The fireworks feast lasted for two hours before it finally came to an end.
The dark clouds gathered by the fireworks could already be seen in the sky.
The entire sky turned gray.
" I finally know why fireworks are banned." He Jiong sighed. It's really polluting the environment."
" Pollution of the environment?" Ye Zimo smiled." Firecrackers are set off once a year. Here, it's twice. However, the ones that really pollute the environment are the cars."
" That's true." They nodded in agreement.
When it came to environmental pollution, cars were the most polluted.
However, even if they knew it, it was impossible to change it in a short period of time. Therefore, there was a reason why the country supported the development of new energy vehicles so much.
When the technology matured, new energy vehicles would slowly replace traditional fuel vehicles. However, there was still a long way to go.
" No matter what, I have to thank the village chief," He Jiong said with a smile." Thank you for letting us witness this fireworks feast and even letting us experience it ourselves."
" If you really want to thank me, I should be the one thanking you," Ye Zimo said," If you don't help me light these fireworks, I'll have to think of a way to deal with them myself."
Ye Zimo was telling the truth. He couldn't finish setting off so many fireworks by himself. In the end, he had to find a place to destroy them.
"Do we still have to move these in?" Chen Yuqi asked as he looked at the wreckage on the ground.
" Put it here," Ye Zimo said," Someone will come over tomorrow morning to clean it up. Don't worry about it."
" Oh, okay." Everyone nodded in understanding.
After saying goodbye, they went back to get some rest. Tonight's trip was really worth it.
" This trip to the Mushroom Hut is really a complete life," Chen Yuqi said on the way.
" It's still too early to talk about this," Huang Lei said with a smile." There's still time. I can slowly experience it."
" Mr. He, let's go see the fish tomorrow," Hot Bar said excitedly.
"Fish?" He Jiong was stunned.
They told them what happened in the afternoon, which surprised them greatly.
" There's actually such a good place?" He Jiong was surprised.
He looked at Huang Lei and asked,"What do you think of Teacher Huang?"
"It's not impossible to go," Huang Lei said. But we need a tour guide."
" That's easy. Let's look for the village chief," Peng Peng said.
"It's not good for us to keep disturbing the village chief, right?”,He Jiong hesitated.
"There's nothing bad about it," Zhang Zifeng said." He's fine anyway. How nice would it be to call him and let's go out for a walk?"
" That's true." He Jiong smiled.
The next morning, Ye Zimo was having breakfast.
The aftereffects of setting off fireworks had all disappeared.
They had thought that the weather would not recover so quickly, but the result surprised He Jiong and the others.
It was just a nap. After waking up, not only did the sky return to its original blue color, but the air also returned to its original state.
" It's really strange, Teacher Huang. The weather actually recovered so quickly," He Jiong said on the way here.
" Indeed. I thought it would take a few days to recover, but now it seems like there's no need at all," Huang Lei nodded.
Is the village chief here?" He Jiong asked when they arrived at the door.
" Yes, wait," Ye Zimo replied, then stood up and left.
Seeing that it was them and all of them had come, Ye Zimo asked,""Are we going out?"
"Village chief, we want to go to the river. Do you have time?”,He Jiong asked with a smile.
Ye Zimo looked at the three people in the bar and understood what was going on.
He said," Wait a while. I'm having breakfast now."
" It's okay. You eat first," He Jiong said immediately.
Ye Zimo nodded and went back to his breakfast.
They had nothing to do, so they sat under the big tree at the door to enjoy the shade.
"Teacher He, Teacher Huang, what kind of tree is this?”,Peng Peng asked.
" If I'm not mistaken, it should be a parasol tree," Huang Lei said after taking a look.
He sighed and said,"Looking at this tree, it must be at least a hundred years old."
"A hundred years?" Peng Peng was surprised.
" What's so strange about it?" He Jiong smiled and said,"" We humans might not even live for more than a hundred years, but to a tree, this is still considered a small number."
" I heard that the older the tree, the more valuable it is," Chen Yuqi said.
" That depends on what kind of tree it is," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" This is a thousand-year-old parasol tree," Ye Zimo said.
" Village Chief," seeing Ye Zimo come out, they quickly stood up.
"You just said that this tree is a thousand years old?”,He Jiong was shocked.
" Mm." Ye Zimo nodded.
He looked at it and said,"This tree is even older than this village. This tree has been here since before Wolong Village existed."
" Heavens, so old." They were shocked when they heard that.
"Thousand-year parasol tree? Hiss!"
"Damn, this tree can be our ancestor, right?"
" It's not just our ancestors. I don't think even our ancestors have this Elder Tree."
"Oh my god, it's actually been a thousand years. It should have become a spirit long ago."
The audience was shocked.
A tree had actually lived for a thousand years. This was an age that they did not even dare to imagine.
" Of course." Ye Zimo nodded.
" But from the size of this tree, it doesn't look like it's a thousand years old," Huang Lei said.
If it had really lived for a thousand years, then this tree would have been so huge by now.
" Don't be surprised," Ye Zimo said." This tree is indeed that old, but a few hundred years ago, a fire broke out in the village, causing the tree to be burned down. The people in the village thought that it was hopeless, but in less than ten years, it miraculously came back to life."
"You're alive?" They smacked their lips.
" Yeah." Ye Zimo nodded and looked at the parasol tree in front of him.
He said," It was also from that time that a house was built here to guard this old tree. The villagers thought that this tree was the root of Wolong Village and could not be damaged."
" So the house you see now is actually the residence of the previous village chiefs. They're guarding this place to protect this old tree."
" I see." Everyone nodded in understanding.
It turned out that such an inconspicuous parasol tree actually had such a history. It was really amazing.
