Chapter 17 Treasure Map

There are three rooms in Gao Liehu's house: the main house, the bedroom and the kitchen.

Zhang Yuan has worked for Hunter Gao for more than three years, and the places he is most familiar with are the main house and the kitchen.

And Gao Hunter never let him enter his bedroom alone.

Zhang Yuan has always suspected that the other party was hiding some secret, but had never revealed any clues.

Now he can do whatever he wants!
However, Zhang Yuan searched the room carefully, knocked on the walls and the floor with a hatchet, rummaged through the drawers and even lifted up the bed.

Only a wooden box containing silver and money was found.

A ten-liang silver note, three or four liang of silver, and a few hundred copper coins were all he gained!
Zhang Yuan was a little depressed, so he searched Gao Liehu's body again.

There's nothing there.

never mind!

In disappointment, Zhang Yuan put the other party's body back together and offered it as a sacrifice.

Under the influence of the power of the God's Nest, the corpse broken into three parts quickly decayed.

"what?"

Zhang Yuan suddenly realized something was wrong.

I saw that a large area of ​​skin on Gao Liehu's chest was not affected at all!

When the sacrifice was over, a half-foot square piece of human skin was pressed on top of the black corpse ashes, which was particularly eye-catching.

Zhang Yuan leaned over and grabbed it in his hand.

The texture of this piece of human skin is tough, and there is nothing unusual to be seen from the front.

But when I turned it over, there was a map engraved on the back!
Treasure Map?
Zhang Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

This map tattooed on human skin is drawn in great detail and also has text annotations.

The description was exactly Qianfeng Mountain!

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He remembered that Hunter Gao came to Chenjia Village and settled down five years ago.

At that time, Zhang Yuan had just begun to awaken his memories of his past life.

Gao the hunter was also an outsider. He had no relatives in the village and lived alone, very lonely.

Now think about it, this man came from the military and retired due to disability, but he did not return to his hometown to spend the rest of his life.

Obviously, they came here for the treasure in Qianfeng Mountain!

The problem is that there is something strange deep in the mountains, and Hunter Gao has a broken leg, so he can only sigh at the mountain with the treasure map in his hand.

It is estimated that he has almost spent all his savings in the past few years, so he accepted Mr. Chen's invitation.

Serve as a teacher for the Chen family’s children.

Then he wanted to use Zhang Yuan as a gift to please his new apprentice.

The result is what we have now.

Time, fate?
All your schemes are just to help others!
Wang Wang!

The barking of a big tiger outside brought Zhang Yuan back to his senses.

He quickly put the treasure map in his arms, picked up the hatchet and went out to check.

The night is dark and the wind and rain are still blowing.

Zhang Yuan calmed down the restless Da Hu, then brought a large pile of dry firewood from the kitchen and threw it into the bedroom.

Then he took the oil can and poured it all over the room.

Finally light a fire!

There were too many traces of fighting in Gao Liehu's room, and blood was splattered everywhere.

So for safety reasons, it is best to burn it cleanly.

The fire spread and engulfed the entire bedroom.

Zhang Yuan patted the big yellow dog's head and said, "Da Hu, you are free."

He actually liked this guard dog very much. After all, he raised it himself and he had a deep affection for it.

But it is obviously not appropriate to bring Dahu home at the moment.

After saying that, Zhang Yuan turned around and left, quickly sneaking into the wind and rain. Da Hu followed him out of the yard, then stopped and looked at the house behind him that was on fire.

The guard dog wagged its tail and let out a low whimper from its throat.

Zhang Yuan walked quickly in the heavy rain and returned to his room without disturbing anyone.

He changed out of his soaked clothes.

He took out the money box from under the bed and put all the banknotes and silver coins he had found tonight into it.

Originally, Zhang Yuan was planning to store the treasure map in it as well.

But on second thought, I feel that it is not appropriate.

The origin of this thing is unknown. If it is accidentally discovered by someone, it will definitely bring about a fatal disaster!
He thought of the method used by Hunter Gao, so he took a rag and wiped the human skin treasure map clean.

Try to hold it against your chest.

What Zhang Yuan never expected was that without any glue, the treasure map actually stuck tightly to his chest without any feeling of strangeness.

It was as if it was a part of Zhang Yuan's body.

What’s even more amazing is that after a moment, the surface of the human skin treasure map began to change color and blend into the surrounding skin.

There is not even a single flaw to be found!
Zhang Yuan was surprised and scratched it hard to tear it off.

After re-pasting it back it returned to normal.

This is definitely a treasure!
Zhang Yuan had never seen or even heard of such a magical thing before.

If he hadn't sacrificed Gao Hunter's body, he would never have obtained this strange treasure map of human skin.

This world is obviously more extraordinary than Zhang Yuan had imagined!

However, despite having obtained the treasure map, Zhang Yuan, like Gao the Hunter, did not dare to go deep into Qianfeng Mountain to search for treasure.

He is now just a lowest-level warrior who has just started to gain strength. How can he be capable of dealing with the monsters lurking in the mountains?

It's pure luck that I'm fine now that I encounter the Crow Ghost.

Zhang Yuan doesn't dare to gamble his luck again!

So this treasure map can only be hidden on my body for the time being.

It was already very late at night, and the wind and rain outside were gradually subsiding.

But Zhang Yuan didn't feel sleepy at all.

He opened the God's Nest panel.

It turned out that the body of Gao Hunter that he had sacrificed previously only earned him 1.5 points of source essence!
It's much lower than that of Guardian Sun.

Gao Liehu is definitely stronger than Sun Huyuan.

So is this because the former is disabled, or because he was chopped into three pieces?

Zhang Yuan is currently unknown and the answer will be found in the future.

After a brief thought, he gave all his essence to the second host - the jade mantis!
Currently, the evolution degree of the first host, the black giant ant, is stuck at 18%, and all the source material previously invested has been exhausted.

But the four-fold strength increase brought by the level 2 black giant ant is more than enough for Zhang Yuan, who has just become a warrior.

In fact, this is also his limit.

Therefore, it makes more sense to upgrade the Jade Mantis.

What made Zhang Yuan regretful was that he did not find the secrets of boxing or swordsmanship from Gao Liehu.

Gao Liehu mastered powerful martial arts, but he never taught Zhang Yuan even a single move!
The next day, Zhang Yuan was awakened from his sleep by the sound of a gong coming from outside.

When the gong sounds, disaster is coming.

There had been a knock on the door in the village before, and the occurrence of strange incidents made the villagers panic for a time.

Unexpectedly, something happened again just a few days later!

Zhang Yuan knew it well, so he stood up and dressed calmly.

Then he went out with other villagers and rushed to Gao Liehu's house on the edge of Chenjia Village.

Only a pile of charred ruins remained of Hunter Gao's house, and quite a few people had gathered around it.

Among them were several children of Mr. Chen's family, as well as the chief lawyer and servants.

Their faces all look ugly!
