"What to do? What to do? Someone's coming to the door. ”

"Damn humans, ah no, there's even a big demon."

"It's okay, Tangtang, thank you for coming to see me......" It was a kind and honest voice.

"Phew! I'm not allowed to say the rest of the words, I'm going to unravel ......"

"Kids, what are you trying to unravel?"

Behind them, Bai Jiu asked with a smile.

The cat demon instantly exploded, blocked in front of a dead tree, and screamed bitterly at Bai Jiu.

"Sugar, don't ...... like that," the honest little tree spirit dissuaded.

Bai Jiu raised his hand slightly, and the cat demon was instantly silenced, and found that his body could not move.

……

Candy, also known as Cindy, is a cute tanuki cat who has only been a sperm for 5 years, and has just been able to speak human language, but she can't transform into a human form yet. She wears a name tag around her neck.

"I'm sorry, Boss Bai, it's a small one who has eyes and doesn't know Taishan, we really didn't mean to."

The cat demon, who was still very hard just now, is now standing upright with his feet, clenching his claws into fists, and begging Bai Jiu for mercy incessantly.

Lin Zuzu felt that this scene was very cute, and inadvertently showed a little smile.

"White ...... Boss Bai, can you spare Tangtang, she's ...... to help me"

The sound came from a dead tree, and the whole tree was described as withered, and it was not even possible to tell what kind of tree it was.

"You...... I'm going to die, little friend. Bai Jiu felt it slightly, and found that the strength of the dryad was already very weak.

"Woo woo, Boss Bai, can you save it, your mana is so strong." Sugar Candy couldn't hold back anymore when she heard this, and began to cry.

Bai Jiu pointed forward, and a white light like a half moon slashed through, and the dead tree was cut off by the waist.

"Ahh I'll fight with you. ”

Tangtang pounced on it, but was frightened by Bai Jiu's squinting eyes, and shrank to the side and whimpered.

Bai Jiu walked slowly to the dead tree, and saw that the trunk was full of holes, and it was actually hollowed out by insects inside and out.

"The heart of the tree has been destroyed, even if the Demon Emperor is here, I am afraid that there is nothing he can do, at most he will be able to survive until dawn today." Bai Jiu shook his head.

"Well, I know it all."

"Big fool, big fool!! Last time your senior came over, you could have asked for help and left, why didn't you leave? ”

"I want to ...... Wait here for them to come back, how many years you want to wait......" The dryad's voice revealed a bit of loneliness.

There are not many dryads in Rize City who can transform into human form, and the words of the predecessors should refer to Wang Shu.

"Why do you still ...... if you become a spirit and turn into a demon" Lin Zuzu was a little unbearable.

"When the acquired demon is just becoming a spirit, in addition to having spiritual intelligence, it is still the same as ordinary animals and plants, and it must follow the laws of nature, and it will also be hunted down by natural enemies, and it is easy to die."

The dryad hasn't moved for years, and the cat demon doesn't seem to have lost its freedom. So......

"Sugar Candy, is it the watch you stole from?"

The cat demon was crying and crying, and when she heard the girl ask, she suddenly became alert.

"Are you going to take the watch with you? No! ”

Sugar Candy "meowed" and quickly disappeared into the darkness, leaving only two green cat's eyes looking at this side.

"Tangtang, you can give it back to others. We can't solve it, can we? ”

"I don't want it! I don't want it! I haven't shown you yet......"

"Sugar Candy!" The dryad sounded a little angry. "How sad should they be that you sneaked out and took your watch?"

"Woooooooooo......oo Big Fool ......"

Sugar Candy finally came out of the darkness with an antique watch in her mouth.

"I remember, the bounty order says that there are memories of the deceased here?" Could it be that it has something to do with it?

"That's the little master." The cat demon said sullenly. "Twenty years ago, when the owner brought me home as a milk cat, this big stupid tree was already here."

"It didn't take long for the masters to give birth to a little master, and when he was a little older, he gave me an English name, but his level was limited, and he got Candy and Cindy wrong."

"But the good times didn't last long, one day, the masters were busy with work, and they all thought that the other party had gone to pick up the little master, and the result was ......"

Sugar Candy started crying again.

"So they got resentful and complained to each other, and eventually one took Sugar Candy and all the photos, and the other took the watch and separated......" The dryad continued.

"I'm here waiting, waiting...... Thought I could wait until the day they came back...... It's a pity that my useless body ......"

"For so many years, Tangtang would always come to visit me from time to time, until recently she found out about my situation, and as a result, her brain was hot...... I want to take another look at the memories of the past, but it's a pity that the ban on the watch can only be opened by blood relatives. ”

The dryad's voice grew lower and lower, gradually turning into a sigh.

"Guys, I have an idea."

In such a low atmosphere, Lin Zuzu said loudly.

***

Why do bounty missions come to such a gloomy place in the middle of the night?

Xu Xinzhao held the steering wheel with some trembling tremors, drove the car into an unknown alley, and finally stopped outside a gloomy single-family courtyard.

He noticed that a car had been parked there, and there was a tall figure standing next to it.

"You just stay in the car." An indifferent old lady in the passenger seat spoke.

"Mom, I'm ......" Before Xu Xin finished speaking, the old lady opened the door and got out of the car.

The tall figure was also taken aback when he saw someone coming.

"Long time no see." This is a very spiritual old man.

"Why are you here?" The old lady frowned slightly.

At this moment, a faint light came out of the empty courtyard gate, as if to welcome their arrival.

"It seems that if you don't go in, you won't know ......"

The old lady ignored him, pushed open the door without hesitation and went in, and the old man reluctantly followed.

The glimmer of light grew stronger, and the two of them closed their eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, where there was still a dark and ghostly courtyard, it was clearly a beautiful courtyard with bright and warm spring flowers in front of me.

Beside the fluffy turf, small flowerbeds full of flowers, and lush plane trees, a cute tanuki cat squatted with a delicate antique watch beside it.

"Ah, Cindy."

The old lady snorted softly and stretched out her hand to Tangtang, but found that her voice was not quite right, and at the same time, there was also the white plain hand that was imprinted in her eyes.

"Fangya, this is ......"

The old man saw that his former lover had become what he was when he was young, so he quickly took out his mobile phone and saw his young and handsome self through the screen.

"Great, you're finally back." A gentle voice rang out out of thin air.

"Who's talking?" Zhao Xiaojun raised his head nervously and looked around, but he couldn't see a third person.

"Stupid human! Woooooooooooooooo The tanuki cat suddenly spat out and wiped tears with its paws.

“Cindy？ You...... Can you speak? Zhao Xiaojun said in surprise.

"Have you ever seen a cat live for more than thirty years? I'm a cat demon, a cat demon! ”

Xu Yafang picked up Cindy as if nothing had happened, and walked out of the courtyard.

"No way!" Sugar Candy broke free of that embrace and jumped back to her watch. "Sycamore it...... It's almost gone. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaojun moved his gaze to the lush plane tree.

"Is that you? Old man. ”

Suddenly, there was a pain in his hand, and it was Tangtang who scratched his hand.

"Hurry up and lift the ban." Sugar Candy yelled at him.

Zhao Xiaojun reacted, picked up the watch and placed it on the wound, feeling the rune stone of the power of the blood relatives glow.

This is the last time......

In his silent sigh, a dazzling light enveloped all present.
