When the personnel arrived, everyone exchanged a few words of greeting, and the atmosphere was warm. Jiao Ming looked at everyone and felt familiar, but he couldn't remember the name on his lips for a while, so he had to vaguely go. Emily briefly introduced herself, and then simply and directly reminded everyone to reduce her magic fluctuations, which can make teleportation easier. Everyone had obviously been reminded by the elders in advance, and they were full of promises.

The journey that took a day and a half was uneventful, and although it could have been faster, why be so tired. It's just that when camping on the island halfway through, Emily was blown by the cold sea breeze in early spring, and her image was completely lost. Jiao Ming didn't have the heart to make fun of anything, so he immediately called on everyone to add firewood to the bonfire, and used condensation to make a ventilating barrier to prevent the situation from deteriorating. After all, the other third-line magicians just had a fever, but it was more unsettling than the water magic warriors losing their arms and thighs.

Fortunately, when she arrived at her destination, Emily's nasal congestion and runny nose disappeared, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Needless to say, the dwarves greeted them warmly, but only a few dwarves who were translators, and their rather peculiar accents impressed Jiao Ming with their crocodile dialect.

After the residences of the ten crocodile leaders were arranged, and Emily completed the condolences of the mage tower, the master and apprentice had a brief dinner before saying goodbye to the elder woman of the dwarven tribe.

The return journey is naturally much faster, and there are no outsiders around, and the conversation is more relaxed and casual, and the two of them talked and laughed before midnight to Changteng Town. Jiao Ming tried to hold back on the grounds of fatigue, but Emily politely refused, and the teleportation disappeared.

Jiao Ming stood in place for a while, and the greedy thought in his heart, which had long been buried and almost suffocated to death, suddenly sprouted. You know, objectively speaking, Emily is a beauty who is similar to Rose, and she is still the kind that has nothing to do with vases.

I have to say that if the desires in human instinct are opened, it is like a hungry wolf that has tasted blood, and it will be difficult to control it. For example, Jiao Ming at this time blew in the cold night breeze of the spring night for half an hour before he completely suppressed his disagreement and went back to the house to sleep.

In the following time, Jiao Ming dealt with various miscellaneous matters for the development of crocodile scales while trying to clear the torture memory. And Binglian and Xiaoshi took turns to massage their souls with earth-based magic, although they didn't know if it was symptomatic, but they also hoped to help.

And this time, with Binglian's more intuitive observation, it was finally determined that this method of soothing the soul was similar to constantly pinching the muscles, and Xiao Shi's original description of massage was very appropriate, but it was difficult to say whether the effect was the same as that of muscle massage.

But at least Jiao Ming felt good, and the palpitations that awakened from the boundless nightmare subsided significantly and rapidly after waking up. Of course, this only makes the interval between attempts shorter, and it is of limited help to clear the level.

After a few days like this, Jiao Ming gradually became irritable but had nowhere to vent, until the dwarves on the island wrote again, only saying that the crocodile envoy was involved in trouble, and asked Jiao Ming to deal with it.

The island dwarves are not only an important ally of the Crocodile Leader, but also an important market, Binglian and Jiao Ming dare not be good at it, and while replying to ask for details, they also find the high-level of the Crocodile Leader.

Soon after, a longer letter was sent back, giving an approximate account of the situation. But it was the dwarven village on the island last night, it was the wind and rain and the lightning and thunder, and it was also the time when the gods' pet beasts laid eggs in the cave on the mountain wall. And today's daytime, when the dwarves chose eggs for adoption, they collided with two other strange dwarves, first had a quarrel, and then were killed in an instant.

The ten envoys of the crocodile lead had just arrived, and everything was not yet familiar, so they did not enter the cliff cave at all out of caution, but only stayed on the mountain road. Hearing that the situation was different, he rushed in, and when he saw that his own people were in different places, he naturally couldn't stand idly by, so he swarmed up and attacked the two strange dwarves directly. These two strange dwarves are not simple, they are both at the peak of the Eight Rings, desperately resisting, and fleeing as soon as they are captured.

Hearing this, the crocodile leader felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and even said that it was not an exaggeration to say that it should be commended. Binglian, who read the letter, also looked confused and turned to the next page. Jiao Ming had a bad premonition, could it be that the dwarf tribe still had some strange rules, and this was exactly the case.

According to the slightly inconsistencies in the letter, it is to the effect that there is some kind of 'general rule' that all dwarves follow. According to its statement. First of all, the dwarf village does not have natural ownership of the eggs in the cave, everyone competes openly, even if there are casualties, it is another set of disposal procedures, and you can't beat the eggs in the cave and damage the rest of the eggs.

Second, because the island dwarves were relatively isolated, they were not strict in making these 'rules', and the descriptions of the enemy were vague, sometimes referring to the people of the theocratic kingdom of Ifusen, and sometimes simply 'tall men'. In this way, these people in the crocodile collar are in a vague area, how to define it, that is, who has the loudest voice and who is reasonable.

Unfortunately, this is just an ordinary dwarven village, and the other party claims to be an important person in another large clan. If what he said is true, and the other party's backstage is willing to make a big deal out of it, it may be a crime of 'collaborating with the enemy'.

At this point, Binglian shook the letter paper and said, "...... There is no one later, if you have any questions, you should first raise them, write a letter and send them over, and then discuss other things not too late. ”

The crocodile leader looked at each other at the core level, and they didn't know what to say for a while. After a moment of silence, the crocodile duke sighed lightly and said, "I didn't expect that as soon as people passed, there would be moths." ”

The Lady Thorn defended herself. "They can't be blamed either. At that time, I was killed, so I couldn't stare at the side like a wooden pole. ”

The Crocodile Duke shook his head. "It's a fait accompli and no brains. Binglian, you've seen the patriarch of that village, how is it?"

"Not an indecisive person. I believe that if the two strange dwarves are captured, she knows how to do it the easiest. But if you run away, you don't have to think much about killing people. ”

"What about our attitude?"

"I can't see it, but I can't think of a reason to resolutely protect it. After a pause, Bing Lian continued: "In addition, I have a vague feeling that this old woman patriarch is probably hinting at something to us, but it is just that the language of the relay is different, and it has become undecipherable. ”

According to this line of thought, Chunyu gave a guess: "Could it be that we are implying that we will do some good, that is, to avoid disaster? After all, this dwarven village gradually changed its attitude because of the benefits." And considering the local situation, there is no need to expect too much from other dwarven tribes, it should almost be a poor jingle. As for the current small contradictions, how big of a deal is it that an eight-ring water system magic warrior was just beaten up?"

All the high-level leaders nodded in agreement and echoed it. More suspicious people make guesses on this basis, the identity of the strange dwarf is also nonsense, how can important people act secretly, and they don't say hello in advance, and they collide directly in the cliff cave. Everything may simply be that the patriarch and lady took the opportunity to slander people.

This time, however, there was much less echo. This method is really suspected of being 'short-sighted', and it is not like an old man who has been weathered and is about to enter the coffin.

"Write to the patriarch and ask what he thinks. Saburu Hailstone spoke slowly.

This is obviously an effective temptation, Binglian started writing directly, and Jiao Ming saw that no one objected, and sent the letter out without waiting for the handwriting to dry thoroughly. Within five minutes, the reply arrived, and there was only one sentence in it: "The person who came to talk about it came to talk in detail." ”

At this moment, everyone felt a kind of sincerity. In contrast, if the other party directly prescribes a list, or more explicitly implies that the fortune will be eliminated. Although this matter is understood, the entire business cooperation plan is very likely to hit the rocks. After all, it is really too risky to cooperate with a force with bad intentions.

The crocodile duke coughed lightly to attract everyone's attention, and said, "Then simply bypass the others, and let's discuss who to send." ”

Jiao Ming didn't feel that he was trusted enough to handle this matter alone, but the teleportation work didn't think secondly, so he hurriedly raised his hand to speak. "Time is pressing, and I can't take it with me when there are too many people. ”

Binglian will inevitably support Jiao Ming out of public and private considerations. "Of course, it's not a fight, it's going to do a lot of people. And if the situation is not right, you have to run away, and you can't bring more people. ”

Duke Crocodile and Saburu Hail glanced at each other, reached a tacit consensus, and said, "It's better to have only two people, your daughter, you and Chunyu." ”

These two are the heirs of the first two families of the Crocodile Territory, and according to tradition, they are also the main and deputy shelves of the future Crocodile Territory. It is natural to let out and cooperate in dealing with problems. Even if it is messed up, it is a kind of 'running-in', and it is not a complete loss.

Duke Crocodile made a decision directly, and he meant that his own woman was on a business trip, so others naturally had no objections. Although the three of them were reluctant to give up their son, they thought about the importance of this matter, so they had to say goodbye for a while, and set off overnight after a little preparation.

Jiao Ming used the magic addiction potion with refreshing functions throughout the whole process, and with all his strength, although there were no silver ring fragments, it only took two hours to reach the destination. Then ignore the rest, lie down and rest. When he woke up, he saw that it was sunrise outside, but that feeling of exhaustion made Jiao Ming understand that this was a matter of jet lag, and he must not have rested enough.

But at this time, how can I sleep again? After washing his face with cold water, he went out and went straight to the dwarven council hall of his memory.

And there was really a conversation here, Binglian and the village elder woman were working next to each other, and there were several translators behind them. This scene made Jiao Ming have a sense of déjà vu, and after thinking about it, he remembered that it was common in news broadcasts, and Binglian must have secretly learned when watching memories.

The two women, who didn't want to disturb each other's conversation, Jiao Ming's eyes swept and saw Chunyu squatting in the corner of the room playing with the condensation dagger. Saburu's family is inherited, and it is already 'superior', and now Spring Rain is crowded in the dwarf pile, and it seems that squatting is the most unattractive posture.

And Chunyu also found Jiao Ming who slipped through the door at the same time, and waved his hand to greet him. "You're finally awake?"

"Woke up, woke up, but didn't sleep enough. Jiao Ming replied, and then asked rhetorically: "Looking at this, the situation seems to be good?"

"Not long after I came, Binglian used soul communication, and this trick is really good. As for the situation, it's not good. With this as the opening remark, Chunyu summarized it from the beginning.

However, it is said that this dwarf race is not monolithic, and it is divided into many tribes according to the color of the rune of the flesh wings of the god's pet beast. The village where you are located is clearly a member of the Blue Clan, and the two strange dwarves are black. Moreover, there is little interaction between the two tribes of blue and black, and the history is strictly settled, and it can be said that it is hostile.

In addition, the identity of the captive important person has been confirmed, and the black tribe has used space magic to send a formal application for negotiation, and threatened to release the person immediately, otherwise the trouble will make this side 'unable to eat and walk around'. And the old woman's village head, on her part, has also sent a letter to the upper echelons of the blue tribe, and the content of the reply seems to be quite optimistic.

After all, the two eight-ring masters sneaked in, saying that it was fair competition to obtain eggs, but there was obviously something strange in this matter. Even if according to the 'big rules', the mistake here is more serious, but if you think about it a little more, you can't admit it immediately, and it is important to figure out whether there is still a hidden secret.

Jiao Ming was not interested in these intrigues, raised his hand to interrupt, and asked, "Let's confirm first, what is the contrast between the strength of the blue and black sides?" Also, how many tribes are there among these dwarves?"

"The blue is weaker, and we're just an ordinary village, and the captive is the brother-in-law of the black clan chief. As for how many tribes, the dwarf aunt village chief didn't know, at least there were at least fifteen of them. ”

Jiao Ming nodded and asked, "What about the overall ranking of the blue and black tribes?"

"The black tribe sits on the lookout. We're blue, hehe, maybe seven or eight. But I saw that the old lady's expression when she said this, it should have been a bit of a boast. ”

Pouting, Jiao Ming said: "This is not an optimistic situation, there must be some positive factors, don't sell it." ”

"There is something wrong with both sides in this matter, and they are pinched by the other party, and they also have excuses to shirk. The biggest possibility is that it is a war of words, which has a big impact and takes a long time. Optimistically, this matter is best a topic of discussion for the entire dwarven clan after dinner, but it is a good opportunity for us to expand our influence. Even if you end up being kicked out of the Dwarven Islands, business can grow by choosing an island on the edge as a transit. ”

"Is this what you think?"

"This is what I discussed with Binglian when we adjourned the meeting before. ”

That being said, Jiao Ming guessed that the formulation of this big plan must be led by Binglian. Because in Chunyu's mind, there are still more muscles and a group of three or five people who are more intelligent.

At this moment, there was another wave of spatial fluctuations, and a letter appeared in the hand of the patriarch and the old woman. He glanced at it and handed it to the translator behind him. Jiao Ming listened attentively and also knew the latest developments. The Blue Clan's higher-ups simply took the lead in making a big deal and continued to report it to an agency in charge of dwarven affairs. Now this is the task to wait for the news with peace of mind, and at the same time, people will be guarded.
