"News? What news?" Hearing what he said, I became interested at that time. After hearing this, the old man put down the teapot and sat aside and said to me with a smile: "What, a foreigner?"
"Ah, I'm here for traveling." I said and nodded to him. When the old man heard what I said, he said "oh" and then walked to the counter and said something to the waiter before turning back.
I was curious and continued to ask. Seeing that I was really interested, the old man sighed and said to me: "You are a foreigner, so you may not know that things are not peaceful here these days. Do you know what happened?"
It’s funny to say it. Let me tell you, how many things have happened here in our area?
The lizards are so big that even experts can’t identify what they are and where they came from! Some people say that those lizards are the mythical beasts that guard the tombs. Wherever there are such things, there must be large ancient animals.
Tomb, isn’t it? A lot of people came out and wanted to find the source of those things!”
"Oh." After hearing this, I suddenly realized it. Although I pretended to be similar, I was actually not curious at all, because I know the origin of that giant lizard better than anyone else. The rest of us are the ones who have to say it.
People accidentally let those things go.
Thinking back on the last experience, it was probably the hurricane that blew those things out together with us. I don’t know how many there were, but I know the ferocity of those things!
Damn it!
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt something bad. Those lizards came out, that...that...that...that...could it be those tree demons in the forest who were about to become spirits?
Also came out!? Oh my God, isn’t it...
When I think of that thing, I feel scared, not because of how powerful it is, but because I think that thing is like an infectious disease. If one bites someone, it will cause a disaster like a zombie.
!
Thinking of this, I quickly asked the old man if he had heard that something that looked like a tree or a human appeared nearby.
After hearing this, the old man looked at me blankly, then smiled and said to me: "Young man, why do you say that? There are many weird things in our mountains, but they are not a monster's nest.
Have you read too many novels? It still looks like a tree and a human being. Could it be that the little tree turned into a spirit?"
"Oh, that's fine." I said and nodded. At this time, the waiter behind the counter who was playing with his mobile phone interrupted: "Old man, you can't say it absolutely. In the mountains behind us, what's going on?"
There are no weird things! Otherwise, what would those people be doing here? To put it bluntly, they are not here to snatch the treasure. Just watch, it won’t take long before you’re beaten like a bloody gourd!”
"You're right." The old man said, took a sip from the teapot, and then said to me with a playful smile: "Not far from our place, there is a place that used to be a big river. In the past two years,
Due to the drought, the river has become much shallower. Recently I heard that there are people in the river.
Treasures have been dug out. Many people are tossing by the river. I think you are quite free. Why don't you go and see the excitement? If you are lucky, you can pick up two treasures! There were some two days ago.
A young man picked up a bone in the river, he is so big!"
As the old man spoke, he made exaggerated gestures. Seeing that he was serious, I grinned and asked him: "Damn it, boss, is it a dinosaur fossil or the skeleton of an ox and horse?"
"No, it has horns on its head! Some say it's Pixiu, some say it's Qilin, and some say it's a dragon bone. Anyway, that thing is not common, and it's old. I guess it might be something like a fossil.
!" The old man said, his brows furrowed as if he was remembering something that he couldn't figure out.
"Oh, so you still have fossils here?" I said with a smile.
"No, no, no, no, there are no fossils in our place!" The old man said, waving his hand. At this time, the waiter behind the counter also put down his mobile phone and said to me with a smile: "This little brother, you look like you have suffered too."
Higher education, is it possible that you don’t even know the special structure of the geology where fossils are produced? You can’t just find a place and dig out fossils!”
"I know this. Someone told me this when I was traveling." Seeing that I was being looked down upon, I quickly excused myself.
"Since you know, you shouldn't ask this. But, to be honest, that bone is really strange. It looks like it was left by some animal a long time ago. Maybe it really belongs to some mythical beast.
Where are the corpses? My grandfather’s grandfather said that there were monsters here a long, long time ago! Do you believe in monsters? They are the kind that don’t look like humans but can talk!”
As the waiter said this, he made two "six" signs and put them on his forehead. It looked a bit silly, but quite cute.
"I've seen it." I nodded and said.
"Huh!?!?" As soon as these words came out, the two people who were originally smiling were shocked, and then the old man laughed and said to me: "Stop talking nonsense, the monster will not eat you when it encounters you!"
Young people nowadays love to brag so much!"
"I'm serious, and I'm not bragging. I used to be a Taoist priest, and I went into the mountains with my master to catch a lot of amazing things." I said, half-jokingly telling them some of the things I had encountered, such as before.
There are fish, water monkeys, and even the huge toad with teeth that I just pissed off.
The two people didn't know whether what I said was true or false, but they were attracted by my exaggerated description. When they were chatting happily, a little boy ran in from outside holding an iron bar and wearing a grunt.
, the little boy ran in, panting, and before anyone showed up, he was heard shouting in a very childish voice: "Grandpa, Grandpa! Come out and see! The people by the river are fighting again!"
"What!? Another treasure has been dug!?!?" When the old man heard this, his eyes shone brightly. At this time, he heard the little boy gasping and squatting down and saying to him: "Yes,
Yes, someone...someone...has
Someone dug out the coffin of a big boss from the river! Oh, that coffin is so beautiful! Old Jiangtou said it must be a treasure! There are gold, silver and jewels hidden in it! Now, those people say they dug it themselves
