Chapter 305



As a river of life, the Mojin River breeds and nurtures various animals and plants in the surrounding area.

The dense forests on the shore are like a green belt of life, which makes people happy.

Song Tiantian and the others, sweating profusely from the intense sunlight, breathed a sigh of relief once they entered the woods. "Huh, the woods are still so comfortable."

He Jingnian wiped the sweat off his forehead with his clothes. "Yeah, why does the sun feel even hotter today than when we were in the Gobi Desert yesterday?"

"Yes, and there's no wind today." Song Tiantian's eyes lit up as she spoke: "Jia Jia, look, there are actually raspberries here."

Xu Anjia looked over hurriedly: "Where is it? Where is it?"

"Here!" Song Tiantian hurried forward and came to the bottom of a bush, where a bunch of bright red raspberries were hiding underneath.

Upon seeing this, Xu Anjia immediately cheered: "It really is raspberry! I didn't expect there are raspberries here."

"Of course we do," Wuketu said to them. "But we don't call it raspberry here. We call it mountain raspberry."

"It doesn't matter whether it's raspberry or mountain raspberry, as long as it tastes good." He Jingnian said, and hurriedly threw the picked fruit into his mouth.

"Niannian, you haven't washed yet!" Song Tiantian called out to him.

"It's okay. My dad said that eating dirty food won't make you sick."

"No, you still have to wash it clean, otherwise you will have a stomachache if you eat too much." As she said that, Song Tiantian hurriedly took out a bottle of water from her bag and handed it to him.

Under Song Tiantian's gaze, He Jingnian could only unscrew the water bottle and rinse it a few times before throwing it into his mouth: "Wow, so sweet, you guys should try it too."

"Hmm." Song Tiantian and the others washed the raspberries they picked and started eating them.

“Wow, it’s really delicious!”

"It tastes sweet and delicious, and has a milky flavor." Xiangfangnan, who doesn't like fruits very much, also speaks highly of raspberries.

After tasting the raspberries, Song Tiantian also found the wild pears that Wuketu mentioned.

Don't underestimate these wild pears. They are only as big as a fist, a bit rough and have a big core, but once you peel off the skin and take a bite, you will be amazed by their taste.

Look, Xu Anjia, who originally wanted to dislike the ugly appearance of wild pears, immediately picked a lot of wild pears and put them into the bucket after taking a bite.

"Tiantian, let's pick more and give some to my dad and Uncle Lu and the others to try later."

"Uh-huh!"

Not to mention He Jingnian, who was seen holding half a wild pear in one mouth while busy picking all the ripe wild pears from the short tree with the other hand.

Xiangfangnan looked at Song Tiantian and the others who were picking wild fruits and had already forgotten about treasure hunting. He couldn't help but silently take a bite of the wild pear while continuing to pack the wild pears they picked.

[Gulp... Is this wild pear really that delicious? ]

[Of course, otherwise, even if Tiantian and the others were picky eaters, they wouldn't have nearly plucked out all the pears from this wild pear tree!]

[This fruit is probably one of those ugly-looking, but delicious fruits, right? Wait, does anyone remember what Tiantian and the others were planning to do just now?]

[Picking fruit to quench my thirst... No, aren't we going to hunt for treasure? Will we just keep picking fruit and never stop?]

[We were so engrossed in picking fruit that we almost forgot about our main business. But, can Tiantian and the others still remember to look for treasure?]

"We didn't just bet on them finding the treasure today, and then we immediately got slapped in the face, right?"

Fortunately, there is a reliable person among Song Tiantian and her group.

While Song Tiantian and the others were busy picking fruits, Xiang Nan inadvertently led them towards the place where the treasure was buried.

The system silently paid attention to Xiangfangnan's behavior, and couldn't help but admire his amazing talent in mental power. After being briefly guided by Tiantian's mental power, he was able to actively use his mental power without anyone's guidance.

Just when the system wanted to remind its somewhat naive host, Xiangfang Nan glanced at it.

This glance made the system's chip jump, as if it had been seen through by him.

But then I thought, it is a product of interstellar high technology, how could it be seen through by a human?

Thinking of this, the system felt relieved again.

At this time, Song Tiantian also remembered that they were here to look for the tomb-robbing treasure. Thinking of this, Song Tiantian subconsciously exerted her mental power to once again determine the location of the treasure.

After this confirmation, Song Tiantian was stunned: "Huh?"

Xiang Nan looked towards her: "What's wrong?"

Song Tiantian blinked and looked at the golden beam of light that was so close: "Nothing."

"Should we still pick fruit?"

"No, we are here to hunt for treasure today. How can we just keep picking fruits?" When Song Tiantian said this, she did not forget to put the small white apricots in her hand into the bucket that was already full of water.

Xiangfangnan pursed his lips and smiled: "You are right, then where should we go to find the treasure now?"

"Go ahead." Song Tiantian said without thinking, pointing to a pine tree not far away.

The system looked at its host's foolish and unguarded appearance, and for some reason it finally understood why there was the word "tired".

[Great, Tiantian finally remembered to go treasure hunting, but isn't the direction she's pointing a little off?]

[Yes, shouldn't the treasure be in the riverbank? Why did Tiantian go into the woods?]

[Uh...could it be because there's a wild grape plant next to that pine tree?]

Just as this comment was posted, Song Tiantian, who had already arrived under the pine tree, shouted to Xiang Nan with a look of surprise, "Nan Nan, come and see, there's a wild grape plant here, with so many grapes on it."

[Get the prophet upstairs out of here! ]

[So, Tiantian still hasn't figured out what to do, right?]

"Okay, I get it. Let's continue picking grapes. I don't think Tiantian and the others would even think about treasure hunting anymore."

Fortunately, Song Tiantian is still a reliable girl. After peeling a wild grape and tasting it, she quickly gave up the idea of ​​picking grapes. She picked up the shovel placed aside and started shoveling at the place where the grape vines and the pine trees were connected.

The audience who saw this scene suspected that Tiantian was preparing for revenge because she had eaten sour grapes.

At that time, no one would have thought that under this grape vine that was almost entangled with the pine tree, there would be a treasure that had been stored for almost two centuries.

When Xiangfangnan started digging with Song Tiantian, He Jingnian, Xu Anjia and others also ran over.

"Tiantian, Nannan, why are you still digging here?" Xu Anjia asked with some confusion.

He Jingnian looked at them curiously: "Did you find anything?"

"Well, we found the treasure." Song Tiantian blurted out.

Hearing this, Xiang Nan was shocked and looked at Song Tiantian hurriedly.

"Treasure?" He Jingnian's eyes lit up instantly: "Did you find the treasure? How did you find it?"

"Look at this pine tree." Song Tiantian said without hesitation, "Judging from the cracks on its bark and the degree of aging, this tree, like the pine trees next to it, has been growing here for over a hundred years. However, its size and dense branches and leaves are completely incomparable to those of other pine trees. And look here."

As she spoke, Song Tiantian pointed to a raised scar under the tree canopy and asked, "What does this scar look like?"

He Jingnian squinted his eyes and looked carefully in the direction Song Tiantian pointed, but no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find where the tree scar that Song Tiantian was pointing to was.

Wu Ketu saw it, but the tree scar looked like...

[Hey, there really is a tree scar here, and it looks like some kind of pattern?]

[It's a triangle, but due to the growth and aging of the bark, this scar has become a little deformed.]

[What? So Tiantian really saw something, so she started digging here, and it wasn't just because she had sour grapes... cough cough cough...]

[Oh my god, you've already exposed yourself above. However, it's such a subtle spot. If I hadn't used the drone to observe it closely, I wouldn't have noticed that there was such a scar between the tree canopy and branches.]

[Yes, and it looks like a mark made by humans.]

[So, could there really be something under this pine tree?]

"Of course. Didn't you hear Tiantian say that other pine trees of the same age as this one are much thicker and taller? This means there must be something underneath that's affecting its growth, which is why it's so much shorter than its peers."

[So that's how it is. No wonder Tiantian said she wanted to go under this pine tree from the beginning. She must have discovered this!]

[It seems that Tiantian really knows a lot about plants.]

At this time, Wuketu and the others also found the tree scar with Song Tiantian's reminder.

After seeing the shape of the scar, He Jingnian finally realized: "So, Tiantian, do you think someone marked the tree when they planted it a long time ago?"

"Yes." Song Tiantian raised her eyebrows and said, "Besides, do you know anyone in that era who would deliberately carve marks on trees when planting them?"

"The person who hid the treasure!" He Jingnian, Wuketu and others said in unison.

"They must have carved a mark when they planted the tree so they could find the treasure next time!"

"That's right! Tiantian, you are so smart!" Xu Anjia shouted to Song Tiantian excitedly.

Meanwhile, Fang Nan, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly lit up with eyes like stars after hearing Song Tiantian's analysis of the pine tree...
