This space in the belly of the mountain is ten feet high and more than a hundred feet wide, making it extremely wide.
At a location near the innermost space of the mountain, there is an underground river flowing through it. In the middle of the river, there is a continent in the river with a radius of only one foot. On this continent, a lonely strange tree grows.
The whole strange tree is jet black, three to four inches thick and no more than four to five feet tall. Its branches are smooth and glowing in the black.
There are red leaves hanging on the branches. The leaves are long and narrow. Each one is like a work of art made of jade. Red light shines from the inside to the outside, faintly illuminating the space inside the mountain.
in addition……
There are eight fist-sized fruits hanging on the branches of the strange tree. The surface of the fruits is also red, and there are flashes of light from time to time.
On one of the branches, there was a broken stem that had been torn off, and it seemed that a fruit had been torn off.
"I see……"
It turns out that this mandrill’s opportunity lies here.
At first glance, this fruit is much more advanced than the Biluo fruit. If the mandrill is allowed to wrap the circle by himself, I'm afraid it will really create a powerful monster. Anyway, it will definitely be much more powerful than him now.
But now it's all cheaper for Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng reached out to pick it off, but suddenly stopped.
"Wait a minute, is there any explanation for this thing?" Lu Zheng blinked, "There won't be any restrictions such as eating it immediately as soon as it is taken off, right?"
Lu Zheng thought of the various routines in modern online novels. Anyway, no protagonist can get good things smoothly and directly.
"And where are the guardian spirit beasts?"
"Oh, yes, that mandrill should be the guardian spirit beast, but it was just guarding and stealing, and then I killed it."
Lu Zheng took two steps back, then started to circle around the strange tree, and then used his true energy to test the strange tree and its fruits.
Be cautious and be prepared for this strange tree to attack at any time and to cross over immediately.
Um……
Lu Zheng had already touched the strange tree, but the strange tree did not fight back.
Testing...
Five of the eight fruits no longer absorb spiritual energy from the strange tree. Instead, all the spiritual energy is locked into the pulp. Every bit of pulp contains huge spiritual energy.
The other three fruits were a little smaller and seemed not yet ripe. There were still lines of spiritual energy circulating inside the fruits. The spiritual energy and the strange tree formed a circulation system.
However, even if it is separated from the external circulation, the spiritual energy in the pulp will not escape, but the effect will definitely be much worse.
Lu Zheng's eyes flashed, and without saying a word, he picked five of the ripe fruits.
As for the remaining three...
Lu Zheng's eyes flickered, he thought about it for a while, but still didn't take it off.
"That's all, too much is too little, don't be greedy, just leave it to someone you are destined for."
Suppressing the greed in his heart, Lu Zheng had the illusion of brushing away the veil from his eyes.
But it was only for a moment. When Lu Zheng experienced it carefully, he didn't feel any difference in himself.
Shaking his head, Lu Zheng put the fruit into the gourd, then came to the cave exit and escaped again.
…
Just now, Lu Zheng was chasing mandrills all the way deep into the mountains and forests, but Liu Qingyan and the girls from Wuxiuzhuang did not follow.
One is that Du Yueyao and others still need to be taken care of, and the other is that they have full confidence in Lu Zheng.
How many powerful enemies have been killed, but a mandrill who only bullies others with his body, isn't that easy to catch?
What's more, the mandrill was beaten away by Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng left the valley and went back along the road he came from. He soon arrived at the village and saw several people filling a large tomb with soil.
"Did you kill that mandrill?" Liu Qingyan came up and asked.
"Yes." Lu Zheng nodded, "I chased the mandrill until it returned to its nest, and then I killed it."
Liu Qingyan pulled Lu Zheng to another deep pit. Lu Zheng saw the bodies of more than 20 mandrills in the pit.
Lu Zheng patted the gourd, and the mandrill's body was thrown out of the gourd and thrown into the pit.
Then the soil was filled to make a grave, so that the group of mandrills could be buried here.
Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Qingyan said, "Let's stay here for one night and then move to another village."
Everyone nodded, Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Let's have a barbecue tonight, and then I'll give you something good to relieve your tiredness."
"What good thing is it?" Yu Mingxin's character couldn't help but asked immediately out of curiosity.
It is indeed suitable to be used as a compliment.
Lu Zheng laughed, reached out and touched the mouth of the gourd, turned his palm over, and a red fruit suddenly appeared in his palm.
"Spiritual fruit!"
Although there is no trace of spiritual energy escaping, just looking at the flickering light on its surface, one knows that this thing is definitely a spiritual fruit.
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I tested it with my true energy, and I felt that the spiritual energy in this fruit is hundreds of times stronger than the Biluo fruit, so this one fruit is enough for all of us to share the benefits."
"Hiss——" The girls couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
The spiritual fruit, which is hundreds of times more powerful than the Biluo fruit, takes hundreds of years to ripen, right? I'm afraid this fruit is older than them all!
"Okay!" Liu Qingyan nodded repeatedly.
Looking at Du Yueyao and the others, Lu Zheng also smiled and said, "You can also eat, but you can only eat a little to avoid making up for it."
Of course, spiritual fruits can be eaten by mortals, but they should not be eaten too much. Overnutrition is actually a disease.
Du Yueyao pursed her lips and smiled, and Yulan's happiness was written directly on her face.
"Let's go chop wood!"
Knowing that this spiritual fruit can be eaten by oneself, even if one cannot refine one's energy and live forever, one can still be healthy. Du Yueyao's two guards burst out with amazing enthusiasm and chopped enough firewood for everyone to cook porridge for ten consecutive days.
…
In the evening, a bonfire is lit.
Everyone took out grain, dried meat, fruits, etc., and two guards volunteered to help everyone barbecue.
Lu Zheng also brought out modern dipping sauces and feasted with everyone.
After eating until mid-morning, when they were almost done, Lu Zheng took out the fruit with his backhand, held it up with clouds, and divided it into portions according to the physiques of several people.
When the peel is damaged and the juice flows out, a faint aura floats out.
"Gudu..." A guard couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Alright, let's eat quickly while the spiritual energy has not dissipated!"
"Thank you Mr. Lu!"
"Thank you, Brother Lu!"
"Thank you Mr. Lu for the reward!"
The flesh of Lu Zheng, Liu Qingyan and Wu Xiuzhuang's five girls is relatively large, but the flesh of Du Yueyao is smaller than a fingernail.
Eat it in one bite and go straight to the head.
When the spiritual energy enters the body, it immediately spreads in the stomach, and then blends into the limbs and bones, increasing the true energy of the bones and blood.
Liu Qingyan's face turned red, her eyes were watery and foggy, as if she had drank a glass of sake.
All the five girls in Wuxiuzhuang were like this. Even Du Yueyao and the other four were in a state of ecstasy. They were immediately drunk after one sip.
Fortunately, the effect of the spiritual fruit was mild, and the benefits were not too much for a few people, so it took a while to recover.
"Good guy! The effect of this fruit is quite strong!" Lu Zheng was secretly speechless.
After dividing the spiritual fruit, it was getting late. Everyone thanked Lu Zheng again before falling asleep.
