Chapter 106: Heart-to-heart
Yinyued's heart sank, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water, and her face was extremely ugly.
The words of the third elder Ivan were sincere, and they did not seem to be fake.
She was full of hope just now, but she was suddenly rejected by Ivan, and with her cultivation, she forgot to hide it for a while, and her joy and anger were pale.
It seems that that friend is extremely important to her!
Ivan remembered what he had just said, and couldn't help but sigh: "It is rumored in the world that our elves are proficient in life magic, and all of them can absorb the essence of nature and refine the water of life, in fact, this is a fallacy!"
Yinyue noticed the gaffe just now, calmed her mood, and said respectfully, "Oh, the little girl would like to hear about it. ”
Ivan nodded, and then said slowly: "Actually, things are not difficult to understand. Most of the people of the world are attached to the association, and they spread false rumors. Our elves have always lived in seclusion in secret realms, and do not care about the world. No one came out to get to the bottom of it, so the fake turned out to be true. ”
"Actually, it's true that our elves are good at life magic, but if everyone can absorb the essence of nature and refine the water of life, it is naturally false. As for the saying that there is a fountain of life in our people, just like an ordinary spring, inexhaustible, that is even more vain and exaggerated. ”
"These statements, the juniors have indeed heard of them!" Yinyue nodded. It was precisely because of this that she went to great lengths to find Elder Ivan.
"We elves have the water of life, but it is not something that can be refined, but it is collected and given to the people. ”
"Ready-made for the clansmen?" Silver Moon was puzzled.
Elder Ivan had already explained that if there was no fountain of life, where could it be collected?
"Does the Silvermoon Maiden know my clan's Eternal Forest?"
"Eternal Forest?" Silvermoon wondered, "We passed by when we first arrived. According to Princess Noss, it is not only a great barrier to the secret realm, but also a place for nobles to experience. ”
"Yes, it is! Our race is different from other races because we have lived long enough, so we are not judged by age or not. ”
Yinyue nodded, she naturally knew this. The Ivan in front of him, who seemed to be just entering the old age, was actually 8,000 years old. And Noss, who seemed to be younger than Yinyue, was actually close to two thousand years old, older than her.
Ivan continued, "For our clan, every elf must pass through the Eternal Forest in order to be considered an adult. ”
"No wonder I see many people in the forest!" Xiao Jing said on the side.
"It's just a sparring partner, and there will be one time before I become an adult. But the real rite of passage is to pass through the Eternal Forest from the ground alone, so that you can gain the qualification to drive a flying car through the forest and be rewarded by the Sacred Tree. ”
"Passing alone?" Xiao Jing smacked her tongue, "This is too dangerous, isn't it?"
When she came before, she naturally knew that this vast forest was full of dangers, and it was not so easy.
"Yes! Alone!" said Ivan, unquestioningly, "if anyone falls in the forest, it is also his ability and bad luck, and he cannot blame others." ”
Xiao Jing was speechless when she heard this, and then suddenly she was stunned.
The world says that you are born in sorrow and die in peace. The elf clan has been hidden for a long time, but there are still so many masters in the clan, not to mention others, it can be seen purely from the cruel test of its coming-of-age ceremony.
Xiao Jing thought to herself, in this way, that Princess Noss must have passed the test a long time ago, and has traveled through the forest many times, no wonder she is so proficient in controlling flying cars.
Yin Yue was silent beside her for a while, and then suddenly spoke: "It is so difficult for nobles to complete the coming-of-age ceremony, presumably the reward of that divine tree is even more extraordinary?"
"The girl is very clever!" Ivan looked at her and sighed, "The reward is two drops of water of life!"
"The reward is the water of life?" Xiao Jing couldn't help but lose her voice.
Yinyue also looked surprised when she heard this. Although she expected it to be extraordinary, she didn't expect it to be the water of life.
"Yes! it's the water of life. The sacred tree of our clan has been psychic since ancient times. All elven warriors who worship and participate in the rites of passage can receive such rewards from the sacred tree after returning safely. ”
Worshipping the spirit tree as a family of ancestors, and then worshipping and worshipping, and hoping to be blessed by the spirit tree, this is a rumor in the world. Unexpectedly, the elves are the same.
"The water of life is only available to the Divine Tree, and only the patriarch is qualified to be responsible for collecting and distributing it. In fact, with the strength of the Silver Moon Girl, she must also be able to pass the rite of passage. ”
Ivan looked at Yinyue, who looked a little gloomy, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that there is a rule in the clan that foreign races can't participate in the coming-of-age ceremony. I'll go and ask the patriarch tomorrow to see if I can make an exception, but it's not very certain......"
Hearing this, Yin Yan stood up again, bowed to Ivan, and said, "Don't bother. The younger generation got it. Thank you for your kindness!"
Yinyue's gratitude is naturally from the bottom of her heart. The content of Elder Ivan's words was the first time Yinyue had heard it, and it was unheard of. There were many secrets that should be of the elven clan, but he told her unabashedly.
She was born in a big clan like the Sky Fox Clan, and she knew the importance of the clan rules. Now, the rules of the elven clan are there, and if Elder Ivan asks the patriarch for it, she can't bear it. As for the hope of seeking, it is not that it is not small, but that it is not at all.
Facing Yinyue's thanks, Ivan reached forward to hold Yinyue up, and said with a wry smile: "Hey, I'm ashamed! I can't do anything about Yinyue's request!"
"The seniors have done their best! It's okay! The juniors will find another way!"
"I just heard you briefly describe your friend's symptoms, and it is indeed something that needs to warm the soul. Water of life, I can't do anything about it. But perhaps there are other alternatives. ”
"I don't know how to do medicine. But an old friend of mine, Caesar, is a master of medicine, and he should be out of the customs in a few days, so we will consult him then. ”
"You stay with me for a few more days. How about a decision then?"
Yinyue thought about it, and there really was no better way for her.
She nodded and said, "Then there is Senior Lao!"
Ivan saw that she agreed, and his face was overjoyed. He is a man of temperament, and he doesn't want Yinyue and the two of them to go to him for nothing.
The three of them talked a few more words, and then Ivan called the attendant.
After following Yinyue's request to sleep with Xiaojing, the attendant cleaned up a clean and tidy guest room, and then took Yinyue and Xiaojing to rest.
The two of them traveled all the way, bathed and finished dinner, and then rested early.
Nothing was said all night.
After breakfast the next day, Yinyue and Xiaojing, led by their maid Sava, visit the famous buildings and streets nearby.
Originally, Yinyue thought that two foreigners like them would hang out on the street in a dignified manner, and they might attract attention.
But the result was very unexpected, although it attracted the attention of many people, but it was not as bad as imagined, and the main thing that attracted the attention of some people was not their demon identity, but their new faces and beautiful appearance.
It turns out that in this city in the sky, foreigners are not a special case. Here, in addition to the elven clan, there are actually many other clansmen. For example, Humans, Demons, Orcs, and so on.
Yinyue and the others also saw a half-snake man with a human upper body and a snake on the lower body, which must be the product of a human-snake hybrid.
According to Sava, the specific time when the elven secret realm was opened up is too long, perhaps from the primeval times.
At that time, the ancestors of the elf clan had this place in order to avoid disaster, and the people of the later tribe almost never went out.
As for the other clans in the secret realm, some of them were originally in this world, and some of them were combined and multiplied by each other over a long period of time.
Elder Ivan was out on business, and the three of them wandered around until nearly noon before returning.
As soon as she entered the door, Yinyue felt a strange atmosphere.
Inside the hall stood a young man, surrounded by two attendants standing respectfully.
"Why is he here?"
When Sava saw this man, her expression suddenly became nervous, and she couldn't help but say in an inaudible voice.
The young man has golden curly hair, is more than two meters tall, has ape arms and a bee waist, and looks a little thin, but his eyes are blazing, the bridge of his nose is tall and slightly curved, his lips are slender and moderate, and his pale red ears are towering.
His eyes turned out to be red, matching his long blond hair, and he had a bit of a strange temperament.
The young man was originally expressionless, but when he saw Yinyue and a few people coming in, his cold eyes suddenly had a bright light.
He took a few steps forward and said proudly: "I heard that the Silver Moon Girl's Dao method is exquisite, and in the Lower Elf Clan Mei Lin, I want to ask the girl to teach you a lesson or two!" (To be continued.) )
