Maybe decades, maybe hundreds of years, I woke up again, and then I found myself living in a huge village. When people saw me wake up, they immediately became bustling, and there was no longer the same order as when the old patriarch was there.

But it didn't matter to me, now, I was hungry, so I slowly crawled out of the village, and now their house is much stronger, and I climbed out of the village, only to shake off a few small stones.

Walking around, I noticed that the number of elephants had decreased, but they had grown a lot in size, and there were a few that seemed to be exuding demonic energy. Grandpa Shu once said that those animals that exude demonic energy should not be eaten, because they are potential animals and may cultivate to become a demon clan, so they can't eat them. Anyway, I haven't visited Grandpa Tree for a long time, so after eating, I'll go visit Grandpa Tree.

So I found an elephant that had no demonic energy on it, and the old rule was to entangle it first, then inject venom, and slowly swallow it into its stomach for flesh and bone separation. Then I slowly climbed to Grandpa Tree.

Grandpa Tree was easy to find, the largest one in the woods, but now he had only the main trunk and a few dead branches left, while the surrounding woods were lush and green, and the two were in stark contrast. I asked suspiciously, "Grandpa Shu, aren't you a demon?" Why are you still old? ”

Grandpa Tree said, "Ah! It turned out to be a minibus snake! What did you just say? I replied, "I mean, why are you dry?" Grandpa Shu said: "Oh、、、、、、, so that's the case, some time ago, there was a big drought here, and I had to consume my own longevity to control the nutrients and water of this land. ”

"So, your longevity is just consumed?" I had a terrible feeling in my heart for some reason. Grandpa Shu said: "Don't be sad, little snake, it's good that you're here, I have something I want you to help with." ”

I said, "What's the matter?" Grandpa Tree said: "I was born in this land, so my responsibility is to protect this land, but my longevity is about to end, and I can no longer protect this land, but I have a granddaughter, is a plum blossom tree that has been cultivated for three hundred years, after I die, this land will only be you, the spirit snake who has been cultivating for more than five hundred years, is considered a demon with cultivation, I hope you take my granddaughter to cultivate until she can protect this land." ”

I nodded and said, "So where is she?" Grandpa Shu said: "I will use my last mana to send her to your Ba Shan Village, you tell those people not to be surprised." I nodded.

So, Grandpa Tree stretched out the branches and exerted its mana, at this time, the earth shook for a while, and then Grandpa Tree's breath of life also disappeared. I climbed back to the cottage, where a group of people gathered around a plum tree that had just appeared, still holding torches in their hands.

I yelled, and when people saw me, they immediately separated and stood up. Then I crawled back to where I was sleeping, and for the first time said in a language that I was not accustomed to: "Mortals, this little plum tree is the granddaughter of the god of the woods, and the god of the woods has exhausted his life in order to protect you from drought, and before he dies he asked me to bring up the future god of the woods, which is this plum tree god, so you must protect her until she grows up." ”

The reason why I say this is because anyway, for these humans, we demons are almost like gods, and Grandpa Tree did die for their contributions, even if he was given the title of an old tree god.

Sure enough, a man in the prime of life immediately took the lead and said, "Yes! Follow the teachings of the god Ba, and we will take good care of the little tree god. "As soon as I saw that this person was holding the elephant bone staff of the patriarch in his hand, I immediately knew that this person should be the current patriarch.

I can't help but sigh that mortal life is so fragile, and as soon as I close my eyes and open them, their whole lives will pass like this. The mortals set up a fire in front of me again, and then danced the sacrificial dance. However, I found that the sacrificial dance had improved a lot, and the girls who danced in the middle were the best, and they were wearing the skin that I had shed while I was sleeping.

After the girls who danced the sacrificial dance dispersed, the girl who danced best went to the cave I had opened before I went to bed last time, and the houses built there were much more beautiful than the ones outside, and even better than the best houses in the stockade.

After that, every day, the girl would run to my altar to pray, and I would occasionally talk to her, but my voice was too loud, so in order not to scare the others, I used my mental power to communicate directly with the girl's consciousness.

The first time we communicated, the girl's expression was so hilarious. At first, she was startled, her head swayed from side to side, as if she was looking for someone to talk to her, but then she realized that the person she was talking to was me, so the expression of surprise, joy, and doubt on her face was all written on her face.

I looked at it and wanted to laugh, but the little red plum next to me also trembled. Later, Xiao Hongmei also learned to use her mental power to talk, so a few of us talked often, but in the eyes of others, she was the only one talking to herself, and I always looked at her with interest.

One day, I suddenly remembered that everyone has their own name, and I don't know what the name of this little girl is. So I asked, "Little girl, what's your name?" The little girl immediately said angrily: "Ba God, how can you be like this, I have said it a long time ago, don't call me little girl, I am your witch 、、、、、、"

I yawned and said, "Okay! All right! Little witch, I'm really curious, what's your name? The little witch said, "All right! Ba God, I'll tell you, my name is Xiaoshang. ”

At this time, Xiaoshang tilted her head and said, "Ba Shen, then what is your name?" I also tilted my head and thought for a while, and said, "Doesn't everyone call me Ba Shen?" ”

Xiaoshang said: "That's different! Ba God is what everyone calls you, not your name! I thought about it for a moment, and the snake rolled its eyes a few times and said, "Hmm! Then, in the future, my name will be Ba Snake. ”

Suddenly, Xiaoshang smiled weirdly and said, "Ba Shen, can you take me out to play." I wondered, "Aren't you outside?" Xiaoshang said: "No, I want to go out of the village to play, since I was four years old, my father has not allowed me to go out of the village." ”

I laughed and said, "It's pitiful! Well, in a few days, I'll spit out the elephant's bones and I'll take you out to play. Xiao Shang immediately jumped up happily, and the other passers-by looked at Xiao Shang suspiciously, Xiao Shang stuck out his tongue at me, and said, "Then I will go and tell my father first, and let him prepare to forge elephant bones." ”

I was puzzled and said, "Why, don't you usually use elephant bones as weapons?" So why are there so many fewer elephants in the forest? Xiao Shang said: "Those elephants can't do it, I don't know why, only the elephant bones you spit out can be forged by flames, and the other elephant bones can be easily burned to ashes." ”

I was amazed and said, "Is there such a thing?" Xiao Shang touched her head and said, "I don't know if it's true, but I heard from the witches of the previous generation that when everyone used the bones you spit out to refine things, there was something flowing out of the bones, and then wrapped in the elephant bones, you can forge very powerful weapons." ”

I was a little curious, so I said, "Go and tell your father!" I'm going to find out why. So I closed my eyes and used my mental strength to probe the elephant bone in my stomach.
