627 Seedlings in forests
Behind the battle flags there was also a long line that stretched deep into the forest. It was coffin after coffin, each of which was carried by four people. They were held securely, and they walked without a sway, as if they were afraid of waking the people inside—though they would never wake up again.
Everyone's eyes took their eyes off the battle flag and followed.
In the coffin, it contained the remains of Huang Qingping and all the members of the staff department!
Twenty people moved in unison, and all of them involuntarily straightened their backs and stood up.
The long procession walked slowly to the clearing in the middle with steady steps, and stopped next to the hole in the ground.
The four people in front took a step to the side, still holding the battle flag, while the people behind put down the coffin held high. One coffin after another was laid flat and neatly arranged. Eighteen coffins, one is not less!
The lid of the coffin had been closed, and only the reflective black surface could be seen, and the people inside could not be seen.
Gu Qingyuan said in a deep voice: "We are here today to see off our heroes in Dongwu Prefecture. They were the first to join the war and the ones who paid the most for it. It was they who brought victory to our Dongwu Prefecture -- a most valuable victory! For this victory, they sacrificed their time, their health, their hearts and minds, and even their own lives!"
"Today we are standing here, we can still have a future, and they have closed their eyes and cannot see anything. ”
The people around stood up straight. The head drooped slightly, and the face showed sorrow.
Most of these twenty people are the core figures of Dongwu Prefecture, and they are also the group of people who have the deepest understanding of the meaning of this war.
They couldn't have known better than what the sacrifice of the eighteen people in the staff department represented!
All of them had clearly seen the whole process of their sacrifice in the light screen, and in retrospect, there was a faint trace of grief and anger in the grief and pain.
Chang Ming had the spiritual power of the Great Grandmaster level at this time, and his mind was already extremely stable. But at this time, I looked at the coffins in front of me. His heart shook violently.
Especially when you think about it. Long before the divine punishment, no, long before the start of the organ war, Huang Qingping and the others already knew what would happen to Lu Dao in the future. I was already planning to die. Sacrifice for this organ war. He couldn't help but have hot eyes, and he couldn't wait to roar angrily!
He clenched his fists tightly, and scenes passed by him.
From the earliest days. Whether it was Gu Qingting or Huang Qingping, they all deliberately concealed his existence. In retrospect, Ximen Wushuang wanted to kill him at the beginning, but the Sky Slashing City was slow to react, and he was disgusted because of this. In fact, at that time, Sky Slashing City had some scruples, for his safety, he didn't dare to be too brazen!
After that, one exhortation after another, one arrangement after another, all in order not to let the temple notice his presence, to protect his safety, his future.
When the War Committee chose the plan he handed over, Huang Qingping had already determined his end!
is bent on dying, or dying for others, but Huang Qingping has always behaved so calmly and calmly. From beginning to end, he has been devoted to his work, wholeheartedly perfecting the plan, consolidating the details, and finally winning the victory for Dongwuzhou with a gorgeous and amazing command, and also laying his own dead!
Chang Ming clenched his fists tightly and closed his eyes tightly, suppressing the tears that were about to flow.
If he had been replaced, would he have behaved like this?
No, no way!
There seemed to be a figure of Huang Qingping in front of him again, he raised his eyebrows slightly, his thick black eyebrows were like blades, extremely resolute and decisive.
Huang Qingping has an unimaginable, strong and great heart!
Gu Qingyuan's voice was heavy and slow, everyone lowered their heads, and a few people even burst into tears uncontrollably.
Finally, as soon as he finished speaking, he stared at the coffin in front of him for a while, waved his hand tiredly, and said, "Nail the coffin." ”
Chang Ming suddenly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, can I see their remains?"
Gu Qingyuan glanced at him unexpectedly, and was just about to say something, as if he had thought of something, but finally nodded.
Chang Ming strode to the side of the coffin, and as soon as his hand was pressed on the lid of the coffin, he hesitated, and his fingertips trembled a little. But after the end, he still took a deep breath and resolutely removed the lid of the coffin.
The eighteen bodies have all been retouched, and the remaining seventeen staff members are fine, Huang Qingping was struck by lightning for 24 hours, and almost turned into a whole mass of charcoal, no matter how much he retouched, it is impossible to restore his original appearance.
Chang Ming's eyes were wide open, without a trace of evasion.
He stared at Huang Qingping's face for a long, long time, just like Gu Qingyuan at the beginning.
At the crystal ruins, he witnessed the whole process of the divine punishment ceremony with his own eyes, and saw how Huang Qingping became what he is step by step. Now, he saw Huang Qingping's most beautiful appearance with his own eyes, no less than the original mood churned again, gathered and rising, and was deeply suppressed in the depths of his heart.
More than half of the people next to them had never seen it with their own eyes, and then they all turned their heads and showed unbearable expressions.
Chang Ming watched it for a long time, until he confirmed that he would never forget this scene for the rest of his life, he took a step back and nodded towards Gu Qingyuan.
An attendant walked over and handed Gu Qingyuan a cloth bag. Gu Qingyuan opened it, revealing a trap dog inside.
This trap dog is the most common of beginner traps, and it looks very old, as if it has been many years.
Gu Qingyuan held it carefully, sighed, leaned down himself, and placed it beside Huang Qingping.
Gu Qingyuan said in a low voice: "Minister Huang had no long things before his death, and he had no relatives, only this organ dog to accompany him. Now, let it stay with him. ”
Noble and high-ranking officials rarely use traps as pets. Famous pets that need to be waited on by someone are their favorite playthings. You see this trap dog now. At the same time, their hearts tightened, and several people couldn't help but hide their faces and cry.
Why would Huang Qingping give up an ordinary pet and "raise" a machine dog?
Because he had long known that he would die, and he was unwilling to drag down a new life!
Thinking of Huang Qingping's mood when he stroked this machine dog, Chang Ming also had a sour nose and pressed his eyes tightly.
The lid of the coffin was closed, and long nails were driven in, nailing the lid firmly to the coffin. The gaps in the lid of the coffin are then sealed with a special glue.
The black coffin was lifted again. Put them in the tomb in turn.
Gu Qingyuan took over the Sky Cutting Battle Flag. Turned around and handed it to Chang Ming. Chang Ming let out a long sigh of relief, and his forehead and nose were a little red. He nodded, took the battle flag, and waved his hand. The turquoise battle flag looked more and more shabby in the sunlight. A thick smell of iron and fire came to my face.
Chang Ming covered the Sky Slashing Battle Flag on Huang Qingping's coffin. He didn't stay long before he got up. The superfluous expression on his face has completely disappeared and he has become calm.
The coffin has been buried, and the next step is according to the rules of Qi Tian City. It is to plant the saplings that have been prepared one by one.
The whole process was silent, except for the rustle of dirt filling and tree branches.
At the back, a row of eighteen small trees lined up neatly, filling the open space.
Chang Ming suddenly took a step and walked to the middle of the newly formed forest, and with a touch of his hand on the ground, a "trap tree" suddenly appeared on the ground. As soon as it appeared, countless fine roots sprouted underneath it, digging into the dirt and swooping into the depths of the soil.
The trap tree has a total of nine branches, each with nine leaves on it. Originally, the leaves were drooping and looked listless. When it was fully rooted, each leaf trembled and stood up on the branches.
In an instant, the trap tree came alive, swaying gently in the breeze, like a real tree.
It swayed gently, and little by little white mangs gradually appeared on the leaves, and the white mangs melted into the air and drifted towards the surroundings.
The trap tree was located in the middle of the eighteen small saplings, and the white rays were overflowing, and they soon came across these small trees. I saw that the white mang only flashed, and it was absorbed by the small tree!
Then, a shocking sight appeared, and the small saplings, which were only the thickness of a wrist, suddenly began to sway together at the same frequency as the machine tree in the middle. They swayed as they absorbed the white glow emanating from the trap tree. Suddenly germination began on the branches of the saplings, and the buds gave birth to young leaves, which grew, and then fell.
At this moment, as if the clock of time had been set aside, the little sapling suddenly began to grow faster!
Sprouts, grows, and leaves fall, old branches thicken and new branches emerge. The saplings grow upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye, the canopy rapidly expands to both sides, and the middle trunk also thickens in circles!
Soon, the sapling could no longer be called a sapling, and the small tree, which was originally only one person tall, instantly surpassed the top of the tallest one's head and continued to grow upward.
Two-meter, three-meter, four-meter......
They grow taller and bigger.
Suddenly, small buds grew on the branches, and the buds bloomed into brilliant red flowers, and the white flowers became red fruits, and blood droplets accumulated on the branches little by little.
Everyone looked up at the scene in amazement. Gu Qingyuan muttered, "It takes three years for the blood green tree to blossom and bear fruit......
It turned out that in the blink of an eye, one minute turned into three years, and eighteen small saplings became a small forest!
The flowers bloom, the fruits fall, and in the blink of an eye, it is another three years.
At the end of the day, the flowers are gone, and the branches are full of fruits. They are crowded one after another, and they grow extremely luxuriantly.
The branches of the eighteen trees intersect with each other, covering the sky tightly. Only occasionally a little sunlight shines through the branches and falls on the tomb plaque next to the tree. Next to the tomb, vines linger and wildflowers flourish, setting off a beautiful scenery here! (To be continued......)
