A long, long time later, when the Sakura Demon, who had become the envoy of Fengyue God and felt helpless towards his master, accidentally asked Qiao Xi why she suddenly changed her mind at that time.
Qiao Xi pondered deeply for a while and explained: "I just think it would be nice to plant a cherry blossom tree in the yard. Of course, more importantly, you look quite good in human form.
Pleasing to the eyes.”
Sakura Demon: "???"
Sorry to bother you.
But at this time, the Sakura Demon didn't know the reason why he was taken in. He was just happy that he was taken in by the adult he loved (?), which could be seen from the cherry blossom petals falling behind him from time to time.
cough.
It wasn't until they reached the mountain where Qiao Xi and Bu Yue were born that the Sakura Demon finally understood that he was actually the legendary Fengyue God.
But knowing this, Sakura Demon was a little confused.
He originally wanted to dedicate his name to Qiao Xi and become his servant, but once he found out that Qiao Xi was the Fengyue God, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Although Qiao Xi felt that his reputation as a god was quite high, since he did not even have a place on Gaotian Plains after all, Sakura Demon felt that his master was so powerful that sooner or later he would have a place on Gaotian Plains.
——Of course, the more important thing is that she feels that if it is a god, he must look down on monsters like herself who have no special abilities.
At this time, the Sakura Demon, who had taken root in Qiao Xi's yard, couldn't help but feel very disappointed when she thought of this.
Qiao Xi's shrine is actually not big - he is just a god who was born twenty years ago, and even the believers are only people in this area. Although people have worked hard to enshrine Qiao Xi with a gorgeous shrine, however,
It is not easy to build an ancestral hall like this in such a remote place.
After all, Qiao Xi and Bu Yue did not live in the shrine.
With the help of monsters, he built a house behind the shrine.
It looks like an ordinary Japanese-style house, but because of the enthusiasm of the monsters, it was built quite large and the decoration was quite gorgeous.
So when Qiao Xi walked through the shrine and saw it for the first time, she almost thought she was in the wrong place.
——I just went out for a walk, and when I came back I found that my original cabin had been transformed into a gorgeous Japanese-style suite. No one could help but wonder if I had gone to the wrong place.
However, the cherry blossom monster in a pink kimono stood at the door with a smile, looked at him softly and said:
"Welcome back, sir."
——At that moment, Qiao Xi felt subtly that such a life felt good.
…
As a big boss (?) personally, Qiao Xi feels quite happy.
Anyway, currently, outside he has the Moon God to conquer the world for him (?), and inside he has the Sakura Demon to take care of everything for him. As a result, Qiao Xi's daily life is to sit under the corridor of the shrine and stare at the cherry blossom trees in the yard, drinking tea and being in a daze.
——Wait a minute, is there something wrong with suddenly entering old age?
cough.
As Sakurayo said, as a monster, especially a monster that lives a long time, it always yearns for the warmth of human beings.
"Sir, although you are not a human being, you are surprisingly warm."
Sakura Demon pursed her lips and served Qiao Xi a cup of scented tea, then sat down on her knees and said with a smile.
Qiao Xi naturally took the tea cup and took a sip, smiled and said nothing.
On this day, he was sitting in the yard thinking about life as usual. Seeing that he was bored, Sakura Demon ran over to chat with him.
Qiao Xi didn't like going out much when she was still a human, but even so, she had to go out every day to attend classes or be invited to go shopping by people she knew, so she could gain some popularity anyway.
However, since becoming Fengyue God, the most common people on this mountain are monsters. Occasionally, humans come to the shrine every once in a while to offer some food and fruits, but they will not sit down and talk to Qiao Xi.
——They just need an awe-inspiring existence on which they can place their faith. As for whether this existence is real or just imaginary, as human beings, they don't really care.
——Anyway, regardless of whether it is true or false, they have already determined it to be true.
It was determined that there was a god here who was aloof but could take care of humans. He could bring people a good harvest, so they called him the God of Harvest Moon.
Qiao Xi looked at the Sakura Demon kneeling beside the door and laughing, her thoughts wandered, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, indeed, it is very appropriate to plant a cherry blossom tree in the courtyard of a Japanese-style room.
For a long while, he seemed to be answering Sakura Demon's previous question, or it seemed to be a simple question:
"Sakura, it's obvious that you almost fell into depravity after being chopped off by humans. Why do you still feel that humans are warm beings even now?"
——Ying is Qiao Xi’s name for this cherry blossom demon. He didn’t ask his real name, he just called him “Ying”.
When Ying heard Qiao Xi's words, she was stunned for a moment. When she came back to her senses, there was a bit of nostalgia in her eyes.
"At the beginning, I was filled with hatred. Even though I was just an ordinary Sakura monster, during the years when humans enshrined them as a sacred tree, I worked very hard to bring them happiness.
Occasionally, there are humans who can see me. When they see me, they are either surprised or curious, but it is not like what I have heard before, that humans will destroy monsters when they see them."
"Although there are very few humans who can see me, when I get along with them, I can always feel a kind of warmth that is different from the monsters."
Sakura said and looked at Qiao Xi with a smile: "——Just like an adult."
Qiao Xi felt a little helpless.
This cherry blossom demon believed that Qiao Xi had brought him new life, so he liked and admired Qiao Xi very much.
——They were just like the star-chasers Qiao Xi had seen before, worshiping Qiao Xi as if they were gods.
——Although Qiao Xi is indeed a god now.
Qiao Xi glanced sideways at the swaying cherry blossom trees in the yard, blinked her eyes, and suddenly remembered something. After pondering for a while, she looked at Sakura hesitantly and asked, "Speaking of which, I don't have a divine messenger yet.
, do you want to think about it?"
cherry:"!!!"
Seeing the dull look on Ying's face, Qiao Xi thought he didn't want to, so she tilted her head and laughed: "Well, don't worry about it, it's just because another monster suggested this, so I just asked you. If you don't want to
if……"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Sakura standing up excitedly, and her forehead hit the edge of the door with a loud "bump".
