Time passes little by little, and the moonlight gradually dims. This is the darkness before dawn, and it is also the time when humans sleep the deepest.

Just when Wayne thought he was going to be in vain tonight.

I don't know if it was due to the luck attribute, but with his keen eyesight, he suddenly saw a child's palm sticking out of the mouth of the well, pawing at the edge of the well.

Wayne's eyes narrowed. His guess was indeed correct. The monster did come out of the well.

However, he did not act rashly, but quietly hid in the dark, hoping to take this opportunity to see what this monster wanted to do.

After more than ten seconds, a metal watering can was thrown out from the mouth of the well, and then a little thing with purple skin, a wreath on its head, and a pair of big watery eyes crawled out of the well.

Wayne took a closer look, and sure enough, he guessed correctly. The source of this incident was really a little earth spirit, and a very young one at that.

This discovery made Wayne breathe a sigh of relief. Compared with those demon spirits or other monsters, the little land spirit is definitely a kind, docile, peace-loving intelligent creature.

This is a shy, intelligent, hardworking creature who likes to take care of other flowers and plants or small animals near the place of residence. It is also called a guardian spirit by many scholars.

They are similar in behavior and appearance to human children, and they also like to play tricks like children.

When treated kindly, they will secretly help the locals do whatever they can.

When they are treated roughly, they will feel offended and will play pranks and magic tricks on the locals.

But this kind of creature doesn't like a lively environment. When a village gradually becomes prosperous and prosperous, and forgets the tradition, they will quietly leave the village and migrate to more remote caves or unknown places.

Recalling the knowledge about the little earth spirit recorded in these books, Wayne quietly watched the little guy's actions from the second-floor window.

This should be a young female earth spirit, with bluish-purple skin, wearing a wet unknown animal skin coat. To humans, it looks ugly, but its temperament is quite gentle, with an ugly and cute feeling.

After she climbed up to the well, she looked around at a loss. Seeing that no one had noticed her, she carefully picked up the metal watering can she threw out, looked at the well, and murmured an unknown Spell.

Under the power of magic, the metal watering can slowly floated into the air, then descended into the well, and flew out again, filled with clean water.

This scene made Wayne a little surprised. Although intelligent creatures like the little land spirits have some special spell-like abilities, it is quite rare for juveniles like this to be able to use magic proficiently.

After filling the water with magic, Little Earth Spirit seemed to be very happy. She lifted the metal watering can with some difficulty, then swung around the house, and slowly came from the backyard to the garden in the front yard.

While humming strange songs, he watered the flowers and trees in the garden with a kettle, and picked up a small shovel in the garden to help those flowers and plants loosen the soil and fertilize, like a hardworking little gardener.

Seeing this scene, Wayne suddenly felt enlightened.

No wonder, after the owner here left, the flowers and plants in the garden can still grow so luxuriantly. It turns out that someone secretly took care of them at night.

Although she was only half a meter tall, her body was thin, and it was quite difficult for her to work, but Wayne could tell that this little guy seemed to enjoy it.

About an hour later, Xiao Diling ran back and forth between the well and the front yard four or five times, and she did not finish all the work until the sun was about to rise.

Then, the little guy wiped the sweat from his forehead and put the used tools back to their place one by one, as if he was ready to return.

Seeing the little guy holding the metal watering can, turning his head three times and reluctantly walking towards the mouth of the well, Wayne couldn't help but smile.

He quietly rolled down from the second floor and hid in the corner outside the house. It wasn't until the little guy walked past him that he coughed lightly and said:

"Hey! What's your name, little guy?"

Wayne's voice obviously startled the little earth spirit.

The little guy trembled when he heard the words, and couldn't help but took two or three steps back. The metal watering can in his hand also fell to the ground. The big watery eyes looked at Wayne with some horror, and his whole body trembled.

Upon seeing this, Wayne took a step back and raised his hands to indicate that he had no intention of harming her.

But this little earth spirit cub seems to be very afraid of humans. Even though Wayne behaves harmlessly, she is still quite scared.

She picked up a colorful little conch hanging on her chest with her little hands and blew it gently. In Wayne's surprised eyes, the little guy's body gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared directly under him. in front of my eyes.

If she were facing an ordinary person, she might panic and think that the little earth spirit had simply disappeared.

But the trembling badge on Wayne's chest and his keen senses told him that the little guy in front of him probably just used some kind of illusion to hide his figure, and her body was still in front of him.

The most obvious evidence is the small footprints left on the grass in the backyard when the little guy moves.

Wayne chuckled, looked at the moving positions of the footprints, and said kindly:

"Don't worry, little one, I'm a witcher, but I don't mean any harm. I just come here to have a chat with you."

It seemed that the word "witcher" caught the little guy's attention. She stopped moving, and there was silence in the air for about ten seconds.

A childish voice came from the air.

"A demon hunter? Are you the kind of person who kills evil monsters as a profession? I have read these stories in books."

Wayne thought for a while and did not confirm this statement, but explained:

"Yes, but a person's occupation can't change his good and evil. Even demon hunters have bad guys. Some demon hunters will kill innocent people indiscriminately, not just killing evil monsters."

The little guy's voice was silent for a few seconds, and then he asked:

"You said you wanted to talk, Witcher, what did you want to talk about?"

This little guy seemed quite smart, even smarter than a human girl of the same age. Wayne also became interested and said:

"I have received information that the owner of this house is constantly being subjected to all kinds of pranks, has nightmares every night, and has suffered some injuries as a result."

"This is a human house, why did you do this, why did you drive them away?"

After hearing Wayne's words, the little guy immediately denied it and said:

"No, I didn't do it. My brother Fitz did it. He thinks that these humans have disturbed the altar of the goddess. He must drive them away, otherwise it is disrespectful to the goddess."

"My father stopped him, but my brother was too stubborn and didn't listen to his father's advice at all."

"He quietly drove away those humans."

Wayne was taken aback when he heard the words. It seems that he guessed wrong. The source of this matter was not just a little earth spirit, but a family of the little earth spirit, and even the goddess was involved.

"Which goddess is it? Little one."

"Is the goddess's altar nearby?"

The little earth spirit seemed to be quite innocent. She thought about it for a few seconds and then said without any concealment:

"It's the Lady of the Lake. The altar our family has worshiped for generations is in the cave under this house."

"You humans are building big houses on it, making all kinds of noise every day, driving away the surrounding creatures, which has affected the peace of the goddess."

"That's why my brother was so angry and wanted to get rid of the people in the house."
