Chapter 1783: tree of Life

Are there ghosts in the mountains?
Lu Yi was funny: "What age is this? Why do you still believe in feudal superstition? How can there be ghosts in this world?"
"Really." The old man said solemnly, "Do you know why we are called Shiwan Dashan? It's because there are too many mountains here, so mysterious."
"What's the mystery?" Lu Yi asked.
"I'll talk about it first. The little devil came here to sweep during the Anti-Japanese War. At that time, one group of the little devil went into the mountain, but none came out."
The old man was afraid that Lu Yi would not believe it, and said: "The old people in our village all know about this. If the boss doesn't believe it, you can ask after you return."
"Just this?"
"More than that." The old man glanced at the distant mountain and said: "Later, we wanted to develop here and engage in tourism, and we sent people to survey, but several survey personnel went in and didn't come out."
"A lot of police officers came and investigated for a long time. Two police officers also died here. Since then, the mountain has been closed and villagers are not allowed to enter."
The old man said, "Even if the mountain is not closed, no one would dare to go in. There are ghosts in the mountain. In the middle of the night, there will be some wildfires in the mountain, accompanied by some weird sounds."
"Is it unscientific to say that there are ghosts only when I see the ghost fire?" Lu Yi said: "Besides, science has now explained that the ghost fire is a natural phenomenon of nature."
Ghost fires are also called phosphorous fires, and they often appear in rural areas in summer, but most of the places where they appear are in cemeteries. Because human bones contain scales, phosphine is produced when phosphorus reacts with water or alkali.
Phosphine is a natural gas. It is very light and moves when the wind blows. In ancient times, there was no such scientific explanation, so the common people thought it was a ghost fire.
"There are really ghosts." The old man said, "If there are no ghosts, why didn't those who entered the mountain come out?"
"Maybe it's a beast?" Lu Yi said.
The old man shook his head fiercely: "No matter how powerful the beast is, can it be powerful with a gun? The regiment that the little devil entered back then brought a lot of weapons."
"Even if a lot of people die and some weird things happen, it doesn't mean that there are ghosts in the mountains? Unless you see them with your own eyes."
Hearing this, the old man became anxious, "Boss, why don't you believe it? There are real ghosts in the mountains, but everyone who has seen them with their own eyes is dead."
Lu Yi smiled and said, "It's not that I don't believe you, but now everything is scientific."
"Science, I came to several inspection groups, took some photos and videos around here, and then made them into a show. It is said that the number of hits was quite high, and I watched it on TV. In the end, what No investigation came out." The old man said: "Just like the investigation team I saw a few days ago investigating the monster, it took half an hour, and in the end it said that everything was under exploration."
Lu Yi was a little funny. He had watched a lot of programs about this kind of scientific exploration. Indeed, as the old man said, he didn't investigate anything clearly in the end, but made it even more mysterious.
"By the way, can you get to the shore and put me down?" Lu Yi said.
"Boss, do you really want to go in?" The old man said bitterly, "Why don't you listen to my advice, you can't go in the mountains, there are really ghosts."
"It's okay, I'm young and full of blood, I really want to have a ghost, and I should shun it when I see it." Lu Yi smiled. The more mysterious the old man said, the more he wanted to go in.
Indeed, the Shiwanda Mountain has been mysterious since ancient times, and Lu Yi also wanted to go in and see, what is inside the mountain?
"Boss, listen to my advice. If the mountain can't get in, you should go back with me!" The old man persuaded me bitterly.
"It's okay, you get the boat ashore and I get off." Lu Yi said.
"Hey, you are young, why don't you listen to persuasion." The old man said helplessly, "Boss, there are some game dishes in our village. Why don't you come back and try it with me?"
"Don't worry about me, I really won't be okay, I just go in and take a look, if there is any danger, I will come out immediately." Lu Yi said.
"Boss, the mountains are too dangerous, so don't go..." The old man stopped halfway through his words, and saw Lu Yi holding a stack of red banknotes, less than four to five thousand.
"You stop the boat at the beach, the money is yours." Lu Yi said.
The old man swallowed, then shook his head vigorously, and said: "No, I can't just watch the boss go to death. I can't earn money with conscience."
Lu Yi took out another wad of red banknotes, this time more, ten thousand.
"As long as you land and put me down, all the money in my hands is yours, and I entered the mountain voluntarily. If anything happens, it has nothing to do with you."
The old man stared at the money in Lu Yi's hand. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll let you down by the shore, but be careful. If you think something is wrong, come back quickly. I'll wait for you here. "
Lu Yi smiled and handed the money to the old man.
"Thank you boss." The old man accepted the money, rowed the wooden boat to the shore, and put down Lu Yi.
"You go back, don't wait for me." Lu Yi said.
"Boss, you must be careful, if there is any danger, come back immediately, I will wait for you here." The old man warned.
"You don't have to wait for me, you go back, I will be fine."
"I'm still waiting for you here. I will feel better only if I see you come back safely." The old man got off the boat, found a tree, and tied the rope to the tree.
Lu Yi shook his head helplessly, and said to the old man, "If you insist on staying here, please be safe."
"The boss doesn't need to worry about me, just hope you come back safely." The old man said.
"Don't worry, I will return safely." Lu Yi smiled, then calmly entered the mountain.
It is worthy of a hundred thousand mountains, the mountains are tall and continuous, with ancient trees towering into the sky, and walking inside during the day feels terrible.
Lu Yi is also a daring master of art, not afraid at all, and calmly walks into the forest.
It was okay at the beginning. After going over two mountains in a row, the temperature still got colder. Even though Lu Yixiu was an extraordinary talent, he still felt a bit of chill here.
Wherever he went, there were ancient trees everywhere, and the old trees grew bigger and bigger. In the end, nine pine trees appeared in Lu Yi's sight.
These nine pine trees grow on a bare mountain, towering into the clouds. Each one needs at least 20 people to hug each other. The branches are strong and powerful, like a nine-year-old Kowloon looking at the forest and the sea, with great momentum.
The nine pine trees are tangled together, like a cloud shed, with green leaves and luxuriant branches.
As soon as Lu Yi arrived here, he felt a strong breath of life. He closed his eyes and felt it carefully. Lu Yi discovered that this strong breath of life came from the top of nine pine trees.
Lu Yi immediately opened the sky and looked up at the top of the pine tree. When he saw it clearly, his heart jumped wildly, and he saw a small golden tree growing on the top of nine pine trees.
