I am a living immortal.

Su Mu didn't care about the villagers' looks.

Walking on the country road, the old goat was very steady, which attracted a lot of people to watch. Of course, they mainly came to watch Su Mu. He was dressed like a gangster, and with his handsome face, it was easy for him to gain people's favor.

Soon someone came up to talk. It was an old man with his sleeves rolled up. The mud on his trouser legs was still wet. It seemed that he had just come out of the fields.

The accent has a hint of rural accent: "Hey young man, where are you from?"

"I'm from Yuannan."

"Yuannan? That's a bit far." A strange look flashed across the old man's eyes.

But judging by the outfit, it shouldn't be wrong.

"Then please go to the village and have some tea first."

Huh? What's wrong with this old man? Why does he want to take me to the village?

Looking at Su Mu's confused expression.

The old man was also a little confused.

"Old man, you must have recognized the wrong person. I was just passing by."

The old man waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Sorry, sorry! Young man, I thought I came to the village to get rid of the evil!"

"Destroy?"

"Oh, yes, young man, you don't know, do you see that mountain?" The old man pointed to a mountain range shrouded in mist not far away, which seemed to be very wide.

"That's Dazhuang Mountain. We and the surrounding villages have relied on it for generations. Dazhuang Mountain is a famous medicinal herb warehouse in Huguan County. Many rare medicinal herbs come from there. During the busy farming season, we work in the fields, but during the slack season, several villages around us go up the mountain to collect herbs. Our lives are thriving."

“But it started from the year before last.”

"Somehow a huge blind bear has appeared on Dazhuang Mountain. Going up the mountain to collect herbs is no longer an option, and even picking up firewood has become a chore."

"Then what will you do?" Su Mu was a qualified listener and would make some comments from time to time.

"Yeah, that's right! Although every household saved some money by collecting herbs in the mountains before, it's not a good idea to just sit back and enjoy the savings. Now we can only collect firewood outside."

"That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that it's troublesome for us to go to the county."

"Many roads pass through Dazhuang Mountain, but they are too dangerous to travel on. We are afraid of encountering that giant bear. We can only take a detour. The journey that originally took several hours will take three or four days."

"This is already the third year. I thought it would be like this. Money is not as important as life."

"But as luck would have it, a few months ago, flooding on the shores of Xunyang Lake caused a shortage of medicinal herbs. If we can't get some herbs from Dazhuang Mountain this year, Huguan County will be left with no medicine."

"Have you ever been in there?" Su Mu asked.

The old man sighed helplessly and said, "Go, of course you can go. We organized two teams to go into the mountains a while ago, but only three or four people escaped and the rest fell into the mouths of bears."

"Those who managed to return had nightmares and were obviously terrified."

"What did we hear amidst the nonsense? A bear that was over ten feet tall." There was some fear in the old man's eyes.

"But the county magistrate has already issued an order. These bears must be eliminated no matter what. We, the surrounding villages, and the county have all raised 500 taels of silver. Whoever can eliminate this giant bear will receive the money."

After looking at Su Mu's age and face, the old man hesitated for a while before reminding him, "Young Master, please don't get involved. I'm just chatting with you. Don't look at the money. This bear might be a spirit. Don't lose your life."

Hearing the old man's story, Su Mu frowned.

"I'm afraid this bear has really become powerful, ruling the mountain like a king. He's truly a scourge."

At this moment, the sound of galloping horses came from behind Su Mu.

Looking back, I saw a few men on horseback. They were dressed in leather, with long swords and daggers on their waists and bows and arrows on their backs. They were obviously experienced hunters.

The middle-aged man in the lead tightened the reins and stopped his horse. He glanced at Su Mu and fixed his gaze on the old man and asked, "Old man, is this Dongqu Village ahead?"

"Yes, this is Dongqu Village. We three warriors are here to get rid of the evil. Please follow me quickly."

As he said this, the old man put on a smiling face and left with the few people.

Judging from their facial features, these people are more reliable than Su Mu. Among these three people, in addition to the middle-aged man in the lead, there is also a young man and an old man. The old man has sharp eyes like an eagle.

The three men passed by Su Mu. Although they didn't say anything to her face, Su Mu noticed the young man's contemptuous eyes and whispers.

"Tsk, you with skinny arms and legs, dare to join in the fun."

Su Mu looked at her strong arms and found that she didn't have thin arms and legs.

However, he didn't seem as strong as the man just now, but even without using spiritual energy, Su Mu could kill the young man with one punch relying on his physical fitness.

Su Mu was not angry at the young man's words.

The ant laughs at the elephant out of ignorance.

Of course, he still had to join in the fun, otherwise he would have no money.

Su Mu was a greedy guy. After buying a house, he spent all the money he had left on food.

I always put a few pieces of beef in my bowl of noodles.

There is a lot of chicken, duck, fish and meat, and occasionally we cook a special meal for ourselves, and the money is spent like water.

If we go to the state capital, the money will be spent even faster.

Su Mu would not put herself in a difficult position, so isn't this just like someone bringing a pillow to her when she's sleepy?

Five hundred taels, this is a huge sum of money.

Of course, the result of the large number is fierce competition. Su Mu slowly rode a sheep and followed the people in front to Dongqu Village. It can be seen that this village is richer than Yuannan. The houses are all renovated. Although the clothes of each household are not gorgeous, they are well-fitting and neat.

The village chief was even more exaggerated.

He was wearing gold and silver jewelry, and had a wealthy figure, like a local rich man. Following him were several strong young men. From the calluses on their hands, one could tell that they were martial artists.

This Dazhuang Mountain is really rich.

But this is a bigger problem. He can sit on such a throne and still remain unmoved for three years without setting foot on it. If it weren't for the shortage of medicinal materials, there might not be such an invitation to heroes from all over the world.

It's either a saint or a cost. The former is impossible, so it's most likely the latter. It seems that the bear problem in Dazhuang Mountain is not that simple.

Obviously, Su Mu is not the only smart person here. If he can think of it, everyone here can think of it.

Although the three men dressed as hunters were not tactful, it did not mean they were stupid. When they saw the village chief, their expressions changed.

The village chief seemed not to notice the change in expression and still smiled as he invited them into the house.

When the old man saw Su Mu following him, he frowned and said, "Young man, why are you here too?"

"Ahahaha, thank you for the reminder, old man. However, I'm short of money, so I came here to join in the fun."
