There is a sentence in the "Zhuangzi" that says: "Zi Fei Yu knows the joy of fish?" This sentence clearly indicates the separation between people and things. Now I'm a tree, so I know what a tree is.

I have roots in the ground, branches and leaves on the ground, bathed in the sun, and purified the air. I thought it would be nice and happy to live like this, until I saw a woodcutter come to me.

He looked me up and down, then pulled an axe from behind his back and tried to chop down the tree!

It scared me to death - I'm a human being! What if I just died so inexplicably? I wanted to run but couldn't run, I couldn't make a sound when I wanted to speak, and at this critical moment, the black tree spirit magic expired in time, and I changed back into human form!

The woodcutter was about to cut down the tree, when he saw me change back into human form, and was so frightened that he cried out, "There are youkai!" and threw down his axe, and ran away without looking back.

"It's so dangerous!" I couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat that broke out on my forehead with my hand, and thought to myself: "It seems that it is better to be a man, and this tree will die if you say you die." ”

I thought of the Black Dryad's words again, and I felt that from the perspective of the tree, his words were not unreasonable. I turned my head again, and I was like, "Hey, where is the black dryad?" Why is he gone?—— he left me here alone!

"This can't work, I still have to go to the Demon Realm!" I thought to myself, "This time, if they dare to stop me again, I'll cut out their demon spirits!" So I turned back to the Demon Realm and came to the end of the Dryad Quagmire.

I came to the forest where the dryad was, and strangely enough, there was a dead silence now, all the trees were dead and completely lifeless, which even made me wonder if what I had just experienced was true.

I looked at the dead trees, and thought to myself, since they didn't make any monsters, I didn't have to kill them all, so I walked on, and in a short time I walked through the dead forest.

As the dead trees became fewer and fewer, a desert appeared in front of me.

"Is this what they call the Red Fox Desert?" I thought to myself.

As the name suggests, there should be a fox demon living in this desert. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but secretly strengthen my guard and walked forward.

There seems to be no end to this desert, and I can't see the end anyway. I was thirsty and tired from climbing a big sand dune, and then I remembered how nice it would be if I could ride the wind, and I could fly over this barren land in an instant!

I was fantasizing when I suddenly heard movement behind me, and when I looked back, I couldn't help but be startled! I saw a yellow sand rolling in, as if something was hiding in the sand and was rushing towards me!

When I saw that I didn't dare to slack off, I hurriedly stretched out my right hand, and gave birth to a wind knife, and waited for it.

The yellow sand rushed in front of me, and sure enough, a monster jumped out of the sand!

I looked at it and saw it - a black head, a black body, a black tail, and two green eyes with a ghostly light! The most vicious thing is that there are two big turtles on its mouth, which are a bit like ants, but they are much more than ants!

The monster arched out of the sand in front of me, and without saying a word, waved the pair of big crows and caught me!

I knew that if it caught me, the next step would be *me, and turn me into his snack!

So I swung the wind knife and slashed right at it!

"Whew!" the monster screamed and fell, its body split in half by me, and green blood flowed out!

I thought to myself, "I don't know what kind of monster this is?" I was staring at its corpse when I suddenly heard movement behind me, and when I looked back, I saw dozens of yellow sand rolling in!

Based on the experience I just had, I concluded that this kind of monster is attacking again, but there are more of them.

Sure enough, the yellow sand rolled in front of me, and then out of the sand arched this black monster, and the man stood in front of me, and opened his two big hoots and caught me!

Thinking that it was easy to kill this monster just now, I was not afraid, one by one, and quickly eliminated them, only to see the demon spirits flying all over the sky, and the corpse of the monster flowing with green blood on the sand!

"It's a pity they can't speak," I thought, "or I would have known what kind of youkai it was." ”

Seeing that there were no more monsters, I put away my wind knife and walked forward.

Although there are no more such monsters, my eyes have been sweeping the desert, and I am worried that they will suddenly sneak up on me.

Before I knew it, I was walking into a valley of sand. I was watching for the same kind of monster coming at me from the sand, when suddenly I felt a tremor in the desert beneath my feet, and then a huge suction force was about to suck me into the sand!

Oh no! I screamed in my heart! I hurriedly leaped high into the air with a flash of divine light! In an instant, a large mouth reached out from the sand valley under my feet, full of two rows of steel teeth, and bit at me with all its might!

Thankfully, I reacted quickly and jumped high!", and the big mouth bit into the air, and then sank into the sand!

I landed on the sand, frightened, and thought, "What kind of monster is this?" If I hadn't reacted quickly, it would have been its stomach by now. ”

So I began to watch my step, taking one step at a time, lest some monster emerge from the ground.

After walking through a sand dune, I came to a sand valley again, and I had just come to the valley when the familiar tremor struck again!

Sure enough, a big mouth came out from under the sand and bit me hard!

I landed on the sand and began to ponder: "Judging by the shape of this mouth, this is definitely a huge monster, so it can't move as fast as the youkai in front of it in the sand." "I looked at the terrain again, and remembered what had just happened, so I concluded that this large-mouthed monster probably lived only in the valley of sand, and that they were probably too lazy to move, and only waited quietly in the valley, and if any other creature entered the valley, they would just open their mouths and bite hard. However, they met me today, and they were going hungry.

To test my thoughts, I climbed a sand dune and looked around, and sure enough, I found another sand valley, so I cautiously walked in.

"Hula-la!" the sand trembled! I knew that the big-mouthed monster was about to appear again, and hurriedly made another move! In order to find out what this monster looked like, I stretched out my right hand in the air, and gave birth to a wind knife!
