Chapter 22: Trees

"Who?"

Yan Shuishui was startled, turned his head to look out of the door, and only heard the sound of rustling blades rubbing, and at the same time, there was a subtle sound like the slow bending of wood.

Then, a mottled and large shadow obscured the light in the doorway.

It was a pine tree that had bent over.

Its fully curved trunk, like an arch bridge with a high curvature, makes one wonder if it is still a pine tree that would rather bend, and when the large number of needles in the main crown hangs down to the ground, the poles gradually part, revealing a rough, cracked trunk bark.

Three cracks slowly opened in the bark, the lower two gaps were filled with turquoise light, like two eyes, and the upper one was like a mouth pursed together.

An upside-down, huge, rudimentary face.

It was like a tall and thin giant, bent down, leaned down, tilted its head upside down, stared at Yan Shuishui in the store expressionlessly, opened its mouth again, and repeated slowly and jerkyly:

"Put it down. ”

"This ......" Yan Shuishui looked at the pine face blocked in front of the store in front of him in shock, and muttered, "Dryad?"

She had also heard of the history of the cultivation world, since the great tribulation in the ancient period, there had been no such thing as a 'demon' in the world, because the heavens and the earth were full of omnipresent external demons, and if there was no supreme realm to give the Dharma body inheritance, it would be impossible to practice and absorb the aura of heaven and earth.

Only human beings who are born with spiritual wisdom are eligible to obtain the Dharma Body inheritance of many Dao systems in the Upper Realm.

Even animals can't cultivate and open their spiritual intelligence, let alone plants?

However, at this time, there was actually a dryad in front of her who had opened her mind!

"Is it the ...... of antiquity?"

Yan Shui subconsciously thought of this possibility, and then frowned slightly, "No, this aura is not as strong as me, a little weaker than me......"

If it was a dryad who had opened the spiritual wisdom in ancient times, how could it be that he was only a little stronger than her when he had cultivated so far?

And this pine tree is not very old from the height of the tree, I am afraid that it has only been planted here for many years, maybe it is not as old as her, and it is so difficult and jerky to speak, it should not be long to learn.

There's only one possibilityβ€”it was only recently that it turned on Psion.

"How did you turn on your spiritual intelligence?" Yan Shuishui couldn't help but ask.

The eyebrows on the pine tree's face slowly furrowed, as if thinking about how to answer, and after a while, it said slowly: "He didn't allow me to say it." ”

"He?" Yan Shuishui couldn't help but ask when he heard the name, "Who is he?"

The pine face thought sluggishly for a moment before saying, "I won't tell you." ”

When Yan Shuishui heard this, his eyes rolled slyly, and he said, "Okay, then I won't ask, but are you willing to guard this calligraphy and painting shop for him, is it to repay him for opening up your spiritual wisdom for you?"

"Yes. Pine Faces replied slowly.

"Okay! Sure enough, the owner of this calligraphy and painting shop helped you open your mind!" Yan Shuishui exclaimed, raised his hand as if he had found a big secret, and pointed his index finger at the pine face.

"......Ahh

The pine face seemed to be very confused and wrinkled, and after thinking for a while, he realized that he had been tricked, and his face couldn't help but slowly become entangled and helpless, and there was a trace of grievance, like a bullied child, and said slowly: "Human ...... It's cunning. ”

"Don't worry, I'll just ask. Yan Shuishui waved his hand and asked, "What do you want me to put down?"

"It's his stuff, it's not allowed to be taken away. Pine Face said slowly, and suddenly added vigilantly: "Don't try to lie to me again, I can find out." ”

"Oh, okay. ”

Yan Shuishui nodded, threw a few pieces of waste paper in his hand into the paper basket next to him, raised his hands and said, "I'll put it back, it's okay now, right?"

The pine tree nodded slowly, and the pine needles on his head were like his fur hats, and he shook them for a moment, and said slowly: "As long as you don't take his things, it's fine." ”

Yan Shuishui found that this dryad seemed to have just opened his mind, like a child, and there was no malice, so he couldn't help but smile and asked, "Then I still breathe, and the air in this shop has also been taken away by me, does this count?"

Pine's face froze for a moment, as if he was stunned by her question, and thought for a while in confusion before he said, "Don't count." ”

"That's good. Yan Shuishui smiled, "How old are you this year, can you tell me this?"

"I don't know. Pine Face shook his head.

Yan Shuishui blinked his eyes and said, "Okay, it seems that you have just awakened your spiritual wisdom and haven't really cultivated yet, didn't the person who helped you open your spiritual wisdom pray for you to pass on the Dharma Body to the upper realm?"

"What's that?" asked Pine Face curiously.

Yan Shuishui thought for a while and said, "It can allow you to cultivate the method of turning into a human form." ”

"Become human?" the eyes on the pine tree's face lit up, and it seemed to yearn for it.

"Yes, do you want to?" Yan Shuishui smiled.

Pine tilted his head and thought for a moment before he said, "He didn't say I could become a human......"

Yan Shuishui smiled: "Then why don't you ask him personally?"

"I don't know why, as long as he notices me, I can't move. Pine said in a low voice, "However, I also want to silently help him with the door." ”

Yan Shuishui listened, and suddenly liked this somewhat cute pine tree, and couldn't help but say: "Then I'll help you ask him tomorrow, if he agrees, I will build a Dharma altar for you and pray to the upper realm for the Dharma Body inheritance, how about it?"

Pine thought for a few seconds with a blank face, and said, "You're a good person, thank you." ”

"Hee-hee, of course. Yan Shuishui laughed, and suddenly asked with interest: "By the way, if I'm not mistaken, pine trees are hermaphrodites, if you can turn into a human form, do you want to be a man or a woman?"

"I don't know. ”

Pine frowned, as if thinking about the difference between men and women, thought for a while, and said, "He is also a man, can I become like him?"

"He's a man?" Yan Shuishui didn't expect her to even ask, this simple pine tree said it by itself, could it really be that seemingly mortal young man?

She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you want him to like you too?"

Pine thought again and nodded.

"Then you become a woman. Yan Shuishui said with a smile: "Normal men like women, if you become a woman, maybe he will like you." ”

"Good. The pine face nodded, and became determined.

"Then I'm leaving. Yan Shuishui smiled: "I'll come to you again tomorrow, goodbye." ”

She glanced at the security camera, and didn't continue to look for a way to delete the records, and went straight out of the door of the bookstore, the owner of which was not a mortal anyway.

When the pine tree saw her go out, he straightened up again, slowly closed his eyes and mouth, as if he had become the ordinary pine tree again.
