Marvel's Monster Hunter World

The book continues from the previous chapter.

Jin Siyu drove forward, heading straight to the suburbs.

Fortunately, the university town was originally located at the urban-rural juncture. More than ten miles ahead, you could already see the villages with pink walls and black tiles in the south of the Yangtze River.

Continuing forward, he saw a lonely village. Jin Siyu drove into it, slowed down, and looked for jujube trees along the road.

"If you can't find it on the roadside, drive into the village. After parking the car, we'll go look for it in the fields." Zhang Tianci said.

Jin Siyu nodded, drove the car to the end of the village and stopped, got out of the car and looked around.

An aunt happened to come over, and Jin Siyu stepped forward to inquire and asked: "Aunt, may I ask, are there any wild jujube trees in the fields nearby?"

"Are you buying trees?" The aunt was stunned for a moment, pointed to the north of the village, and said: "There is a jujube forest over there, and later a pig farm was built. Now the pig farm is abandoned, and there are still some jujube trees around..."

"Thank you, aunt, let's go take a look." Zhang Tianci felt that it was useful and immediately expressed his thanks and signaled to Jin Siyu to leave immediately.

After asking about the distance, it turned out that it was not far away, just on a slope more than three miles to the north.

The country roads were inconvenient, so the two abandoned their cars and walked north.

"Tianci, generally speaking, the peach wood sword is used to catch ghosts. Why do you want the jujube sword?" Jin Siyu asked.

"Of course the peach wood sword is used to catch ghosts, but I prepare the jujube wood sword, not to catch ghosts, but to deal with the corpse king." Zhang Tianci explained, and said: "Meeting the corpse king is a very dangerous thing. .Not prepared enough and we could die there."

"It's so dangerous. Let's take more people there the night after tomorrow, right?" Jin Siyu said.

"There are more people. The old ghosts in Taolin Cemetery are not stupid. They will come out and confront our two armies?" Zhang Tianci smiled and said: "When the time comes, they will all run away, and you will never see them again. Tian Xiaohe is gone. So, only the two of us can go, and those old ghosts will come out with the Corpse King."

"Okay... I'll follow your arrangement." Jin Siyu was a little scared, but for Tian Xiaohe, he had no choice but to agree.

As she was talking, the pig farm that Auntie was talking about was already in front of her.

The pig farm is a simple building in the form of a courtyard house, probably due to poor efficiency, and it has already been empty.

On the periphery of the pig farm, you can indeed see sparse jujube trees, but they are not thick, and the largest ones are only as thick as an arm.

"Can these jujube trees be used?" Jin Siyu looked around and asked.

"Yes, and it's very suitable." Zhang Tianci smiled slightly, opened his backpack, and took out a small compass.

Jin Siyu was overjoyed. He watched Zhang Tianci playing with the compass and asked, "What are you doing with the compass?"

"Not every jujube tree can be used. To deal with the Corpse King, I need to strike the jujube trees with thunder." Zhang Tianci looked at the compass and said.

Jin Siyu was stunned again and said, "I've heard of trees struck by lightning, but there are so many jujube trees here, how do you know which one has been struck by lightning?"

"It's very simple. I can attract lightning to strike, right?" Zhang Tianci smiled proudly, looked at the compass again, and continued to look for directions.

Jin Siyu looked up at the cloudless sky and said, "Will there be thunder in this weather?"

"I said, draw the thunder. If the thunder doesn't come, let's draw it over. The Thunder God and the Lightning Mother have a good relationship with me. They will always give me face when I recite a spell later." Zhang Tianci said.

"..." Jin Siyu was dubious, frowning and speechless.

Zhang Tianci held the compass and walked around the pig farm.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Tianci selected a jujube tree and put away the compass.

"Can this tree be used?" Jin Siyu asked.

"Based on the calculation of the heavenly stems and earthly branches, this jujube tree will be at the earthquake position in the Bagua in more than an hour. Earthquake represents thunder, so that's it." Zhang Tianci opened his backpack, took out some things, and began to arrange them.

The first is a small silver kite, which was released into the sky by Zhang Tianci.The kite string is also silver, dragging in the air, it is difficult to find.

It is reasonable to use a kite to attract thunder. Back then, the foreign scientist Franklin did it and succeeded.Jin Siyu watched from the side and nodded secretly.But seeing the cloudless and sunny weather, Jin Siyu had some doubts about Zhang Tianci's success rate.

After the kite flew high into the sky, Zhang Tianci tied the kite string to the selected jujube tree.

Then, Zhang Tianci took out a three-inch long piece of incense stick, lit it and inserted it under the tree. He also burned a paper charm in front of the tree and murmured a mantra in his mouth, seemingly very cautious and pious.

After burning the paper, Zhang Tianci stood up again, looked around, suddenly pointed to the kite in the sky, and continued to chant the mantra, stepping on strange steps like crazy.

Jin Siyu watched from the side, becoming more and more curious and surprised.She really couldn't understand how the young Zhang Tianci could come up with so many routines?

About two minutes later, Zhang Tianci stopped his strange dance, returned to Jin Siyu's side, and said seriously: "The next step is to wait. I have recited a spell for the Thunder God and the Lightning Mother. After they receive the spell, they will send thunder to help me." .”

Jin Siyu naturally didn't believe in the Thunder God and the Lightning Mother, but when he saw Zhang Tianci going to great lengths, he felt a little hopeful and said, "Okay, let's just wait and see if your spell works."

The two took a few steps away and sat on the ground under the shade of a tree.

Jin Siyu was about to say something when the phone rang. It was Zheng Rui.

"Hey, where are you and Zhang Tianci, Dazuo Jin? I have something to discuss with you." Zheng Rui said anxiously over the phone.

Zheng Rui and Jin Siyu, one is a criminal police officer and the other is a forensic doctor, they are not in a superior-subordinate relationship. Just because our work overlaps, we often work together. Therefore, Zheng Rui was also very polite to Jin Siyu, jokingly calling him Jin Dawu Zuo. Forensic doctors, in the past, were just minor officials.

"I'm in the eastern suburbs, working with Zhang Tianci, and I won't be able to come back for a while. Team Zheng, if you need anything, just talk on the phone?" Jin Siyu said.

"I couldn't tell you on the phone where you are, I'll come find you," Zheng Rui said.

"Okay, I'll send you the location on my phone." Jin Siyu hung up the phone and sent his current location coordinates to Zheng Rui.

Zhang Tianci, however, sat aside and looked like it had nothing to do with him. He took out a stack of girls' photos from last night and admired them.

"Look at the beauty?" Jin Siyu came up and started chatting.

"Yes, yes, it's eye-catching." Zhang Tianci raised his head and smiled, then lowered his head and continued to look.

Jin Siyu was speechless, rolled his eyes, picked up his phone again, and browsed through some case information stored in it to kill time.

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly a cool breeze blew.

When Jin Siyu raised his head, he realized that the weather had quietly changed, dark clouds were gradually forming in the surrounding areas, the sky was drooping, and the sun hid in the clouds.

Could it be that this kid really has the ability to communicate with the God of Thunder and the Mother of Lightning?Jin Siyu was surprised and happy, and couldn't help but look at Zhang Tianci again.

"Hi, Jin Siyu, Zhang Tianci!" Zheng Rui was running over on the field road to the south, waving and shouting.

"You came very quickly, Captain Zheng?" Jin Siyu stood up and smiled slightly.

"Our efficiency ranks first in the entire system!" Zheng Rui grinned, looked at Zhang Tianci, and asked, "Zhang Tianci, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Tianci was about to speak, but suddenly his color changed, he covered his nose and jumped up, pointed his finger at Zheng Rui and shouted: "Oh shit... Captain Zheng, you didn't take a shower last night!"

Zheng Rui's face twitched, and he couldn't laugh or cry. He pointed to the sky and said, "I swear, I took a shower last night. If I tell a lie, there will be thunder and lightning!"

Click-click——

At this moment, a bolt of lightning flashed across the clouds, followed by a thunder that shook the heavens and the earth.

The jujube tree behind Zheng Rui trembled suddenly, and the leaves on the branches were chopped and danced in the air, rustling!
