Chapter 12 (Thunder Tree)

"Drive!" the carriage sped along the rough path, the wheels clattering against the gravel on the ground. Mo Changjiu sat in the front of the car with the one-eyed boss, the one-eyed boss skillfully drove the carriage, even so, it was still very dangerous to drive on such a trail, if it weren't for the urgency of time, the one-eyed boss would not have suggested taking this path.

"How long will it take!" Mo Chang asked.

"It's coming!!" said the One-Eyed Boss, then waved his whip again, "Ride!"

Time goes back two hours......

"Eat slowly, eat slowly. The one-eyed boss said to the calf with concern.

Mo Changjiu and Yuan Yuanyuan didn't expect that the one-eyed boss would have a younger brother, and such a big man actually revealed a soft side.

"I haven't had enough for days!" said the calf hurriedly, and then shoved large chunks of meat into his mouth.

Mo Chang glanced at the calf and found that he really looked a little like the one-eyed boss, and asked, "Maverick, didn't you say that something big happened before?

The calf stopped suddenly, and tears the size of beans flowed down his eyes: "Brother! The thunder tree in the village has withered!"

The one-eyed boss's slightly calm face suddenly became a little distorted, and he said loudly: "What! How could the thunder tree wither, I have never heard of it!"

"I don't know, but the village told me to come out to you!—you're the most capable man in the village!" cried the calf.

Yuan Yuanxuan and Mo Changchang suddenly understood, and they didn't intend to expose the one-eyed boss, the one-eyed boss was suddenly very anxious, and ran outside in a hurry.

Yuan Yuan said, "One-eyed dragon, where are you going!"

"Back to the village!"

Time comes back to the present. The carriage was still speeding non-stop, relying on the one-eyed boss's driving skills to safely pass one corner after another, and the dangerous road was chosen in order to get back to the village faster, so on this road, the one-eyed boss could not be sloppy.

Suddenly, a figure passed by the side of the carriage, and with that unique costume, Mo Changjiu immediately recognized him, it was the man with six swords on his back!

"Why did that weirdo go this way?" Mo Changjiu couldn't help but burst out of his mouth.

"What did you say?" asked the one-eyed boss, looking ahead with his eyes.

"It's nothing...... "Mo Chang smiled, "You concentrate on driving!"

"There's a cliff break ahead, so Miss and Maverick are sitting!" said the One-Eyed Boss.

Mo Changchang lifted the curtain and said to Yuan Yuan: "From now on, you must sit tight, try to hurry!"

"I watched how the car swayed, it was dangerous. Yuan said with a worried expression.

"Don't worry, what are you afraid of my brother driving!" said the calf.

As the carriage got closer and closer to the cliff, the one-eyed boss slapped the horse's ass hard, and the carriage increased in speed again, and the horse galloped towards the cliff.

When the horse was still half a step from the cliff, he suddenly let out a roar, kicked his hind feet, and flew into the air, and in less than a second, the carriage had landed safely on the opposite side.

Sure enough, it's a good horse! Mo Changchang admired in his heart.

Jumping over the cliff, the scenery has changed dramatically, the two sides of the cliff form a stark contrast, and as the carriage continues to gallop forward, the desert area gradually appears, and several sand dunes of different sizes appear in front of them.

After an hour and a half of driving, it was getting late, and the trail of the wheels of the carriage dragged for a long time in the desert area, where there was hardly any life in sight, only a few dejected cacti.

"Haven't you arrived yet?" Mo said, glancing at the desert for a long time.

"Look! it's almost there!" said the one-eyed boss excitedly.

A green dot is getting closer and starting to grow larger, and as the carriage approaches, a desert oasis appears. It wasn't until he arrived at the gate of the village that Mo Changfang believed that this place could really live in people.

As soon as I stepped into the village gate, with the cry of the calf, the people of the village came out to greet him.

"Big cow!" an old woman on crutches walked out of the crowd.

"Mother!" the one-eyed boss greeted her as soon as he saw her.

"Smack!" The old woman saw the one-eyed boss come to her, and directly slapped him, and cried: "You ...... in your eyes Is there still this mother!"

"Mother!" the one-eyed boss suddenly cried, and the two hugged each other tightly.

Yuan Yuan was moved by this scene and burst into tears. Mo Changchang felt uncomfortable in his heart, he was an orphan, and he couldn't understand this feeling of being with his relatives, so he turned his face away.

Turning his face, he saw that the trees and leaves here seemed to be withering, and the people in the village seemed to be tired, and even from the lips of some people, it could be seen that they were very thirsty, and what was even more terrifying was that the village seemed to be almost all old people.

"Can we take a look at the Thunder Tree first?" Mo Chang said to the One-Eyed Boss.

"Oh, yes, go!" said the One-Eyed Boss.

The three of them came to a dry well, which, judging from its appearance, had not long dried up. Next to the dry well was a shriveled tree trunk, which was so huge that it seemed so high that it looked like a daunting stem from the next night. Strangely enough, the huge trunk of the tree was black and smooth, and there was not a single leaf on the branches.

"This is the Thunder Tree?" asked Yuan.

"How can this be...... The one-eyed boss was also stunned when he saw the tree, and said excitedly: "It wasn't like this before!

"What does this tree have to do with the village?" Mo Chang was very surprised to see such a tall tree, he really didn't expect that there was such a tall tree in the world.

"It's this tree that has kept the village alive to this day!" said the One-Eyed Boss.

"Survival?" Mo asked again.

"Do you know why this tree is called the Thunder Tree? This is a tree that can thunder and attract rain, as long as there is this tree, even if it is arid, it can come to life!" said the One-Eyed Boss excitedly.

"So how can we bring this tree back to life?" Mojiu asked.

"Yes, let's go to the village chief! He's the oldest man in the village, he must know!" said the one-eyed boss, "I'll take you!"
