This sentence suddenly made Fang Tong and Zhuang Biyun come to their senses. Seeing that Wang Sancai is safe, Zhuang Biyun finally felt relieved. Seeing that he looked dirty, he couldn't help but reach out to help him wipe the mud on his face.
"Don't stand there, go quickly." Wang Sancai interrupted Zhuang Biyun, grabbed her hand and ran to the place where Fang Tong had just come out, adding a sentence to him: "Come with me."
Zhuang Biyun was also worried that the explosion would attract the attention of other terrifying beasts or pursuers in the rain forest, so she didn't dare to think too much, nor did she struggle. Fang Tong, who was beside her, saw that the two had left, looked at the entrance of the cave blocked by rocks, and looked around again. After not finding anything unusual, she caught up with the two.
Wang Sancai took Zhuang Biyun's hand and did not run for a long time. He stopped in front of an iron tree that was about to be surrounded by three people, and then pointed at the top of the trunk: "Xiao Niu, go up first."
Zhuang Biyun was originally puzzled about where Wang Sancai and Fang Tong had found, but he didn't understand why Wang Sancai suddenly stopped. He followed the direction Wang Sancai pointed, and then he saw that a thick branch grew on the trunk about six feet (two meters) above the ground, with a diameter of one circle thicker than the wrist of an adult.
What’s important is that a huge tree tumor grew at the root of the tree branch, enough to support the weight of several people. On the trunk at the root of the tree branch, an area was dug out, and with the dim moonlight, one could barely see that there was nothing inside.
If I hadn't observed it carefully, I'd probably have ignored this place!
At this time, Fang Tong had already caught up with the two of them. Seeing Zhuang Biyun looking up at the tree hole, she reminded him: "Miss Zhuang, don't worry, I've checked it just now, it's very safe inside."
It was not that Zhuang Biyun didn't believe Fang Tong, but she didn't expect that there would be a hole in the tree. When she heard Fang Tong's words come back to her senses, she nodded, threw the long sword in her hand first, then jumped under her feet, and grabbed the position of the tumor above. She didn't see how hard she tried, but she actually pulled her whole body gently and was "lifted" up.
After standing on top, Zhuang Biyun squatted down and stretched out a hand, saying to Wang Sancai: "Give me your hand, I'll pull you up."
Seeing that she easily climbed up, Wang Sancai couldn't help but feel a little deeper in his envy for the cultivator. Although the height of two meters is not high, there are few vines in this area and there is no place to step on the trunk. If he climbed up with his arm strength alone, Wang Sancai was not sure. Seeing that Zhuang Biyun took the initiative to stretch out a hand to him, he did not hesitate and grabbed her arm.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Sancai's eyes flashed and felt a powerful force pulling him up. When he saw clearly again, he was already standing on the tree hole. Fang Tong below saw that both of them had already gone up, so he said, "Brother, you go in with Miss Zhuang first, I will go up now."
Because a tumor grew at the root of this branch, this area was relatively spacious. However, Wang Sancai and Zhuang Biyun stood on it and had already occupied the place. If Fang Tong wanted to come up below, one of them must first enter the tree hole.
Wang Sancai did not hesitate. After hearing Fang Tong's words, he took the initiative to walk into the tree hole. However, he did not come up when Fang Tong was checking. This was the first time he entered the tree hole, and he found that the tree hole seemed a little strange.
With a night vision device, he was different from Fang Tong. As soon as he walked into the tree hole, he saw that the interior space was very large and the height was at least two meters, which was enough for Wang San to stand upright. The wall of the cave was extremely smooth and the cross-section under his feet was also very smooth. The key is that the tree hole was not round, but square in shape. There were some traces of chiseling at the angle between the cross-section and the vertical surface.
Zhuang Biyun, who followed in, found that Wang Sancai was squatting in the corner as if observing, and couldn't help but wonder: "What are you doing?"
"It's nothing." Wang Sancai took a breath and said calmly: "I just didn't expect that this tree hole was also artificially created."
"Ah? Artificial manufacturing?" Zhuang Biyun was stunned for a moment, remembering the two rows of words at the fork in the tunnel, and immediately said in surprise: "Is it related to the tunnel we climbed up?"
"Maybe it's related." Wang Sancai sighed, then stood up: "But what I'm even more curious about now is what kind of strength it takes to create this big tree hole."
At this time, Fang Tong had already climbed up. When he heard Wang Sancai's words, he immediately replied: "The hardness and toughness of the iron tree are far beyond the point of splitting it with ordinary people. It is no exaggeration to call it "copper walls and iron walls". If I want to dig such a big hole in it, with my strength, I'm afraid it will be at least a month."
As he said that, Fang Tong looked around and saw that there was no abnormal movement, he walked into the cave and continued as he walked: "Looking at this tree hole, it seems to be for a temporary rest. I guess the one who dug out this tree hole must be the innate powerhouse... Except for the innate powerhouse, I really couldn't imagine who would spend a lot of effort to dig a cave inside the iron tree."
After Fang Tong said this, Wang Sancai couldn't help but frown: "What? Is it difficult for people in the acquired realm to dig out such a cave?"
As he said that, he also took out the seal knife and poked it in the corner with all his strength!
Bang!
Suddenly, Wang Sancai felt as if he had touched an iron block. The recoil force made his wrist numb, but a small spark flashed in the corner where he was poked, and no marks were left!
"Yes!" The answer was Zhuang Biyun. She didn't find it strange at first, but after the two said this, she felt something wrong. When she heard Wang Sancai's question, she quickly replied: "Even in the late stage of concentration, it should take at least two days to dig such a large cave inside the iron tree..."
Her last tone was not sure, but Fang Tong confirmed for her: "Miss Zhuang is right. I think that since it is just for rest, a master of the acquired realm will definitely not spend two days digging out such a tree hole. Only innate power can easily dig such a large cave inside the iron tree."
After saying this, Fang Tong suddenly changed his tone and said in confusion: "I now have some doubts whether the tree hole here and the tunnel we climbed up were done by the same person?"
As soon as this sentence was spoken, Zhuang Biyun couldn't help but lower his head and think about it.
Seeing that it was indeed as Fang Tong said, Wang Sancai put away the seal's short knife and simply sat down.
Although the "ground" is as hard as steel, fortunately, it is not as cold as steel, but it also feels slightly warm and comfortable.
After finding a comfortable position to lean on the cave wall, Wang Sancai said lightly: "No matter whether it was done by one person or not, it has nothing to do with us anyway. What are you thinking about? I don't know what you two feel, but I am exhausted. It should be safe here. Take the time to rest and keep your energy and get on the road during the day."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Sancai couldn't help but yawn. Until now, it was the second half of the night. Although Wang Sancai did not wear a watch or a mobile phone, he suddenly felt relaxed and his physical fatigue seemed to be pulled out, making him feel that he had no strength to move.
Sure enough, yawn seemed to be really contagious. Wang Sancai had just finished yawning, and Zhuang Biyun next to him couldn't help but follow one. She thought what Wang Sancai said was very reasonable, so she didn't think about this matter and sat next to Wang Sancai. After hesitating for a moment, she still laid her head on Wang Sancai's shoulder.
Seeing this, Fang Tong could only shake his head helplessly, thinking that he was really thinking too much. After all, he didn't know whether he could leave the rain forest alive, so why bother with other leisure time?
Understanding this, Fang Tong walked towards the other side of Wang Sancai, sat down on the other side of him, and clamped Wang Sancai with Zhuang Biyun. However, unlike Zhuang Biyun, Fang Tong did not rely on Wang Sancai's shoulder.
The tree hole was big enough that the three of them could completely stretch their legs out by relying on the wall of the hole. After Fang Tong sat down, he also wanted to follow the two of them and stretch out their legs to rest for a while. However, when he leaned on the wall of the hole behind him, he was implicated in the wound of Heihou, which made him snort in pain and sat upright again like a conditioned reflex.
"You'd better sleep on your stomach." Wang Sancai said apologetically: "I'm so sorry for letting you get a sword for me."
"It's nothing, I've been used to this kind of small wound for a long time." Fang Tong shook his head indifferently, as if he had just remembered that there was a wound behind him. He took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it to Wang Sancai and said: "Brother, this is the best gold-innovation medicine refined by the Pang family. You are injured tonight. Apply a little. As long as it is a skin trauma like us, apply it to the wound, it can heal the wound in just two hours without leaving any scars."
Speaking of this, Fang Tong couldn't help but feel a little melancholy: "It's a pity that this is the last bottle."
Wang Sancai took the small bottle, gently pulled the bottle plug, looked at the Jinchuang medicine inside, and couldn't help but wonder: "What? You can't refine it, either?"
"I can, but I don't have the chance at all, nor do I have the necessary materials to refine Jinchuang medicine." Fang Tong shook his head slightly, but smiled and said, "Brother, apply it quickly, it will be ugly if you leave a scar."
"Thank you." Wang Sancai was not a pretentious person. After giving him a smile, he gently sprinkled the Jinchuang medicine in the small bottle on his wound. He immediately felt a cool and comfortable feeling. Then, he placed the small bottle on the "floor", gently applied the Jinchuang medicine on the wound, and then picked up the small bottle and said, "You are much more serious than me. Turn around quickly and I'll apply some to you."
However, unexpectedly, Fang Tong shook his head and took out another bottle from his arms: "Brother, please help me use this. This is also a Jinchuang medicine. I bought it in the city with gold coins."
Wang Sancai couldn't help but wonder and frowned: "What? Don't you use the best Jinchuang medicine?"
"I don't need it." Fang Tong sighed and lowered his head and said, "This is the birthday gift my father gave me on my fifteenth birthday..."
Speaking of this, Fang Tong raised his head and gave Wang Sancai a bitter smile: "I can't bear to use it."
"...Sorry." Wang San paused for a moment before handing him the bottle of the best Jinchuang medicine back: "I shouldn't use it either."
"Brother, don't do this. I gave it to you on my own initiative." Fang Tong obviously didn't care, and even smiled at Wang Sancai. After taking the small bottle and putting it aside, he began to take off his light armor.
Wang Sancai was unwilling to pretend to be pretentious. Seeing that Fang Tong really didn't mind, he didn't say anything more. He secretly remembered this kindness in his heart. After taking this bottle of ordinary Jinchuang medicine, he opened the bottle stopper.
Fang Tong took off his light armor and was still on the side. He began to take off his unhealthy coat again, and said while taking it off: "This light armor is still here, and I will no longer be theirs in the future."
After saying that, his coat had also been taken off.
However, Wang Sancai saw that Fang Tong's entire back, arms, and even the entire upper body were not dense, but there were at least two or thirty scars in his eyes!
They are interlaced horizontally and vertically, some are thick and thin, and colors are dark and shallow, like iron-blooded medals that stimulate Wang Sancai's eyes!
Meow... How did he survive so many wounds?
Thinking that Fang Tong was only eighteen years old so far, Wang Sancai felt even more shocked.
He even guessed how many thrilling battles Fang Tong had encountered in the two years of going with the flow!
In this world where life is worthless, how did he survive until now?
For a moment, Wang Sancai was shocked by Fang Tong's terrifying scar.
Although Zhuang Biyun on the side was also shocked, she was born and raised in this world after all. In this regard, she was only much more knowledgeable than Wang Sancai's knowledge, and her reaction speed was naturally faster than Wang Sancai.
When she heard Fang Tong's last words, she immediately thought of something and blurted out: "Brother Fang Tong, what organization did you have in before? Who are they? Why are they chasing me?"
