Chapter 9 Wild Fruit
The practice time passed quickly, and when Huaying opened her eyes again, her surroundings remained unchanged. There is no difference between day and night here, and she would not have stopped if she hadn't been hungry.

There were still some wild fruits in her bosom, and she casually stuffed a few into her mouth to fill her stomach slightly.

After she was full, Huaying picked up the book and continued to read.There were so many things she couldn't understand that she couldn't figure out whether her practice was effective.

"It seems that I have to find a way to learn to read, otherwise I won't be able to continue my practice."

Sighing regretfully, Huaying closed the book and stuffed it into her bosom, then read silently, and the next figure came to the original cave.

The jade pendant lay intact in the distance. After putting it away, she came to the entrance of the cave, removed the blocking stones, and prepared to go outside to see the situation.

"Hey, it seems that I have gained a lot of strength."

When moving the stone, Huaying obviously felt a lot more relaxed, which made her a little happy, and she became more determined to continue practicing.

"Ah, it's already dark."

Walking out of the cave, it was late at night outside, the moon was sparse, and the foot of the mountain was quiet, and occasionally the chirping of insects could be heard from the bushes.

Huaying couldn't help lamenting the passage of time, she didn't expect to practice for a short while, but a whole day had passed, no wonder she was so hungry.

It was too dark at night, and she didn't dare to go out to look for wild fruits rashly, so she simply went back to the cave.

I wanted to lie down and sleep on the spot, but it was too cold at night. When Huaying left the house, her clothes were thin and she couldn't bear the gradually cold weather, so she had to use the jade pendant to go back to the other side.

As soon as they passed by, Huaying keenly noticed something was wrong.

It is still under the starry sky, surrounded by white mist, and half an acre of land, everything seems to be normal, but
"Why are there a few small saplings here?"

Huaying rubbed her eyes, staring at something on the ground not far in front of her without blinking.

Those were a few saplings, just sprouting a few green leaves, about half the height of a person, looking full of vitality and emitting a faint fluorescence, very spiritual.

"I remember clearly not before."

Huaying remembers very clearly that the land was bare when she came here a few times before, and she regretted why such a good land was not planted with something, but she didn't expect that it was only a while ago that things really grew.

They are still juicy young saplings, as if jumping out of the soil all of a sudden, and their growth is frighteningly fast.

Huaying boldly moved closer, lying there curiously, observing carefully.

What surprised her even more was that the saplings were growing and rising at a speed visible to the naked eye. It took only a moment for side branches to sprout, buds to emerge, and leaves to be green and tender.

"How could such a thing happen?"

Huaying couldn't help but click her tongue, such a fast growth rate was unheard of, not even the fastest growing crops she had ever seen had such an astonishing speed.

The little saplings grew bigger and bigger, and Huaying didn't care about taking a break anymore, she continued to observe for a long time as if stuck there, until a few saplings grew taller than her, and she came back to her senses in a daze.

The more she looked at these saplings, the more familiar they looked, and she always felt that she had seen them somewhere.

correct.

"Aren't these the wild fruit trees I picked?"

The familiar shape of the leaves, as well as the green fruits that have just begun to bear, made her feel extremely familiar.

Huaying thought about it seriously, the wild fruit she ate before, the core seemed to be thrown here casually, could it be
A bold idea was born in the little girl's mind, and then it got out of hand.

"Is it really the sapling of the wild fruit tree?"

In order to prove her own idea, Huaying sat cross-legged in front of the sapling, quietly waiting for the moment when the wild fruit ripened.

As time passed, I don't know how long it took, the fruit tree grew taller and taller, and the green fruit gradually turned red, and the faint fruit fragrance spread, filling the entire space.

Huaying looked at the very tall fruit tree in front of her, and while she was shocked, she also walked forward slowly, climbed up the tree carefully, and picked a few fruits.

Bite lightly, and the familiar fruity aroma instantly filled her mouth. What surprised her even more was that not only was the fruit not as sour and bitter as before, but it was very sweet, and the taste was even comparable to other fruits on the market.

You must know that this is a wild fruit in the mountains. Huaying can't even pronounce the name. She only knows that in the past, adults would go up the mountain to pick this kind of wild fruit to satisfy their hunger only when there was a famine in the village. No one would pick this kind of wild fruit specially on weekdays. Take the wild fruit home to eat, because the taste of this fruit is really astringent, even if it is ripe, it will rarely have a sweet taste.

The half-baked ones she picked in the mountains before had an unspeakable bitter taste, and no one would eat them if they weren't so hungry.

"It's so fragrant, is this still a wild fruit?" Huaying muttered to herself after eating one after another.

The fruit was so delicious that she couldn't be sure whether it was grown from the seeds of the wild fruit, but if not, how could saplings grow out of thin air in this land?
It was unbelievable at the time.

Huaying stood under the tree, looking up at the fruits hanging on the branches, feeling inexplicably complicated in her heart.

This jade pendant that I picked up by accident is not only a treasure, but also a fairy. Could it be that the fairy in those storybooks really exists?Is this jade pendant the treasure of a fairy?
fairy.

To Huaying, this is an existence that is more legendary than the seniors of Huadaomen. The adults in the village hardly mention it, and the only one who is willing to talk about it is the teacher invited by the village.

Whenever the teacher told it, she and the children in the village listened to it as interesting stories, such as fairy moving mountains, fairy catching ghosts, fairy flying with swords, etc., which always make children feel excited. They both look forward to and feel absurd.

"Is there really a fairy?"

Thinking of this, Huaying shook her head, she couldn't figure out such a far-fetched matter, instead of thinking about the existence of immortals, it's better to figure out the things in front of her first.

The growth rate of wild fruit trees slowed down after they matured, but the fruits ripened very quickly. After the first round of fruits were fully ripe, they fell to the ground by themselves, and then began to bear new fruits.The new fruits are bigger and more numerous, but it seems that because there are too many, the ripening speed of the second round of fruits is much slower.

When Huaying picked up all the fruits on the ground and piled them up into a hill, the fruits on the tree were still green and showed no signs of ripening.

"It seems that growth has slowed down."

Huaying stood beside the mountain of fruit piles, staring blankly at some wild fruit trees.

Although she noticed some changes in the fruit tree, she didn't think too much about it. She just thought that the fruit tree was tired and wanted to take a rest. After all, she had never heard of any fruit tree that could always bear fruit.

"With so many wild fruits, I don't have to worry about going hungry, hee hee."

Sitting on so many wild fruits, Huaying felt extremely happy, and the whole person could not wait to throw herself into the pile of fruits and sleep happily.
