Chapter 337 The gradually chaotic forest (V)
After that, Katie never spoke again. Perhaps Fang Zheng's "life motto" was too shocking to this young lady who had walked out of the house for the first time. She had already found a place to be alone in a daze. And Fei
Na also seemed to have thought of something, holding the scepter tightly and sitting by the stream without saying a word, quietly watching the flowing river.
Only Nimfu, Helene and the astrologer girl are still busy taking care of those elves. Founder once asked Nimfu if he could heal the inner wounds of these elves like sealing the memory of the mage in the forest.
It hurt. However, Nimfu told him hesitantly that forcibly distorting and changing other people's mental memories may bring uncontrollable consequences, so Fang Zheng finally gave up.
Fortunately, not long after that, because the patrol had not returned, the people in the elf village also organized a rescue team to come to search, and after seeing the elf girl's signal, they joined Fang Zheng and his party, and now...
…
"I have learned everything from my compatriots. Thank you for your help, stranger."
An elf wearing emerald green leather armor and a cloak, carrying a long bow, jumped down from the branch like a dexterous cat, landed steadily in front of Fang Zhong, and then respectfully performed the etiquette of an elf on him.
"Although the child did not describe to us in detail what happened to our compatriots, we have learned about their experiences from the wind. Thank you for avenging my compatriots and saving them from that tragic fate.
and was rescued."
"Not so polite."
Seeing the elf in front of him who seemed to be a year or two older than himself, but whose tone was as mature as a weather-beaten sage, Fang Zheng smiled helplessly.
"I am a paladin after all. I will still draw my sword to help when the road is rough."
"Paladin………"
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the elf blinked curiously and carefully looked at Fang Zheng's clothes - well, this clothes was indeed far different from that of a paladin.
"No matter what, you and your companions saved our people. Of course we will not lose our courtesy to you. Please come to the village with us. At least... let us entertain you to express our gratitude."
"This... miss."
Facing the elf in front of him, Fang Zheng hesitated for a moment. Although he could guess that the elf in front of him was probably more than ten times his age, he still used such a word cautiously.
"Perhaps you have heard from your companions. My companions and I came here for the assessment mission of the Order Alliance. Our destination is the top of ice and snow. We have no intention of staying in the Forest of Life for a long time.
I’m disturbing you all, and maybe it’s not a good idea to say this... After all, your kindred people have encountered such a thing... They don’t seem to be in the mood to entertain us."
"No matter what, they survived."
After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the elf captain looked at Fang Zheng with a much softer look.
"Although a few compatriots returned to the embrace of Mother Nature and slept peacefully, most of them survived in the end and did not breathe their last breath in despair under the wanton abuse of those evil and ugly monsters. Of course, I
I also know that the next life will be difficult for them, but I believe that my compatriots will overcome all this, and there is hope as long as they are alive."
Having said this, the elf captain paused for a moment, then glanced at the other people behind Fang Zheng.
"So, you are our benefactors, and we will never repay our kindness. Moreover, it is already afternoon, and it would be very dangerous to enter the top of the ice and snow at this time. Moreover, as residents here, although we spend most of our time
The activities are in the forest, but we are still a little more familiar with the situation on the top of the ice and snow than outsiders. Maybe we can also be of some help to you."
"If that's the case, then it's better for me to be respectful than to obey."
Now that the elf captain has said this, Fang Zheng will naturally not refuse any more. And what the other party said is not wrong. After all, they are new here. In terms of their familiarity with this place,
Naturally, we still have to rely on dwarves and elves. Moreover, in the elven villages, you might also be able to find some clues about the commission.
The reason why he refused before was just to avoid embarrassment. It would be fine if he was simply killed. However, in Fang Zheng's view, if so many elves encountered such "restricted level" things, the atmosphere in the entire village would definitely not be much better.
, outsiders like them should not ask for trouble. But now it seems that his understanding of the elves is still too little.
Of course, the girls are also very concerned about the invitation from the elves. After all, the elves are a race that rarely goes out to have contact with humans. In many cases, they can only be seen in some border areas. The home of the elves is very difficult for other races.
It is even more of a mystery, but even so, many bards also circulated those beautiful and dreamy stories about the elves' homeland.
Therefore, the girls were very happy that they and others could be invited to enter the gathering place of the elves. Since no one objected, Fang Zheng naturally had nothing to say and followed the elves to their village.
The gathering place of the elves is located beside a calm stream deep in the Forest of Life. However, it is different from the huge gathering place that everyone imagined. This is just a small village with almost a hundred elves living in it. It is everywhere on the towering ancient trees.
It can be seen that the huts are made of branches and vines and resemble yurts. Although they do not have the patchwork beauty of human cities, they have a unique and exquisite natural style.
When Fang Zheng and others entered the village, the other elves who had stayed in the village had also come to greet them at the entrance of the village. They didn't say anything, they just sang a quiet song in the Elvish language in a low voice.
"This is the song of tranquility."
Listening to the singing in her ears, Fina explained to the others in a low voice.
"This is a song sung by the elves for the returning brave men after the battle. In order to give peace to the souls of the elves who died in the battle, it also welcomes other elves to go home safely."
"This is a little different from humans. Humans seem to prefer praising the winner."
After hearing Fina's explanation, Nimfu, who was holding Charmander, blinked curiously.
"For elves, they only fight to protect their homes and forests, but even such a battle... is equally sad."
After that, Fang Zheng and others were arranged in the reception hall, and the elves who had gathered here to look at these outsiders curiously quickly dispersed. It didn't take long for the entire village to recover again.
calm.
"So beautiful..."
Holding the little fire dragon in her arms, Nimfu stared at the elven village in front of her. The sun was already setting in the west, and the bright red light shone through the gaps in the shade of the trees and fell into the air of the village. Several people could be seen.
Birds with beautiful feathers were chirping and flying in the forest. The forest, which originally seemed a little dark due to the sunset, now gave people a warm and comfortable feeling.
"But I still feel that Tiandao Palace is more beautiful."
"Yeah?"
Hearing Nimfu's emotion, Fang Zheng also glanced at the little angel beside him, while Nimfu nodded excitedly.
"Because Tiandao Palace gives people the feeling that they can fly freely in the sky. Here... I always feel that I can't do anything. Ah, but the scenery here is not bad. I will also sing a song for everyone to cheer up.
!”
"No, forget it."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but trembled suddenly.
To be honest, Nimfu, this little angel, is good at almost everything. She has a well-behaved and obedient personality, and can help Fang Zhengzheng in all aspects. Apart from her lack of direct combat effectiveness, she has almost no shortcomings.
No, it should be said that the little angel also has a fatal problem.
That's singing.
Fang Zheng clearly remembered that the first time he heard the little angel's singing was on the second night after they arrived at Tiandao Palace. Since there was nothing to do, everyone found a place on the grassland to have a bonfire party. During this period, the little angel suggested that he
She came to sing for everyone to entertain them. Because Nimfu’s voice was very nice, everyone immediately agreed to her request without thinking too much.
And then... there was no more.
When Fang Zheng woke up again, it was already noon the next day. Almost everyone except Nimfu had lost consciousness, including Charmander and the little milk cat, who looked like they were about to go to the other side of the underworld. Even just
Even Hecate leaned directly against the bodhi tree nearby and passed out. So when she woke up, this great witch who was usually very calm, taciturn but very reliable had a trembling tin staff for the first time.
I can't hold it anymore!
As for what exactly Nimfu sang that night...
Sorry, Fang Zheng has no memory at all.
In other words, no one remembers it.
Obviously there is no problem when humming on weekdays, but why does it have such powerful destructive power once singing seriously?
"Why---?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's objection, Nimfu showed a slightly dissatisfied expression, but before she could say anything else, there was a "dong dong" knock on the door outside the house.
"Please come in."
Hearing the knock on the door, Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly spoke. Since opening up her heart, the little angel has become closer and closer to him, no longer begging him not to abandon her as before. This
It's a good thing, but the bad thing is that the little angel is gradually starting to have a little temper, but...Fang Zheng really can't agree to her request!
If the entire elf village is wiped out, then the problem will be huge!
"Squeak."
Following Fang Zheng's voice, the door was gently pushed open, and then, the elf captain that Fang Zheng and others had seen before walked in with a smile.
Chapter completed!
