Necromantic Myth

  Chapter 29 So That's It

"So this is ah."

  In a safe place, Liu Zhi had already looked through the contents of Perkin’s bag. At this time, he had put together the purpose of Perkin’s trip through various clues.

Unlike Liu Zhi’s use of various parchment papers to record maps and materials, Perkin has money and status. In addition to high-calorie foods and a few luminous objects that are not useful, there is also a book in his bag. A notebook that is quite rare in the age.

  The notebook is made of normal paper. Liu Zhi is more accustomed to using it, but in this era, there are really not many things, and the texture is not as good as this notebook.

  A lot of information is written on the notebook, and there are some patterns.

  As you can see from the content above, Perkin is dying.

  He should have some serious disease. His life is less than three weeks, and his only hope now is a plant in this jungle.

This kind of plant has never been brought out. The local indigenous people call it "Namuda", which means a tree with blood. According to legend, this kind of tree is usually similar to an ordinary tree, and there is no way to get it from the leaves or other aspects. Distinguish it.

  The only information I know is that this tree grows on the edge of a cliff waterfall, and it needs a lot of water and air to grow.

  Every seven years, when the month of July and 15th is full, the tree will bloom a kind of red flower within three days, and all the leaves will fall and become a red tree.

  Under the moonlight, this tree looks like a blood-colored tree, which is why the locals call it a ‘blood tree’.

  And it is not the flowers of this tree that really attract Perkin, but after blooming, this tree will grow a kind of fruit like a peach.

  The fruit is small, only the size of a thumb, but it has the effect of inhibiting diseases and prolonging life.

  Perkin only needs to get a few fruits, and his illness can be relieved. If he gets all the fruits this time, he may even be immortal.

  Looking at the ambition recorded in the notebook, Liu Zhi couldn't help but shook his head.

  It seems that this is the goal of Perkin's trip. On the one hand, it is to save lives, and on the other hand, it is also for his future power. When this kind of thing is brought to human society, it can definitely become a stepping stone to open up the upper class.

  Those who are rich and powerful will desperately invest all their resources for the continuation of their lives.

  But what does it have to do with me.

   Turning over the contents of the back of the notebook, Liu Zhi put it away. Immortality is meaningless to him, especially the power of this world.

  He will only stay in this world for at most one hundred and eighty days, no matter how powerful it is, what is the use.

  On the contrary, the Golden City is more attractive to him. At least the existence of the Golden City is related to the mandatory task of his identity.

  So this kind of notebook, which is considered a treasure for some adventurers in this world, was placed at the bottom of the backpack by Ryuzhi.

  It was the other things in Perkin's backpack that attracted Liu Zhi's attention.

  The props Perkin took out of his backpack twice before proved that the things that glow are not ordinary items.

  So Ryuzhi is more curious about what the remaining things are.

  Now there are a total of four items in the bag. Ryuzhi did not underestimate them because of their inconspicuous appearance, but put them away carefully and carefully.

  These four items are respectively a piece of skin from an unknown beast, and the fur on the other side looks quite fresh.

A quill-like thing, the color of the feather is normal white, and the notes are decorated with copper, and it looks like it can last a long time. If it weren’t for the white light on it, Liu Zhi would even think this is the same as that notebook. Used in conjunction.

  A tube that looks like a lipstick, Liu Zhi is a little skeptical at this time. They are studying whether they are red in this era.

  Finally, there was something like a kettle. It was made of pure silver with some ancient mythological patterns carved on it. It was gently shaking, and there were some sounds in it.

  Without knowing what's in it, Liu Zhi didn't plan to take a look.

  After putting everything away, Liu Zhi simply removed Perkin’s backpack.

  He found two things similar to the title deeds from the cracks in the backpack. Upon closer inspection, he found that they were actually the deeds of a nearby port. He didn't know if this was Perkin's last preparation or his secret base.

  After confirming that no other items were missing, Liu Zhi put his backpack on his back again, took out the map and checked the direction, and headed towards the golden city.

  At the same time, Perkin and Lloyd were walking carefully in the jungle.

  Perkin's face was a little blue at this time, and his lips were a little purple, but he still walked hard, not letting himself stop.

  Lloyd, who was holding Perkin, said, "Uncle, let's go back or not."

   "No, we are all here. I am not reconciled if we don’t go forward. Besides, are you reconciled? This is the hope of our family’s re-emergence."

   "But so many of us entered the jungle, and now there are only two of us left, I am worried..."

   "There is nothing to worry about. All the information is in my mind. As long as we can walk, we will definitely be able to walk under the tree with blood."

  "No, uncle, this is not what I worry about. You have seen so many giant snakes along the way. I am worried about whether there is something wrong with it."

Perkin laughed as soon as he heard it, "Do you think I didn't see it? You have followed me on expeditions for so many years, and you have no power of observation. Didn't you find that these giant snakes are ordinary snake species? What does this show? This shows that the legend of the **** tree is true. Those snakes have survived since ancient times after eating the fruit of the **** tree. And snakes are different from humans. Snakes shed their skins once a year, and their heads become bigger. , This is telling us that the legend is true and immortality is right in front of us."

   Listening to Perkin’s words, Lloyd also believed a few others, "But uncle, just the two of us, can we steal back the fruit of the **** tree?"

"It’s not the two of us. My bag was taken away. The person who took the bag will definitely find the message I left. As long as it’s a human being, it’s impossible to escape the temptation of immortality. After we get there, find someone The place lies in ambush, waiting for the thief who took my bag to find him, let him take the lead, and when he gets the fruit, you can do it again, Lloyd, how is your swordsmanship practice during this time?"

   "Don't worry, uncle, I have mastered it..."
