The old man's eyes seemed to reveal a reminiscent expression as he began to narrate in a low voice.
"Do you think I'm a local from this village? Heh, I ended up staying here out of necessity."
That was thirty years ago. Back then, I was still quite young and had some reputation in the worldly society. With my own abilities, I roamed the world and achieved many great things.
Later, I accidentally heard that Konglao Mountain was an ancient site for Immortals' cultivation and that it hid the Immortal's Treasure. So I gathered a group of brothers, determined to make a big score.
My brothers and I crossed mountains and rivers. We built roads when encountering mountains and bridges when facing rivers. We subdued demons and slayed monsters. It took us more than half a month to find the legendary Konglao Mountain. We thought we were about to strike it rich, only to get trapped in a small forest at the foot of the mountain, unable to find our way out."
