This kind of lightning-struck wood, even after a hundred years, doesn’t decay, but it loses its vitality. Amid this lush green forest, it stands out, conspicuous and eye-catching. She is human, it is a tree, and there seems to be no inevitable connection. However, in these years of renewal, this lightning-struck wood witnessed the death and rebirth of her two lifetimes. Gu Qiaoqiao slowly reached out her hand and then placed it on the tree trunk. The tree trunk, devoid of vitality, had an indescribable dryness. The moment Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand touched it, it felt somewhat uncomfortable. The ancient tree, struck by lightning, at the moment it lost its vitality, actually carried a trace of fear of nature, and a little bit of unwillingness. Then, due to the lightning-struck wood’s ability to ward off evil, the tree trunk was entirely taken away, making the sense of desolation particularly severe. This gave Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand a slightly stagnant feeling on top. At this moment, Qin Yize’s gaze fell on Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand for just a few seconds, then followed her hand upwards and suddenly said in a low voice, "Qiaoqiao, maybe this tree will sprout new buds next year..." "Well, hopefully, it will sprout new buds." Gu Qiaoqiao spoke softly. While speaking, the fingertips of her right hand were full of Spiritual Energy, like invisible wisps of smoke, quietly flowing towards the cracked bark of the tree trunk. Only for an instant did the stagnant feeling exist, then it gradually disappeared. Gu Qiaoqiao knew that this tree had accepted her Spiritual Energy, so it might very well sprout new buds next year, just as Qin Yize said. A moment later, Gu Qiaoqiao withdrew her hand and, like Qin Yize, tilted her neck to look up to the top of the tree trunk. It would take another year to gather strength, so this tree also needed until next spring to rejuvenate its vitality. But that’s enough as it is. The source of this content ɪs novel·fire.net In this Cloud Mist Mountain, they all gained a second life again. It’s a mercy from Heaven, and also a witness in the reincarnation of time. Life is a continuous cycle. The difference is, when you leave, you don’t have your own consciousness, but the energy you possess still exists within this world. Gu Qiaoqiao was deeply convinced of this. The car in front finally noticed that Qin Yize’s car had stopped, which was Chu Chengfeng’s car. He thought there was a problem with Qin Yize’s car. Quickly, he reversed back and called to the two people on the roadside, "What are you two looking at?" Hearing Chu Chengfeng’s voice, Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize exchanged a smile, then Qin Yize led Gu Qiaoqiao towards the road side. Chu Chengfeng’s car was loaded with a lot of items, so no one was sitting there. Seeing Qin Yize, Chu Chengfeng appeared relaxed and jokingly said, "You’ve been in this forest for over a week and still haven’t had enough? Hurry home, your family is terribly anxious." Then, looking in the direction of the two, he continued to ask, "Is there not a single branch left on that lightning-struck wood?" Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, "No, only the trunk remains." Chu Chengfeng immediately showed a look of regret. Qin Yize patted his shoulder and said in a low voice, "The peace Buddha pendant your sister-in-law gave you, wear it well. It’s more effective than carrying that tree on your back to ward off evil." Gu Qiaoqiao burst into laughter. Chu Chengfeng blinked, wanting to say that he actually already knew this, although not very specifically, but roughly aware.
