Origin Legend: Heroic Hymn

After an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped and a familiar voice was heard from inside.

"Boss! We're here!"

Everyone got off the carriage one by one. The carriage stopped in front of a forest. A middle-aged man wearing a bamboo hat stood outside the carriage.

"Uncle Ryan, thank you for your hard work. I've always wondered why you always come when we go out."

Every time Dong Yu and his team went out on a mission, Ryan was the coachman, which made Dong Yu a little confused, but Ryan was always very kind to them, just like an elder, without any malice, and even charged very little. Ryan smiled and looked at Dong Yu affectionately.

"Because my children are as old as you are now, but I have never been able to go back to see them, and I don't know how they are doing. And I really like being with children, and seeing you is like seeing my own children. This is what I specifically asked my boss for. If you don't like it, I can go back and tell my boss..."

Ryan's expression became obviously a little disappointed and he sighed softly. Dong Yu immediately realized that his words had made him misunderstand, and he quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry! Uncle Ryan, that's not what I meant. I'm just curious. We also like traveling with you, but why don't you go back and see them?"

A flash of sadness flashed across Ryan's eyes, then he adjusted his attitude and smiled.

"Haha! Because I want to make money! With the money, they can live a better life! Don't you still have to carry out the mission? Go now!"

Dong Yu and the others didn't care and nodded slightly at him.

"Okay! Uncle Ryan, we'll go on with our mission first. You can go to a nearby town and rest for a while!"

"go Go!"

Ryan waved at them, Dong Yu and the others smiled back, and walked into the woods. Looking at the children's backs as they walked away, Ryan sighed deeply.

"I also want to go back and see them. Alas..."

……

"Xiaoyu, Uncle Ryan is so pitiful. You should give him more money so that he can go home to see his children earlier."

Alice suddenly held Dong Yu's hand, but for some reason, her face turned red when she talked about the child. But Dong Yu didn't care too much. She just patted the back of Alice's hand gently and looked at Alice with a smile, but there was some sadness in Dong Yu's tone.

"Yes! Children who can't see their fathers are also pitiful, alas..."

"Xiaoyu, I'm sorry..."

Alice lowered her head in guilt, obviously thinking of Dong Yu's life experience, and Dong Yu touched her head gently.

"It's okay... don't worry about it..."

"Huh? Did something happen?"

At this time, an inappropriate voice sounded. Alice glared at Ling Feng fiercely. Ling Feng also realized that he had said the wrong thing, but Dong Yu waved at Alice.

"It's okay, Alice... I don't have any concept of the word 'dad'. I haven't seen him since I can remember. My mother raised me and my sister. She always said that my father was very busy, but he never came back. He didn't come back until my mother passed away. My sister and I thought he must have died while on a mission."

Ling Feng then realized that he had accidentally stepped on a landmine and lowered his head to apologize.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

"It's okay. By the way, Alice, what is our mission this time? And who is the client?"

Dong Yu changed the subject at the right time to ease the awkward situation. At this time, an old man's voice came from the jungle not far from them.

"Now that you are here, I am your client, come over here..."

Everyone looked in that direction at the same time, and then looked at each other. Alice and Rita nodded and walked over there. Dong Yu and the others followed.

As they approached the bush, the surrounding trees actually made way for them. Just as everyone was surprised, the old man's voice sounded again.

"come in……"

Just as Alice and Rita were about to go in, they were stopped by Ling Feng and Dong Yu. They shook their heads at them at the same time and walked in front of them. Alice and Rita felt warm in their hearts and followed them silently.

The further they walked, the wider the road became. When they reached the end of the intersection, a whole new world appeared before them. It was so beautiful that it looked like a paradise.

Just as everyone was attracted by the beautiful scenery before them, the leaves on the ground moved without wind, and a white-haired old man appeared in front of them. The old man was hunched over and looked at them with a smile.

"Welcome, my name is Hu Qinren, and I'm the guardian of the Love Tree."

"Love Tree!!!"

Everyone looked at him in amazement. Dong Yu and Ling Feng then understood why Alice and Rita reacted after Fu Minnie and Bai Shengyu came in.

"Yes! Love tree, love tree reflects love, love tree reflects the same heart. It is said that a long time ago, there was a beautiful girl who wandered and played in the jungle every day without any worries.

Until one day, she met a young knight and was deeply attracted to him. The knight was also attracted by her innocence and beauty, and the two were together every day.

They fell in love, but the good times didn't last long. The knight was called up by the kingdom and he never returned. The girl waited for him in lovesickness but never saw him again.

She was originally a maid of the gods in heaven. She prayed to the gods to find his whereabouts, but she only got the news of his death. Heartbroken, she gave up her infinite life and turned into a love tree to protect lovers in the world, hoping that all lovers in the world will eventually get married. "

Everyone was silent. Alice and Rita looked at their lovers. Dong Yu and Ling Feng also looked at them, holding hands tighter. The old man sighed with emotion and spoke again.

"You guys come with me."

Everyone followed the old man to a huge tree. Everyone looked up at the tree, which was towering into the clouds. Under the sunlight, the glittering pink crown appeared extremely soft. A breeze blew by, rolling up the fallen leaves, which fluttered in the air, making people feel inexplicably calm instead of their restless mood.

"This is the love tree. The love tree only bears one fruit in its lifetime, symbolizing one's single heart. But a few days ago, the love fruit was eaten by a clever monkey, so I want you to help find it back."

"But the love fruit has been eaten for several days, right? Won't it be digested?"

Ling Feng asked his question, but the old man gently stroked the tree trunk and smiled.

"The love fruit only bears one fruit in its lifetime. Some people also say that it is made from the heart of the maid of the god. It is eternal and unchanging, and will not rot or fall off. So how can it be digested?"

"So we just need to find the monkey? But where should we start looking, and what are the characteristics of the monkey?"

Dong Yu looked at the old man in confusion, and the old man nodded and smiled kindly.

"Yes! You just need to find the monkey. It can't be too far away from the tree to eat the love fruit. It should be within a thousand meters of the tree. The monkey is snow-white and has a third eye on its forehead.

Remember not to hurt it. If it dies before the love fruit is taken out, the love fruit will also disappear.

So you can use these things! Because the monkey stole the love fruit, these ropes made of love tree branches will be sensitive to the monkey when they find the other ropes. "

The old man conjured up some red ropes of different lengths and thicknesses out of thin air and handed them to them. Dong Yu took the ropes and looked at them carefully. Ling Feng pulled out a rope with a diameter of three centimeters and a length of five meters and tried to inject magic power into it.

The rope seemed to be alive and changed into various shapes according to Ling Feng's wishes. Everyone looked at this magical scene in amazement, and Rita's eyes were shining with excitement.
