Chapter 34 The lonely old locust tree!
"What did you hear?" Song Kaijiang asked.

"Cough cough."

Chen Yang was about to speak when he heard Master Song cough, "Xiao Yang, this kind of joke is not funny, there is no sound, hurry up!"

His expression was very serious, as if he was avoiding something.

Song Kaijiang also tactfully shut his mouth and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Keep going.

"What did you just hear?"

Huang Can was quite curious, so he moved closer to Chen Yang and asked in a low voice.

"Maybe it's hallucination."

Chen Yang shook his head. Although he said this, he didn't think so in his heart.

The sound came from deep in the forest to his right. It was very clear and he was sure it was not an illusion.

He touched the eighteen-seed Bodhi bead bracelet in his hand. After the panic just now, he seemed to realize something.

"Young man, can you hear me?"

After walking a few steps, the voice just now rang in Chen Yang's ears again.

The sound was not small, but seeing that the people in front did not react at all, Chen Yang already knew what was going on.

He then took a few slow steps, left the group, and, not knowing where he got the courage from, he followed the direction of the sound and walked alone into the depths of the forest.

I didn’t walk far, maybe fifty meters.

A tall old locust tree appeared in Chen Yang's sight.

"Ding, found the A-level spiritual plant [Old Sophora japonica], unlocked the illustration, and got the reward [Top-quality Sophora japonica wood]*1."

-

Illustration: Old locust tree.

Rating: A-grade spiritual plant.

Introduction: 836 years old, an old locust tree that has shown spirituality, loneliness, and a little depression.

-

The tree is about twenty meters tall and so thick that it is scary. I am afraid it would take five or six adults to hug it.

The lush branches and leaves are like a huge umbrella, blocking out all light.

As Chu Yi approached, Chen Yang felt a chill.

There was a group of birds standing on the treetops. When they sensed Chen Yang approaching, they immediately flew away in fright.

Apart from anything else, the environment in the deep mountains and old forests is really creepy.

"Were you talking just now?"

Standing under the tree, Chen Yang looked up and asked.

"Oh, can you really hear me?"

The leaves swayed slightly, and the old voice was full of excitement.

"I guess so." Chen Yang nodded.

"Woooooooo..."

How many years has it been? How many years has it been?

The big locust tree let out an unpleasant cry.

How long has it been since I was born? Hundreds of years, maybe? Who can understand the feeling of not being able to find anyone to talk to for hundreds of years?
I am lonely.

"What's your name, young man?"

The big locust tree was even more excited than Chen Yang, and its voice was very gentle, as if it was afraid of scaring Chen Yang away.

"My name is Chen Yang, and I'm a villager from Jiapigou Village at the foot of the mountain."

Chen Yang did not hide anything. He looked at the tree in front of him curiously, "What should I call you?"

"call?"

The big locust tree was obviously stunned for a moment, "You can call me Old Locust."

Chen Yang nodded and said, "Old Huai, have you seen anyone else come into the mountain recently?"

After some greetings, he told the old locust tree about Song Daneng's physical characteristics.

The old locust tree sighed, "My consciousness is still unable to leave this forest, so I know nothing about the situation outside the forest. I haven't seen anyone for a long time..."

At this point, the old locust tree was a little silent. He seemed to be recalling how long it had been since he had seen anyone. Chen Yang was a little disappointed. He thought he would get some useful information here.

"How many spiritual creatures like you are there in this forest?" Chen Yang touched the eighteen-seed bracelet on his wrist.

"It should be no less."

The big locust tree's answer was ambiguous. Perhaps he really didn't know. After all, he was alone.

Chen Yang asked for a long time but didn't get any useful information, and he lost interest.

"However, some time ago, a group of wild boars broke into my forest. The leading pig king seemed to have some intelligence. It seemed to have discovered my existence and kept bumping into me. Hey, my old arms and legs were almost broken by it..."

The big locust tree kept complaining.

Chen Yang frowned slightly, "Wild boar?"

"Yes, there is a large group of them. At least 30 or 40 of them are here. They come every day recently. Look at my body. There are traces of them hitting me..."

Chen Yang walked around the big locust tree and found that there were large traces of impact and wear on the trunk close to the ground.

It's because the tree is big. If it were smaller, it would have fallen down long ago.

"Xiao Chen, you are the only person who can hear me talk all these years. After meeting you, I no longer feel lonely. Can you do me a favor..."

At this time, the old locust tree spoke, and the first thing he did was to ask Chen Yang for help.

"Mr. Huai, how can I help you?"

A frown flashed across Chen Yang's brows. If you let me stay with you, that would not be very friendly.

The old locust tree said, "I want to move to another place. Can you take me away from here?"

"What?"

This request is too much to ask.

Chen Yang looked up. Such a big tree must weigh at least thousands or tens of thousands of pounds. You ask me to take you away. Do you think I am a god?

"It seems to be a bit difficult..."

Before Chen Yang could say anything more, the old locust tree had already taken back its words in disappointment.

If Chen Yang really wanted to take him down the mountain, that would be simply making things difficult for him and it would be totally unrealistic.

This is not just difficult, it is extremely difficult.

"never mind."

The locust tree gave a bitter smile and said, "Just help me drive away those wild boars, okay? Although it's lonely to be alone, I don't want to die at the hands of a group of black-haired beasts."

"Killing wild boars?"

This is something he can consider. After all, he is still tasked with hunting wild boars.

"When will they come?" Chen Yang asked.

If it takes too long, he certainly doesn't want to wait, after all, he has important things to do.

"It won't be too long. It's basically this time every day." said the old locust tree.

"Ahhhhh."

At this moment, a low shout suddenly came from behind Chen Yang.

Turning back suddenly, Chen Yang saw several figures rushing towards him.

The one rushing in the front was Huang Can, who kicked Chen Yang directly on the waist.

Chen Yang was totally unprepared and was kicked to the ground.

The next second, Huang Can directly rode on Chen Yang and pressed him down.

"Hurry up, Second Master, I caught him." Huang Can shouted excitedly, "Fuck, he's so strong, I can't hold him down, come and help me."

Mr. Song and others quickly surrounded them.

Song Kaijiang and Song Kaiyun, one pressing on his hands and the other on his feet, together with Huang Can, the three of them could hardly hold Chen Yang down.

At this time, Chen Yang was completely confused. What the hell were they doing?
Failure to commit murder for money?

"Xiaoyang, Xiaoyang, wake up quickly."

Song Kaishan started by pinching Chen Yang's philtrum.

Mr. Song took out a pair of chopsticks from his backpack and directly clamped Chen Yang's middle finger on his right hand.

"Whoever you are, get off him."
