Dragon God, immortal

There was a serious expression on his face.

Shushan nodded. The forest farm he had planted before, as well as the forest farm he replanted later, had all grown to a large scale under his influence. Therefore, opening up part of the forest land for farmland would not have much impact on the ecology.

So he had no objection to this. The more fields the Cat-Eared Tribe had, the more fine grains he could eat every year. It was a good thing for both parties.

"Um... Lord Shushan..." A weak voice floated from not far away. Juan Hua kept his head still, but turned his ears behind him, "Excuse me, can we raise fish?"

Shushan lowered his head slightly and found that it was Hei Song who had put his clothes in order. He subconsciously glanced at Juan Hua... Well, Juan Hua's ears began to turn red again...

"It's too early for you to start fishing now. Wouldn't it be better to go out to sea and fish?" Shushan asked in return.

"We have no experience in shipbuilding..." Hei Song said ashamedly.

"Oh?" Shushan raised his eyebrows slightly. He felt that Heisong had something else to say.

"If you allow, can we try to build a boat with the wood cut down to open up new farmland?" Hei Song shook his big ears and said. As a reserve member of the production team, he naturally understood the current needs of the tribe!

"Sure, but don't you still have to be Juanhua's assistant? Is it really a good idea to distract yourself from shipbuilding?" Shushan asked with a blink.

"!"*2, Juan Hua and Hei Song's heads banged at the same time, their little heads buzzing...

Lord Shushan has found out about their affairs!

Chapter 15: Combing hair, and daily life that has not yet collapsed...

The winter solstice dinner is over.

Shushan returns to Tegenkyu Island.

In the next one hundred days, this land and he will rest. Well, in short, it means taking a vacation. Even if he doesn't feel tired when standing on the ground, he will still feel lazy...

The Earth Dragon God is also a living being, and no matter how powerful a creature is, it needs to live a life with a balance between tension and relaxation!

"That being said, now is not the time to rest..." Shushan lay in front of Tegenkyujima's nest.

His nest was very similar to the old one, both were slightly sunken flat ground with no shelter above the head.

Well, Shushan doesn't like scenes where the top of his head is covered.

Whether it's sun or rain...

He can enjoy it...

"Oh, I almost forgot." Shushan had just laid down for a short while, and before the sleepiness had even finished its rotation in his mind, he stood up again and walked towards the watchtower not far away.

There are more than a dozen watchtowers next to the large fields of Tegenkū Island. Those places are the workplaces of the watchmen, and their role is equivalent to "scarecrows" to scare away harmful birds and animals.

The function of the watchtower near the experimental field is the same, but unlike the large field where several cat people share one watchtower, this watchtower is only used by one watchman, Kumquat.

"Good morning, Kumquat, how did you sleep?"

Shushan saw Kumquat doing morning exercises from afar.

Judging from the direction from which Jinju returned, she should have gone to the three stone gates in the east early in the morning to watch the sunrise.

"Hello, Lord Shushan. I had a dreamless night." Jinju stopped jumping and answered respectfully.

Shushan nodded, and used magic to take out a shield and a comb from the weeds on his shoulder. Both of these things were carved out of scales by him. "Here, these are the medals of all the watchers who have served for five years... and these are the rewards for helping my assistant... These should have been grandly distributed at the Winter Solstice Party. So, you still don't want to go back to the Palm Island this year?"

"Shield? May I ask, which watcher did not receive the shield reward?" Jinjue blinked, not seeming surprised.

"Juanhua didn't, because she didn't fulfill the combat duties of a watcher. Compared with the other four of the same period, her accumulation was not enough... But she got a comb, which is much rarer than a shield." Shushan nodded and said.

Sure enough, Jinju saw the scene of carving the shields before, so she knew there were only four of them.

But I probably didn’t see it when I was carving the comb, because this thing is too easy to be scrapped...

Shushan has failed many times...

There are only two of these...

As for the reason why he didn't give Juanhua the shield, the first one was naturally the reason he just mentioned, and the second one was that Juanhua's magic power was too low to resonate with his scales, so it would probably be difficult for him to pick up that kind of shield.

The density of his scales is very high, higher than the densest metal. Although it is only a half-body shield, it has the weight of a metal tower shield. If you don't have enough strength, you can't use it...

Well, magic is also a kind of power. The magic used by the Watchers is of the same origin as Shushan, so Shushan's scales are very good magic conductors for them. As long as they stand on the ground, the dragon scale shield can spontaneously remove the weight with the help of magic...

However, the mass remains after removing the weight. If you want to use the Dragon Scale Shield, your physical fitness must be above a certain level.

Only the Watcher who has been studying for five years...

To use the Dragon Scale Shield...

This was Shushan's judgment. Even if he gave Juanhua a dragon scale shield, she could only put it at home as a decoration!

"But, this comb can also play a similar role. Holding it will resonate with the surrounding plants and trees, and can represent a part of my magic." Shushan introduced them one by one.

"Huh? In that case, isn't this comb very precious? Commanding plants? This, this is the most core power of Lord Shushan!" Jinju was frightened while holding the comb in his hand.

“Well, it’s not about the core or not, both sides are my powers…it’s better to say that the power carried by the Dragon Scale Shield is what I’m most proficient in, so it’s the easiest to make.” Shushan scratched his cheek.

Jin Jue probably misunderstood something, because he rarely used [Humus Black Soil Magic] and [Command Plant Magic] in front of others, so they were regarded as some kind of core secret power that could not be revealed...

But in fact, it is only because it has not been fully developed that it is rarely used on a large scale. It is only used in experimental fields...

"Is it really possible for me to hold two medals at the same time..." Jinju muttered with his head down.

"You are the most dedicated worker, so don't underestimate yourself." Shushan nodded in agreement.

Kumquat's work as a watchman is obvious to all.

It was reassuring to have her help when Juan Hua was not around.

After a pause, Shushan continued to introduce the functions of these two things to Jinju... He had already explained these things once at the Winter Solstice Dinner, and now he was just repeating them.

The dragon scale shield is blessed with three magics: crushing rocks, gathering mud and sand, and repelling all things. However, the dragon scale shield itself does not have magic power, and the user must have magic power.

The comb is blessed with two magics, humus black soil and commanding plants, and has a little bit of the magic power of the tree mountain. Even if the magic power is exhausted, it will recover over time.

Of course, these magic...

The effect is far inferior to Shushan's own performance...

Perhaps it has a great effect on the cat-eared people, but in fact, it is just like that. For people who know the corresponding magic, the bonus is only a mere 10% or 20%.

"...That's it. The comb can quickly decompose organic matter, or make crops grow more actively. The range of effect is about this large. With full magic power, it can be used three to five times in a row." Shushan drew a circle at Kumquat's feet, with a radius of about ten meters.

"It can't even cover half an acre of land." Jinju used a comb to draw a circle in front of him. The weeds in the circle grew rapidly and were several centimeters taller than the surrounding ones.

"If it were an ordinary farmer, this range would definitely not be enough, but Juanhua has her plans, and I think this comb is very suitable for her." Shushan said.

"What is this comb called?"

"Actually, I haven't thought about it yet..."

Shushan scratched the dragon's horn, and the green branches and leaves on the horn moved in the wind... Well, Dragon Scale Shield is named based on the material and purpose. Almost every Watcher will have one in the future, so this name is very good.

But even in the future, Shushan will not give out many of these combs, so there is no rush to name them...

The material is dragon scale...

The shape of a comb...

"Well, Lord Shushan, in the tradition of the cat-ear tribe, combing hair is an intimate act, and giving combing tools as a gift has the same meaning." Jinju looked up and blinked.

"Ah? So there is another meaning behind this, eh... Juan Hua shouldn't have misunderstood, right?" Shu Shan raised his eyes and thought for a moment. Juan Hua was like a student to him, and the comb he gave her was more like a medal than a gift...

"I don't think so. Juanhua is very smart but slow to understand other people's feelings." Jinju said with a smile.

"You can see that she's both smart and silly. She usually hides her childishness in front of me, and appears to be smart and capable, but in private she's actually quite naive." Shushan nodded in agreement.

"She has grown up without me noticing..." Jinju touched the dragon scale shield and comb and sighed...

It has been five years since I went on the ocean trip.

The Ball Island has become the second home of the Cat-Eared Tribe.

By surviving in such a place, when the next generation or the next generation of cat-eared people is born, the undead disaster in the old hometown will be gradually forgotten, right?

"But is it really okay for you to stay like this?" Shushan tilted his head slightly, looking at Jinju with his emerald dragon eyes, "Don't you feel lonely if you keep avoiding your tribe members?"

"Well... Actually it's good. Grandma Sanhua has been kind to me, but the tribe is prejudiced against me. I feel more relaxed living here... In short, I'm satisfied as long as I can watch Xiao Juanhua grow up..." Kumquat said with a sigh.

What's more, you, Lord Shushan, are here with me.

Every day is very fulfilling.

It doesn't necessarily mean you're lonely.

This is what Jinju thought... She had been unable to fit in with the sociality of cat people for a long time, so she had the desire to live alone in the mountains. Although she can't be called living alone now, living by the 'mountain' is not bad...

"Oh, really? If that's your idea, then I'm relieved." Shushan said with relief, "In fact, I'm quite afraid of loneliness. After all, for my species, a season passes by in one sleep. If I don't have a companion to serve as a reference, I will probably forget the time without realizing it."

"That's why you record the calendar..." Jinju touched the dragon scale shield again. The touch of dragon scales was like touching a tree or a mountain... Lord Dragon God is also a solitary guy.

"Dragon God Calendar, it has been 30 years since the Dragon God Calendar. You should be 31 years old this year, right?" Shushan said after thinking for a while.

"Yes, where is Lord Dragon God?"

"I'm thirty this year."

"Thirty... Eh? Thirty? One year in the Dragon God Calendar is the day you were born?!" Jinju didn't react at first, and then a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and he instantly understood the reference of the Dragon God Calendar - it was Shushan's own age!

"Yes, you are older than me! Although other cat-eared people think that I am over a hundred or a thousand years old, otherwise how could I master so much profound knowledge, but in fact... there is no actual connection between knowledge and age." Shushan tapped the ground with his claws awkwardly. In fact, he was just a little dragon who had just reached adulthood!

He had a vague feeling that he would complete the 'adulthood' stage in the near future, and that by then he might undergo some major changes.

"It's unbelievable... Lord Shushan actually..." Jinju was shocked. He couldn't associate the huge dragon in front of him with the cat-man of his younger brother's level...

"I'm only telling you this, don't tell anyone else!" Shushan said with narrowed eyes.

"I swear as a watcher! I will never tell anyone else!" Jinju quickly expressed his opinion.

This is information that threatens our faith...

It would be terrible if others knew about it...

However, although Shushan said this verbally, he didn't really care about it in his heart, and he didn't care about any beliefs.

He knew that his current age was not that important. In ten, a hundred, or a thousand years, there would be no cat-people older than him.

"Well, it's a rare winter holiday." Shushan changed the subject and said, "You have a serious attitude towards work. Do you want any reward?"

"As for the rewards, I already have them..." Jinju said as he looked at the dragon scale shield and comb in his arms.

"Salary, merit, and bonus, these three should be given separately, right?" Shushan said.

"Even if you say so, I don't want anything in particular..." Jinju tilted her head and thought about it. If there was anything she wanted in particular, it would probably be a child, right? But she couldn't say such a request, because in the customs of the cat-ear tribe, it was a proposal.

"Subordinates who have no desires or demands will make their superiors feel uneasy..." Shushan said with a chuckle. Jinju's performance was really great, and it would be a bit unreasonable not to reward him...

"If your attitude is so tough... I do have something I want to do!" Jinju's eyes lit up and he looked up at Shushan.

"Oh, what is it?"

"How long has it been since you last showered?"

"Well... I haven't washed since the end of the summer ocean air mass..." Shushan recalled the heavy rain six months ago. Because Tegenkuma Island is located in the tropics, in certain seasons, rain clouds will not turn into rain, but into something like fog...

Giving Shushan a bath is a rather troublesome matter. The weeds on his body will turn into black soil mud under his unconscious magic... When they pile up, there will be no peculiar smell, but they will attract other plant seeds to take root in the mud...

"I just happened to get a powerful 'farm tool'. Please let me help you clean your body!" Jinju held up the shield, stood up with a 'hey' sound and said.

"Eh...ah...thank you for trouble, but don't force yourself. It's okay if you don't clean it. This is my physiological structure anyway, I'm used to it..." Shushan said, scratching his cheek. He also knew that he was very sloppy in a sense, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"Don't worry, the cat-ear tribe is very good at grooming their hair!" Jinju ran to Shushan's tail and ran to his back along the comfortable climbing route.

"Well then..." Shushan crawled down helplessly. Not to mention the difficulty of cleaning, his size was not something that could be easily taken care of...

. . . . . .

"Ah, it hurts..."

Heisong covered his ears, closed his eyes and cried out in pain.

Juanhua was shocked and withdrew his hand, then sat aside with his hands on his hips. It turned out to be Heisong's first time!

The round-eared guy is arrogant, and rarely combs his hair by other cat people, right? Even if his mother or other aunts help comb his hair, he will dodge away with a whine!

"Just be patient for a moment! Your hair is all tangled! How long has it been since you combed your hair?" Juan Hua was holding up the comb angrily. The dragon scale comb has the power of the dragon god and can effectively expel pests that parasitize the hair!

The curly birch, which is accustomed to the environment of the Togenqiu Island, naturally cannot accept the black pine with dirty hair!

You must clean your body before living together!

You are so dirty as a man!
