City Primordial Witch King

Chapter 768
In today's world, with such an extremely convenient thing as a map, it is not too simple to find a clue by the map.

Wei Xiao flew to the sky with his sword, and searched according to the map, and soon came to the first destination.

This is an ordinary hill, neither high nor high, with no characteristics, and it is also inconspicuous. It doesn't even have a formal name.

However, next to it is the most famous river on the land of China.

Originally, this was just an unknown hill, but when Wei Xiao was searching the Internet, he accidentally found a piece of news about this hill.

Just a few months ago, this hill was eroded by flowing water for many years, and most of the mountain was emptied, so a large-scale landslide appeared.

Fortunately, the local people were warned in advance, so they were not affected by the disaster.

The landslide also caused the embankment of the big river to collapse, and a large amount of river water rushed into the nearby farmland, destroying many fields.

However, when the nearby villagers reorganized the fields, they found a lot of precious stones in the fields, which were quite valuable.

Because of these precious jades, the people affected by the disaster not only did not resent the hill, but were full of gratitude. Some people even wanted to get something for nothing, and they were looking forward to another landslide all day long.

The matter of this hill was spread out later, and even got local news reports. Many foreigners also came here especially, wanting to see the mountain that can break out of gems.

However, after those outsiders came, no one had such luck. Except for the villagers who first picked up the gems, no one had ever seen other gems.

Among them, there is also a big episode.

There is a group of malicious hooligans who think that since gems can be rushed out of the mountain, it means that there are more hidden in the mountain.

So they organized and went into the mountains together to look for gems, brought mining tools, and even explosives that could open mountains and crack rocks.

However, just as the gangsters were about to act, the local villagers learned of the news and reported the case.

These gangsters were caught on the spot near the hill, and with all their stolen goods, they not only confessed the crime, but were also caught and sentenced to several years in prison.

The charges are: theft of state resources.

After all, these mountains belong to the country!

Wei Xiao saw this news on the Internet, and then connected it with that "Senior Mussel", and was quite sure that Senior Mussel should be on this mountain.

He came to a nearby village with his sword, then found a hidden place, and landed quietly on the ground.

Since he came to find someone and wanted something from someone, it was naturally impossible for Wei Xiao to just come to the door like this, and he still had to do the proper manners, otherwise it would be considered impolite.

He walked quickly into the nearby village, and soon found an old man with his grandson.

The old man is about 60 years old, his hair is only slightly white, and he looks quite good.

The little grandson is six or seven years old, and because it is spring and the weather is warm, he only wears a long-sleeved woolen sweater.

The grandfather and grandson were playing chess under a big tree at the head of the village. They were talking and laughing with each other. From the laughter from afar, Wei Xiao could tell that they were playing chess, and that the grandson seemed to be about to win.

At this moment, Wei Xiao walked over quickly and asked aloud: "Master, hello. I'm a passerby here. I want to ask you a few questions. Is it convenient?"

His voice interrupted the game between the grandpa and grandson, and the old man turned his head to look at him with some doubts in his eyes.

The little grandson also stopped the chess piece in his hand, and looked at Wei Xiao curiously. When he heard "ask a question", he seemed to curl his lips, with some displeasure on his face.

"Outsider? What are you doing here?" The old man's tone was a bit hostile, and instead of answering Wei Xiao's question, he asked first.

"Uh..." Wei Xiao didn't expect this to be the case, but he turned his mind a little, and soon remembered the situation in the news report.

Perhaps too many foreigners came here before, and the purpose was very bad, which led to the hostility of the locals towards outsiders.

However, this kind of hostility will not last long, as the heat of the gem turmoil dissipates, it will soon dissipate.

But it's a pity that Wei Xiao came at the right time this time, and it was the time when the whole village didn't want to see outsiders.

"I came here because I want to go to the hill over there." Wei Xiao thought for a long time, but still honestly stated his purpose.

However, as soon as he said this, he immediately noticed that the old man's eyes became sharper, so he quickly continued to add: "However, I didn't come here for the gemstones in the mountain, I just want to go up the mountain to have a look!"

"Hmph! Which of you outsiders didn't say that?" The little grandson next to him suddenly interrupted.

The old man didn't speak, but looked at Wei Xiao carefully with his eyes wide open. After watching for a long time, he found that his face was immature and his eyes were quite clear. He didn't look like a bad person anyway.

"What do you do? What do you go up for? If you want to see it, you can just go down the mountain and you can't see it. Why go up the mountain?" The old man asked questions one after another, as if he didn't want to give Wei Xiao too much time to think.

However, Wei Xiao did not need to think too much, and answered all the questions directly and truthfully.

"I'm still a senior student. I went up the mountain just to see it. As for why I don't look at it from the bottom of the mountain, it's because I can't see the scenery on the mountain from the bottom of the mountain."

Now, it was the old man's turn to be stunned.

This was the first time he heard such an answer, and he felt it was quite novel, but after thinking about it, since the other party was a college student, it was not surprising that he could say such a thing.

After thinking about it for a while, the old man still chose to trust his own vision, so he breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and said, "Alright, you can go if you want, but don't let us find out what you are doing, or we will call the police!" The old man did not forget to warn at the end.

Of course, it is unknown whether his words will have any effect.

Seeing that the other party dispelled his doubts, Wei Xiao also heaved a sigh of relief, and then said: "Master, you haven't answered my question just now, um, can I ask you a few things."

"Okay! You can ask." After the old man lost his guard, he became much more talkative, and the chess game with his grandson started again.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Wei Xiao was slightly delighted, and then asked unceremoniously: "Master, what did the hill next to your village look like before? Why did it suddenly collapse?"
