I’m a Witch In Dongying

"Um...no problem. Do you have any other requests you want to make of me?"

"No... it's already a great honor to be your shikigami..."

The peach tree demon's response was humble.

Since this is the case, Bai Shuiqiu didn't want to force the latter to make a request to himself, so he nodded: "Okay, let's start to conclude the contract."

"May need to borrow a little blood from you."

While talking, Bai Shuiqiu raised the fingertip of his right index finger, attached a wisp of spiritual power to it, made a cut in the trunk of the peach tree demon, and then dipped it in the bicolor juice gurgling from it, and used his hand to make a pen. , Slowly outline a string of ancient runes on the trunk of the Peach Dryad.

Then, he pressed the tips of the ten fingers of both hands together, made a gesture similar to a pyramid, and recited the mantra silently.

During this process, a light blue light slowly expanded from her fingertips, enveloping the peach tree demon on the opposite side.

Then, a few lines of ancient runes appeared in the air, quietly circulating in a special rhythm.

These runes are the three restrictions set by Bai Shuiqiu.

Under the effect of [Contract Art], the content of restriction is presented in a form beyond words, and can be understood by Bai Shuiqiu and Peach Tree Monster at the same time. The latter stood silently in place, without showing any resistance. After half a minute, these bleak brilliance gradually dimmed.

Until this moment, the art of the peach tree demon slowly sank into the stump.

at the same time……

On the palm of Bai Shuiqiu's left hand, an inverted herringbone-shaped sapling appeared next to the pale blue paw print belonging to the wind raccoon.

The contract has been made.

In the dark, Bai Shuiqiu felt a weak connection between himself and the Peach Tree Monster, as if he could perceive the other's thoughts through his mind.

"By the way, did the former wind raccoon sign the contract according to this technique?"

Then, what constraints did the system put on it at that time?

Bai Shuiqiu glanced at the wind raccoon next to him, with a slight movement in his mind, he looked at the peach tree demon again: "You should still be able to transform into a human form? If you go out with me like this, it might be a little inconvenient..."

"It can be changed... but only a little bit..."

As he spoke, the demon power beneath Da Taoshu's body slowly surged.

Under the gaze of Bai Shuiqiu and Fengli, they could see that the figure of the latter shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually transformed into a humanoid silhouette in a group of pink-white light.

It's about one meter six meters tall.

As for the body...

Probably because it has just been transformed into a demon body, even after the peach tree demon is transformed into a human form, there are still a lot of traces of trees on the body. In addition to the slightly rough light green skin, you can clearly see the tree lines. The veins, like human blood vessels, exist below the surface of the peach tree monster.

But it's okay.

At least not the half-tree, half-human "tree man" image in Western mythology. The peach tree monster in front of me, except for its weird skin color, has its torso very close to human...

also……

The peach tree demon was also covered with a layer of light pink gauze.

This thing looks like it is made of countless peach blossom petals, clustered together and intertwined, woven into a clothes-like appearance, covering the whole body of the peach tree demon, but because the "cloth" is a little bit scarce, Therefore, the lower abdomen of the upper body and the knees of the lower body are all exposed to the air.

These are all good things to say.

After all, the time when the Peach Tree Demon really cultivated to become a spirit was only the last half a month.

The mastery of this spell of transformation is not strong enough, so it is normal that it cannot completely cover up the traces of the tree monster. After waiting for a while, its demon power has stabilized, and it should be able to transform into a normal human appearance like an old monster.

only……

"I said, can you change it?"

Bai Shuiqiu twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and said unnaturally.

The face that appeared in front of her surprisingly had a face similar to her own.

If you don’t take into account the differences in skin color, or if it is taken with a black and white camera, it is likely to be mistaken for twin sisters.

Moreover, the humanoid Peach Tree Demon is a few centimeters taller than her, and Bai Shuiqiu needs to raise her head slightly to see her face...

"Ah, don't you like this look..."

The peach tree demon's expression was a little frightened:

"Well, because I have been in that valley before, almost how I have been in contact with humans. The last time I saw humans in the valley was decades ago, so I don’t know what humans should look like... …If you think this kind of look is not good, I can change into another look..."

While talking, the peach tree demon's body was surging with monster power again.

After a while.

A face similar to Keiko Kamishiro appeared in front of Bai Shuiqiu.

"..."

Bai Shuiqiu pursed his lips and said nothing.

The Peach Tree Monster carefully observed her face, and then aroused her demon power and changed once more, and this time it turned out to be the appearance of Jiufeng Ziyuan.

However, the old monster has a unique temperament. The Peach Tree Monster can only change a similar face, and even if he doesn't observe it carefully, he won't mistake him for a person.

"Forget it, you should change back to the way you started..."

Bai Shuiqiu sighed, and said with his forehead.

It seems that the transformation ability of the Peach Tree Demon is a bit similar to the "copying" in painting, and it needs a reference object as a template.

The Thunder Valley is remote and has frequent thunder and lightning all the year round. Except for occasionally a few unlucky people who are killed by thunderbolts, most people will never go to such a place. In the past few decades, the peach tree demon has seen only a handful of people. The ones who can be called a little familiar are Bai Shuiqiu who fought in the valley a few days ago.

It's okay to become Keiko Kandaji, after all, the similarity is about half, and this girl shouldn't care too much.

But the old monster...

This is a powerful thousand-year old demon, if he knows that he has been replaced by a counterfeit, he is afraid that he will burn the peach tree demon with a torch...

"Let's look for some nice pictures of girls from the Internet, and let the Peach Tree Monster pick the one you like and change it..."

"etc……"

If you remember correctly, the peach tree species seems to be hermaphrodite, right? The peach tree demon in front of you... does it really have a concept of gender?

Thinking of this, Bai Shuiqiu glanced suspiciously at the chest of the Peach Tree Demon.

Well, it's flat...

But this is not conclusive evidence.

And considering that this guy's body is just a tree, it doesn't make much sense to entangle whether his gender is male or female. Compared with this, it's better to consider another question first...

"By the way, do you have a name?"

"Not yet... If Master Qiu is willing to give me a name... it would be great..."

As the Peach Tree Demon said, she looked over expectantly.

"Well, let's talk about it next time."

Bai Shuiqiu scratched his head.

She is not good at naming other people, and for monsters, there is a certain degree of attention to things like names. It is not a good thing for both parties to randomly pick one up, so before clarifying the joints, let’s put it aside. It's better to put it aside.

Although the Peach Tree Fairy was a little bit lost, he didn't say anything.

A few minutes later.

Bai Shuiqiu returned to the outside of the woods.

"... That's the situation in general."

"This girl is the peach tree demon. She fought with me in it just now, and now she has been subdued by me as a shikigami."

In front of Mishima and others, Bai Shuiqiu briefly explained what happened in the woods.

Her original intention of coming here was to get rid of the monsters, but inexplicably, she received a shikigami for herself, let alone Mishima and others, even her own party was a little bit embarrassed. However, all of them knew their identities. They just listened to Bai Shuiqiu's words silently, and nodded as accepting this fact.

Then, Bai Shuiqiu briefly confessed the situation in the woods, and threw all the aftermath to them, and left the block with the peach tree monster and the wind raccoon.

All the way back to Tianmu Mountain.

While walking up the mountain along the path, Bai Shuiqiu paused: "Do you dryads usually need to eat and sleep? Do you need to arrange a separate room for you?"

The wind raccoon before, has no shape and is about the same size as a pet cat, so just keep it in the bedroom.

But the peach tree demon...

Regardless of whether it is in body or in human form, this guy is a little bigger, and Bai Shuiqiu must be unable to sleep in his bedroom, and she has no habit of sharing a bed with others.

"unnecessary……"

The Peach Tree Monster shook his head: "Our trees don't need to eat... we just need to absorb nutrients from sunlight and soil... If Master Qiu doesn't mind, please let me stay in the woods on this mountain... "

"is this OK?"

Bai Shuiqiu was a little sad.

When there was no relationship with each other before, the Peach Tree Fairy did not care about her, but now, since the two parties have signed the contract, she must take on her responsibility as the master.

"OK."

"Well then... there is a forest on the back of my shrine, not far from my bedroom, and the surrounding soil is fairly fertile, so just stay there first."

Mime private 595

At the entrance of his shrine, Bai Shuiqiu stopped, and then took the peach tree monster around the back of the shrine and came to the forest.

"That's it."

"OK."

The peach tree demon nodded in response, and then walked slowly forward for a short while, staying in a clearing between the trees, once again turning into a physical image.

Accompanied by the scene of a piece of roots squirming on the ground.

Only a few minutes later.

A big peach tree more than ten meters high took root in this forest, and even the breath seemed to blend in with the surrounding woods. If it weren't for the pink and white peach blossoms, it would appear too dazzling among the surrounding greenery trees, and most people would not notice its existence even if they passed by here occasionally.

"Tomorrow in the daytime, please tell Rie Asakura about the peach tree monster..."

Bai Shuiqiu thought so, waved his hand with the Peach Tree Monster, then turned and walked back to the inner room.

It's already past ten o'clock.

In normal times, at this point in time, Chiyo should have gone back to the room to sleep.

But today’s situation seems a bit special. When Bai Shuiqiu pushed the door into the house from the outside, she saw her grandmother and his wife sitting in the living room, gathering together and chatting, and hearing the sound of the door shaft turning, Chiyo and Shirasui turned their heads and looked over at the same time: "It's Xiaoqiu who is back..."

"Nothing happened outside, right?"

"no."

Bai Shuiqiu shook his head, and then smiled faintly: "Sorry, I came back a little late, which worried the elders."

"Nothing, we happen to be talking about something here..."

When he said this, Chiyo glanced at Baishui Jiashi, and fell silent for a while, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed when the words reached his lips:

"It's getting late, Xiao Qiu, since you have come back safely, go to bed early, and you will be busy tomorrow."

"Well, you should rest earlier."

Bai Shuiqiu's gaze swept across the faces of several adults. He probably guessed something in his heart, but his face was silent, he bowed his body for a moment, and walked through the living room, all the way back to his bedroom. . I took my pajamas and went to the bathroom for a brief wash, and then went to bed.

It was the next day in a blink of an eye.

This morning, Bai Shuiqiu first called Fujiwara Nanami, told the story of last night, and asked about the situation on Lantern Mountain by the way.

After getting all the unharmed answers from the latter, he called Rie Asakura again.

After all, the information about the peach tree demon was revealed to her by Rie Asakura, and now that the tree demon has been taken as a shikigami by herself, he should have notified the latter if it is reasonable or reasonable.

and……

Regarding how to raise the Peach Tree Fairy, she also has some questions to ask the latter.

"... The tree monsters are relatively rare among the monsters, and even fewer are subdued by humans as shikigami. The habits of this type of monsters are actually quite simple, basically as long as they are stocked, they will absorb themselves. The sun and moon brilliance and the nutrients in the earth are used to temper one's own cultivation skills."

"Then, don't you need to water or fertilize?"

"Once it becomes a demon, the life level has been separated from ordinary plants, and ordinary water and fertilizer have limited effects on it.
