~5 min read 860 words

"Refreshing, truly refreshing!"

Not far away was a campfire with roasted meat on it.

Judging by the look of the roasted meat, Chen Hao determined it was likely an animal like a deer.

"Who's there!"

Someone had noticed Chen Hao.

He looked toward Chen Hao with a vigilant expression.

Seeing this, Chen Hao simply walked out openly.

"Don't misunderstand, I have no ill intentions."

"I'm just a passerby."

The leading man smiled slightly when he saw Chen Hao.

"I remember you, you're that young man who was haggling with Dr. Long."

"Mm."

Hearing this, Chen Hao nodded.

"Sit down!"

The man directly invited Chen Hao to sit.

Chen Hao didn't stand on ceremony and found an empty spot to sit down.

"Here you go."

The man used a knife to slice off a large piece of meat from the roasted venison and tossed it directly to Chen Hao.

"Thanks!"

Chen Hao caught it and began to eat.

Seeing this, the man's subordinates looked at their boss with surprised eyes.

They couldn't understand why their boss would be so good to this young man.

However, they knew one truth: their boss must have his reasons for doing so.

"Little brother, want some wine?"

Hearing this, Chen Hao shook his head.

Seeing this, the man didn't force him.

After Chen Hao sat down, the group began to chat.

Through their conversation, Chen Hao learned that this guy with the dragon tattoo on his arm was named Zhou Shan.

Their purpose for coming here was to find a type of detoxifying fruit.

As for Chen Hao, he didn't tell these people his true purpose.

He only told them he was here for an adventure.

That night, Chen Hao slept directly in Zhou Shan's camp.

By the campfire, a few of Zhou Shan's underlings were whispering.

"Why do you think the boss is being so nice to that kid?"

"Don't know, could that kid be a relative of the boss?"

"A relative? Isn't our boss an orphan? Where would he have relatives?"

"Who knows? What if our boss wants to be related to him?"

"Are you saying the boss wants to be a man with a warm heart?"

"That's what you said, it has nothing to do with me."

"No wonder when we went to explore the Immortal Castle, the boss didn't want to go with us; turns out he likes this type."

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly felt a chill down their spines.

"What are you guys whispering about over there?"

"Nothing, nothing!"

The two guys talking brushed it off.

"Hmph, don't think I don't know you're secretly badmouthing me behind my back."

"Let me tell you this, keep your eyes peeled."

"This little brother named Chen Hao is not as simple as you think."

As soon as these words were spoken, both were stunned.

Chen Hao is not simple?

It's not like they hadn't probed Chen Hao; the aura he displayed was indeed that of an ordinary person!

Zhou Shan said, "I've seen countless people, and this kid is one of the few existences that makes me feel wary."

Zhou Shan was particularly serious when he said this.

He was born an orphan and had a special insight into people.

Otherwise, Zhou Shan wouldn't have survived until today.

"So I'm telling you, be polite to this brother."

"Otherwise, you won't even know how you died."

"Do you hear me?"

"Heard you."

The two responded.

The next day.

Chen Hao and the others packed up and prepared to set off.

Zhou Shan said to Chen Hao, "Brother Chen Hao, what are your plans for later?"

Hearing this, Chen Hao said, "I want to head west."

"West?"

Hearing Chen Hao's words, Zhou Shan's eyes lit up.

"We're also planning to go west; why don't we travel together?"

"Alright."

Although they had only spent one night together, Chen Hao could feel that these guys weren't bad at heart.

So they traveled together.

The group walked west for another half a day.

By this time, it was noon.

The scorching sun hung high, and the cicadas in the forest were chirping incessantly.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The temperature around them was also rising at a visible rate.

Chen Hao and the others found a large tree and stopped.

"Hot, so hot!"

One guy took off his hat and kept fanning himself.

"Yeah!"

Another guy grabbed his collar and kept shaking it back and forth.

Chen Hao took a bottle of mineral water out of his backpack and handed it to Zhou Shan.

"Uncle Zhou, drink some water!"

"Thanks."

Zhou Shan took it, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip.

He sighed and said, "This is truly a hellish place."

"It's hot and humid, and there are so many mosquitoes."

"If we hadn't prepared insect repellent in advance, we would have been fed to the mosquitoes by now."

"Oh, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to sit over there for a while."

An underling saw a fallen tree not far away.

He intended to use the trunk of that tree as a stool and sit on it for a while. ===== CHAPTER 806 =====
