There is a small squirrel jumping around among the intricate branches.

"Is this it? Grandpa Tree? The squirrel began to scratch the bark with its two little paws.

"Huh! This is it! The big tree said with relief, "Use some more force...... Right...... Comfortable...... Thank you! ”

"No thanks, Grandpa Tree."

"You're tickling, but it's much more comfortable than your dad." The tree said, "Your father is so strong that he once scratched the bark of a tree for me!" But the most comfortable thing to tickle should be your father's father......"

"Grandpa Tree, do you still know my father's father?"

"Of course!" The tree said proudly, "Not only your father's father, but also your grandfather's grandfather, I know your family!" ”

"Really?"

"Of course, your grandfather's grandfather grew up on me little by little!"

"Huh? How long ago was that? ”

"It's been a long, long time! I was the first tree here, your grandfather's grandfather, the first squirrel to live on me. ”

The little squirrel ran under the tree to play, and the tree looked at the many little black dots jumping around at its feet, and then looked into the distance.

The highest branch finally sank slightly, and the tree said, "Are you back?" ”

"Humanity is coming!"

Soon after, a team of humans arrived here.

The tree is of great interest to the legendary humans.

They put a lot of strange things on the ground. The bird said to the tree, "That's the pot, that's the axe." And what they wear, called clothes, with which they change their color. ”

At night, humans light a bonfire under a big tree, hold hands, sing and dance.

Humans are very smart, and they know that the big tree is the most special life here, which makes the big tree proud.

Someone stood in front of the crowd and shouted, "This is the tallest tree here, the owner of this land!" We must fear Him, we must not harm Him and the creatures in Him, we give Him love, and He will give back protection, otherwise, disaster will befall you! ”

Humans cut down many trees around them and made them into houses and furniture. They also hunted small animals in the neighborhood, made their fur into clothing, and roasted meat over the fire for food.

There are fewer and fewer trees and small animals nearby, but the trees still like humans, because humans have never hurt themselves, and they have hung many red cloth strips on themselves, and when the wind blows, they shake not only the leaves, but also the fluttering red, which is very beautiful.

"Grandpa Tree, humans have killed a lot of my friends." Little Squirrel Road.

"Ah, don't worry, you live on me, they won't hurt you." Big Tree said.

"But I'm running out of friends."

"You can ask your friends to live on me too, and I'll protect them."

As a result, almost all the small animals that were still alive in the neighborhood moved to the big trees.

"Humanity will keep its promises." Big Tree thought.

Soon there was only one tree left nearby, reminding the tree of a time long ago.

"There weren't so many lives with me, and there weren't any humans."

I don't know how long it has been since humans have built a lively village centered on the big trees.

The first humans to come here have been laid to rest underground.

The new humans still keep their promise and never harm the trees and the life on them. They only occasionally wonder, "How can there be rabbits living in the trees?" ”

Not only rabbits, but also many animals living in the trees, and they are happy to climb around the trees, looking at the humans around them, but they are not afraid, because they know that the trees will protect them.

"That's a good life, isn't it?" The tree asks the bird.

"It's a good thing for you, humans and animals regard you as a protector, and as a tree, you should be the pinnacle of your tree." The bird said.

"What about you?"

"I can't be satisfied, as a bird, my mission is not over."

"How long are you going to fly?"

"When I want to stop."
