"What?" Chu Mingxu was shocked, and the beans in his hand fell to the ground: "How come?"

Wen Shi sobbed and said, "Grandpa died of illness five years ago. ”

Chu Mingxu was silent for a long time and asked, "What disease is you?"

"[Cold]," Wen Shi said, wiping away his tears.

"Cold disease, just a small cold illness actually took his life?" Chu Mingxu couldn't accept it.

Only then did he realize that he was different from Wen Boyu, he was a martial artist, but Wen Boyu was still only a great martial artist, and he had not yet reached the realm of grandmasters.

A hundred years later, Wen Boyu is already old, and it is normal for him to die of being entangled in cold diseases.

Chu Mingxu sighed faintly, looked at Wen Shi and asked, "Where are your parents?"

"I don't have parents?" Wen Shi shook his head.

Chu Mingxu was slightly stunned again, how could it be? Wen Boyu even has a grandson, so it's right to have a child.

The next moment he had an answer.

Wen Shi continued: "I picked it up by my grandfather nearby. ”

Chu Mingxu suddenly realized, this scene made him think that Wen Boyu seemed to have picked up the [big tree].

[Big Tree] has a relationship with this child, he thought to himself.

Chu Mingxu put away his thoughts, looked at the surrounding fruit trees and asked, "These are all planted by your grandfather?"

Wen Shi shook his head: "No, grandpa said that they grew on their own." ”

Chu Mingxu was surprised: "Grow it yourself?"

"Hmm. Wen Shi said: "In the past two years, I have seen a [green pear tree] grow out of nothing. ”

Chu Mingxu looked at the [Big Tree] with a sigh and muttered to himself, "It seems that you were blinded at that time, you are not simple!"

But so far, he hadn't seen anything wonderful about the Great Tree.

It's not like a magic plant at all, because it has no magic at all, it's not aggressive, and it looks like an ordinary tree.

However, its growth cycle is not ordinary at all, and after a hundred years, it has only grown one meter taller, which is unbelievable.

Chu Mingxu retracted his gaze and looked at Wen Shi, "What's your name?"

Wen Shi replied, "Wen Shi." ”

"It's good to have your grandfather's last name. Chu Mingxu nodded, and immediately gave him a license plate and said: "You come to the imperial city once a month in the future, go to the city gate to collect money, show this license, and they will give it to you." ”

"If someone follows you, don't be afraid, someone will help you solve it, take good care of the [Big Tree], it is your grandfather's hard work. ”

He patted Wen Shi on the shoulder and said earnestly.

Wen Shi took the license and wanted to refuse, but when he looked up, Chu Mingxu had already disappeared.

He was stunned for a while, took the license and walked straight to the foot of the [big tree], and came to the back of the [big tree], where there was a raised cemetery, which was the place where Wen Boyu was buried.

"Grandpa, according to your instructions, I fried [Mian Bean] for you and gave him to eat, but unfortunately there were two people who didn't come. Wen Shi said to the tombstone.

He clutched the license plate and muttered, "Did you say I was going to collect the money?"

Wenshi didn't go to get the money in the first month, and he didn't go in the second and third months.

In the fourth month he went to the imperial city, but instead of collecting money, he went to ask for help.

Ten miles away from the natural orchard, there is a small village, which has been newly built in the past hundred years.

Wenshi often brings fruit to the village to buy it.

But one day he saw the horse thieves burning and looting in the village, he was so frightened that he hurriedly turned around, and after returning home and thinking twice, he resolutely found the license plate and immediately went into the city to ask for help.

It was only a breeze for the Imperial City to send troops to sweep away the horse thieves, and when the matter was over, the general forced the money into him, and then said:

"Come on time every month after that. ”

Then he returned with his troops.

From then on, Wenshi began to receive state money and also began to contact the people of the city.

After that, he found a daughter-in-law, a woman who was willing to stay with him in the [natural orchard].

Later, the orchard encountered a fight between two strong men and destroyed half of the fruit trees.

Wen Shi asked the imperial city for help again, and Chu Mingxu was furious and personally took action to cripple the two strong men.

Then everyone knew that the [Natural Orchard] was covered by the emperor, and no one dared to cause trouble in the [Natural Orchard] again.

After that, Wen Shi gave birth to a child, and the child continued to inherit his business, and the child's child continued to inherit his business, and so on.

The Wen family has gradually developed into a big family, there are all kinds of birds in the forest, there are a lot of good people and bad people, and more people don't want to stay in an orchard for the rest of their lives, so the family split, some of them find another way out, some of them go to the imperial city, and Liao Liao and a few people continue to stick to the orchard business.

After that, each developed in its own way, and the people who entered the imperial city were unknown after a hundred years, reduced to a small family merchant.

I don't know much about going out, but I haven't heard of them on the mainland, so I shouldn't be famous.

And the people who stayed in the orchard have not changed, and they continue to manage the orchard as always.

During this period, Chu Mingxu took the branches and leaves of the [Big Tree] and handed them over to the [Scientific Research Pavilion] for study, he wanted to know the secret of changing the soil quality, and then implement the national land transformation plan.

It's a pity that I failed to graft after finding a few trial planting sites, and the [Scientific Research Pavilion] didn't come up with any results, and the conclusion was that it was just a nameless tree.

Chu Mingxu did not give up, and took people to the [Natural Orchard] to sample and study.

Researchers spent two hundred years in orchards, spending tens of billions of dollars, and in the end found nothing, well, not for nothing, and a deeper understanding of various plants.

It can be said that their plant knowledge can be ranked second in the whole continent, because the first is the elven race, which is undisputed.

In the end, Chu Mingxu had no choice but to give up this research.

Six hundred years later, Chu Mingxu took office and the new emperor took office, which had nothing to do with [Natural Orchard].

[Natural Orchard] has stopped expanding at this time, and the area is stable at 300 acres.

The new emperor ordered the orchard to be walled just for the sake of good looks.

He gave the orchard a name, "Natural Orchard".

The Natural Orchard was born.

He also gave the "Big Tree" a nickname, "Fukuzawa Immortal Tree", hoping that it would bring blessings to the whole country just as it brought blessings to the orchards.

After a long time, few people say [Big Tree], and few people call [Fuze Immortal Tree], and they are all directly referred to as [Immortal Tree].

And with the passage of time, many myths and rumors have been extended, adding a bit of mystery to the [Immortal Tree].

For example, when the [Immortal Tree] blooms is when it transforms into a human form.

For another example, the [Immortal Tree] bears fruit once in a million years, and it can soar on the spot and become a god in one fell swoop.

It's a pity that thousands of years have passed, not to mention the fruit, not even a single flower has bloomed.

For another example, the [Immortal Tree] is connected to another world, and when the time comes, the two worlds will be connected, and the people of the two worlds will come into contact.

As soon as this statement came out, it set off a wave of enthusiasm at the time, and some people said that it was too dangerous to not be able to connect with another world.

There are also people who object, saying that it is good to be in contact with another world, and that if you can see new things, you may be friends on the other side.

Some people also believe that the [Immortal Tree] may be connected to the Divine Realm, and the [Immortal Tree] can directly reach the Divine Realm.

On the other hand, there must be some people who think that the [Immortal Tree] is connected to the Demon Realm, which is too dangerous.

Of course, there are also people who scoff at all kinds of opinions, heh, they are all rumors, stupid people.

Anyway, there were all kinds of rumors circulating among the people, and there were heated discussions at the time.

It's just that the [Immortal Tree] is like a person who has nothing to do, still standing in the [Natural Orchard].

In the end, all the rumors were extinguished in time, and even when they were mentioned, they were just laughing and laughing, and they would not be serious.

After all, except for the fact that the [Immortal Tree] brought this orchard and grew slowly, it was too ordinary in other aspects, so ordinary that it stood there, even if it was mythical, it would fade.
