"Liu Li, what do you think. Powell quietly came to Liu Li's side and asked, Heng joined him without knowing before leaving. I don't know why Herman would agree to this elf companion, you know, it was not a wise decision to accept an unfamiliar person into the team halfway, and I don't know how many caravans paid a heavy price for it. Even when Liu Li joined the escort team, Powell also took a lot of words, which was due to his somewhat "face" in Casfield City. I don't know how Heng persuaded Herman, and even let him vacate a carriage.

"I thought it was going to be ...... Ahem, nothing. Liu Li's attention was completely on Heng at this time, and he almost subconsciously gave that strange response to Powell's question. After settling down, Liu Li said with relief: "It's nothing, it's probably for me, don't worry, she won't have any bad intentions." Although there was not much contact, Liu Li could still feel Heng's gaze.

"Forget it, don't follow here, go to the carriage, the elf girl has been watching you for a long time. Although he doesn't have Liu Li's clear perception, Powell has been a mercenary for so long, and if he doesn't have good camouflage skills, he can't deceive his eyes. And he can also see that Liu Li's mind is not here at all now, the elf is paying attention to Liu Li, he can see it, but Liu Li is not paying attention to the other party all the time, "Be careful, if there is anything to call me directly, I promised Li'er to send you to the place safely." ”

"Hey, you say, that elf can't be a fancy to Liu Li, right?"

"Hey, that's also Liu Li's blessing, maybe elves like to be tender. ”

"Be vigilant, stinky boys! We're about to enter Hengduan Mountain!" Powell was noncommittal about the discussion among the members, he had been so skeptical before, but then dismissed the idea. That's an elf, a notoriously proud race, how could it be possible to fall in love with a human. And the way she looked at Liu Li, she didn't seem to mean that.

"I didn't expect you to come along. Liu Li, who entered the carriage, was not polite and sat directly opposite Heng. Although they had only met last night and had not communicated much, Liu Li felt that Heng was like a friend who had known each other for a long time and was familiar with each other. Liu Li also felt a little strange about this, and he also knew in his heart that in this not peaceful world, he must put the four words of caution in the first place when going out, but for Heng, he couldn't take precautions at all.

It is just drop-in. Seeing Liu Li sitting opposite without a trace of guard, Heng was also very happy. "I'm going to go back to the Elven Forest in a while, and the direction is just the same. Of course, also because I can walk with you. ”

In addition to the southern forests, there are of course other forest areas on the continent, including many world-famous dangerous areas. Although it is not as boundless as the Jedi, it is not easy for those who rush in to get out, and the Elven Forest is such a forest. The Elven Forest is located in the northeastern part of the Kronos Empire, near the entire central part of the Oder continent. As the common home of the elves in this world, the Elven Forest is rarely infested with large magical beasts, but that doesn't mean it's safe. In addition to the elves, the most distinctive creatures in the Elven Forest are the goblins that make everyone who has heard them talk about it. They are only well-behaved and obedient when faced with elves, but in the perception of other races, goblins are the spokesmen for words such as mischievous and mischievous. No one knows why those little girls with wings the size of a palm have such a strong curiosity and energy far beyond that of other creatures in the world, especially in the form of their exuberant curiosity, which makes people speechless. For example, when they see an unfamiliar creature, the first thought in their little minds is to throw something at it and see how the other person reacts. And this creature has a talent that no other race can envy - shuttle, they can break free from all bondage, whether it is material or elemental, the rope can't be bound, the cage can't be closed, and even the bondage magic can't be done on them. At the same time, they also have a keen sense of malice, no matter at any time and place, as long as you have a little bit of malice towards them, even if you just think about it in your heart and don't show the slightest hint, they can easily detect it. It's a vengeful creature, and if you offend them, you'll have to deal with the little troubles you can't guard against for the next few years, until they lose interest in you, or something more interesting catches their attention. In the entire continent, no one would want to provoke them. Entering the Elven Forest rashly may not be life-threatening, but it will definitely be embarrassing. Liu Li also once wondered if the feeling between him and Heng would be because he could also act like a goblin and not die.

In the eyes of others, Heng is like really falling in love with Liu Li, even during the vigil, he will sit quietly next to Liu Li. In fact, Liu Li knew that the feeling between the two was not as others thought, but they were simply willing to stay with each other, even if they were just sitting there together. Although they all wanted to know the reason for this feeling, no one directly mentioned it, but felt it silently. It's not so much a tacit understanding, but another effect based on that feeling, which is indescribable.

At night, around the campfire, the mercenaries and merchants gathered together laughed loudly. The mercenaries were boasting about the thrilling battles they had experienced and how many times they had died, while the merchants were showing off the far-flung places they had traveled to and the wonders of the scenery they had seen. Heng would occasionally take out her instrument and play a song to cheer everyone up, while Liu Li watched quietly from the sidelines.

"I'm going to enter Hengduan Mountain tomorrow. Powell didn't know when he came to Liu Li's side, "How about it, it's been a good past two days, and I have a beautiful woman as my companion every day." ”

Liu Li didn't pay attention to Powell's ridicule, through getting along these days, he faintly felt that the feeling between him and Heng was caused by his special physique, but the specific reason was unknown. "Uncle, what's in Hengduan Mountain, why are other people so nervous. Liu Li knew that he would have to pass through many rift valleys similar to the terrain of the first line of heaven through Hengduan Mountain, but he didn't know what kind of danger he would face. Liu Li also noticed the change in the atmosphere of the entire team. Old Wells's collection of books is not all-encompassing, at least the introduction of Hengduan Mountain is not very detailed, Liu Li decided to ask clearly, and he is also mentally prepared for accidents.

"In fact, the most dangerous place on the road is the Transverse Rift Valley. Powell said to Liu Li while reminiscing: "That rift valley is too narrow, probably only enough for four carriages in parallel, huh...... There may be only three wagons like a caravan, and the rift is a maze of forks in the road. Moreover, there are rock beasts there......"

Through Powell's narration, Liu Li also has a better understanding of the dangers of the Transverse Rift Valley. The most threatening of all is the Rock Beast. It was a magical beast that was good at camouflage and burrowing, a rock next to the mountain wall, and an inconspicuous protrusion on the ground that could turn into a dangerous attacker in the next moment. It will drag people directly into the mountain wall or underground caves, and the people who are dragged into it rarely get out safely. In addition, rock beasts rarely act alone, and although they are not of high rank as social monsters, they know how to fight together like wolves in the grassland. Coupled with the terrain that suits them to play in the Transverse Rift Valley, the kind of sudden appearance and surprise attacks from the underground, from both sides, and even overhead can easily throw the whole team into chaos.

Due to the presence of rock beasts, the terrain of the Transverse Rift Valley is not static. Rock beasts carry rocks and block the roads that once existed, and no one knows how many rock beasts are hidden in the rocks that block the road. Maybe not a single one, or maybe it was made entirely of rock beasts. If it weren't for the fact that the Hengduan Mountains run from east to west and cover an extremely wide area and are extremely difficult to cross, no one would have chosen such a dangerous road. But this is also the last barrier between the Southern Forest Jedi and the hinterland of the Empire, in the distant past, the Southern Forest Jedi Demon Rebellion has been out of the control of the Empire more than once, but was eventually stopped by the Hengduan Mountain Range, and the role played by the Rock Beasts in it is also indispensable. If it weren't for that, the Empire wouldn't have made up its mind to wipe out the rock beasts by now.

"Okay, your little beauty is back, and I won't be here to be an eyesore. Seeing that Heng's performance was over, Powell did not continue to stay by Liu Li's side.

"What are you talking about?" Heng's mood looked good, although others might not be able to notice any changes in Heng's mood, but Liu Li could see it at a glance. Speaking of which, Heng's mood seems to have been very good these days, especially after every time he comes to play a song.

"The thing about the Transverse Valley. Heng's previous question was extremely natural, and he didn't have any concerns about whether Powell would say something inconvenient for him to know about Liu Li, and Liu Li's answer was the same, and he didn't feel strange at all about Heng's questioning attitude. As the two spent more and more time together, although the feeling between them did not change in a stronger direction, they became more and more accustomed to this feeling of closeness.

"The Rift Valley is indeed a dangerous place. "Heng doesn't know much more about the rift than Powell. "But at least a few hours a day you don't have to worry too much about the rock beasts, your 'omniscient' and my 'natural heart' can easily detect their movements, although they can't stay in that state for long, but they can be used in turn for a few hours a day. ”

Hearing Heng say this, Liu Li was also a lot more relieved, relying on the two of them every day to make the tense nerves of others relax a little for a while, which is not a little bit of a difference for the improvement of the state of the entire team.

"Well, but it's better to save some energy, if you really encounter danger, the spells of the two of us are also the key to keeping the team safe. For Heng's supplement, Liu Li also knew in his heart that he would definitely not completely pin his safety on others, at least the power of self-preservation would still remain.

Two days passed quietly in a calm hurry, and the entrance of the Transverse Rift Valley was also like the giant mouth of a demonic beast, presented in front of Liu Li's eyes.
