Fairy’s Box

World of Trees. Barren Hill Tribe

Due to the lack of sunlight, he gradually walked into the rotten jungle. A petite and beautiful figure was lightly shuttling among the dead vines and trees. From time to time, he would avoid the poisonous insects with amazing bouncing power and leap to the edge of the woods without stopping.

Ten minutes later, the tree elf carried a basket and trotted out of the woods.

Her name is Tama, and she is just over fifteen years old this year. She has the vigor and agility of a tree elf of her age, but she can only use it in the work of gathering moss.

That's right, collecting moss.

The barren hill tribe's food shortage has been going on for a long time. Their family has never eaten fresh fruit as early as a month ago, and now they can only eat some non-toxic moss.

Moreover, the non-toxic moss is starting to become less and less now, and it has been three days since Marta left home, and the basket in her hand is only half full.

Facing the dark sky, little Tamar sighed, wondering if her mother had eaten these days.

The cave not far ahead is Tama's home. In the past, because the entrance of the cave faced the sun and was far away from the earth, it was very comfortable to live in, but now it is a bit cold and humid.

But it's the same everywhere, even in the leader's cave, there can be no sunshine.

"Mom, I'm back!"

Marta pushed open the hidden wooden door, her delicate little nose suddenly wrinkled, she clearly smelled a fragrance in the air, it was her favorite fruit!

Could it be that he was hungry for too long and had hallucinations?

"Marta, you're finally back." Mom's voice came from the kitchen, sounding in a good mood. She had only heard such a voice before the sun went out.

"Look, this is your favorite tree fruit." At the same time as she spoke, a tree elf who was seven or eight similar to Tamar walked out of the kitchen. She was not tall and seemed to be just out of the age of a girl. Delicate like a painting.

"is this real?"

Little Marta cheered, picked up the slightly withered fruit, and took a bite.

"Good boy, eat quickly." Aisha gently stroked her daughter's hair and smiled tenderly as she watched her gobble up.

"Mom, where did this come from?"

Marta chewed violently and asked vaguely.

"Eat first, and mom will tell you after eating."

...

The tree elf girl immediately stopped chewing, with a hint of suspicion, staring at Aisha with big eyes without blinking: "Mom, every time you say this, you must be preparing to lie to me."

"You child..." A trace of embarrassment appeared on the face of the tree elf beauty.

"If you don't tell me, I won't eat it." Marta put down the fruit with a bulging cheek.

"Don't embarrass mom like that..."

"No, no, you have to tell me."

dong dong dong——!

Just as the mother and daughter were in a stalemate, there was a series of knocks outside the door, and the recently closed wooden door was pushed open, and a frivolous voice entered the room:

"Aisha, our account can't be delayed any longer."

"Oops, it's Raymond!"

Marta was shocked and threw down the fruit, but she did not waste her hands and feet like other tree elves of the same age, but tried her best to open her tender arms and protect her mother behind her.

The tree elf Raymond struttingly approached the house and glanced at little Marta, his eyes brighter and brighter:

"Yo, Marta, are you there too?"

"Bastard!"

"Bad guy? When you borrowed money from me, why didn't you call me a villain? If it wasn't for Raymond's kindness, would you two single mother and daughter survive for seven days?"

"..." Elsa lowered her hair silently.

"Also, I will confiscate a penny of interest on the debts you owe. How long has this been delayed?" Raymond glanced at the rare tree fruit in the wooden bowl, and the smile on his face solidified:

"This is your fault, isn't it, you can afford to eat the precious tree fruit, and you don't want to pay off your debts!?"

"I-I'll pay you back." Elsa raised her face and said softly.

"Hurry up! I'll wait."

Raymond narrowed his eyes contemptuously, if the mother and daughter could really afford it, he would not borrow it. However, his expression soon froze on his face, because the impoverished beauty of the tree elf actually brought out a pot of precious tree fruits.

"Here, give you."

Aisha weakly placed the tub at the opponent's feet.

how can that be!

Raymond roared angrily in his heart. He gave generously to the other party because he would not be able to repay the debt. The purpose was to force the mother and daughter to pay the debt in the name of asking for the debt in the future.

Now that they can actually pay their debts, how can their dream of being a "good dad" come true in the future?

No, no, no, there must be a problem! The two of them won't be able to get so many precious trees in ten years...unless...there is another secret!

"Where do so many precious trees come from? I'm going to report things of unknown origin." Raymond was unwilling to let them go, so he planned to make a fuss about the origin of the fruit.

"Mom will definitely not do bad things!" Marta said unconvincingly, she was also doubting the origin of so many fruits, but in front of the other party, she must not admit defeat.

"Yes, it was given by the leader..." Aisha said with flickering eyes.

"Master Chief?"

Raymond's aggressive momentum suddenly lost a lot, as if he had just met the tree elf in front of him, he looked up and down the other side for a while before saying meaningfully:

"I said why are you not afraid of me today? It turned out to be the leader, Aisha, I really misunderstood you... Is this worthy of your dead husband?"

"I didn't... I didn't..." Aisha blushed, but lowered her head in shame.

"Mom, you won't really..."

Marta's eyes widened, her pink lips pursed tightly, and her little face was full of disbelief.

"Since I am on the side of the leader, I don't dare to ask for this debt. I will give it to my wife." Raymond gave them a greedy look for the last time, and left in a dejected manner.

"It's not like this, you listen to mom to explain."

It wasn't until Raymond disappeared from sight that Aisha grabbed her daughter's little hand and explained hastily: "My innocence with the leader has nothing to do with me!"

"Then why did he give us so many things for nothing?"

"because……"

She murmured, and only when she saw her daughter looked like she was about to cry, she resisted and said shyly, "Mom is going to the world of humans, to be an actress for them."

"Human world!" Tama raised a pair of pointed ears, and her beautiful face was full of longing expressions.

In her childhood impression, human beings are evil, powerful and aggressive demon kings, and the human world is indeed a beautiful, bright, beautiful paradise full of birds and flowers.

Wait a moment!

The tree elf girl woke up instantly. Mommy is going to the human world, isn't it going to fall into the hands of those evil humans? Will they force their mom to marry them like bad guy Ramon? Even... forcing mom to be their slave?

"Silly boy, no."

Aisha saw through her daughter's mind at a glance, and said with a pretty blushing face:

"I heard from the leader that it is the most powerful tribe of human beings. It is about to form an alliance with our tree elves. Not only will they not bully us in the future, but they will also help us with food and exchange things with us."

"Really?" Marta said in disbelief.

"Really, the leader also said that as long as we tree elves go to help humans fight, we will each give 30 acres of land. It is said that there are other things called salaries and pensions, as long as you give them to the leader, you can exchange a lot. Lots of food."

I have to say that the tree elf leader of the Barren Hills tribe is a big black-hearted vampire. The subsidy of 50,000 sols for each tree elf warrior turns into direct aid food in his mouth. The rich salary that can be envied by ordinary Rosevians has to be handed over to him in exchange for food... Compared to this villain, Raymond just now is a ****!

"Aren't all humans bad guys? Why are you being so kind to us?" the elf asked innocently.

"Maybe we were too barbaric in the past... Human beings are still very civilized." The beauty of the tree elf said unconfidently. It was obvious that she had embarked on the road of completely denying the history of the tree elf.

"Then what is the actress that mother is going to do? Can you also get 30 acres of land?"

"It's not the same, the leader said, as long as we go to sing, dance, and talk to the great human beings, we can get a lot of salaries... It's the kind of thing that can exchange a lot of food."

"There's no land." Tamar's mouth rose in disappointment.

"No, the leader said that as long as we perform well and are welcomed by humans, he will promise to help me exchange land and live in the territory of great human beings."

"Land... the territory of the great human beings..."

The tree elf girl's eyes are sparkling, and her thoughts seem to have returned to her childhood... The swaying green leaves, the splashing water on the stream, the moonlight that moves synchronously with her in the silhouette of the trees, and the chirping of insects and Frogs croak.

The world of the great human beings must be more beautiful than the forest where he lived when he was a child. So, little Marta quickly made up her mind, grabbed her mother's hand, and said, coquettishly:

"Mom, I also want to be an actress."

"Really?"

Aisha hugged her daughter with a face full of surprise, and cried with joy, "I was worried that you didn't want to leave your hometown. It would be great to go with your mother."

Two tree fairies, one big and one small, are leaning against each other, looking forward to the future they are about to face.

"Mom, you said, the human world must be beautiful, right?"

"Well, it must be beautiful."

"Is there food that can't be eaten, spring water that can't be drunk, and a lot of beautiful clothes?"

"Well, mother will change new clothes for you every day."

"Sing and dance, can they like us?"

"Well, the leader said, in the eyes of humans, we are beautiful."

...

The mother and daughter, who were crippled and crippled by the leader of the barren hill tribe, have completely wandered in the fantasy of the future and the human world. In their eyes, there is everything they want, and there is the paradise of tree elves.

As everyone knows, there is only a thin line between heaven and **** for them.
