It was really difficult to find Zhang Ling's house. The staff searched the mountain for an entire day before they found the place.
Jiang Chuan and the others often climbed the eastern side of the mountain. Her house was on the western side of the mountain. They couldn't go from the east side, they had to go around to the west side to go up.
There were only two or three families scattered on the mountain. Moreover, the mountain road was winding from east to west. Even with a map, one might not be able to find the place. Zhang Ling only gave a rough location and did not draw a map.
By the time the staff found the Zhang family, they were already out of breath. Even in the deep autumn season, their clothes were soaked in sweat.
Given the pretext of a population census, the staff didn't ask too many questions. After getting a basic understanding, they left and informed Chen Xing of the situation over the phone.
