Day by day in the infinite game

When Lao Hu arrived after hearing the news, the chaotic scene had just come to an end.

Under the cold moonlight, seeing the chopped down trees piled up and down in a mess on the ground, Lao Hu felt a tightness in his chest, and he swayed a few times before he could stand still.

He didn't say anything, he just walked slowly to the fallen trees and stretched out his trembling hands to help them up.

This is a hard-earned forest that he spent his entire youth and devoted all his efforts on. It is his pride and his hope.

A suppressed cry of pain resounded in the moonlit forest.

The culprits Jia Dabao and Slender Man have been tied up, and the corresponding evidence has been recorded. They are just waiting for Lao Hu to come over and see his attitude.

The rest of the people were just "accomplices" who were paid to do things. After their logging tools were taken away and the boss was arrested, he didn't want to cause more trouble and just stood aside with his hands tied.

Tang Qinqin tried to talk and communicate with the trees whose trunks were cut down.

Normally, trees will die after being cut down, but some tree species can be rescued and rejuvenated if the tree is not seriously injured and there are dormant buds at the right time and place.

Of course, the chance of this is very small under normal circumstances, and not all tree species have dormant buds that can sprout branches again when the right time comes.

The condition of the felled trees was not good.

The lumberjacks brought by Jia Dabao and the Slender Man cut down the trees almost flat to the roots. In this case, even if there were dormant buds on the trees, they were also cut down, leaving only the bare roots.

.

Tang Qinqin walked over and quietly poured the diluted water of life on their roots and exposed growth rings.

Their vitality is severely damaged, and they will not die if they have the water of life. However, they need a period of "recuperation and recuperation" in the past few months. After this period of time, they will be able to grow new shoots and be reborn.

At that time, it should be a kind of comfort to Lao Hu.

"Uncle Hu, don't be sad, they will make them pay the price they deserve." Tang Qinqin walked to Lao Hu and helped him up, who was silent.

Lao Hu stood up and slowly regained some strength. When he passed by Jia Dabao and the tall and thin man, he turned back and glared at them fiercely.

"That's great, that's great, you guys..." Lao Hu's red eyes were full of regret and anger.

"Lao Hu, I was wrong, I was wrong. Please let us go. I will compensate for these losses!" Jia Dabao cried to Lao Hu with tears streaming down his face.

"I was distracted for a moment and did stupid things. Lao Hu, considering that we are old acquaintances, please forgive me this time..."

The tall and thin man said nothing and just stood there with his neck hunched.

Under the moonlight, the silent forest echoed with Jia Dabao's sobbing and begging for mercy.

Lao Hu shook his head, stopped looking at the embarrassed Jia Dabao, and walked over.

"Send them to where they belong."

With a long sigh, he walked out of the forest with a slight stagger.

After Lao Hu left, Dong Mingzhe and others were worried and arranged for several players to follow behind and secretly escort him.

There are also some players who are guarding the two "horse thieves" and the lumberjacks, waiting until daybreak to pack them up together with the evidence and send them to justice.

…

After this incident, Lao Hu's originally cheerful spirit visibly shrank and he became taciturn.

He spent all day long in the saline-alkali land, busy improving the soil, reclaiming wasteland and planting trees, without getting tired.

It was hard for Tang Qinqin to tell him that those trees would regain their spring, after all, it sounded too far-fetched.

Jia Dabao and Slim Man confessed to what they had committed.

After all, such a clear video with no blind spots completely recorded their "evidence of crime", making it impossible to deny.

According to the provisions of the National Forest Law, illegal logging or indiscriminate logging of forests or other trees in national nature reserves will be severely punished.

Jia Dabao and Slender Man did what they knew they couldn't do, destroying precious forests that were difficult to grow just for the little profit in front of them. In the end, they both got a special silver bracelet and lost their freedom to accept labor.

Renovation took several years.

This incident can be regarded as "killing the chicken to scare the monkeys", scaring the wood buyers who shared their thoughts and did not dare to do it again for a long time.

When the players were about to complete the game mission and leave, Lao Hu unexpectedly discovered that the trees he once thought were certain to die had quietly sprouted new buds.

He couldn't help but his eyes turned red again.

This time it was because I was happy.

What could be more exciting and comforting than seeing hope?

When the players were learning how to manage saline-alkali land with Lao Hu, they got permission to broadcast the game live throughout the process. Many people with money and leisure were infected by their spirit of not fearing hardship, so they contributed money or efforts, which attracted more people.

, there was a wave of enthusiasm in society to reclaim saline-alkali land and plant trees.

Because many mature trees in Lao Hu's forest were destroyed before, in order to prevent any unexpected results in the mission, each player over-completed the mission as much as possible.

[The saline-alkali land planting mission has been completed. It will be transferred to the next scene. Countdown is 01:59:59.]

Lao Hu's eyes were sour, and he lowered his head so that the players who came to say goodbye did not notice it.

"Okay, don't be nagging. If you want to leave, leave quickly. Don't stay here and whine. I still have a lot of things to do and I'm very busy."

After that, he picked up the big enamel vat and poured some water.

"Uncle Hu, we are leaving. You have to take care of yourself. I have caused you trouble during this period!"

"Uncle Hu, take care of yourself!"

"Uncle Hu, see you later!"

"Uncle Hu, when we come back someday, let's have a whole-sheep feast together!" With such a flamboyant tone, no one else except Lao Tian.

"This stinky boy!" Lao Hu, whose heart was choked by the sorrow of separation, couldn't help but have fun and spat.

Because of the arrival of this group of young people, there is a large new forest area filled with seedlings of various tree species next to the originally mature forest area.

He could feel the vitality emanating from those saplings. If he took good care of them, over time, a new and complete forest ecology would be formed, which would have a beneficial impact on the soil improvement, water, soil, and climate of this saline-alkali land, and gradually improve it.

This land was once barren.

Sometimes he would feel a little dazed, as if through this group of young people, he could see himself, who was also full of enthusiasm, persisted in his beliefs, and worked conscientiously in an ordinary position.

"Let's go, you should go and see the wider sky. I hope you can always maintain your enthusiasm and never forget your original intention." Lao Hu finished speaking with rare emotion and waved to the players.

All feasts come to an end, and moving forward with regrets is the normal state of life.

And what we can do is to walk and cherish it along the way.
