Chapter 655: Sacred Tree
A good infiltration turned into a forced demolition.
There was nothing we could do about it, time was too tight, and the people in the Sixteenth Village couldn't check the spots carefully, otherwise something would happen.
Although it was due to force majeure, everyone felt quite bad, maybe because they felt that the reputation of the Sixteenth Village had been somewhat lost.
What's even worse is that he was chased by people from Qingzhu Village.
Not knowing how big the hatred was, everyone ran along the mountain forest, and the people from Qingzhu Village chased after them, and they chased them over the top of the mountain.
Thanks to the cover of darkness and dense woods, they finally got rid of the people in Qingzhu Village.
And it's definitely not that the people in Qingzhu Village don't want to pursue him, they just can't.
Running in the woods in the middle of the night, not to mention attracting any jackals, tigers, and leopards, it is easy to get into accidents. In addition, the mountains are high and the forests are dense. It is still midnight, and the people in Qingzhu Village are cursing southern Xinjiang and walking back slowly.
I feel like I have one more reason to hate the Central Plains people.
Even if the people from Qingzhu Village stopped chasing, everyone did not dare to relax and continued to run forward until they reached a safe place before they dared to stop and light a fire and set up camp.
Ran Xiaoyi first expressed her gratitude to everyone for their rescue, especially for their restraint in not killing people casually.
As for the reason why Ran Xiaoyi was locked up, it was indeed the pressure from Baofeng Village.
When Ran Xiaoyi came out, she got the permission of the clan leader. However, during this period, Ran Xiaoyi's investigation may have made people in Baofeng Village aware of it, so they directly put pressure on Qingzhu Village, saying that we were doing something that would benefit southern Xinjiang. It's a big event, so your people don't make trouble.
At first, the leader of the Qingzhu Village didn't want to listen because Baofeng Village's actions were too strange.
They are looking for high-quality spices everywhere, and they are cooperating with a group of people from the Western Regions of unknown origin. It is very suspicious no matter how you look at it.
The people of the Central Plains are very repulsive to outsiders, and outsiders are not so friendly to each other, especially in a particularly closed place like Southern Xinjiang. They treat people from the Western Region, the Northland and the Central Plains equally. Don't come and make trouble here. .
Therefore, Baofengzhai's actions not only seemed inexplicable, but also very suspicious.
This is also an important reason why the patriarch of Qingzhu Village is willing to support Ran Xiaoyi in the investigation.
But Baofengzhai saw that it didn't make sense, so he directly showed force.
Just a few days before Ran Xiaoyi came back, Baofeng Village sent people to pour excrement on the gate of Qingzhu Village and issued an ultimatum.
Your witch Zhu Ran Xiaoyi has seriously affected us. If you don’t want people to live in ruins, just take care of her.
This kind of behavior is the most serious threat and the most serious insult in southern Xinjiang. It is basically equivalent to a declaration of war.
The people in Qingzhu Village did not dare to fight.
After all, the size difference is too big.
Qingzhu Village counts all men, women, old and young, and there are only seven or eight hundred people in total, while Baofeng Village has more than 3,000 young men alone. How can we fight this?
As the saying goes, if you are poor, you can benefit yourself; if you are prosperous, you can help the world.
The patriarch of Qingzhu Village initially thought that Baofeng Village was too suspicious and that cooperation with the people from the Western Regions might affect the entire southern Xinjiang. However, now there is nothing they can do.
Qingzhu Village underestimated the opponent's determination, and seeing this, he had no choice but to agree.
So when Ran Xiaoyi came back, he locked her in a cage and said nothing to let her continue the investigation.
As for the two people from the Western Regions, I feel that they should be from the Tianlang Sect. After all, the word "wolf messenger" appeared in the conversation. They may have been sent to monitor Qingzhu Village. I planned to ask Ran Xiaoyi by the way to see if she found out. At what point, is there any threat or anything like that?
But for more information, I don’t know at all.
Ran Xiaoyi returned to Qingzhu Village to ask if there was any action in Baofeng Village during her absence, but she was locked up as soon as she entered, so she had no time to ask. But no matter what, there is definitely a problem in Baofeng Village. They have made it very clear that they are colluding with the people from the Western Regions.
If Ning Xian'er and the others had found out this step, they would definitely be operating near Baofeng Village. For Yang Yiyi, it was necessary to go there for both public and private purposes.
Li Chengqi didn't pay much attention to this. He just looked at the conversation, then yawned and turned off the computer to sleep.
The real trouble will have to wait until Baofengzhai. Now it's just a small episode.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Although he had escaped to a safe area, he could not have gone too far in a hurry, and he was still within the scope of Qingzhu Village.
There was no guarantee that they would be pursued, so when the sky was just getting dark, everyone set off again.
It's just that the number of people is much less than before. There are only five or six supporters following Ran Xiaoyi. Even counting Yang Yiyi and others and the people from the Sixteenth Village, the total number is only twenty.
With such a small number of people, going to Baofeng Village, the largest stronghold nearby, would be a bit of a self-destruction.
But Ran Xiaoyi didn't panic at all, and had no intention of backing down.
She must find out what happened to her sister and what Baofengzhai is doing.
Of course, the martial arts people who came from it were even less afraid. Since they entered southern Xinjiang, they had already been mentally prepared to break into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den. Now the few clues all point to Baofeng Village, and they must go there. Trip.
Qingzhu Village is not far from Baofeng Village, but this is not far away. It is just like people in Sichuan and Chongqing areas saying that their spicy hotpot is not spicy. It is just nonsense.
What they say is not far away is a straight line distance, but there are no straight lines in southern Xinjiang.
The group of people continued to climb over mountains and ridges, and continued to walk in the southwest direction all morning. Every time they asked how far it was, Ran Xiaoyi would say that they were almost there, but they never saw the appearance of a village.
After noon, after walking forward for almost half an hour, everyone came over a mountain peak.
At this time, an incredible scene appeared in front of everyone.
That's a big tree...
No, or it was a big tree.
That tree is so big that its trunk is wider than a mountain from a distance, and its branches tower into the clouds. You can't even see where the top of the tree is.
For the people of the Central Plains, this is simply a fucking miracle.
Ran Xiaoyi seemed to have guessed that everyone would have this reaction, and was very considerate without saying a word before. Seeing that everyone was shocked, Ran Xiaoyi pointed to the big tree and said: "According to the legend passed down from generation to generation by our witchcraft , there used to be a divine pillar supporting the heaven and the earth, but then the divine pillar was destroyed and the fragments scattered all over the world. At this time, the heaven and the earth were separated, and the remaining divine pillar turned into the big tree. "
It is unknown whether this legend is true or false, but it is very convincing to say that this tree can hold up the heaven and the earth.
"Baofeng Village is under that tree. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is a blessed place. We should be able to see it when we climb over the mountain in front, but we will also meet people from Baofeng Village there. Qian Be careful not to be discovered by them."
Everyone who had recovered from the shock nodded after hearing this. Baofeng Village was not comparable to Qingzhu Village, and they should indeed be more careful.
Only Yang Yiyi lowered her head slightly, because she felt Yu Gui vibrating in her arms, as if to remind Yang Yiyi.
If the legend is true, then is there a possibility that the divine pillar that supports the heaven and earth as Ran Xiaoyi said is the Optimian Jade Pillar, and the Optimian Jade Pillar happened to be broken by the Optimian Immortal.
In this case, the probability of finding the Optimus Stone down here must be quite high.
