There are three places in the Turtle Valley that are recognized as forbidden places, a wooden house, a fire hole, and a red maple plant.

The place to the west is sunny, the trees are lush and lush, and there is a red maple tree on the hillside that is hugged by four people.

It was early spring, and the red maple on the hillside was still bright red, but there was only a lonely figure under the tree, and others could only enjoy this rare beauty from afar.

The waste staff sat under the tree, his eyes were a little confused, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and on his shoulder, the little fox sat like a human, and the eyes of the two tender green leaves were "dripping" and turning.

Since the last time Li Qi and they went to White Horse City, the little fox has been staying here in the waste stick, although Li Qi is not ashamed of the waste staff, but he still recognizes his strength, not to mention that the safety of the little fox is more important, and Li Qi will go with it.

The changes in the Turtle Valley were all in the eyes of the elf under this red maple, he was a little self-deprecating, some emotional, some gratifying, but there was no grief and no coldness.

He gently stroked the seedling of the ancient tree of life on his shoulder, carefully.

This is the hope of the elves for the future.

Since he met the old patriarch and the two brothers that night, he had expected this situation today, even his own sons and nephews, the attitude of the elves of his own clan had changed unconsciously, and he had never regretted it.

If the establishment of the crystal barrier 10,000 years ago was a compromise made by the Terrans for the sake of a truce, then it was a naked conspiracy designed by the Terrans to entangle the ancient tree of life that was about the size of the little fox with the space door for 10,000 years.

If the Ancient Tree of Life hadn't spent most of its time and energy on the space gate, how could the elven clan have gone through ten thousand years at most, only six thousand.

It was a door, a door that connected the Elemental Forest to the Netherworld, and it was also a shackle that held back the elves' development.

It's like a curse, a curse that has bound the entire elven clan for thousands of years.

Not to mention the Ancient Tree of Life, which had lived for 10,000 years, even if it was himself, when those bone fish people from Sea Wind City first set foot in the Elven Forest, there was a sudden trace of black death aura, how could he not be aware of it in the slightest.

It's just that he and the Ancient Tree of Life didn't act rashly, when Li Qi questioned him in front of everyone that day, most of what he said was false, but at least one sentence was true.

The life and death of the Elemental Forest have nothing to do with his waste staff.

In order to free the elven clan from this curse, the ancient tree of life did not hesitate to sacrifice himself, his brother, his elders, countless elf moths to the fire, he watched, but still couldn't make a move.

Who can understand the pain in his heart.

If it is really as rumored in the outside world, he and the elves are on the same footing, why does the position of the elder mage of the elves keep vacant, and how can he always live in seclusion in the elves for a hundred years.

Six hundred elves sang to their deaths, and when they left, they all walked with tears in their eyes, and he didn't.

Until this time, he still clearly remembered that when he refused to become an elder mage and abandoned his martial arts, Mason, who was not an archer elder at the time, looked pampered and spoiled, and he still remembered how the old patriarch took Gro and Mason to kneel outside the holy place and begged the Ancient Tree of Life to give him another chance.

How could his heart not ache.

In the Elven Forest, the Ancient Tree of Life was already ready to die, and his only task was to protect Li Qi, not because he was the new patriarch of the Elven Clan, but because the seedlings of the Ancient Tree of Life lived in his body.

In that breakthrough battle, he couldn't make a move, not to mention that once he made a move, many elves would not understand what he did, just say that once he made a move, it would attract the attention of all the undead, among the millions of undead, even if he could survive himself, how could he protect Li Qi, who was seriously injured at that time.

But he can't say any of that.

If you can bear the scolding of tens of millions of people alone, and you can exchange it for the longevity of the elf clan, then all this, all this sacrifice, should be worth it.

Everyone even lost their lives, so in exchange for all this, how could they drag their feet.

There will always be a day when the bitter fruits will fall, so let yourself take them to the grave.

The elf clan is in Li Qi's hands, and he is not afraid.

The wind gently blew his hair, which was as green as waterweed, and a trace of white hair slipped silently and swept over the little fox that had just been born on his shoulder.

The two leaves gently tossed the white hair aside, and the little fox leaned towards the waste staff.

The waste staff stroked him lightly, and looked up at the maple leaves as red as blood above his head.

There are maple leaves falling, and there are pillars of light shining from the gaps in the leaves, Ning He is like his heart that has never changed its original intention.

That day, on the hillside, the sun shone through, blinding, eight feet eight.

The arrow in front of him was about two and a half feet long, its whole body was red, and there was a cloud of fire spinning on its tail, and its head was like a wolf's fang, smooth and smooth.

Layers of red inscriptions spiraled up from the tail to the wolf's tooth arrows, and a wave of heat rushed to the face.

The name of the arrow is Fire Fang.

Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief, there is a way to be born once and twice cooked, with the first experience, the second time you do it, you will be much more proficient, even if something happens, you can clearly know where the problem is.

In addition, this time his luck seems to be a little good, he only tried eight times, and then he tossed out the new arrow, he has not yet experimented with the power of the arrow, but it will definitely not be bad, but he is still a little dissatisfied.

The elves will definitely use fire fang arrows for their arrows in the future, so many elves, one arrow per person, they don't know how long they have to toss, which will delay a lot of time, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

He definitely couldn't afford to delay all the time on this, and like the Lingyin arrows, Li Qi had been thinking of a way to get the goblin clan to master the production method of these arrows.

It's just that these are all arrows made by Li Qi on the basis of his own compound magic, and the essence of each inscription is the same, but there are many subtle differences, and it seems a little unrealistic to make a fuss with the inscriptions.

Li Qi was a little distressed, he was thinking and meditating, but the door of his grass hut was slammed open. Li Qi's thoughts were interrupted, his brows furrowed suddenly, he raised his eyes to look at Zirui who broke in in a panic, and was a little annoyed: "What are you doing, Zirui? Isn't it your turn to be the leader of the outpost these days? Why did you get here?"

"I, I found something big. Zirui swallowed, sat on the ground, and gasped heavily.

"What's a big deal?" Li Qi was a little helpless...... "This day is a day, can you live a stable life, there are big things every day." ”

"Really, it's a big deal! Zirui was anxious, pulling Li Qi's clothes at the same time, his face was red and his neck was thick.

"Okay, don't worry, you say, I'll listen. Li Qi comforted him again and again and put his own affairs aside.

"You know, I don't know the terrain around where we live, I can't even sleep well, yesterday, I explored outside along the center of the Turtle Valley, about five hundred miles away, and found a large group of people and horses that seemed to be rushing towards us, I followed them for a long time, and found that their direction was indeed here. ”

Zirui took a breath and continued: "Later, I thought about coming back and reporting the news first, but looking at their speed, it was really not fast, so I had an extra eye and probed out along their surroundings, and found that the second team seemed to be coming to our side. ”

"Are you sure their direction is indeed us?"

's expression couldn't help but start to become serious.

"Sure, they're going straight, and the target is our Turtle Valley. Zirui replied to Gu Xin without hesitation.

"How many of them are there?" Li Qi hurriedly asked.

"I don't know, they look like they're quite numerous, the first team is almost 10,000 people, and the second team looks a little more than the first. Zirui thought carefully.

"How is their strength?" Li Qi secretly noted down and continued to ask.

"I was in a hurry, where did I dare to pay attention to their strength, but most of them were higher than me, and each of them gave me a great threat. Zirui thought for a long time and affirmed, "I estimate that most of them should be third-order masters. ”

"With so many people, it's definitely not a small force. Li Qi's brows furrowed slightly, and he said to himself: "We haven't had much contact with other forces here, so could it be that we have inadvertently offended someone? ”

"Could it be related to the last trip to White Horse City? Didn't you say that you destroyed a trading house? It couldn't be that the troops of White Horse City chased after you?" Zirui guessed.

"It won't be them. Li Qi shook his head decisively: "The city lord of White Horse City shouldn't care about such a trivial matter, besides, he is trapped in White Horse City, he has no time to take care of himself, where is there something to meddle with." "But you reminded me that it is impossible for the people of White Horse City, but the people who trapped him are a little suspicious, and the woman who intercepted us before also said that they are from Xiao Nanguo, could it be that Xiao Nanguo has some secret method to track us here?" he asked hesitantly.

"Oh, Brother Gu, what do you still want to do. Zirui hurriedly said: "They are all here, what's the use of thinking about these again." ”

"That's right!" Li Qi suddenly woke up and nodded, he stood up, took two steps back and forth, turned his head and ordered: "You let Sister Green, Sister Xueyu, they come to me to discuss countermeasures, you lead the elf detective to put on the phantom armor, continue to probe forward, see if there are any other forces rushing over, remember, you must be careful, don't be discovered by them." ”

"Don't worry!" Zirui nodded solemnly and disappeared outside the house.
