Chapter 7: Tree in front of the window

【6】

The tree elf and I became very good friends, he always told me many, many insignificant but beautiful things that made me cry.

The flowers of the day before yesterday were looking forward to a beautiful encounter with the scorching sun. They kept growing, with white petals and light yellow stamens, attracting butterflies.

Yesterday's fallen leaves had a wonderful adventure. He had just escaped from the mouth of a praying mantis. The wind sent him to a man's truck and drove him far away. When he woke up in the morning, he found that his own home was the best.

And today, the spirits of plants who have not yet transformed will hold a grand banquet.

"If, do you want to watch it together? Today is the annual exchange conference, a day when all kinds of elves communicate together." The elf of the tree smiled and invited me.

I held back Gu Qianwang who wanted to tell the elf what happened today, it's better not to say anything that makes people unhappy.

"If, what's the matter? Why do you look unhappy?"

"It's nothing, I'm very happy. When will the banquet start in the evening?" The elf drooped his ears, looking very frustrated.

"If, you really can't lie. I am a tree spirit, only you can see it, and you can tell me anything, just like before."

A tree is still a tree, even if he has a human appearance.

"Today, the monitor of the class next door asked me to help her cheat in the exam, but I refused."

"Then why are you unhappy? Cheating is bad, right? What's wrong with refusing?" The spirit of the tree looked at me puzzled.

"I have never rejected others. I made her angry. I was really scared, so scared of the cold handmade knife deep in her heart."

"It's okay, no one can hurt you. If you are the most special existence among human beings, no one will hurt Ruo."

"But I'm scared, so scared..."

"It's okay, human beings should learn to reject it. If others take everything that Ruo does for granted, it will be very hard for Ruo in the future." The tree spirit analyzed and seemed to be familiar with human beings. He patiently enlightened me like Like a brother.

"If, remember to come out at night, I will wait for you under the tree."

So I listened to his words and learned to reject humans.

The human beings who left a deep fear in my heart are actually not that scary.The tree spirit said with a smile.

Night is coming soon.

The tree in front of the window is still tall and silent in the dark night, and green fruits are beginning to bear on the tree, a bunch of them, a bit like the omnipotent wishing tree in fairy tales, it seems to be able to hang nameplates full of wishes on above.

"Sapling, tree spirit, I'm here." I called out to the tree spirit in a low voice. My father and mother were already asleep, and my younger sister, who always liked to stay up late, fell asleep excitedly because of tomorrow's outing.

The tree spirit raised its head, dragging a lamp with a dreamy halo like a firefly in its hand.There is also the gentle light unique to trees on his body, which shines brightly like a bright light in the long dark night, which is particularly obvious.

Dryads aren't human, and I've found myself doing well against creatures other than humans.

I carefully closed the window and climbed down the ladder.

"What a beautiful lamp, can I touch it?"

"This is not a lamp." The tree spirit shook his head helplessly, the light ball in his hand scattered into broken light spots.

As soon as the voice fell, the more eye-catching light spots converged into a dazzling river of light, flowing through the dark night sky, covering other things.I was deeply shocked and moved to cry.Even if my sight will be taken away by these beautiful things, I am willing.

"Don't look too long, or you won't see anything better."

"Huh? Something better?" When the tree spirit spoke, there was something other than a smile on his always gentle face. It must be yearning and joy.His hands didn't pass through my body as usual, but actually touched my body.

"Come on, let's go up there!" The tree spirit hugged me and flew up.The scenery above is completely different from the past.

The river formed by the points of light is still flowing endlessly, and human eyes cannot stare at it for a long time. "This is the spirit of plants." The tree spirit said longingly, but I didn't quite understand.

"Wait here, I have to go get something. Remember to hold it tight, and be careful not to fall." I nodded and hugged the tree. The tree spirit put me on the branch and flew away.

After waiting for a while, the tree spirit flew back again, bringing two red leaves.I looked at him suspiciously.

"Don't worry, it's sweet, eat it." The tree spirit looked around longingly, as if there was something that I couldn't see.

Eating the leaves, a sweetness permeates my heart.

I suddenly saw something more vivid than a river of light, a complex color that cannot be described in a few words or sentences.

"The tree spirit?"

"They are the spirits of men," replied the Tree Spirit.

The human spirit is an extremely complex existence. Although they are not as pure as the spirits of other creatures, they are still amazingly beautiful.

"Humans are not such terrible creatures, you must be able to understand." The tree spirit grabbed my trembling arm and said seriously.The human spirit that never stops appearing over and over again, the human spirit that loops endlessly is not actually scary.

I carefully stretched out my fingers to touch the small light ball in front of me, and I could still feel the joy from the other party.

I looked at the tree spirit, and he also smiled and encouraged me, just like a brother who likes his sister.

"Xiao Ruo, wake up! Go and see your sister, it's really strange that she hasn't woken up today."

"Got it, mom likes to worry about it." The younger sister rolled her eyes and went to call her.But I found that today's sister is different.

If there is any difference, it is probably that the machine with only a skeleton suddenly has a soul.After all, no one knows whether such a dispensable thing as the soul exists or not.

"Sister?" The younger sister looked at her, with black hair, pale face, blue eye circles, and a three-piece school uniform that has never changed for thousands of years.The older sister looked at the younger sister just rubbing her head and showing a genuine smile.

It seems that if has completely overcome the fear of humans.

The spirit of the tree sits on the trunk, and the lively appearance makes people smile knowingly.

By the time the last leaf turned yellow, the Dryad also became lazy.Winter came quickly, and I never saw the Dryad again.

One day, he suddenly came to my window and said goodbye to me.

"If, I think I'm going to disappear."

"Sapling, are you kidding me? This joke is not funny at all." The Dryad just stared at me in silence like he had been a tree.There was a complex emotion in his eyes that I couldn't understand like a human being.In the end he just smiled in relief.

"If, let's watch the Shadow Fountain together in spring. The spring water absorbing the moonlight will turn into crystal clear starlight. That kind of scene is the most beautiful scene I have ever seen in my life."

I can even see the heavy snow falling through his green body.It was the biggest snowfall in several years, fluttering like catkins flying in spring.The tree in front of the window no longer has leaves like the handicrafts that were once beautiful enough to make people cry.

The following spring, I saw the tree spirit again.He was still sitting on the branch, but looked at the distant city with bewildered eyes.

"Hey! Tree spirit!" I stopped the tree spirit in front of the window, and he turned around with a strange look that he had never seen before.

"Can you see me?"

"Why not? We're best friends."

"Friend?" The tree spirit tilted its head in confusion, and its pointed ears also tilted accordingly. "How can I make friends with humans?"

"Sapling, what's wrong with you?"

"What, it's just a boring human being. I thought human beings were so interesting."

"Sapling, didn't we make an appointment to see the Shadow Spring together? The spring water absorbed by the moonlight will turn into crystal clear starlight. You said it yourself!"

"Shadow Fountain, although I don't know what it is, the elf who told you this must be lying to you. The Shadow Fountain in our world means "the lie of the deceiver, the thing that does not exist"."

"What and what, how could the tree spirit lie to me? How could you lie to me?! Why, tree spirit?" I don't know when tears were streaming down my face.

So I never walked out of my room according to my own ideas.When my mother found out, she just shook her head sadly and left.

I don't believe in humans anymore, I don't believe in anything anymore.The Dryad has completely destroyed my trust in other things.

I no longer trust humans as creatures.My parents didn't care about me anymore.I became a person of no use to society.

Time flies like a white horse, it seems to have passed for a long time, and it seems to be just a blink of an eye.

But I still can't remember the face of the tree spirit. Sometimes I will sit on the tree trunk where he used to sit, look at the distant city like him, and watch the river of light flow through this place over and over again like him.

I am alone, I have thought so more than once.Sometimes, there are many children around the tree, they climb up the tree and pick the fruit of the tree.

So I saw my old self.

One day our house was going to be demolished, and when they saw the tree in front of the window, they expressed that they would move the tree to a better environment.On the day the tree left the ground, many people came to watch, and they said something here and there.

"This child is so pitiful. He must have been missing for a long time. I didn't expect to find a bandit under the tree next to her house. It's crazy."

"Oh, it's hard for this child. It's hard to get the key points in the exam and just disappear."

"I heard that the people who lived here had a child earlier, and it seemed that he died under a tree too. The corpse was in a mess at that time, which scared us terribly."

"Yeah, I don't know what evil I did. Poor."

I thought it would be difficult for me to squeeze in, but unexpectedly I squeezed in easily.

I saw a person with black hair, a pale face, and a three-piece school uniform that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

It was surprisingly familiar.

The moment the tree fell, my eyes were plunged into darkness.

Who is the spirit of the tree?

【10】

The tree in front of the window gave birth to a spirit, with only twelve months of memory, reincarnating once a year.
