Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

Any sane person would never plant a towering tree here.    

However, it did not mean that there were no trees here.    

In some of the more spacious squares, in the middle, there were still a few trees that could be planted.    

However, the trees that were planted would definitely not be the kind with very big crowns.    

It was rare.    

There were twelve trees here.    

They were very straight, and their crowns were sparse.    

The bark was also pitch black.    

However, there was a light that seemed to be smeared with a layer of oil.    

Originally, this place was not the only way to pass through. However, Xiao Yun happily turned around and walked over.    

He left the limestone road and stepped on the soil, giving off a soft and warm feeling.    

He did not know where this warmth came from.    

In any case, he had this kind of feeling.    

He reached out and patted the tree trunk.    

The roots were firm and solid, but the tree didn't budge at all.    

Xiao Yun asked without turning his head, "What tree is this?"    

"This... I heard it's a Mandara Tree."    

"Ah?"    

Xiao Yun blinked and said, "Why did you hear about it?"    

"This... is because these trees are too ancient. I heard that the old man transplanted them. It had been a thousand years in the Imperial Palace. I also heard that they were like this when they were transplanted here. A thousand years have passed. They've only grown by less than an inch. It's amazing. "    

"Are you sure it's a thousand years?"    

"That's for sure, the palace has a special record of them, so there naturally won't be any mistakes"    

"Oh, so it's like that, that's really quite a magical appearance"    

As he spoke, Xiao Yun took out a knife.    

Squatting down, he slashed at the tree.    

Xiao Yun's knife was the sharpest knife in the world.    

It was also the most smooth blade.    

But it was this blade that only cut into the bark, and could not cut in even a little bit.    

This caused Xiao Yun to be stunned.    

At the same time, it also frightened Qian Hu, who was beside him.    

Qian Hu's heart ached.    

It was unknown how many years this thing had been. In the eyes of the people of the North Wei, these twelve trees had always been like divine trees, protected and protected. Now that they were slashed like this, who wouldn't feel heartache?    

But what could he say? What did he dare to say again?    

He could only tremble on the side.    

Xiao Yun let out a surprised sound.    

Then, he immediately used the original energy. The saber became sharper and easily cut a hole in the tree trunk.    

He slashed up and down.    

He cut out a corner.    

He then took the corner and put it in front of his eyes to watch.    

Xiao Yun was stunned with just one look.    

This was the Great Royal Court of the Northern Wei, and it was winter in less than half a year.    

Summer was not cool either.    

The temperature difference between summer and winter was huge.    

As a result, the tree's growth cycle would be especially clear.    

In fact, it was warm in summer. The trees grew very quickly, and the veins on the tree trunk would loosen slightly. It also caused the tree trunk to look a little whiter and lighter. In winter, because it was too cold, the trees grew slowly, and the wood there was extremely dense. The density was indeed high, and the color would appear heavier. It was a little deeper.    

With such alternating brightness and darkness, it was the year ring.    

All the trees in the world could not be excluded.    

This was the law of the world itself, the law of nature.    

But this tree...    

There was no growth ring!    

At least it couldn't be seen with the naked eye.    

In other words, within a year, its growth would not grow much during the process of the change in temperature difference, so this interaction between the light and the dark was not clear either.    

Xiao Yun took a deep breath.    

Then he closed his eyes.    

After a moment of silence, he opened his eyes again.    

His eyes shone brightly.    

Just like the Fiery Golden Eyes.    

He could clearly see the patterns on the trees.    

At the same time, he was shocked once again.    

There was indeed a growth ring.    

It was just as he had thought.    

It was too thin.    

It was so thin that it was even thinner than a strand of hair.    

According to the width of the tree...    

How many years had it taken for it to grow so big?    

The key was, what kind of tree would grow so slowly?    

Impossible, and inconceivable.    

Regardless of whether it was the trees or the grass, they were actually not considered slow.    

A hundred years old man, ten years old.    

Ordinary trees could grow in ten years.    

At the sapling stage, it would also grow a lot in two to three years.    

Why?    

Because once it reached maturity, the time that it had the ability to reproduce would be too long. Whether it was natural disasters or animal bites, it should have been extinct long ago!    

Even those thousand-year-old ancient trees and ten-thousand-year-old ancient trees, in fact, could already reproduce after growing for a few years.    

And this kind of tree in front of them was truly slow!    

Xiao Yun also immediately understood why he noticed them and even wanted to take a closer look.    

It was because this thing... was incompatible with all of this!    

It was as if it was incompatible with the entire world.    

It was as if Xiao Yun was in a normal world.    

These trees should be in a different world, either primitive or future. Anyway, they had completely different styles.    

It was just like when Xiao Yun first saw Yunshan in his previous life.    

He was stunned.    

He was shocked.    

He was so touched that he wanted to cry!    

The twelve trees were the same.    

Xiao Yun took a deep breath.    

He calmed himself down.    

Then he turned to the two of them and said, "Don't look at how I cut it, but for trees... It's not a serious injury. As the saying goes, it's better to hurt flesh than skin. The bark is more important than the trunk, so as long as I don't destroy this circle... Trees can always live... Yes, their vitality is really very high."    

The drunkard shook his head and said," Yeah, trees can still live with injuries, but it will affect their lifespan "    

"Why do you say so?"    

Xiao Yun frowned.    

This was because in the previous world, when technology was so advanced, people were still discussing this matter. There was no way to come to a conclusion.    

He thought that drunkards could give him a clear answer.    

However, the drunkard shook his head and said: "I don't know why, but I have this feeling. Ever since my lifespan increased, this is the feeling"    

" Hm? Can you tell me more about it?"    

The drunkard scratched his head and said," How should I put it... Life is not like the copper in a bag. There is a fixed number, and it will be used at our expense. It reduces the amount, and this reduces the amount that can be checked. The remaining number is limited, we have a feeling... It can also be checked. Just like life, I didn't know that I had an even longer lifespan at that time. After all, there wouldn't be a row of numbers on my head, and it said how many more years I could live. When I lived to 80 years old, I felt that my body seemed to be a little stronger than an ordinary 80 year old. I can even become stronger..."    

The drunkard suddenly smiled bitterly and continued, "Then it was 90 years old. I found out that not only did I not die, but I also found out that I did not die. Instead, I seemed to have become a little younger, and then I became 100 years old. From that moment on, I realized that the way the people around me looked at me had changed... When I reached 110 years old, there were already people who started to call me the Old God. But behind my back, there were even more people who called me the Old Devil... Hehe, in any case, I don't seem to be anyone else. Hehe... "    

Sighing, the drunkard said, "When I live to 150 years old, I suddenly realized that I have a very long lifespan. My views on some things have also changed. It was like... enlightened. Then I learned a lot of things that I didn't even know before. Naturally, I had a wonderful feeling. For example, trees. When I saw trees get injured, I realized... That tree could have lived for a thousand years, but because of a lightning strike... Although it managed to survive, it could only live for five hundred years. But if it was struck by lightning again in five hundred years... And if it survived, it would be reborn from the flames. It would extend its lifespan by ten thousand years! I don't know where this feeling came from. I don't know, and I don't want to delve too deeply into it. In any case, it came out of my head naturally. It was like something had gone wrong with my brain, but after that, there were a lot of things... My feelings have been verified. "
