The sky is filled with yellow sand, the wind is howling, and the entire earth and sky are earthy yellow.

This was Su Ren's first impression of the city in Jixizhou.

"There are actually people living in this place. If I stayed here for a week, I would feel like I would go crazy."

Xiong Da complained and looked around.

"Is it your first time coming to our Jixi City?"

An old man smoking a stick of local cigarette came close to Su Ren and the two.

Then he tightened the robe tightly with one hand and asked with a smile:

"I wonder what you two have come to Jixi City for? To brush up your book? To brush up on materials? Or to do a mission?"

"As long as you have needs, I can help."

Su Ren looked at him up and down and said doubtfully:

"You're not a professional, are you?"

The old man nodded.

"Old man, I am indeed not a professional, but I am definitely better informed than those professionals."

"Oh? Then do you know where the thick earth stone is produced?"

Su Ren knew that this thing was in a mine in Aragon Mountain at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain.

But Su Ren didn't know which mine exactly.

Mount Aragon is not a small mountain either, so it is not easy to find stones with thick soil.

When the old man heard this, he stretched out his withered hands and said with a smile:

"This news is worth two thousand yuan. I'll tell you if you give me the money."

Seeing this, Xiong Da clenched his fists, preparing to fight.

"Hey, you old guy, who knows if what you said is true? You ask for money. What if you give me false news?"

The old man was not afraid of him, but looked at Su Ren calmly and said:

"Old man, my information is absolutely true. I have relied on this bastard for these years, believe it or not."

"Xiong Da, give the old man two thousand yuan."

Xiong Da took out two thousand cash and handed it to the old man.

"Old man, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise I'll beat you up!"

The old man took the money and put it in his pocket without counting it.

Then he glanced at Xiong Da and said:

"It's really rude. Let's learn from your Mr. Su's example."

Hearing this, Su Ren smiled and said:

"Does the old man know me?"

The old man took a puff of cigarette, showed a few big yellow teeth and smiled:

"Who doesn't know you?"

"Old man, I already told you that I am selling information. How can you be convincing if you don't even know me?"

"I actually came close to you on purpose because I saw you all the way away."

Su Ren nodded, believing what he said.

The old man blew his cigarette butt on the electric pole next to him and continued:

"The thick earth stone you are looking for is a diamond-shaped earth-yellow spar, which is only produced within the Aragon Mountains."

"Currently, only No. 3 mines are still there, and the other mines have been completely collected."

"Mine No. 3? Do you have a specific location?"

The old man nodded.

"Of course there is. You walk about 800 meters to the left at the stone monument at the foot of Mount Aragon, and then go straight up 600 meters along the way. The mine there is Mine No. 3."

"But I have to remind you, it's not easy to get into Mine No. 3."

"Why?"

"Because there is something called ice worm in Mine No. 3."

"These things fly in swarms and fly extremely fast. They can instantly freeze people when they touch them. Most people don't dare to provoke these things."

"This is also the reason why the thick earth stones in Mine No. 3 have not been mined out."

"What level is the ice worm?"

"I don't know about this old man. Anyway, this thing is very powerful. People who don't believe in evil have died in Mine No. 3."

Without getting any useful information, Su Ren was too lazy to continue struggling.

Anyway, the ice worm sounds like it's under his control.

"Old man, I have another question. If I want to go to Tianzhu Mountain, is there any safe and fast route?"

When the old man heard this, he stretched out his hand again and said:

"This question costs five thousand yuan."

Xiong Da took out five thousand and handed it to him.

The old man collected the money and said cheerfully:

"It's easy, just find a tour guide."

"Hey, you old fool, you want to charge five thousand yuan?"

Xiong Da was unhappy for a moment.

All his money was given to Su Ren, and he now only has tens of thousands of dollars left in his backpack.

In the past, he would not even look at the money spent like water, but now he would feel distressed for a while if he spent thousands of dollars.

What made him most angry was that he felt that he had been tricked by an ordinary person.

"Look at you, I want you to learn from your young master. You must learn to be calm and calm, so that you can become a qualified follower!"

The old man ignored Xiong Da and continued:

"There are only three tour guides in Jixi City who can go to Tianzhu Mountain. The others are all lies to you."

"Unfortunately, all three of them were hired away yesterday."

"If you want to go to Tianzhu Mountain, wait here for a month and a half for them to come back."

When the old man said this, he looked at Xiong Da.

"Big man, is my news worth five thousand yuan?"

Xiong was speechless during his freshman year.

This news is indeed worth the money. If you don't know the inside story, you will definitely be deceived.

"Old man, if I want to go to Tianzhu Mountain alone, what should I bring? How to get there?"

"What?"

The old man frowned for the first time.

"Young man, do you know how far it is to Tianzhu Mountain?"

"You have to cross vast deserts, swamps and snow-capped mountains."

"There are all kinds of raptors and monsters on the way. The most important thing is that you must find an awakening temple to spend the night before dark."

"You are not familiar with the road, and you can easily get into danger if you go alone, you know?"

Su Ren smiled and said:

"It's okay, I have my plan."

Su Ren couldn't wait for half a month.

The old man shook his head.

"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Since you insist on going, old man, I can give you a map for free."

"Just follow the route marked on the map, but you have to be careful of sandstorms when crossing the desert."

"This stuff will disorient you."

The old man took out a rolled map from his sleeve, handed it to Su Ren and warned him again.

"Be careful under the sand when crossing the desert. The poison-tailed giant scorpions inside are at least level 300 monsters."

"The poison in that thing could kill you in minutes."

"Thank you, old man, for reminding me."

Su Ren looked at the map and put it away.

Just let Cai'er fly towards Tianzhu Mountain at high speed.

This poison-tailed giant scorpion poses no threat to him.

"Xiong Da, you stay in Jixi City and wait for me to come back. Taking you with you will only drag me down."

Su Ren is not afraid of nightmares at night, so there is no need to deliberately look for the Awakening Temple along the way.

If Xiong Da followed him, without the protection of the Awakening Temple, he would definitely die at the hands of the nightmare.

"Yes, sir!"

Xiong Ziran didn't dare to go against Su Ren's words.

"Hey, are you disliked by the big man?"

After the old man finished speaking, he swayed away with his tobacco bag.

"Find a place to stay in the city by yourself, and be careful of the assassins who are chasing you."

After giving instructions, Su Ren walked toward the city gate.
