Chapter 45: The Underground Dwarves

After drilling in the staggered and complicated holes for a long time, Qing Chi finally found some light. At this point, her sense of direction was completely confused, and she didn't know how far or how deep she had gone. It wasn't until the walls of the cave began to be covered with sharp stones, and the earthy hole became a mixture of earth and rocks, that the cave became much more wide, and there were traces of artificiality. A pungent smell of smelting ore came into Qing Chi's nose. Behind a steel door, there was the sound of "ping-pong" striking iron and the sound of gurgling.

The voice...... If I'm not mistaken, it's the dwarves! Difficulty of this race still exists and lives underground? Dwarves have been very well with humans for a long time, and they not only have their own language, but they have also learned the lingua franca of mankind. Dwarves are mostly blunt and irascible, love to drink and eat, love to mint and use ore to create intricate and intricate projects, have a keen eye for ore, and if their senses are correct, they are now at the bottom of the Blade's Edge Mountains.

The door was suddenly opened, and Qing Chi was stabbed by a moment of light. Two dwarves wearing hats, thick beards, brown and black faces, short and fat, wearing leather, and only half the height of Qing Chi, stood in front of Qing Chi in unison, their eyes were both surprised and vigilant.

"Oh, Buffy, I saw a human! She also carries a bow and arrows, and she's a huntress! ”

"Oh, Kurt, you read that right, I saw a human too, it's a surprise!"

"Buffy, do you think we should let her in? If she can't find a way out, will she be trapped to death? We should let her in, the dwarves are a friendly race. ”

"Oh, Kurt, it's serious, and even though she doesn't look like a bad person, we can't tell her our names, let alone let her in."

The two dwarves, named Kurt and Buffy, looked younger, and they were arguing with red faces. Sure enough, it's two second goods! Qing Chi shook his head, showed a sincere expression, bent over and performed a common etiquette of the continent in the "Mandate of Heaven", and said in a cordial tone: "Dear Kurt and Buffy, hello. ”

"How do you know our names!" Kurt and Buffy, you look at me, I look at you.

"Because I'm a smart adventurer, smart people don't be bad people. I've been trapped in this hole for a long time, and if you don't let me in, I'm probably going to die in it. Can you bear a wise man to die in it? Of course...... If you let me in, I'll give you a gift. Qing Chi took out the thorn wine from his backpack and shook it in front of them.

"I feel like we should let her in, she's a smart human guest." The two dwarves looked at each other, nodded, and opened the door, happily leading the way with wine in their arms.

The boulder is the dome and the steel is the pillar. This huge smelting plant is very impressive. Caves stretched into the factory from afar like long snakes, and there were huge boilers in the factory, and the machines in them were constantly turning, and the boilers were smelting red-hot ore, and the white steam and boilers were ringing happily, and from time to time dwarves were pushing small carts to walk around.

"Buffy, Cotter, who is this? Oh my God, you actually brought a human into it, and I don't know if it will bring us a big disaster? Hurry up and escort this human to the Elders. A dark-faced female dwarf screamed and let out a few more cooing sounds.

"Oh, Lily, I was about to take her to the Elders, she must not be a bad person." Kurt said happily.

In the dwarven worldview, only generous people who love good wine must not be bad people. What's more, this big human is still a smart man. Soon, Qing Chi passed through the factory, turned a few mine roads, and was taken to the door of a tin house. Although the dwarves have a rough temperament, they have their own understanding of beauty. The intricate patterns on this wall, the spiral staircase layer by layer, are exquisitely admirable.

It is hard to imagine that these dwarves have created such an underground kingdom under the Blade Mountains with their small stature. Qing Chi waited in the tin house. After a while, a dwarf with a brownish-red beard, a somewhat fat body, dressed in a more ornate costume, and with the words Nice and Black Iron Dwarven Patriarch on his head, walked in.

"Human, I've been observing you for a long time, and you seem to be interested in these buildings." Ness sat down in his chair slowly, holding a jar and taking a few sips.

"Respected Patriarch, I was surprised to see you. Many years have passed, and the continent has lost its traces of the dwarves. I didn't expect that there was still a black iron dwarf clan under the Blade Mountain Range. Qing Chi saluted respectfully, "As an adventurer who came from afar and stumbled upon the entrance, I maintain a very friendly attitude towards the dwarves. If you don't mind, please accept my gift. Qing Chi piled all the rabbit meat and thorn wine in the bag on the table.

Ness's eyes were less guarded, and he took a bottle of wine, opened it and smelled it, looking very happy.

"Oh, good wine from the City of Thorns! There's no better wine in the world! With this wine, the wine made by the dwarves is literally tormenting the throat. Ness threw away the jar of wine in his hand, and happily picked up the wine of thorns.

When Qing Chi saw his appearance, he suddenly remembered someone. That dwarf...... Then, Qing Chi took out the Halba badge in his bag, "I once met a dwarf named Halba, he is very similar to you. ”

"What? You know Halba! He's still alive! Ness's eyes showed disbelief and a hint of memory, and his mouth kept muttering.

"Before the dwarves went into the underground, I had seen Halba. The little man was very arrogant, and I tried my hand at engineering with him, but I lost to him as a young man. Later, we had an agreement to compete, but the great war began to rise, and the patriarch took our clan back to the underground. ”

The dwarves do have a long lifespan. It seems that Nice and Halba are still old acquaintances.

"Since you're a student of Halba, you must not be a bad person. If you get here by mistake, I'll ask Buffy to take you out, and I hope you don't reveal our whereabouts. Ness said in a deep voice, frowning.

"Oh no, Patriarch! Those demonized gophers are making trouble again! Kurt ran in awkwardly.

"Damn! These abominable brutes! Ness shook his beard in anger and paced in place.

A player who can play should be good at discovering tasks on his own, rather than waiting for them to come. Seeing the exquisite engineering of the dwarf clan, Qing Chi didn't want to leave, if he could get a little benefit, then it would be very advantageous to fight for the wild city. At this time, Qing Chi stood up without hesitation, "Since it is the Black Iron Dwarf who is in trouble, I will definitely not sit idly by." Please let me help. ”

"Oh, I'm so touched you can say that. Kurt, bring this dear Miss Hunter here! ”

At this time, Qing Chi's personal message suddenly came to Yuan Mingqing's voice: "Qing Chi, where are you now, I came down with a team of more than ten people to look for you." But it's too complicated in this hole, and we've lost our way. ”

Damn it! She suddenly forgot that Yuan, Ming, and Qing had not had time to retreat.

"Patriarch, I still have a few friends trapped in the crooked and complicated tunnels, can you send someone to bring them out? If you can rescue my friend, we'll help you out of this big problem together. ”

"Oh, that's not a problem. Tell Coffey to go find them. We dwarves are best at getting underground. ”

Ness stroked his beard and urged a few dwarves to hurry to the mine factory to help.
