Chapter 13 Memories of the Vine Demon

The vine demon turned into a human form for the first time. He looked around and saw the big trees he had been entangled with. He couldn't help but said excitedly, "Old friend, I finally succeeded in practicing!" Then he lowered his head again. Looking at his own body, he felt a little ashamed because it was so naked, because he had seen some hunters who went hunting in this dense forest wearing clothes. So he looked at the fallen vine bark next to him and thought in his mind Wearing the clothes worn by humans, he stretched out his hand and the vine skin turned into a pair of brown-black clothes and a pair of shoes. After putting on the clothes and shoes, he felt satisfied and decided to wander around in the mountain forest where he had lived for thousands of years. change. As he was watching and walking, he heard movement behind him. He turned around and saw a huge tiger. He had seen this tiger before and had passed under his vines several times. He was not afraid, so he wanted to go over and say hello to the tiger, but the usually majestic tiger walked around him and walked away. Along the way, he encountered bears, wolves, foxes, and other animals of all sizes, but none of them hurt him, as if These animals can feel his energy in general.

Soon it was night, and it was so dark in the dense forest that it was hard to see. Although the vine demon's eyes can see things at night, they are still far inferior to those during the day. So he looked up at the big tree, jumped, and flew up to a very tall tree. The vine demon sat on the branch, looking at the full moon in the sky and the mountains in the distance. He wanted to see the outside world.

So, at dawn the next day, the vine demon decided to set off. Before setting off, he returned to the place where he once grew up and said to the big trees, "Thank you for your companionship over the years. I will come back to see you." "The leaves rustled, as if saying goodbye to him.

The vine demon flew over several mountains. Every time he reached a mountain, he stopped and walked around. He felt that all the mountains were about the same length, so he continued flying forward. It wasn't until he flew out of the mountains that he saw humans, in groups of twos and threes. Some were gathering wild fruits at the foot of the mountains, while others were farming. The vine demon observed these people curiously. He knew that he was an alien. In order not to arouse suspicion, he turned into a vine and wrapped it around the tree during the day. He watched how these villagers made fire, cooked, planted crops, and weaved. cloth. At night, he went to the roof again and saw people eating dinner from under the tiles, talking in twos and threes, and then sleeping. After observing this for several days, the vine demon flew forward at night. When dawn came, he did not dare to fly anymore. He was afraid that humans would see him, so he had to walk. He felt that walking was too slow, but there was nothing he could do. After walking for a while, he saw humans again. This time he saw a large number of troops. They were all wearing uniform clothes and practicing with spears. The vine demon suddenly became interested, transformed into a vine and wrapped itself around the tallest tree near the military camp to observe the soldiers. He saw a few soldiers who looked like leaders riding in and out, and the vine demon thought that he should also have a horse, so that he could ride in places with humans. So he observed where the stables were and carefully studied how they rode.

At night, the vine demon turned into a vine and spread to the stable. He saw two soldiers guarding the stable chatting. The vine demon transformed into two vine leaves. The vine leaves flew in front of the two soldiers. Suddenly, the soldiers smelled a smell. The aroma made me fall asleep. The vine demon led a tall brown horse out, jumped on its back, and rode it imitating the movements of those people during the day. The horse immediately started galloping. The vine demon was very happy. He felt that although the speed of the horse was faster than his own, the vine demon was very happy. The speed is far different, but it is much better than walking!

For the next few days, he rode on horseback. This day he came to a small county town, which was very lively with people coming and going. The vine demon had never seen such a lively place, and he was very excited. He decided to stay here for a few days. So during the day, he led his horse for a walk on the street. At night, he tied the horse to a place with grass and transformed into a fairy. White vines weave across the roof. After staying in the county for a few days, the vine demon learned how to use currency, how to make money, and how to communicate with people. I also knew that people here were divided into three, six, and nine grades. The vine demon liked this kind of human life very much, so he decided to live here.

Originally, the vine demon did not need to eat. All his nutrition came from the ground, but he wanted to integrate into human life. He worked as a coolie for a few days, but the money came too slowly. Although he was the strongest among the coolies and earned the most, compared with the rich, he still felt that the money was too little because he saw many poor people. Not even having enough to eat, he felt pity and wanted to help them through his own efforts. Later, Teng Yao learned that some pharmacies purchased medicinal materials, and he also learned which medicinal materials were valuable. Teng Yao was very happy. He thought that there were a lot of ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain where he grew up before. He felt that there were also ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum in the nearby mountains, so at night, Teng Yao He flew to a nearby mountain.

If humans are looking for wild ginseng, they have to rely on their eyes and luck. But the vine demon was different. He put his two hands on the ground, and his ten fingers immediately turned into ten vines and were inserted into the ground. The vines quickly spread in all directions. The vine demon closed his eyes and felt the ginseng and Every time I feel the scent of Ganoderma, the rattan in that place will burst out of the ground and come out with ginseng. In this way, in less than one night, the ginseng on the top of the mountain was harvested by the vine demon. The vine demon took out a bag, wrapped up more than 20 ginseng roots and five Ganoderma lucidum plants, and happily went down the mountain.

As soon as the pharmacy opened, the vine demon walked in and shouted to the waiter, "Call your shopkeeper. I want to sell ginseng!" As soon as the waiter heard that ginseng was being sold, and seeing that the man was tall and handsome, he didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly went to the back to invite the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper came, before he could say anything, the vine demon put the bag on the counter, opened the bag and asked the shopkeeper. Said "These are all sold, how much does it cost?"? When the shopkeeper saw so many ginseng and Ganoderma, he felt that he might have been dazzled early in the morning, so he picked up a ginseng and looked closely at it. He also smelled it with his nose from time to time, and picked up another Ganoderma. It took him a while to confirm that it was Really, and they were all over fifty years old, so he asked with a trembling voice, "May I ask this gentleman, where did these ginseng and Ganoderma come from?" The vine demon said in confusion, "I went up to the mountain to pick it. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"? The shopkeeper said, "Others may not be able to pick a single ginseng plant even if they go up the mountain ten times. You can tell at a glance that these ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum have just been picked. Have you discovered the ginseng nest?" After hearing this, the vine demon laughed and said, "Really." I picked them from the mountains, but I was just lucky. Shopkeeper, please quickly calculate how much these are worth!" The shopkeeper said nothing more and took an abacus to start calculating. . . After a while, the vine demon came out of the drugstore holding a small bag of silver.
