Dragon God, immortal

Heisong rubbed his face against Juanhua's palm, then went further and hugged Juanhua. The scene was very intimate and not suitable for children.

Su Ju rolled her eyes silently.

I'm a bit redundant at home!

Don't do this kind of thing in front of me! !

"Hey, the child is here..." Juanhua pushed Hei Song away at the right time and took out a comb to help him comb his messy hair... Because of the nature of his work, Hei Song's hair quality has always been very poor...

"Hold me for a while longer..." Hei Song hugged Juan Hua's shoulders and acted like a spoiled child. It was obvious that he was under a lot of pressure at work. He had a lot of work to do because he shouldered the responsibility of building the tribe...

Suju looked directly out the window.

Out of sight is pure.

Just like that, a light bulb lit up next to the couple for a long time before they reluctantly separated. Then Hei Song went to clean up the dishes and wine glasses...

Not long after, Hei Song finished packing, put on his backpack, said goodbye to Juan Hua gently, and left home resolutely... to work overtime.

"Your father only acts like a spoiled child when he's drunk," Juan Hua rubbed his cheek and said, "He's been very stubborn since he was a child. He doesn't like being combed, and he doesn't get close to people. That's why I allow him to drink a little during the day... He looks very funny, right?"

"Haha." Su Ju had a polite smile on her face. My birth was just an accident, right? Anyway, as long as you are happy...

"Oh, I really envy your generation of kids. I wish I were a cat person born in this era." Juan Hua sighed.

"So, Mom, what was life like for the cat-eared people in the past?" Su Ju lay on the table and shook her furry curly ears.

Su Ju knew very little about the tribe's past, and only occasionally heard a few things from Bai Lan and the other female cats.

Juan Hua was stunned for a moment after hearing this and sighed.

She slowly told Su Ju about the past of the Cat-Eared Tribe.

This is not a story about 'once upon a time'. The Cat-Eared Tribe was once just a small branch of the Beast-Eared Tribe of the East Continent. They lived in the forest and made a living by hunting and picking fruits.

However, the living conditions at that time were very poor. On average, for every three children born, one would die a violent death, one would starve to death, and one would barely survive.

At that time, the great grandmother of the Sanhua tribe stood up. She led the cat people of the clan to intermarry with other cat-ear tribes and gathered and unified the cat-ear tribes scattered in the forest. From then on, the Sanhua tribe no longer had pointed ears, long ears, round ears, or curled ears. The orange, black, brown, and white cat people were all the same cat people.

During those days, all cat people believed that the future would get better and better.

But reality is always cruel.

Humanity's wars affected them.

"...For a long time, the Beast-Eared Tribe were slaves and commodities bought and sold by humans. During the war, we were even pushed to the front lines, becoming the dead under humans' swords, magic, and artillery fire." Juan Hua recalled and Su Ju listened silently. The world in her mother's words was too cruel.

After that, the Sanhua tribe began to hide in the forest, and the total number of people dropped from hundreds to around two hundred. Fortunately, the cat people with cat claws and cat feet were difficult for humans to catch as long as they stayed in the forest.

After a period of time, the war between humans suddenly stopped, as their fallen enemies and dead comrades crawled out of their graves.

The coming of the Scourge of the Undead terrifies humans.

So they stopped killing each other.

But it was too late. There were always more dead people than living people. The overwhelming skeletons and wandering souls spread quickly, even forcing the cat-eared people in the forest out.

"... Later, there were only about a hundred people left in the Cat-Eared Tribe, and most of them were children and capable old people. In order to avoid natural disasters, we bought a ship from humans... Fortunately, many humans had similar ideas, so buying a ship was not that difficult at that time." Juan Hua sighed. Even so, they still paid a lot of price, and raising the price on the spot is also a common practice for humans.

The surviving daughter of Sanhua's grandmother, Juanhua's mother, fought alongside Heimong's mother and the others, and both died on the day the undead invaded the dock.

The shaky little boat carrying hope sank into the boundless ocean.

There is no need to say much about what happened later. The kind-hearted Earth Dragon God accepted the cat-eared tribe.

Shushan gave the cat-eared people knowledge.

It is like the light bestowed by God to mankind.

The cat-ear tribe has since entered a peaceful era, with everything revived, plenty of food and clothing, and a promising future... Well, population is a big problem, there must be a sufficient population base to produce enough wizards...

As the saying goes, magic is the primary productive force. Perhaps for a long time in the future, the cat-ear tribe will need to rely on wizards for production. Both the watchers and the production teams will need wizards, so...

"Okay, okay, stop, stop, stop!" Su Ju suddenly reacted after hearing this, "Are you going to urge me to find a partner again? No, I'm still young, there's no need to be so anxious now!"

"Oh? Really? Don't you have anyone you like?"

"No! Those little boy cats are so childish!"

"I see. You like cat people who are more mature than you. That's not a problem. Just do as you like." Juan Hua nodded and did not interfere with his daughter's preferences.

"It doesn't have to be the mature type. It's also okay to be as childish as dad..." Su Ju coughed twice when she said this, "Ahem, no, I really can't be like dad, sorry."

"Haha." Juan Hua had a motherly smile on her face. She actually liked people who were younger than her.

"Well, do I have to find a husband?" Su Ju scratched her ear, looking reluctant.

"Don't worry, you can also do an internship in the fields and forestry farms for a while, or go to Mianlong Valley with your father to study... The times are right, and you are still young, so you can take your time."

Juan Hua is very peaceful.

She is not urging marriage, but...

"Eh... No! Everything else is fine, but if I want to do dirty work like my dad..." Su Ju looked at her pure white hair and said, "I don't want to!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. All the jobs in the tribe are of the same nature, either related to agriculture and forestry or civil engineering. What other job can you do? Ah, it's also possible to raise cattle and sheep with the traditional old cat people?" Juan Hua smiled, covering his mouth.

"Are there any other options? Can I study potions with you? Or, or... Oh, right! I can be a witch! And be Master Shushan's assistant!"

Juan Hua raised the corners of his eyes slightly.

The plan is going well.

It was worth the preparation she had made before. In Su Ju's eyes, being a priestess for the Dragon God was a very peaceful job. But in reality...

"Since you said so yourself, I will tell Lord Shushan." Juan Hua smiled slightly. He finally tricked this little girl. It's not easy for me!

Su Ju looked at her mother's smile and shuddered involuntarily...

This feeling... Did I make the wrong choice...

. . . . . .

There is no doubt that she made the wrong choice!

Being Mr. Shushan's assistant is nothing different from any other job!

It's still agriculture, forestry and civil engineering after all! I should have known this earlier! How can it be easy for Master Shushan! He's busy every day!

"Ah, but it's quite quiet here..." Su Ju shook her ears and squatted to pollinate a small flower of spring grass, "There are only two cat people around including me..."

This is Shushan’s experimental field.

There are currently no plans to cultivate crops.

Therefore, Jinju used it to grow potions and used it as teaching materials for the Watcher Academy.

Oh yes, Jinju is the dean of the Watcher Academy. Although she herself does not want to admit this identity, Suju knows that Jinju is indeed an excellent Watcher and only she can be the Watchers' teacher.

Jinju is very proficient in both potions and magic. When faced with a harmful bird that is bigger than a cat-man, she dares to rush up and beat it up.

"It's great that you know so many magic tricks. If I saw such a big harmful bird, I probably wouldn't be able to run away..." Su Ju stretched lazily. Today's work ended here!

Next, it's time to eat! Apart from other things, the land here is definitely more fertile than other places! And there's no need to worry about rust disease! It's great!

Just at this moment, Shushan came back.

He crawled beside the experimental field.

He lay down and yawned.

"Lord Shushan, where have you been? You're so dirty again!" Suju ran to Shushan, stomped her feet, and complained.

“Hahaha, there’s nothing I can do about it. It’s just my physical condition.” Shushan laughed, “So, you don’t have to help me bathe every month. It will get dirty soon anyway.”

"That won't work. Lord Shushan, the mud on your body can be used to grow potions of the same level as Yangchuncao Mengyehua. For your purity and for my mother's and my experiments, please don't be so lazy! Anyway, you just have to lie down and you don't have to do anything!" Suju pouted.

"Well, okay then." Shushan couldn't persuade the little white cat. In fact, he also enjoyed taking a bath.

However, Su Ju naturally couldn't bathe a creature as big as Shushan by herself.

She still had to wait for Jinju to come back and use magic to help clean and polish the Earth Dragon God.

"That's great, magic... It would be great if I could use that magic..." Su Ju sighed. She only knew one magic, [Magic of Communicating with Living Beings]. "Master Shushan, what exactly is magic? What principle does it rely on?"

"Hmm... That's a really good question..." Shushan scratched the moss on his cheek.

This question is like asking you 'how do you breathe'.

For Shushan, magic is like an instinct.

He hasn't studied the deeper level yet...

. . . . . .

A Brief History of the Cat's Paw Islands:

In the spring of the 46th year of the Dragon God Calendar, the pure white priestess Su Ju officially took office and became the assistant of the Dragon God Shu Shan.

She asked the Dragon God a century-old question: What exactly is magic?

Chapter 29: The magic revolution has begun. In addition, the fire dragon god plutonium will die.

"I can't answer this question." Shushan sighed.

"Eh? Eh hey hey!! There's something that Lord Shushan doesn't know!" Su Ju's head buzzed with shock.

“To know what you know and to admit what you don’t know is also a kind of wisdom…It is not shameful to admit that you don’t understand something, and it is foolish to pretend to know when you don’t.” Shushan said.

To be honest, he really doesn't understand the essence of magic!

His magic is all God's power!

God knows nothing about magic!

After Su Ju was shocked, she became depressed. Could it be that magic really is something that selects people?

"However, there is one thing I can be sure of, that is, most cat-people who cannot use magic simply have no magical power. In theory, all living beings with souls can control and use magic to a certain extent." Shushan comforted.

His scales contain magic power. Shields made of scales can enhance the magic of the watchers. If they are carefully blessed and infused with specific magic power, even Su Ju's mother can use magic.

It is the dragon scale comb. To use human terms, that comb is a magic prop, and magic props are not picky about people.

This proves from the side that those cat people who cannot use magic simply lack magic power.

"You need to find the answer to this question yourself." Shushan said.

"Oh..." Su Ju was stunned, but this is at least a research direction.

. . . . . .

After finding the direction.

Many problems can be easily solved.

Shushan is the largest source of magic power in the Cat’s Paw Islands. In the eyes of the Cat’s Ears, he is also considered an alternative...resource?

"Hey! That's it!" Su Ju wiped the sweat off her face. Her white hair was stained with dirt, but there was nothing she could do about it. She couldn't avoid getting her clothes dirty when she was absorbed in her work.

Her mother once said that even if the soil under Lord Shushan's feet was not more fertile than other soils, its products would not be much worse than those of the black soil.

According to Su Ju's observation...

This phenomenon disappears occasionally...

Well, especially after Shushan took a bath and his scales were completely polished, turning into [Shushan·Buffed and Polished Limited Edition], the soil under his feet was normal.

So, she shared this discovery with Juanhua, who assigned her a task, which was to collect the silt from Shushan's body, and then... make it into nutrient pots to plant Yangchuncao, Yeyehua, Blinding Grass and Heartbreak Moss!

The so-called nutrient pot is made by using fertilizer or other nutrients to form a small flower pot, and then seeds are stuffed into it for growing seedlings.

On the Palm Ball Island, the four kinds of magic potions, namely, Flame Flower, Ice Crown Flower, Earthbind Root and Storm Vine, have been officially put into agricultural production and processed and utilized, becoming indispensable necessities in the ecology of the Cat-ear Tribe. However, the other magic potions are not yet available.

Well, not to mention the Flame Flower and the Ice Crown Flower, the glue made from the concentrated juice of the Earthbound Root is an excellent building material with extremely high hardness and high temperature resistance, and the fiber of the Storm Vine is the best material for weaving cloth and ropes...

So, the potion farm just produced a batch of potions...

It was released by the processing department...

There is totally insufficient supply!

"The same goes for the spring grass. As a potion with a medium mana consumption, it is difficult for it to germinate even in a fertile potion field..."

Su Ju grabbed a handful of mud in front of her, stuffed the seeds of the angelica into it, and then squeezed it into a mud ball. Well, this was a simple nutrient pot.

"...But, under the feet of Master Shushan, it grows as fast as weeds...Is it because the mud from Master Shushan fell to the ground that the land gained magic power?"
