At 11 o'clock at noon, Xu Ji checked into the Chenla Resort Hotel in Siem Reap.
Xu Ji doesn't know exactly what level it is.
But the facilities are very luxurious.
The place where he stayed was a courtyard with its own spa, treatment room, outdoor private swimming pool, restaurant and card room.
Very Khmer!
Whether it's decoration, room or something else.
Two personal butlers were also arranged to serve him.
However, Xu Ji thought that he might just rest here for a few hours.
In the afternoon, I will take a helicopter and go directly to the ghost tree area to conduct surveys. I will send away the two service butlers on the pretext of wanting to be quiet.
The courtyard door was also closed.
Then I soaked in the swimming pool and swam happily.
"Speaking of which!" After swimming twice, Xu Ji suddenly remembered: "Actually, I can build a larger outdoor swimming pool at my 'home' in Tancheng City in the future!"
"Anyway, I have unlimited cards!"
“It’s not bad to spend a little money to improve your enjoyment!”
"It's such a happy decision!"
After taking a bath for a while, Xu Ji put on his bathrobe and walked indoors.
Can't soak any longer!
The direct sunlight caused the temperature of Qi, blood and meridians in his body to rise even if he was not practicing!
Xu Ji was a little scared. If he soaked for an hour, he would probably boil the water in the swimming pool.
So, I quickly put on my bathrobe, returned to my room, sat cross-legged on the bed with ancient Khmer characteristics, breathed in, and regulated my qi and blood.
This breathing process lasted for more than half an hour.
It wasn't until his stomach growled that Xu Ji realized that it was almost 12 o'clock.
So I picked up the phone and called the front desk.
Before Xu Ji could speak his hesitant bird language, the person on the other end had already started greeting him in proficient Central Plains dialect.
"Dear guest, hello, this is Chenla International Resort Hotel in the Kingdom of Khmer. Do you need anything?"
Xu Ji was stunned for a moment and mumbled: "How does he know that I am from the Central Plains?"
The other party seemed to have heard it and said very respectfully: "Hello distinguished guest, the entire Chenla International Resort Hotel has been serving you only since eight o'clock this morning!"
Xu Ji slapped his mouth.
"Is this the legendary private venue?" he thought.
It seems like this kind of treatment is only seen on TV news.
And people who can do such things are basically either upstarts or big shots.
so……
"Am I really a big shot?" He sighed and started ordering from the menu on the bedside table.
…
What Xu Ji won't know is.
Today, the entire Chenla International Resort Hotel is actually a military security zone.
The Khmer Kingdom mobilized an entire army special operations regiment to clean the area around the hotel.
The cordon was stretched to ten kilometers away.
The reason why it is not longer is simply because ten kilometers away is the Khmer Science, Education and Culture Branch of the United Nations Organization.
Because of the face of the United Nations Organization, we did not pull him over.
Even so, Siem Reap is still under semi-martial law today.
Of course, Southern Oil Company paid some price for this.
Including but not limited to, another donation of fifty T64s to the Khmer military (obtained from Eastern Europe, basically at scrap iron prices, however, Southern Petroleum Company invited people from Norinco to renovate and replace these old tanks
Electronic equipment is enough for the Khmer. Anyway, they don’t expect to use it to fight with others. It can be deployed on the border and used as a mobile fort. If a strong enemy invades, the Khmer Kingdom
The first reaction was to immediately hug the thigh of the big brother from the north! If you dare to hit me, shake him!), and at the same time, he was a matchmaker for the Khmer Kingdom and facilitated the Cosmos Bank to provide an infrastructure loan of 2 billion dollars to build hydropower stations.
It also promised to increase investment in Khmer, mainly in oil and gas exploration in coastal areas.
Therefore, when Li Xiaofeng got off the plane, followed the tip and headed straight to the Chenla International Resort Hotel, his motorcade was stopped by the Siem Reap military police.
Even if Li Xiaofeng directly identified himself, the answer he got was: "Sorry, sir, the front is our country's military warning area. No one is allowed to enter without the approval of our country's PM. Violation of general law will be dealt with!"
Li Xiaofeng even activated all his connections in Khmer.
The answer I got was still the same!
The Khmer Kingdom has always had a firm stance on major issues.
In desperation, Li Xiaofeng had no choice but to use an international phone number to directly contact the domestic and Kaka offices. Finally, he called the Khmer Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Silla ambassador to Khmer contacted the Khmer Prime Minister.
Even so, relevant Khmer parties are constantly kicking the ball.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that this is an internal matter and please consult the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Home Affairs.
The Prime Minister said that this is the task of the military.
The military said that this is a military mission strictly carried out in accordance with the order of the Prime Minister. No one is allowed to enter without an order from the Prime Minister or a pass issued by the Ministry of Interior!
I went to see the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister said that this matter has been handed over to the Ministry of the Interior with full authority to handle it.
Please contact the Ministry of Interior!
I called the Ministry of Home Affairs and was told that the minister was on vacation and was temporarily refusing to accept all calls. Please contact the Prime Minister or the Ministry of Defense.
The Prime Minister and the Ministry of National Defense also said that this is a matter for the Ministry of Interior and they cannot interfere beyond their authority.
So, the ball was kicked back and forth.
Time passed like this bit by bit.
It was not until 1 o'clock in the afternoon that Li Xiaofeng finally got through the relationship with Siam, Cochin, and the Lion Kingdom, got through the call of the Khmer Minister of Interior, and obtained the authorization.
As soon as the convoy entered the military guard area, a transport helicopter from the Northern Central Plains flew overhead with a rumble.
The direction is - the triangle valley!
Li Xiaofeng was immediately dumbfounded!
With the last glimmer of hope, he rushed to the Chenla International Resort Hotel.
Relying on the pass issued by the Minister of the Interior, he entered the hotel lobby and inquired - the guest had just left!
The ride is a helicopter!
Li Xiaofeng narrowly avoided fainting from anger!
He had no choice but to wait in the hotel lobby - he wanted to book a room, but there were no vacancies in the entire hotel!
…
After a day, Xu Ji was sitting on a helicopter again, and Xu Ji felt a little like he was in another world.
The propeller rotates and flies over cities, villages, rivers, and jungles.
After about an hour, we arrived at a rolling valley and mountainous area.
"Sir, this is the famous Triangle Valley area!"
“It is also an internationally renowned crime-hit area!”
"This place is located at the junction of Siam, Khmer, and Bagan. Due to historical reasons, it has long been a disputed area. All three countries claim sovereignty, but they have not been able to actually control it due to various concerns. Over time, it has become a three-no-thing area!"
"Since the new century, due to some new changes and the international situation, the crime tendency in this area has become more serious!"
A staff member of the Southern Petroleum Company who accompanied Xu Ji here introduced: "The ghost tree you are looking for is located in the center of this river valley..."
"We still have about twenty minutes to fly over the ghost tree!"
"Yeah!" Xu Ji nodded, looking forward to it.
Monsters and ghost trees... He had only seen photos, but never seen the real thing.
It’s a bit incredible to think about a giant tree on Blue Star that can grow to tens of meters high and requires more than a dozen people to close its trunk!
What’s even more incredible is that this giant tree does not grow naturally.
Rather, it is a product of an inexplicable evil spirit.
Xu Ji remembered that this thing seemed difficult to kill completely even with missiles.
Even if it explodes to pieces, it will grow back again after a while.
According to the information given by Gui Ling, the core of this thing is underground, and it goes deep into the ground, and can even drill into granite rock formations.
"There seems to be no such thing in the mythical world!" Xu Ji thought: "That's not right either!"
He thought of the fat man he had seen, the monster locust.
And the strange birth process of these things.
Normal locusts on Blue Star all lay eggs.
But the demonic locust in the mythical world is not like that!
They are the product of cause and effect and evil!
Something born and raised!
After hatching, it will follow the spiritual energy and the breath of plants and eat everything it can!
When the number of demonic locusts reaches a certain level, they may hatch even more terrifying fertile creatures!
Therefore, similar things may not exist in the world of mythology.
"The old god must know!"
With these things in mind, the helicopter flew over a canyon.
