    new campsite

    Ning Ping, who came back, told Lin Ke and the others exactly what he saw. Lin Ke and the others couldn't help but feel a little sad when they heard that the final result of the battle was like that.  But when you are done lamenting, you should seize the time to rest.

    "Lianpeng, stop looking at the crystal ball and rest. You have to get up early tomorrow." Lin Ke said softly to Lianpeng who was looking at the crystal ball.  The showerhead replied without raising his head: "Yes, I'll go to sleep right away." Lin Ke didn't say much when he saw this, yawned and got into his sleeping bag, and fell asleep after a while.

    The bonfire needs someone to take care of it, and Ning Ping and Field will guard it for half the night.  First, Ning Ping took care of him and sat silently by the bonfire. When the bonfire weakened, Ning Ping picked up a few dry firewood and threw them into the bonfire.  Looking at the burning bonfire, Ning Ping, who was doing nothing, looked around boredly, and suddenly his eyes froze.  In the light of the campfire, a shadow seemed to be moving.  But when Ning Ping took a closer look, he found that he seemed to be dazzled.

    Ning Ping smiled self-deprecatingly, shook his head slightly, stood up, picked up the Qingyun Sword and started dancing.  Under the illumination of the moonlight, a figure stood by the bonfire and danced his sword slowly, comprehending the true meaning of the sword.

    After about a cup of tea, Ningping stopped to add some dry wood to the weakened campfire.  Suddenly, he was slightly startled. The tree shadow was clearly on his left before, but why was it on his right this time?  I looked at where I was standing. Yes, there was no change from where I was standing just now.  Since there is no change here.  The thing that changed must be the shadow of the tree.  He turned around sharply.  Ning Ping stared closely at the tree on the right.

    He didn’t say anything, because Ning Ping was not sure whether he was dazzled and rashly woke up Lin Ke and others. If it wasn’t that, it would be embarrassing.  So before making sure, Ning Ping walked to the tree alone.  After carefully looking at the tree in front of me, there was no difference between it and the surrounding trees.  I reached out and touched it, but I didn't encounter a sudden attack.

    "Did I really remember it wrong?" Ning Ping said to himself.

    In the dead of night, naturally no one responded to Ning Ping’s soliloquy.  Ning Ping shook his head vigorously to wake himself up a little.  He turned around and was about to go back to sit by the bonfire, but as soon as he turned around, he immediately turned back and took out the Qingyun Sword in his hand.  The four characters "come here for a visit" were engraved on the tree.  After finishing this matter, Ning Ping looked at the time and found that it was already time to change shifts. He immediately pushed Field up and yawned to rest.

    After an uneventful night, the first thing Ning Ping did when he woke up was to run to the tree that aroused his suspicion last night and found that the words he had carved on it last night were still there.

    "Visiting here? Ning Ping, did you carve this?" Lin Ke read the words carved on the tree and asked Ning Ping.

    Ning Ping nodded when he heard this and replied: "Well, I carved it last night when I had nothing to do. Are you ready? If so, let's set off."

    ……

    Night falls.  It was another fruitless day, but according to Lianpeng, "They are very close to the wishing tree now." But where is the wishing tree?  But the lotus pods cannot be said.

    Like the arrangement last night, Ninh Binh was guarded until midnight.  Yawning out of boredom, Ning Ping accidentally caught a glimpse of something and was shocked. However, Ning Ping remained calm at this time.  Still sitting by the bonfire and looking after the bonfire as if nothing happened.  After waiting for a while, Ningping got up and walked into the woods. After solving the excretion problem, he did not return from the original route.  Instead, he went around to the back of the thing he had discovered before, slowly drew out the Qingyun Sword, and unexpectedly attacked the tree he had targeted.

    The noise alarmed Lin Ke and others. When Lin Ke and others saw Ning Ping using the Qingyun Sword to chop or chip a tree with sleepy eyes, everyone was shocked.  Lin Ke rushed forward regardless of the danger and shouted: "What happened to Ningping?"

    "Don't come over! There's something weird about this tree!" Ning Ping yelled.  Lin Ke stopped.

    ……

    When Ning Ping stopped attacking, Lin Ke walked closer.  He looked at Ning Ping and asked, "What happened?"

    “This tree is the one we met at the campsite last time.” Ning Ping explained to Lin Ke, pointing to the tree that was chopped down beyond recognition.

    Lin Ke heard this and asked, "What's the proof?"

    “This is the evidence!” Ning Ping said to Lin Ke, pointing to the four big characters carved on the tree.  Lin Ke looked along the place pointed by Ning Ping, and sure enough, the four words "Visit Here" were carved on the tree trunk.

    Lin Ke believed Ning Ping's explanation, but then looked at Ning Ping suspiciously and asked: "Ning Ping, with your skill, you can clearly cut this tree in two with one sword, why did you waste so much time just now?"When Ning Ping heard this, he also said with some annoyance: "I originally planned to force the guy hiding in the dark out like this, but I didn't expect that guy was so calm. He didn't react at all even after the tree was chopped down like this.  Makes me look like a fool."

    "Anyway, things are like this now. I don't know why this tree is following us? Anyway, let's be more careful."

    Hearing what Lin Ke said, Ning Ping nodded in agreement and said, "That's what I mean. Please pay attention when you rest in the future and don't sleep too hard. I'm worried that there will be strange things waiting for us."

    Field and Lianpeng nodded in agreement.

    The matter came to an end here, but when daybreak, Ningping and others discovered that the tree that had been cut down by Ningping last night had disappeared beyond recognition.  It was only then that Field and Lianpeng truly believed that what Ning Ping did last night was not a sudden mental disorder.

    "Humph, I knew you two guys didn't believe me." Ning Ping snorted angrily and said to Field and Lianpeng who looked embarrassed.

    Field heard the words and explained with a smile: "Actually, you can't blame me and Lianpeng for this. Others would have doubts after seeing it."

    "Huh!" Ning Ping snorted coldly.

    Lin Ke on the side said to smooth things over: "Okay Ningping. The matter is clear. What should we do next? Let's continue looking for the wishing tree."

    "Of course, isn't the purpose of our coming here just to find the wishing tree? If we don't find the wishing tree, what will we do back?" Ning Ping replied immediately.

    Hearing Ning Ping’s answer, Lin Ke felt relieved, and turned to Lian Peng and said: “Lian Peng, start divination, we are about to start taking action.”

    "Yeah." Lianpeng responded softly, holding the crystal ball in both hands with a solemn look on her face.

    ……

    After staring at the crystal ball for a while, Lianpeng looked up at Ning Ping and others with a somewhat depressed look and said, "I have good news. There is also bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

    Ning Ping couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said, "We have heard enough bad news during this period, let's make peace first."

    "The good news is that we found the wishing tree." Lotus Peng said slowly.

    "Where?" Lin Ke asked hurriedly.  However, he was stopped by Ning Ping.  Then Ning Ping asked again: "What about the bad news?"

    “The bad news is there’s more than one wishing tree, and we’re surrounded.”

    "Ah?! Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Field was shocked when he heard this, and then blamed Lianpeng.  Lianpeng smiled bitterly and explained to Field: "Because when I was doing the divination, I discovered that we were already surrounded."

    "Are these trees around us the wishing trees?" Field looked around and asked the lotus.

    In fact, there is no need for lotus pods to answer. Just after Field asked this question, the surrounding trees have already given Field the answer with their actions.

    "You are too much!" An elegantly dressed young woman came out from behind a big tree. Even if she was angry, she still looked pleasing to the eye.

    "Excuse me. Who are you?" Ning Ping asked tentatively.

    "Hmph! You bad guy, our child provoked you, and you treated her like that?" The young woman became furious when she saw Ning Ping, and asked Ning Ping with a pair of almond-shaped eyes.

    Ning Ping shrank his neck and stepped aside.  Seeing this, Lin Ke took a step forward, bowed to the young woman and saluted: "Please forgive us for being rude. Our companion was seriously injured and is unconscious now. We were anxious, so we took some drastic actions. Please also  You can forgive. If you want us to pay, please let us repay our sins after rescuing our comatose companions."

    Hearing this, the young woman glanced at Lin Ke curiously and asked, "Why is the companion you mentioned unconscious?"

    "Keya!" A middle-aged man reminded the young woman loudly.  The young woman shook her head at the man and said softly: "Listen to their reasons first. Anyway, they don't want to evade responsibility."

    The man closed his mouth when he heard this.  However, he and his companions stared at Ning Ping closely.

    Lin Ke told the young woman named Keya everything about Han Yu.  Including the young woman, all the "people" present nodded secretly in their hearts.

    "Your companions are great. But that doesn't mean you can hurt others willfully." Keya looked at Lin Ke and said sternly.

    "I know, so we don't intend to evade our responsibilities. We just hope that you can lend a helping hand and save my companions. We will be very grateful.".  "Lin Ke bent down and saluted.

    In response to Lin Ke’s request, Keya looked embarrassed and looked back at the man who had spoken to her earlier.  After receiving Keya's questioning look, the man immediately refused: "No, we won't help those who hurt our people."

    "If you want to take it out, please take it out on me. I promise that I will never fight back. Please also help my companions." Ning Ping stepped forward and said.

    Hearing this, the man looked Ning Ping up and down, and said sarcastically: "Do you think you are strong? With your ability, you are no match for the person who was hurt. The reason why she didn't fight back was because she didn't want to  Hurt you."

    "I'm sorry. Please tell me how to calm you down, if it takes my life"

    "Ningping!" Lin Ke shouted hurriedly from the side.

    "We are not butchers. We will not be excited by killing, nor will we be happy by hurting others. If you want to atone for your sins, have you seen that mountain?" The man pointed at Ningping.  A peak behind him continued: "That is the highest peak in the Rocky Mountains. There is a kind of snow lotus growing there, which can remove scars. If you can find the snow lotus, then I will agree to help your companion.  .Remember. You can only fulfill this requirement alone."

    "Okay. I hope you keep your word." Ning Ping looked at the man and said without hesitation.

    The man was stunned when Ning Ping agreed to his request without hesitation, but then reminded Ning Ping: "Don't think that picking snowdrops is easy. In addition to the unpredictable weather on that mountain peak, you have to be careful in your life."  There are all kinds of creatures there. Don’t miss the snowdrops and lose your life instead.”

    "Thank you for your reminder, but my companion is still in a coma. He always stood up for us in the past, and this time it is our turn to stand up for him. Lin Ke, Field, Lianpeng, you go back and wait for the news.  By the way, tell Mengxin that I will definitely bring back the branches of the wishing tree."

    Hearing this, Lin Ke said in a deep voice: "Ning Ping, we are a collective"

    Before Lin Ke could finish speaking, Ning Ping shook his head and said, "Didn't you listen to what this person said just now? I can only fulfill this request alone. Since the disaster was caused by me, I should naturally bear the consequences alone." After that,  Ning Ping turned to leave.

    "Wait a minute!" Just when Ning Ping was about to leave, the man shouted.

    "Is there anything else?" Ning Ping turned around and asked.

    "You can leave, but your companions cannot leave. We will take them away and redeem them when you bring Snow Lotus back." The man said in a deep voice.

    "this……"

    Without waiting for Ning Ping to refuse, Lin Ke said: "Yes, we can stay as hostages, but please let one of us go back to Xuanyue Town to tell our remaining companions. I don't want them to think that we have had an accident."  .”

    "Then you can only leave one person." The man turned around and discussed with everyone.  Said to Lin Ke.

    "Thank you." Lin Ke thanked him and said to Field: "Field, it's up to you to go back and report the news."

    "Me?" Field asked with some surprise. He originally thought that the person leaving would be Lotus Pang.

    "Yes, it's you. I think only you can return to Xuanyue Town safely." Lin Ke nodded and said to Field.

    After hearing this, Field thought for a while and nodded in agreement with Lin Ke's statement, but he still said a little uneasy: "What about you and Lianpeng?"

    "Don't worry, Lianpeng and I will be fine." Lin Ke replied with a smile.

    “What if, what if?” Field asked.

    "If then please find a way to revive Han Yu." Lin Ke thought for a while.  Said softly to Field.

    Field: ""

    Because of the sudden appearance of the Wishing Tree family, Ningping and his party’s search for the Wishing Tree can be considered half completed.  Just because of Ning Ping's attack, the result after finding the wishing tree was not perfect.  Field returned to Xuanyue Town to report the news, Lin Ke and Lian Peng stayed with the Wishing Tree family as hostages, while Ning Ping went alone to the top of Rocky Mountain where snowdrops grew.

    Watching Ning Ping and Field leave.  Lin Ke bit his lip gently and asked the wishing tree named Keya: "Where are we going now? Are we going to stay here and wait?"

    "Of course not. We will take you back to our tribe. Feel honored, you are the first human to enter our tribe."

    "Humans? Aren't you humans?" Lin Ke was shocked when he heard this, looked at Keya warily, stretched out his hand to protect the lotus pods on his face.??Behind.

    Keya smiled upon seeing this and explained to Lin Ke: "Of course we are not human beings. Of course we are not the wishing tree you think. We are the elves who guard the wishing tree." As he said that, Keya's appearance slowly changed.  A sudden change, an extremely delicate face appeared in front of Lin Ke's eyes, making Lin Ke suddenly feel ashamed of himself.

    "Elf? Isn't that a legendary creature?" Lotus Peng, who was protected by Lin Ke, suddenly asked. At the same time, his head popped up from behind Lin Ke and looked at Keya curiously.

    "Legend has it that we are the children of Elune, the goddess of nature. But where did we come from? We don't know. From the moment we were born, we knew that our mission was to protect the Tree of Life. Oh, that's what you said.  The wishing tree.”

    "Then if you take us to your tribe, will it be against the rules?" Lin Ke asked aloud.

    Keya immediately replied: "Don't worry, you are prisoners, and you will be under my care after arriving at the tribe. At that time, you can't go anywhere except staying in the house."

    After hearing what Keya said, Lin Ke nodded slightly and asked, "Then if Ning Ping comes back, where will he find us?"

    "We will leave a companion here to wait here. If the Ningping you mentioned can really come back from the top of Rocky Mountain, someone will lead him back to the tribe to join you."

    "In that case, let's go. Do you need to tie us up?"

    Hearing this, Keya replied confidently: "No, you two have no way to escape from us."

    The words were true, but Keya said them too directly, which made Lin Ke and Lian Peng feel a little embarrassed.  Lin Ke changed the subject and said, "Can you let me see the elf who was hurt? I want to apologize to her in person."

    "Well, let's forget it. She is in a very low mood now. If she sees you"

    "No problem, you can go see her. But please try not to irritate her." Before Keya could finish speaking, the male elf who had previously spoken to Lin Ke and others spoke.

    By this time, both the male and female elves had returned to their original appearance. Lin Ke looked at the male elf and felt a little disappointed.  The male elf is handsome, but a bit slender, and in Han Yu's words, a bit effeminate.

    “Tiger, is this okay?” Keya asked the man who interrupted her softly.

    "What's wrong? With us following, are we still afraid of these two people playing tricks? Besides, Cynthia has always liked humans. Maybe she will feel better after meeting these two people."

    Hearing Tiger’s explanation, Keya nodded thoughtfully.  To be continued.  .
