Chapter 202 Dead Tree, White Jade Coffin

It was not easy for Jiang Yang and others to walk through the primeval forest with lush vegetation.

There are so many poisonous plants and insects in this jungle that you will be infected if you are not careful. You have to be very alert to avoid falling into the quagmire and swamp.

They were already fully armed and had their own protection on.

Although it is a bit inconvenient, it can effectively avoid the infestation of some poisonous insects.

There are also many ancient ferns growing on the ground that are nearly half a person's height. They are considered to be relatively valuable plants in future scientific research.

Jiang Yang randomly picked up an algae fern and recycled it into the system, and actually got two super points.

If the timing hadn't been right, he would have really wanted to be a forager.

The deeper you go into the jungle, the more exotic flowers and trees there are, and there are also many towering trees.

Various types of flowers and butterflies are flying among the flowers, including many rare species from the outside world.

There is a kind of blue butterfly that is particularly conspicuous. It forms a dreamlike blue screen in groups.

"What beautiful butterflies!" Hua Ling'er looked at those dancing blue butterflies, fascinated, and felt like she was in a dreamy paradise.

Jiang Yang also saw these active nature elves. Although there is not much research in this area, this beautiful ornamental object is absolutely rare and precious, at least for those butterfly lovers.

It's getting closer and closer to the west, and it's dusk!
  This primitive jungle is very large. The group of people walked forward on foot, and they didn’t know how far they walked.

Finally, a shocking and terrifying scene appeared in front of them, forcing Jiang Yang and others to stop.

This is a tree! A huge tree that’s so huge that it’s heart-stopping!
  too big! It's so big that it would take more than ten adults to wrap a circle around the tree trunk.

And on the tree crown, numerous branches extend outward, like a huge mushroom cloud, as tall as a skyscraper.

The reason why I feel frightened and heart palpitating is because this tree is strangely different from the surrounding environment.

The vegetation growing around the giant tree is dense and prosperous, with flowers and grass everywhere, and the trees are green and full of vitality.

But the giant tree in front of them was bare without a single leaf, and its branches were all black and withered. It was obvious at a glance that it was a dead tree without any life.

As far as the roots of the tree stretch, the crown of the tree grows.

The ground covered by the tree canopy is also an empty dead land with no vegetation, no life, not even a single insect or ant.

It seems as if just being close to this tree represents death.

This is not even the most shocking and scary part!

The most frightening thing is that the hanging roots on the branches of the giant tree have cocoons hanging upside down. To be precise, they are human servants. One or two of them have human skulls exposed.

There are a lot of these servants, probably hundreds of them, densely packed.

This scene made Jiang Yang and others feel eerie and terrifying. The female Hua Ling'er and Russula Liang hid directly behind the male.

"This King Xian is too damn cruel and unkind!" Chen Yuguan couldn't help but cursed directly.

Both Min Gushao and Jiang Yang frowned, and they criticized the cruelty of these ancient feudal kings with great hatred.

If it were an ordinary tree burial, it would never be on such a scale.

Therefore, they were all sure that this was a deliberate arrangement. Who else could this person be than King Xian!

Fortunately, these servants did not raise water bees, probably because there is no water here.

Otherwise, they will face the attack of the water wasp army again!

"How about we help them bury them in their graves?" Chen Yukuan suddenly suggested.

The dead are the most important!
  Chen Yukuan still respects this ancestral precept!

"If you want to come, do it yourself, we don't have the time." Jiang Yang retorted directly.

Once they arrive, they have to find high ground as soon as possible, otherwise it will be dangerous when it gets dark!
  Secondly, he felt that the yin energy here was too strong and it was not a place to stay for a long time. It would definitely take a long time to bury so many servants one by one. Seeing that Jiang Yang did not agree with his proposal, Chen Yugan also knew that his manpower was limited, so he reluctantly gave up the idea.

"What kind of tree is this? Why is it so huge?" Russula Liang, who was no longer so scared, had already walked out from behind.

"This is a banyan tree." Min Gushao answered her, and explained in detail: "Banyan trees are large trees and can usually grow very large. The huge banyan tree in front of you has probably grown for more than a thousand years."

"Then will it become a spirit?" Hua Ling'er also asked curiously.

It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people! Doesn’t this thousand-year-old tree have to become a spirit?

"One hundred percent no! Isn't it dead now?" Jiang Yang asked, touching Hua Ling'er's little head.

"Let's go! Get out of here!" Looking at the giant tree, Min Gushao felt a little uneasy and wanted to leave as soon as possible.

Jiang Yang also nodded and agreed to leave!

Just when they were about to go around the giant tree, Chen Yukuan exclaimed: "There seems to be something on the top of the tree."

Jiang Yang approached Chen Yuguan's position and looked towards the top of the tree, and he actually saw a touch of white.

"It seems to be a jade coffin!" Jiang Yang guessed uncertainly.

"Jade coffin?" Chen Yuguan's face showed a look of surprise.

Such a large jade coffin is definitely worth a lot of money.

Several people changed positions to observe, and finally determined that there was really a vertical white jade coffin on the tree crown, and there was a corpse inside the white jade coffin.

"Why don't you go up and have a look?" Chen Yukuan suggested, tilting his head.

Curiosity is the source of all trouble! Everyone has curiosity, but not everyone can completely control this curiosity.

Jiang Yang was a little moved by Chen Yuguan's proposal.

He really wanted to find out what was going on with this giant tree. Logically speaking, such a huge tree couldn't die easily. It must have been tampered with.

Who is in the white jade coffin above? What does it have to do with King Xian?
  And what is the purpose of arranging these hanging upside down servants?

A series of questions flashed through Jiang Yang's mind, making him even more curious about the white jade coffin on the tree crown.

"Senior brother, Brother Chen and I will go up and have a look. You guys will take care of us below." When Jiang Yang saw that Min Gushao was about to speak, he spoke first. He knew what Min Gushao was going to say without even thinking about it. It was just that one thing more was better than one less thing. Min Gushao's behavior has always been very cautious.

Seeing that Jiang Yang had made up his mind, Min Gushao nodded helplessly: "Be careful!"

Because there is a dead ground formed by this giant tree around, there should be no danger to approach, so it is safer on the ground.

"Brother, be careful!" Hua Ling'er also warned.

"Okay!" Jiang Yang responded with a smile, then took out the Sky Diamond Cable and Flying Tiger Hook and prepared them.

When Chen Yuguan heard that both Hua Ling'er and Min Gushao had expressed concern to Jiang Yang, he looked at Hong Guliang seriously. He thought that as a girl, Hong Guliang should also send him a word of care.

It's just that his expectations turned into the cold wind of winter, and Red Gushule Liang didn't even think of saying anything to him, making him feel intensely neglected.

"Ahem!" Chen Yuan looked at the red mushroom and pretended to remind him.

Hong Guliang glanced at him doubtfully, then realized what he was thinking, but rolled her eyes at him.

"Sister Russula, your brother and I are going to take risks, aren't you worried?" Chen Yuguan thought that he had not expressed clearly enough, so he asked directly.

"I'm worried about you. With Jiang Yang taking care of you, I'm afraid you'll get hurt." Hong Guliang retorted directly.

"Hee hee! Boss, please don't hold my senior brother back!" Hua Ling'er smiled and hit the target, which made Chen Yuguan feel depressed.

Even Jiang Yang smiled. He had known for a long time that he had become the backbone of the team, so there was no surprise. This was confidence!
