Chapter 208: Tree Elves
Xu Ruoping pointed at the place about ten steps behind Xu Hongbo, and said expressionlessly: "Ah, it's behind you." ”
"What?"
Xu Hongbo felt that his scalp was numb, and he was so frightened that he retreated again and again, flashed behind his sister like a loach, and then stretched out his neck to take a look.
Oh my god, isn't this the soaked salted dried fish?
I saw that the little thing that had been soaked in the water was bigger than before, like a thick branch, only the size of an adult's palm, short and short, with a round nose and big eyes, and was looking at them curiously. However, Xu Ruoping could clearly feel that the aura emanating from its eyes and body had no malice towards herself.
How could Xu Hongbo have such sharp facial features and six senses, he didn't care so much, looking at the other party's short and cowardly, he didn't seem to have any combat effectiveness, in order to show his hand in front of Xu Ruoping, he shouted, and said: "Okay, you little thing who doesn't know what to do, even your Uncle Xu dares to bully, see how I clean you up." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped in front of the "salted fish", and raised his foot to step on it.
"Don't. ”
Xu Ruoping looked at the other party and didn't look like a mountain spirit monster, and hurriedly said something to stop it, but it was too late.
With only a "bang", Xu Hongbo flew out like a leaf, drew a graceful arc in mid-air, and fell lightly.
This is clearly the method of "salted dried fish".
Hu Yihui and the others heard the sound, and they all rushed over in a few arrow steps.
Jun Wushang picked up Xu Hongbo, who was sitting on the ground, and asked while helping him pat the sand and mud on his body: "Xu Hongbo, what's the matter with you, did you fight with your sister?"
Xu Hongbo was shocked again and again, and scolded and said: "Your brain is in water, I have grown so big, and I am not a three-year-old child, why do you fight with my sister, I am fighting with ghosts, you don't believe it, you see, that guy is following me all the time." ”
Everyone looked ahead, and this time everyone could see clearly, it was a monster with a branch-like body and human-like limbs, and it was "squeaking" there not knowing what to say.
"It's a tree elf. Don't be afraid, tree spirits are transformed by trees that have been cultivated for a certain number of years, and they belong to a kind of low-level earth immortals, and they will not hurt people easily. Hu Yihui remembered the anecdotes of the Kunlun Divine Ruins he had seen before, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, frowning and explaining to everyone.
"It doesn't hurt, then why did Xu Hongbo suddenly flip a heel fight in the air?" asked Su Qiao timidly.
Hu Yihui looked at Xu Hongbo silently with an inquiring look: "Well, unless, they are attacked." ”
Xu Hongbo wanted to argue a few words just now, but when he heard Hu Yihui's next explanation, he closed his lips tightly, raised his head and looked around, deliberately avoiding Hu Yihui's eyes.
Xu Ruoping finally got angry: "It's not because he wanted to trample on someone to death just now." ”
Regarding Xu Hongbo's repeated troubles, Xu Ruoping finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Everyone looked at Xu Hongbo in unison, and several eyes stabbed at him like sharp swords.
This guy is always a bad thing, everyone can't wait to kick him out, no, he just beat away two god-level monsters, and before he had time to catch his breath, he gave everyone a whole earth immortal-level monster.
Xu Hongbo became the target of public criticism, extremely embarrassed but had nothing to say.
"Please don't blame him. ”
Just as everyone was accusing Xu Hongbo, what they never expected was that the tree elf suddenly spoke human language and spoke for him, "I just want to thank him for saving his life, and I am timid and afraid, so I have not dared to show up to thank him, so I had to follow him all the way, trying to find an opportunity to thank him in person, but I didn't dare to open my mouth out of fear, just •••••• Just now, I accidentally showed up, but he had a misunderstanding, and he ran over to attack me unexpectedly, and my body instinctively performed an unconditioned reflex, so I accidentally knocked him out. ”
The dryad tongue chattered with nervousness as he spoke, and as he spoke, he looked around warily, as if ready to flee at any moment.
"It's okay to be a tree elf, we are all cultivators, and we won't hurt you. Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, how about we not fight and not know each other, shake hands and make peace, and become friends?"
Xu Ruoping saw that the tree elf was not malicious, but on the contrary, it was very friendly, so she said with a pleasant face.
As soon as Xu Hongbo heard that he had not only made trouble this time, but had also made a great contribution, he immediately raised his toes: "Look, this is a misunderstanding, you are all so nervous that you seem to eat me, hum." ”
Then, he lowered his head and said to the tree elf: "Hehe, my body has just recovered, and my memory is not good, by the way, when did I save you?"
Xu Hongbo thought to himself: In the whole process, except for accidentally throwing you into the water, he really didn't do anything worthy of praise, and the purpose of throwing you into the water is not ulterior.
The tree elf looked at everyone's eyes one by one, and found that the other party did not have malicious intent, so he calmed down a little: "I am actually a birch tree spirit who has practiced for thousands of years, a hundred years ago with my brothers and sisters, I was taken away by the birds to do coolies, for a hundred years, my brothers and sisters were unbearable to abuse, and died one after another, only I was dried and made into a specimen for them to play with, and there was still a wisp of breath, I thought I would follow in the footsteps of my relatives, but I was rescued by this benevolent brother, put me in the water, and let my body be moistened and re-lived." ”
Sure enough, this time Xu Hongbo was crooked, of course, this secret Xu Ruoping and Xu Hongbo will never tell.
"Oh, I see. Are you okay now, if you're okay, you can go. ”
Xu Hongbo was timid in his heart, but he didn't want to be followed by such a salted fish all day long, no matter how strong its combat effectiveness was.
"Xu Hongbo, don't be rude. Hu Yihui reprimanded him in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter, Engong is straightforward," said the tree elf, "I will leave this place soon, but before I leave, as a token of gratitude, I will prepare a special gift, and I hope you don't dislike it." ”
As soon as the tree elf finished speaking, he stood back, and everyone's eyes crossed over it, only to find that all over the mountains, I don't know when it began, countless tree elves similar to it appeared, among which two were particularly tall, one held a tray with red fruits in each hand, and the other held several bunches of weeds shaped like sunflowers.
The tree elves in front whistled, and they respectfully walked over with the trays, but more than a dozen steps away from Hu Yihui and the others, they stood in place, refusing to move forward, as if they were afraid of something.
Hu Yihui looked at Xu Ruoping and understood the reason, everyone had extremely powerful magic weapons on their bodies, and they were murderous, and the tree elves were naturally timid, so they didn't dare to approach.
So he motioned to Xu Hongbo with his eyes to get it, but Xu Hongbo was worried in his heart: If these guys' gifts are fake, the kidnapping is real, and there is a surprise attack, then wouldn't my life be in danger, who wants to go to such a thing.
At the thought of this, his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, motionless.
However, Su Qiao and Jun Wushang volunteered, walked forward happily, and took the fruit bowl and the weed plate one by one.
This red fruit is called sand begonia, the taste is sour and sweet like plums, but there is no pit, the magic of this fruit is that if people eat it, it will automatically float up when it falls into the water, and will not be drowned; ”
The rescued tree spirit explained word by word.
After speaking, it crawled on the ground and kowtowed to Xu Hongbo three times, and then disappeared into the twilight with its companions silently.
Su Qiao heard that this fruit still had such a miraculous effect, so he walked a few steps quickly with a smile, brought the fruit to Hu Yihui, and showed a sweet smile: "Cousin, here you are." ”
Hu Yihui smiled and waved his hand: "You give it to Xu Hongbo, this is something that people want to honor him." ”
Su Qiao was not happy, and said in his heart: The fruit I took at the risk of my life was not for him.
But he said delicately: "There are more than a dozen here, three or two per person should always have them, such a good fruit is not to be eaten alone, well, cousin, you should eat it first." ”
Su Qiao's approach is not right, it is okay to be coquettish to his cousin when he was a child, but he will not be like this when he grows up, not to mention that there is Xu Ruoping next to him.
Sure enough, Xu Ruoping's vinegar jar was knocked over to the ground, and when Hu Yihui took the fruit plate over to her, she pushed it away and said with a straight face: "I'm full, I can't eat anything." ”
After saying that, he went into the tent and went to sleep.
Su Qiao showed a casual smile at the corner of his eyes, looked at Hu Yihui's face red and white for a while, and hurriedly said: "Cousin, if Sister Ruoping has no appetite, forget it, let's eat it ourselves, come, these two big ones will be given to you." ”
Su Qiao pretended to be confused, trying to show that an underage girl was ignorant of the world, and picked two big sand begonias and handed them to Hu Yihui's mouth.
Xu Hongbo really couldn't stand it, so he immediately ran over, snatched the fruit in Su Qiao's hand and Hu Yihui's fruit plate, grinned, and said, "Ah, I don't see if you all have no appetite, you don't eat me." ”
Hu Yihui was bent on finding the Kunlun Divine Ruins as soon as possible and tracing Xu Ruoping's roots, if he could meet a chance, maybe he would be able to get rid of the demonic energy on her body, so all along, he didn't care about the many intricate and subtle relationships between men and women, and he didn't understand that Xu Ruoping was jealous, seeing that the woman he loved wholeheartedly was inexplicably angry again and again, and he didn't feel a little lost, so he said: "Well, I don't have any appetite either, so you can eat it yourself." ”
Su Qiao turned around and glared at Xu Hongbo, his eyes were almost spewing fire, he stomped his feet, said nothing, and walked away.
