Volume 1 The Chili Sauce Smuggler Won't Meet the Waste Witch Chapter 123 The Patriarch's Request
That night, after the warm hospitality of the elves, everyone rested in their rooms.
But one of them didn't be able to sleep peacefully - Zhen Xiang was called out by the Elph patriarch when he was just about to sleep, and Junxun didn't bother to deal with Zhen Xiang - probably because he thought there was no danger so he continued to sleep, right?
Walking out with the Elph patriarch, Zhen Xiang followed the Elph patriarch on the road formed by the branches and asked, "What is the patriarch doing when he comes out of me so late?" β
Elf led Zhen Xiang out of the village together, sat down at the edge and said, "Actually, I just want to talk to Miss Zhen Xiang about something...... Miss Zhen Xiang, it seems that you and the Black Mage are fellow villagers, right? β
Zhen Xiang nodded, and Elf continued: "Actually, when the Black Mage came to us...... I had a night with the Dark Mage......"
"Wait a minute!" Zhen Xiang raised his hand and stopped, "Are you going to say something that is inappropriate for children?" β
"No......" Patriarch Elph continued, "I had a night of conversation with the Dark Mage......"
Can you especially not speak in such a misleading way?
"I had a night of conversation with the Dark Mage. And that night, the Dark Mage told me that the time when the elves would leave the sacred tree and appear before humans would not be long before the time. β
Zhen Xiang scratched his head blankly and asked, "Then what are you telling me about this?" β
Elf smiled at Zhen Xiang and said, "The Black Mage once told me that it would not be long before a huge disaster would occur in this world, and countless monsters would invade this world. And when the time comes, humans will definitely not be able to resist those monsters on their own, as for the elves...... With such a scarce number of elves, it is definitely impossible to escape. As for the demons...... At that time, the black mage said that if the major races on the continent could not unite, the only thing that would end up would be the path of destruction. β
What is that guy talking about? Zhen Xiang was puzzled: "What's the use of you telling me this?" Let's not talk about whether the magician's words can be trusted, even if his words are worth believing...... Do you think humanity will accept you? β
"Of course not." The Elph patriarch shook his head and smiled helplessly, "The Dark Mage also had an expression on his face that he didn't want to believe when he said this to me at that timeβhe was simply joking with me. β
So what are you telling me about this...... Zhen Xiang was almost fooled, thinking that he was called to this world to save the world, only to find out that others were fooling him.
Then Elf said, "But I really feel that the elves need to get out of this swamp." We've lived here for thousands of years, and we don't know what the outside world has become...... If we reappear in front of humanity, will humanity still choose to exterminate us? I can't guarantee it, but ......"
The two stood up, and Elph said with one hand behind his back to the village: "Miss Zhen Xiang, please look - this area, this area where we can't even run to our heart's content is the territory of our elven race, plus the other two races, the range of activities we can move around is only so small. I've had enough of such a small life, even if I am blessed by the sacred tree, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and I won't be attacked by monsters, I can only live on this branch for thousands of years...... I've had enough......"
Zhen Xiang is also a little sympathetic, after all, a race can only live on this branch for thousands of years, if it were Zhen Xiang, he would have gone crazy a long time ago, right? There is no WiFi, no computer, no mobile phone, and he can't even work in the field - Zhen Xiang recalled the joy of running around chasing his third uncle in the field with a sickle, and it is estimated that these elves will never experience it in their lifetime, right?
Seeing Zhen Xiang's sympathetic expression towards her, Elph said again: "Although the apocalyptic words I said just now were joked on by the Dark Mage, but then I was seriousβI asked the Black Mage if there was any way to get our clan out of here and live in the outside world. The Dark Mage replied...... When one day, a girl with the mysterious powers bestowed by the goddess arrives, she can help the elves get out of here and go to the outside world. β
Zhen Xiang knew that that person was himself...... That's not right! How did the Dark Mage know that he would come to the territory of the Elves in the first place? Will he predict the future or what?
Zhen Xiang was puzzled: "Patriarch, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that ...... It's just that I can't do anything but make chili sauce, so how can you let me help you? β
Elph continued to smile, "I've thought about this for a long time - the Dark Mage has told us that no one can save us, only we can save ourselves...... Miss Zhen Xiang, in fact, I asked Miss Ania before I came to you about your next trip. And Miss Ania also told me that you are going to go to the territory of the demons. β
Wait, wait, wait! Demon territory?! How come I don't know?! Didn't Ania say that?
Zhen Xiang turned his head and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go find Ania ......"
"No need to look for it, I'm here." Ania suddenly came out from the back of the next room and said, "I've been following you since just now...... She's right, we're really going to the Demon Clan's territory next. β
Zhen Xiang patted his head and said, "My aunt, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Although I don't really understand, but the territory of the demon clan ...... Shouldn't it be safer than a graveyard of the dead? β
"Of course, if the demons find out that a human has entered their territory...... He will definitely be arrested and tortured to death with all punishments. Ania saw that Zhen Xiang was about to pinch herself, just like pinching the goddess before, she quickly explained: "But! But we have the means! β
Zhen Xiang stopped and asked, "What's the way?" I can't tell you that Lao Tzu will strangle you! β
Ania smiled: "Originally, I planned to wait until I had collected everything else before going to the Demon Territory, but today, inside the Holy Gate, I thought of a way to let us enter the Demon Territory safe and sound...... This method needs to be kept secret from the patriarch, so forgive me for not saying it here, but I definitely have a way to enter the demon territory, so I also agreed to the patriarch's request - as long as you agree too, we will help her with this. β
