Chapter 1762: Innate Things and Chaos Spiritual Things

“Are we back to the mainland?”

Soaking in cold water at night was a bit chilling. When Gongsun Hong woke up from his trance, he coughed repeatedly and choked on the water.

He felt like he was lying on the sea, tossing up and down with the waves.

For Gongsun Hong, who is an excellent swimmer, choking on water is a very rare thing. This only proves that his health is not good.

Gongsun Hong clearly remembered that his body became much stronger after recuperation, and he also obtained a large amount of spiritual spring water from a secret place in the sea. As for the memory after that, he was a little unclear.

After mumbling something and asking, Gongsun Hong felt a hand reaching out from the darkness and then scooping him up.

It was not until Gongsun Hong saw clearly that he was sitting on a tree branch that he quickly came to his senses.

"What's going on? Are we flooded?"

“It’s flooded!”

Gongsun Hong asked, and Zhang Xuezhou felt a little lonely.

The secret place was dozens of miles in radius, and the water in the gourd covered an area of ​​more than ten miles in radius, and the flooded area turned into a lake.

All kinds of tree monsters were soaked in this lake.

To these tree monsters, this flood was nothing short of a disaster.

After Zhang Xuezhou was trapped underground by the tree roots for a while, the roots that were entwined around the cave entrance disappeared, and large tracts of trees lay in the flood.

Zhang Xuezhou knew that tree monsters were afraid of fire, but he never thought that tree monsters were also afraid of water.

When the scene gets big enough, the mode of large quantity makes the mutual promotion and mutual restraint no longer so important. Many trees are knocked over by the waves and never stand up again.

The tree monsters were having a hard time, and Zhang Xuezhou felt miserable as well.

The water hyacinth that Zheng Wukong had mortgaged to him was gone, and the spiritual spring water had also been washed away by the waves, so it was unclear whether it could still be collected.

Of course, even if he could collect it, Zhang Xuezhou no longer had the magic weapon to hold water.

This made him a little depressed.

After retrieving Gongsun Hong from a crooked tree on the hillside, Zhang Xuezhou stood up again and looked for where Li Shaojun's body had floated to.

"Why did the flood suddenly rise?" Gongsun Hong said, "I remember clearly that... something had hit me."

The secret place was still familiar, but Gongsun Hong felt like there was something stuck in his throat. He reached out and grabbed it, pulling out a rotten vine from his throat.

The pain of his internal organs being pulled surged into his heart, and Gongsun Hong felt that everything was too bad.

In the past, he often lamented that Dong Zhongshu had forced himself into the realm of egoism, which led to many physical illnesses. Now that the problem had fallen on him, Gongsun Hong couldn't help but look up at the sky, feeling that the heaven would never easily forgive anyone.

Following Dong Zhongshu into the realm of egoism, Gongsun Hong also made the same mistake.

"Where is the spiritual spring?" Gongsun Hong asked anxiously after thinking for a while.

"If this water can be directed to other places, we can look for the spiritual spring then." Zhang Xuezhou said, "I will look for Li Shaojun first!"

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't say that the thing in Gongsun Hong's mouth was brought by the gourd. He looked into the distance with a guilty conscience.

He was not worried that Li Shaojun was dead. Zhang Xuezhou was a little worried that Li Shaojun's body was stuck in the cave and couldn't get out, and even if he was resurrected, he would continue to drown.

But Zhang Xuezhou didn't dare to go back to check the situation for a while.

"Mr. Gongsun, what I want to say is, if we encounter a tree monster and soak it in water, how long will it take for the tree monster to die?" Zhang Xuezhou thought for a while and asked.

"The tree demon is soaking in water?"

Gongsun Hong shook his head, feeling that Zhang Xuezhou had asked a question that was really troublesome for him.

How could he know how long the tree demon could hold its breath?

"It seems that you are not sure, so let's wait. If it doesn't work, we can wait for ten days or eight days!"

Compared with the risks, Zhang Xuezhou feels that he would rather wait.

"Did we encounter a tree demon at night?" Gongsun Hong asked.

"That should be it," Zhang Xuezhou nodded. "At that time, there were tree monsters all over the mountains, and they almost killed us all!"

"Then this water... the water in the gourd?"

Gongsun Hong thought for a few seconds before reacting.

He looked at the water whose edge seemed invisible and couldn't help but gasp.

He knew that there was a lot of water hidden in Zhang Xuezhou's gourd, but he didn't expect it to be this much.

"Your gourd is very likely the innate object as rumored," Gongsun Hong whispered.

"The gourd is not mine. It was pawned to me by Zheng Wukong," Zhang Xuezhou corrected again, "I am not familiar with gourds. I only know that using a gourd to drink water will keep you full and collect water. Now the gourd has been broken by the tree demon. I am afraid I can't afford to pay for it!" "This... this... oh!"

Gongsun Hong covered his mouth and coughed, not knowing how to comfort Zhang Xuezhou for a moment.

In short, no one found their treasure, and there were many accidents.

Li Shaojun lost a large amount of Soul-Guiding Powder and Soul-Snatching Powder, Gongsun Hong's eighteen green bamboo swords were lost, and Zhang Xuezhou's character-fixing copybook and gourd were also lost.

After much difficulty in finding a spiritual spring, it was destroyed before our eyes.

Gongsun Hong just felt extremely depressed.

He has experienced many ups and downs in his life, but not many times with such great ups and downs.

"Even if you give me four or five days to drink the spring water, that would be great!"

He coughed and spat out a mouthful of black stuff, regretting that there was too little time.

He didn't think about selling the spiritual spring, nor did he want to sell it. Gongsun Hong just wanted to take care of his health.

But in just one day, his chance to recover was gone.

Today, this body of water is like a vast ocean. Even if we find the old place again, the spring water will hardly be in its original state. It is very likely that it has been diluted to the point where the effect is unspeakable.

"This water has been soaked by tree monsters all over the mountains. There may be some hidden dangers!"

When Gongsun Hong wanted to take some water to drink and see what was going on, he heard Zhang Xuezhou's reminder, which made him quickly retract his hand holding the water.

"I feel like there's grass growing in my stomach. It must be the influence of the tree demon," Gongsun Hong said dejectedly.

Gongsun Hong was still feeling lucky that he had the chance to live a long life the day before, but his current situation made him very depressed.

He muttered something and when he stretched out his hand and tapped again, he felt that the area of ​​water sensed by his palm was more than ten miles in radius, and the water was about fifty feet deep. If it was in some low places, the water would be even deeper.

Such a vast body of water can be called a big lake. It is difficult to direct the water flow to other areas, and it is beyond human power to solve the problem.

"Just stay alive!"

Zhang Xuezhou consoled him.

Then the two of them fell silent.

It was not until the sky grew brighter that Zhang Xuezhou looked at the calm water surface and then jumped up.

Gongsun Hong was also walking on the water, following the direction in which Zhang Xuezhou was flying.

"Brother, we have a boat back to the mainland!"

Zhang Xuezhou flew for only a few miles when he saw Li Shaojun waving at him from a prominent rock in the distance.

Next to Li Shaojun, a huge gourd was floating in the water, and there was a big hole in the bottom of the gourd, revealing the empty part inside the gourd.

If you can eliminate the risks and don't mind the gourd shape, this is indeed a good boat.

The gourd was pierced, but it does not mean that the gourd is not strong.

On the contrary, this gourd is stronger than ironwood, yet thinner and lighter.

If one has the relevant treasure-making ability, it can even be made into a magic ship, which can be regarded as a secondary use of the treasure.

"I thought you were drowned so I could covet this broken gourd!"

Seeing Zhang Xuezhou landing on the top of the mountain, Li Shaojun casually narrated his little thoughts.

"Where are the vines? Where are the roots?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.

"Do you think I'm someone who dares to talk about that?" Li Shaojun said angrily.

"You are very capable, go down and take a look at the situation!"

"I'm not good enough to watch..."

"You have to be slower. If the treasure doesn't reach us, we won't be able to get it even if we have it!"

Zhang Xuezhou pointed at Gongsun Hong who was walking on the water in the distance, which made Li Shaojun grit his teeth.

"We may have encountered the legendary Chaos Spirit. I want half of the harvest!"

"no problem!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded and quickly agreed to the assignment.

This caused Li Shaojun to fall into the water.

He is not a good swimmer, but Zhang Xuezhou obviously does not count on his ability to swim. Instead, he wants him to test the risks.

As long as there is no risk in the water, Zhang Xuezhou, who is also good at swimming, will go to salvage and pull out the culprit of the disaster.
