Chapitre 253: Bottle Tree
"Finally safe."
After entering the ancient city, Feng Hetang saw that the beasts didn't follow him into the city. He was panting heavily, as if he had just survived a calamity.
"However, this place actually has such an ancient city." "Could it be that there were once humans living here?" Jiang Yaru looked around and realized that the interior of the city was connected in all directions. The layout was complete, just like an ancient capital.
In the distance, there were many simple and unadorned houses. However, they were not as prosperous as they used to be. There was rubble everywhere, and houses had collapsed. Some of the rocks had even been weathered. No one knew how long it had been since someone had lived there.
The walls were engraved with ancient runes and exuded a mysterious aura. It was unknown what kind of civilization this was.
"There must be someone living there."
Nangong Wu said in a low voice, "This place is known as a ruin by the examiners." There were probably creatures who lived here before, but they've all disappeared now. I don't know if they've gone extinct or left.
"There are people living in such a harsh environment." Chu Rong widened her beautiful eyes because the temperature difference between day and night in this place was too big. Normal people would die if they lived here.
"It might not be a human either." "It might be a living being from another race." Nangong Wu's eyes sparkled.
Xia Ping rubbed his chin. "Since this is a ruin, it means that there might be treasures here." We might be able to find a treasure. Then we'll be rich."
He rubbed his palms together as he recalled the story of someone entering the ruins and finding a large number of treasures, thus becoming rich overnight.
"You wish."
Jiang Yaru said grumpily, "But this ruin has already been explored by people long ago." It has probably been dug up by the government. Everything has been plundered clean. "How can we still have a share?"
Chu Rong and Nangong Wu nodded as well. This ruin space had been known for hundreds of years. Even if there were any treasures in this ruin, they had been taken away by others.
"Since there are living creatures living here, does that mean there are living facilities here as well?" Maybe we can find a place to drink water?" Feng Hetang asked.
"There is indeed the smell of water here." Follow me." Xia Ping closed his eyes and used the Thousand Miles Tracking Spell to sense the surrounding air and distinguish the smell.
With a whoosh, he immediately ran towards the east.
Jiang Yaru and the others looked at each other in surprise and quickly followed.
They ran for more than ten kilometers, passing countless collapsed houses along the way. Finally, they arrived in front of a huge palace. It looked very majestic.
Unfortunately, after the passage of time, many buildings had collapsed and turned into ruins.
Xia Ping ignored this and entered the palace. After turning left and right, he entered the depths of the palace. He seemed to have arrived at a garden. The surroundings were vast, and an empty space appeared.
Immediately, they saw a huge tree growing in the clearing. From afar, this tree looked like a bottle growing on the ground. It was more than a hundred meters tall, with two sharp ends and a large center. The thickest part was ten meters in diameter, and many branches grew on its tip, spreading out like fans.
"Oh, my God. We're rich. We're rich."
Upon seeing this tree, Feng Hetang immediately became excited and shouted, "I've seen this plant in botany before." This is a wine bottle tree. "It's a magical plant from the desert."
"The bottle in the middle contains a large amount of water." "As long as a small hole is made on it, large amounts of water will flow out and quench the thirst of the people in the desert."
"This is simply the Tree of Life on the desert land."
Seeing the appearance of this plant, Jiang Yaru and the others were extremely excited. They knew that finding such a plant was equivalent to finding a real water source.
They did not expect that strange plants would still survive under such high temperatures. It was a miracle of nature.
Even though they had eaten the gemstone fruits to replenish their energy, their bodies still lacked water. Furthermore, under such high temperatures, the loss of water was even faster.
If they couldn't find a water source, they would be dead.
Xia Ping stepped forward and poked his finger at the tree. A small hole appeared and water flowed out of it, bringing with it a cool smell.
Jiang Yaru and the others immediately went forward and drank the water greedily. They instantly tasted a sweet taste. This was an unprecedented feeling, and the water was extremely clean.
After being filtered by this magical plant, there were no parasitic creatures in the water. It was extremely safe.
Swish!
Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound rang out from the distance. A terrifying arrow shot over from the distance, tearing through the air like a sniper bullet.
With a bang, the arrow struck the ground in front of Xia Ping and the others, instantly creating a huge crater. The ground shook, and soil flew everywhere, instantly producing more than ten terrifying cracks.
Who?!
Jiang Yaru and the others immediately woke up and looked ahead. They saw more than ten people running over from afar. One of them was standing on the roof, holding a strong bow, and aiming at them.
It was as if the arrow was a threat, a warning!
"Huh?!"
Xia Ping's eyes flashed. He saw those people quickly running over, all of them with disheveled hair, gasping for breath, and sweat dripping down their backs. Even though they looked extremely miserable, their expressions were excited. They had also noticed this wine bottle tree.
"HAHA! The heavens have not forsaken us; The heavens have not forsaken us!"
"After running for hundreds of kilometers and encountering a few beast tides, I almost thought that I was doomed.
"I can't believe I found a bottle tree here. There must be water here.
"Undoubtedly. Didn't you see anyone arriving here and still enjoying their drinks? "Look at these chicks; their clothes are all wet."
"Damn it, it's such a waste of water. "Don't you know that in this godforsaken place, even a drop of water is priceless?!"
"Get these guys to scram immediately." "This wine bottle tree belongs to us."
These dozen or so examinees were extremely excited, pointing to that wine bottle tree, all of them wishing to drink the water.
"Kid, scram immediately!"
A student with a crew cut yelled at Xia Ping and the others, "This wine bottle tree belongs to Yanzhou District now." "Get lost before we get angry."
"If you're late, I'll break three of your legs."
His attitude was extremely arrogant, as if he did not place Xia Ping and the others in his eyes at all.
Xia Ping ignored the crew cut candidate's attitude because the aura coming from afar was not just from the crew cut candidate's group.
