"Wait, calm down."

Carl looked at the tense appearance of everyone and sighed in his heart, his face was solemn, and he said sharply: "Don't forget the white bones under the tree!" Do you really think that's the legendary ginseng fruit? Don't think it's too simple! ”

This loud shout calmed down the agitated emotions of several people, and they looked at the white bones that were visible, and shivered coldly.

"Just now...... I'm overly emotionally charged boss. Julie looked at Carl apologetically, "I'm sorry. ”

"It's not just Julie, it's me." Abel reached out and rubbed his temple: "I'm impulsive too......"

"We can't blame ourselves for this."

The old man said faintly, his cigarette pouch went deep into his mouth, and he took a hard puff: "I just came back to my senses, and I was too excited just now." This is not normal. ”

"With the city government of all of you here, even if you see this kind of fruit that can bring the possibility of immortality, it will not be as obvious as it was just now. Everyone is a person who can stab a knife in the back with a smile, how can he do such a rough and naked behavior? ”

When he said this, there was a smile in his eyes, and everyone choked on this, but they did not know how to answer.

"So I think it's the tree's problem...... It amplifies our emotions, like Mr. Abel's illusion. The old man glanced at Abel as he spoke, and then turned to Karl: "Of course, in the final analysis, I still have to praise Mr. Karl." ”

"All of us lost our cool at the time, except for Mr. Karl, who came to his senses and stopped us. He is one of the best figures in the world. ”

Karl's face remained unchanged: "The old man praised it falsely, even without me, you will recover quickly." However, you must be careful when approaching the ginseng fruit tree. ”

Several people nodded in unison, and when they looked at the tree, there was a look of wariness in their eyes, in addition to a flash of greed.

They walked slowly past, and the closer they got closer, the more they realized how exaggerated the pile of white bones was! Wolves, snakes, apes, leopards......

But all the creatures they had seen today had bones lying under that tree.

And this white bone also spread to the grass behind and spread to the vicinity of the stream, which can be imagined how tragic it once was.

Coming to the vicinity of the fruit tree, several people looked up at the three fruits hanging on it, and they couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Even if they know that it may be false, it is not the effect of the legendary ginseng fruit, and it may not even have any positive effect.

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

What if it had that effect? Even if it can only extend its life for more than ten or twenty years.

With such emotions in their arms, coupled with the deterrence of the bones, everyone saw the fruits not far away, but they did not leave the netherworld path under their feet.

Just as they hesitated, the breeze blew, the leaves rustled, and the fruit of the huddled like a curled baby slowly opened its body.

"What a fragrant smell...... Third Uncle Dao's nose twitched, and he sighed, as soon as his words fell, the faces of Old Man Dao and Carl changed in unison, and the two of them took steps at the same time, and shouted at the same time: "Hurry up!" ”

After the words fell, the two of them rushed out and ran forward.

Although Abel and the others didn't know the reason, the trust they had always had made them follow closely.

Just as they ran out a few dozen meters, the surrounding grass, the trees in the distance, and the high altitude above ...... Suddenly there was a roar and a whoop. Scarlet, turquoise, pitch-black...... All sorts of colors were evident in the grass, in the sky, and in the woods in the distance.

This scene has been waiting for a long time, and the herd of beasts that have been lurking for a long time moved in unison, rushing towards the ginseng fruit tree.

And the fungus creatures that grow together with the grass in the distance, the soil below them breaks holes one after another, and one by one the pitch-black insects come out and crawl densely ahead, and they also want a piece of the pie!

Next to the ginseng fruit tree, it has become a dueling ground for this group of predators!

…………………………………………

Willow?

Jiang Xian looked at the picture in front of him and showed a trace of doubt, and then suddenly revealed: "It's not a willow tree, it just looks like it." Its leaves are densely serrated and its branches are thicker, making it look very lethal. ”

The appearance of the tree reminded him of the Shadow Cellar, where the strange plants made them miserable, and in some ways threatened them more than the beasts inside.

"Huh? Mr. Jiang, look here. ”

Fang Yunye pointed curiously at the mural in front of him: "It seems that the tree is bearing fruit, but this fruit is so strange, this volume, this outline...... It's completely different from ordinary fruits. ”

Jiang Xian walked over, glanced at it, and then stared, "This silhouette is a little like a baby curled up together......"

Infant? Tree?

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

"Is there really a ginseng 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: "It's really myths and legends that have come to life." ”

"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 is really too different, does it really exist in this world?

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

"You can see from the size of the murals here, and you can see from the broken murals we went to earlier, that a wall can depict many things, even different types of different scenes. But here, each wall is dominated by a tree. ”

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

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

And the curled fruit also stretched out its body, and its limbs were more obvious than before.

"This is when the fruit is ripe and attracts a large number of beasts...... There are some legendary biographies that tell the meaning of the maturity of the heavenly and earthly treasures. Jiang Xian took a closer look and walked to the next mural.

This one is even simpler, the beasts are fighting to make the corpses around the ginseng fruit tree strewn all over the field, and the blood floods the earth.

And in this constant fighting, the ripe fruit became more and more vivid, more and more delicate.

Jiang Xian was just about to leave, but suddenly felt wrong, he retracted his legs, looked at the picture in front of him carefully with his eyes, kept patrolling, kept watching, and only after a moment did he suddenly show a sudden color: under the ginseng fruit tree, some branches fell down, fell into the bones, and fell into a pool of blood.

"It's ...... Vampire? Feed on these beasts and birds? ”

He walked to the next wall, where the frescoes were even more brutal, with more corpses and blood, and the same ginseng tree had more branches hanging down, and even some of the leaves and branches had red veins.

It's like a blood-sucking demon.

"It's horrible."

After sighing with emotion, he looked at the mural behind him, and finally in the middle of the fight, a ripe ginseng fruit was captured by a bird and flew quickly into the distance.

And in the process of flying, the strength of its claws was different, and the fruit broke a little, and a large amount of juice dripped down.

There was exactly a patch of fungus and some small worms at the place where the drip fell.

The juice killed a lot of fungi and bugs, but there were also some tenacious ones who survived. The surviving insects and fungi gained tenacious vitality, and under the soaking of that juice, they also changed, changed in nature.

From the beginning of the relationship between food and diners, it has changed to a symbiotic situation.

The insects multiply under the fungus, and when the insect grows up, it becomes one with the fungus, and can even leave the place with the fungus, and the fungus becomes more transparent and imperceptible after the insect grows completely.

I see......

Jiang Xian's eyes suddenly appeared, the invisible hand that slapped Song Feng before, the invisible demon floating in mid-air, should be it.

It's just that the combination of fungi and insects revealed in this mural is obviously different from the invisible ghosts that attack them, and I think there have been new changes over the years.

He continued to look at the mural behind him, and the scene returned to the ginseng fruit tree.

The branches and leaves of the entire tree had turned bright red at this time, and all the fierce beasts around them had retreated, and even some of them were still blowing up their hair and trembling.

Well!?

Jiang Xian looked at this mural, his eyes became more serious, the picture of this painting is very wide, not only around the ginseng fruit tree, but even the distant rock wall is revealed, naturally including the netherworld road dozens of meters away.

"This way...... These stone carvings ......"

Fang Yunye was a little surprised, turned his head and said, "Mr. Jiang, could it be that what is inside this painting is the real passage to the treasure land of the ancient Dian Kingdom?" ”

"I don't know." Jiang Xian shook his head, his eyes slightly condensed: "Perhaps, there are two different passages that lead to the inside of the treasure land, if this is the case...... The project to build this place was probably bigger than we thought. ”

With that, he continued to look at the mural behind him, but the content of the mural was completely unexpected.

There was only a raging fire burning above, and in the midst of the fire, a huge portal could be faintly seen, and as for the other beasts, the rest of the grass and trees and roads were all gone.

The flame is the main body of the painting.

What does that mean?

His eyebrows were twisted into a Sichuan character, the front was obviously a realistic style, but how did it become a sharp edge in the back?

"Mr. Jiang, look here!" Fang Yunye opened his mouth and pointed to the stone in front of him: "There is an inscription here!" ”

Jiang Xian's spirits perked up, and he immediately walked over, only to see a line of small characters engraved on the stone slab:

Ginseng fruit tree, yes? Evil yes? Immortality attained, I yes, Phantom yes?

There are only seven words at the check-in place -

Sloppy Taoist Zhang Sanfeng.
