Chapter 5: Dwarf Aruba

When they arrived at the city gate, the guards guarding the gate obviously recognized this genius girl, and let her go out of the city without much hindrance.

After leaving the city, Liang Zi still didn't stop, and after a little look around, he recognized a direction and rushed away with Nangong, seemingly very anxious, even the field in the field splashed her with mud, she didn't care, just ran, and still kept urging all the way, "Hurry up, hurry, or it's too late!"

Nangong followed for a while and gradually felt struggling, Liang Zi's body was much better than him, and the martial arts she practiced were already good at speed, and he couldn't keep up.

But he knew Liang Zi's temper, if it wasn't for a reason, she would never do it, so he was patient and worked hard to keep up.

The two of them ran anxiously, but they didn't notice that there were several figures hanging in the distance behind them.

After a while, it was already dark, the faint starlight replaced the setting sun, there was silence all around, and the nearby hills became a blurred outline.

At this time, the two ran to a hill, and Liang Zi finally stopped.

This place is already several miles away from the outside of the city, Nangong recognizes this mountain, called Lishan, not high, only a hundred meters.

There is a small waterfall rushing down from the top of the mountain, but behind the waterfall, there is a small cave, which is very hidden, and it is impossible to find it unless you look carefully.

When he was a child, he and Liang Zi went out of the city to play, and accidentally discovered this cave, and the two nicknamed it "Water Curtain Cave"

Nangong took a breath and asked, "You're here?"

"Uh-huh!"

Liang Zi replied, then took out a stone from his coat pocket and rubbed it a few times against the stubborn stone on the ground, and the stone emitted a faint fluorescence.

The light is not strong, and it can barely illuminate the road under the feet of the two.

This stone is called Ming fluorite, it will glow when rubbed, it is not a strange treasure, just a strange ore, and it is very fragile, it will be broken when it is smashed, and it has almost no use value.

The children in the city almost have one piece in their hands, and they use them as toys and polish them to play with marbles at night.

Nangong smiled dumbly, it seems that Liang Zi had been prepared for a long time, and even brought this thing.

Taking advantage of the light of the bright fluorite, the two followed the trail all the way up, and after a short time, they passed through the small waterfall from the mountain and entered the so-called "water curtain cave".

The cave is very shallow, only about ten meters deep, and as soon as Nangong entered, he saw a soft light in the depths of the cave, which was particularly conspicuous in the dark. I couldn't help but be surprised.

When I came here before, it was during the day, like tonight, when I entered the Water Curtain Cave, it was the first time, but I didn't know that there would be something glowing in the Water Curtain Cave.

He glanced at Liang Zi suspiciously, Liang Zi wiped the fluorite in his hand a few more times, and said, "Come in, there is a person inside." ”

As he spoke, he walked into the depths of the cave first.

When he got closer, Nangong found that in the water curtain cave, next to the soft light, there was really a "person" sitting.

Nangong couldn't help but gasp!

This is a dwarf! a dwarf that has long been extinct in the Lost Continent!

As early as the ancient period, as for how far back and how ancient, Nangong didn't know, at that time, the Lost Continent was not only a human race, but also other intelligent races, such as elves, dwarves, tree people, orcs, and so on...... From a human point of view, these races are collectively called - alien!

The human race and the major alien races coexist peacefully on the Lost Continent, and there are still many alien technologies and creations on the Lost Continent today, which have been handed down at that time.

The most obvious is that the leather goods produced by Nangong's own workshop are the techniques left by the dwarves.

It's just that later, for some reason, maybe because of the lack of resources, or maybe because of the scarcity of aura, or more reasons, maybe because of the change of the environment and climate, all the major alien races moved away from the Lost Continent and went to live in the drifting islands above the continent, leaving only the most adaptable human beings, who still stayed in the Lost Continent to thrive.

The last dwarf of the Lost Continent that has information to be found has been thousands of years ago.

In other words, the alien race has been extinct in the Lost Continent for at least a thousand years!

It's just that now, I don't know where a dwarf came out, an injured dwarf, and it happened to be hidden in this cave and was discovered by Liang Zi.

As recorded in the history books, this dwarf was short in stature, only as tall as a human child of eight or nine years old, but his limbs were relatively thick, his ears were long and pointed, hanging down almost to the neck, his head was bare and hairless, the back of his head was high and bulging, and he was wearing clothes made of unknown materials, which Nangong had never seen before.

He...... She?...... Well, Nangong can't tell its gender.

Its chin is very pointed, the nose is exaggeratedly protruding, the whole head looks like the head of a praying mantis, and the most special thing is the eyes, which are a deep pale blue, almost one-third the size of the face, shining in the soft light of the bright fluorite, like a blue gem, which looks particularly wise.

It's just that this dwarf seems to be injured, and his eyes are a little dim, and there is a dull gray color in his dark blue eyes.

When the two of them entered the cave, the dwarf appeared very guarded, lying limply on the ground, but still barely making a defensive movement.

When the two of them walked in front of him, it saw Liang Zi who was taking the lead in front of him, obviously relaxed, lowered his hand, grinned, and said a few words to the two of them in his mouth.

Liang Zi spread his hands and said helplessly: "After class in the afternoon, I went out of the city to practice, and I accidentally found this injured dwarf unconscious under the waterfall outside the cave, so I moved it into the cave, but it's a pity...... You can see it, and I don't understand what it's saying. ”

"So the reason you brought me here is ......"

"Be a translator!"

Liang Zi's eyes sparkled, and he exuded excitement: "Among the people I know, you are the most knowledgeable and know the most language, maybe you can understand its words." ”

Nangong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "But the languages I have learned are all common on the mainland, this dwarf should be from the drifting island group, and I may not be able to understand its language." ”

"If you don't try it, how do you know?" Liang Zi said.

At this time, the dwarf saw that the two of them were whispering, and seemed to guess their difficulties, and said a few more words in his mouth, although Nangong still didn't understand, but he could hear that the pronunciation of the two times was very different, and it should not belong to the same language, so he shook his head lightly at the dwarf.

The dwarf seemed to understand, and muttered another language.

Nangong still shook his head.

The dwarf changed again, and Nangong still shook his head.

Ten minutes later, Nangong shook his head so much that he was about to break, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and secretly exclaimed in his heart, the dwarf race, which is known as the most intelligent in the world, really deserves its reputation. In just a few minutes, it has changed hundreds of languages, none of which are repeated, all of which Nangong has never heard of.

At this time, the dwarf said another word, and when Nangong heard it, his spirit suddenly perked up!

I finally understood!

This is the dialect of an ethnic minority in the west of the continent, Nangong went there with his father to buy animal skins when he was a child, and stayed for a while, so he can understand it, and he can barely speak some simple conversations.

It says, "Hello, human boy!"
