"At first, I thought it was the elven lord who had manifested himself, but then I took a closer look, and it turned out that Mr. was a human!" the patriarch thought of something, and couldn't help but shake his head: "But then I was even more surprised... The fact that Mr. is so friendly to the foresters and doesn't even mind playing with two forest kids makes me feel very good. Feeling. You must know that the humans who are friendly with the forest people have not met in the hundred years since I was born..."

Xu Mu smiled and said, "Patriarch, everything will be fine." ”

The patriarch forced a smile: "Thank you, sir, for your good words... But there is a saying that is very true, Sir will always be a friend of our foresters!

"You're welcome. ”

"No, no... This is the choice of the elves, since the elves can surround Mr., it means that you are destined to have a relationship with our foresters, as long as you don't dislike us, we foresters welcome your arrival at any time! If you need us foresters to do something, just mention it, we will spare no effort to help!"

Seeing the patriarch speak like this, especially the Luya couple next to him who also looked serious, Xu Mu suddenly felt a little moved in his heart...

After all, we just met today, and we didn't even talk a few words, just because he was surrounded by elves and treated the forest friendly, so he said that he would always believe in himself and welcome himself.

It's so simple that I have to say that he likes the foresters more and more.

The world, perhaps, isn't entirely dirty...

Xu Mu came to this world to accept the days of cruel survival, and most of the people he met were designed to survive, and they didn't even like to kill others for themselves.

However, the forester is like a unique scenery in this world, which moved Xu Mu.

"Speaking of which, sir, I heard Luya say that when you came to the Northern Forest, you had something to ask for, and even had to find Granny Tree?"

Hearing the patriarch's inquiry, Xu Mu also became serious, after all, this is the right matter.

"That's right, I did have something to do with coming to the Northern Forest, although it's okay to talk to the patriarch directly, but because of the particularity of the matter, I also want to meet Granny Shu..."

Luya suddenly interjected: "Speaking of this time... Isn't Granny Tree all dormant?"

Luya and his wife glared at Luya, which frightened Luya and quickly lowered her head.

The patriarch coughed and hurriedly explained to Xu Mu: "It's winter now, and Granny Shu is in a dormant state, and then she will wake up when spring comes." ”

Xu Mu couldn't help frowning: "This... To be honest, I don't have a lot of time, so I probably won't be in the boreal forest for long. ”

"It's okay!You're a friend of our foresters, and if you have an urgent need to see Granny Tree, that's no problem!" the patriarch patted his chest, "Granny Tree is just dormant, I'll try to wake up Granny Tree tomorrow, and then Mr. will be able to see Granny Tree." ”

"It's... Is it appropriate?"

"It's fine!"

Xu Mu felt embarrassed, but he came to the Northern Forest for business, not for fun, and he was no longer polite, and nodded gratefully.

Next, everyone continued to eat, and under the mediation of Luya's mother, the patriarch and Luya's father gradually let go, their bodies relaxed, and the chat with Xu Mu also seemed relaxed.

"What do you think of the foresters, sir?" the patriarch asked, intentionally or unintentionally.

Not only Luya and his wife pricked up their ears, but even Luya couldn't help but raise her head to look at Xu Mu.

After all, it is a fact that Xu Mu is good to her, but Xu Mu has never talked about what kind of forest people she thinks, and she is also very curious.

Xu Mu smiled softly: "What can you think?" I don't like racism per se, and I don't even deny the whole race because of one person or something. ”

"yes, yes... In the magic academy before, two human students bullied me and threw stones at me, and Mr. was so angry that he grabbed the two of them and beat them..."Luya said this, looking at Xu Mu with emotion.

Xu Mu's rise for himself left an indelible trace in Luya's heart, this is the first time that someone is willing to stand up for the forest people, I am afraid that this matter will not be forgotten until a hundred years after Xu Mu's death.

Luya and his wife were very surprised when they heard this, and they hurriedly thanked Xu Mu.

Seeing this, Xu Mu hurriedly waved his hand and said that it didn't have to be like this.

"Thanks to Mr. here, no one will bully me in the Academy of Magic after that!"

"You're my friend, I naturally won't let people bully you, it's just a simple truth for me. ”

Seeing this, the patriarch also hurriedly thanked him gratefully, Luya and his wife did not have a high vision, unlike the patriarch, he sent many foresters out on a mission, but no human was willing to treat them kindly.

Xu Mu is the first one in the past hundred years!

"There are only racial differences between humans and forest people, and racial differences should not be treated as racial discrimination. Xu Mu smiled and explained his views to everyone, "What is discrimination? Discrimination is one party's contempt and contempt for the other, thinking that one's status is higher than the other, even if the other party is better than oneself, he resolutely denies the other party, thinking that the other party is dirty and inferior." ”

"To me, this is extremely ridiculous. Xu Mu shook his head, a little disdainful: "Although there is indeed a substantial difference between humans and forest people, this should not constitute discrimination. For example, Lua is better at alchemy than me, and I'm sure of that, I'm not as good as her in alchemy. Also, Lua is a girl who is willing to do anything, which is better than me. ”

Hearing Xu Mu praise himself in public again, Lu Ya's face suddenly turned red, and Lu Ya and his wife felt very relieved about this.

"If Lua's energy is 100%, she will put all her energy into it when she encounters something, which is commendable. After all, in the human world, even if it is a harmless thing, as long as someone does it, they will think about other negative things in the process of doing it, so as to consume their energy. ”

"I've always been very sure of Luya's strengths, and I'm also aware of Luya's shortcomings, for example, Luya is easy to escape, and the first reaction when encountering unexpected things is not to solve or face them, but to escape, which is not good. Xu Mu looked at Luya and smiled gently, "But in the same way, I won't hate Luya because of her shortcomings." It is common sense that people have shortcomings, there are no perfect people in the world, especially it is normal for friends to tolerate each other, so even if Lua has shortcomings, it does not prevent me from appreciating her. For example, I have the same shortcomings, but Rua never dislikes me. ”

Luya's face was flushed, her head was lowered, her slender ears were shaking, and the food in her hand suddenly felt much more fragrant.

The patriarch and Luya and his wife looked at each other, and their expressions were very surprised.

They didn't expect Xu Mu's opinion of the forest people to be so normal, a little abnormal.

Because at the beginning, they all thought that the reason why Xu Mu was friendly to the forest people was perhaps out of sympathy.

However, they never thought that Xu Mu really regarded them as human beings.

Fair view.
