Chapter 597: Chapter 173: Yuezhou in Reconstruction [Two in One] _3 Chapter 597: Chapter 173: Yuezhou in Reconstruction [Two in One] _3 “Hahaha, the master is back, back, back!”

“Bang bang clang…”

The root network that stretched under the entirety of Yuezhou City was writhing and rustling with frantic excitement, spreading the news.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the entire flora community of Yuezhou became aware of this promising news.

Yes, all the large trees in Yuezhou City got the word.

Especially the two Iron Heart Trees located in Feng Yin’s courtyard were now joyfully swaying in the breeze after hearing the news. Despite being stripped bare while protecting the courtyard and its surrounding residents, their dance in the wind was rather mesmerizing.

In fact, they were doing much better than their peers. They were Iron Heart Trees possessing hearts of their own. Their defiant rigidity was unparalleled among ordinary trees.

Even though they had many broken branches, they still had a sturdy trunk. No matter how battered and scarred they were, they were still far from a mere bare trunk.

Now their leaves rustled in the wind. “Whooosh… Whooosh…”

As if welcoming their master home, yet seemingly overwhelmed with emotions to the point of shedding tears.

Aside from practicing, the Zhu Weiran couple was excessively idle. Upon hearing the rustling, they looked up in confusion.

“There’s no wind. Why are the leaves rustling?”

Suddenly, both of them saw that the two Iron Heart Trees were… Between the sparse leaves of the remaining branches, rapidly budding flowers.

Under their gaze, in the blink of an eye, the buds bloomed, releasing a captivating fragrance.

“Holy smokes…what season is this?”

Hu Lengyue’s eyes widened in disbelief: “It’s winter… almost New Year, yet these trees are blossoming.”

“I’m telling you, you’re focusing on the wrong thing. It’s the Iron Heart Tree, the Iron Heart Tree that’s blooming. That in itself is abnormal!” Zhuang Weiran’s eyes also widened.

This situation was exceedingly odd, bizarrely beyond comprehension.

At least to Zhuang Weiran’s knowledge, Iron Heart Trees rarely bloom, usually it takes tens of thousands of years for one to bloom. But he didn’t know that these two Iron Heart Trees in Feng Yin’s courtyard had bloomed more than once!

Feng Yin and his group entered the city.

Teams of workers could be seen everywhere in Yuezhou City at this moment, and rubble was scattered all around. However, this is the power of humanity. As long as they survive, no matter how ravaged their home becomes, they quickly rebuild it.

The more challenging the circumstance, the more the glory of human nature shines through.

Many construction teams during this time volunteered to lower their wages, asking only for basic necessities such as having a meal while feverishly working.

The army also actively assisted in the reconstruction efforts.

The bailiffs, the Heavenly Clothes, were also bustling about, distributing supplies.

Countless citizens, if they couldn’t help directly, went home to cook, quickly delivering hot meals to the construction sites.

Handing over bowl after bowl with humble smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes: “You’ve worked hard, kids… Have something to eat, drink some water.”

“…”

Construction sites were bustling everywhere.

Some people were tasked with inspection, ensuring that newly built structures could withstand a certain degree of vibration and impact, especially the foundations, which had to be firmly compacted.

Anything not up to code, the whip would come down.

“What the hell kind of work is this?!”

“Do it all over again!”

“Hurry up!”

Many officials, donned in conspicuous official uniforms, were seen moving about all through the city.

Homeless elderly people and children were temporarily housed in designated areas.

And there were no less than twenty such places set up across the city.

All doctors, each carrying a medicine box and ringing a small bell in hand, were given way by the citizens. Everyone knew that these doctors were racing against death every day to save lives.

Pharmacies throughout the city offered their medicines at notably low prices.

Maybe in normal times these people could be called greedy businessmen, who would overcharge or even cheat, but at this moment, they had discarded such thoughts.

They were all offering the best medicinal herbs and most effective drugs, helping to save as many lives as possible.

Everyone in Yuezhou, be it officials or civilians, was using their own means to help Yuezhou recover and trying to get through this disaster as fast as they could.

The roads from afar were ceaselessly busy. This was a constant inflow of aid with supplies and manpower from various towns within the jurisdiction, all rushing forward to lend a hand in the reconstruction!

Atop the city of Yuezhou, a flag as tall as a twenty-storey building was fluttering. The flag was made of thin silk, prominently featuring soaring dragons and dancing phoenixes around the words ‘Great Qin Yuezhou’ in bold calligraphy!

It was said to have been written by the current Emperor of Great Qin himself!

All of this reflected a vibrant hope.

It was the unbreakable spirit of humanity!

The city was destroyed, our homes were destroyed, it doesn’t matter, we can rebuild!

We will rebuild!

No one can break us as long we still have people alive!

Another notable sight in Yuezhou City was that every household of significant status set up food tents at their gates.

Any disaster victim who felt hungry was welcome to have a meal, then turn around and continue helping with whatever they could.
