Chapter 321: Dream Tree
Rotten wood grows green, loess grows spring, dead branches sprout, and earthworms renovate.
After seeing a few dead realms full of barrenness and lifelessness, it was the first time that Lin Yu saw a new sprout in this dark place.
It's a vibrant green that grows tenaciously in the dark underground.
The young sprouts grow tenaciously, stretching their branches, and beneath the earth, their new roots are greedily stretching around, sucking in water and nutrients.
Although there is no sun here, and the warm wind outside, the young shoots don't care, they grow freely, showing their greenery in front of Lin Yu's eyes.
"Little seeds grow fast!"
Dream Spirit couldn't help but be surprised when he looked at the seedlings that had grown as tall as himself after a short while.
"So, this seed is a little different, it may not be the flower of evil omen, maybe it is just the opposite of the Dead Domain."
Looking at the meridians and leaf veins on the seedlings, as well as the greenery that was about to overflow the leaves, Lin Yu said.
They were right, this seed might not have much to do with the Dead Realm, but was just a seed obtained by chance.
It's just that in the embryonic stage, he hasn't figured out what this seedling has to do with this place.
When the seedlings grew bigger and bigger, and after a while, they jumped to the height of more than one person, and began to spread their leaves, looking at the rich and emerald green leaves, Lin Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He seemed to have seen this leaf in some places, but for a moment, he couldn't remember its name.
The leaves are arranged in a pinnate pattern, and the young buds that have been spit out on the top are slightly goose-yellow.
As the unknown plant grew, he pricked up his ears, and when he inquired, he could hear the sound of the wood in the branches.
Just like the rustle of sawdust when it hits the ground, it has grown to such a height in just a short time, starting from a seed, to a young shoot, and now to a small sapling more than half a human tall.
The soil in the pit where it was buried had also collapsed, and some of the roots that were exposed to the surface were tangled and firmly grasping the soil on the ground, holding it under their feet.
At the same time, close to the water source, the roots of the small tree become particularly thick, and some of the roots are directly exposed to the ground, extending in the direction of the small river, and soon there are countless additional roots at the water's edge, which are intertwined to form a dense grid, and the small tree grows especially quickly under the moisture of water and soil.
When it grew to a person's height, Lin Yu finally recognized this seemingly familiar tree.
Its roots and branches, as well as its clumps of leaves, which resemble the common acacias, and its slightly greyish bark, and the faint gold trim on the edges of the leaves, make it extraordinary.
"Dream Spirit, do you think this tree looks familiar?"
When the Dream Spirit heard this, he raised his head and tried to look at the small tree in front of him, which was much taller than himself.
"Hmm! It looks a lot like a banyan tree, but the leaves don't quite look like that. ”
"How do I think it's a bit like an acacia? And this drooping aerial root does look a bit like a banyan tree, but the leaves are not, and there is a canopy part. ”
"Master, we may all be mistaken, this is neither an acacia tree nor a banyan tree, perhaps it is a very long-lived and very ancient tree species."
Lin Yu's heart moved, and he looked at the dream spirit, only to see it slowly approaching the small tree.
And in their eyes, the trees are still growing rapidly.
In a short time, a layer of white fluff grew on its rough bark, like the white fluff that cats gave them, and it was tightly wrapping the skin of the tree.
"This is the king of trees, the most tenacious tree in the harsh winter and heat, I remember it seems to be called the first glory tree. In the hometown of Dream Spirit, there is such a big tree, but I haven't seen it when it was a child! Now seeing the white fluff on its bark, the Dream Spirit finally remembered! It is the first Huang wood, also called Dream Wood! It's a tree rooted in deep dreams, but how can it appear in this place? ”
The dream spirit screamed, and after Lin Yu heard its explanation, he couldn't help but stand up and look around.
Now, where they were, countless huge mushrooms were lit up around them, and some small insects with faint fluorescent tails were gathering in this direction following a certain smell and feeling.
After a while, in the place where the dream tree grows, a large group of flying insects are forming a circle and flying around the small tree.
For a while, the place where they were located became very lively.
First, the seeds take root, the small trees grow, and then the bugs are attracted to them.
When the insects chirp, some small birds and beasts are also attracted to them.
Soon, some small glowing animals gathered under the small tree and squeaked at the small tree.
Although, in this dim and lightless underground, the light of the sun cannot be projected in.
But on the bodies of these gathered birds and beasts, the faint light formed a bright aura here.
Under the influence of the aura, the small trees grew faster and faster, and at the same time, the mushrooms growing in this area also began to wither in the last light.
They shrank, and even giant mushrooms several meters tall eventually collapsed, and the huge umbrella cover turned into dust and sank to the bottom, and they gave the last light to the little tree, and at the same time, they also infiltrated the earth with their own nutrients to nourish the new tree.
In this, there is not only the plundering of the little trees themselves, but also the selfless dedication of the mushrooms.
When the small tree is normal enough for the two to hug, it stops growing, and at that time, around the big tree, countless birds and insects are flying, and in this slightly lonely underground, it also adds a bit of vitality and liveliness.
"It's so beautiful!"
The Dream Spirit opened her mouth wide and looked straight at the tree in front of her.
Lin Yu looked around, and the mushrooms that were gradually dimming were a little distracted.
He knew that mushrooms didn't grow on the ground from the beginning.
The foundation of their life is on rotten wood.
Only dead trees do mushrooms grow.
When the trees die, they do not turn into mud and dust, but into dead wood, which becomes a breeding ground for moss and mushrooms.
When the mushrooms are growing and illuminating everything, the tree's mission is complete.
This land, which has been silent for a long time, needs something new to give it a new lease of life.
Decay will inevitably lead to more serious decay and erosion, and perhaps, the Dead Domain was born at this time.
The death of the big tree brought vitality at the same time, and some dead wood also secretly generated a rotten dead domain.
They're just dead trees, the last bit of struggle.
The souls of the dead trees gather here, because of the decay in the dark, giving birth to red flowers.
The flower of evil omen is not necessarily death, but a new life in another sense.
They grab the vitality of the mushroom, and under the buds, give birth to new seeds.
And this seed, after he came and plucked the flower of bad omen, fully ripened.
Now, it has been planted by his own hands and has grown into a towering tree.
It may not be like an ordinary tree, bearing the wind, frost, rain and dew, towards the sun, but the creatures here will bring it a different kind of liveliness and vitality.
