Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 320 Departure
It turned out that the old man did not live in this small village before.

Instead, they live in the Shiwanda Mountain, and there is a clear and sweet water pool next to the village. They use the water in the pool for daily drinking and cooking.

But I don’t know if it’s because of the water pool. All the old people living in the village at that time lived a long life. The shortest lived to be 120 years old, while the long-lived ones lived to be 180 to [-] years old.

Moreover, they are all in good health, their teeth have not fallen out, and they cannot do strenuous exercise, but they are not paralyzed in bed and need to be taken care of by their children and grandchildren.

If a reporter could contact their village at that time, it would definitely cause a sensation in the whole country.

But unfortunately, one day, when the villagers in their village went to the pool to fetch water for cooking, suddenly a big boa constrictor sprang out, raged fiercely, and swallowed many people.

At that time, the villagers were panic-stricken, they had no idea that there would be such a terrifying boa constrictor sleeping in the pool, and everyone rushed to escape.

Old people who can't run fast, they can't carry or carry them, they can only run away with their children.

Those who escaped in the end, three out of ten.

From a small village with hundreds of people, there are more than [-] people running out.

Many people did not die in the mouth of the boa constrictor, but were killed by other ferocious beasts and poisonous insects during their escape.

One hundred thousand mountains are so dangerous.

As for the old man in front of Mu Jinyu, he was only a child of six or seven years old at the time, so the memory of the disaster was still fresh in his memory.

Now he is 120 years old, and his peers, even those a few generations younger than him, have passed away long ago.

Normally speaking, people in their 120s would lie in bed waiting to die if they could live to this age.

And like the old man in front of me, there are very few people who have not lost all their teeth and can still act like an 80-year-old man.

Therefore, the old man always believed that the fact that he was able to live such a long life without any disasters or diseases must have something to do with the water pool back then.

He has always regretted that he could no longer drink the water in the pool, otherwise he would probably live longer, even to 150 years old!
"I see."

After hearing the old man's sighs and sighs, Mu Jinyu couldn't help secretly feeling lucky. If he hadn't chosen to come to the old man's house for dinner, he probably would have asked someone else, but there would be no clues at all.

After all, the old man's contemporaries, even those a few generations younger than him, have long since died, and if the old man dies too, who will remember the past?
"Old man, do you know the specific route?"

Mu Jinyu asked expectantly.

The old man smiled and said: "If you ask others, you will definitely not be able to find out, but because I have always wanted to go back and drink the water from the pool, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I have already drawn a specific route back. It’s almost the same, but I’m afraid to go back because I’m afraid that the big snake is still there.”

Mu Jinyu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "The old man, can you sell me this road map?"

He is going to continue to spend money, after all, with this road map, it can save him ten days and half a month, which is absolutely worthwhile.

"I won't sell you, but I can give it to you."

The first sentence the old man spoke almost disappointed Mu Jinyu, but after listening to it, he knew that the old man should be willing to give it to him, but there were some requirements.

Sure enough, the old man continued: "I don't know where you got the news about the magical water pool, but I don't care, you should be quite sure, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't dare to come here, if you can bring it back to the water pool alive just give me a bottle of water..."

The old man was originally going to persuade Mu Jinyu and the others not to seek death, but after thinking about it, they already knew that there was a big python in the pool, and they dared to come here, so they are naturally somewhat sure, even if they tried to persuade them, they would not be able to persuade them. move.

So I thought, if they can really succeed, then I will give myself a bottle of water. After all, it is not too much to give them a bottle of water, right?

In this way, he estimated that he could live a few more years.

"Of course there is no problem." Mu Jinyu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the old man's request, and agreed without hesitation.

"Okay, then you wait, I thought that the road map I drew back then would be buried in the grave with me."

As the old man said, he got up, went back to the house, groped for a while, and finally handed a piece of yellowed paper to Mu Jinyu.

This paper has been stored for a long time, not only turned yellow, but also had many holes gnawed by insects, but it did not affect the viewing.

The old man guessed that when he drew this road view map, he was afraid that he would be old and his memory would be bad, and he would completely forget the way in, so he deliberately kept this road view map.

Holding this road map, Mu Jinyu couldn't understand it at first. After all, the old man is not a professional map painter, but drew it completely according to his own ideas, so it's very normal that others can't understand it.

But under the guidance of the old man, Mu Jinyu also roughly knew how to look and how to get in.

"Man, thank you very much."

After reading the road map, Mu Jinyu put it away carefully, for fear of accidentally damaging it.

Although he has a good memory, he can memorize it after reading it once, but this road view map is not drawn by professionals. He is afraid that he will be in trouble if he accidentally misunderstands it later. You can discuss it with Wang Zhengbiao and the others.

Might be another inspiration.

After that, Mu Jinyu said goodbye to the old man and left another 1 yuan.

Adding the 1 yuan, he has already left more than 5 yuan to the old man. It is not that he is stingy and doesn't want to give more, but because of the old man's situation, it is not good for him to give too much.

Even if it was only 5 yuan, Mu Jinyu was worried that it would attract thieves, and told the old man not to spend too much, so he left.

Walking out of the village and returning to the previous car, Wang Zhengbiao and the others opened the trunk and took out all the things inside.

Among them are tents, food, a change of clothes, machetes, firearms and other supplies.

Wang Zhengbiao and the others carried several backpacks, then closed the trunk, and said to Mu Jinyu, "Young Master Mu, we are ready and we can set off."

"Well, you took the pill."

Mu Jinyu took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket, poured out a few small black and yellow pills, and handed them to Wang Zhengbiao and the others.

When Wang Zhengbiao and the others saw this, they didn't ask Mu Jinyu what kind of pill it was and what it was for, they just ate it in one gulp.

Mu Jinyu also ate one for herself, and then explained:
"There are a lot of insects in Miaojiang's [-] mountains. Some insects are Gu worms released by Miaojiang Gu masters. This pill is my special anti-insect pill. No matter what kind of poisonous insects smell us, they dare not approach us. .”
