Chapter 227 They made a pilgrimage in the direction where she was
. For a moment, the entire gathering area was ablaze with fireworks, and the red light could be seen from far away.
The raging wind was blocked outside the gathering area by the pine and cypress trees, and inside the gathering area, the fire trees and copper flowers shone. The originally solidified ice and snow began to melt and turned into a source of water.
People who had been hungry for a long time came out to take the water back to drink.
They looked at the outside of the gathering area, which was still icy and snowy, and extremely cold, while the temperature inside the gathering area began to rise and the body became warm.
After experiencing such severe cold in person, they were moved to tears when they felt warmth again. Especially in the contrast between the two, they felt even happier!
They were full of gratitude, and they bowed down to the glowing pine, cypress, and plum trees.
"Tree God, thank you for your gift!"
"Thank you for the light and warmth you bring us!"
"Woo woo woo, without this warmth, I would have frozen to death tonight!"
"Tree God, you gave me my life!"
They didn't know how these trees began to glow and give off heat, bringing warmth and vitality to the people, so they thought it was the tree god's appearance.
Otherwise, who could explain who had such power to keep nine million people in such a large gathering area warm? If
this wasn't divine power, what else could it be?
Huang Ge and his teammates stopped under a huge plum tree and looked up.
The branches of ordinary plum trees are not very thick, but this plum tree is so huge that two or three people cannot hug it.
It has thousands of branches, which are full of bright plum blossoms. Each plum blossom is the size of a bowl and releases hot flames.
Such plum trees were absolutely rare before the end of the world, but now in this gathering area, one after another, they are everywhere in front of them!
The same is true for the pine trees and cypress trees. Each one is a giant tree. Pine and cypress are long-lived and can grow very large. Now, each of them
can only be hugged by eight or ten people. It is shocking at first sight,
not to mention that they use their branches to continuously release light and heat. No wonder people regard them as tree gods!
Trees can grow so huge
Looking at the people kneeling in front of it, Huang Ge had an indescribable feeling, and wanted to be one of them.
Suddenly, he remembered that he had seen a similar peach tree on the way from Haishi, but it seemed more magical, able to walk and run, and even release skills to block people who tried to spy on it.
He even had a strong intuition that these trees, most likely, were related to the beautiful woman living in the peach tree.
But, is this possible?
Looking at the huge trees, he had some self-doubt.
"I wonder where their family is now."
"Is it in this gathering area?"
Ever since they met General Qian, the army stationed in Lingjiang to isolate everyone.
Even though he was in the army as a Class B Psychic, he could not see the specific situation of Lingjiang River.
There were only the roar of artillery fire and a series of explosions. The artillery fire of various colors formed a gorgeous flame and a series of explosions.
Not long after, General Qian ordered to cross the river. He went to see that all the zombies in Lingjiang River, which was filled with zombies, were dead. The scene was really extremely shocking!
He estimated the strength of the Haishi military and it was impossible to kill these zombies. You know, there are tens of millions of these zombies.
Even if the artillery fire is unlimited and the formation is set up for crazy bombing, it will take several days to blow them all up.
Besides, these zombies are not dead. They can't just stay there and get beaten. They must fight back.
How can General Qian's troops cross the river unscathed?
In fact, when he looked at it, all the people lying down were zombies, not a single soldier.
But there were some details that made him pay special attention.
He saw some fallen leaves of plants, the shells left behind, and the parasitic buds...
He had an extremely absurd idea at the time. Could it be that the plants killed these zombies?
Thinking of the "plant warriors" that were widely circulated and repeatedly mentioned by people in the early days of the apocalypse, he sincerely felt that his idea might be right.
Now, in the gathering area, seeing the "miracles" brought by the plants again, it is not difficult to understand why people would kneel down to them!
It was these trees that pulled them back from the brink of death!
It was these trees that made them feel warm in the severe cold!
In addition to the trees, there are also large and colorful chrysanthemums, hyacinths, clematis, camellia... in full bloom. These chrysanthemums also release heat and fragrance, and are very brilliant.
If it were in the past, these flowers would have been taken home long ago.
But now, no one dares to touch them.
"Director Huang, what should we do now? Should we send this coal?"
A team member asked him. They are still used to calling him Director Huang.
They are the people who have always followed him. They used to be his employees and are now his team members.
"Send it to the people in our jurisdiction, the elderly and widows, single mothers, and orphans."
Huang Ge said.
The team member who asked the question nodded, looked at the fire trees, and said with a smile:
"Captain, now that we have these sacred trees in our gathering area, I'm afraid we don't need the coal in our hands anymore."
Huang Ge said: "Isn't this just right. Our coal can only be delivered to a few households, but these sacred trees illuminate thousands of households."
"They have saved so many families, so many lives, and brought hope to so many people. How can we compare?"
All the team members nodded in surprise.
Huang Ge looked around the team and didn't see his nephew who disappointed him. He couldn't help but said angrily:
"Huang Fang is hanging out with Li Zong again?!"
"He has a broken hand, but he still doesn't learn his lesson!"
Everyone didn't know what to say, and turned their heads around. Huang Changchang and Huang Fang were uncle and nephew, and they were outsiders after all.
Before Huang Ge could get angry, a figure came running over at high speed. It was none other than Huang Fang.
After he came over, he knelt down in front of Huang Ge without waiting for Huang Ge to scold him.
"Uncle, I was wrong, I was so wrong!"
"I shouldn't have disobeyed you and hung out with Li Zong, I shouldn't have trusted Lin Xiner, and I shouldn't have caused trouble for Miss Zhou!"
Huang Fang talked for a while, and when Huang Ge heard the word "Miss Zhou", his head exploded like thunder, and he grabbed his nephew's shoulders with both hands,
"What, you met Miss Zhou? How dare you cause trouble for her?!!!"
"You are tired of living, tired of living! No one can save you!"
Huang Fang kowtowed to Huang Ge, "Uncle, I was really wrong, I was blinded by greed, I dare not do it again, I will never dare again!"
"Save me, save me, from now on I will not have any disrespectful thoughts towards Miss Zhou!"
He was really scared, really scared!
Huang Ge stared at his nephew. After all, his face resembled his brother's. His brother left him as the only child.
"Where is Miss Zhou?"
he asked.
"Tomorrow you go to Beijing to apologize. If Miss Zhou doesn't forgive you, you will kneel and die in front of her house!"
Huang Fang nodded tremblingly and pointed in a direction.
Huang Ge looked in the direction his nephew pointed. The road he pointed to had plum trees, pines, cypresses, chrysanthemums, camellias...all heading in that direction as if on a pilgrimage.
That road was a bright road illuminated by fire.
His heart was suddenly shaken.
