Redeem The Villain [Quick Travel] Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Cabin “Why did you let her touch you?”

Lu Qinian took a big breath. The air at the seaside had a faint smell of sea, but it was a smell that made him miss it very much.He stepped on the fine sand under his feet, which was heated by the sun and burned his feet.

It was hot, so hot. Lu Qinian stomped around excitedly, wishing he could cry. He finally walked out of the cold and biting seabed.

Lyle watched the short-haired elf running excitedly on the beach and rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Lu Qinian picked up some good-quality shells at the beach and then officially set out on the road.

After leaving the beach, there was a dense forest all the way. When Lyle came, he had cleared the branches, weeds and weeds on the road, which was much easier than walking straight through the forest.

The only trouble was that there were a lot of wild beasts in the forest. Late at night on the fifth day of the journey, about one meter above the ground, there was a simple tree house erected among the branches. It was a temporary tree house that Lyle had specially cut down a few days ago.

Walking inside the treehouse, you can still feel the slight trembling of the treehouse. The simply built treehouse is not considered safe, but it can avoid many dangers late at night.

That night, the elf leader was sleeping in the middle, with Lyle and Lu Qinian on both sides. While they were sleeping soundly in the cozy tree house, bursts of rustling sounds suddenly came from the sound.

Lyle woke up instantly. He moved his body slightly and completely exposed his pair of elf ears to listen carefully to what was going on outside.

The sound will ring for a while from time to time.

Not long after, the rustling sound got closer and closer, until the brown bear slapped the tree house hard. Lyle picked up his bow and arrow and rushed out, attracting the brown bear away from the tree house.

“Whoosh——”

He pulled the bow in his hand, and the arrow whistled like the wind. “Puff–” it pierced the brown bear’s eyes, followed by bursts of wailing.

The tree house shook, accompanied by the roar of beasts. The moment Lyle rushed out, Lu Qinian quickly helped the patriarch up: “Grandpa, are you okay?”

The elf leader had a lot of experience and waved his hand indifferently: “It’s okay. Although this tree house is simple, it is extremely stable.”

Indeed, Lu Qinian had just climbed the tree house and it fell to the ground, but now he felt that the tree house had stabilized and was no longer shaking.

“Grandpa, you rest here while I go check on Lyle.” With that said, Lu Qinian poked his head out of the tree house.

The moonlight shines on the forest, illuminating the entire forest through the gaps between the trees.

Lyle stood there with a cold expression and blood all over his body. The brown bear a few meters in front of him had dozens of sharp arrows stuck in it.

“Bang——”

The brown bear hit the ground hard, and its limbs twitched as if it was trying to get up. It didn’t take long for it to stabilize again, and it made no more noise.

Lyle slowly turned his gaze focused on the brown bear behind him and asked, “Is the clan leader okay?”

“Nothing.”

The next morning, several people had a hearty meal and continued on their way.

From that day on, I didn’t encounter anything else. The journey went smoothly, and in the early morning of the 16th day, I finally arrived within the range of the elves.

The elves have a huge number of people, and the entire group spreads out in a large circle around the sacred tree in the center, almost occupying the entire mountain.

“Chief, you are back!” An elf wearing the same cloth armor as Lyle came out of the forest. When he looked at Lu Qinian again, he shouted in surprise: “Who are you? Wait, you can’t be Thor! Where’s your hair!”

Lu Qinian smiled and said, “It’s not convenient so I cut it off.”

The elves have no clan rules restricting hair, but most elves prefer long hair.

Thinking of what the deer man said when he came, Phil gave him a pitiful look, and the excitement in his mouth faded instantly: “That’s right… It’ll be good if you come back. Milly will be very happy to know that you are back.”

Lyle’s face instantly darkened. Ever since he was a child, whenever he heard that his sister liked the elf beside him, his face would suddenly turn ugly.

Lyle kept scanning Lu Qinian and the elf with almost cold eyes: “Phil, don’t talk nonsense, Milly won’t miss him.”

Phil responded: “Brother Lyle, you forgot that before leaving, Milly said that if you don’t bring Thor back to the clan, you won’t be able to return to the tree house. You lost your temper at that time.”

No wonder Lyle looked like that when he saw him, Lu Qinian curled his lips.

“! You…” Lyle was extremely angry.

“Okay, let’s go back first.” The Elf leader interrupted them, fearing that there would be a fight. He was already tired after traveling for a month at such an old age, and now he had no patience.

Lu Qinian was quietly in front of the quail. He would leave when the patriarch left and stop when the patriarch stopped.

As for Milly or Mi Li, he didn’t know.

Lyle followed behind, almost breaking the bow in his hand in anger.

Gradually going deeper, I finally see the original appearance of the entire Elf clan. There is a wooden house erected on each thick tree. Some are one-story buildings with small stairs, some are two-story buildings with two floors of stairs, and even rotating or direct slides. The similarity is that there are many bright and dazzling flowers on each wooden house.

What surprised Lu Qinian was not the wooden houses, but the colorful flowers in bud that were planted on both sides of the winding road. The faint floral fragrance attracted countless butterflies and bees.

A woman in a two-story building pushed open the small window of the treehouse. The moment the sun shone brightly, her blond hair attracted Lu Qinian’s attention. In less than a second, the woman exclaimed and shouted: “The patriarch is back! The patriarch is back!”

“Really!”

“I’m really back!”

“Who is that elf with short hair?”

“It seems… Thor? The patriarch really brought him back when he went to the bottom of the sea this time.”

“Even if Sol looks good with long hair, why is he so handsome with short hair?”

For a time, the entire elves were in a state of excitement.

After all the greetings were over, the Elf Chief said to several people: “Everyone, please go back and rest, and attend the Holy Meeting on time tomorrow morning.”

The second half of the sentence was addressed to Lu Qinian, and the short-haired elf nodded in agreement.

The original memory of the second half of the Holy Meeting was incomplete. When Lu Qinian returned to the tree house according to his memory, he happened to hear a mother explaining the Holy Meeting to her young son. He listened secretly for a long time.

A holy meeting can also be called a day of prayer.

It is held every month, and the last time it was held was the day after Luli came.

In the early morning, all the elves read prayers under the sacred tree to pray for the elves.In the afternoon, all women of the elves will weave garlands with their own hands, which can be given to their favorite elves, whether they are lovers, relatives, or friends.At dusk, it is a carnival night for all the young elves, with bonfires, singing, and dancing until the end of the holy meeting in the early morning.

In the original memory, Thor only participated in the night holy meeting when he was young, and since then he has spent time in the tree house.

The Holy Meeting in the early morning is the most important and everyone must attend, while the Holy Meeting at night is more like entertainment for young elves and is not important.

Lu Qinian had an accurate estimate in his mind. When he came to this world, he could only play once at the bottom of the sea. It happened that tomorrow was the elf clan’s holy meeting, so he must have had enough fun.

Thor’s treehouse is not far from the holy tree. Due to his aloof temperament, there are very few elves sitting next to him. There are only a few elves around him, and he only has three treehouses, including the patriarch’s grandfather.

When the elves reach the age of ten, their families will find a suitable location for their children to build a tree house of their own. When Thor lost his parents when he was young, he did not like to communicate with others.The tree house that Sol lives in now was built by the patriarch and his uncle of the same clan when he was ten years old. It is a one-story wooden house.

Not long after moving in, the patriarch was no longer suitable for living on the second floor, so he simply moved to the first floor next to Sol. Not long after, almost all the noisy elves changed places.

It’s said that it’s a change of place, but it’s just a road away.

As a young man, Sol always thought that he was annoying, and he was even less talkative, and his temper gradually became more and more indifferent.

In Lu Qinian’s view, this is because the young elves would not stay quiet late at night, but instead made people more troublesome, and the clan leader was too old to bear the trouble, so they changed their addresses one after another.

When Lu Qinian stepped on the wooden stairs, he was afraid that the board would break and fall, but fortunately he climbed up the stairs safely.The area of ​​the one-story wooden house is very small. In front of the door is a fairly empty front hall with some simple furniture and daily items. About ten meters away is a wooden door. When the door is opened, there is a wooden bed and a wooden cabinet. There is nothing on the bed.

Within a few months, the uninhabited wooden house was filled with dust.Just taking a few steps raised a cloud of dust in the room. Lu Qinian first opened the wooden cabinet next to the bed and took a look, and breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure there was a quilt.

Then he started cleaning. When he was so tired that he couldn’t straighten up, the wooden house was completely clean, and the sky outside the window became dark.

The setting sun and sunset are intoxicating.

Lu Qinian sat on the wicker chair by the window and looked at the entire flaming clouds. This was a scenery that did not exist under the sea. It was something he could see almost every day in his previous life, but now it had become an extravagant beauty.

Lu Qinian sighed with emotion: “Xiaojiu, what if the task cannot be completed?”

[If you fail to complete the task, you will die.】009 through the electronic screen.

The elf’s blond hair turned orange in the sunset, and he lay lazily in the wicker chair and admired the scenery.

“…” Although Lu Qinian knew better, such a direct answer still ruined his good mood.

His stomach growled, Lu Qinian stood up, opened the door, and left the tree house.

“Are you well rested?!”

Hearing this, Lu Qinian looked up.

The elf’s golden hair was braided into a braid and fell down on his chest from one side. There were a few strands of hair that framed his face were pinned behind the long elf ears, and his bright green eyes blinked at him.

Lu Qinian thought of her in his memory.

It’s Millie, Lyle’s sister.

“I just finished cleaning the cabin and want to go out to find something to eat.” Lu Qinian walked down the stairs.

“Oh, that’s right. Your house hasn’t been lived in for a few months. It must be very dirty. I should have come over earlier to help you. It must be very tiring to clean up such a big wooden house by yourself.” Milly smiled sweetly.

Lu Qinian grinned. The elf in front of him didn’t look right. He was about to speak, but then there was a cold feeling behind him.

Lu Qinian turned around sharply, but behind him there was only the wooden house that had just been cleaned, and the rest was completely clean. The door of the wooden house had just been closed, and he knew very well what was inside.

The elf’s movement alerted Milly, who was waiting for a reply. Milly looked towards Lu Qinian’s gaze and wondered, “What are you looking at?”

There is obviously nothing.

The coolness had long since faded, but the feeling was so familiar that he almost suspected that he was still at the bottom of the sea.

I don’t know how Alessi is doing now. If the herbal medicine doesn’t work and there is no affinity, the headache will definitely recur.

Forget it, who told him not to listen to me.

“It’s okay, I made a mistake.” He looked indifferent, and asked with a smile the next second: “Milly, do you know whose family has more food? I exchanged things from the bottom of the sea with them. You also know that I just returned to my tribe and don’t have time to go hunting. Tomorrow is another day of prayer…”

Something from the bottom of the sea!Millie’s eyes twinkled.

In the past, the mermaid tribe would also exchange exquisite items with tribes on land, but the elves had never participated, so the entire elves might not be able to find a few items from the seabed.

If she had something from the bottom of the sea, even just a few small objects, Antiy and Laya would be jealous of her!

The elf would not hide his expression, so Lu Qinian pretended not to notice the excitement of the elf next to him, and quietly waited for the other party to speak.

Milly quickly took two steps forward and said happily: “I have food, what do you want? Fruit? Meat? Or wheat and rice?”

Without waiting for his answer, Milly directly reached out to grab Lu Qinian’s wrist and dragged him to another wooden house. For fear of the elves and others, she kept explaining: “When Lyle left last month, he hunted a lot of prey. I made a lot of dried meat. In another month, the rice grown by the elves will mature. If you want, just come to my house to pick out what you want. Although other people’s homes will have fresh meat, it will go bad in one day, so dried meat is more convenient.”

Lu Qinian was startled by the elf’s movements and subconsciously wanted to break away.

In an instant, the cold, sticky and terrifying aura climbed up his back again, and a pair of cold hands slowly dragged his face, as if forcing him to say something.

Lu Qinian thought in a daze that it was the black-tailed mermaid that shouldn’t be here, staring at him angrily, dissatisfied and sinisterly.

The elf subconsciously shook his body and quickly broke free from the restraints on his wrists.

Milly’s happiness was interrupted. She curled her lips and reluctantly let go of her hand and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I’m not used to it.” Lu Qinian shuddered.

The cold feeling did not disappear, but worsened.

Compared to the moment when he thought it was an illusion, this time it was truly confirmed.

Alessi was staring at him.

This feeling can only be attributed to Alessi.

But Alessi should be at the bottom of the sea. Does he have enemies in the elves?No, if he is an enemy, he should not only appear when he is talking to Milly.

Lu Qinian looked around and frowned slightly. Lyle was not here. Who was that…

Only then did Milly remember what Thor’s temper was like in the past. The elf had changed a lot after not seeing her for a few months. He not only smiled at her several times, but also let her grab his wrist and take a few steps.

The elf in front of her not only had her hair cut short, but also kept looking away absentmindedly, as if she was afraid of something. Now Milly believed even more what the tribesmen said, that Thor was really being treated inhumanely at the bottom of the sea.

Seeing the frightened elf, Milly looked at him with pity: “Let’s go, I have a lot of food at home.”

The cold feeling gradually disappeared, and Lu Qinian responded tiredly.

“Okay.”

Milly’s tree house is separated by two roads from Lu Qinian’s first floor. It is a two-story building. The wooden boards are exquisitely made and polished very clean. The outside of the wooden house is also hung with bright flowers and colorful ornaments. Wall-climbing vines are planted on the handrails of the stairs. Green vines wrap around the handrails, which looks very beautiful.

Compared with Lu Qinian’s one-story building, the mansion in front of him looked like a real mansion.

“Come in.” Milly walked upstairs and opened the door.

Lu Qinian followed behind, and then kept his eyes closed throughout the whole process. This was the girl’s home anyway, and the reason why he came in was because the road was not suitable for trading.

The door was closed tightly, and Milly said quickly: “Quickly show me what you are talking about.”

Lu Qinian took out a small handful of pearls, a bunch of bright red coral, and several shells from his small bag and placed them on the table.

The red coral was something he randomly picked out on the road before leaving the seabed. Its quality and appearance were more than a little worse than the blue coral that Xiao Guo had been searching for for a long time. It was better than the elves who didn’t have it. It was enough to make a deal.

“Wow!” Milly picked up the red coral in wonder.

Seeing that the elf was only interested in coral, Lu Qinian said: “Lyle went to the bottom of the sea and must have brought you many items. If you don’t need any other trouble, ask other people for me.”

Milly put down the coral, then held up the pearls, and looked at them one by one in the sunlight. After hearing the elf’s words, she quickly complained: “Him? I asked him to help me bring the coral bush, but he said he couldn’t let it go. I asked him to help me bring the pearls, but he said he wouldn’t look for them. I asked him to trade with mermaids, but he said he hates mermaids and doesn’t want to talk to mermaids.”

The more Milly spoke, the angrier she became. Lu Qinian touched his nose and said nothing. He held a deep moment of silence for Lyle’s future emotions in his heart.

“I want these, whatever you want.” Milly played with the coral without raising her head.

“I need three days of rice and some dried meat.” He will return to the bottom of the sea in a few days, and there will be more than he can eat.

“Ah? That’s all you need?” Milly wondered.

Lu Qinian: “Well, a little is enough. These things are very common at the bottom of the sea.”

“Okay.” Milly stood up and walked into the house. After a while, she took out the items the elf needed, including an extra small bag: “This contains sweet fruits. I just picked them at noon today and gave them to you.”

Lu Qinian didn’t hesitate, said thank you and turned to leave the tree house.

The moment he opened the door, Lu Qinian subconsciously turned his head. An arrow passed through his ear and almost shot through his head.

“Why are you?” Lyle put away his bow and arrows in surprise.

The tips of Lu Qinian’s ears stung. He raised his hand and touched it but found no blood. Then he said, “I’m here to make a deal with Milly.”

Hearing the sound, Milly came out and glared at her brother: “Thor gave me coral in exchange for two days of food. The clan does not allow the use of weapons. The clan leader knows that he will definitely punish you.”

When Lyle was under the tree, he saw the back of a strange elf by the window. He thought it was some malicious trash doing something to his sister. He didn’t notice the special short hair at all. He was dizzy for a moment and rushed up, drew his bow and shot an arrow.

Lyle was well aware of the misunderstanding and apologized profusely and explained the whole story clearly.

Lu Qinian carried the food back to his wooden house. He quickly cooked the ingredients and ate them all. When he looked up again, the window was already dark, and he could faintly hear the young elves playing together in the distance.

He was very tired, so he simply cleaned up and then lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Soon the entire elves were completely quiet, and countless fireflies were trying to light up the night.

“Bang——”

A dark shadow rolled in from the window.

“Da”

“Da”

The footsteps were soft and steady, gradually approaching the unsuspecting elf.

The dark pupils outline the figure of the elf in the dark night.

After a while, a cold voice sounded in the wooden house.

“Why did you let her touch you?”

The author has something to say:

———————–

Lyle’s sister changed her name. When I was typing, I suddenly found that the previous name was exactly the same as Alessi (autistic in place). I swear I didn’t realize this problem before, so I changed it overnight.

I really couldn’t think of what to write in the title, so I decided to replace the first part with “World” from now on!Hehe

Usually, the update is probably to catch bugs. I originally planned to post this chapter at night, but after thinking about it, I decided to post it now. I will update it at night in the future.
