A year later, Xiao Tao drove away a hare that wanted to come to gnaw on her sacred tree, and sat by the small sapling and muttered to Xia Ye beside her dissatisfied: "Why do you want to come and eat my sacred tree!" Bully it while it's small! It's so damning! ”

Xia Ye rubbed her red hair dotingly, and kissed her lightly on the forehead: "So you have to protect it, just like it protected you before." ”

Xiao Tao nodded seriously, she will protect the sacred tree, she will.

A year ago, when she grew up, the sacred tree disappeared, she sat in the place where the sacred tree originally grew and cried for a long time, the crying was so tragic that the people who rarely went up the mountain did not dare to come up during that time, and they all said that the mountain god was very unstable recently, and she was afraid of accidentally provoking her in vain.

Later, Xiao Tao cried and cried and found that a small bud had grown on the originally empty ground, and the bud emitted an extremely faint light in the dark night, exactly the same as the former sacred tree.

She excitedly told Xia Ye that it must be that she was crying too annoyingly, and the dead divine tree really couldn't stand her, so it grew again. Xia Ye said that it was because her tears dripped on the ground and flowed into the soil, and the divine tree couldn't bear her to be so sad and sad, so it was born again. In fact, it doesn't matter what the reason is, the important thing is that the sacred tree has really grown again. Since then, she has guarded the sacred tree every day, taking good care of it, lest it disappear again if one of them does not pay attention.

The newborn sacred tree is very favored by all the beasts in the forest, there are always some beasts who want to come forward and swallow it into their stomachs, but the weak divine tree has not yet resisted the invasion of the outside world, so she can only rely on Xiao Tao to help her drive away those beasts every day.

Xiao Tao is the lord of all beasts, and these beasts listen to her for everything on weekdays, but on the issue of this sacred tree, she always disobeys the yang and the yin, and secretly approaches when she is not paying attention. Although Xiao He often helps her keep an eye on it, it itself also covets the sacred tree, and often can't stand it and is afraid that he can't help but eat the sacred tree in one bite and hurriedly leaves, so Xiao Tao can only take care of the divine tree by himself.

While caressing a young leaf that had just been born of the sacred tree, she said to Xia Ye beside her, "Did you find Zhuoya when you went down the mountain this time?" ”

"Nope."

"Where the hell have you been......" she muttered to herself.

Xia Ye kept saying that it was a girl named Zhuoya who detoxified her, but why did she always think that she was a boy named Zhuoya? It's weird......

This night, she dreamed of the young man dressed in white, with a butterfly painted on the young man's clothes, and smiled at her warmly and shyly: "Hello Xiao Tao, I am Zhuo Ya, the Ya of the world." ”I954
