Chapter 1008 The Demon Seed is Natural (42)
At this time, the dazzling sunlight hit my body, and it seemed that it was not as warm as before.
There was no movement in Zhou Ye. The little green snake that usually stayed quietly in her arms slowly crawled out and finally stopped on her shoulder.
The ice and snow melted right next to my ears, and the disaster was over.
A living life was lost, and a tree that had grown for hundreds of thousands of years was lost.
People in the village said that it was the tree fairy who sacrificed himself to protect the peace of the village.
Indeed.
After the snow stopped, the trees were broken, and everything returned to its former peace.
The huge tree crown is placed in front of the yard. People who come and go can always think of the lush tree in the past. Now there is only a huge wooden pile left in the yard, with traces of fracture in the middle. Somewhat terrifying.
Zhou Ye picked up all the broken branches that fell on the ground.
Grandpa doesn't stop her from doing something, and will help the child collect the fallen branches in the corner.
"If these branches are not treated, they will dry up and rot sooner or later. Grandpa will make it fun for you, okay?"
Zhou Ye’s little wooden horse, little slingshot, and the pair of little golden bells on his feet were all made by his grandfather.
This time Zhou Ye did not refuse.
She didn't want to watch them rot before her eyes.
"Also, the same goes for the ones outside the yard. If you keep them there, you can only watch them dry up day by day, and finally break when the wind blows. How about you and grandpa transport them to the back mountain? There are trees all over there, and if you put it there, you can give it a good death.”
Grandpa knew where Zhou Ye’s stubbornness came from.
No one in the village liked the tree more than she did.
When he was younger, this baby could not walk yet, so he grew up playing under this tree. The petals on the ground were very soft, so grandpa didn’t have to worry about her getting bumped. The tree had spirit, and the toddler Ono had never been hurt at all in so long.
This can be regarded as a kind of fate.
Especially after Ono was sent to this home, the flowers from this tree became more lush and beautiful than in previous years.
Now that the tree is gone, Grandpa is very distressed, and he is even more worried about Xiaoye.
In this way, the grandfather and grandson split the branches bit by bit and carried them away, leaving the ones with better shapes.
They spent the next winter doing this.
There were many more tables, chairs, and benches in the house. Zhou Ye also got a different bed, as well as a small table and stools in front of the window. These were all gifts left to her by the Linghua tree.
——
The little green snake seems to have grown up a lot. It used to be only as thick as a finger, but now it is almost as thick as Zhou Ye's arm.
Grandpa looked worried.
Because this snake looks a little different from ordinary snakes.
A pair of eyes stares at you quietly, as if it can talk. It can hang on Zhou Ye motionless all day long. Sometimes when the grandfather and grandson are eating, it will slowly crawl down, not knowing where it is going. Anyway, one time when grandpa came back from outside, he happened to meet this green snake coming home.
It stopped at the door and looked at the old man, and nodded slightly with its head held high. The old man was dumbfounded and nodded at it out of nowhere.
Seeing how spiritual the snake was, Grandpa didn't stop anything.
Xiao Tao, who lives next door, is sick and lies in bed all day long, with a small face as pale as paper.
Xiaoye had no friends to play with, but with this snake, his granddaughter would not have a boring life alone.
