Ye Congwen looked back at Yu Yueyue, who had her eyes closed tightly, and couldn't help but think proudly:
No one knows the secret place of my treasure! If I take you in two circles, you will lose your way. There are many rivers and criss-crossing roads in this secret place. I, a native, still get lost occasionally, let alone someone like her.
A purdah girl who never leaves the house.
What's more, in order to confuse her perception, I deliberately went around a few more tidal flats with fast currents. Unexpectedly, the woman was so frightened that she closed her eyes, saving a lot of thought.
"Yu Meiren, why are you closing your eyes? It would be a shame not to see the beautiful scenery?"
Ye Congwen reminded her carelessly, and at the same time tried to test whether she might be pretending to be stupid and deliberately driving the boat rickety.
"I don't want to watch, please row your boat properly and don't be distracted by talking to me!"
Yu Yueyue saw that Ye Congwen was still thinking about joking. It was true that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water! If he accidentally capsized the boat, the current was so fast that both of them would die.
"Oh." Ye Congwen glanced at the pale Yu Yueyue, biting his teeth lightly, closing his pink lips tightly, occasionally squinting his eyes and quickly closing them. He held the rope on his chest tightly with both hands, obviously scared.
In the extreme, it's just that "landlubbers" are too stubborn to speak out.
After about half an hour, the wooden boat gradually sailed into the gentle river, surrounded by birds and flowers, and a quiet and peaceful atmosphere appeared before their eyes.
Yu Yueyue opened her eyes boldly, looked at the environment carefully, and asked timidly:
"Are we at the treasure place?"
"Well, it's almost over, there are still two hours at most."
Two hours is too fast? With the speed you are running at, you may have to cover dozens of miles of waterway. I looked up at the sky, and the sun was already slanting in the sky. It must be eight o'clock. So this guy is at least
I have been rowing for three hours, and the heat is rising from my body. It can be seen that my physical strength is exhausted, so I can’t bear to say:
"You've been rowing for three hours. Why don't you take a rest and start again later? Unfortunately, I can't row, otherwise I could help you."
"It's a gentle road now. It doesn't take much effort to paddle. If you want to learn, I can teach you. You can learn it in an hour."
"Really? Then I'll give it a try!"
Yu Yueyue was obviously very interested, but it was human nature to sit stupidly at the stern of the boat for three or four hours without wanting to move.
Ye Congwen stopped paddling and waited quietly for Yu Yueyue to come forward and learn to row.
While teaching her the rowing posture, he taught her some key tips and tricks. With Ye Congwen, a master balancing the boat behind, Yu Yueyue learned it very quickly.
Only half an hour later, Yu Yueyue was able to set sail alone, but the speed was not very fast. However, the water surface was very wide at this time. Yu Yueyue carefully controlled the direction of the wooden boat and drove smoothly. However, she was too nervous and her back leaked.
The sweat has soaked my clothes.
Fortunately, she wore a tight-fitting outfit today, with black clothes, black pants and a black ponytail, and she looked heroic.
Seeing Yu Yueyue having a great time playing with great interest, Ye Congwen really didn't want to spoil people's enjoyment, so he let Yu Yueyue row for half an hour before he grabbed the oars and ran towards the destination at full speed.
It wasn't until around ten o'clock that the two of them came to Baoshan, where Ye Congwen had last visited. Yu Yueyue saw the beautiful peaks of this mountain surrounded by water from a distance, and vaguely felt that this mountain was extraordinary and must be at least two thousand meters high.
, I'm afraid it will take no less than ten miles to run around in a circle. If I look for it one by one, I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain anything today.
But leaves

This guy Congwen has firm eyes and is full of confidence. He is obviously very confident. We want to see what is unique about his family’s ancestral secrets...
Ye Congwen tied up the cable of the wooden boat and checked it several times before walking up the mountain. While thinking hard about the countermeasures:
If you want to get a place as an apprentice of the Demon Hunting Guard in the Yu Mansion, you have to come up with a way to convince Yu Yueyue - yes, it just so happens that the old patriarch has been imparting his knowledge on Feng Shui these days! I don't even understand the things that the gods are talking about,
Just use it to fool Yu Yueyue.
Ye Congwen handed the basket of tools to Yu Yueyue to carry on his back. He held a compass like a Feng Shui master and muttered:
"The sky and the earth are infinite, the universe borrows the law, surrounds the yin and embraces the yang, the tiger sits on the dragon's plate..."
The more Yu Yueyue listened, the more unreliable it became. Is this treasure hunting or digging a grave for someone, a compass and a sutra reciter?
However, seeing that Ye Congwen was extremely focused, he didn't want to disturb him, so he had to wait quietly behind him with his backpack on his back.
About three minutes later, Ye Congwen put away the compass. With a wave of his hands, he walked towards the forest where he had marked the last time and gave instructions:
"Follow me closely, don't get lost, there are poisonous snakes in this forest."
Hearing the poisonous snake, Yu Yueyue was a little scared for no reason. She followed closely and asked in a low voice:
"What you were blabbering about just now sounds like Feng Shui."
"Hey! You cover a wide range of topics! You can hear all this.
However, I advise you not to try to inquire about my Ye Clan’s secret knowledge. The rules of the Ye Clan stipulate that inheritance is passed from male to female. Unless you become a member of our Ye Clan, no matter who you are or how prominent your family background is, even if you escape to the ends of the world, we will
We will also send out top experts to kill people and silence them.”
"It sounds like it's real, but you could dig out some elixir and let me see it!
Do you think I’m stupid for trying to dig out the elixir with just a compass and a bamboo board?”
Yu Yueyue saw that Ye Congwen's habit of speaking without restraint was repeated again, so she couldn't help but retort.
"Wrong! What do you, a layman, know? The compass is used to determine the direction. Whether there is any elixir in the soil depends on the fortune teller.
But it’s just me who’s stupid, why should I explain it so clearly to you, an outsider? Gods and Buddhas bless you, ancestors, don’t be offended, I almost got tricked by this woman!”
Ye Congwen ran up the mountain. Yu Yueyue was so angry that she rolled her eyes. This guy was obviously talking nonsense. He ran away if he couldn't stop it, so he could only climb up behind him.
After climbing for about 20 to 30 minutes, the two came to a dark place. A giant tree hundreds of meters high stood in the sky, with lush branches and huge leaves, blocking out all the sunlight. It was already noon.
At that time, the sun was blazing in the sky, but not a ray of sunlight penetrated through. It was so dark that it was as if you couldn't see your fingers.
Yu Yueyue was not as nimble as Ye Congwen, not to mention that she was carrying a backpack, so she hurried in and followed her. After taking a few steps, she suddenly realized something was wrong. One second, the sun was shining brightly, and the next, she fell into the ground.
Like a cave.
Not only was it completely dark and nothing could be seen, but even the temperature was much lower. There were gusts of wind inside, and combined with Ye Congwen's weird behavior before, he was so scared that he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
"Ye Congwen! Where are you?"
"It's so dark inside that I can't see you!"
"Stop teasing me, otherwise I'll fall out with you!"
Yu Yueyue walked while talking, but no one answered. She felt a thump in her heart and wanted to walk back. Unexpectedly, it was pitch black ahead.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, it was also dark behind, and I lost my way for a while, not knowing what to do.
"Take out the luminous pearl from my bag."
Ye Congwen's voice sounded probably less than ten meters away from him.
"Thank God for the blessings of gods and Buddhas. Don't be offended, ancestors. This guy is still around!"
Yu Yueyue consoled herself in her heart. After hearing the voice, her anxious heart finally calmed down.
Following Ye Congwen's instructions, Yu Yueyue rummaged in the backpack for a long time and finally found a small wooden box. When she opened the box, a faint blue light slowly emerged. Through the blue light, Yu Yueyue secretly observed the scene in the woods.
It was vast and empty inside, and the terrain was flat. Apart from a thick layer of fallen leaves, there was nothing else on the ground, not even weeds.
Suddenly his eyes turned to a person's face, looking at him quietly, with cold eyes and white teeth. Yu Yueyue was so frightened that she screamed, threw away the night pearl and wanted to run out.
"What's the ghost's name? It takes you a long time to find a luminous pearl!"
Ye Congwen grabbed Yu Yueyue's hand and cursed angrily.
Yu Yueyue heard the voice and recognized the person, knowing that it was Ye Congwen standing next to her. This time, she no longer cared about the image. She hugged Ye Congwen's arm and wanted to get her head into it, while patting Ye Congwen's
Chest begged for mercy:
"Stop teasing me, okay? I'll do whatever you say from now on, okay? I'm almost scared out of my mind by you!"
Ye Congwen was confused. He didn't know where he had offended her, but this was not the time to play around with her.
It has only been a day since I came here, but this giant tree suddenly sprouted green leaves overnight, blocking out all the sunlight. Even the markings I made last time have disappeared.
It can be said to be extremely weird! Is it really haunted by monsters?
I took a look at the surrounding area with the luminous pearl, and found that it was all covered with thick fallen leaves. Could it be that this strange tree lost all its dead leaves overnight and became covered with green leaves?
Fortunately, he always brought the Luminous Pearl with him, mainly because some elixirs grew too deep and often had to dig holes to investigate, so Ye Congwen deceived the luminous pearl that he often played with from the old patriarch, so that he would have to stay up late at night to read the funeral.
Reasons given by the scriptures. Otherwise, I am afraid today will be in vain.
"You hold the luminous pearl for me, and I'll use the hoe to explore the situation."
Yu Yueyue had calmed down at this time. With Ye Congwen standing in front of him alive, and the sun hanging high in the sky, there shouldn't be anything weird or ghostly happening. However, for the sake of safety, she still followed him.
Relatively safe.
Ye Congwen picked up a small hoe and dug up the thick fallen leaves on the ground, dug out the soil layer hard, picked up a piece of soil and brought it to Ye Mingzhu. He took a closer look and saw that it was still yellow, white and black soil.
"The location is right, why has it changed so much?"
Yu Yueyue saw Ye Congwen's strange question and asked the reason in confusion.
"When I came yesterday, this big tree had withered yellow leaves, but all of them turned into green leaves overnight. Do you think it's strange?"
"It's not like you've mistaken the place. The peaks here all look very similar. They all look exactly the same to me."
Ye Congwen didn't make any answer. He reached out and pulled out a branch with a red thread among the fallen leaves in front of him. He gave it to Yu Yueyue and asked her to look at it carefully while whispering:
"I wrapped the red rope on this branch yesterday, around two o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, it was as bright as day and could be seen everywhere."
