Chapter 217
While Mu Yuncheng was stunned, the changes in the miniature potted plants did not stop.
He felt that the flowerpot in his hand was getting heavier and heavier, and the shrunken trunk of the old tree gradually grew bigger and taller. Finally, Mu Yuncheng could no longer hold it and had to put the flowerpot on the ground.
The old tree in the flowerpot is still growing bigger.
The fragile flowerpot was propped open, and the roots of the old tree dug into the soil. The trunk was still growing. The shaking of the ground made Mu Yuncheng unable to stand firmly, and he could only step back.
When he accidentally touched Mu Bao who was sitting in a floating wheelchair, he quickly picked him up and looked up at the tree that was still growing taller and bigger.
I don’t know how long it took, but all the changes in the old tree finally stopped.
Suddenly, a towering tree appeared on the plain, with lush leaves growing all over its branches, dotted with snow-white flowers.
A gentle breeze blew by, and petals from the trees fluttered down like a rain of petals, and the rich fragrance of flowers filled the entire plain.
The cubs who flew across the river on flying saucers were stunned by the scene in front of them. Such a beautiful and moving scenery was probably unforgettable for anyone who saw it.
Mu Yuncheng and his son were also stunned. As far as they could remember, they had never seen the ancestor bloom or grow such lush new leaves.
Likewise, the passionate and excited emotions emanating from the ancestor were something they had never felt before.
What happened to our ancestor?
In their confusion, the old voice sounded in their ears again, "Earth Spirit...Earth Spirit!"
The excited and choked voice seemed to contain thousands of words, but in the end it only turned into two sighs, but these sighs clearly carried an incomparable sense of happiness and satisfaction.
I have no regrets in this life!
Although Lao Shu didn't say anything, everyone present could understand what he meant.
When Mu Yuncheng received this information, he came back to his senses. He suddenly realized something and his eyes turned red.
He didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly put Mu Bao back into the floating wheelchair, then staggered towards the old tree.
"Ancestor!"
Su Ci stood under the tree. He looked up at the flowers all over the tree, then looked at Mu Yuncheng's back as he ran towards the old tree.
As he ran, the flowers dotted among the leaves began to wither and die, and the withering speed was so fast that even the leaves were falling down.
Mu Yuncheng almost rolled and crawled to the tree, lay on the trunk and cried loudly.
Although he knew that the ancestor's time was approaching, he never thought that this day would come so soon and so suddenly. He also didn't understand why the ancestor had to exhaust all his vitality to bloom again in the end.
This last bloom, so beautiful and brilliant, was more like a last hurrah, extinguishing all his vitality.
Mu Yuncheng didn't understand, and he didn't understand the meaning of the old ancestor's last two sighs.
His sadness could not prevent the old tree from losing its life.
At the end of his life, Yu Muqing had no regrets as he was able to return to his homeland and meet the spirit of the earth.
No matter how sadly Mu Yuncheng cried, the old tree still withered. At the last moment, it bloomed for the last time in its life and offered its fruit to the spirit of the earth.
After the lush green leaves faded, the only fruit on the tree fell to the ground, right in front of Su Ci, and he reached out to catch it.
The fruit is black and has a hard shell. It probably doesn't taste good, but it is indeed a gift given to him by the old tree in its dying moments.
Although the old tree has withered, the joy and excitement left in the fruit have lingered for a long time.
Su Ci couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, he felt his hand being held.
He turned his head and saw that A Yan had come to his side at some point and was looking at him with a little worry.
Su Ci shook his head.
He put the black fruit in his hand into the spirit storage bag, then walked towards the tree trunk, and A Yan followed him quietly.
The cubs have fallen from mid-air.
Everything that happened before their eyes was so incredible. They didn't understand why this big tree that suddenly appeared would wither so quickly after blooming.
But they could feel the sadness.
Langze carried Zhengxing on his back and felt that his little hands holding his shoulders tightened a little. He looked at Lu Jiao and Xue Wei beside him and saw that their eyes were already red.
He scratched his hair and looked away.
The strange child with green hair also directed the hovering wheelchair towards the tree trunk after his father put him down. However, perhaps because he was too concerned, he fell off the wheelchair halfway.
His legs were stretched straight out, and he couldn't bend them after falling off the wheelchair, let alone get up on his own. He kept struggling on the ground.
Langze quickly ran towards him, put Zhengxing down, then reached out and grabbed the back of the child's collar and lifted him up.
"Are you okay?"
Mu Bao was anxious and sad, and was crying sadly when he was suddenly lifted up from the ground in mid-air. He was so frightened that he forgot to cry and stared at the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him with his green eyes wide open.
The boy was much taller and stronger than him, and had more strength than him. He could lift him up with one hand, and looked like he was doing it with ease.
The child curled up with his legs straight, and twitched uncontrollably because he was crying so hard. He looked pitiful.
Although Zheng Xing couldn't see, his mental power allowed him to see more information than an ordinary person. Noticing the child's unstable mental state, he hesitated for a moment and reached out to pull Langze's clothes.
Langze was looking at Mubao's hair curiously. He found that the child's hair was turning into thin vines, and tiny leaves were growing out.
Only after being reminded by Zheng Xing did he come to his senses and put Mu Bao back on the floating wheelchair.
After Mu Bao fell to the ground, the hover wheelchair kept spinning in place and even sounded an alarm. It finally stopped after he sat back down.
Mu Yuncheng, who was immersed in grief over there, finally noticed the situation here and hurried over to check it out.
The ancestor has passed away, and nothing can happen to his son again!
Seeing Mu Bao start to cry again after his father came back, Langze scratched his head, thought of something, and quickly took out a Star Chain Spirit Fruit from the spirit storage bag.
"Do you want to eat it?" He said, and stuffed the fruit into the child's hand without saying anything.
Mu Bao's sad mood was interrupted again.
He held the Star Chain Fruit in his arms, then looked at the wolf-eared boy who was looking at him with a smile. Finally, he suppressed his sadness and said in a tearful voice, "Thank you..."
As he finished speaking, the thin vine hair on his head that kept growing leaves finally stopped growing.
However, Mu Bao, who lowered his head, inadvertently saw his hair. He panicked and looked up, only to see the wolf-eared boy just looking at him curiously.
There was no disgust or malice in his eyes; his green eyes were clear and kind, and the black-haired little boy who was hiding behind him with half of his head sticking out had an even calmer expression on his face.
Mu Bao, who was originally feeling panicked and worried that he would be disliked, calmed down for a moment.
He blinked and looked at the two strange children in front of him, as well as the cubs behind them who were also gathering towards him. He was about to speak, but suddenly he felt something in his heart and looked towards the old tree again.
Mu Bao was young after all, and his feelings for the ancestor were not as deep as his father's. After being interrupted by Langze and the others, he was no longer as sad.
He looked at the withered old tree and the uncle in the gray-blue uniform who made him feel very friendly at first sight.
Mu Bao had a feeling that the "Earth Spirit" that his ancestor had just called out was actually calling him.
Under Mu Bao's gaze, he saw the uncle raise one hand. The hand was thin and white, and seemed to have no strength. He placed it so lightly on the trunk of the ancestor's tree.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light burst out from the palm of his hand.
Mu Bao couldn't help but close his eyes, but Mu Yuncheng, who was protecting him, opened his eyes wide and looked over there, feeling his heart beating faster.
This light... this is...
A dead tree comes back to life with spring.
Su Ci once again performed this magic. Compared with the last time, he seemed more at ease as his strength had recovered a lot.
However, what he faced this time was no longer an ordinary Star Chain Fruit Vine, but an old tree that had grown for more than ten thousand years and had become a spirit.
Yes, with just one glance, Su Ci saw through the condition of the old tree.
And he was sure that this old tree came from Earth - it was not the offspring of plants that were brought to the interstellar space by humans and reproduced, but a real plant from Earth.
Although Su Ci had never seen it, after all, he had been sleeping for a hundred thousand years before humans escaped from Earth.
Su Ci naturally could not stand by and watch such an ancient tree die. Whether out of compassion or for the future development of the Earth, he would take action.
Fortunately, although the ancient tree has withered, its remaining huge body has not completely died.
As the spirit of the earth continued to inject energy representing vitality, by the time Su Ci withdrew his hand and the light golden light completely dissipated, the withered ancient tree had undergone obvious changes.
I saw a hint of green appearing on the dry bark.
At the same time, a faint shadow slowly appeared beside Su Ci and A Yan.
He was an old man with white beard and white eyebrows, wearing a plain robe. Although he looked very old, his posture was still upright, and he looked like a Taoist, kind and amiable person.
He opened his eyes blankly, and after a moment of stunned silence, he realized what had just happened.
Although he had never seen the Spirit of the Earth, the legend about the Spirit of the Earth had always been circulated among the Mu Clan. Moreover, the moment he saw Su Ci, Mu Qing knew that he was absolutely right, this young man was definitely him!
He ignored Mu Yuncheng who was running towards him with the child in his arms. Instead, under the surprised gazes of the father and son, he slightly straightened his robe and knelt down respectfully.
"Earth Spirit, please accept Mu Qing's greeting!"
However, just as his knees were about to touch the ground, he was lifted up by a force.
Then he saw the god who had just saved him with his magic. He put his hands in his trouser pockets, yawned nonchalantly, and said, "Go and recover quickly. Come and help me when you're ready."
Then he turned around and walked away lazily.
The platinum-haired young man who was accompanying him smiled at him and followed the Lord God's footsteps and left.
Mu Qing stared at their backs for a long time.
"Grandfather..." Mu Yuncheng beside him spoke hesitantly, but soon fell silent because -
"The Earth Spirit just spoke to me..." the old man murmured, "and blessed me..."
"Woo woo woo, He also asked me to do things for Him in the future..."
“Wow, wow, wow… so happy… wow, wow… so happy!”
Mu Yuncheng: “…”
