Chapter 12: Doubts

As soon as Shang Min and the others began to study carefully, they immediately forgot about Zhong Yuan and Shui Yue'er. Zhong Yuan placed Xiao Yue'er on the ground, picked up the box containing the materials, and brought her to the tree where the hammock was hanging. He reached out and held Shui Yue'er with one hand, and with a gentle jump, they landed on the hammock. Fortunately, Zhong Yuan's hammock was wide enough for the two of them to sit on it without any problem.

Zhong Yuan took out a oracle bone script from the box and casually threw the box back to the ground. He looked at Shui Yue'er, who was excited beside him. Zhong Yuan took a bag of snacks from the Buddha bead and handed it over. Xiao Yue'er was excited to see the snacks that Zhong Yuan had magically created in his hand. However, she only became excited after seeing Zhong Yuan's tricks. When she saw Zhong Yuan start flipping through the books in his hand, Shui Yue'er didn't bother and crawled on the hammock to see the few people who were exploring around not far away. Zhong Yuan's tent was also set up there.

Shang Min trusts Zhong Yuan very much. Since Zhong Yuan said she is here, she must be here. So she is now focused on searching for any clues without any impatience, and has not thought of going over to ask if Zhong Yuan knows the clues. The process of searching is the most important for knowledge and experience.

Shang Min is patient, and even her two students who don't wear watches are patient. At first, the two of them searched with great interest for a long time, but after a few minutes, they became impatient. In their eyes, this is just a normal ancient tree. However, since the teacher is still searching, the two of them dare not stop and follow Shang Min with an unhappy expression, thinking that this time they can broaden their horizons. They knew about the discovery of the treasure last time, but of course, the specific process was not something they could know.

As for the two bodyguards, they were good at protecting people, but the meticulous job of finding agencies was not their strong suit. So they casually searched and watched without getting involved. Zhong Yuan jumped into the big tree with Xiao Yue'er, and they both saw it. They looked at each other and showed admiration. Strong people can be respected no matter where they are, and undoubtedly Zhong Yuan is such a strong person in their eyes.

Where are Xiaoyue'er and the others? "After searching for half a day without finding any clues, Shang Min wanted to confirm with Zhong Yuan if it was really here, but found that it seemed like there was no trace of the two of them.

Zhong Yuan, are you sure it's here? "Following the bodyguard's hand, Shang Min saw the two Zhong Yuan lying on the high hammock, and her two students were stunned as they looked at the two people on the tree.

That's right, Auntie Shui. It's that big tree. Do you need my help? "In just a moment, a thick book had already been flipped through halfway. This was still a situation where Zhong Yuan was reading and understanding at the same time. Otherwise, the book would have been read long ago. Upon hearing Shang Min's question, Zhong Yuan quickly replied.

Ah, this tree? No need, I'll take another look. "Shang Min had been searching for clues around the big tree just now. Zhong Yuan said that the big tree had regained its energy. Curious by nature, Shang Min didn't believe that she couldn't find any clues, and her two students had to gather their energy to study the big tree.

In fact, Zhongyuan also admires these two girls quite a bit. Seeing that they are about the same age as Situ Miao and the others, and their appearance is not bad, Shang Min even said that these two are from her own family, so their family background is also good. It's really nice to be able to go to such a place to endure hardship. Of course, if they have the same curious attitude as Shui Xin and the others, it's another story.

After staying in the tree for a while, Shuiyue'er's nature was that of a child. She had already become impatient. After thinking for a moment, Zhong Yuan took out a jade token from the Buddha bead and placed it in Xiaoyue'er's hand. He whispered to Xiaoyue'er about the use of this jade talisman. As Zhong Yuan explained, Shuiyue'er's eyes became brighter as she looked at the big tree. After Zhong Yuan finished speaking, Shuiyue'er wanted to jump over and try it out immediately.

However, Brother Zhongyuan said that we have to wait until Mom and her friends get tired of studying, otherwise God knows if Mom will be angry. Xiaoyue'er knows that when Mom starts studying things, no one cares. She doesn't want her little butt to be beaten by Mom.

Alright, you little one, I'll take you down and you can quietly try it yourself. Don't let your mother find out. "Zhong Yuan saw Xiaoyue'er's distress and quickly suggested sending her down, otherwise the little one wouldn't even be able to read while shaking herself.

Brother Zhongyuan is really good. "Upon hearing Zhongyuan's words, Shuiyue was overjoyed and quickly gave him a kiss on the face. Before Zhongyuan could react, she jumped off the hammock, leaving him stunned. This guy is too bold and needs to be carefully managed when it's time, otherwise something must happen. Zhongyuan shook his head and continued reading.

Although the two brothers, Sang Yuan and Shang Min, had been watching the three of them search for the so-called mechanism, the residual light of their eyes occasionally swept over the two people on the tree. As for the miraculous performance of Zhong Yuan and the others today, both of them were still puzzled. Looking at Xiao Yue'er gently falling from the tree to the ground again, it seemed like a cat was scratching in their hearts, and they were extremely curious.

Xiaoyue put the jade talisman in her pocket and didn't rush to test what Zhong had said. Instead, she ran to Shangmin and pretended to look at it. However, she didn't dare to knock on the tree like Shangmin did. Just now, Brother Zhongyuan said that this tree is fake, and as long as you bring that jade talisman, you won't be able to touch it. Xiaoyue doesn't want anyone to discover anything unusual.

Shang Min just glanced at Xiao Yue'er beside her and continued to study, but now there was nothing that could attract her to this tree.

Shuiyue noticed that her mother hadn't paid attention to her, so she walked gently towards the back of the tree. The tree's trunk was just enough to block the gaze of a few people. Of course, the two bodyguards standing on the side could still see the situation here, but would Shuiyue care about the two of them? In Shuiyue's opinion, as long as she doesn't get caught by her mother, it's enough. Anyway, everyone's purpose of coming here is to stay here. If it weren't for the fear of disturbing her mother's research interest, Xiaoyue would have wanted to jump over and give it a try.

After Shuiyue walked up to the tree and made sure her mother couldn't see her, she slowly reached out a hand and cautiously reached for the tree pole. It wasn't that Xiaoyue didn't trust Zhongyuan, but what if Zhongyuan's brother made a mistake? It must be very painful to hit such a big tree, "Shuiyue said to herself in her heart.

The two bodyguards also saw Xiao Yue'er turn behind the tree, but now they were full of strange questions and didn't care about them. Sang Ku looked at Xiao Yue'er's location again, but he couldn't turn his eyes again. Not only did Sang Ku's eyes stare like cows' eyes, but also his breathing became heavier. Sang Ku's strange behavior attracted Sang Yuan's attention. Looking along Sang Ku's eyes, Sang Yuan was stunned, and his expression became the same as Sang Ku's.

It's really two brothers, "Zhong Yuan said in his heart. When Xiao Yue'er fell to the ground, Zhong Yuan's psychic power kept watching her move, and the expressions of these two brothers were also in his psychic power. Zhong Yuan already had the ability to multitask, so even observing a few people couldn't delay his reading time.

What did the Sangku brothers see? A few meters away, Xiaoyue'er was gesturing with her small hand towards the big tree. It wasn't much just that, but the key was that Xiaoyue'er's hand wasn't gesturing outside, but had already reached into the big tree. From time to time, she would pull back her hand that had already risen into the big tree. She was playing happily alone, no wonder the two of them were like ghosts. At the beginning, the two of them were bored and had seen this big tree. Sangku even helped find clues next to the big tree, and he was sure that it was a real big tree. No wonder he couldn't accept Xiaoyue'er's performance at first.

The performance of the two brothers, Sang Yuan, was also seen by Xiao Yue'er, who was not happy playing. Xiao Yue'er quickly put on a vicious expression and glared at the two of them vigorously, as if saying that she dared to say that she had nothing to do with you guys. However, his cute appearance combined with his vicious expression did not show any signs of aggression at all. Zhong Yuan, who was on the tree, still thought it was very cute. If it weren't for this cute expression, the two brothers could only pretend to be scared and nod. The questions filled their stomachs, making both of them feel uncomfortable.
