Chapter 125 I am a tree

Que Tiancheng leaped backward and landed steadily on the black and red ghost tree.

The black and red ghost tree once again burst out with black and red light, which shot towards Qi Rong like a sharp arrow. Qi Rong dodged but his hands and feet were entangled by the black and red light.

“Hahahahahaha!”

Que Tianwen's laughter grew more frantic. "This black and red ghost tree has absorbed the resentment and hatred of countless undead souls. The demonic energy it contains is immeasurable. The stronger the demonic nature in you, the more vigorous it will become, and the more powerful it will become."

"Qi Rong, this... is what I'm going to use against you!"

Those deep, dull and empty eyes stared straight at him.

Qi Rong exuded a thick black aura, and the ghost tree opposite him became more lush and eerie.

"Third Brother!"

Bai Xiaoxiao summoned the Jiao Bow to help.

However, he was also tightly entangled by the attacking ghost tree vines.

Que Tiancheng laughed loudly: "You! All of you! Become the nourishment for me to ascend to godhood!"

“Hahahahahahaha!”

…

…

My whole body feels light and airy.

And it was as if something was deeply rooted in him and he couldn't move.

Bai Xiaoxiao slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was a quaint little village, blue sky and white clouds, flocks of flying birds, and circles of pale yellow fences. Country farmers wearing turf and straw hats walked by in twos and threes, carrying hoes.

[What? The scene changed again?]

She wanted to stretch, but found that her hands and feet could not move at all, as if they were fixed by something.

[No... W-what's going on?! Why can't I move? Help, I'm not buried.]

She found she couldn't even speak.

The body keeps exerting force.

I don't know where the rustling sound came from.

She felt as if someone was holding her hand.

How dare you! Who dares to touch your honorable aunt?

The hand holding her seemed to tremble slightly, and then a clean-looking child appeared in front of Bai Xiaoxiao. He was wearing a coarse cloth that was washed white, and his hair was wrapped with a hairband of the same color. He was not as stunning as Xiaohua Yanci when he first met her, but the child had a very pure look, just like an innocent, wet deer, which was very lovable.

Bai Xiaoxiao wanted to say something but couldn't make a sound.

at this time,

A few children came running in from outside the yard. The older one was holding a dirty bamboo ball. He kept waving to the child in white clothes in front of her: "Qi Rong, let's go! Let's go play with the ball!"

"I'll go later."

The child in white in front of her shouted back at the top of his voice.

Yep!

What else is there that you don’t understand?

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at the clean child in front of her and couldn't help shaking.

I didn't expect Third Brother to be like this when he was little. He's so cute. I really want to kiss him, hug him, and hold him high.

Xiao Qirong didn't understand what she said, but the word "too cute" really made him a little shy. He pursed his lips and lowered his eyes. This cute look made Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but scream again.

[So cute, so cute! No...why on earth can't I move? This feeling of wanting to rub but not being able to rub is so uncomfortable.]

Qi Rong still didn't understand, but he could see that the 'elf' in front of him wanted to move. He thought hard for a moment, then ran away with a 'da da da'.

[No, where are you going?]

Bai Xiaoxiao wanted to run after him, but she could only keep her arms outstretched like a scarecrow. The warm sunlight fell on her body, and she felt lazy, comfortable, and sleepy.

Suddenly I felt something spilled on my head.

She opened her eyes hazily and saw little Qirong holding a kettle and standing on tiptoe trying to water her.

That's right.

It's watering...

So, my aunt is a tree now?

The sapling in front of me was visibly wilting.

Qi Rong was a little panicked. He had originally wanted to water the sapling more. The book said that only if the main body grew up quickly could the little elf living there move freely. But now it seemed... things seemed to have gone wrong...

He reached out and pulled at the drooping branches: "Are you okay?"

I'm fine!

Bai Xiaoxiao pushed the branches apart again with a "teng——" sound.

[Since I'm here, I'll just make the best of it. As an experienced reckless person, oh no... reckless tree, I've learned how to regulate my mindset. It doesn't matter if I'm no longer a human being. At worst, I can burn myself to death. In eighteen years, I'll be a brave man again, hahahahaha!]

Qi Rong silently took back the watering can, opened the lid and smelled it.

Could it be that the saplings were made stupid by water boiled with some medicine?

The wind blows from the horizon.

Qi Rong shrank back and couldn't help shivering.

"Aqiu——"

【Hurry up and get inside! 】

Seeing Xiao Qirong hugging his arms and trembling, Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but urge him, but she couldn't make any sound and could only hint frantically in her heart, hoping that he would understand.

[Hurry back! You're already feeling unwell, what are you going to do if you get sick?]

Qi Rong rubbed the tip of his nose, paused when he heard Xiao Shuimiao's worry, lowered his eyes to glance at the kettle he was holding, hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind.

He ran back into the house.

Bai Xiaoxiao was very pleased to see this.

Begins to unfold its leaves and photosynthesize.

But soon dark clouds began to float in from the east.

The heavy rain came without warning, leaving no chance for preparation.

The people working in the rice fields ran back home wearing straw hats. The fine rain fell into the mud puddles and splashed small water droplets. Bai Xiaoxiao liked rain. She liked to fall asleep listening to the sound of rain since she was a child.

Now that I have turned into a tree, I don’t have to worry about getting wet or hot in the rain, nor do I have to leave in a hurry to avoid the rain.

It was her first time sleeping in the rain.

As she thought about it, she really felt a little sleepy.

'Bang--'!

It sounded like a door opening.

Bai Xiaoxiao saw the little boy in white clothes got two large wooden basins from somewhere and put them in the rain to wash. He only had a large bamboo hat on top of his thin coarse cloth clothes, and he looked like an adult.

[Why aren't you going home yet? Why are you washing pots and pans in the rain? Your family must be short of that... Oh, maybe they really are.]

【But, but that won’t work either! 】

Bai Xiaoxiao shook the leaves vigorously, making a rustling sound, hoping to attract Xiao Qirong's attention. He did look up at her at first, but then lowered his head and washed the basin carefully.

This virtuous...

Bai Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say.

He waited until Xiao Qirong had rinsed the two large wooden basins clean, and then he took out bowls, bottles, spoons for collecting water from somewhere... and even brought out a large iron pot.

What?

Bai Xiaoxiao looked at his movements with a worried look on her face.

[This child...couldn't the rain have made him stupid...?]
