"Hey, what are you two still doing here? Meiling let us all go there!" He Yuqi's appearance broke the awkward atmosphere between the two.

"What happened?" Wu Boxue asked.

"I don't know either. It seems that because Meiling cured the people here, the old man and the patriarch decided to let us see their sacred tree." He Yuqi said.

"Okay, right away!" Ling Xuan smiled and looked back at Wu Boxue: "Student Wu, hurry up! Otherwise, sister Meiling will complain about you again!"

Ling Xuan didn't look back, but He Yuqi could see that her expression was very stiff: "What's wrong with you?"

"No, it's just a breakup."

"Huh? Break up? Why didn't I know you were together?" Everyone knew that He Yuqi's words were obviously false. Based on his relationship with Yichen and the others, how could he not know about Ling Xuan and Wu Boxue thing.However, it happened that his words made Ling Xuan feel enlightened.

"Thank you!"

"If you want to thank me, let the boss increase my salary!"

Soon, the three of them returned to the village to gather with Yichen and the others.However, the atmosphere in the village seemed quite strange. Among them was a male clansman who was about middle-aged, whom Ling Xuan had never seen before. I saw that the others were respectful to him, and I believed that he should be the clan leader here.

In this primitive tribal relationship, the status of the priest is often higher than that of the patriarch, so it is not difficult to see that the clansmen are very obedient to all the orders of the old priest, including the patriarch.Just like the other tribesmen, he followed behind the bamboo frame on which the old priest rode, and walked to what they called the 'sacred tree'.

"What... what's going on?" Facing the huge pit in front of them and the collapsed tree, Yichen and the others couldn't react for a while.

"A while ago, I don't know where some monsters came from, and they destroyed the sacred tree." The old priest said sadly.

"We're still late." Yichen said plainly.

"But what is hidden in this tree?" Wu Boxue tried hard to recall the memory that Meiling let them watch before, but he didn't seem to find any images about the giant tree.At least, he assures that he never saw images of the remnants digging or planting trees during their migration.

"No, they don't know the meaning of this tree's existence at all. In the dense forest, Wangtian tree is like a landmark, because its tall branches can directly shine on the sunlight, so people are used to observing their The branches and leaves are stretched to identify the direction," Mei Ling explained.

"Then the trees are dead now, don't we lose our direction?" Wu Boxue said.

"Who said it's dead?" Meiling rolled her eyes at Wu Boxue.

"This...isn't it all split in half?"

"Stupid! This is a twin Wangtian tree with the same root! Look carefully, the part that was split is the conjoined part of the two trees! They just separated the trunk, and did not hurt the inside of the trunk. Even the tree The roots are also very healthy." Then, Meiling turned around and spoke a few words to the old man in local language, after confirming that the tree had not been moved after the collapse, she immediately asked the other clansmen to prepare as thick a rope as possible, and gathered all the men here .

"Oh my god! Twin Wangtian trees? Before I set off, I checked the information about this rainforest belt. Wangtian trees are a unique species here, and most of them grow in primitive valley rainforests and mountain rainforests. They mostly grow in patches. , to form an independent community. A single ordinary Wangtian tree is already a first-class protected plant in the country, this twin... ".Ling Xuan's forehead was covered with black lines, and she even seemed to be able to see the picture of being wanted.

"Don't worry, I think they can prove that this tree was not destroyed by us." He Yuqi seemed to understand Ling Xuan's thoughts, and pointed to the tribe behind him with a wry smile.

Before long, all the active men of the whole clan had arrived.Meiling first ordered them to noose the self-woven rope firmly to the trunk of the big tree, and then asked the rest of the people to dig the original tree hole wider and deeper.

After everything was ready, she asked everyone to pull hard together, trying to move the giant tree to its original position.It's just that the giant tree is more than ten meters high, even if the whole clan tried their best, they couldn't move it a little bit.

After trying a few times, Meiling still secretly chanted the spell, driving the vines to 'move' the giant tree back to its original position, and then tightly wrapped the tree ring around the trunk, so that the giant tree returned to its appearance before it collapsed.

The people in the tribe didn't notice that it was Meiling who was exercising divine power, but for them, who were supremely theocratic, they didn't need to bother to explain all this incredible happening.Because they have collectively followed the old priests and kowtowed to their 'sacred tree'.

"Are you sure the tree is still alive?" Wu Boxue asked Meiling beside him in a low voice.

"Nonsense! It is alive! Plants are different from humans and animals. As long as they have enough time and space, they can live well."

"Now that the tree has been replanted, can you see anything?"

"It's terrible to be uneducated!" Meiling patted Wu Boxue's head angrily: "Look, isn't the branch and leaves at the top of the treetop obviously a little denser, while the other side is relatively sparse?"

"Well, it seems so."

"Get out!" Meiling kicked over, turned to Yichen and the others and said, "As Ling Xuan said when entering the forest, follow the direction of the sun. The Wangtian tree is taller than ordinary forest trees, and its branches and leaves can better reflect the direction of the sun. The direction where the sun shines, so if we go in that direction, we should find something."

At this time, no one found that the tribe had completed the prostration ceremony.The old priest originally wanted to go forward to thank Meiling, although he couldn't understand Meiling's conversation, but seeing them keep looking towards the valley to the west and comparing them to the old map from time to time, the old priest finally couldn't help but interrupt.

"Do you want to go to the ghost cave?" Mei Ling was very puzzled by the old priest's words.

"Ghost cave?"

"That's right, through this forest, there is a long rocky mountain at the end of the west, which is the entrance of the ghost cave. According to legend, there is a giant dragon entrenched in the cave. It didn’t come out anymore, and gradually we didn’t dare to approach it.”

"Giant dragon, ghost cave. It seems our destination is not far away." Mei Ling thanked the old priest with a smile.As a reward for the treatment, the old priest gave Yichen and the others a lot of homemade poisonous arrows and anesthetics, and told them that there are often many ghosts and beasts wandering in the west forest, and there will be thunder from time to time, making them careful.

Yichen and the others didn't understand the old priest's words at first, and they were not too worried about ghosts and beasts. After all, abnormal humans accounted for more than half of this small group of people. Nothing terrible at all.

However, the only thing they care about is the "sky thunder" that the old priest said. In the densely forested rainforest, even if it falls only "occasionally", it is enough for them to eat and walk around.
