Although Xiao Tangqiu had long realized that they could not leave Easter Island easily, he still couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine when he heard the middle-aged man say "we can never leave" in that mysterious tone.
Bai Yushan said coldly: "Take us to find the sacred tree."
The middle-aged man immediately protested fiercely: "No! You must not go out after dark!"
Bai Yushan said impatiently: "Hurry up!"
The middle-aged man's face was suddenly filled with fear, and then his expression twitched. Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously took a step back. The next moment, the middle-aged man fell down with his eyes rolled back.
Xiao Tangqiu hurried over to take a look, then said helplessly: "He was frightened and fainted..." It was obvious that this guy was not frightened by them, but was frightened to death by the scene he imagined.
"Useless trash!" Bai Yushan kicked the middle-aged man angrily.
Tang Mianmian leaned over to the window and looked: "After those people entered the house, no one came out. Now there is no one outside."
Xiao Tangqiu frowned: "Those newcomers..."
Although they have more important things to do than training new people, those are still a few lives, and they were living people not long ago.
"No matter what, I've done my best to inform them."
Xiao Tangqiu glanced at the others and spoke.
Xue Junli nodded: "They should still be at the beach. We can go and verify whether what that guy just said is true."
Bai Yushan frowned: "We should go find the sacred tree first! The sacred tree is likely the key!"
"That's right. We must go find the sacred tree, but I think we can search this village first..." Xiao Tangqiu was interrupted by Bai Yushan before he could finish his words.
"Let's find the sacred tree first! This village is not important at all!"
Xiao Tangqiu frowned: "But..."
Bai Yushan said excitedly, "Don't waste time! Go find the sacred tree!"
Xiao Tangqiu frowned. Bai Yushan's character was becoming more and more paranoid and extreme. Once she had her own ideas, she would never listen to anyone else's opinions, and even ten cows could not change her mind.
Xue Junli said calmly, "The sacred tree should be the key, but we should first understand the specific conditions of this village and this island. Bai Yushan, you are no longer a novice. Don't make such a simple mistake."
"I just don't want to waste time!" Bai Yushan sneered, "Why don't we split up? I'll go find the sacred tree, and you guys can take your time!"
Without waiting for Xue Junli to answer, she turned around and kicked the door out.
"This crazy woman..."
Duan Hongzhen sneered.
Xue Junli frowned and said, "Forget it, let her go. Let's go to the gravel beach first."
After making up their minds, everyone set off towards the gravel beach they came from.
On the way, Xiao Tangqiu couldn't help but look at the other houses. He just noticed that those who were dressed more modernly entered the more exquisite bamboo houses, while those who were dressed more primitively entered the rough and primitive stone houses made of haphazardly piled stones...
What do these two very different groups of people represent? Are they both islanders?
No, that middle-aged man they were questioning had clearly arrived from outside the island. How did he get here? Were those other people dressed in modern clothes his kind? Were those dressed in primitive styles the original islanders? How could these two groups get along so harmoniously?
