Long Qinghong walked in front, and Mo Xiao followed behind and asked curiously: "Xingluo tree? Is it the name of the big tree where people live?"
"Yes, Xingluoshu is essentially a tree demon. He is the only plant spirit discovered so far. Unfortunately, he is too big to transform, and it is extremely inconvenient to move. As an elder, he voluntarily takes root permanently in
This place has become a refuge for all monsters."
There was a seriousness in Long Qinghong's tone: "Xing Luoshu is a kind elder, please don't do any rude behavior."
The closer he got to the Xingluo Tree, the more Mo Xiao felt that the tree was astonishingly big. It might be dozens of kilometers or even higher. There were branches stretching out from the edge of the crown, as if it was getting bigger. "It's so big...how many monsters live on top of it?" Mo Xiao looked up and saw that at this distance between them, Mo Xiao could barely see the sky above him.
Long Qinghong raised his head and said: "There are a total of 55,111 monsters living in the Xingluo Tree, and this number is still increasing year by year."
Everyone couldn't help but click their tongues, what is the concept of more than 50,000 people living on a tree? The total population of the suburbs where Mo Xiao and the others lived was less than 50,000. He couldn't say anything except sighing, "Fuck you, that's awesome."
Mo Xiao could no longer say anything nutritious.
"Will the Star Luo Tree be overwhelmed?" Ye Xiaoying noticed other aspects and asked worriedly.
"Haha, don't worry. The number of monsters now is far from reaching the load limit of the star tree. It is said that a long time ago, the star tree would still bear fruit. At that time, its load was much heavier than it is now." Long Qinghong's mood seemed to have improved a little: "Every year we do quantity statistics and help Xingluo build some unnecessary branches. If anything goes wrong, we will report it to us. Xingluo tree can communicate and he will report to us in time."
Response."
"Where do the alliance staff usually live? Do they also live in the Star Luo Tree?" Mo Xiao asked, he noticed
"It depends on whether it is a long-term or short-term stay. Have you seen the houses around the lake? Generally, law enforcement officers or personnel from other strongholds who live on a short-term basis will choose to live there. It is somewhat similar to the business model of a hotel."<
/p>
Long Qinghong paused and continued: "More than half of the monsters living in the Xingluo Tree are families with children. They choose to avoid monster hunters and live here for a long time. Many of them are also staff members of the Watch Alliance.
."
Mo Xiao suddenly realized that this must have been a measure to reduce the burden on Xingluoshu, and this arrangement seemed more reasonable.
There are very few monsters in the Monster Alliance that have transformed into humans. Some of them are unable to transform, while others disdain or do not want to become human. However, even so, except for children, adult monsters all maintain their humanoid form. This humanoid type is very similar to the war beasts in the demon world.
Mo Xiao was still thinking. A girl holding a large bouquet of flowers passed by a few people. When she saw Long Qinghong, her eyes lit up and she said hello with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Long, why haven't I seen you recently?"
Ah~"
The girl is tall, has a delicate face, and is full of smiles. She has long black hair that reaches her waist, and a red bow that looks like rabbit ears tied on her head. Just by looking at her, you can tell she is an energetic girl.
"Yuzi? How about you? I'll come to see you in a few days." Long Qinghong saw the figure behind the bouquet clearly and replied with a smile.
"Take this bouquet, Mr. Long, and come to my flower shop more often in your free time~" The girl named Yuzi took out a bouquet and handed it to Long Qinghong, and then faced Mo Xiao
Several people smiled and waved, "Seeing as you seem to have something to do now, I won't disturb you."
After saying this, the girl hugged the heavy bouquet and left with a smile.
After the girl left, Shu Mocai sighed quietly: "Youzi...it's been a long time since I last saw you."
"Are you still an acquaintance?" Mo Xiao turned around and asked.
"Uh...really familiar." Shu Mo suddenly seemed to remember something, turned his face and said.
"Brother Shu Mo is blushing." Ling Dang suddenly stuck out his head and shouted.
"Oh? There's an inside story." Ye Xiaoying saw that it was indeed the case, rubbed his chin and said with a bad smile, "Hurry up and get the real deal!"
"This...this..."
Shu Mo's head was sweating anxiously, and he couldn't hold back a single word after struggling for a long time.
Long Qinghong turned his head slightly and looked back and said: "That girl Yuzi and Shu Mo are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Their relationship... I only know that silly girl Yuzi likes this bastard."
"Oh~"
Mo Xiao and Mao Niang sang a long tune in unison and looked at Shu Mo jokingly.
Shu Mo was stared at by the two people, and he was furious on the spot: "Why are you looking at me? I have always regarded that girl as my sister! Don't tarnish our beautiful friendship with your dirty thoughts!"
"Who tarnished your friendship? We didn't say anything."
Ye Xiaoying clicked her tongue: "Just now you could bear to hide in the landlord's collar and watch your Qingmei leave without even saying hello."
"Nima... Big Cat! Do you really care about this matter because it has nothing to do with you? What good does attracting Yuzi's attention do to me? I have enough troubles!"
Shu Mo blew his beard and said with a glare, if he couldn't beat him, he would have kicked Ye Xiaoying in the face.
Mo Xiao winked at the cat demon girl and said comfortingly: "Okay, okay, stop arguing, we are almost there."
The further you walked toward the Xingluo Tree, the more monsters you knew about Long Qinghong. However, few monsters took the initiative to talk to them and just looked at them from a distance. Most of the monsters seemed extremely respectful, except for the younger children.
With so many worries, following Mo Xiao and the others is like chasing some big star.
"This is right below the Xingluo Tree. You can go up to the residential area of the tree canopy along the plank road, but we won't go there."
The place where their group of people are standing now is a granite platform centered on the trunk of a star tree and floating in the middle of the lake. The radius of this platform is about half the size of a football field. There are various entertainment facilities on it, including chessboards, swings, and amusement rides.
Mo Xiao even saw a group of monsters playing basketball not far away.
"Mo Xiao's father, this place looks like Qianshi Park." Ling Dang gently pulled Mo Xiao's sleeves and said.
Judging from Lingdang's household registration, Mo Xiao is now nominally Lingdang's adoptive father. In order not to cause unnecessary suspicion and trouble, Lingdang will take the initiative to call Mo Xiao "Dad" when he is outside.
"Qianshi Park?" Long Qinghong turned around and asked doubtfully.
Mo Xiao explained: "Don't worry, Miss Long, the bell is talking about an ordinary park near our residence."
"The entertainment methods invented by human beings are very good. At this point, the monsters have to be inferior."
Long Qinghong waved his hand and changed his voice: "If you want to play, you can stay and play after the purification is completed. We welcome you to be guests, but now we still ask for your help to solve the pollution problem."
Mo Xiao nodded, and then several people followed Long Qinghong and approached the plank road, where an old man with a long beard was waiting for them.
