Accompanied by the sedan chair being taken deep into the mountain forest, the densely packed woods around it almost completely blocked out all external light, resembling a pitch-black giant mouth swallowing all life.
At this time, the eight sedan carriers also trembled in their hearts, but they endured the fear, remembering the rules given by the village chief.
They were to follow the path forward until they saw a black gigantic tree where they could put down the sedan and stop.
During this process, they could not speak a word or delay the auspicious time.
Not knowing how far they had walked, the carriers finally saw the black gigantic tree.
The entire tree was about 15 meters tall and as thick as several people hugging it together.
The bark was a blue-black color, not showing a single leaf, but was secreting a muddy yellow mucus.
