Chapter 556 The Thousand-Year Fragrant Torreya Tree Group_1
"We went to the white lake on the east side, then entered the mountains, and things were strange there."
"Strange in what way?"
"The stones were strange, the trees were strange." Murphy cocked his head and thought for a moment before saying, "From a distance, the stones looked like human figures, but up close, they didn’t; there were some strange markings on the stones, like horse hoof prints and slashes from swords."
This information obviously was not the cause of the Yin energy they were uncomfortable with, and you nodded, "What about the trees? What was strange about them?"
As soon as the trees were mentioned, Frank’s face changed immediately, and he stood up tensely, flailing his arms in an attempt to express something: "Those trees are alive, those trees are alive!"
Murphy followed Frank’s words, his expression also darkening considerably: "Inside those stones, there were strange trees growing, they call them God Wood, and the fruits on the God Wood are the Three-Life Fruits."
Upon hearing this, Zong Wangyue couldn’t help but smile, "You foreigners really lack experience. The Three-Life Fruits are the Fragrant Torreya that we just ate. This happens because when a Fragrant Torreya tree reaches an age of three hundred years, a very special phenomenon occurs. A tree will have fruits from three different ages; it blooms in the first year, bears fruit in the second year, and the fruits mature in the third year."
"No, you’re wrong," Murphy said, head lowered, her originally rejuvenated complexion gradually turning pale again, "those trees, like human fingers, grew out of the soil, they moved!"
"Yes, they moved, they were alive!" shouted Frank abruptly, his dark eyes becoming deeper, "They said the fruit from that tree could prolong one’s life by a hundred years, so I climbed up and picked a few, came back and fried the seeds to eat, then... then..."
Frank covered his head with both hands, his face showing an expression of great pain.
