Walking at night is never easy, and even walking along a street full of glowing street lamps still makes people feel faintly worried about the road conditions around the road. What's more, walking at night can make people feel unusually tired.

"It's really unlucky, I was left in the wilderness at night, when will this be a stop?" Yu Yi stretched out his hand to slap a mosquito attached to his neck, for him, maybe these annoying little insects were the real unbearable existence.

"You were the one who got out of the car at that time." The shadow walking beside him reminded faintly, "If you really don't want to go like this, you can consider going back to Wildfire City." ”

"It's easy to go back, but it's hard to say how to get out next time." Yu Yi naturally knew that the female mage was just saying it casually, but she still shook her head quickly at such an idea, it was a blessing that those knights did not follow and chase out of the city. He shook Pearl, who was asleep on his back, and asked, "Is there any place to rest around here?" ”

"You can sit down and rest now if you want." This time, the silver-haired woman was serious. Indeed, not only her, but also Yu Yi and the others have also swept the sky more than once.

However, if there is no special reason, they will only choose to do so when they are extremely tired. Normally, this kind of rest has little effect, and sometimes it even makes people feel doubly tired.

At this time, Yu Yi was not tired to that extent. What's more, among the three people walking at this time, except for him, Ying is completely tired, and as for Bai Siling beside her, not only is there no fatigue on her face, but even a faint expression of joy from time to time.

He could understand why the elf was so excited, of course, because she was about to go home. Originally, from Wildfire City, they said that they would go all the way to the Forest of the Windwhisperers, but they were delayed by various things on the way, and finally crossed the sea, and ended up in the Seven Gods Arch stall.

Now that I'm finally on the right track, I believe that the elves are a little relieved in their hearts. Seeing this, Yu Yi couldn't bear to disturb Bai Siling's good mood, so he hurried overnight.

"Ei, do you know how long it will take us to get from here to the Windtalker's Forest?" He asked the elf the most important question.

"At least two months." And the silver-haired woman's answer was faster than he imagined, and as for the answer, it was even more terrifying than he imagined.

Unable to hold back for a moment, he shouted: "Two months?!" No way? Remembering that there was still one asleep on his back, he lowered his voice, "Is it that far away?" ”

"Maybe it's a little longer than that," Ying added, as he met the surprised stares of the two on the left and right, "if we just walked all the way." ”

"Whew, scare me. Can we talk without panting? Yu Yi said angrily, "Walk far, and then find a convoy, can't you just take a carriage?" Although I said that I was walking on this road, I didn't know when I would run into a carriage or something. ”

Speaking of this, Shadow stopped the previous topic and explained, "Anyway, we will definitely meet the carriage tomorrow." As a transportation hub, the road it connects to cannot be a hidden path that no one cares about, if it were not for the farce in the Seven Gods Arch today, even at night this road should be a traffic coming. ”

Yu Yi said as a matter of course: "That's good, wait until tomorrow when we stop a carriage or convoy heading north, can't we just sit on it?" ”

"Stopping a car on the road?" Shadow shook his head helplessly at the deed's thoughts, he had forgotten not only who he was, but even the most basic common sense. "Stopping a car on such an avenue should be the only one who will do such a thing. No matter what the original intention is and what the result is, unless it is an acquaintance, the act of stopping your car will inevitably lead to a fight. ”

"Can't we have a few times more money?" Yu Yi's mind still maintains the mode of taking a taxi in this first world, no matter how far the road is, no matter how far it is, it seems that as long as the fare is paid, everything will not be a problem.

"For some private caravans, it may be fine, but if you encounter a guy like you who is blocking the way, you will definitely let the guards dispose of you without hesitation from a distance. And some pony carriages will not stop, because this is usually the beginning of the robbery robbery. Shadow explained.

Before Yi could speak, Shadow continued, "Even if every carriage is willing to stop for you, how are you going to find a car that is on the way?" One by one stopped down and asked? ”

"In that case, you can only wait until the next town, stronghold, or something like that to catch a carriage." Finally gave up on his hasty ideas.

Ei, on the other hand, maintained her usual style, and then brought up the previous topic: "Even if we find the carriage, no matter how fast the carriage is." We still can't avoid the next month's journey. ”

"What do you mean? Will it take that long to have a horse-drawn carriage? Yu Yi was surprised.

"The second half of the month is inevitable, and as for how long it will be before that, it's a matter of the speed of the carriage." Shadow said.

Yu Yi finally heard the words clearly: "The second half? Before? Do you mean that we have to walk in the second half of the race? ”

Shadow nodded, "That's right, it's about that distance." For after that, it will be almost impossible for any carriage or convoy to dare to step in, and no amount of high bids will be made, except by some special means. ”

Speaking of which, the two people who were listening had new doubts. But the only one who can ask questions is Yu Yi: "Why?" Don't have a convoy to go? If we have a little more money, I don't believe that no one will go. ”

"Very few shrewd businessmen will sell their lives for money, and the second half of the journey is not under the control of human beings, and once they take it, they may be surrounded and suppressed at any time." Shadow disagrees with the deed's money theory, "Besides, if you have so much money to hire someone else's carriage, you might as well buy one yourself." ”

"yes, wouldn't we just go in our own carriage?" Yu Yi clapped his hands and said.

"No," Shadow immediately handed him a basin of cold water, "if our goal is the Forest of the Wind Whisperers, then I'd advise you not to do that." ”

"Why? Is there any danger it will cause? What is so dangerous about the north side? Eating deflated one after another, Yu Yi asked a little irritably.

"Nordion, are you kidding? Don't you know where you're going? The silver-haired woman asked rhetorically with a glance.

"Go to Bai Siling's hometown!" Yu Yi replied without thinking, and at this time, he turned his head and saw the worried look on Bai Siling's face, and he suddenly realized something. The story that Bai Siling had told him before quickly skipped in his mind, about the story between humans and elves.

"Yes, that's the hometown of the elves, the territory of the elves." Having said this, Ying couldn't help but turn her head to look at the elf beside her, it was rare that she would also take into account the feelings of others when she spoke. However, after hesitating for a moment, she still spoke: "What will happen to humans after they enter the territory of the elves? What's more, now your ultimate goal is the forbidden land of the elves - the Forest of the Wind Whisperers. You're so ignorant that you don't even know the relationship between elves and humans, do you? Swaggering through the city in a horse-drawn carriage? Then you should be heading for the elves' execution table. ”

"So how do we get there? Sneaking your way through? Although it was not a matter of a day or two that he decided to go to the Forest of the Wind Whisperers, it was only now that Yu Yi truly understood the difficulties of the Dao. Until then, he had always regarded this trip as a comfortable trip.

"That's nature, as for whether or not we can sneak into the Forest of the Wind Whisperers, it depends on our ability and luck." Shadow replied.

"How do you feel like thieves? We're sending Bosling home! Are these elves so unkind? Yu Yi sighed and said.

"It's not so much that the elves are not close to people, but that we humans will become unusually intelligent in the face of interests." Shadow said, "Even if the elves are already under such martial law to the outside world, you can still see those exquisite goods in some slave markets and underground auctions every year. It has to be said that borers are always pervasive. Someone had already tried to infiltrate under the pretext of sending the elves home, and the result was that the elves who were sent home helped their master take more elves with them. From then on, elves who fell into the hands of humans were regarded as aliens by their kindred, or at least ostracized. ”

Yu Yi was speechless when he said this, and such a method sounded very much in line with the human style. It seems that the path of friendly negotiation through the same clan has been blocked by the great human ancestors, and they can only try to sneak in. Compared with this, he was more worried about Bai Siling's situation, and he could see that the elf girl's face no longer had the joy that it had before, and sure enough, the sentence "being regarded as an alien by the same race" hurt her.

In this regard, he did not blame Shadow for saying such things, he knew Shadow, this strict mage has always told the most detailed facts without reservation. It's no wonder that he ignored the contradiction between the human race and the elf race before, and then provoked such a taboo topic on the road.

But in fact, regardless of whether all this is revealed tonight or not, as their journey progresses, Bai Siling will have to know such a ...... sooner or later Pleasant fact. In short, the original well-intentioned inquiry about the route ended up causing the three of them to fall into an eerie silence.

For a long time, Yu Yi could only hear the gentle breathing of the sleeping Pearl in his ears. He really wanted to open his mouth to comfort Bai Siling, but no matter how much he said about such a thing, it seemed to be kind words.

However, in the end, it was Yuei who broke this embarrassing situation. "Bai Siling, I'm sorry, I just wanted to tell the truth. But a word of caution, even if we take you to the Windtalker's Forest, you'd better avoid anyone but your most trusted loved ones. ”

This sentence made Yu Yi a little stunned. He couldn't believe his ears, shadow, this cold-faced iceberg beside him would actually open his mouth to apologize and say such humane words?

Just as he turned his head to look at the shadow, Bai Siling on the other side seemed to move.

Because she had just soaked in the sea water again, the two papers were so wet that she couldn't communicate with the two of them along the way. But at this time, she finally couldn't help it, took out a charcoal pen and wrote a line of words directly on her hand, and then spread her hand in front of the deed owner.

Under such an action, Yu Yi didn't need to look at it at all, he knew what the elf had just written on his hand. He grabbed the fairy's white hand with one hand and rubbed it against his clothes to wipe the carbon off it. At the same time, he said, "You don't have to think about anything too much, just follow me." ”

"I said that if I want to send you home, I will definitely send you back to the Forest of the Windtalkers. Nothing can change that! As he spoke, the handwriting on the elf's hand had been wiped clean, and he easily opened her hand.

"Just let him go, even if it doesn't matter to you, I'll let him go to the Forest of the Windtalkers. If he really wanted to know about my past with him, he would have to go there. The shadow standing between the two of them spoke coldly, and the affectionate scene between the master and servant was instantly dissolved.

However, Yu Yi must admit that if Ei told him that the Forest of the Wind Whisperers reminded him of some memories from the past, then he would go no matter how difficult it was. It's just that this sentence, when it comes out at this time, is really a bit of a bad scenery.

"Mainly, it's to send you home." Yu Yi added a sentence with some embarrassment. Then, the three of them fell silent again.

Yu Yi was eager to find a new topic, and in the middle of this thought, he suddenly thought of something. "Shadow, you said that on this road, there should be cars coming and going?"

"That's for sure, this is the avenue directly connected to the Seven Divine Arches. If you don't believe me, you can walk back into the city and ask the guards who are guarding the gates, and be sure they won't lie to you. Ying said lightly, obviously dissatisfied with the doubts revealed in the other party's tone.

Yu Yi didn't think about that, but said to himself: "You said that it was because of today's chaos in the Seven Gods Arch that this place was deserted?" Isn't that right," he questioned again, "the chaos of the Arch of the Seven Gods might make it difficult for the carriages to get out of the city, but it won't interfere with the carriages outside entering the city, right?" We walked for so long and not a carriage coming in the opposite direction didn't ......"

As they spoke, the three of them had already completed a section of the uphill road under their feet, and then from a higher position, they saw the scorching fire in the night from a distance.
