Chapter 351: Finding a Tree

Mo Chenyan gave Lin Ze a look, and the latter took out three hundred US dollars and handed it over.

Lil counted the three hundred dollars again and again, laughing so hard that his eyes disappeared.

"Can you tell me what you are doing up the mountain? Carrying guns, are you going hunting?" Lil guessed.

"We need to find a plum tree. Don't delay. Take us up the mountain quickly."

"Oh, wait, I have to go home and get some equipment. There are too many plum trees on the mountain. I have to be prepared, otherwise we will easily freeze to death in this weather."

Before getting off the car, the bodyguards following Mo Chenyan were equipped with all the necessary food and drinks.

The ten people followed Lil back to his hometown in the town. The house was dilapidated and extremely deserted.

"I live alone here."

After Lil finished speaking, he returned to his room, put on a thicker cotton jacket, and walked out holding an old hunting rifle in his hand.

"There are all kinds of wild animals in the mountains. It's very dangerous. We'd better not spend the night in the mountains."

He straightened his hat and glanced at the sky, "A blizzard is coming."

Mo Chenyan didn't care about the blizzard or the wild animals, he just wanted to find his mother today.

The memories before the age of twelve are indeed profound, and he still remembers the existence of the plum tree.

But now more than ten years have passed, and the untouched areas in the mountains have long since changed. Even if he comes back, he won't be able to find the direction. Having someone to lead him is the best option.

"We're going up the mountain, can you keep up?"

After such a long time, this was the first sentence Mo Chenyan took the initiative to say to Yun Lanyue.

"Phew, I can."

Yun Lanyue pushed down the plush hat on her head and put her hands into her gloves.

She practices Taekwondo and has good physical fitness. It's just mountain climbing, of course she can keep up.

A group of eleven people walked into the forest next to the town in the gloomy weather.

Black gun gang.

"Brother, these are the people who showed up in the territory today. There are ten of them in total, and they are heading towards the town."

Cami handed a stack of photos to the man at the top.

The man was flipping through the photos, and his eyes fixed when he saw the tall man in the crowd.

He pointed his finger at the man's face and said with a wicked smile, "You are back after all, Xiao Huo. No, Lord Fire King."

"Give orders to surround the town and bring him back alive if he shows up."

"Be careful not to hurt him."

He wanted to kill him himself and let him die in despair.

The fingertips moved to Yun Lanyue's head behind Mo Chenyan, and the man murmured: "Xiao Huo, is she your weak spot?"

After waiting for more than ten years for hatred, I never expected that there would be a day of revenge.

"Thank you for falling into my trap."

On the mountain.

Mo Chenyan and Lin Ze protected Yun Lanyue in the middle, with the remaining bodyguards five in front and five in the back, and everyone climbed the mountain with difficulty.

"There are bears, tigers and wolves in the mountains, so few people go up there these days."

As long as they can survive, people will not go up the mountain easily to save their lives.

"What kind of plum tree are you looking for? How far is it from the town? What are its characteristics?"

Lil asked breathlessly as he used his dagger to cut through the grass and branches that blocked his way.

Wearing too thick clothes makes it inconvenient to do anything. I will gasp for air if I move a little.

The same thing happened to Yun Lanyue. She overestimated herself and wore too thick clothes when walking through the mountains and forests. Even though she had good physical strength, she was exhausted after walking for more than an hour.

Lil said they had just reached the edge of the forest.

How high is this mountain?

And why did Mo Chenyan travel thousands of miles to this dangerous place to find the plum tree?

She swallowed hard, and once the plum tree was found, she would have the answer.

Mo Chenyan thought about it carefully and realized that his memory of the plum tree remained from his childhood.

"It's a red plum tree. There's a stone under the tree you can sit on. It's taller than me, and it's not far from the town."

In the past, whenever he felt wronged or lost, he would always come to this red plum tree. He didn't feel how far the distance was.

During training in the organization, the coach would often tie sandbags on their bodies, throw them into the mountains and forests, and let them run cross-country for ten or twenty kilometers back.

There was no food, no water, and everything depended on unyielding willpower.

"Oh my God, you're not talking about something that happened more than ten years ago, are you? There were many plum trees not far from the town back then, maybe the one you're talking about was one of them."

Lil took a deep breath. "But the nearest plum tree to the town is still more than an hour's walk away. God bless you, don't get lost."

Mo Chenyan grasped the key point, "Where are the plum trees around the town?"

"Most of them are cut down and taken home for firewood, so we have to go deeper into the mountains to find plum trees."

Mo Chenyan slipped and Lin Ze quickly supported him.

"Sir, how about we go look around the plum tree he mentioned being cut down?"

How can we continue the search for someone when the only characteristic plum tree has been cut down?

Under Lil's leadership, everyone came to the vicinity of the cut plum tree, which was indeed very close to the town.

"It's right here. The one under my feet is the stump of a chopped-down plum tree. There are about ten trees around here. You can look for them."

Yun Lanyue knew the plum tree, so she walked around and found two plum tree stumps.

What Mo Chenyan was doing was squatting around each plum tree stump and carefully investigating.
