…………………… 187, Grass and Tree Elves (II) ........................

"Hey, you know Colonel Hilal too?" The villain called Caohuang was shocked, and shook his head and shouted happily: "Then everyone is an acquaintance, it is really a leaf of duckweed returning to the sea, where do you not meet in life!" ”

Qiu Ci and Xiao Chunshui looked at each other, the two had never met such a person who was good at pulling relationships, they were still villains, and they even said the proverb of the alliance.

For more than 500 years, how do the two get acquainted with Hilal? And how to be an acquaintance with the villain in front of him through Hilal's relationship?

Xiao Chunshui coughed, afraid that the loud voice would deaf their ears, so he lowered his voice and asked, "That...... Mr. Caohuang, may I ask you, is there something wrong? This villain dragged his family to the two of them, if there was no reason, Qiu Ci and Xiao Chunshui would not believe it.

As soon as he said this, the villain named Dacao suddenly pointed to the fruit in Qiu Ci's hand and shouted, "Grandpa, the giantess has eaten the red fruit, and there are only a few left." Her voice was crying, as if she had been greatly wronged.

The five villains looked at the red fruit held in Qiu Ci's left hand in unison, and the five small faces had a look of grief.

"Uh......" Qiu Zi asked with a sigh, "What, can't you eat it?" Is it toxic? ”

The villain lying on the ground finally turned over, and Qiu Ci found that he was very fat, round like a small ball of meat, and a pair of calves were all covered by his stomach, no wonder he couldn't get up. He pointed at her and shouted angrily: "Our family has three months' worth of food, you can eat it in a few bites, and we will be hungry." ”

Xiaocao said and fell to the ground. Get back on roll.

A drop of cold sweat almost broke out on Qiu Ci's forehead, and she ate three months' worth of food for a family of five in a few random bites? I don't know, I thought she had a lot of food. God knows it's just a few little fruits.

Turning his head to look at Xiao Chunshui, he saw that his expression was a little unnatural, and he felt embarrassed when he thought about it.

He coughed in disguise. He whispered to the five miserable-looking villains, "You are chasing these fruits? ”

Cao Huang pulled the yellow hair on his face and nodded sadly, "This fruit is called red fruit, and it is the staple food we rely on for survival." The planet of Amor is full of grass, but only a few species of grass bear fruit, and red fruit grass is one of them. So you pluck the red fruit, and we have to endure three months of hunger. Wait three months. The red fruit will come back and we will have a full meal. ”

His son Cao Qing continued: "Da Cao saw that you had picked the fruit, and hurriedly came back to inform us, and we used our grass walking technique with all our might, thinking that we could catch up with you." I didn't expect it to be late. ”

His daughter-in-law Cao Lu also cried: "I knew that it was better to sleep, so I came in a hurry, but I still didn't want to come back." ”

Cao Qing scolded: "What do you know, isn't it that you haven't finished eating yet?" We'll be hungry for a month at most. ”

"What if she doesn't pay it back?" Caolu continued to sobble and asked.

"Nonsense." Cao Huang shouted sternly: "We are acquaintances with them, old friends understand?" How can they be greedy for our family's rations? It's a joke, don't you make your friends laugh when you say that? ”

Qiu Ci sighed, hey, this old guy, it's really old. kept using the identity of an old friend to squeeze her, forcing her not to return their fruits, and she felt embarrassed.

It's just a few fruits, so what about giving them to them?

Thinking like this, she divided one of the red fruits in her hand, and there were still two left in her hand. Pity the five little ones who are not yet as big as the fruit. The two little arms struggled to hold the red fruit, and after a while, they all fell to the ground. Oh no, Xiaocao was originally lying on the ground, but now there is a huge red fruit pressed on her body.

Xiao Chunshui glanced at her with disgust, took down the red fruit on the five people, and said, "I'm really sorry, I didn't know it was your food, please forgive me for the offense." I'll send these fruits back for you, but can the red fruits be kept for two months? ”

Cao Huang got up from the ground, patted the clothes woven by green grass blades on his body, and picked up the small grass roots from the ground, the small flowers on the grass stick had fallen, and he twitched his mouth distressedly. Raising his head, he smiled gratefully again: "Thank you, thank you, there is a cellar under our residence to store food, and red fruits will not spoil if they are placed in the cellar for three months." Although there are a few missing, it is almost enough to save some food. ”

He looked at the two of them in embarrassment, and said with a ashamed expression: "Originally, an old friend came, and I should have invited you to my house as a guest, but ......"

Xiao Chunshui immediately understood what he meant, and their residence was afraid that there would not be room for one hand of the two of them, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Caohuang, don't worry, we don't mean to bother you." He pointed to the dark moon not far away and said, "We have mechas, so we can rest in the mecha compartment." ”

Cao Huang looked in the direction of his fingers, his two mung bean-like eyes lit up, and he muttered a sigh in his mouth: "I can't imagine that after more than five hundred years, I can still see human mechas." Then he turned to the two of them and said, "There were also more than a dozen mecha on the battleship that Colonel Hilal was riding on, but those mechs were all beast-shaped, and they were several times larger than this one. Those steel monsters are really terrifying, in addition to our grass and tree race, there were other races living on Amor Star, and those races wanted to kill the human troops brought by Colonel Hilal, but they were all wiped out by more than a dozen mechas. Colonel Hilal tried to dissuade him, but his subordinates did not listen to his orders. ”

He pulled the yellow hair and sighed, sighed several times and continued: "You humans call our higher beings in the Ravel galaxy demons, but I really don't know that this demon is more suitable for you humans, at least we never do anything to kill them all." But it's also good that because of this, we have no natural enemies, and we have lived a leisurely and peaceful life for hundreds of years. ”

"Your people?" Qiu Ci asked suspiciously, secretly wondering if there are all such villains on this planet?

Cao Huang didn't know what to think, and suddenly fell silent, and after a while, he said sadly: "It's almost dead, and there may only be more than a thousand people in Amor Star." In this vast grassland, only our family of five is still alive. ”

"Could it be ......" Xiao Chunshui wanted to speak and stopped.

A gust of night wind blew, and the grass yellow jumped lightly onto Xiao Chunshui's outstretched palm. Shaking his head, he said, "It's not what you think, our people are small, and Colonel Hilal and his subordinates didn't slaughter us." It's just that we have no survival opponents, and the people are getting lazier and lazier. Survival skills are all degraded, and they can only rely on the facilities of nature. Nature is merciful and generous, it gives birth to all living things; Nature is also cruel and stingy. Climate change has led to fewer and fewer grasses, people are starved to death, and perhaps in a few hundred years, our people will disappear into the vast universe. ”

The words were a little heavy, and the faces of the five villains showed grief and helplessness, and they were deeply worried about their future fate.

"Your language of the Alliance, but what Hilal taught you?" The autumn words opened to break the silence on the grassland.

"Yes. Colonel Hilal and his troops lived on Amor for three years, and in these three years, they killed almost all the creatures on Amor. ”

"Then why are you still alive?" Qiu Zi asked again in a deep voice.

Cao Huang stood in Xiao Chunshui's palm, his head lowered, such a small person. But there was a heavy loneliness on his body.

"Because...... Our people have betrayed the faith. We were given temporary safety, but in exchange for the wrath of the gods of nature, we were punished by nature, and in a few hundred years, it was time for us to be wiped out. He whispered slowly.

At that time, the troops led by Hilal fled to an unknown planet after nine deaths, holding a sharp weapon in their hands, but their hearts were confused and uneasy. Under the psychological torture of missing their relatives in their hometown and fleeing from the war, everyone's nerves were very tense. Only the thirst for killing can alleviate the panic of being in a different place.

Akiji had fled the stars with the Red Spider Pirate Fleet for three years, and no one knew the psychology of this group of soldiers better than her.

If they had killed all living beings, how could they have a conscience to find out and leave this group of weak villains alone?

The grass and wood elves have a long life, and if they die in an accident. The lifespan can reach more than 800 years. They drank white dew and ate wild fruits at night, and their health was pure and pure, and they were never tormented by illness. What's even more rare is that the grass and tree elves have an extremely intelligent brain, and have the ability to be well-read and memorized. Taking language as an example, it may take at least half a year for humans to learn other languages without the help of light brains, while the grass and tree elves may only need one day.

All things are mutually reinforcing, and balance is the true meaning of all things in nature. Since nature has given so much love to the grass and tree spirits, they will also have to pay the price. The trade-off is that their bodies will never be the size of human fingers, their strength is weak, and their innate skills can only be used to use the power of flowers and plants.

For example, you can manipulate the fluctuation of grass blades, the growth of flowers, etc. When they encounter an enemy, they burrow into the grass and manipulate the blades of grass to wrap themselves around them to avoid the eyes and ears of the enemy. Or float onto the blades of grass, and move quickly on the blades of grass with the help of the fluctuations of the blades of grass blown by the wind, which is called grass walking. They are able to control the blooming and falling of flowers so that they can get the food they need to survive.

In a word, this is a happy, carefree, free-spirited, romantic and useless creature. One of the most vulnerable demons in the Ravel system.

More than 500 years ago, the demons invaded the alliance on a large scale, and the troops led by Hilal intercepted the invasion of the demons on the front line, and after the army was destroyed, he led his troops to abandon the command ship Rabbit and fled the battlefield on the fastest five warships. They sailed through the unfamiliar stars for about a year, and when they came across a space jump point, they flew over the battleship and finally docked at Amor Star.

Of the five warships that fled, only one landed on Amor and the other four were engulfed by the hidden dangers of the universe. This group of alliance soldiers, with the reputation of fugitives, has little hope of returning to their hometown, and grieves the death of their comrades-in-arms.

They killed all the creatures they could see, but they didn't harm the Grass Elves, because the Plant Elves had contributed an invaluable piece of information.

"On the planet Amor, there is a space-time rift, through which you can go to the Dikal Empire." Cao Huang simply sat in Xiao Chunshui's palm, and the little mung bean blinked, "Our grass and wood elves believe in the god of nature, and it is said that this space-time rift is left by the god of nature, and our clan is the guardian of the space-time rift." ”

Out of the corner of Qiu Ci's eyes, he inadvertently saw that the grass rolling on the ground was about to turn over, and his index finger hooked him, and the grass rolled back to the ground.

He looked angrily at Qiu Ji, who opened his mouth, revealing his snow-white teeth. Xiaocao and the big grass beside him trembled, one continued to roll silently, and the other looked away in fear.

"But our people betrayed their oath to the gods of nature, and in order not to be killed by the mad humans, we told them about the existence of this rift in time and space, in exchange for a glimmer of life."

Cao Huang smiled bitterly: "After Colonel Hilal led his troops through the space-time rift, the grass produced by the Amor Star Society has decreased year by year, and it is even more rare to see it now. This is the punishment of the God of Nature for our rebellion, and God will starve us to death by betrayal. ”

"Colonel Hilal...... Is he so cruel? Xiao Chunshui suspected in his heart that although the relevant history was extremely ironic about Hilal, without exception it was said that he was an extremely merciful person, how could he issue such a cruel massacre order?

"As I said, Colonel Hilal can't stop it, and his men don't seem to listen to him." Cao Huang sighed: "After our clan contributed this information, it was Colonel Hilal who tried hard to dissuade them, and they let our clan go. ”

Xiao Chunshui nodded clearly, Colonel Hilal was tired of his reputation, and his subordinates had always respected him very much, and everyone knew this.

"Why don't they look for a route back to the Pandora Alliance, and instead choose to go to the Dikal Empire?" Qiu Ci interjected and asked, the empire and the alliance are a thousand-year-old feud, and this group of alliance soldiers has no reason to choose to go to the empire, but should find a way to return to the alliance.

Cao Huang's pair of little mung bean eyes looked at her, brought the small grass stick used as a crutch to his mouth, took two bites of it, and after chewing a few times, spit out the broken grass stick that had lost its moisture.

He looked up and explained, "I'm thirsty, it's much more comfortable to chew a mouthful of sweet grass, do you want it?" As he spoke, he handed them the small straw stick in his hand.

After seeing the two of them shake their heads, he withdrew his straw stick and said, "Because from here to the Alliance, the interstellar distance is hundreds of millions of light years, and although there are countless spatial jump points on the way, they are all in the influence area of the ten major royal families. The ten royal clans are not comparable to our weak demon clans, if this group of humans goes, won't they be looking for death? ”

"So far?" Qiu Ci frowned, then how can she and Xiao Chunshui go back to the alliance? . (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
