Chapter 023: So Invited
"This is the Tree of Life?" said Jesse, staring at the ancient tree with two large eyes.
Xilin was obviously also shocked by the tree of life in front of him, his mouth was slightly open, and he nodded slightly in a daze.
"That's right, this is the sacred tree of my Wood Elf Clan, the Tree of Life. Emer also watched with respect, for the sacred tree, it was the most important sacred object of the Wood Elf Clan.
"Elder, this tree of life is so full of branches that it doesn't seem to be degrading. Cillin asked.
"Leafy, little one, don't you think it's too simple to describe the tree of life in these four words, there are quite a few leafy trees in the elven tribe. ”
"Oh, please make it clear to the elders. Xilin looked at the Tree of Life a few more times, but still didn't see anything.
"You look closely at the leaves of the ancient trees. Emer said softly.
Hearing Emmer's words, both Cillin and Jesse focused on the leaves, just now they just looked at the trees and thick torsos, but as for the leaves, they didn't look closely.
"The leaves are black? no, they are dark. Jesse spoke.
Emer nodded on the side: "It's dark, but it can also be said to be black, I don't know what's going on, since the fountain of life here didn't overflow a year ago, this ancient tree has slowly become like this." ”
Emer said, his expression depressed.
"Elders don't have to worry, I will definitely find the fountain of life for the nobles to repay the elders for saving their lives. ”
Looking at Emer's expression, Cillin couldn't help but be moved in his heart and said out loud.
"Huh...... It's okay, the little guy works hard, I believe in that guy's vision, but I also believe in my own vision, you work hard, I will let Ero and Wei'er assist you on the side, although their magic cultivation is not too high, but there is still no problem in terms of martial arts. Emer smiled and said, although Cillin had agreed, but what he said just now was obviously more like a reassuring pill.
"Thank you, Elder. Cillin bent down and bowed.
"It's not early, you go back and rest, I'm embarrassed to disturb the old man for so long, hehehe......"
"Well, it's okay, I want to leave for Wiesna early tomorrow morning, I wonder what the elders think?" said Silin, as they walked out.
"Tomorrow? You've just arrived today, but you haven't looked around yet. Emer spoke.
"To tell you the truth, the two of us are also worried about Wiesner, the empire is an eventful time now, and I really don't want to make any trouble. Xilin said curtly.
"Oh, if that's the case, you might as well go back sooner. Emer stroked his beard, nodded, and said, "By the way, as long as there are nine drops of the Fountain of Life, it will be connected to the Fountain of Life, and the rest will be regarded as my reward for you." ”
Hearing Emer's words, Xilin's heart suddenly relaxed, he was about to ask about this, if he had to keep it, what was the difference between it and guarding Baoshan and not being able to spend it.
"Elder, there's one more thing I don't know whether to talk about. ”
"When did the little guy learn to behave like this, it was straightforward. ”
"Then, please forgive the boy for being rude," Xilin said, "The boy has always had a question, why did he have a feeling of gloom when he saw the Tree of Life just now, I don't know if the elder knows what is going on?"
"Well, you feel it too?" Emer's face was very ugly, "I don't know why for this matter, for the degradation of the tree of life, to be honest, nothing like this has happened for tens of thousands of years, this time I encountered it, alas, ......"
As he spoke, Emer sighed, something that he hadn't encountered for tens of thousands of years had happened to him, and it was indeed providential.
Since Emer didn't know what the reason was, it was hard to mention it again, and after a while, they arrived at their quarters, and Emer arranged a good place for the two, opposite the treehouse was the river, and it was a pleasure to enjoy the moonlight before going to bed at night.
Early the next morning, Emer arranged for food to be delivered to their room, and then Silin stayed for a long time, until noon, when lunch was over, and the two of them took their leave, of course, Eero and Vail also walked with them.
"I don't know what happened to Nabad's son, and what Balk thinks, that's the main thing. Looking at the town of Onas in the distance, Sirin spoke.
The faces of several people were very heavy, but Wei'er was not at all, she was as happy as a mouse at this time, indeed, although the elves had enough time, it was strange to stay in the elf tribe all the time and not suffocate to death, especially for an elf like Wei'er who naturally likes to travel around, it is even more unbearable.
"I hope that Balk can see the shape clearly. There was no confidence in Ero's words.
"A few people, please stay, please ask which one is Lord Xilin. ”
As expected, a few people walked not far again, and there was a person in front of them blocking the way.
"I'm just, what's the matter?" sat on his horse, not at all intent on dismounting.
The man was not angry, "Lord Xilin, my master is invited." ”
"What master, we have to go over, and if we don't get out of the way, we will rush over. ”
Before Xilin could speak, an angry voice came from the side, Wei'er chick was happy, but she didn't expect someone to dare to disturb her interest, she was not so good-tempered, and said.
The man in the middle of the road was waiting for Xilin's reply, but he didn't expect someone next to him to angrily tell him to get out of the way, and he just wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth, and he didn't spit out a word, the pointed ears were the sign of the elves, and he didn't have the confidence to deal with an elven archer alone.
After being told by Wei'er, the man didn't answer, just stared at Xilin on the horse in front of him.
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, let's go and see, there are a few people like him, but he can't stop the other party from coming prepared, he doesn't think that there is a person here in front of him, and he doesn't know how many of Balk's subordinates are in front of him.
"Okay, I'll go with you, but please let my friends go first. Cillin spoke.
"Xilin!"
"Your Excellency!"
Jesse and Gal shouted at the same time.
"I admire the courage of my lords, but none of them can get by, so please come with me to meet my master." There was a disgusting smile on the man's face, this was Vier's idea, it was disgusting indeed.
"Your Excellency, don't deceive people too much!" Xilin's face slowly became gloomy, Xilin is good-tempered, but that is to friends, to brothers, of course, this does not mean that Xilin will not be angry!
"Huh...... I'm just an errand runner, why should adults be difficult for villains, I just want to complete the tasks assigned by the master, and for the rest, it's not something I should consider. ”
"Xilin, don't talk nonsense with him, I see that we rush straight over, I don't believe they can stop a few of us. ”
"That's right, my lord! It's better to fight directly than to die!"
"Don't say any more, let's go, let's go meet the so-called ogre, and see if he really eats human flesh and drinks human blood!"
"Hmph......" Ero snorted coldly, "Ogre Balk, but I've heard of his name for a long time, and I can finally see it today!"
"Lead the way!" said Cillin.
"Please come with me, sir. The man whistled, and a horse sprang out of the woods by the roadside, and the man leaped lightly, and mounted his horse, and rode forward.
