C217: Reunion


A huge circular plaza appeared in front of Tang Zheng, this plaza was the size of two soccer fields, and the ground was extremely flat. The ground was carved with complex stripes, and the most eye-catching thing was the four huge stone statues surrounding the plaza.


The stone statue was more than ten feet tall and basked in the sunlight. It gave off a mysterious aura. These stone statues were very lifelike, no different from ordinary people.


At first glance, it was as if the stone statue was looking at people. A soul-chilling force reached straight into one's heart, causing people to feel deep respect for it.


Seeing Tang Zheng stare straight at the stone statue, Ah Yuan proudly said: "This is my clan's Patron God, is it spectacular?"


Tang Zheng swallowed his saliva and truthfully said that he had never seen such a tall and magnificent stone statue in his life before. He sincerely said: "Beautiful!"


"The Patron God has been protecting my clansmen for countless years. Even elders don't know when they appeared." Ah Yuan sighed.


"What kind of clan are you?" Tang Zheng discovered that the other's attire was different from his own, as they were all cloth that was rarely seen. Moreover, they both had long hair, just like an ancient person.


Ancient people?


Tang Zheng felt his heart skip a beat as he looked into the distance. The plaza was surrounded by scattered houses while the surrounding area was a forest that covered the sky and covered the earth.


Tang Zheng climbed up the Fairy Peak and discovered that What he could see were only mountains. Even though they were not as high up as Fairy Peak, it occupied an extremely large area, giving off a strong visual impact.


Tang Zheng stood on the flat ground, unable to see what lay beyond the cover of the forest, but he felt that it was an endless forest. In other words, he was currently within the boundless forest that he saw before.


Was this supposed to be a forbidden zone because of the death, filled with miasma and swamps everywhere, unsuitable for human survival? How can a human survive?


Waves of shock arose in his heart. These people were all dressed and acting strangely. Could it be that they were some tribe that lived here?


Tang Zheng was unable to make up his mind as if they were an ancient clan that lived in seclusion here. But now that technology was so advanced, how could they avoid the scouts of satellites?


After all, in such a huge square, with these mysterious stone statues standing in broad daylight, the satellite would definitely detect them tens of thousands of meters away.


After hearing his question, Ah Yuan vigilantly glanced at him and said, "You want to ask me for advice? No way."


He was as fast as lightning, than he lifted the wooden bed and quickly arrived at a house at the edge of the plaza. This house was clearly much better than the one Tang Zheng lived in.


Tang Zheng saw a familiar figure sitting in front of the house, her eyes lifeless, one hand holding onto her chin, staring at the plaza in a daze.


"Mu Hongyan." Tang Zheng was able to recognize her at a glance, she was safe under Tang Zheng's protection.


Mu Hongyan also saw Tang Zheng on the wooden bed and immediately jumped up. She hurriedly walked over and cried out in excitement: "Tang Zheng, are you alright?"


"Not yet." Tang Zheng barely squeeze out a smile that could move his muscles. The piercing pain made his smile even uglier than a cry.


Mu Hongyan patted her chest as she said with lingering fear: "I thought that something bad had happened to you , because these people did not tell me your news."


As she spoke, Tang Zheng was already let down and Mu Hongyan finally saw his appearance clearly. He was actually tied up. At this time, her eyebrows jumped up as she stared at Ah Yuan and said: "What are you doing, why are you tying him up?"


"To prevent him from escaping, of course."


"We are free to leave, what qualifications do you have to stop us?" Mu Hongyan angrily roared like an angry lioness.


"He is my captive. Before he speaks the truth, there is no way I can let him escape."


"Captive? It's against the law for you to put us under house arrest. " Mu Hongyan complained.


"Against the law?" A Yuan was stunned for a moment. Then, he started laughing out loud. "We elders are the law. I am following the order of the elder, so how could I violate the law?"


Tang Zheng knew that what she said to this little brat was nonsense, so he hurriedly stopped Mu Hongyan and said: "Do you still remember what happened to us?"


Mu Hongyan shook her head at a loss: "I only remember the two of us falling off the cliff and waking up here. Thankfully, you used your body to save me and I am safe. We have been here for two days and I have been asking for your news, but they have not told me."


As she spoke, she glared furiously at Ah Yuan, but it was as if he didn't see her at all. He only pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between the two, as if he wanted to find out some secret from the conversation.


"Two days. You mean we've been here for two days?" Tang Zheng was shocked, could it be that he had been unconscious for two days?


Mu Hongyan's expression was dark as she said: "Yes, it has already been two days and our family must be worried to death. We need to hurry back."


Of course, Tang Zheng knew that his family members were anxious and most likely thought that he had fallen off the cliff and died, but the crucial point was that it was not easy to leave this place and he was injured and unable to move.


"Be patient, we will definitely return, I promise you." Tang Zheng firmly said.


Mu Hongyan looked into his eyes and her heart softened. Tang Zheng fell off the cliff to save her and if it wasn't to protect her he wouldn't have been injured to such an extent.


In all these years, no one had ever dared to sacrifice their lives for her. Her heart felt as though it was melting.


Hearing Tang Zheng's promise, she did not doubt him but did not hesitate to believe him. She nodded and said: "I believe you, we will definitely leave this place."


"Without the help of our clansmen, even if you recovered completely, you wouldn't be able to walk out of these Thousand of Mountain Range."


Their expressions darkened.


"Alright, You've seen your friend. Go back." Ah Yuan said.


Mu Hongyan's expression suddenly changed as she firmly grabbed onto the wooden bed and loudly said: "No, he is injured. I need to take care of him so you can't take him away."


These past two days had been torture for Mu Hongyan, she did not know anyone. Moreover, everyone was looking at her with eyes full of vigilance, and now she finally saw Tang Zheng, How could she let him leave her.


Unconsciously, Tang Zheng was able to stabilize her heart, allowing her to have peace of mind. She has already used Tang Zheng as her backer.


"You've already seen each other, and you still want to stay together? No way!" A Yuan frowned and said unhappily. As he spoke, he lifted up the wooden bed.


"No, he's already injured like this. He can't be left without someone to take care of him." Mu Hongyan desperately held onto the wooden bed.


A Yuan angrily glared at the two. How could these two be so troublesome? He was not one to show mercy to the beauty, so he directly raised his hand and Mu Hongyan fell into the air.


Tang Zheng seeing the situation hurriedly stopped him: "Stop, let us stay together otherwise you will not be able to get my answer."


"You threaten me?" A Yuan flew into a rage as his other hand clenched into a fist, as if he could smash Tang Zheng's head at any moment.


But Tang Zheng acted as if he did not see anything and stared straight at him, not backing down: "I am threatening you, so what can you do about it?"


"Do you believe that I would smash your head apart with a single punch?"


"Haha, good. Then you do it. Anyway, I've already become like this, so I don't mind taking another punch." Tang Zheng smiled.


A Yuan was shocked, this person really was not afraid of death, of course he wouldn't dare to kill Tang Zheng, otherwise the elder would peel him alive.


"If you cannot make the decision, you can ask your elders." Tang Zheng said.


"Just you wait, I will definitely not let you succeed." Ah Yuan angrily put down the wooden bed, and Mu Hongyan fell back to the ground. Her legs became weak as she laid on the bed, exhaling a breath of air.


Ah Yuan angrily left to ask for permission from the elders. Tang Zheng and Mu Hongyan finally found a place to be alone and hurriedly said in a low voice: "Have you discovered anything useful these past two days?"


Mu Hongyan took a deep breath and said: "These past two days I have been restricted from moving and I cannot go too far but I have also seen the situation. This is clearly an ancient clan that lives in seclusion within these one hundred thousand mountains. It was hard to imagine that such an ancient tribe actually lived within the forbidden zone of death. "They live on hunting. I can see people coming back with the corpses of beasts every day. The people of this tribe seem to be extremely strong, and there are hundreds of people here."


"Then what can we do to leave this place?"


Mu Hongyan shook her head: "Every exit has a person, moreover the exterior of the house is surrounded by tall fences, there is no way to escape. Just like what that person said before, this is the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range. Other than them, outsiders would have a hard time getting out."


After saying that, her expression turned gloomy. She originally thought that she would die without a doubt, but who would have thought that she would be saved. However, just as she escaped from the gates of hell, she fell into the hands of this mysterious group that were unknown to be enemies or friends.


"Tang Zheng, let me first see if your injuries are serious." Mu Hongyan worriedly asked.


Tang Zheng gave a bitter smile and said: "My injury can still be sustained for a few more days but whether it can be healed in the end, it is hard to say. I don't even know how many bones have been broken."


Mu Hongyan's eyes reddened as she was on the verge of tears. She was originally a strong woman but at this moment she was extremely sensitive and said with shame: "Tang Zheng, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If you didn't save me, you wouldn't have ended up like this."


Tang Zheng squeezed out a thin smile and said: "No need to say such things, we should think of a way to leave this place."


Mu Hongyan wiped the corner of her eyes and said: "First I should think of a way to treat your injuries."


Tang Zheng let out a sigh, he did not even have the most basic medicine, so treating this injury was easier said than done. But if the injury was not healed then they would have no way to leave.


Dong, dong, dong!


A wave of hurried footsteps rang out as Ah Yuan returned with an unfriendly expression. Tang Zheng felt his heart move and said: "Elder, did he agree?"


"I warn you, don't have any bad intentions. Tell the truth, or I won't let you off." as he was speaking, he ripped off the rope on Tang Zheng's body and lifted him up with one hand, then he entered the room and placed him on Mu Hongyan's bed. He then picked up the wooden bed outside of the room and unwillingly left.


Tang Zheng let out a breath of relief, because staying with Mu Hongyan was more convenient for communication and understanding of the situation.


Mu Hongyan was also extremely happy.


Tang Zheng did not have the time to be happy when he felt a wave of strong desire to urinate. He had already been unconscious for two days and now wanted to urinate.
