A giant tree with a diameter of more than ten meters, if you look up at the huge crown for a little longer, you will feel dizzy involuntarily.

The thick tree roots protruding from the ground near the bottom of the trunk are like sleeping giant pythons.

The fallen leaves piled at the bottom of the trunk are some withered yellow and some tender green, but they are all very complete. From a distance, you can even see the veins on the leaves.

The perception released by Raymond was like a breeze blowing across the area of ​​thousands of meters. After a moment, he was sure that only the giant tree in front of him was the largest, and there were no roots of other trees around its lush roots rooted in the ground, as if it had absolute dominance in this area.

Raymond, who had made a light exclamation when he saw this tree before, felt more and more familiar the more he looked at it.

Although he could conclude that he had never seen such a giant tree, the inexplicable sense of familiarity could not be dispelled.

Looking up at the umbrella-shaped tree canopy that is 100 meters high, if you observe carefully among the lush branches, you can vaguely see the ripe or about to ripen round fruits hidden under the leaves.

The inexplicable sense of familiarity made Raymond stop moving forward. He stood quietly in front of the giant tree and fell into deep thought.

Just a moment later, the iron-backed bird that followed him into the lychee forest with fear suddenly widened its eyes, opened its sharp beak but did not dare to make any sound, held its breath, slowly lowered its body and crawled on the ground, and covered its head with its huge wings, trembling like a frightened ostrich.

Sand, sand, sand...

The breeze that shuttled through the shade of the trees moved the fallen leaves piled at the bottom of the tree trunks, and the pile of fallen leaves that had been stable before collapsed. And as the rustling sound gradually increased, a strange sound gradually appeared.

"Chi, chirp... chirp..."

The tender and clear sound became louder and louder, much like the first sharp cry of a chick that had just broken out of its shell.

Raymond stood still in the same place. However, as the sound was produced, his unfocused pupils gradually regained their spirit, but when he saw the fallen leaves clearly, they suddenly shrank!

The palm-sized yellow leaves gradually separated from the fallen leaves and scattered all over the ground, while the veins on the tender green leaves gradually stretched and extended. They became their slender and tender limbs.

"Chi, chirp... chirp..."

The eyes on the child-like faces on these tender green leaves were as clear as babies, with the reflection of Raymond and the trembling iron-backed bird crawling behind him.

In an instant, Raymond suddenly realized it. He looked up at the fruits hidden in the tree canopy. After narrowing the distance of vision, he finally saw the face on the fruit that looked like a sleeping child!

Thinking of the name mentioned by the big tree before, Raymond took a deep breath and tentatively spoke. "Mo Xier?"

As Raymond said the name in ancient Toris language, the existence of the giant tree that seemed to be just an ordinary tree began to change.

The originally still trunk trembled slightly. And the crown at the top began to sway slowly. Facing Raymond's trunk full of cracked bark. The slowly creeping and piled bark gradually formed a charming female face, and the straight nose had perfect lines like carved out!

At this time, the tender green leaves that stood out from the pile of dead leaves also held hands with each other. Countless circles formed under the thick trunk, while making chirping sounds. The slender legs were constantly raised and fell, making rustling sounds.

"Young wizard, what are you doing here..."

The voice was a bit lazy and had a heavy nasal sound, as if it had not woken up yet, but the giant tree did not deny Raymond's previous title, making him understand that this was Mo Xier.

"I'm looking for a wizard named Mi Xuer, who should live in the depths of the Liguo Forest!"

"Mi Xuer? Is it the old man with a somewhat eccentric personality... I haven't seen him come to ask for fruit for a long time..."

A hint of worry appeared on her charming face, and her eyes narrowed as if she was thinking, but after a moment, Mo Xier smiled. "Hehe... No wizard has entered here for a long time, can you give me some magic stones?"

The somewhat abrupt request made Raymond stunned for a moment, but then he silently took out a dozen magic stones and threw them over.

The slender branches that suddenly hung down from the treetops dozens of meters above his head grabbed these magic stones one by one like a dexterous palm, and then sent them into the mouth on the trunk.

The sound of chewing came faintly from the trunk, and the leaves around the bottom of the trunk were dancing around the giant tree at a faster speed.

Patiently waiting for Mo Xier to eat all the magic stones, the leaves holding hands and circling around mostly turned their curious eyes to Raymond, and the curious expressions like children made him smile.

But before he could ask again, the branches that had rolled up the magic stones before returned to the tree canopy and dropped down again, bringing the ripe fruits rolled up at the end of the branches to Raymond.

"I miss the taste of magic stones... Although these fruits are not as precious as magic stones, the taste should satisfy you..."

Mo Xier's slightly apologetic tone made Raymond smile. However, after the faces on the fruits that were presented to him gradually became more vivid, he took half a step back with lingering fear and shook his head. . "Mo Xi'er, I once saw such a fruit in the Warcraft Forest on the west coast many years ago..."

The charming face on the tree trunk became surprised, and under questioning, Raymond told what happened that year. "I still deeply remember the pleading and screams made by the red fruit that I chewed up at that time. Looking back now, it is a bit creepy. Although it is not related to eating some high-level magical beasts, it is like a child. I can’t thank you enough for the fruit…”

The slightly weird laughter of "Hohoho" made the entire giant tree tremble violently. Various leaves that fell from the tree crown covered the ground in a moment.

While Mo Xier laughed, the ripe fruits she sent to Raymond began to struggle among the branches wrapped around their bodies as if they were waking up, and various sounds suddenly erupted. .

"Grandma! Grandma! Let me out..."

"Don't eat me...don't eat me..."

"Grandma is bad...Grandma is bad..."

These fruits, which spoke clearly and had different faces but were extremely real, once again reminded Raymond of the scene when he swallowed the red fruit. Raymond felt a little hairy in his heart and instinctively wanted to stay away. These fruits!

"Don't worry, these are just pranks done out of boredom...I think the big tree you saw must be the old Moses of my tribe..."

Seeing this, Mo Xier couldn't help but laugh. She stopped smiling and quickly began to explain. It was during her explanation that Raymond finally understood the truth.

Mo Xi'er, who belongs to the 'Whisperer' tribe, is the oldest tree on the surface plane, so she is quite familiar with these fun-loving members of the tribe.

"Old Moses should be the only one living on the west coast. His favorite thing is to use this method to scare people... but his courage is quite small. As long as he feels that the target's strength exceeds his, he will stay away. If he escapes, he will never let the wizards notice his trace..."

After demonstrating the different behaviors and reactions of these fruits in the interview, Mo Xier finally taught Raymond a method. If he encounters a trick similar to what old Moses did again, he only needs to remove the fruit before eating it. Cut off the connection between the fruit and its body, and then this baby-like fruit will return to normal, and it will never scream like that when it is chewed!

Raymond, who tried to seal these fruits, couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the ordinary fruits. The shadows left in his memory many years ago were completely eliminated today, but for the people he met on the west coast, Old Moses felt deep resentment in his heart...

ps:

Uh~ This issue of 'Hongguoguo' has been explained. In fact, it was originally planned to be dealt with in the land of high towers, but many confused and angry people began to appear in the book review area, so I decided to resolve this foreshadowing first. Drop it~
