Chapter 21 Bounty Order(1/2)

Dan Mo turned his head and looked at the marks carefully.

I can't figure out the number it represents for a while.

But then I thought, since this tree has its number, there must be other trees nearby that have its number.

To be on the safe side, Dan Mo left step by step.

-

Behind the two trees, a new mark was found, and likewise, there are three columns.

There is only one row on the left column, engraved with a stroke from the upper right to the lower left. The same as the previous mark.

There are two lines in the second column, the previous line is engraved with a horizontal line and the next line is engraved with a vertical line. The same as the previous mark.

The column on the far right is different from the previous mark, with only two lines. The upper line is a vertical line, and the lower line is a stroke from the upper right to the lower left.

-

Dan Mo thought about it carefully. The only difference between the marks of these two trees is that there is a difference in the column on the far right.

The later marks are one less horizontal than the first one.

"Since it is two trees adjacent to each other, the numbers should be only one difference. Their differences are just one horizontal, so one horizontal should mean one."

Dan Mo was delighted and was very sure that his guess must be correct.

However, guessing this is far from enough. What does a vertical sign mean? What does a single stroke mean?

-

Dan Mo moved forward and rushed back to the first tree with the mark. He had just run a few steps and his eyelids became heavy.

He was shocked and said to himself, "Is I going to fall asleep?" Thinking of the two-tailed beast in the dream, his whole body trembled.

Stop quickly, return to the first tree step by step, and then continue walking forward.

I walked past two trees, stopped under the third tree and looked at it, without any marks.

-

After walking around, there was no mark on the bark of the tree.

Dan Mo looked around and walked to the right side of the original direction of his advance. Finally, he found the third marked tree after passing by a tree.

There are also three columns, from left to right, the first column and the second column are the same as the first two children.

The third column is different from the first two.

There are three lines, the top line and the middle line are a vertical line, and the bottom line is a stroke.

-

After reading it, Dan Mo leaned against the tree and thought carefully.

At present, the three trees with the marks that appear first are in the middle. The second tree that appears is the farthest away from it at this time. The numbers indicated by the marks on these two trees are one different, which is definitely confirmed.

-

So, according to speculation, the number represented by the tree next to me should be one larger than the number of the middle one.

Thinking of this, Dan Mo turned around, touched the rightmost mark with his right hand, and said in his mind, "The tree in the middle is horizontal, vertical, and horizontal from top to bottom. This tree is vertical, vertical, and horizontal. The difference between them is only in the upper row. Since the difference between horizontal and vertical, the former is one smaller than the latter, so vertical is one larger than horizontal. Horizontal means one, then vertical means two."

Dan Mo slapped his head and muttered, I should have guessed it long ago. But how much does that stroke mean?

-

-

Taking the steps, Dan Mo began to look for one such marked tree after another.

Finally, he guessed that one stroke in the mark should mean five.

This should have been something to be happy about. But the result was not like this. Dan Mo was in a bad mood. Because new problems arose,

Most of these trees are closer together, while some are separated by more than ten trees, and some are even dozens of trees.

This distance made Dan Mo lose his direction many times and wasted a lot of time.

-

Originally, the purpose of finding these trees was to find a way out.

Now it seems that it is not that simple. Are these trees really the way out?

Is it so far apart between the two trees, is it a way or is it a loss?

-

When I looked up, I saw that the sky was dark between the dense leaves and the gaps.

In this stone tomb forest, you can't sleep, you can persist in one day, and two days?

If you are lost here, you can find it or not, it is still a problem.

-

Dan Mo patted his chest and cheered himself up. After finding some food, he began to open his eyes and regulate his breathing.

After a few hours, Dan Mo felt that he could not hold on anymore and began to feel sleepy. After adjusting his breathing, he would fall asleep.

At this time, it was day again.

Fortunately, after this breathing adjustment, I could feel that my injuries recovered.

If this continues, it will no longer take ten days or half a month.

If it goes well, seven days will be enough.

"This may be the only good news for this weird stone tomb forest."

Dan Mo sighed at the magic of this forest, stood up and continued to look for those marked trees.

-

At dusk, Dan Mo stood under a tree, stunned.

Because there was a skeleton in front of him, and a knife was held in his right hand.

"Is this person the one who carved marks on the tree? He used the knife in his hand?" Dan Mo guessed.

The skeleton's left hand was holding a bronze medal, with several words on it.

Dan Mo bent down and looked vigilantly.

Then he bowed to him and whispered, "Senior, I offended you."

-

After saying that, he took down the knife on the skeleton's right hand. Then he held the bronze medal in the skeleton's left hand and gently dragged it out.

Unlike that knife, the bronze medal is still held on the left hand of the skeleton.

Dan Mo pulled out with force, and the skeleton seemed to have come alive. Dan Mo felt that it also grabbed the bronze medal with force.

"Senior, are you dead or alive?" Dan Mo let go, took two steps back, and looked at the skeleton in front of him with vigilance.

The skeleton didn't move.

-

Dan Mo was about to continue to get the bronze medal, but unexpectedly the bronze medal fell to the ground by itself.

Dan Mo jumped out one meter back and watched with great force.

After dozens of breaths, the skeleton was indeed a dead object and then slowly approached.

I picked up the bronze medal and saw that there were indeed three words engraved on it.

Reward order.

-

"Borrow order? What is the reward?" Dan Mo murmured, looking at the bronze medal repeatedly, and from time to time at the skeleton.

Suddenly, there was a foreign object behind the skeleton.

Dan Mo was shocked, put away the bronze medal and spared it from the skeleton.

Then it became apparent that the foreign object was nothing else, but a burden.

Dan Mo bent down and picked it up gently and looked carefully.

There is a word "Ji" embroidered on the bag.

-

"It seems that this person should be surnamed Ji. I guess he has died here for many years. After so long, the burden is still so intact. I'm afraid this person is not an ordinary person."

"What's there?" Dan Mo became curious and carefully opened the bag.

Just as the bag opened, a stream of blue smoke came out.

Dan Mo only felt his eyelids sink, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep before he could resist.
