After everyone retreated, Jie said bluntly: "You're not young, you should have heard a lot of rumors, so have you ever heard of such a thing as a god tree?" ”

"Mikamiki!" The old man frowned, touched his chin and recalled for a while, then shook his head and said: "The old man has lived so big, I have never heard of the words Yushenmu, judging from the name, is this a tree?" Are there any peculiar specials? ”

Jie bowed slightly: "That's right, it's a tree, if you have characteristics, it's very tall and long." ”

The old man frowned again and pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "This kind of tree is very common in the surrounding forests, and the old man doesn't know which one the adults are looking for?" I'll list them for you one by one, right? ”

Jie waved his hand: "No need." ”

The information provided by the old man was completely meaningless, as a sacred tree, the Imperial Sacred Tree would not grow with other trees.

If it was a strange place with no other trees, it might be possible, but a forest full of trees would be too unlikely.

"I'll change the question, have you heard of Tsuiko?" Sukew asked again.

The old man nodded without hesitation: "That's a famous witch, how could the old man not have heard of it, speaking of which, that legendary big man came to our place a long time ago." ”

"It's a pity that she didn't stay here for long, it is rumored that she only stayed for a few days, and helped us get rid of some of the monsters that had caused trouble in the nearby village, and then left, otherwise, if there is a shrine maiden to pass it on, the village may not be so bullied by some rats."

As he spoke, the old man shook his head with emotion.

Mind eyes moved: "Is it just a demon removal?" Is there anything else that is going on? Or was there anything big going on here? ”

"Big deal!" The old man touched it again, thinking about it.

After a long time, he shook his head and said, "If it's a big event, this year's rat infestation should be the biggest thing, and I don't seem to have heard of anything else." ”

Jie said with a little disappointment: "Is there anything about Cuizi, not a single one?" ”

The old man shook his head decisively: "No! As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, and his eyes flashed and he said, "Hey, wait, there seems to be a ..........." ”

"It is said that a long time ago, the witch Tsuiko defeated a big monster in the Xuanfeng Forest, but because the opponent's strength was too strong, she couldn't eradicate it, so she had to seal it in the canyon of the mountain behind the Xuanfeng Forest."

"This is a rumor a long time ago, or my grandfather told me, when his grandfather was still alive, the mountain behind Xuanfeng Forest was a forbidden place, and people in the village were not allowed to approach, but in his generation, there were also some food shortages in the village, and the villagers had to go farther away to hunt."

"At that time, the Xuanfeng Forest was uninhabited for a long time, and there were many prey, and many people had entered there to hunt, but after a long time, they did not find any special places, and everyone gradually forgot about it."

"It's a pity, that was a hundred years ago, and the current Xuanfeng Forest is also .............." The old man shook his head, sighed again, and did not continue.

Behind the Xuanfeng Forest! Thinking about it for a while, Jie bowed his head slightly and said: "In fact, food is such a thing, when there is surplus food, you should take it out and replace it as soon as possible, even if it takes time and effort to replace it will reduce its value, it is better than keeping it in your hands all the time." ”

The old man sighed: "My lord, you don't know, in fact, we do this kind of thing every year, exchange food for some general things and pile them at home, in case of any disaster, we can also take it out for emergency." ”

"The reason why the reserves are insufficient this year is because the snow came too suddenly and too much, the mountain roads were completely blocked by heavy snow, and there was no way to transport the grain, and it happened to catch up with the rat infestation, so it was .........."

"I see, I'll help you clear the blocked road later, and now I'll go and distribute food to everyone first."

Hearing this, the old man bowed gratefully again.

As for whether such a large area of snow can be cleared for them, the old man has never considered this, and he is no different from a god in his eyes at this time.

After coming to the village, he found a vacant space not far from the village chief's house, gathered everyone, and then under the expectant gaze of everyone, the spiritual power was concretized, and countless steamed buns began to fall from the sky like raindrops.

After a while, a mountain formed by steamed buns appeared in the clearing.

Unlike when they first met, this time everyone politely stopped in place and waited quietly for the casting of the spell to be completed and distributed by the village.

After creating the steamed buns, Jie Youyou made a part of the chicken, duck and fish meat, which was regarded as a little soup and delicacies for the dry steamed buns.

If it weren't for the fact that it was winter, Jie would have planned to get some vegetables or something out for these people to grow.

It is precisely because of the winter that most of the steamed buns are made, because this thing is easy to preserve, after all, there are still spring and summer seasons to pass, whether the steamed bread is frozen in the snow, or baked and dried in the storeroom, it can withstand storage.

After the food was served, Jie did not break his promise, and provided some more vegetables for the villagers who were the first to block the carriage road on the path.

Even if they are a small reward for distributing steamed buns to the villagers, it is unclear whether they can cultivate them in the winter, but they are sure that they will never enjoy them as food, and they will definitely plant them with the idea of giving it a try.

After doing all this, under the grateful eyes of everyone, Jie and his party slowly walked from the carriage at the entrance of the village.

However, just as he was approaching the entrance of the village, he turned his head a little strangely to look at a boy in the crowd who was writing and drawing with a small wooden board: "What are you doing?" ”

Seeing that Sukeke noticed him, the boy stared at him with wide eyes and said excitedly, "I'm painting a portrait of the gods, because the village chief's grandfather said that he would erect a statue for you to worship you." ”

Hearing this, Jie glanced at everyone strangely, and ushered in everyone's kneeling again.

Seeing this, he smiled, nodded lightly at everyone, and returned to the carriage with the three girls, and soared into the air to the neighing of the horses, and flew towards the Xuanfeng Forest provided by the village.

In the carriage, looking at the people who were still kneeling on the ground in the distance, Zizi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It turns out that this is the gods, the evil ones retreat, the good ones worship, and everywhere you go, you will usher in hope and dawn." ”

Hearing this, Yukiko's eyes flashed, stared at her back a few times, and then quietly looked at Shisuke, pursed her lips, and buried her head.

Mind indifferent smiled: "What a god, if your ability is strong enough, you also have the opportunity to be a god, that thing is actually just a deceptive thing at first, but then there are more people who believe in it, and naturally it will slowly come true." ”

Yukiko's face darkened, and she buried her head lower.

And Zizi didn't notice the change in the teacher at all, she didn't choose to say: "Liar! Doesn't that mean that the existence of gods is a mistake at all? ”

Jie shook his head: "Of course not, how can the existence of blessings be wrong, forget it, you don't understand it after telling you, you will understand one day in the future." ”
