"Wait, calm down."

Karl sighed in his heart when he saw everyone's tense appearance, his face became solemn, and he said sternly: "Don't forget the bones under the tree! Do you really think that is the legendary ginseng fruit? Don't think too simply!"

This sharp shout made several people calm down their agitated emotions. They looked at the white bones on the digital display and shuddered suddenly.

"Just now... I was too emotional, BOSS." Julie looked at Karl apologetically: "I'm sorry."

"Not just Julie, but also me." Abel reached out and rubbed his temples: "I was also impulsive..."

"We can't blame ourselves for this."

Mr. Dao said quietly, putting his pipe deep into his mouth and taking a deep puff: "I just came to my senses. I was too excited just now. This is not normal."

"In view of everyone here, even if you see this kind of fruit that can bring the possibility of immortality, it will not be as obvious as it just showed. We are all people who can laugh and stab in the back, how can we do something so rough?

A naked act?”

There was a smile in his eyes when he said this. Everyone was choked by these words, but they didn't know how to answer.

"So I think it's the problem with the tree... it amplifies our emotions, just like Mr. Abel's illusion." Mr. Dao said and glanced at Abel, then turned to Karl: "Of course, in the end, it's still

I want to praise Mr. Carr."

"All of us lost our composure at that time. Only Mr. Karl was sober and stopped us by drinking. He is indeed one of the best figures in the world."

Karl's expression remained unchanged: "The old man is ridiculous. Even without me, you will recover quickly. However, you must be careful when approaching that ginseng fruit tree."

Several people nodded in unison, and when they looked at the tree, apart from the fleeting greed, there was also a look of vigilance in their eyes.

They walked slowly over, and the closer they got, the more they realized how exaggerated the pile of bones on the digital display was! Wolf, snake, ape, leopard...

Every creature they had seen today had their bones lying under the tree.

And this piece of white bones was spread to the grassland behind and spread to the vicinity of the stream. One can imagine the tragedy of the past.

When they came to the fruit tree, several people looked up at the three fruits hanging above, and they couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Even though they knew that this might be false, it was not the legendary effect of ginseng fruit, and it might not even have any effect.

What positive effects.

But there is still a trace of hope and expectation in my heart, what if?

What if it has that effect? ​​Even if it only extends life by ten or twenty years.

With such emotions and the deterrence of the bones, everyone saw the fruit not far away, but they did not leave the Netherworld Road under their feet.

Just as they were hesitating, the breeze blew by, the leaves rustled, and the fruits on the tree, hugging each other like a curled up baby, slowly opened their bodies.

"It smells so good..." Uncle Dao's nose twitched and he sighed. As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of Master Dao and Karl changed. They took steps at the same time and shouted at the same time: "Let's go!"

After the words fell, the two people quickly rushed out and ran towards the front.

Although Abel and others didn't know the reason, their long-standing trust made them follow closely.

Just when they ran out a few dozen meters, the surrounding grass, the woods in the distance, the sky above... a series of roaring sounds suddenly sounded. Scarlet, green, pitch black... all kinds of different colors here.

The grass, in the sky, and the woods in the distance stood out.

This scene has been waiting for a long time. The beasts that had been lurking for a long time moved together and rushed towards the ginseng fruit tree.

As for the fungus creatures growing together with the grass in the distance, holes were opened in the soil below them, and small black insects came out one after another, densely crawling towards the front, and they also wanted a share of the pie!

Next to the ginseng fruit tree, it has become a duel ground for these predators!

…………………………………………

willow?

Jiang Xian looked at the scene in front of him with a hint of doubt, and then suddenly realized: "It's not a willow tree, it just looks like it. Its leaves are densely serrated, and its branches are thicker. It looks very lethal."

The appearance of this tree reminded him of the shadow cellar, where all kinds of strange plants made them miserable and posed a greater threat to them than the ferocious beasts inside.

"Eh? Mr. Jiang, look here."

Fang Yunye curiously pointed to the mural in front of him: "It seems that the tree is bearing fruit, but this fruit is so strange. This size and outline...are completely different from ordinary fruits."

Jiang Xian came over, took one look and concentrated, "This outline looks a bit like a baby curled up..."

Baby?Tree?

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Ginseng fruit tree!"

"Is there really a ginseng fruit tree in this world?" Fang Yunye's face showed a bit of disbelief, but thinking of Yun Mengze and Longhu Mountain's experience, he patted his head and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Also

It’s really like myths and legends come true.”

"This may be the prototype of the ginseng fruit tree in Journey to the West." Jiang Xian said with some uncertainty. The fruit that grows into a baby-like shape is so unusual. Does it really exist in this world?

"If it really exists, it must be something like the people here's belief in the sacred tree."

"You can tell just from the size of the murals here, and from the broken murals we went to earlier, that a wall can depict many things, even different types of scenes. But here, every wall is a tree.

The tree as subject.”

Fang Yunye nodded. Although he didn't understand art or religious beliefs, he still understood the proportions of paintings.

They continued to look towards the back of the painting, and within a few steps they saw countless birds and animals surrounding the ginseng fruit tree. They were wary of each other and roared at each other, but all their eyes and attention were on

On the fruit tree.

The curled-up fruit also stretched out its body, and its limbs were more obvious than before.

"This means that the fruit has matured and attracted a large number of wild beasts... It seems to have the meaning of the mature treasures of heaven and earth described in legendary biographies." Jiang Xian looked at it carefully and stepped towards the next mural.

This one is simpler. The beasts are fighting, corpses are strewn around the ginseng fruit tree, and the earth is flooded with blood.

And in this constant fighting, the ripe fruits become more and more bright and delicate.

Just as Jiang Xian was about to leave, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He retracted his legs and carefully looked at the scene in front of him. He kept patrolling and watching. After a moment, he suddenly realized: Under the ginseng fruit tree, some branches were hanging down.

It fell into the bones and into the pool of blood.

"Is this... blood-sucking? Using these beasts and birds as food?"

He walked towards the next wall. The murals on it were more tragic, with more corpses and blood. Likewise, the ginseng fruit tree had more hanging branches, and even some leaves and branches had red veins.

Like a blood-sucking demon.

"It's really scary."

After sighing with emotion, he looked at the mural at the back. In the middle of the fight, a ripe ginseng fruit was snatched away by a bird and flew away quickly.

During its flight, the different strength of its claws actually caused some of the fruit to break, and large amounts of juice dripped down.

There was a piece of fungus and some small bugs right where the drop fell.

The juice killed many fungi and bugs, but some tenacious ones survived. The surviving bugs and fungi gained tenacious vitality, and under the immersion in the juice, they also changed and had their properties.

changes in.

From the very beginning, the relationship between food and diners has transformed into a symbiotic one.

Bugs multiply under the fungi. When the bugs grow up, they become one with the fungi and can even leave the place with the fungi. After the bugs have fully grown, the bodies of the fungi become more transparent and harder to detect.

.

I see……

Sudden realization appeared in Jiang Xian's eyes. The invisible hand that slapped Song Feng before, and the invisible demon floating in mid-air, must have been it.

It's just that the combination of fungi and bugs revealed in this mural is obviously different from the invisible ghosts that attacked them. It seems that it has undergone new changes over the years.

He continued to look at the mural at the back, and the picture returned to the ginseng fruit tree.

The branches and leaves of the entire tree had turned bright red at this time, and all the surrounding beasts had retreated, and some were even trembling with their fur growing.

Um!?

Jiang Xian looked at this mural, and his eyes became more serious. The painting covered a wide area, not only around the ginseng fruit trees, but even the rock walls in the distance were revealed, including the Netherworld dozens of meters away.

road.

"This road...these stone sculptures..."

Fang Yunye was a little surprised and turned around and said, "Mr. Jiang, could it be said that the one in this painting is the real passage leading to the treasure house of the ancient Dian Kingdom?"

"I don't know." Jiang Xian shook his head and his eyes narrowed slightly: "Perhaps, there are two different passages that lead to the inside of the treasure place. If that is the case... the project to build this place back then may have been bigger than we thought.

It’s even bigger.”

After saying that, he continued to look at the mural behind him, but the content of this mural was completely beyond his expectation.

There was only a raging fire burning on it, and a huge portal could be vaguely seen in the fire. As for other beasts, the rest of the vegetation and roads had all disappeared.

Flame is the main subject of this painting.

What does this mean?

His brows were knitted into the Chinese character "Sichuan". The front part was clearly in a realistic style, but the back part turned into a fighter style?

"Mr. Jiang, look here!" Fang Yunye pointed to the stone in front of him: "There are carvings here!"

Jiang Xian perked up and immediately walked over, only to see a line of small words engraved on the stone slab:

Ginseng fruit tree, right or wrong? Immortality is achieved, my right or wrong?

There are only seven words at the signature——
Chapter completed!
