Although the giant tree has a certain degree of spirituality, it is obviously still at a very low stage, and its behavior is somewhat silly.

After hearing Lin Tuo's words, he immediately became entangled, seeming to be thinking about what to do.

The next second, it seemed to have finally made a decision. Some of the branches continued to pull the fruit inwards, while the other part slowly extended, trying to wrap and protect itself.

After hesitating for a moment, he became even fiercer and threw out a branch, trying to push Lin Tuo away.

Seeing this scene, Lin Tuo raised his eyebrows slightly, and using the trick of his own Lishan Sword, he opened his mouth and spit out a sword light condensed by ether.

"Ugh~"

The branch was immediately cut off, and half of it fell off. The giant tree was so frightened that it quickly retracted its branches and shivered. On the crown of the tree, leaves fell one after another, and they fell one after another, as if it was raining.

"You can't stop me, let me see and I won't take it from you." Lin Tuo stared at this giant tree that was born with wisdom and said.

The other party doesn't move.

Lin Tuo found it more and more interesting and did not continue to do anything. He thought about it and said seriously:

"If I really want to rob, you can't stop me anyway, right? You're planted here and you can't run away. If you really don't worry, you can just pull the hook. Well, it's a kind of etiquette to abide by the agreement."

As he spoke, Lin Tuo raised his right hand and felt that his fingers were too small, so he simply spread his palm.

The giant tree seemed to be stunned for a moment. The curly leaves slowly unfolded, and the twigs at the severed ends were stretched out again, trying to touch Lin Tuo's palm.

Seeing that it had not been cut off again, he seemed to be relieved. When Lin Tuo took the initiative to hold the twigs and shook them, the leaves stopped falling off.

Pulling and tugging, it seems to have completed some kind of ritual.

The next second, the shrunken branches unfolded, and the branch with the only fruit hanging on it flew carefully from the distance, then slowly dropped, hanging in front of Lin Tuo.

At this time, he finally saw the appearance of this strange fruit... It was very large, about as tall as Lin Tuo, oval, slightly flat, and had a light golden color, reminiscent of a mango.

As for the smell, there is no smell.

It hangs alone on the branch, releasing a faint etheric fluctuation.

"What's this?"

Lin Tuo was really confused. He raised his hand and touched the giant tree nervously. Immediately, Lin Tuo was surprised to feel that there was a very slight vibration coming from inside the whole fruit:

Bang...bang...bang...

Like a heartbeat!

Moreover, whether it was an illusion or the sensitivity of the "inhuman state", when he heard the heartbeat, a glimmer of understanding arose in his heart:

life!

There is probably life inside this fruit!

"Is it an illusion or reality... A tree species mutated by the ether can actually give birth to other lives?"

Lin Tuo was a little surprised. After all, the previous evolutions were still in line with the route of human evolution.

At this moment, he had the urge to dig it open and find out what was going on.

However, just when his thoughts came up, the branch hanging in front of him retracted with a "snap".

Infinite branches and leaves wrap around the fruit, and the entire tree, even the pure white fluorescence, is flickering... as if it is on extreme vigilance.

So keen... Lin Tuo was slightly startled and realized that Jumu had not really "understood" his language before, but had sensed his emotional changes through some kind of "talent".

Thinking of this, Lin Tuo suddenly became interested in testing, and deliberately lowered his face. In the palm of his hand, green and white aura surged, and he condensed an etheric sword and said coldly:

"Bring it to me and see!"

"Crash..." The giant tree became more and more frightened. Thousands of branches were flying, slowly trying to wrap the fruit, and the leaves fell, showing a sad emotion in a very humane way.

With its innate induction, it knew very well that its branches could not withstand the cutting of the mysterious sword energy, and as Lin Tuo said, the roots fixed in the earth made it escape countless times.

"You seem to be afraid of me?" Lin Tuo sneered and took a step forward.

"Crash..." As the leaves withered, some branches in the far distance of the huge tree crown suddenly drooped. They scratched on the ground, and then slowly brought bundles of white broken branches to Lin Tuo.

Those are the old branches that fell off the giant trees. Although they have lost their luster, they reveal a somewhat metallic texture.

Lin Tuo raised his eyebrows and suddenly guessed something: "You want to give these to me?"

"Wow." The tree crown moved forward, seeming to be nodding.

Lin Tuo continued: "Want to use these in exchange for me not grabbing your fruit?"

The giant tree nodded again.

Lin Tuo's eyes became more and more strange, and he said: "I am not short of firewood, what if I don't agree?"

The giant tree was startled for a moment, and its branches trembled, as if it was very angry. The branches made a "pull the hook" motion, as if asking why words don't count...

Seeing this scene, the chill on Lin Tuo's face dissipated, he couldn't help but laugh, and then released the Ether Sword under Jumu's puzzled "look":

"It seems that your sensitivity to emotions is limited to the surface, and you cannot detect your inner thoughts." Lin Tuo concluded, and then smiled, "Don't worry, I won't be able to trick a tree and I can't afford to embarrass that person.

However, I am really looking forward to it, I hope you are still alive next time we meet."

After saying that, Lin Tuo reached out and pulled out a branch:

"You can't come here in vain. This is just a gift. See you later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he left in the air and quickly disappeared into the night.

The giant tree was left looking at the sky in confusion for a while, until it could no longer feel Lin Tuo's breath, and then it spread out its branches again and swayed gently.

…

…

At the same time, Lishan Study Room.

Lin Tuo quietly looked down at the Moon Sea Continent, thoughtfully, then called out the virtual panel and opened "Time Acceleration".

With the injection of huge computing power, the whole world began to evolve, turning into a slightly hazy light and shadow.

At the same time, he also fixed the running log interface on the retina for easy observation.

The changes in the giant tree fruit did surprise him, but rather than plundering in advance to satisfy curiosity, it was obviously more sensible to evolve and wait for the results.

"It's a pity, I don't know if I can see the results tonight."

Muttering, Lin Tuo turned to the branch in his hand and observed it carefully under the light.

It's like gold and jade, a very strange material. It's not too hard, but has good flexibility.

With nothing going on, Lin Tuo immediately tested the material and was surprised to find that its ability to conduct ether was better than pure silver, and it was lighter.

"Is it because that tree is catalyzed by ether..." Lin Tuo thought thoughtfully and laughed softly, "This can be considered an unexpected gain.

Well, if I make some magic spells in the future, I can try to use this material for instruments."

Different materials exert different spell effects, which he determined very early on.

This type of matrix material is better, such as blood, which will gradually lose its effectiveness as it is left for a long time. For example, if a jar of Warcraft blood is left for a long time, its effectiveness will decrease.

In fact, there is a better source of blood supply in Lishan, and that is Huaxi.

The little girl's special ability is to recover from injuries. In theory, the consumed blood can be quickly replenished through food, but Lin Tuo is too embarrassed to use his own students as materials...

"Well, I can't bear to do bloodletting, but it seems that the blood that naturally flows out every month can be used..."

Thinking of this, Lin Tuo shuddered and quickly put aside this dangerous and weird idea!

But then, another thought came to my mind:

"But speaking of it, Hua Xi is already old enough to be an aunt...wait, what on earth am I thinking??"

Lin Tuo rubbed his face hard, forced his thoughts back, and said with a wry smile:

"It seems that I overused my brain in making the star gate, so I'm going to sleep."

After muttering, he stopped thinking about it, took a final look at the Evolution sand table, turned off the light and went to sleep in the bedroom next door.

Only the small, glistening white tree remains, becoming more and more prosperous as time goes by.

The number of fruits on the tree also changed from one, to two, to three... more and more...

…

The night breeze blew gently, and the Lishan courtyard was peaceful.

Next door, when he saw that the lights in Lin Tuo's bedroom were turned off, Hua Xi, who had taken a shower and changed into pajamas, also climbed onto the bed, and then glanced at Hathaway, who was sitting on the ball on the table, holding her chin and looking out the window.

Can't help but say:

"What are you looking at? Not sleeping?"

However, Hathaway, who had been chattering all the time, changed from her normal behavior at this moment, sitting on the crystal ball, keeping her chin on her back, and said:

"Is this the real moon?"

Huaxi patted the buckwheat skin pillow, then covered himself with the quilt, yawned and said:

"Yeah, how about it? How do you feel when you see the real moon?"

After fighting with the opponent for a day, Huaxi probably figured out who this woman was. According to her, she seemed to be living in a game... and was later taken out by the teacher.
To be continued...
