Wang Zheng's erratic joke startled the little tree-man—well, physically startled.
After realizing that it had overreacted, it gently stretched out a branch and flicked Wang Zheng a few times, as if scolding him, showing great intelligence.
It also seems to be a test of the true nature of this guy who claims he wants to change his environment to help him evolve.
Seeing the little tree-man take the initiative to be friendly, Wang Zheng, being the smooth talker he is, took the initiative to grasp the other's branch and gently squeezed the twig and leaves in its hand.
To be honest, despite its intimidating golden appearance, this little tree-man feels no different from a regular sapling. You can clearly feel the rough wood grain on the surface, only it's a bit harder, rock hard...
Sensing that the other party was somewhat uncomfortable, Wang Zheng took the initiative to let go of his hand, then condensed several beams of white light and cast a few holy light spells on him.
Although clinical trials have shown that the holy light has little effect on plant growth, seeing the Golden Sun Fruit Tree tremble comfortably a few times, clearly relaxing, Wang Zheng took it as a massage to promote their relationship.
Hmm... In terms of restoring spiritual plants, my Holy Light Technique is completely defeated by Chu Xiaoman's Vitality Liquid!
However, Wang Zheng didn't mind. He reached out and scratched the little tree-man's golden trunk, whispering:
"Now that we're companions, how about I give you a name? How about we call you the Nonsense Tree?"
Wang Zheng's mischievous side kicked in, and he began to imagine the little tree-man shaking its branches and making a "Nonsense, nonsense" sound.
Just thinking about that hilarious scene made him laugh.
Although the little tree-man in front of him didn't quite understand what Wang Zheng meant, he could still sense from analyzing Wang Zheng's mental energy fluctuations that the guy was probably teasing him.
So he quickly shook his arm and turned around to express his dissatisfaction.
Faced with this, Wang Zheng had no choice but to surrender.
"Alright, alright, if you don't like it, let's change it. Seeing how smart and intelligent you are, I'll call you Xiao Jin. Hmm, it's decided then, no arguments allowed!"
Little Tree Man: ...
The two quickly built a close relationship, and Wang Zheng didn't hold back either. Before leaving, he took the emptied jar and prepared to fill it with the golden liquid from the tree hole.
After all, keeping it would be a waste, so I might as well pack it up and take it back with me.
However, his action immediately provoked the little tree spirit's displeasure. Watching the little tree spirit jump around excitedly, Wang Zheng said in confusion:
"Xiao Jin, I'm not trying to criticize you, but small-farmer mentality is unacceptable."
Since you're moving anyway, it would be such a waste if this spiritual liquid wasn't stored away.
Instead of leaving it here to waste, I'll put it away for you first, and I'll give it back to you when we get home, okay? Be good~
Regardless of how much truth or falsehood Wang Zheng is saying, the little tree-man, whom Wang Zheng named Xiao Jin, is so anxious that he jumps up and down when he sees that the human in front of him cannot understand his meaning.
Finally, with great effort, she managed to push Wang Zheng out of the tree hole, and then stood with him in the open space outside.
Although Wang Zheng looked puzzled, he was curious about what the little tree-man wanted to do, so he cooperated with Xiao Jin's actions and withdrew.
As soon as the little tree-man stood still on the ground, its roots instantly burrowed into the soil, and then a series of special energy fluctuations rippled around its body.
As the range of fluctuations widened, the short, withered giant tree instantly changed.
The originally thick branches were instantly covered by countless tiny roots, emitting bursts of golden light.
Then these roots spread rapidly, and in a short time they had spread throughout the entire tree, and were still extending outward at an astonishing speed, until they completely enveloped the entire giant tree.
At this moment, the once withered giant tree once again exuded lush vitality, and its originally dull branches and leaves were renewed.
Thick tree roots rose from the ground, and in no time, the space was a complete mess.
After a violent shaking, the giant tree, enveloped in golden light, grew smaller and smaller, as if it had shrunk in water. In the end, it shrank from a giant tree that required dozens of people to barely encircle to a tiny tree the size of a palm.
Next, seemingly exhausted, Xiao Jin retracted its roots, quickly stepped forward, picked up the sapling, stuffed it into its canopy, and looked at Wang Zheng with a smug expression.
Although Wang Zheng didn't know how he could see a smug expression on a tree trunk, he couldn't help but give it a thumbs up as encouragement.
"Wow, that's a real move! You even moved the treehouse! Amazing!"
Wang Zheng was amazed by this incredible scene, wondering if he could still pull off this trick after filling the tree hole with other items.
If possible, this would be an entirely different way of storing things.
Although I don't really need it myself, and it's unlikely I'll be able to take it around after Xiao Jin settles down at Nanjing University, that doesn't stop me from developing more practical functions. If it can hide people, then its value will be even greater.
While pondering how many secrets the Golden Sun Fruit Tree still held that could be explored and discovered, Wang Zheng cast two Holy Light spells upon it.
Although Wang Zheng already knew that the all-powerful Holy Light spell would have little effect on Xiao Jin, it could at least restore some of the plant-like beast's strength.
