Chapter 167 Happy Town 62
Suddenly remembered something, Gu Jingmeng glanced at Hua Wumian, "What's the situation with those fruits?"

Hua Wumian twitched the corner of her mouth, "From now on, it will be about the fruit."

"When the bodies in these two wells accumulated more and more, and the inside became darker and darker, two trees actually grew on the stone ground beside the wells."

As Hua Wumian said, she pointed to the location next to the two wells. There were some very faint soil marks on the ground there, just like stains on the ground, which could not be seen without a close inspection.

"The two trees grow on the far right and left of the three wells, forming a symmetry. The trees still bear colorful fruits, which are the kind we use for blessing."

"The tree grew overnight, and the monks in the temple were the first to discover it. They thought it was a gift from the gods."

"According to what they said, some of them have eaten these fruits, but those who ate the fruits died that night. After closing their eyes, they never opened them again."

"From this, they speculated that the gods were moved by the people in the town, and couldn't bear them to die so much every year, so they gave two trees, and the fruits on the trees were used as sacrifice gifts."

"Because when the two trees first grew, the monks in the temple felt that this was food given to them by the gods, and they were very excited. Many people ate the fruits, so many people died."

"The monks who are still alive have regarded the three wells as fetishes in their temples, so they decided to throw the corpses of the monks who ate the food of the gods into the middle well."

"They feel that it is a kind of happiness for the dead monks. It is also a kind of happiness to die because they eat the food of the gods. They can see the gods through the connection between the three wells."

"But before that, some people said that on the night when those monks died, they dreamed that the gods told him that they could scatter the cores of the two trees to other places, and use the water from the well in the middle to let them grow freely. "

"After one person proposed it, the others echoed it one after another. Except for those who had died, all of them said that they had dreamed of the same scene. They believed that the gods had manifested themselves and gave them the task."

"The monks who survived collected the cores left by the dead monks after eating the fruit, and planted the cores on a piece of land near the temple."

"After they tapped the well in the middle and watered it once, they didn't care about it anymore, just like their gods said, let it grow freely."

"After doing all this, they immediately threw the corpses of the dead monks into the well in the middle."

"When they woke up the next day, they found that the two trees next to the well were gone, but there were some very faint traces left on the ground where they had been."

"The tree next to the mouth of the well is gone, but the place where they planted the core has grown into a towering tree overnight, full of colorful fruits."

"After hearing the news, those monks were very happy, and told the whole town, and through the internal discussion of the temple, as well as the vague guidance given by the so-called gods, stipulated the blessing rule."

"From then on, the town no longer needs living sacrifices, and usually prays for blessings normally, but at a specified time every year, a blessing ceremony will be held. Through this choice, the gods will fulfill the wishes of individual people in the town."
