Chapter 1013 Demon Seed is Natural (47)
A dim light swayed quietly in the room.
The little boy looked at the room, then walked to the opposite wall, raised his hand, and knocked lightly on the wall.
Soon, a slightly impatient voice came from the partition wall.
"What?"
When Xiaotao heard this, her eyes curled up.
"Nothing, I want to know if you slept."
"Sleep."
"Ono, next year we will be three thousand years old."
For people in the village, the longest period of their lives is middle age.
Adults reach adulthood at 5,000 years old, enter middle age at 10,000 years old, and enter old age at 35,000 years old.
This is a tradition passed down from generation to generation.
A child can start a family at four thousand years old. The next generation of children can be born at five thousand years old. If it is later, it can be delayed until ten thousand or twenty thousand years old.
Zhou Ye was sent back by the Zhou family's son when he was more than 20,000 years old.
Most people can see five generations living under the same roof, even six or seven generations.
But because grandpa passed away late, he may not wait until Zhou Ye reaches adulthood before he passes away.
So when Xiao Tao mentioned her age, there was silence on the other side of the wall for a long time.
Three thousand years old.
In the village, it is the age to get engaged.
If they don't move away, everyone is sure that Xiao Tao and Xiao Ye will definitely form a new family in the future.
After all, the two families live next to each other and the two children have a good relationship. There is no more suitable couple in the village.
But now everything has changed.
Most people have left the village.
Including Xiaotao’s parents.
After they settle down, they will definitely come back to pick up Xiao Tao.
After going to a wider world, the childhood sweetheart routine no longer works. Grandpa knew that he was getting old, so after everyone left, he asked Zhou Ye if he wanted to leave with Xiaotao's family.
The little girl said nothing, the expression on her face said everything.
The grandfather, who understood his granddaughter's temperament, said nothing.
An inexplicable loneliness has spread in this family, and grandpa will always sigh silently in places where no one is around. Zhou Ye knows that all this stems from her growing up and grandpa getting old.
All night long, there was no sound in the house.
Xiaotao was lying on the bed, and a dark figure passed by the window.
It stopped outside the window and looked at the people inside.
"Hypocritical people are used to acting."
came the voice.
The person on the bed slowly opened his eyes and looked at the high beams above his head. There was no luster in his eyes.
Qinglong came in through the window, staring coldly at the frail and delicate young man in front of him with his narrow pupils, speaking human words with an extremely cold voice.
"You completely devoured his soul."
The young man's expression was calm, and his pair of light eyes quietly looked at the green dragon wrapped around the beam.
over time.
Its growth rate has far exceeded that of ordinary snakes. Sooner or later, Zhou Ye will find out what kind of thing he has adopted.
"I would like to advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
"Her business is my business!"
Qinglong's voice was mixed with sullenness, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes as he stared at the young man.
"You are a demon. Since you are about to become a god, why do you destroy your body and take on an ordinary boy? What do you want?"
What on earth would make him willing to give up the tree body that was hundreds of thousands of years old, just to completely obtain this body now.
Although this body belongs to the gods, it is just the most common and low-level ancestor. Apart from a slightly longer lifespan, it is no different from ordinary humans in other places.
Giving up the big one in favor of the small one is not something a tree demon who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years would do.
