After hearing this, I started to get curious again.
However, as long as it wasn't something as dangerous as going down to the grave and accompanying them to find a tree, I didn't take it to heart.
However, when we arrived at Yichuan, I found Dong Wan'er and Xu Man immediately starting to buy some dry rations, mountain climbing equipment, some simple sleeping bags, and a tent for camping in the wilderness.
"Did you really come here just to find a tree? not here to find the whereabouts of Zhang Zi Kong and the others? "
"Don't worry!" As long as we can find that tree, we don't have to look for them anymore. When that happens, they'll come look for us themselves! "
Xu Man was full of confidence when he said this. Even Dong Wan'er had a proud and pampered expression on her face!
Although I do not know what is going on in my heart, I can only let out a chuckle at this kind of weird behavior of theirs.
Since he had the money now, he might as well follow them out and play around! Besides, our team has Dong Wan'er who is very powerful, and Hua Zi who is a police officer. Even if he doesn't have a gun, he should be fine in the forest.
The only regret was that I thought that the old monk would tell me some important things and give me some extremely dangerous tasks that I couldn't avoid. After returning to the rented house, I immediately called a taxi to take Zhang Shimin back. If I had known that this trip was only a hike, I would have called her!
After preparing some survival equipment, the next morning Xu Man called a taxi to take us to the wilderness. After that, a group of people headed straight to the famous mountain range of our Tian Chao Empire, Six Pang Mountain!
Along the way, the big board was like a monkey returning to the mountain. It was so excited that I didn't want it at all. Only Hua Zi seemed to have smelled something and leaned towards me as if nothing had happened.
"Yes, they came this time to look for a tree. They said that as long as we can find that tree, we can wait for the other party to come find us."
"Tree?"
Hua Zi looked at me in surprise for a long time before frowning and said, "Brother Zhou, have you ever heard of the Karakorum Divine Tree? "A tree of death which is guarded by a candle dragon, how deep is it buried?"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but frown. After hearing what he said, I did indeed recall a miraculous tree that I saw in a novel. However, the danger there was too great to be considered good!
Who said we were looking for the Karakorum Divine Tree! "This is not Mount Kunlun, did you read too many novels?"
It was unknown when our conversation was heard by Dong Wan'er, but when Hua Zi mentioned the Kunlun Divine Tree, she immediately approached us.
Seeing that I was still frowning, she immediately covered her mouth and started to laugh.
"Look at you! Having experienced so many bizarre things, was it still this little bit of courage? Rest assured! What we're looking for this time is a tree that normally grows on the ground. It's just that this tree is much more different than any other tree! Furthermore, there is something hidden in that tree that many people have dreamed of for their whole lives! "
After hearing this, my heart calmed down. At the same time, a wave of suspicion arose in my heart.
What secrets can a tree that normally grows on the ground hide? Could it be that the tree had become a spirit? Or could it be that the old monk had already comprehended Zhou Yi's 64 divinities?
One must know that Zhuge Liang could already help Liu Xuande conquer the world by only comprehending Zhou Yi's first thirty-two divinities. Liu Bowen could only comprehend the latter thirty-two, and was rumored to be able to deduce the changes in the world after five hundred years. Could it be that the old monk had already become human and was able to deduce the changes in the world's structure from the rings on the tree?
But no matter what, as long as it was on the ground. No matter what, he would not have to face the dark and oppressive environment, and the frightening things that came from the darkness.
As soon as we relaxed, time passed quickly. Although we were in the midst of a forest that was so difficult to walk in, with Big Board and Hua Zi's giggle, we soon had our first night.
After finding a relatively spacious and leeward area, we immediately set up our tents.
However, just as we were about to start a fire and make some dry rations to eat, the large board suddenly pulled out a pile of metal originals from the backpack and started to piece them together. When he finished assembling those things, we astonishingly discovered that it was a simple single-barreled fire rod!
Furthermore, after assembling and assembling the Fire Rod, that fellow even took out an iron can of gunpowder and a bag of steel balls from his backpack!
"Hehehehe!" How could he eat these kinds of junk food in this kind of place! I'll get some game back for you guys! "
With that, Dazhi stood up and shot a look at Hua Zi, who also ran out of the forest excitedly following behind Dazhi.
In the open air, unlike in that gloomy tomb, each of them had a gun outside their fire blunderbuss. Even if they met a ferocious beast, the one that would suffer would be that beast, so I didn't have to worry about any danger.
Not long after, we heard a dull gunshot coming from the depths of the forest. It was only a sound before it died down. They must have gotten something good.
However, after almost an hour, there were still no signs of the two of them coming back.
Xu Man looked towards the direction the two of them left in and shot me a questioning gaze. "Did something happen?"
Hearing this, I also had some doubts in my heart.
Logically speaking, if they were to encounter some danger, they should have been alerted by the spear. However, other than the sound of the Fire Rod, there wasn't the sound of a second shot. If something had happened to them, why hadn't the two of them returned even after so long?
Just as I was feeling puzzled, I suddenly heard another gunshot coming from the forest. It wasn't far from us this time! After the gunshot, more rapid gunshots rang out!
"This is bad!" Something may have happened! "
The moment I heard the gunshot, I immediately pulled out my handgun, turned on a flashlight and ran in the direction of the gunshot! As for Xu Man and Dong Wan'er, they took out their weapons and chased after me!
However, as we approached the source of the gunshot, we heard a curse coming from Bighead. At the same time, another muffled gunshot reverberated through the forest!
