Five Frozen Centuries Chapter 131 - Mountain God

Chapter 131: Mountain G.o.d

The auntie straightened her body after catching her breath. The rose bushes on both sides of her body swayed again and tried to create an atmosphere around her.

However, the auntie waved her hand. “Alright, children. These are my compatriots. They have no ill intentions. Let me talk to them.”

The flower branches suddenly stopped moving. A few of the flowers that were not affected by the dragon flames suddenly stood up, as if saying, ‘No ill intentions? What nonsense are you talking about? Do you see the dry ground and countless burned branches?’

Wei Huo was confused. The flame wings on his back disappeared, but the lightning around his body did not vanish. He asked, “You call these flowers… children?”

The auntie consoled the plants and told Wei Huo, “Yes, they’re still children. I just planted them a few days ago. I have feelings for them. Don’t hurt them. They won’t hurt you either.”

The rose branches would not hurt Wei Huo and the others any more, as they dodged in panic whenever Wei Huo moved.

Xiao Bin and the others ran in and helped Mo Guyun up. She said apologetically, “I’m fine. It’s all my fault. I plucked the flowers.”

Wei Huo glanced at her and asked the auntie, “If I’m not mistaken, there seem to be bones of many animals buried in this land. These roses are so bright because they grew up consuming blood, right?”

Mo Guyun’s heart skipped a beat. She thought about what would have happened to her if Wei Huo had not saved her.

At that moment, the way everyone looked at the auntie changed. Could she be a secret expert?

The auntie said, “You guys… Humans are still eating chickens, pigs, and sheep. Are you not allowed to eat plants and animals? If the children were not protecting us, we would have been eaten up by the beasts!”

“You guys?” Everyone was confused by the term.

“Forget it. Come in with me. You’ll know what’s going on after you see it. There are six of you, right? We’re having flower pastries. Come and try it.”

As the lady was talking, the rhinoceros walked out of the jungle behind them. Purple Meow, the Gold-Eater, and the tree followed the rhinoceros.

The auntie was speechless.

The rose bushes made way so Wei Huo’s traveling caravan could follow the auntie.

The auntie’s surname was Li. She was a planter who worked in the rose garden. When time had suddenly stopped, and the other workers in the rose garden had been protected by the golden light. However, there were no roses. Five hundred years later, humans were still humans, but the roses were no longer roses.

“Auntie, are we back on Earth? Is this the dinosaur era?” Xiao Bin could not help but think that he had transmigrated to another world.

Auntie Li glanced at him. “How can this be fake? I saw a triceratops barge into the rose garden yesterday.”

Wei Huo asked, “This rose garden?”

Auntie Li said, “These are dinosaur-era roses!”

Wei Huo asked, “Are there cavemen?”

“Dinosaur-era cavemen!”

Wei Huo pointed at the rhinoceros, the purple cat, and the giant squirrel that ate iron ores.

“Dinosaur-era rhinoceros! Dinosaur-era cat! Dinosaur-era squirrel!”

Everyone was speechless.

Xiao Bin said weakly, “Experts say that mammals appeared after dinosaurs died. Humans appeared later.”

As the rose branches on either side of her supported her, Auntie Li said confidently, “Can experts be trusted? Do you know what’s real?”

Soon, everyone followed Auntie Li out of the rose garden. They saw a manor and over ten children running around. A female teacher in her twenties shouted, “Don’t run around! Listen to my orders. Grab the hoes. We’ll learn how to plant flowers and trees!”

Auntie Li explained, “These children came to our rose garden to play. The teacher brought them here to play, but they transmigrated to the dinosaur era with us. I asked the teacher to plant flowers and trees for them so they could survive in the rose garden.”

Wei Huo was confused. “How do you communicate with the roses? How do they understand what you are talking about?”

When Auntie Li heard that, she smiled faintly, but her eyes could not hide the smugness in them. “This started thanks to my years of experience planting trees. When I first arrived here, we were also afraid. However, the rose seedlings and the hoe in my hands transmigrated with me. Because of the plant seedlings and the hoe, the Mountain G.o.d summoned me, hoping that I could help him grow all sorts of plants. After I ate the fruit he gave me, the roses could understand my words.”

Everyone was astonished. They were shocked by this. However, they could not understand why there was a Tree-Man behind them.

The Tree-Man stopped in his tracks and told Wei Huo, “I’m not going in. I’ll rest here. Call me if you need anything.”

No one understood what the giant tree was talking about apart from Wei Huo. He glanced at the giant tree and thought about it for a moment before saying, “That’s fine. The animals should stay too. Wei Sha, take good care of them.”

The Tree-Man stopped. He dug a huge hole and buried the lower part of his body. When he closed his eyes again, it was as if he had turned into a real tree.

The animals and savages in the team stopped and rested by the tree. The Gold-Eater jumped onto a tree branch and stared at Wei Huo and the others while chewing on metal.

“Big Sister Li, you’re back. You… brought someone back?” The teacher greeted Big Sister Li respectfully at first, but she was surprised when she saw Wei Huo and the others behind Big Sister Li.

Big Sister Li waved her hand. “I brought some guests back. Prepare the food!”

Wei Huo said, “I don’t think there’s any meat here. I brought some meat myself. Let’s eat it together.”

Upon hearing about the meat, the adults and the children in the rose garden swallowed their saliva.

Wei Huo glanced at Mo Guyun. “Doctor Mo, you should know how to cook. Go help them. We can’t eat with them without contributing!”

Mo Guyun’s eyes widened. I was injured, and my clothes were torn. I only hurriedly put on a coat I found in Liu Ying’s village. Now, you’re asking me to cook?

Auntie Li said, “Young lady, you were injured earlier, right? Why would you cook? I’ll take you to give you some medicine.”

Wei Huo glanced at Xiao Bin. Xiao Bin immediately understood. He jumped forward and said, “I know how to cook. I’ll help. We have a lot of meat here, but we have no cooks. Great, we don’t have to eat roasted meat anymore.”

The moment he mentioned meat, the children swallowed their saliva. They had not eaten meat in 10 days and they had been eating flower petals and fruit every day. If it were not for the flour in the manor, they probably would not have been able to eat flower pastries.

Wei Huo looked at Xiao Bin in approval and told Auntie Li, “I want to meet the Mountain G.o.d you mentioned. Is that possible?”
