Chapter 56: A chestnut tree in the village has become a spirit
How could Lili, who was left in the house, stay still? As soon as they turned around, he crawled out along the threshold. After hearing what the mother and son said, I was a little confused: [Host, why do you have to wait three to five years? 】
[If you want to eat chestnuts, tell me and I will grow them for you! 】
Yu Zhongdou turned around and saw Lili standing behind them. Small green flowers had bloomed on her head, some of which were in the shape of long, fluffy strips.
As the long male flowers touched the female green flowers, the male flowers quickly withered, leaving only the green flowers that turned beige. Then the flowers withered and small thorn balls grew out, growing and ripening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lili sat down on the ground, feeling a little tired: [Host, have you seen enough? 】
[I am too young now, and my spiritual energy is not enough, so I can only form a little at a time. 】
[But it doesn’t matter. I will practice hard. When I become spiritual in the future, I will grow lots of chestnuts for you. 】
…
Yu Zhongdou was deeply moved by the small black bean-like eyes, and he quickly picked up Li Li and said, "What kind of fruit do you bear? You are growing small so fast, you should keep it. My mother doesn't want to eat chestnuts now, she thinks there is no chestnut tree at home, and no one else has one either, so she wants to plant another one at home..."
Lili tilted her head and looked at Yu's mother: [Is that so? 】
Lili's level was too low, so Yu's mother certainly couldn't hear Lili's voice, but by looking at its parent and child, she could guess what it meant and couldn't help laughing.
Why is Mr. Chestnut so cute when he becomes smaller?
A trace of pity arose in my heart, and I said, "Yes, Master Chestnut, I just think that other people's families have chestnut trees, so we should have one too. Now that you have become a spirit, let my son serve you well, and you don't need to bear fruit anymore. Later, let my son go to the neighbor's house and break off a branch. We will plant it, and in a few years we can eat chestnuts again."
I also asked Lili what she ate. Was she drinking water and eating monsters like before?
[Same as before.] 】
Yu Zhongdou translated: "Mom, it said it's the same as before."
Mother Yu: "Then go to the bone-eating ant farm and get some for Master Chestnut. He looks so skinny, he needs to be nourished."
[My name is Lili.] 】
[The mountain god gave me a name, my name is Lili. 】
[You can also call me Lili! 】
…
The chestnuts on Lili’s head were finally picked off. After all, they had grown so much, so they couldn’t be wasted, right?
Yu's mother said that she would cook it for Lili later. It grows on its own, so it should be edible, right?
[It’s edible.] 】
"As long as it's edible, I'll cook it."
Yu Zhongdou received orders from Yu's mother, fed Lili some water, and then took Lili to the neighbor's house to pick chestnut branches.
Although the distance was only a few steps, he still walked around the whole village and proudly "showed off" to the villagers that he was chosen by the mountain god. See, Lord Mountain God handed Lord Chestnut over to him.
Oh, by the way, Lord Chestnut has another very nice name, “Li Li”. You can tell it is Lord Chestnut’s name as soon as you hear it.
"Is this Lord Chestnut?!"
"Mr. Chestnut is a very big tree, how come it has become so small?"
"Master Chestnut can become small and walk, can Master Kiwi do the same?"
…
Many people turned their attention to another spirited plant in the village - kiwi fruit. They were eager to get one and really wanted to ask Chief Wu Mu for help. What should they do so that they could also get a "Mr. Kiwi" as cute as Mr. Chestnut?
Someone also asked Yu Zhongdou: "Can the chestnuts in my garden also become spirits?"
Yu Zhongdou was proud: "How is it possible? My Lili has been special from the beginning. It is impossible for your chestnuts to become spirits. You are overthinking. Instead of targeting your chestnuts, you might as well think about whether you can make a contract with the village's kiwi. It's an equal contract. After the contract, kiwi will be your family member. You have to treat him well... If not, the mountain god will take him back!"
Yu Zhongdou believed that the reason why Lord Mountain God chose him was not only because Lili chose him herself, but also because Lord Mountain God thought he was reliable and gave Lord Lili to him.
After all, Lord Lili is too young and doesn't know anything, so he is so easy to deceive.
It would be fine if he was a good person, but what if he met a bad person?
The mountain god certainly doesn't want anyone to lead his little goblin astray.
When Yu Zhongdou arrived at the village chief's house, Ming Qi had already gotten up. He was fortunate enough to see Mr. Chestnut on Yu Zhongdou's shoulder together with Village Chief Wumu and others.
That tiny thing, not even as long as an adult's arm, shyly hid behind Yu Zhongdou's ear.
real!
Very cute!
Ming Qi could see that Wu Liangchen became greedy at the first sight, with the word "want" written all over his eyes.
Ming Qi: “…”
Why do all the good things happen to this kid?
After Yu Zhongdou left, he said to Wu Liangchen: "Don't worry, you will have it in the future."
"How do you know?" Wu Liangchen tilted his head and asked, "Did the Mountain God tell you?"
"Because you are a good child, and the mountain god likes obedient children!" He didn't tell me, but I can put forward "conditions" to him.
He became his younger brother, and he gave him a spirit plant.

Yu Zhongdou returned home with a branch. His mother had already cooked dinner. His father also came back from the fields and heard about Lili's situation.
As soon as they saw him coming back, they immediately surrounded him and asked, "Where's Lili? Where is Lili?"
“Here it is!”
Yu Zhongdou held Li Li on his shoulder in his hand.
Father Yu didn't dare to take it, he just watched from the side, amazed: "Such a big chestnut has become so small... so cute!"
"Hey, huh? That's what they call, the essence is concentrated!"
…
When Lili left, the hole was too big, so the father and son worked together to fill it up and then inserted the branch into it.
While watering the plants, Yu's father said, "Three to five years should be enough, right? It won't become a spirit again this time, right?"
Don't keep raising it. After you finally can eat chestnuts, it becomes a spirit again.
"Dad, what do you think a demon is? How can it be so easy to become a demon? Li Li is special. There are so many chestnuts in our village, but we haven't seen many chestnut trees that have become demons."
Yu's father laughed.
Lili looked up at this, then that, and then at the chestnut branch stuck in the ground, and decided to give them a surprise when the time comes.
Now the spiritual energy in its body has been used up, but it doesn’t matter. When it basks in the moonlight at night and practices well, the chestnut tree will grow faster.
You don’t have to wait three to five years, you can eat it in three to five days.
On the other side, Ming Qi greeted the village chief of Wumu and went to the mountain temple to meet Yang Xiangwei.
[You want to be my little brother?] Yang Xiangwei raised her eyebrows. She had wanted to discuss this matter with him, but she didn't expect that he would bring it up first.
What happened? Did you have an epiphany after you got into a fight with someone and almost got beaten to death this time?
Yang Xiangwei thought so and asked the same question.
Ming Qi nodded and said, "Didn't you say that anyone can become a god? Although I wasn't a good person in my previous life, didn't I start over? I am also a 'mortal' now, and I am better than Yu Zhongdou. If I become your younger brother, I will definitely be better than him."
