Farming Druid - Chapter 115



Only Noblemtl

115. Why, why are you doing that…

At Yoon Kang’s question, the tree opened its mouth and made its eyes into crescent moons.

“To help our sea friends.”

“what?”

Yun Kang shut his mouth after seeing the tree with serious eyes.

Wasn’t it like that just a little while ago?

I saw all the marine animals in the sea approaching the tree and Haneum and asking for rescue.

“If you go into the sea, the sea animals will really enjoy it. I guess.”

Gulp— Gulp—

Han-eum felt a tickle in her mouth as she watched Yoon-kang down the cola in front of him in one gulp without even taking a breath.

‘What you saw a little while ago was blood on the feet of a bird. That’s because you didn’t see the animals lining up for help whenever that guy showed up at Dogyeonggye Cape.’

The tree that read Haneum’s mind turned its head.

I felt like I was going to burst out laughing.

“Anyway, I’ll contact you as soon as I buy it. For now, can I buy the yacht before the next dive?”

The tree, which had stopped laughing, looked up at Haneum and asked.

“I guess I’ll have to look into it whenever I have some free time at the hospital. But can I really be your secretary?”

“go away-.”

“Why? You make a lot of money.”

“What kind of money does a farmer make?”

“I heard that a new product was coming out in [SeeYou] this time, but there was no word?”

“…what?”

When Haneum heard the story he had never heard before, the tree felt a little puzzled.

‘Sihu hasn’t contacted me at all, so how does he know?’

As if reading the tree’s thoughts.

Haneum immediately opened her mouth.

“They advertised on Stargram. They said a new product was coming out.”

“aha.”

“You didn’t follow me?”

“What― I don’t really use Instagram, I just use YouTube.”

Yun Kang, who had been listening to the conversation between Haneum and Namu, opened his mouth.

“Tree, are you a YouTuber?”

“It just so happened.”

“What’s the channel name?”

“I quit my job and go to the countryside to farm. Maybe? Maybe? Because my subscribers call me ‘Hoetaesi Farmer’ for short.”

“Huh? That name is you?”

“Why? You know?”

“I’ve heard the name. I heard the women who were teaching freediving classes talking about it.”

“… … .”

I felt a little embarrassed to hear stories about my channel coming out of other people’s mouths.

“But there’s a cat there? I heard that cats that farm on two legs are really popular.”

“Ah—you mean our five brothers, spring, summer, fall, and winter?”

“Is that your cat’s name?”

“Oh―. The things you do are just like the seasons, and you’re cute. Isn’t that right, Haneum?”

“Huh? That’s right. You wouldn’t believe it if you saw real cats picking perilla leaves or bean leaves.”

Yun Kang noticed that Haneum and Namu often met.

“Oh, my—a tree?”

“what?”

“As soon as the cat story or animal story comes up, my mouth opens.”

“Is that so?”

The tree scratched its cheek as if embarrassed… .

“But I’m glad you like it. Wasn’t Haneum like you at the same university as Namu?”

I was listening to the conversation of friends I hadn’t seen in a long time.

It was a tree that made me feel like I was back in high school again.

While eating together.

“Ah—I heard there’s a class reunion this winter. Are you, Namoo and Haneum, going to come?”

“Don’t all the guys who go there come to say, ‘I’m great’?”

Yoon Kang shrugged his shoulders at Han Eum’s question.

“Why would kids from Namjung High School and Techtree say ‘I’m great’?”

The tree listened quietly to the two people’s words.

Why do you want to see your high school friends?

Well, that’s fine.

After graduating, we each worked diligently at our jobs when we ran into each other by chance.

I thought you might be happy.

‘It’s been a while, so I guess I can take a look… .’

Namu, who had been watching Han-eum and Yun-gang talking to each other, drank his beverage and looked out at the sea beyond the raw fish restaurant.

‘Once we plant seeds in the South Sea and the West Sea, things will become a little cleaner… .’

I thought back to when I went underwater.

‘We need to get rid of ocean trash as quickly as possible…’

* * *

A few weeks later.

The tree received a single note.

I could have called, but I didn’t want to tell the quick-witted cats.

Haneum: The owner of a jewelry store entrusted gold coins and jewels to an overseas auction broker, and was surprised at the high bid prices.

Tree Tree: How much did you get in?

Haneum: The total amount is over 45 billion won. Ah, that’s the amount including the commission and the amount the jeweler takes.

Namoo Namoo: Wow. I guess I could expand my territory a bit and buy two islands.

Haneum: Are you really going to buy an island?

Namoo Namoo: Uh-. I don’t know about you, but there are some endangered birds in Korea. But they are so precious that there is a high risk of them being caught, so they asked me to provide them with a sanctuary.

Haneum: Ah― If that’s the case. I thought I’d be stuck on the island again and never come out.

Tree Tree: That won’t happen. My grandmother gave me all the fields and land. (Crying cat emoji)

Han-eum: I did buy a yacht, but… Are you really going to tell Kang-i that?

Namoo Namoo: I don’t want to go back on my decision, so you talk to Kang-i. I still have work to do today.

Han-eum: First of all… the deposit will be made under the name of the jewelry store owner.

After checking all the chats.

I took out the plan I had written down on my phone and erased one.

– Bidding on the underwater treasure auction. (Completed)

– Purchase of a yacht (completed) – Will be established as the owner of Yun Kang Ship.

– Helping marine animals. (In progress)

When checking the plan.

Abel came over and barked softly.

Kung-(hyung)

“huh?”

-My friends from the north are coming down one by one.

“Nothing else but bears?”

-There are many, but… . A deer with really cool antlers wants to see you, Hyung-ah… .

“You think the horns are cool?”

Abel nodded to the tree’s question.

“Really? Should I ask them to come first?”

Wong-

Abel immediately turned around and went into the mountain.

For the home of bears migrating from the north to spend the winter.

I felt like I needed to find out about the objects (land) around Dogyeonggye Village.

The tree holding the cell phone contacted the elderly neighbor.

Thump thump— click—

-hello?

“Sir, I live next door. Yes, sir. I have something to ask you… .”

The tree asked Kim Yu-shin, an old neighbor who had lived here for a long time, about the land.

After ending the call, the tree looked at its cell phone.

“You’re digging the ground?”

If I bought the land that the elderly neighbor had, it would be almost as big as a ‘dong’ including the mountain.

The thinking tree reminded him of the animal friends living there.

‘I think there will be a territorial dispute… .’

The tree that had been thinking soon shook its head.

I believed that Abel and the snake would be able to coordinate well.

Meow meow meow

Among the five cat brothers, Bom narrowed her eyes as she watched the tree.

“Guardian-meow― Your hand is stillmow― We are working. A human Guardian is playing around―.”

First, I got scolded by my cat, Spring.

“Sorry. I have something to take care of.”

“Okay, move your hands!”

The eldest of the five cat brothers, the yellow-furred cat, had a tendency to secretly follow the tree around and nag.

Sigh-

Bomi’s nagging.

And the sounds the cats made as they moved around could be heard like small music in the field.

‘It’s peaceful… .’

Suddenly, I remembered the number of vegetables that had to be delivered today.

‘Peace, my ass. Today was supposed to be the biggest delivery day ever. Damn it. Even if I had to borrow a bear’s paw… . No, they would have just destroyed things. They’re worse than cats… . At this rate. Should I go into town and drag some more cats? Hmm… .’

The tree had no choice but to move its hands and body faster as it thought.

The house cats felt like all their whiskers were drawn forward when they saw the tree’s expression.

And they began to converse with their eyes.

‘Why is that guardian hyung like that today?’

‘Maybe because you’re busy?’

‘We were always busy – we were sharpening our claws and picking leaves every day.’

‘If you don’t know, keep quiet – the guardian brother did all the physical work.’

‘But that expression is the same as when I brought cats from other neighborhoods.’

‘No way― Donkatsu… no, it’s salty. Are there going to be more people eating it?’

‘I don’t like it. I don’t like it. I don’t like it. I don’t like other cats coming for the sake of our kittens.’

Harvesting by twisting the cabbage trunk.

Let’s turn our heads and look at the sound of cats’ hearts.

The house cats stopped their eye conversation and pretended to work quietly.

“You guys―. Do you know any friends?”

Whyoooong― Ginger saooang―(I don’t want other friends to come―. We don’t want to fight meow―)

The tree chuckled after hearing the house cats’ objections.

“Isn’t your space a little cramped right now? Hmm— When other friends come in, I’m thinking of building another house and hiring another butler to make your living space a little more comfortable…”

The tree, seeing the cats perking up their ears, decided to be a little more generous.

“So, what was it that you guys wanted? You asked for a variety of cat poles, cat wheels, and hiding places, right?”

Meow- Meow- (Ha- What the-. This is… Really.)

The leader cat came up to the tree and sat down on his haunches.

Meow, meow? (How many do you plan on bringing in this time?)

“Honestly? Or vaguely?”

I gave the cats a choice.

“To be honest”

“good-.”

The tree explained the current situation of the fields, rice paddies, and surrounding forests to the head cat of the house.

The big cat’s eyes became needle-like and he looked up at the tree and then at the sky.

ha-

The tree was a little curious to see a cat sigh like that for the first time.

Even the five cat brothers didn’t sigh much.

“Think about it until tomorrow, make a decision, let me know, and let me know what we have to do today. I’m a bit busy today, hyung.”

The big cat finished talking to the tree.

He headed straight to his assigned area.

And the body was moving and conveying the tree’s language to the other house cats.

‘A species called cats… After the Earth is destroyed, will they become the next species to protect the Earth?’

The tree realized that he was twisting the cabbage trunk and thinking absurd thoughts.

ha-

It was a tree that felt like its head was in a mess because it was busy.

“Abel-.”

Woof woof (brother – why?)

“When did the deer come?”

* * *

That evening.

While filming a cooking scene at his old house for the first time in a long time, a sound caught Namu’s ear.

Multi-faceted – Multi-faceted –

A sound that should be called the sound of hooves.

After the tree has finished eating.

As I came out, I saw the owner of the hooves.

―I pay my respects to the young guardian who represents this land.

A male continental deer with beautiful horns on its head.

A wild animal belonging to the deer family, endangered level 1.

It is rarely seen in Korea, and only one female remains on the mountain behind Namune’s house.

The tree smiled, forgetting the pot in its hand.

‘The friend who came down from the North is a male continental deer… . An unscratched lottery ticket has been handed down.’

A female deer on the back mountain.

And look at the deer in front of you.

The tree smiled.

Because there’s a definite chance that I’ll see a pretty baby in my later years.

The continental deer took a step back after seeing the smiling tree.

-Why, why are you doing that… Guardian?
