Mu Qingli circled the banyan tree twice, actually starting to communicate with it.
"Brother Banyan Tree! Any news?" Mu Qingli used his mental power to communicate with the big banyan tree.
"Of course there are! I am the oldest king tree in this area. I know so many flowers, plants, trees, cats and dogs!" The big banyan tree answered proudly.
Mu Qingli smiled secretly. These flowers, plants and trees are so simply guarding the earth. What reason do we have not to protect them?
"Tell me, Brother Banyan Tree!" Mu Qingli looked at the corner of the street in deep thought, his mental focus always on the big banyan tree.
"That day, the old woman in green took her child and walked west from here. After leaving the town, she didn't take the main road, but instead walked through the fields and into the mountains to the west!"
"Did no one in town see her? Did no one recognize the child? Why did they let her walk away from the village with the child so brazenly?"
"Some people saw it, but no one recognized it. Everyone who saw it became an idiot at that moment!"
"...It seems that this old woman also has a certain amount of mental power!" Mu Qingli muttered secretly.
Then she thought about it and realized that if she wanted to control someone's mind, it would be possible, but she would not do that easily because her mental power was so strong that it could turn people into fools.
And that old woman can make people's thinking slow down, or even lose their thinking, and then return to normal. It seems that her mental power is only in the early stage, level one. After the powerful mental power controls a person's thinking, even if the mental power is withdrawn, it will attach to the other person's brain nerves, turning the person into an idiot or a vegetable.
"She went to the West Mountain? Does she live in the mountains?"
"It's not in the mountains, it's in a small village on the other side of the mountains. That village is deep in the mountains, isolated from the outside world, with poor mountains and bad water, and many bad people! There's not even enough food to eat! That old woman seems to have a high prestige! If you go there..." The banyan tree didn't say anything more.
Mu Qingli could imagine that if the village was united, they would not be able to find out anything and would not be able to find the child if they went there. If they made any mistakes, they might even be besieged.
"What happened to those children?" Mu Qingli asked again.
"Although I've suffered a bit, I'm still alive and well! I haven't been sold! However, someone in the village is building a brick house, and the whole village is gathered there all day long! The red bricks and tiles were provided by that old woman!"
"So, we still have a chance to sneak into the village! Don't those people work?"
"Some go to work, but many don't. Maybe they're one of the old woman's gang!"
"Yeah! I understand! I should find a chance to go check out the situation in that village at night!"
"You mean, on the other side of West Mountain? Do we have to go over West Mountain?"
"Yes! There is a small path through the West Mountain hidden in the cliffs. Otherwise, it would take ten days or half a month to walk around the West Mountain!"
After asking this, Mu Qingli finally understood. For detailed information, they could go to Xishan to ask. There were so many flowers, plants and trees there that they could find their way to the door of the human traffickers.
Mu Qingli stood there in a daze. Zhou Tao, Sun Hai, and Director Liu and his wife stood behind her and looked at her for some unknown reason. When Zhou Tao saw that she came to her senses, he walked over.
"Mu Zhiqing, have you found anything?" Zhou Tao looked at Mu Qingli and asked.
"The child is in the mountains!" Mu Qingli said without thinking.
“???” Everyone was confused.
"Mu Zhiqing, are you saying that my son is in the mountains?" Director Liu asked excitedly.
He didn't even ask Mu Qingli how he knew it, because as the director of the town's supply and marketing cooperative, he often went to the county and city, and he also had relatives in high positions. Naturally, he had heard of some supernatural powers. Therefore, he knew that there were some things that he shouldn't ask about. As long as he could find his son back, he would be grateful.
"Yes! Yes!" Mu Qingli also looked at them strangely, full of confusion. Aren't they curious about how I knew it?
"Aren't you curious?" Mu Qingli asked the question regardless of what she was thinking.
"I'm not curious! Although there are only some legends circulating among the people, the people in our Haiguo still know something! Don't worry, we will keep it a secret!" Zhou Tao promised seriously and looked at the three of them at the same time.
"We must keep this a secret!"
"I won't say anything!"
"I just want my son back!"
Several people hurriedly expressed their opinions with solemn oaths, and they wanted to take out their hearts and let the sun and the moon examine them.
"What are you afraid of?" Mu Qingli couldn't help but wonder when she saw how cautious they were.
"Mu Zhiqing, we know you're an expert from that place, and we'd be very grateful if you could help us!"
"You know that place too?" Mu Qingli asked in surprise.
"The older generation all knows it and often tells us. We also have heard it a little bit. In the past, those immortals and masters often walked around in the world and often did some good deeds. Later, for some reason, they disappeared. Nowadays, those who walk around in the world are extremely rare..." Zhou Tao talked freely and told what he knew.
Afterwards, Mu Qingli asked some more questions about the so-called gods.
Zhou Tao repeated what he had heard, and three people beside him added to his comments.
Mu Qingli almost laughed after hearing this. Those so-called gods are no different from magicians!
For example, being able to make flowers grow in the palm of one's hand, conjure up small animals out of thin air, turn good food into insects, pick leaves to hurt people, shoot an arrow through a target from a hundred paces away, and having superb martial arts skills are all rumors, and they have not seen them with their own eyes.
What a joke! Who dares to offend this kind of person? In a matter of minutes, an ordinary person will disappear, or become an idiot or fool! That is not someone they can easily encounter. Now, meeting Mu Qingli, they are all proud and excited.
