The darkness faded quickly, and the tree holes under my feet became flat. From the distance, Cheese judged that he had not come to other spaces, and it was still in the belly of the big tree. For many trees, the living tissue is actually not the core of the interior. The core is the earliest part of the tree. As the tree grows older, the vitality inside it will sometimes be naturally exhausted.

What truly maintains the survival of trees are those still vibrant tissues between the center and the skin. As long as they are not damaged, one or two tree holes or even thunder are cracked into two pieces, they may survive. Having said that, it is indeed difficult for trees that are truly made into tree houses to have a future.

Cheese can now be sure of two things. One is that the traces he just saw were left by the dragon. The other is that the so-called tree mother is not the collective consciousness or individual consciousness that was imagined to be born from the giant tree.

Yes, those lonely mushrooms grow out of wood after all. If the tree mother treats them as children, it is as ridiculous as a person has a good impression of maggots growing from corpses. So what is the real appearance of the tree mother?

In the center of the space covered with the inner wall of the tree hole and emitting pearly air, there is an oil lamp. The oil lamp lights up all the treasures through a ring-shaped expander with a reflective coating behind it. The tree mother is right below the oil lamp.

In a sense, there is no error in the name of the Muttons. She is indeed part of the tree and does have the characteristics of maternity. Because sitting under the oil lamp in the tree hole is a puppet of the same size as a real person.

The puppet has delicate facial features, the joints and curves of the body are extremely delicate, and even a little too delicate, which makes people feel very uncomfortable. When beauty reaches a certain extreme, it may bring the opposite feeling, but it is not ugly, but the weirdness that appears after exceeding the threshold.

This is a very beautiful puppet, and it is also a very weird puppet. She is surrounded by gold, silver and jewelry, as if she is wearing a gorgeous dress.

Cheese quickly understood the origin of the weirdness. Although the puppet's body was human-like, she had no hair on her body. Although her eyes were carved into an open appearance, the eyeballs in it were withered together, like a stiff mask. In any case, at this moment, the tree mother's deity in front of him was the rare opportunity to face the evil spirits in the gray robe.

Yes, evil spirit. With the system of division of biology and existence, the tree mother should be classified as the scope of evil spirits. She is a product of the combination of time precipitation and opportunity of the biological and non-organisms. These products usually have natural malice, so they are called evil spirits.

There is a reason for the existence of evil spirits. First of all, emotions that are free from nature. Good intentions and positive emotions usually disappear quickly, while pain and malice can often remain for a long time. These are not easily eliminated from the accumulation of natural sediments over time, and quantity and quality will always reach the limits of the generation of evil spirits.

However, there are always exceptions in everything. Where smart creatures are more active, the malice of evil spirits will be particularly obvious, such as the waters under the waterway and the battlefield where wars occur frequently. The giant wood forest obviously does not meet this characteristic. Although the tree mother is an evil spirit in nature, her malice is very limited, and she even mixes with many other things.

"I think I need to apologize for not following the agreement first." Cheese stood on the edge of light. He didn't like the place where jewelry was everywhere, which reminded him of a name, the broker.

In my dream, the existence of the rat-man plague and claiming to be a god is shown in a similar image. Below the treasures everywhere is the soil made of deeper corpses.

"There is no need for this. Your commitment comes from my expectation that the animals in the forest will not move according to the direction of the trees, you are animals."

The puppet did not open its mouth, and the sound came from an ancient music box beside her. The box might have been made by a skilled craftsman. Although time has made the decorative patterns of its skin no longer clear, its shape and the sounds made in the box can still show its level.

"So I don't know, why did you come here for me?" Cheese was not angry, he just followed the other person's words.

When communicating with evil spirits, you cannot expect to be able to talk to them normally. Evil spirits are paranoid, and their concepts are very rigid, because what constitutes the consciousness is paranoid thoughts. If you want to communicate with these beings in a tiny way, obedience is the only choice.

"I understand your needs and can help you. In contrast, I hope you can help me with one thing. Transaction or symbiosis, you can choose the words you like." The music box continues to make up words.

"Demand? My only need is to wait here until the storm passes. You have achieved this. But if you want me to help me, I have no reason to refuse."

The other party's words made Cheese not quite understand. It was just a coincidence that their appearance here was a storm that destroyed the flying carriage and forced Cheese and others to force the landing here. There was no other reason.

"No, that's not your need." If the other party was not an evil spirit, Gray Robe must have refuted when she heard this sentence. The person involved did not know his needs, but the bystander knew that this matter might be reasonable for other people, and putting it on Gray Robe would be an insult.

Every step of Cheese's arrival here is clear purpose and planned. He knows his demands and is steadily realizing them. Now you actually tell him that his demands are not that? Excluding this is a technique to try to anger Cheese, which is also interesting.

"Since that's the case, I want to know what my needs are first."

The music box was silent for a while, and just as Cheese wanted to classify the conversation just now as a mystery, it rang again, "You want to fix it, a flute."

"I think you misunderstood something. I'm not good at playing musical instruments, and I've never owned one..." At this point, I can't continue.

Cheese remembered that he did have a flute, calling the dragon flute. It was a magic item that he summoned his dragon partner Migo. It was damaged on the grassland. At that time, in order to fight against the yew people chasing Atta, Gray Robe released the dragon breath with the flute, and calling the dragon flute was damaged because of it. But how could she know? Many people know about this, but they definitely did not include evil spirits thousands of miles away.
