Chapter 87 The Ultimate (6)
"Here it is. Could you dig up those two herbs for me, the one with the really small leaves?"
"Are these the two plants?" Wu Xie quickly dug them up.
"Correct!"
"Will these be enough to drive away those pheasant necks?"
"Of course not, it needs to be processed first!" Wangyou opened her backpack, took out some tools and her special medicinal powder, and quickly processed the newly dug herbs in front of her.
Do you have any extra cloth?
"Can I use a handkerchief?" Xiaohua asked, taking out two handkerchiefs.
"of course can!"
Wrap the prepared medicine packets in paper, then place them in handkerchiefs and divide them into six equal portions, one packet for each person. "Just keep them close to your body!"
"Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner when we get out!"
"Let's go, what's that up ahead? It looks like it's blocking our way!"
There's something behind there!
"Let's blow it open with explosives!"
"Where did the explosives come from?!"
"I have one, Fatty!" The fat man took out a homemade explosive charge from his bag, installed it, and then walked back and pressed the button.
"Fat Man's Brand Dynamite, bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Fatty, your explosives had a slight delay, but you're still pretty tough!" Wangyou said with a smile, looking at the road that had been blown open.
"Hehe, as long as it works!"
"Why does this thing look so familiar!"
"Let's go in and take a look!"
"A bird with a human face!"
"Hey, isn't this the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds? How did it get so far away!"
"Could it be that the Queen Mother of the West has some kind of connection with that person in the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds?!"
"They're probably all after the Queen Mother of the West's elixir!"
The group looked around the statue, including Wangyou. She noticed that the material of the statue was unusual, as were the holes in the human-faced bird.
Later, I saw some murals on the statues, which depicted a sacrificial process.
"Why are there so many bones here? They're all animal bones!"
"There's something wrong with those holes. Find something to plug them up quickly!" Wangyou casually grabbed a handful of weeds and stuffed them into the holes.
Is there something wrong with this hole?
"These human-faced bird statues were carved from a meteorite, and these holes are responsible for collecting various sounds, which may be converted into infrasound. I don't think I need to elaborate on how powerful infrasound is!"
"Block it, everyone block it now!" The fat man became much more efficient.
"No wonder we didn't hear a sound when we got here, and the people on the statue all fell down halfway!"
"Let's get out of here quickly, it's not safe to stay any longer!"
The group nodded in unison and quickly left the altar-like area.
A thunderous roar resounded.
It's going to rain soon!
"Is this part of Tamutuo? Will that ghost city in the rain appear?" Wangyou asked excitedly.
"That depends on your luck!" Black Bear chuckled.
"I'll go up there and take a look!" Before the rain started, Wangyou found the best tree and climbed up it in no time.
"Hey buddy, how does this skill compare to yours?" Black Bear asked, leaning closer.
The young man didn't say anything; he just stared blankly into space.
Looking at Wangyou standing on the treetop, the group was so shocked they were speechless. Standing on the treetop, was that even possible for a human?
Wangyou climbed the tree and looked around. She definitely didn't see the ghost town in the rain, since she didn't want to be struck by lightning yet. She did see quite a few people, but they were still quite far away.
Having seen what she wanted to see, Wangyou swiftly climbed down from the tree.
"Little girl, are you really only eighteen years old?"
"I am eight hundred and eighty years old this year!" Forget-Worry Thief said sincerely.
"Who taught you these skills? You're so amazing!" Black Bear couldn't help but ask.
"Self-taught!"
What did you see up there?
"I saw another group of people. It seems there are others besides you, but they're quite far from here!"
"It seems Third Master and the others have arrived. We'd better hurry!"
"Let's find somewhere to take shelter from the rain!" Aning got up and walked forward.
Wangyou reached into her backpack and pulled out an umbrella, just as the rain started to fall.
"You're really well-equipped! You even brought an umbrella!"
"Of course! After all, I'm here for tourism, not adventure!" Wangyou said with a smile. "Come with me, I just saw a small cave not far away, we can take shelter there for a while!"
The group followed Wangyou to a cave. Wangyou lit a cloth bag and threw it inside. Soon, many insects came out.
"So many bugs!"
After waiting a while, until no more insects came out, "Let's go in, it should be safe now!"
"Your herbal medicine pack really works! With you here, I feel much safer!" the fat man said after walking into the cave and looking around.
"Aren't these things essential when you go out on adventures?!"
“We only bring food, water, weapons, and first-aid supplies when we go out. Things like the umbrella you brought are just a burden!”
“Alright!” Wangyou knew that if she didn’t have a spatial dimension, she definitely wouldn’t have dared to bring so many things over.
"Let's rest here tonight and continue our journey tomorrow!"
Aning took out the food and distributed it to everyone. When she saw that it was compressed biscuits, Wangyou didn't really want to eat it. To put it bluntly, she was just spoiled!
"You guys eat, I don't like this. I brought self-heating rice, do you want some too?" Wangyou opened her backpack and took out a bunch of self-heating rice.
"You can choose the flavor yourself, and as for water, I brought bottled water!"
"How much stuff did you bring?" the fat man asked curiously, wanting to see.
Wangyou slammed her backpack shut. "Don't look at girls' things!"
"Oh, I'll take one too. This Kung Pao Chicken will definitely be a hit with the guy. I'll take it to him!" The fat man then distributed the rest of the self-heating rice to everyone.
"I think this mineral water costs around 300 yuan a bottle!" The fat man was about to add water to his rice when he saw the mineral water label.
"Sister, do you have any money-making projects you can help me with?" the chubby boy said obsequiously, showing off his little tiger teeth.
"Just eat your food!"
After dinner, unable to fall asleep, Wangyou decided to ask a question.
"I want to know what exactly the Nine Gates are looking for, and why your previous generation got involved, and why your current generation is involved too!"
"It's a long story..." Wu Xie saw that Wangyou really wanted to know, so he simply told her and even showed her Chen Wenjin's notes.
"In the end, it all revolves around immortality. Immortality is just a hoax. There's no such thing as immortality. Even people with special bloodlines like me and Brother Xiao are not guaranteed to live forever!"
"You also have Qilin blood!"
"Of course not, don't guess!" Wangyou stopped talking about the topic. "However, the thing repeatedly mentioned in this notebook should be an organization!"
"How to say?"
"Based on this notebook and my deductions, this organization must have known about immortality a long time ago, and most likely had a great deal of entanglement with your Nine Gates, but ultimately they probably failed!"
A guess is slowly taking shape for Wangyou!
