Chapter 89: The thousand-year-old tree complains

(I found A early.,Wrote the following words to Zhizhi:Today's A sign,Can't help but be happy; thank you, friends.,Code word afterburner (this is the first time to add text that has nothing to do with the content before the chapter))

Mai Ke watched the clouded leopard and its spouse, young son, and other birds and beasts' wives and children living in harmony, a harmonious atmosphere, intimate with each other, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten.

Although he knew that it was because of God's conservatism to keep them away from the pollution and consequences of sin, that they were able to maintain this friendly relationship, not because they themselves were morally superior to man.

But he can at least deduce that if humanity finally solves the problem of sin, everyone will do God's will, everyone will live in harmony, and people will be willing to sacrifice themselves for each other. What a prospect it would be if such love-based relationships became the norm.

At this time, Mai Ke had already seen that Da Niu and the others had appeared below, reaching the edge of the field. Since the field is surrounded by a river, at the end of the passage is a bridge that happens to cross over the river.

Seeing the flowers everywhere and the endless wilderness, everyone was shocked. Zeng Yuzhen, the only one who had been here, was even more surprised.

The last time he came, it was about this season, and all he saw was a wilderness. At that time, it felt very vast, but it was far from the scale it is now. Not only is it endless, but it seems to be more than ten times as wide as before.

Everyone was looking, but Sven was attentive and looked back at the avenue they had taken. To his surprise, the passage that had just been there for everyone to cross the river was gone. This strengthened the fact that Mai Ke and the others he had realized were extraordinary.

At this moment, he was extremely determined: Mai Ke is a man of God, and what they do is acceptable to God. The happiest thing is that I am one of them.

At this time, Mai Ke had already walked down the slope from the top of the mountain and greeted everyone. Seeing that everyone was eager to ask questions, even Da Niu, who usually rarely used his brain, frowned and looked like a pile of questions, Mai Ke simply turned passive into active, and without waiting for everyone to ask, he simply informed everyone of what happened during this time.

Only then did everyone know that so many changes had taken place in such a short period of time, and only then did they know why a great avenue appeared out of thin air. Especially when I heard that Mai Ke's "spirit moved" and ordered them to come in, it was issued from a distance of two kilometers, and there was no sound at all, and they all felt wonderful.

Only Hong Xiuquan and Sven are very sure in their hearts that this is a special ability given by God. With man it is impossible, with God all things are possible.

The reason why each of them can hear it clearly is because this kind of instruction issued by the "spirit and rhino movement" directly reaches the perception of the heart, and does not have to be transmitted through the air, received by the ear, and organized and transformed by the hearing system before it can reach the depth of the heart.

"I don't know exactly how wonderful this 'Spirit Rhino Movement' is, and I will gradually understand it in the future. In short, we have God's help, and everyone is convinced of that. Next, let's conduct a survey of this field, our permanent base in the future, and at the same time confirm the address of our functional organization. ”

After Mai Ke finished speaking, he didn't wait for everyone's reaction, and took the lead and walked forward.

Walking about three or four feet away, Mai Ke suddenly remembered that the slope was full of fruit trees. Although he didn't know what kind of them were, Zeng Yuzhen might know it very well. Because the people outside must have planted similar fruit trees.

So he called everyone to stop for a moment, and asked everyone to turn their faces and face the direction of the top of the mountain and say, "Look at the fruit trees all over the mountain, do you know what kind of fruit trees they are?"

The knowledgeable people in this group are Zeng Yuzhen and Fu Changlong. Fu Changlong first became a rich landowner and never touched these fruit trees, and later became addicted to smoking, and had no time to take care of the different types of fruit trees. So the only one who really knows how to do it is Zeng Lao.

Lao Zeng took a few steps forward, and after a cursory glance at this fruit tree, he knew that the planting and management techniques of these fruit trees were extraordinary. Although he was the leader of the charcoal burners, his basic way of self-cultivation was agriculture, so he was familiar with these fruit trees.

I saw that this gentle slope was about 600 meters from top to bottom, and all kinds of fruit trees were divided into three levels in an orderly manner. Lao Zeng knew very well that although fruit trees are not as strict as food crops, they are also very particular about ventilation, lighting, moisture, topography and other conditions. If the required conditions are not met, the yield will be reduced at least and the fruit trees will die.

Now Lao Zeng is giving lectures to these illiterate peasants. The highest level, which stretches for 100 meters from the foot of the cliff at the top of the mountain, is the dried fruit belt. Walnuts, chestnuts, and hazelnuts are planted in this area.

"What kind of fruit tree is this, why don't I know it?"

Teacher Zeng, who was talking about it, had questions about a long-term fruit food. In his experience, there is certainly no such species in their area.

One of the servants in the guard flew up the mountain and came back with two fruits, one for Lao Zeng and the other for Mai Ke.

Lao Zeng looked closely and carefully, but still did not recognize, and felt that this kind of fruit was larger than chestnuts and had an oval shape before before.

On the contrary, it was Mai Ke, after getting his hands, he peeled off the skin and felt familiar. He searched through his memory and finally remembered: Brazil nut.

Isn't this the big, oily, and taste-friendly Brazil nut? Why is it here too?

Mai Ke then told everyone that this is called Brazil nut, which originally grew normally in a distant country. Since this is a special area that God has preserved, it is clearly God's will to appear here.

Listening to Mai Ke say this, everyone believes it. In fact, Lao Zeng still knows how to do it, and others, including Fu Changlong, can only listen to what others say.

The second layer grows fruit trees that fall somewhere between dried and fruit. Lao Zeng continued to do the identification and introduction work. There are many kinds here, and there are even more people I don't know. But he can distinguish the large ones, including jujubes, hawthorns, black dates, plums, apricots, cherries, grapes, pomegranates, kiwi fruits, and so on.

Mai Ke also found figs and olives, sandwiched between this level. It's a Middle Eastern specialty. Lao Zeng skipped these two kinds of fruit trees, and there was no introduction, so it is estimated that he did not know him.

At the bottom are the seasonal fruits, mostly tropical and subtropical fruit varieties, including persimmons, pears, apples, and peaches from the north.

Among the fruits in the south, mainly bananas, lychees, mangoes, papayas, oranges, grapefruits, mandarins, and even durians.

Lao Zeng was amazed by the wide variety of these dried fruits and fruits. What made him even more incredible was that these fruits, which were supposed to grow and ripen in different seasons, ripen in the same season!

In fact, it was not only Lao Zeng who felt strange, everyone was suspicious, even Mai Ke knew that melons, fruits, pears and peaches were produced in season. When Lao Zeng asked Mai Ke this question, Mai Ke had no answer, why this was the case.

Suddenly, Mai Ke had an idea, and remembered his "spirit rhino movement": "I can use it to command flowers, plants, trees, and even earth, rocks and mud, can't I read the information kept on these fruit trees?"

"I might as well try!"

Mai Ke said to try, and an inquiring idea was exchanged with a tall apple tree not far from him. Then look intently at the target tree and see how it reacts.

I saw that the tree shook slightly, and the leaves that had been slightly drooping stood upright with a "swish", and they all turned to Mai Ke like a sonar radar aimed at the sound source.

Mai Ke seemed to hear a majestic voice speak to him, his tone was desolate, and he had a very deep sense of history: "Haha, child. You're the first human to talk to me in 5,000 years. For 5,000 years, I've seen so many things that no one can share with each other, only as a chat between our trees. What do you want to know, you ask?"

It's been 5,000 years, is it the first wave of plants to appear after the Great Flood? That's really old-timer, very old.

"That's disrespectful! I'm so sorry to disturb you. Are these trees here at the same time as you?"

"Son, I told you, we haven't seen anyone here, you are the first, not only did you not bother us, but you were very welcome.

"You're right, these trees, big or small, young or old, are actually here at the same time. For 5,000 years, we watched the sunrise every day and counted the days......"

It seems that this tree is as old as a person, and he also likes to nag, and he does not forget the five thousand years, just like the old man often says how he is seventy years old.

"Where is the fruit of you and the other trees?" Mai Ke asked with a heavy question.

They don't waste their time here without a purpose, do they?

"How can we waste our time?" It seems that this old tree can also read Mai Ke's thinking, so he retorted to Mai Ke with a little dissatisfaction.

"The fruit we produce is the only ration you see for the birds and beasts, and both the young mothers and young animals in the field behind eat the dried and fresh fruits we produce. Haven't you seen them all, I don't know anything about this?"

This Mai Ke really doesn't know. Aren't most of these birds and animals carnivores? Especially the fierce ones, who have different diets and are vegetarians?

"Don't they eat meat?" Mai Ke inadvertently asked a very stupid question.

"Uh-huh-huh, you're stupid?" asked the old apple tree.

Mai Ke is still there, and the second monk is at a loss. Blankly asked, "Why are you stupid, me?"

"It's a peaceful home, and everyone is like family. Do you think you can be friends today and eat your friends tomorrow? Or are you like you human beings, the law of the jungle? Hmph!

Mai Ke just wanted to open his mouth and defend the human race, but he didn't want to say a lot like the old apple, and it seemed that the accumulated resentment was too deep.

"We can't go out, but our hearing is superb. In this small place outside, people hurt people, people hurt people, and people kill people, and people eat people from time to time.

"When you curse, you often say that people are not grass and trees, and animals are not as good as animals. In my opinion, human beings are numb and more ruthless than plants and trees, and when they are corrupted, they are worse than animals.

"Even when it's not bad, it's not as good as these birds and beasts, let alone compare with us. For example......"

If he were to pour out all his grudges for 5,000 years, it would be estimated that my beard would have to grow more than a foot long, and my grandson would not want to hug him.

Mai Ke hurriedly changed the topic: "Old man, stop for a moment, we still have urgent things to do, we have to leave quickly, and I will talk to you when I am free." Now for your last question: 'Why do these trees ripen at the same time here when they grow in different seasons elsewhere?'"
