Chapter 93: The Unexpected (1)
"Then why did you take away their pen, ink, paper, and inkstone?" Ziling asked.
The tree waved its trunk and dropped many charms from it, "You can see that every spell on it prevents me from absorbing nutrients, and I make them learn a lesson for every person who dies, but they don't seem to have it, but they get worse."
Ziling couldn't understand that if according to Dashu, these farmers knew about the origin of Dashu, but why didn't any of them mention this when they did their own investigation?
"We're here to investigate this matter, but why haven't any farmers told us about you?" Ziling asked.
Dashu sneered, "Hehe, of course they don't dare to mention me, they know it best in their hearts, but they just want to mess with you, in fact, they are very scared in their hearts, even if they lock the door every night, but they can't stop me, I have to dig out their hearts for everyone to see ......"
Ziling suddenly felt very sorry for this big tree, and the big tree shared the crops of the farmers with its own nutrients, but it did not get the due results, but injured herself.....
"I can understand you, it's really wrong for farmers to do this, I came from the demon world to the human world only to find that there are many things that are different, many people are just for the benefit of their eyes, they can do whatever it takes, and in the end they often end up with results that we don't want to see......." Ziling recalled the scenes that had just come to the human world, as if they were all in front of her.
"You're from the Demon Realm?"
Ziling nodded, "Yes! I escaped from my father with great difficulty, just to see what the world was like."
When he heard the words of the girl in front of him, Dashu asked, "Then your father is the Holy Lord of the White House?" ”。
"Yes, you know my father?".
"I know that the demon world is where we belong, but I have been deeply rooted in this land, and I can no longer pull it out, I have no way to go to the place I yearn for, I can only stay in this cold land."
Ziling took out a small white bottle from her sleeve, "This is a pill that my father gave me before I left, if you really want to go to the demon world with me, take this pill, you can enter this bottle, and take you back when I return to the demon world."
"Are you telling the truth? Can I really go to the Demon Realm with you? ”。
"Of course it's true, but there is one more thing that has not been completed before leaving, although you have killed so many people for a reason, I can understand you, but those people may not be able to understand you, I think I still need an apology" Ziling said.
The big tree remembered the scene he had suffered before, and it was their deserve to dig out their hearts, if they hadn't been greedy and absorbed their own nutrients, they wouldn't have caused today's scene, all of this was their own doing, if they really wanted to apologize to them, this kind of thing would not be able to say.
"Everything is the result of their infliction, they should eat it themselves, I can't apologize! There's nothing wrong with me! "If the tree hadn't learned to save itself, I'm afraid it would have died on this wasteland........
Ziling can understand the hardships of the big tree, and can also understand the meaning of the fertile land that the old farmers said at that time, the fertile land they refer to is just competing with the big tree to absorb nutrients, before that, the big tree is to share the nutrients with them, but the more time passes, the sharing of nutrients becomes a matter of course, no one will remember that the tree was distributed to those crops from their own nutrients, and those who were dug out of their hearts are also to blame.
"I know you're in a lot of pain, but if you can't make a conclusion to this matter, I'm afraid you won't be able to untie this knot in your life, I'll go back and tell them again, let the remaining farmers apologize to you, and you can admit your mistake and go back to the demon world with me, okay?" Ziling said.
The big tree didn't speak, and Ziling left.
Ziling knows the truth of the facts, but she can believe this kind of words, what if she were someone else, would she think that she was making up a story? I can't care so much about it, no matter whether they believe it or not, they must be asked to admit their mistakes to the big tree, maybe if the big tree had a tougher attitude at the beginning, then it would not have caused today's result......
After going back, he explained the matter to Shangguan Wei, "What you said is true?" But the tree has killed so many people, why do you want to tell you this if you want to continue to survive? ”。
"Maybe this has something to do with the fact that we are all in the demon world, I can understand the hardships in his heart, and when this matter is over, I will take him back to the demon world, where he yearns for" Ziling said.
So a few people gathered all the remaining farmers, this matter should be settled, and Ziling should take the lead in communicating with these farmers.
"Farmers, we already know the truth of the facts, you don't need to hide it from us, if you really want to be good for yourself and the people around you, then please listen to my following words: the big tree is not stingy to absorb a little nutrient from the crops for the survival of all of you, but after a long time, this cannot be taken for granted, if you don't want to affect more people, you should apologize to the big tree!" Ziling said in front of the farmers.
But when I said these words, I thought it would have the desired effect, but I didn't expect that a few of the farmers among them began to mumble below......
"That big tree killed so many of us, why should we apologize to him?".
"Yes, the nutrients in the land were also given by the tree on its own initiative, and it was not we who asked him or forced him, why is it all our fault now?"
"If you want to apologize, you have to apologize first!"
Ziling couldn't understand, since things had developed to this point, why didn't these people dare to stand up and apologize? Is it really just fear? But last night, the big tree looked like such vicissitudes, and my heart must be full of grievances, do you really want to knock out your teeth and swallow it in your stomach? No way! If others don't think about it from the perspective of the tree, then forget it, and I will definitely stand firmly on the position of the tree!!
"If you want to kill more people, don't blame me for not warning you! The big tree is not without discussion, but if you want to take the life of the big tree first, I will be the first to stand up and not agree, don't forget to draught and don't forget to dig the well, if there is no big tree, will your village be where it will be today? Ziling didn't want to say anything more, if these people were really stubborn, no matter what they said, it would be bad.
Shangguan Weiming saw such a powerful and domineering Ziling for the first time, this task was originally given to him, how could he let her complete it first, fate is really indescribable, and now standing next to her, looking at her seems to feel a kind of happiness.
"You're not making up a story, are you? How can a big tree speak? Murong Huantao said on the side.
When Ziling heard this, she was furious and showed her sharp teeth, "If you don't believe it, let him dig out your heart and take a look!" Do you dare? ”。
Murong Huantao immediately hid behind Shangguan Weiming, "Oh, Shangguan Gongzi, you must protect me, this princess of the demon clan is not pleasing to me at first glance, but you promised your aunt!" ”。
Shangguan Weiming had no choice but to say next to him: "Don't worry, she won't eat you."
Ziling didn't want to continue to deal with these farmers, and finally understood the hardships of adults, it was really not easy to face so many troublemakers.
But after a few hours, the farmers came to the door......
"Miss Ziling, we are indeed very ashamed of what you just said, we should not have taken up so many nutrients from the tree, and asked the Taoist priest to put a charm on the tree, it is indeed our mistake, we know that it is wrong," said one of the farmers.
When Ziling heard the words of the farmer in front of her, she didn't turn around, just picked up a cup of tea beside her, took a sip, and then asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”。
The farmer hesitated for a few seconds, looked back at the farmers standing behind him, and said: "We have already thought about it, we will never take any more nutrients from the tree, we will move out of this village now, we will not cause any more trouble to the tree, before leaving, we will apologize to the tree and show our previous apology."
Ziling put the teacup on the table and turned her head, "Is this true?" ”。
"Of course it's true, we figured it out."
"In that case, I'll take you to see the big tree now, and if you have anything to say, let's meet and say it yourself!" Ziling said.
So Ziling led the farmers to the front of the big tree, "Big tree, I brought them, they have something to say to you, you just listen."
I saw a farmer trembling and walked over, "Big tree, there are really a lot of places that can't stand you before, you are so good to us but we will take revenge, we don't blame you for digging out so many people's hearts, all this is the retribution we deserve, we have not realized before, we have taken habit for granted, until today this girl said that we have reflected and understood, in the future, we will not occupy any of your land here, and return all the nutrients to you, I apologize to you here, and I hope you will forgive us, after which we will move out of this village."
Perhaps Dashu didn't expect that a farmer would apologize to him, and looked at Ziling standing next to him, "You really figured it out?" ”。
"I really figured it out, we shouldn't be so greedy, and we have to eat the evil fruits we planted in the end, we really can't stand you," said the farmer.
The people present thought that the big tree would take this opportunity to make a request, but the big tree didn't, "You don't have to leave this village, all the nutrients of this land will be given to you, I want to leave this world and go to the demon world I yearn for, I miss the time when you first came to this village, I was used to being alone before, after you came, I got used to it, if that didn't happen, maybe we could still be here in harmony, but now I'm going to leave with the princess, and the nutrients of this land will be given to you."
Ziling originally knew that Dashu was a kind-hearted person, and if he could make such a move, he was just forced to be in a hurry, and a dying person couldn't do anything......
"The big tree means that you don't have to leave this village, but you have to get rid of your old bad habits!" Ziling said.
So the big tree took the pill and got into the bottle....
"Thank you, on behalf of all the farmers, thank you," one of the farmers bowed, clasping his hands together.
Ziling put away her white bottle and saw a gentle look in the eyes next to her.
