The vastness of the Meliane Forest is beyond He Ping's imagination, in the main world, the forests have begun to degrade, they are all distributed all over the world, and the area of the Meliane Forest is enough to be comparable to the land area of the largest countries in the main world, not to mention the main world that has been developed, even in the military world, He Ping has never heard of such a large forest, from the elves, they are Noldor elves, also known as forest elves, since their birth, they have been living here.

Along the way, He Ping saw all kinds of trees, some of which also bore all kinds of fruits, these were the rations of the elves, and for the nearby orc tribes, when their own food and prey were not enough to supply everyone in the tribe, they had to start a war, either to raid other orcs, or to attack the Meliane forest, to rob those fruits from the forest, and at the same time to consume the population in order to survive the period of food shortage.

After walking forward for a while, He Ping saw other elves, like the warriors, these elves are mainly women, and there are few men, but these elves have no armor such as leather armor and robes, and there are no weapons in their hands, and the clothes on their bodies are different from what He Ping has seen before, different from the fancy and monotony of the main world and the military world, and different from the straight-line clothing in the giant beast paradise, the elves' costumes are mostly based on soft curves, full of beauty.

From these elves, He Ping did not feel a very strong fluctuation of magic power, obviously these are just ordinary civilians among the elves, seeing the five elf elders, these elves stood in the distance and bowed their heads, their faces were full of expressions of worship, and He Ping who walked with the elf elders was full of curiosity, these elves did not have the kind of walkie-talkie used by the elf warriors, and could not share information with the elf warriors, so they did not know He Ping's existence.

What surprised He Ping the most was that there were no houses in the general sense of the world that he had seen before, the elves lived on the trees, to be precise, inside the trees, this was already the core area of the forest, and the trees were becoming more and more ancient and stout, and the cross-section of some trees was enough to dozens of square meters, and the elves hollowed out the trees, and opened doors and windows on the trunks, so the trees were used as houses and lived in the trees.

The most amazing thing is that these stout trees that are used as houses have not died because the bark has been hollowed out inside, and the green leaves on the branches show that these trees live very well and have a strong vitality, which is absolutely contrary to common sense for He Ping, but then again, since he traveled through time and space, common sense or anything is completely useless, and everything he has experienced, none of it is in line with common sense.

The further you go in, the greater the density of elves, more and more elf civilians live here, and the houses are stout trees, except for this, the rest of the situation is similar to the world He Ping went to before, there are shops, roads, children, businessmen, and ordinary people who buy things, but He Ping found a problem, along the way, he didn't seem to see the elves who were too old, the eldest, the appearance looked close to thirty years old.

"Elder Birodis." As he walked, He Ping asked the elven elder who was the most ranked of the five elven elders, who called himself Bilodis, and who had accosted him first after meeting He Ping for the first time, "Can I ask you a slightly rude question?" ”

Birodis replied a little strangely, "Disrespect? What's the problem? If I knew, I would have tried my best to answer. ”

"That's it...... How old are you this year? This question He Ping is a little difficult to say, in the main world, asking the age of adult women is not a big taboo, this is not something that can be asked casually, if it is not familiar to a certain extent, or directly asked by the elders, it is not uncommon for the woman to be asked to turn her face directly, so He Ping was a little cautious when he asked.

"What's so rude about that?" It seems that the concerns of humans in the main world are very different from those of elves, and Birodis not only did not have any annoyance, but was a little strange why He Ping was embarrassed to ask about her age, and she replied generously: "I am two hundred and ninety-nine years old this year, and I will be three hundred years old in a few months." ”

"Huh?" He Ping was stunned, what did Bilodis say just now? Two hundred and ninety-nine years old? Three hundred years old? Is there something wrong with his ears, or is his Quenya not good enough to understand specific numbers? Or is the calendar of this world a little different? He Ping turned to the other elven elders and asked them about their ages, and the answer he got was similar to that of Bilodis, who were all over two hundred and fifty years old, and the eldest one was already three hundred and twenty years old.

Is it really a different calendar? He Ping asked Bilodis about the calendar and time algorithm used by the Noldor elves, but the result was that although the calendar and time used by the elves were not exactly the same as those in the main world, they were not much different on the whole, that is, the age of Bilodis and several other elven elders was genuine, and this age was the ancestral level for He Ping.

"What is the lifespan of that elf?"

"If nothing else, you can generally live for more than a thousand years, and the strong live longer, there was once an elf elder who set a record of two thousand eight hundred years old, and the average life expectancy we counted ten years ago, if I remember correctly, it should be 1,300 years."

He Ping was completely stunned, the civilization of the elves is completely different from the main world, one is to use external forces, the other is to cultivate themselves, with the help of external forces, it is good for humans in the main world to live for a hundred years, but for the elves who cultivate themselves, this is not even a fraction, after taking a few seconds to digest this information, He Ping asked again: "What about your appearance?" Will it stay the way it is now? ”

"Elves reach adulthood at the age of a hundred, and until adulthood is always the growth period, and will grow from babies to adult elves." Although I didn't understand why He Ping asked these questions, it was not a secret, so Birodis said without hesitation: "After a hundred years old, growth will stop, and then the appearance will slowly change, but the overall change is not much, and when you are a thousand years old, there is not much difference compared to now." ”

Not only does it live a long life, but it also lasts forever! What the elves regard as common sense is an eternal but unattainable pursuit for the people of the main world, but the two civilizations have their own merits, and it is impossible to say who is superior and who is inferior, He Ping sighed after this, and then thought of a question: "What does that teenage elf look like?" ”

Several elf elders glanced around at the surrounding elf civilians, and then their eyes were all focused on a little elf who was only a few dozen centimeters tall, couldn't even walk steadily, and could only babble in his mouth, seeing this scene, He Ping was extremely depressed.
