Chapter 43 Tree Nodules
The ancient tree of Fan Sang was not only luxuriant, but also had extremely thick roots, and Qiu Ze simply sat on the bare roots of the tree on the side, thinking about these doubts one by one.
Zi Zhuang is physically strong, it is extremely inconvenient to climb up and down, seeing Qiu Ze sit down, he is happy, happy, sitting next to Qiu Ze, anyway, Zi Chengzi made a deal with the task of following Qiu Ze.
Something must have gone wrong, otherwise it would be impossible for that master to take only six Dragon Flame Fruits.
Akisawa frowned, he looked back and confirmed, behind him, two ancient trees were tightly entwined and twisted into knots, but no matter how you looked at it, they were two ancient trees instead of one.
Could it be that the Fansang Ancient Tree needs two to be combined in order to produce the Dragon Flame Fruit?
Qiu Ze thought of this, but was quickly vetoed by him, although everything in the world, everything is possible, but although these two trees are entangled, they can still be clearly seen to be two trees, indicating that they are not entangled at the beginning, otherwise they can't be seen at all, but they will think that they are one tree, judging from the outline of the two ancient trees, the time they are entangled together, compared to the age of the tree, is much shorter, and they are all entangled when they grow to a very large time.
Qiu Ze carefully inspected the junction of the two ancient trees entwined, he was knowledgeable, from the perspective of the growth situation, the two trees were entwined from the beginning to the present, at most two thousand years, but the Fan Sang ancient tree was extinct five thousand years ago, indicating that the age of these two trees is definitely higher than five thousand years, so it is impossible for the Fan Sang ancient tree to be entangled together to bear fruit, and the reason why they are entangled together is likely to be because the area in the abyss is not large, and they are entangled together to save space.
The ancient Fan Sang tree matures in 1,000 years, blooms in 300 years, and bears fruit in 700 years.
Since there is no need to be entangled to bear fruit, the question is back to square one, why did that master only take away six Dragon Flame Fruits?
Throwing aside all the impossibilities, Qiu Ze secretly thought, could it be that these two ancient trees are not the legendary Fansang ancient trees, perhaps, the head of the house was mistaken, and it is possible that he recognized these two unknown trees as Fansang ancient trees.
Time flies, a few hours have passed, and Zicheng and Zixian, who were looking for the Dragon Flame Fruit on the tree, found nothing, so they could only come to the ground to rest.
They had only been on the Nanhan Mountain for a short time, and they had not yet begun their formal cultivation, and after climbing on the branches for a few hours, they were already exhausted and panting.
Zizhuang asked, "How is it?"
Zixian was the first to shake his head, his petite body came and went freely in the canopy, and he rummaged through almost every leaf, but he didn't find any trace of Long Yanguo.
"I can't find it, I searched for it with Senior Brother Zicheng, and I didn't see the shadow of Long Yanguo. ”
Zicheng also sighed, he turned his head to look at Qiu Ze, who was frowning, and said slowly: "Rest first, and then go up to find it when you have rested enough." ”
The meaning of the three of them is obvious, as long as Qiu Ze can't find it, then they won't lose, and Qiu Ze doesn't seem to have any intention of going up the tree to find Long Yanguo, his two eyes are staring blankly ahead, and he doesn't know what he is thinking.
Time passed little by little, Zicheng and Zixian rested enough, and climbed to the tree to find the dragon flame fruit, and after a few hours, they climbed down to rest, and repeated it several times, but they were too tired.
At the beginning, Qiu Ze still had some scruples, but the other three didn't find Long Yanguo, so he slowly put his mind at ease, integrated all the suspicions, and then eliminated them one by one.
————
"Zicheng, it's been two days, why don't we go out......"
Zizhuang whispered, and Zixian on the side also echoed: "Yes, senior brother, it's been two days, and we still haven't found anything...... Presumably, this tree has not yet produced dragon flame fruit. ”
In the past two days, Zicheng and Zixian don't know how many times they have climbed on the ancient tree, and they haven't seen the shadow of the dragon flame fruit at all.
Zi was the oldest, he fell silent, and glanced at Qiu Ze again, in the past two days, Qiu Ze had never climbed a tree once, only occasionally paced back and forth around the ancient tree, and then sat on the root of the tree in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
Could it be that he knew that his chances of victory were not good, so he didn't go looking for the Dragon Yan Fruit?
Zicheng thought so in his heart, and then nodded secretly, indeed, the three of them are together, Qiu Ze can't beat them, even if he gets the Dragon Yan Fruit, he will be taken away by them.
Looking at the sky that was not yet dark, Zicheng shook his head and said: "We have died a few of our fellow doors, if we go back empty-handed, lest we be punished again, let's look for it again, and when it gets dark, it's not too late to go out." ”
The other two nodded, Zizhuang guarded Qiuze, and the other two climbed the ancient tree again.
In the past two days, Qiu Ze has been thinking about the doubts he has sorted out, and will eliminate them one by one after he is fully confirmed, and when he has eliminated most of the doubts, he can't help but think, isn't this ancient tree ready to blossom and bear fruit?
There is another suspicion that he has not been able to solve.
Xin Yibo once told him that in the Cold Moon Cave, there were two predecessors buried, but they did not find the tomb along the way, and the only possibility was that the two predecessors were not buried outside, but buried in the abyss.
But Qiu Ze circled the ancient tree and surveyed the abyss several times, but no tomb was found, the abyss was steep, and there could be no mechanism or tomb on the mountain wall.
Akisawa turned his head and looked at the two ancient trees that were entangled, he had thought that maybe the two seniors were buried under the roots, but when he saw that the roots were growing out of the cracks in the stone, he rejected the idea, because if this was the case, then there must be traces of excavation in the cracks.
"Only the last one is possible....."
Akisawa stood up and strode over to the ancient tree.
Zizhuang guarded Qiu Ze, and after seeing that he didn't move, he was drowsy for a long time, and he was sleeping soundly on the root of the tree at this time, and he didn't notice Qiu Ze's actions.
Qiu Ze circled around the ancient tree a few times, and just as he was about to give up, he finally made a discovery.
I saw that at the junction of the two ancient trees, there was a palm-sized tree nodule, this tree nodule, Qiu Ze had seen it before, but he didn't care, it was normal to have a tree nodule on the tree, but when I saw it again, I had a different idea.
Because the rest of the trunk of the ancient tree is not smooth, but it is extremely compact, except for the two ancient trees in the abyss, there are no other living creatures, and the beasts in the Cold Moon Cave cannot enter, and a tree nodule appears on the tree, which is really a bit unusual.
Qiu Ze followed the vines and slowly climbed to the place where there was a tree nodule, he took a closer look, and was immediately overjoyed, it turned out that you are here!
