Another Life: Elf Archer

Nian Nian, who had just walked out of the hut, happened to hear Zi Mo's words. He glanced at Zi Mo and his men with malicious intentions, turned his head slightly and asked Simir:

"Don't you need to tell Zimo the true identity of Jiusedenxianlu?"

Simil's robe turned white again, and the staff in his hand shone golden again.His eyelids narrowed slightly and he replied: "No need."

Nian Nian shrugged his shoulders and walked into the sunshine. After all, Simil was not very considerate.

At this time of year, my mood has indeed calmed down a lot. At least on the surface, it seems to have calmed down a lot, and my expression has become more natural. At this time, I can still smile: "These things you revealed to me are what you should say. Can you still tell?"

"It's neither what I should say nor what I can say," Simil said without squinting. "To be honest, I'm starting to regret it now. Too many words will lead to mistakes."

Nian Nian lowered his head and chuckled. When he raised his head again, there was finally a smile in his eyes. He looked straight ahead and took a big step. At the same time, a light word flew into Simil's ears:

"Thank you."

After hearing this, Simil raised his eyebrows and chuckled. He raised his hand and touched his chest. Looking at Nian Nian's straight back, he decided not to remind Nian Nian: she actually owed him "I'm sorry."

Zimo also saw Nian Nian and Simil emerging from a small thatched hut. Not only Zimo, but everyone present, including Xiao Qing, also saw it.

Qinghua and Poria didn't have any intention of gossiping, but Zimo's brothers were very unscrupulous, whistling, laughing weirdly, and some gave a thumbs up to Simil and said with their mouths "awesome."

Nian Nian ignored these boring people and walked towards Xiao Qing, who had a calm face. Listening to his heartbeat speeding up again, he asked anxiously: "Xiao Qing? Do you still remember..."

Xiaoqing looked at Nian Nian, the corners of his mouth raised, and his eyes that were originally as big and round as bells narrowed into a curved line.

"Every year, I remember it and how Sister Yu Tao died."

The winding thread tightly wrapped around Nian Nian's heart like a snake, making her suddenly feel like she couldn't breathe.

Nian Nian opened her mouth, only to feel that the winding line had traveled from her heart to her throat, and the thin line was cutting her throat bit by bit.

Xiao Qing laughed out loud, her voice as clear and sweet as a silver bell.

"Nian Nian, don't worry, I don't blame you. Do you know what Sister Yu Tao said to me in the end?"

Unable to wait for Nian Nian's answer, Xiao Qing continued: "She said, protect our family."

"Our family? Our family..." Xiao Qing repeated these five words, looking across the years to the tree of life and death.

Nian Nian felt that something sharp was pressing against his heart, ready to pierce the long fangs at any time and leave poison in his blood.

Nian Nian closed his eyes and took a deep breath, turned around and looked at the tree of life and death and said, "Xiao Qing, no matter what decision you make, I will support you."

"Even if it costs you your life?"

"As long as you want, you can."

Xiao Qing was silent for a while, then shook her head and said: "I don't want your life. This is not your fault or anyone's fault. And I think you should be among the family members that Sister Yu Tao wants me to protect..." "

"I plan to stay here, take care of this tree, and wait for all the flower demons to be reborn next spring. Maybe then I can see Yu Tao again."

"I will definitely do it." Nian Nian glanced at Simir and replied affirmatively, "You will definitely see Sister Yu Tao again."

Xiaoqing looked sideways at Nian Nian and saw the determination and expectation in her eyes. She suddenly jumped into Nian Nian's arms and buried her whole body deeply in Nian Nian's spacious cloak.

After a slight hesitation, Nian Nian raised his arms and hugged Xiao Qing. Listening to the faint sobs ringing in his ears, he gently patted her back and hid her under his cloak.

-------------------------

The people of Zimo may be a little resentful towards Nian Nian, but they won't act ignorantly and do evil at this time.

Only then did someone suddenly realize that Nian Nian was actually a young girl, and her figure, which was usually covered by the big cloak, was actually a bit thin.

"Generally speaking, there are two ways to relieve pain," Simil slowly approached Nian Nian and Xiao Qing, who was still hiding in Nian Nian's arms. "One is to inflict the pain on others as it is, such as Give blood for blood and tooth for tooth; second, crush the pain and spread it out, let yourself get used to its existence, and let time slowly dilute its existence."

Nian Nian turned to look at him: "So which one are you suggesting we choose?"

"Actually, both of these have no practical effect. The pain may be ignored or forgotten for a while, but it will always exist." Simil said lightly, "However, I suggest that you try the first method now."

Nian Nian followed Simir's gaze and looked at the Tree of Life and Death.Looking across the lake from a distance, she saw various lights flashing under the trees over there, as well as some shaking figures.

"The light of magic..." Nian Nian's face was as cold as his voice, and he squinted his eyes and stared at the group of people in robes who were busy over there.

She lowered her head and patted Xiao Qing's shoulder gently, and said, "Xiao Qing, why don't we get rid of the worms in the tree of life and death?"

————————————————————————

"Where are Anbu, Oros and Hazel?"

After spending a long time in a panic in the standard lying down position, the members of the Silver Button Mercenary Group got up from the ground and arranged their clothes. Only then did someone finally remember that these two disappeared A long time companion.

Anbu frowned and shook his head: "I sent messages to both of them, but they haven't responded yet."

"Hey, who cares about them? The barrier has been broken by now, right? Let's go back and take a look!"

With the suggestions of several people and the approval of everyone, Anbu and his party hurriedly returned to the Hidden Flower Valley, which had lost the protection of the barrier, and successfully crossed the lake with the help of many high-level water holy mages and came to Under the tall tree of life and death.

"Oh goodness!" someone exclaimed, looking up at the life-and-death tree that suddenly blossomed with branches full of fruits.

"Anbu, we agreed before that, except for the mission supplies, all other trophies obtained during the mission will belong to us, right?" Someone asked greedily.

Anbu didn't answer. He knew that the person who asked the question didn't need his answer.If he really rejected these people, he might be buried at the bottom of the lake, and he himself was also very interested in this tree.

Soon, people who were either amazed or excited scattered around. Some tried to climb the tree to pick some flowers and fruits, some took out daggers and knives to peel the bark, and some had already selected a good piece of wood. Use the ice blade to chop down the thick tree trunk.

When Nian Nian and Xiao Qing walked over, they saw exactly this scene of excitement.

The vine bridge that originally spanned the Lake of Tears disappeared as expected. Just when she decided to repeat her old trick of paving the road with ice, Xiaoqing showed her power for the first time in front of everyone. strength.

Just by gently chopping my feet by the lake, countless fresh and watery narrow grass blades instantly flew out of the grass by the lake, and in the blink of an eye, a long emerald green bridge with a width of two people was built on the lake. Extending far towards the Tree of Life and Death.

Nian Nian and Xiao Qing took the lead, but Simil stayed at the lake. Only Zimo and some of his people followed curiously, but they were still five or six meters away from the two men.

After Nian Nian and Xiao Qing saw the busy group of holy mages, the long green bridge was divided into two parts, with one half heading towards the tree hole where the Nine-Colored Immortal Deer originally lived temporarily, and the other half carrying Nian Nian and the two of them. Came to Anbu.

Anbu didn't make any moves for the time being. He still stayed under the tree and watched the situation. Naturally, he was the first to notice the arrival of the two Nian Nian.

Niannian gave Anbu a friendly smile, took out two wooden boxes from his arms and handed them over: "Thank you for the reward I promised you earlier."

Anbu was a little wary at first, but was caught off guard by Nian Nian's move. He subconsciously took the two wooden boxes and replied subconsciously: "You're welcome, thank you."

Nian Nian smiled again, and Xiao Qing also opened an innocent smile to Anbu, which only made Anbu feel dazed.

Anbu was wondering in his mind whether the person who looked like a teenage girl was a player here, when he felt his whole body tense up, his legs were suddenly tied tightly together by something, and the arm was holding two wooden boxes. It was also folded tightly towards his chest, and the edges of the wooden box happened to press against his heart.

Before he could see clearly where the green ropes that bound him came from, several black shadows struck at his face, covering his eyes tightly.Soon Anbu felt like he was wrapped like a mummy, with only two nostrils exposed for breathing.

This is?Just when Anbu had this thought, he felt a sense of weightlessness, and his head felt dull, as if something was pushing up.

Am I being hung up?He reacted immediately, and before he could react, his head suddenly sank, and then there was cold liquid covering his face, body, and feet from all directions.

In the lake of tears, Anbu was struggling hard, and his body was twisting funny, but he couldn't even bring up a beautiful wave.The sharp corners of the two wooden boxes had pierced his chest, and a few drops of blood gush out, which were quickly diluted by the lake water.

Looking at the few bubbles emerging from the lake every year, he suggested to Xiaoqing in a good mood: "Don't throw them all into the lake, be careful of polluting the water source."

Xiao Qing nodded in agreement.The dozens of green slender grass blades behind her were already covered with "bugs", and they were being tossed up and down by her. Her exclamations and screams became lighter and heavier, farther and closer, as the height and speed increased. Very lively.

Soon Xiaoqing got tired of playing, and wrapped these holy mages into rice dumplings - veritable green rice dumplings - and threw them high into the sky towards the Lake of Tears.

"Which one do you think will fly the farthest?" Xiaoqing asked Niannian next to him, raising his hand as if to wait and see.

"That's right," Nian Nian also pretended to comment, "It looks the slimmest, and it has a standard streamlined shape. It should be able to fly very far."

"What do you think?" Xiaoqing turned around and looked at Zimo and others standing speechless a few meters behind them, and asked with a half-smile.

Seeing Xiaoqing turn around, Zimo's brothers all took a big step back, leaving Zimo standing alone facing the little girl with a charming smile.

"Ahem," Zimo raised his middle finger with his left hand behind his back, raised his other hand to his brow, and looked at the flying people, "I think they are all quite far away... After all, this one can't fly very far. It depends on the strength of the person throwing it!"

After saying that, he gave Xiaoqing a thumbs up: "I believe your strength is definitely the kind that can carry a tripod!"
