Caves, bonfires, a man and a woman, [-] spectators.

Chen Jing ate roasted pork liver and drank chamomile tea.

Listen to the dusty history and strange legends, from Gu Jingmo's mouth.

The story is not complicated.

In the 30s, several expedition teams composed of geologists, biologists, treasure hunters and medical experts came to the war-torn China hot land with the sponsorship of the royal family.

Some of them went to the old Xinjiang, some went to southern Yunnan, and some went to the Guandong, and one of them went from the land of Xiangtan to the source of the Huaihe River and entered the eight hundred li Qinchuan.

The vast land and rich resources, and the long history of Chinese civilization made the expedition team enthusiastic. They all had the same idea, and while the "giant dragon" was sleeping soundly, they pulled out a piece of dragon scale from it.

Even if it is only a small piece, they can still become great adventurers, rich men, and even step into the upper class and become nobles when they return to the port where the sun never sets.

The expedition team's eyes were mainly on various precious cultural relics. After searching and inquiring from many sources, coercion and temptation, the expedition team got a large number of ancient cultural relics from the folks half-buy and half-cheat, and all kinds of gold and silver treasures were filled with four large suitcases.

But just as they were about to leave, in the restaurant, they overheard a folk anecdote about the patron saint of the Qinling Mountains and the golden tree.

Legend has it that in the depths of the Qinling Mountains, in a corner where no one lives, there is a magical golden tree growing.

The golden tree can suck the gold from the ground into the tree, and then spit it out from the leaves. A single leaf can extract gold the size of a "pea".

And in the descriptions of those people, the golden tree "is several feet thick, as tall as an attic, and the tree canopy covers the sky and blocks out the sun, it is very majestic!"

But it is not easy to get the leaves of the golden tree.

First of all, not everyone can find the golden tree, only those who are destined can meet it. Secondly, Qinling has a patron saint. Once a creature approaches the golden tree, it will appear.

After hearing the legend of the golden tree, the expedition team immediately made a decision to find a guide and head to the deep mountains of the Qinling Mountains with the treasure they found.

And this profit-seeking journey is far more difficult and difficult than they imagined.

As soon as he entered the mountain, a member of the team got seriously ill because of acclimatization, and had to leave halfway with some treasures.

The remaining members took most of the treasures and continued to search for the golden tree.

However, no one knew what happened afterwards. Until the end of the war, nearly a hundred years passed, and the expedition team seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no news at all.

This is the legend of the patron saint of the Qinling Mountains and the golden tree.

As for how Gu Jingmo learned about this past event?
Very simple, the person who entrusted her to go to Qinling to find the lost treasure was the descendant of the member who quit the expedition due to illness.

The other party not only paid a high commission fee, but also promised that if she finds the treasure lost by the expedition team, she will give an additional 30.00% profit share after the discovery.

There are specific routes, topographic maps, and generous rewards. Although the difficulty of entrusting the task is beyond imagination, Gu Jingmo is still moved.

Another reason is that as long as the video she submits passes the review and evaluation of the Treasure Hunter Club, she will become the first Supreme Treasure Hunter since the establishment of the organization.

Unexpectedly, after running to Qinling, not only did not see the shadow of the golden tree and the treasure, but he almost died here.

After sending out that video, it not only meant that the commission failed, but also meant that she lost the qualification to be promoted to the Supreme Treasure Hunter.

After the story was told, everyone really learned the ins and outs of Gu Jingmo's coming here.

However, the content of it caused a lot of controversy in the live broadcast room.

【"A group of robbers ran to us to take advantage of the fire and rob us, and they wanted to get the golden tree. They deserve to die in the mountains!"

"It sounds quite bluffing. There are names and surnames. As for the guardian god of the Qinling Mountains and the golden tree, whether they really exist or not is still a question mark."

"At least the gold, silver and jewels that the expedition team collected are real!"

"Interesting, this live broadcast room is really interesting."

"But according to our country's regulations, even if you find the treasure, you can't take it away through formal means, unless..."

"Hey, those people have a lot of solutions, but haven't they found it now?"

"Fortunately I didn't find it!"

"Jingshen thinks, how credible is this matter? The golden tree or something sounds very unreliable. The expedition team is all experts. Are they so stupid?"]

The fire was reflected in Chen Jing's eyes, he drank the last sip of chamomile tea, and said seriously:
"The golden tree does exist!"

"As everyone said, the expedition team is not stupid, how could they risk their lives because of the illusory legends?"

"Actually, in nature, many plants have special abilities to absorb and replace mineral metals."

"There are quite a few things that can replace gold, such as seaweed in the sea, a kind of fern called bracken, or scorpion grass, and the famous gold-bearing tree."

"They can all absorb gold from the soil, provided that the place where they grow has gold itself."

"The study of modern biology in foreign countries is many, many years earlier than that in China. It may be recorded in ancient books in China, but the popularity of relevant knowledge is different."

"Perhaps the experts of the expedition judged through such legends that there is a gold mine deep in the Qinling Mountains, so the value of finding it is much more precious than the treasures plundered before."

"It can even cause a sensation in the entire empire on which the sun never sets!"

"As for the patron saint of the Qinling Mountains, killing the evil and allowing the good to pick three golden leaves is too fake. It is indeed a true folklore..."

【"Is there really a golden tree?"

"Isn't the gold-bearing tree just a fir? It is true that it can grow gold, but how can a single leaf extract gold the size of a pea, and the tree canopy covers the sky and the sun, take it!"

"There is a gold mine, Jingshen, why don't you also go to find the treasure, now that the two of you are united, maybe you can really succeed."

"It's almost done, it's not bad if you can get out alive, and you're still hunting for treasure, it's like dying!"]

Chen Jing shook his head.

"I'm not interested in treasure hunting. Believe me, most of the treasures in this world are ill-gotten gains."

"As for the gold mine, what's the use of finding it, the two of us can still hollow out the mountain, can't we mine it?"

"The higher-ups will not send a construction team into Qinling Mountains for a gold mine that does not know the specific storage capacity and is extremely difficult to develop. After so many painful experiences in the past, hasn't it sounded the alarm for everyone?"

"What I'm thinking about now is how to complete my own challenge, leave the Qinling Mountains alive within a month, and arrive at the Guanzhong Plain."

"Today is December 12th, I only have 10 days..."

"If Miss Gu recovers well, I plan to leave the day after tomorrow and leave the Pit Forest first."

"As for the daytime tomorrow, I will collect the night vines and use them to boil the medicine cubes. After thinking about it, it is still not so safe to simply contain some stalks of the night vines."

"After listening to the story, everyone should take a rest. It's getting late. See you at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

Under everyone's reluctant eyes, Chen Jing waved his hand and turned off the streaming.

Silence returned to the cave, and he came to the bacon rack at the entrance of the cave, carefully looked at the color of the bacon, turned his head and said:
"Smoke it for another hour, and it should be almost done. If you are sleepy, you can sleep here and leave it to me to take care of you."

Gu Jingmo shook his head.

"I slept for a long time during the day. If you are tired, rest first. If you are not tired, we can chat for a while."

"also!"

Chen Jing was naturally tired, but he didn't intend to let Gu Jingmo do the work by himself.

Without the audience, Chen Jing's social status dropped a lot.

In life, he can only be said to be generally talkative.

Gu Jingmo had a lot to say, but in the end, he only said one sentence.

"If you go out to do something tomorrow, remember to wake me up, I'll be with you."

"Why? I don't need your help. I can handle it alone. The most important thing is that you have a good rest."

Chen Jing was a little puzzled, he felt that Gu Jingmo's thinking was irrational.

The latter stared at his back with scorching eyes, and said seriously:

"Staying here alone, I always feel a little uneasy and scared!"

"What are you afraid of? Is it safe in the cave?"

Chen Jing asked casually with a smile, reaching out to flip the wild pork on the shelf.

"I'm afraid you won't come back after leaving, and I'm even more afraid that you will be in danger. Have I ever told you that this forest is weird?"

"In the past few days, I always felt that something was staring at me. It was terrible. When I was sleeping, I could occasionally hear the sound of my heart beating and the sound of breathing, but whenever I turned around and looked around."

"But I can't find anything..."

"I really don't want to stay in the cave by myself. No matter what happens, at least the two of us can face it together."

"It should be a hallucination. Why didn't I hear this kind of abnormal sound? The sound of the heartbeat must be heard by others. It may be that you are not resting well, and you are too sensitive due to neurasthenia. I was also like this for a while. The alarm clock on the phone and the ringing of the phone would startle me."

"The danger is over, don't worry too much, if it doesn't work, you can go out with me tomorrow!"

"But it's better not to exercise strenuously, and to rest for another day."

"Okay~", Gu Jingmo gave him a deep look.

……

At night, Chen Jing lay on the cold stone platform, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Although he laughed at what Gu Jingmo said just now, but in his heart, his real thoughts were not like that.

There are taboo creatures in the Qinling Mountains. The term "Guardian God" is not groundless. You can hear descriptions about "He" in many legends.

Could this be the real difficulty of the challenge mission?

What are the forbidden creatures in Qinling Mountains?
If it really appeared, how should I face it?

After thinking about it, Chen Jing fell asleep.
