Chapter 34: The Fruit of the Shadow Tree
Lin Lan looked around and asked suspiciously, "Stinky fox, didn't you say that this Cangji Mountain is a good place?" Why don't you see any shocking landscapes except for the mountains and the lush vegetation? โ
"You're really lustful at home, don't say you like beautiful men, even the mountains only know whether they look good or not?" Lin Ruji said with a smile that it was a very happy thing for him to lose Lin Lan.
"Everyone has a love for beauty. If you don't know how to appreciate, don't pretend to be very connotative. Lin Lan was not polite, and retorted that it was called a speed.
"Lan'er, look." Qi Qingyi suddenly pointed to a tree on the cliff in front of him.
Lin Lan looked at his hand and immediately grew her mouth in surprise. On the top of the steep cliff, there was a straight tree, with only three branches, each with only six leaves, and between the two leaves was a large lilac flower with double petals, and one of the branches had a green fruit like a winter melon. Strangely, although there were only eighteen leaves on the tree, there were dense shadows around it, covering almost the entire cliff face. The lilac flowers sparkle and shine brightly, and look as bright as neon at night during the day.
"Little girl, you're really lucky." Lin Ruji's voice was also full of excitement, "This shadow tree only bears a fruit in ten thousand years, and it actually let you run into it." โ
"Shadowwood? It's no wonder that it only has a few leaves, but it can cast such a large shade of trees. Lin Lan came back to her senses, but the first thing she sighed was not that she had encountered any fruit that was rare in 10,000 years, but the shadow of a tree.
"This shadow wood is a leaf and a hundred shadows." Qi Qingyi was obviously in a very good mood, urging the clouds to speed up, and instantly arrived under the tree.
"It's amazing!" Lin Lan jumped off the clouds, touched the trunk of the tree excitedly, and sighed stupidly.
Lin Ruji suddenly appeared on the branch, reached out to pick the fruit that was a little too big, and jumped down.
"It's not ripe, you can pick it off." Lin Lan immediately became anxious when she saw it, didn't she say that it would only take 10,000 years to get married? It doesn't matter if it's useful or not, if it's wasted, it's worth those 10,000 years.
"Don't worry, Lan'er, it's already ripe. If the fruit of the shadow tree is not ripe, it will not appear. Qi Qingyi also came over to appease Lin Lan.
Lin Ruji hugged the fruit and said to Lin Lan with a smile: "Stinky girl, this fruit is a good thing." The demon can instantly increase the demon power if it eats it, and the immortal can help him avoid a thunderstorm. People can eat as light as a swallow, jumping dozens of zhang high and hundreds of zhang away. โ
"Then give it to Master." When Lin Lan heard this, she immediately went to grab it.
Lin Ruji dodged and said dissatisfiedly: "Stinky girl, you are too partial." โ
"Master can avoid the thunderstorm by eating it, and that really works. You and I can't eat a little more and have useless skills, and in the end, it's almost the same as being useless at all. Lin Lan saw that she couldn't grab it, so she patiently reasoned with Lin Ruji, "So, we ate a lot of waste." Give it to my master. โ
Lin Ruji was a little unhappy when she saw that Lin Lan was so eccentric and clear, so she returned to sit on the branch of the shadow tree with the melon in her arms, pretending to look at the scenery and ignoring Lin Lan.
Qi Qingyi smiled and patted Lin Lan's shoulder and said, "Lan'er, that fruit is so big, not to mention being a teacher, ten people are enough to eat." โ
Lin Lan reacted at this time, and asked with some disbelieving: "Can you eat it separately?" โ
"Of course." Qi Qingyi said in a light tone, "The demon king is seriously injured, if he eats this fruit, the demon power can be restored almost instantly, and he doesn't have to live in your dantian." โ
"Really?" Lin Lan was happy, raised her head and said to Lin Ruji, "Hey, stinky fox, you come down." We ate it separately. โ
"If you have the ability, you can come up and get it!" Lin Ruji didn't bother to look at her and continued to look at the scenery.
If you go up, you can go up, who is afraid of whom. Lin Lan rolled up her sleeves and spit twice at the palm of her hand, and then hugged the trunk of the tree and slowly climbed up in an extremely unsightly way with her arms and legs wrapped around the tree but in a very effective way. The bundle of immortal ropes shook on her arm, and she directly pretended to be dead and fell. Shame, shame! How could it meet such a master! You can climb a tree so ugly!
Lin Lan finally climbed to the branch of the tree, and asked breathlessly, "Stinky fox, can you give it to me now?" โ
Lin Ruji simply jumped off the tree, found a flat place under the tree, waved her hand to conjure a table and three chairs, put the fruit on the table, and sat down elegantly, then said to Lin Lan with a smile: "Stinky girl, come down and eat melons." โ
Lin Lan gritted her teeth, gritted her teeth again! But she still had to slowly climb down again, glared at Lin Ruji angrily, and said viciously: "Give me half of it, and you can only eat a small half!" โ
"Borrow your Qingyun Sword and use it." Lin Ruji ignored Lin Lan and said to Qi Qingyi.
Ji Qingyi was not polite to him, and sat down on the chair elegantly, took out the reluctant Qingyun Sword from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Ruji.
Qingyun Sword really wanted to cry, it was a dignified artifact, rampant in the Six Realms for many years, and it was actually used as a fruit knife by a goblin. It's too embarrassing to say it. How will it mix up in the future? This time, it was rare that the immortal rope was not sรจ, and it quietly climbed back to Lin Lan's arm. Looking at Qingyun Sword's sad appearance, it was really scared, the fate of offending Qi Qingyi and Lin Lan was too miserable, and it was safer to try to reduce its sense of survival.
Lin Ruji brushed and waved three times in a very chic manner, and before Lin Lan could see how he moved, the fruit of the shadow tree had already been cut into six pieces by him, and not even a drop of juice flowed out. Lin Ruji nodded with satisfaction: "The Qingyun Sword really lives up to its reputation, and it is sharp enough." โ
"It's just a melon." Lin Lan immediately gave in for Qingyun Sword, "You are overkill." โ
Qingyun Sword's face has been completely lost, and it can only be silent except for silence.
Qi Qingyi smiled and beckoned Lin Lan to sit down, and said lightly: "Don't underestimate this cut melon, it is also a test of the sharpness of the sword." Like the fruit of this shadow wood, the outer skin is hard as iron, and the inner side is soft and juicy. If the sword is not sharp enough, it will not be easy to cut it well. โ
Qingyun Jian listened to Qi Qingyi's explanation, and immediately consummated, it turned out that the owner trusted it to use it to cut melons. I just misunderstood him.
"Oh." Lin Lan looked very teachable, picked a piece from the table that he thought was the largest, handed it to Ji Qingyi, and said with a smile, "Master, you eat." โ
Qi Qingyi took it and took a bite very elegantly. Lin Ruji glared at Lin Lan. Lin Lan glared at him and asked viciously, "What are you staring at, I haven't seen a beautiful woman." โ
Lin Ruji pursed her lips, then picked up a piece of melon and ate it elegantly. Lin Lan was not polite, picked up a large piece, and bit it down viciously. The sweet juice slid down her tongue, cool and smooth, like the smoothest silk in the world. Lin Lan squinted her eyes in enjoyment, and praised inarticulate while eating: "It's delicious, it's delicious." โ
