The witches and wizards made way for Chen Zhi in front of them. The old lamp boy who turned into stone immediately changed back when he saw that there was no danger ahead. He staggered over and led the way.
Chen Zhi and Mr. Bao followed him and walked into the Xiqi King City. When Chen Zhi passed by the Great Witch Crow who had been shot down on the ground, he saw that the Great Witch's body smelled of burning, and his chest was still breathing slightly.
.
Chen Zhi followed Mr. Bao into the city with a calm expression as if he hadn't seen it.
"Is this the power of your Jiang family? It is indeed well-deserved." After they walked into Xiqi King City for a while, Master Bao said to Chen Zhi with a faint smile.
"It was really dangerous just now, but it seems that you were right to come to the library this time. You really benefited a lot from it."
"That's right!" Chen Zhi responded to Mr. Bao with a smile,
"At least I won't be like before, always running around for my life. It will be easier for us to do tasks in the future..."
The two people were talking and continued to follow the old lamp boy forward, but before they walked a few steps, they saw a young woman standing in the darkness in the middle of the corridor ahead.
The woman was very imposing, holding a long knife casually in her hand. Because the light in the city was dim, her face could not be seen clearly, but through the meager light in the hand of the lamp boy, the shocking knife marks on her shoulders could still be seen.
"Female King of Hell—Ji Ying!" Chen Zhi recognized the figure that had always existed in his memory from a distance, "How could this woman who kills ghosts suddenly come here?"
Chen Zhi had always been wary of this woman. He stopped and thought to himself, but did not take the initiative to talk to her.
Mr. Bao next to him stepped forward, glanced at the knife in Ji Ying's hand, and asked calmly,
"Is there anything wrong with you coming here?"
"The leader asked me to come. He said there might be some minor dispute here and asked me to come over and see if the young clan leader was injured."
The woman raised the corners of her mouth slightly, smiled disdainfully, and stared at Chen Zhi with ice-like eyes.
"However, it seems that you have solved it yourself."
"Ha! Little patriarch, are you older than me? This woman is so arrogant!" Chen Zhi was made uncomfortable by Ji Ying's tone.
"If there's nothing else, we'll leave first."
Chen Zhi said these words in a cold tone and signaled the old lamp boy to continue leading the way. He and Mr. Bao continued to walk forward. When they passed by the woman, Chen Zhi and her were shoulder to shoulder.
Then Ji Ying's voice suddenly sounded, "Wait!".
Chen Zhi was stopped by Ji Ying's voice and immediately turned his head alertly. He saw Ji Ying's face less than half a meter away from him. Under the light, that face could be seen clearly.
At this time, Chen Zhicai clearly saw the face of this female King of Hell. It was really an amazingly beautiful face. Even three thousand peach blossoms and colorful clouds could not compare to her beauty. Even the Tianshan Snow Lotus, Ice Muscle and Jade Bones could not match her beauty.
It cannot be described as pure and beautiful, it is truly stunning.
Chen Zhi is not a saint who turns a blind eye to beauty, but the memories of beautiful women in the past were too terrifying for him. Bai Qian is the best example, which makes Chen Zhi feel defensive and resistant to these beautiful women in his heart.
Psychology. Sometimes he really couldn't understand why these frightening women all had such beautiful faces.
"Do you have anything else?" Chen Zhi looked directly into the face of the female King of Hell and said.
"I heard, are you going to the underworld?" Ji Ying's voice was slightly hoarse, as if she was on topic, like a glass dropped to the ground, without any slop.
"If you want to go to the underworld, help me see what the legendary Hell of Knife Mountain is like. Someone said that I will definitely go there after I die."
"okay!"
Chen Zhi nodded, then took two steps back, walked around where Ji Ying was standing, and continued to walk forward. But Ji Ying stood there motionless, and kept looking at him from a distance, with such a sinister look.
The deep aura made Chen Zhi feel chilled along the way.
"She seems to like you quite a lot," Mr. Bao said jokingly to Chen Zhi after they finally walked into the tunnel, "but you'd better stay away from her. I heard that not many people who are familiar with her survive.
"
They walked all the way out of the tunnel, and Langtu had been waiting for them in the yard for a long time.
Chen Zhi told Lang Tu that he would need to go to the library frequently during this period, and asked him to send a car to pick him up at eight o'clock every morning.
Lang Tu nodded in agreement, his attitude seemed to be more respectful than before.
In this way, Chen Zhi and Mr. Bao got in the car together and returned to City Z. When they arrived at the Refuge Pavilion, it was not dark yet, so Chen Zhi immediately called Fat Wei and Ghost Sword.
After everyone arrived, everyone gathered together in the dark room. Chen Zhi took out the scroll that recorded the "Fusang Sacred Tree" from the library, opened it for everyone to see, and translated the sacred text on it for everyone.
, pointing to the root of the sacred tree picture on the scroll, and said.
"Here are the roots of the Fusang Sacred Tree. These roots can lead to the ghost city of the underworld, so they are called ghost trees. The underworld boat made from the ghost wood can walk on the Wangchuan River. If you want to go to the underworld, you must use this material.
"
"So this is the ghost tree! It's so damn magical," Fat Wei said, wanting to touch the image on the scroll.
"Don't touch it randomly," Chen Zhi hurriedly pushed away Fat Wei's hand, "This scroll is thousands of years old, and it will easily break if you touch it randomly. After we all read it today, I will send it back to the library tomorrow.
.”
"Tch, you are really petty. Now you are protecting your Jiang family's things." Fat Wei muttered, lowered his body and looked at the picture carefully, and said after a moment.
"I said, if this big sacred hibiscus tree is really as mysterious as the people blowing here, it must have disappeared long ago. But I have heard one thing. Since ancient times, the bigger the tree, the bigger the tree.
The deeper the roots are, the more they will penetrate into the soil. Even after some trees have died for many years, their roots will still remain in the soil. This is called trees leaving roots and leaving leaves returning to their roots. If you ask me, let’s go to Rizhao.
Dig and see, maybe you can really dig out this damn ghost tree!"
"Okay! You know quite a lot! It seems that you are more educated on the inside than on the outside." Chen Zhi smiled at Fat Wei and continued,
"Indeed, this is what I thought of when I saw the information about the Fuso Sacred Tree. Even if the Fuso Sacred Tree really grew in Shandong, there would have been no traces of it. The tree rotted into soil, and the leaves and flowers turned into mud. There are no traces.
It's impossible.
However, for large trees, if their roots are inserted very deep into the ground, they will become petrified and become as hard as fossils, but they can be preserved. For example, those hundreds of millions of years old trees in Jiuzhaigou Peacock Sea,
This is the case.
So we started from Rizhao, Shandong, and explored the underground soil structure according to the legendary location. Maybe we can really dig out this sacred tree that was 100 million years ago.
