even if you don't want to. Your ability is only at the level of a field army, right?"

"Yes, I admit that. Although I learned a little from you, you only taught me the basics."

"When my father led a hundred elite soldiers to capture Diaohenhu, he encountered a master who shot and injured more than a dozen soldiers with a flying knife while being surrounded by dozens of people. This was not the scariest thing. The scariest thing was that the soldiers were stabbed in the shoulders, which means he held back."

Zhao Yong was speechless for a while: "Okay, I admit there is a master, when are you going to teach me some real kung fu?"

Liu Xia Lian thought about it and decided that the meteorite must be safe because Taoist Feilong had just glanced at the pond. She didn't know if he had seen it. She immediately asked Tashi, "You can use the radio, right?"

"Correct."

"Go back to the camp and send a telegram to Uncle Seventh. Tell him that a suspected meteorite was found in the lake. The water is more than ten meters deep and it is impossible to determine. Ask him to send a professional diver over immediately."

Everyone was shocked: "What, we found a meteorite?"

"Didn't I tell you? Suspected? What does suspected mean? It means uncertainty. I was planning to report after I was sure, but those two Taoists just now made me very alert. We have to be careful."

"Tasi, Bart, you two will ride back to the camp. After sending the telegram, the two people left behind will follow. There is no use there. I think Uncle Seven will arrange for someone to come as soon as he receives the telegram. We just need to stay there for one night."

"Okay, we'll go back now."

The two men mounted their horses and galloped away. It was noon when the wolves were less active, so their safety was guaranteed. Moreover, these two men were from ethnic minorities and had excellent horsemanship, so there was no need to worry too much.

Liu Xia Lian immediately arranged for Zhao Yong and Daniu to pile up sandbags and snow bags to build a simple shelter around the camp, and then pulled up barbed wire from the outside.
