Chapter 383: Changes in this world, dead trees come back to life

The big fish, which was more than two feet long, circled around the strange flowers and poked its head out of the water. Its huge eyes stared at them coldly, as if warning them.

"A spirit?"

Brother Liu was also shocked.

Whether it is the flower or the fish, they both seem a little abnormal in this cold winter with heavy snow and frozen rivers.

I have never heard of a normal flower that would cause the water around it to form a small vortex, or even emit fluorescence! Only Wei Chuanming remained calm.

After all, he was a master before, so he had some understanding of this world and even various strange things.

It's not as shocking as ordinary people.

"That flower is probably what is called a rare treasure of heaven and earth."

Wei Chuanming stroked his chin and said with some surprise.

Rare treasures from heaven and earth are no secret to those who are truly powerful, and the Xia Dynasty itself had them.

The reputation of Liuyun Zhuiyue Clothes is very great! There are always some strange things that stand out a little when all spirits are not obvious, and they are given the name of rare treasures.

"So this fish is the spirit that guards the rare treasures of heaven and earth?"

Mo Feng asked quickly.

Although he has never seen a fairy flying, he has seen pigs running!

This is what is told in vernacular novels and storytellers’ stories.

What kind of companion creature, what kind of guardian beast, what kind of mountain monster... There is nothing that cannot be made up as long as you can think of it.

After all, the traces left by the immortals in this world have not been completely wiped out, and some of them are still circulating.

"It should be."

Wei Chuanming nodded, very excited.

A rare treasure from heaven and earth! It is a real treasure. If an ordinary person can get it, not to mention a lifetime of wealth and glory, it will take ten lifetimes to spend it all.

The prerequisite is to be able to get it alive.

Even for a master, the rare treasures of heaven and earth are mostly things that can only be viewed from afar and not played with, so their preciousness is beyond doubt.

This river water looks ordinary, but it can grow rare treasures from heaven and earth, and they bumped into it. This is a gift from heaven! There is a saying: If you don't take what heaven gives, you will suffer the consequences!

Wei Chuanming rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight with Yu Gan.

But Mo Feng held him back.

"Can we beat this fish?"

Mo Feng asked in a low voice.

Wei Chuanming, who was full of excitement, froze immediately.

This fish is really big.

More than two meters.

The whole body is mud yellow with some golden spots. It is covered with scales with cross-shaped patterns on the scales.

There was a strange light in its eyeballs, which were as big as an adult's fist. The strong tail could create huge waves with a casual swing in the river.

This thing doesn't seem like something that an ordinary person can get.

If it appeared in a more ignorant place, it is possible that it would be directly named a "dragon". No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a fish that is powerless.

Wei Chuanming: “.”

When the initial joy gradually disappeared, he finally remembered that he was no longer a master.

If I were a master, I would just give you a slap and no matter what kind of fish you are, you would die.

But now he is just an ordinary person.

Ordinary people really can't catch this big fish.

Wei Chuanming turned his head to look at the iron tool in his hand. It was a shovel. He had never heard of anyone being able to catch fish with this thing, let alone a fish more than two meters long.

If you are accidentally swept into the water, you may die without knowing how.

It only took Wei Chuanming one sentence to go from excited to depressed.

Without power, even if opportunities appear before you, you can only sigh and lament helplessly.

How sad!

"I can't do it."

Wei Chuanming said it quite straightforwardly.

"Then can we resell the information?"

Brother Liu's mind works very fast.

"Gurgle~"

There was a rumbling sound like thunder coming from Mo Feng's stomach.

That's hungry.

After eating last night and walking such a long way today, I had a fight with someone and vomited for most of the day, so my stomach is already empty.

It is the age when one is growing up, and no matter how hard one tries, one cannot endure an empty stomach.

"In this icy weather, who can I sell this information to? Even if the other party really believes it, how long will it take to travel back and forth? I'm afraid I'll starve to death by then. If I'm unlucky enough, if the other party doesn't want to leak the news, I can't say whether I can survive."

Wei Chuanming immediately shook his head.

I would rather give up this rare treasure than take that risk.

The most helpless thing for ordinary people is that most of the time, they cannot control their own destiny and it all depends on the moods of others.

If you accidentally get into trouble, you may die without knowing how you died.

Wei Chuanming, who was once a master, now has a deep understanding of this.

There is no need for persecution from others. When a major disaster occurs, the tragedy of cannibalism will happen right before our eyes.

This is the bloody truth.

What ordinary people need is not only opportunities, but also the ability to deal with risks when opportunities come.

Sadly, they certainly don’t have that now.

There is also no way to contact a trustworthy strong person to come and take this rare treasure from heaven and earth, and then slip some benefits to them through gaps in their fingers.

"Neither this nor that will work. How about we go get something to eat from this fish?"

Mo Feng, who was extremely hungry, suddenly had an idea, "Isn't it said that wild monsters also have intelligence? It should be able to understand what we mean, right?"

Wei Chuanming: “?”

Brother Liu: “?”

This statement is really stupid.

It is indeed a bit too childish.

Finding a fish to eat? People over ten years old probably wouldn't even dream of such a thing.

The two of them didn't say anything, so Mo Feng assumed that they had no objection.

He boldly took a few steps forward and stopped about three meters away from the real river bank.

Then he squatted down, grabbed a handful of snow from the ground with his slender yet calloused hands, lowered his head, pretended to take a few bites of the snow in his hands, then turned around and took a few steps back and forth towards where he came from.

Then he turned back and looked at the big fish that was still staring at them.

This performance cannot be said to be lifelike, but at least it is lifelike.

Big Fish should be able to understand, right? Mo Feng was unsure.

But he was really hungry.

When people are extremely hungry, they will do anything, including but not limited to trying to communicate with a fish.

"Give us something to eat! If you give us something to eat, we won't fight with you for the flower!"

After turning around, Mo Feng shouted at the big fish that was still staring at them with great vigilance.

"That's enough."

Wei Chuanming covered his face with his hands, wondering how he could have met such a silly boy.

Negotiating with a fish?

How many dishes does it take to drink like this?

Mo Feng still refused to give up. He demonstrated it again with a pout, then stood there and said with great dissatisfaction: "Give us something to eat, and we will keep the flower a secret for you. If you don't give it to us, I will throw stones at you!"

"Mo Feng, let's go find something to eat somewhere else."

Even Brother Liu couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

However, it was unexpected.

This time, the big fish sank into the river.

After just a moment, the waves rose up!

An unlucky fish, which was as long as half a normal person's arm, was thrown onto the dry shore and landed in front of them.

“I’ll go!”

Wei Chuanming was startled and his eyes widened.

As a former master, what strange things has he not seen?

He had never seen this before! No, can you really ask a fish for food?! No one has ever done this before!

"Wow!"

Mo Feng roared with surprise, and quickly hugged the fish that was thrown onto the shore in his arms. He let the cold water splash on his body, but he felt comfortable all over, without any chill.

Happiness is so simple.

For example, if you ask for fish to eat, you will be given fish.

"There are three of us here. Two more. Brother Fish, Sister Fish, please be kind and give us two more!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Mo Feng, who was holding the fish, was very excited. The corners of his mouth seemed to be raised to the sky. Then he tried to free up one hand and pointed at Wei Chuanming and Brother Liu on both sides, and then pointed at the fish in his arms.

The meaning is very simple, one fish for three people is not enough!

The big fish soon sank again.

Soon, the water surface began to churn again!

Two more unlucky fish were thrown ashore.

“Yeah!”

Mo Feng jumped up excitedly. This time he really had no shortage of food.

He was not in a hurry to pick up the fish, but first bent down and bowed to the big fish, and then happily grabbed the fish that was knocked unconscious by the big fish.

"Let's go, let's grill or stew fish!"

"There are only three fish in total. We should be more frugal."

Brother Liu felt hungry before he was full, so he thought he should leave some food in advance, as it would be gone after he finished eating.

Unexpectedly, Mo Feng shook his head repeatedly, "What are you afraid of? As long as it's still here, we can come here every day to get it! I only promised to keep it a secret, and I didn't say I only want one fish."

"Ah, this?"

For a moment, both of them were stunned.

Good fellow, you bully fish and they won't listen to reason with you. You want to collect protection money every day, right? Don't say it, don't say it.

That makes sense! It seems they have no shortage of food this winter.

"The main problem is actually food."

In the Gu family courtyard, Shang's face did not look good, and there were bloodshot in his eyes.

He had hardly a moment of leisure this winter.

If Gu Dan hadn't helped him take care of his body, it's hard to say whether he could survive this winter.

"The Xia Dynasty was not short of food. The real problem was how to transport the food to the right place."

Shang rubbed his eyebrows, feeling helpless.

During an earthquake, we don’t need to worry about the loss of life or property.

The real priority is disaster relief.

But many roads were damaged and heavy snow fell from the sky.

It is extremely difficult to provide disaster relief during this period of time.

No matter how prosperous the Xia Dynasty was, it was only compared with other countries.

It is really impossible to control every place with ease, let alone give an order and have the message be received immediately in places thousands of miles away.

This limitation is not a problem they can solve now.

The timing was not right, the geographical location was limited, and even the word "harmony among people" was badly damaged and was no longer as good as before.

Even the wealthy Xia Dynasty had a hard time this winter.

"Now there is news coming from all over the country. The places where the court's personnel can go can still be settled, but the places where they cannot go can only be left to fend for themselves."

Shang said this quite bluntly.

Do your best and leave the rest to fate.

This is a problem that any dynasty has to face.

No matter how hard you try, there will always be things that you cannot reach, and at that time, you will truly be powerless.

Judging from the news received by Shang, the situation in Daqi, Dai Viet, Dayong, Daqing and other countries was not much better.

No, no, no, it’s not getting any better.

At least the Xia Dynasty immediately picked itself up, arranging personnel for rescue and disaster relief, and never stopped.

In the other countries that could still be contacted, the tragedy of cannibalism happened from time to time - from time to time! For this reason, they even asked the Xia Dynasty for help.

But, no.

Shang did not agree, and he had already asked Gu Dan's opinion, but Gu Dan also disagreed.

Both of them hold the same opinion, and Emperor Qizhi certainly would not jump out to disagree.

The Xia Dynasty was already struggling to take care of itself, so it wouldn't try to brag at this time.

Their own family hasn't even been settled yet, but they're going to other people's homes to provide disaster relief? Do you really think that all the people in the Xia Dynasty were Mohists?

Even if he was a Mohist, when faced with a disaster he would follow the principle of proximity. It was reasonable and logical that Shang did nothing wrong.

Of course, it did not mean that no assistance was given at all. After all, the envoys of several countries knelt on the ground and cried and begged for mercy from the Xia Dynasty.

The Xia Dynasty has extra grain, so you can send people to receive it. It is impossible for us to send people to deliver it to you.

Now all the policies of the Xia Dynasty are prepared for post-disaster reconstruction. This is an absolute will, and whoever disobeys it will die.

After saying some bad things, Shang's expression finally eased a little, and he said, "Fortunately, winter will soon be over. It won't be that difficult to treat the people who can hold on until this time."

This is truly a piece of good news among countless bad news.

Because those who couldn't make it died.

Gu Dan nodded gently and said, "It's pretty good."

He hasn't had any free time these days.

He travels around every day, healing the people affected by disasters.

There was never a moment's rest.

Now, those people who had suffered hardships and been seriously injured and suddenly recovered began to say that the Xia Dynasty was blessed by gods.

And it's not just one or two people who say this; countless people who have experienced it personally are extremely certain of it.

Although they had never even seen the face of the immortal, they didn't even know his name.

But the suddenly healed body doesn't lie.

It also served as a sedative for the people of the Xia Dynasty, and even to a large extent stopped the most terrible public opinion link about the injured after the disaster.

This made many people firmly believe that even if the Xia Dynasty encountered disasters, it would still be protected by the gods.

With these two approaches, although the Xia Dynasty suffered serious damage, it was not a problem for it to survive the winter.

"Go back and rest. You've done a good job. Take a good rest and don't tire yourself out."

A faint vitality entered Shang's body, and Gu Dan said affirmatively: "We have been busy until now, and there is no time to lose. You must take care of your body."

"yes."

Shang nodded, said nothing more, and left the Gu family courtyard with his tired body.

Gu Dan's fingers tapped lightly on the stone table. His eyes, clear yet like a deep pool, seemed to reveal what he was thinking about.

Not long after, Gu Dan stood up.

He looked at the big tree not far from the stone table that should have been completely ruined and dead.

The willow tree, which should have been completely lifeless but seemed dead in his perception, had a hint of vitality, only a tiny bit of green the size of a human little finger clearly visible.

A subtle spiritual light lingers on it.

A dead tree has spring back.

A natural gift.

“Even a dead tree is like this when spring comes. Will the world be like this too?”

Gu Dan vaguely grasped the main points.
