Redeem The Villain [Quick Travel] Chapter 20
byChapter 20 The bed is small “Sleep together.”
1.
The twilight was completely blurred, and the piled sunset glow in the sky gradually faded. Several cheers came from the bonfire feast not far away. It turned out that the bonfire was lit, and the elves gathered together and laughed happily.
Lu Qinian’s chest felt tight, and Alexi’s eyes were too hot as she stared at him intently.
In the past, he only wanted to complete the mission quickly and return to his familiar home. The unpredictable Alesh has always been the target of missions full of dangers for him.
At this moment, he suddenly came up with an idea to completely change Alessi’s fate. It had nothing to do with the mission, but because he selfishly didn’t want the mermaid’s ending to be so tragic.
He didn’t want Alessi to die.
“Go, let’s go watch the bonfire.”
The night is low and the stars are shining.
The bonfire was roaring and the flames flickered.
The elves held hands, danced cheerfully around the bonfire, and sang melodious songs.
When Lu Qinian walked over, the happily dancing elves stopped. They kept looking at him and Alessi with curious and timid eyes.
They all knew who the person next to Thor was. Even though Alesh was wearing cloth armor unique to the elves, his unique black curly hair was a color that no one in the clan had ever seen before.
While they were scared, they also found it novel. Blond hair might be very popular among other ethnic groups, but among the elves, it was already so common that they were tired of seeing it.
Phil walked towards them slowly, his eyes flickering between the two of them. Finally he looked at Lu Qinian and asked with a smile: “Would you like to join us?” After a pause for a few seconds, he added: “It’s very lively.”
Lu Qinian did not respond in a hurry, and turned slightly sideways to look at Alessi.
Is he waiting for my answer?Alessi had mixed feelings.
He thought the elf would agree without hesitation.
The bonfire burned fiercely, the wood made crackling sounds, and the flames of the bonfire lit up the entire elves. Alessi could feel the heat of the blazing fire even while standing here.
He is a mermaid, and mermaids like water and coolness. It is too hot here for him.But it was he who proposed to participate in the bonfire feast. Only when he actually walked into the bonfire did Alessi realize that the difference between the mermaids and the elves was not just racial differences, but the bigger problem was the strange living environment.
Where should two people live together?
Lu Qinian saw his concerns, raised the corners of his mouth, smiled softly, and said softly: “We’ll just play for a while. If you feel uncomfortable, we’ll go back.”
“Yeah.” Alessi was no longer confused.
Even if it’s different, so what.
Lu Qinian put one hand on the palm of the elf beside him without tightening it, and stretched out the other hand in front of Aleixi, his green eyes flashed: “Hold me.”
[Task progress decreased by -5%, current progress is 34%]
Alexi’s good mood just now darkened instantly, and the hands held by Lu Qinian and other elves became particularly dazzling in his eyes.
He wanted to cut off the elf’s hand, Alesh said silently in his heart.
Lu Qinian grinned, helpless: “Aleixi, it’s okay, just once.”
Even though he had done nothing, the progress of the task dropped rapidly. Lu Qinian followed Alessi’s gaze and finally landed on the palms of his and the elf’s hands.
No way…
Alessi: “…” Angry!
The mermaid finally stretched out her hand slowly. There were several small wounds on the wheat-colored palm. After a few seconds, the wheat-colored palm connected with the white and slender hand.
Lu Qinian’s bad thoughts suddenly arose in his heart. The moment he tightened his grip, his fingers suddenly opened and inserted into Alessi’s fingers.
“!!!”
The mermaid’s eyes instantly stared at the boss.
Fingers intertwined.
The night among the elves was a bit cold, and the bonfire exuded scalding heat, but Alessi’s attention was entirely focused on the palms intertwined with the elves’ fingers. The touch of his hands was soft and warm.
This is nothing like the feeling of breaking off your palm before.
Before he could react, his other hand had been grabbed by an unknown elf. Perhaps the elf was afraid of him, so it only twisted Alessi’s cuff with two fingers and did not dare to make any other movements.
The tips of the mermaid’s ears were red, but nothing could be seen under the firelight. Only Lu Qinian, who was closest to him, could see it most clearly.
So red.
Lu Qinian laughed subconsciously, and the next second he was glared at by the merman beside him.
Alessi’s face turned even redder due to the bonfire.
Lu Qinian took back his previous words. He thought Alessi was extremely cute.
Who would have thought that the violent villain Mermaid would turn out to be an innocent fish whose face would turn red when teased.
“Are you feeling uncomfortable?” Lu Qinian approached him.
Alessi shook his head: “No.”
The elf felt relieved.
They danced cheerfully around the bonfire and sang joyful songs.
Until it was over, Lu Qinian pulled Alessi to another open grassland, letting him lie down on the grass and watching the stars twinkling in the sky.
Alessi sat next to him and slowly raised his head. This was a scene that never existed under the sea. Only when he came to land did he realize that he actually liked the sky.
There was a thin layer of sweat on Lu Qinian’s body, and his cloth armor had been soaked through at some point. The wetness stuck to his body and was very uncomfortable. He was still breathing heavily, which made Alessi frequently move his eyes towards him.
Alessi has been rolling around in corpses since he was a child. In the Black Reef Area, force has always been the highest value. Who cares if you are a cub or not, cowardice will only lead to being devoured, so his physical strength is very good. Even if he is not used to the hot campfire, his body is still dry without a drop of sweat.
Alessi’s gaze was not obscured at all. After adjusting his breathing, Lu Qinian asked, “Would you like to try the elven fruit wine?”
Alexi was silent and looked at him with a meaningful look in his eyes.
“Okay.”
After hearing this, Lu Qinian stood up and walked to the table. He did not immediately pick up the wine glass filled with fruit wine. Instead, he went around and picked up two clean dinner plates, filled them with some food, and finally returned to the grassland with two glasses of fruit wine.
“The alcohol content of the elves is very high, so don’t drink too much.” Lu Qinian put the fruit wine next to him.
Alai lowered his eyes and stared for a while. The two glasses of fruit wine reflected the stars in them under the illumination of the moonlight.
He couldn’t drink wine, not even when he was young. After drinking it several times, the wine tasted bitter.But he did not refuse Lu Qinian and started eating the dinner that the elf had brought back.
“This is a sweet fruit unique to the elves. It tastes sweet and delicious…” The elf introduced everything on the plate while eating.
“Yeah.”
“Is it sweet?”
“Sweet.”
“This is hare meat…”
“It’s delicious.”
Alessi responded from time to time.
The bonfire burned out, the wood burned red, and the light behind the two gradually dimmed.
Lu Qinian raised the wine glass in his hand, approached Alessi, tilted the glass and touched it lightly.
“Dang Cang——”
“Cheers.” A refreshing voice sounded.
Alai hoped for a long time, and murmured softly when the elf took a sip of wine: “Cheers.”
He took a big sip, and the sweet and sour fruit wine slid over the tip of his tongue, and the wine flowed smoothly into the bottom of his stomach. The fruit wine was high in concentration but not overpowering in taste. After drinking it, his stomach felt warm and comfortable.
This is not the taste of wine in his impression. This one is very sweet and delicious.
Alessi looked down at the wine glass in his hand, and he saw his face in the wine.
After a while, the mermaid narrowed her eyes and took another sip.
He likes the taste.
In a short while, he drank all the glass of fruit wine.
“Delicious.”
The voice was thin and soft, and it was hard to hear it clearly.
“Huh? What did you say?” Lu Qinian turned his head and was shocked. He jumped up and stood up quickly: “You’ve finished drinking?!”
“Yeah.” Alexi’s eyes were blank, and he turned the glass upside down and shook it, as if to say: Look, I’m really drunk.
“How do you feel? Are you dizzy?” Lu Qinian quickly stepped forward and snatched the empty wine glass from the mermaid’s hand.
“I’m not dizzy, it’s okay.” Alessi’s voice was calm, but his eyes were a little slow.
He was drunk. Lu Qinian pinched his eyebrows and said, “You are not a good drinker at the banquet.”
Alessi followed the movements of the elf and turned his head to look. His eyes were calm and calm as he watched the elf in front of him change from one to two, then to three, then split into four after a while, and now there were five elves surrounding him. The elf’s mouth was opening and closing, not knowing what to say.
Banquet?
It was such a familiar word. He moved the corner of his mouth for a moment and thought of something: “That’s a lie… what he drank was not wine, but…”
He couldn’t tell because he couldn’t remember what it was.
“I’m really drunk.” Lu Qinian accepted his fate. When he stood up, he held the person firmly in his arms and walked towards the wooden house with steady steps.
Alessi immediately said with a straight face: “I’m not drunk.”
“Well, I’m not drunk.”
“Sweet, not intoxicating.”
“Well, I’m not drunk, so be good.” Lu Qinian had no intention of dealing with a drunkard and responded perfunctorily along the way.
I never expected that Alessi would look like this after being drunk. I wonder if the king of a country would be angry and regretful when he wakes up.
Alexi, who didn’t want to return to the wooden house, was really annoying. He once tortured the temperless Lu Qinian until his nerves were haggard, and the mermaid finally let him go to sleep.
“Hey…” He sighed meaningfully, turned over and fell asleep.
He would never let Alessi touch a drop of wine again in his life.Absolutely!
Early the next morning, Alessi stood at the door of the wooden house, staring at the hill-like wreath on the ground with a gloomy face.
“Take care of it all.”
“Yes.”
When Lu Qinian woke up, the bed beside him was empty. He touched it with his palms and found that there was no cold patch on the quilt.
Alessi has been gone for a long time.
“Running so fast.” The elf murmured softly, got up, cooked and had a simple meal.
“Knock, knock—” The wooden door was knocked.
If Alessi comes back, that guy will never knock on the door.
Lu Qinian stood up and opened the door in front of him, and said in shock: “Lyle?”
Hearing the sound, Lyle nodded. The cloth armor he was wearing was much more complicated than usual. He also held a bow in his hand and a quiver on his back. At a glance, he saw that there were about dozens of arrows inside, and Lu Qinian had an accurate guess.
The next second——
Lyle said: “Let’s go hunting together?”
Sure enough, it was exactly what Lu Qinian was thinking. Lyle was dressed as a hunter, but he was confused. The elf in front of him used to hate Thor the most, but today he took the initiative to invite him.
The family was about to run out of food, so Lu Qinian agreed without much thought.
By the way, we can see where Alessi went.
Well, just by the way.
“The clan will gather in 10 minutes. I have to go find Phil.” Lyle walked down the stairs.
Lu Qinian knew that there was strength in numbers, so he responded and went back to the cabin to change clothes.
Sol, who lives in the Elf Tribe, also has the ability to hunt, but he used to be a loner. Lu Qinian had no hunting experience and could not ensure his own safety by relying on his memory.
It didn’t take long to change clothes, but Sol’s cabin was too far away from the clan gate, so he ran all the way there and used up the time. When he arrived at the clan gate, everyone was already gathered and waiting for him.
Lu Qinian gasped and said, “Sorry, I’m late.”
Lyle knew that Sol’s wooden house was far away from the clan gate. Combined with Sol’s panting appearance, it was clear at a glance that the elf was running over and changing clothes very quickly. It did not take too long. He glanced at Lu Qinian in surprise and even said in a much better tone: “Time is not fixed, it doesn’t matter if you slow down.”
Phil also smiled: “Yes, I just walked to the door.”
Phil’s wooden house is right at the gate of the clan. As an archer, he is the elf who patrols the mountains the most among the elves.
Several other people also responded one after another.After Lyle asked Lu Qinian, he would be able to call out everyone along the way, so he didn’t waste much time.
“Okay, let’s go.” Lyle was the first to step towards the forest.
2.
The uninhabited forest is overgrown with weeds, vines grow haphazardly, tall and confusing trees block most of the light, and there are some abyss and deep valleys. It all depends on luck along the way. You may miss the mark and fall to the bottom of the valley.
Lu Qinian was arranged to walk in the middle of the team. He had not participated in hunting for half a year. The most important thing for a team was to lead and back up the team. Several people were afraid that if he did not take action in time when the beast appeared, the entire team would be hit hard if an accident occurred.
The first few people were afraid that the elves in front of them would become cold-faced and angry.Unexpectedly, the short-haired elf actually agreed with a smile, which also made them look at him a few more times, and they couldn’t help but pay more attention to him along the way.
She said it as if she was afraid that he would hold him back.
However, Lu Qinian didn’t care. He accepted this special “care” with peace of mind. After all, he really didn’t know how to hunt and there was no need to use his life to show off.
Phil was a restless person, and he didn’t meet any prey along the way. His eyes fell on the elf in front of him, and his eyes flashed.
He took a few quick steps to close the distance between him and Lu Qinian, and then walked side by side: “I heard that Antiy personally knitted a garland for you yesterday.”
Anti?Lu Qinian didn’t know him, but he had some impressions about the wreath. He did meet an elf while picking colorful flowers.
“Maybe so.”
Phil didn’t pay attention to the uncertainty in his tone, but asked: “Why didn’t you agree to her?”
Lu Qinian wondered: “Why do you agree?”
Phil should have replied as a matter of course: “She likes you, so you should agree, right?”
What’s the point?
The corner of Lu Qinian’s mouth twitched. When he was not sure how to respond, he suddenly remembered what he heard when he came out of the patriarch’s house yesterday. If the memory was correct, the elf who gave Phil the wreath should be named Wen Duo.
The short-haired elf chuckled and said, “Then you accepted the wreath given by Wen Duo just because she likes you?”
“Of course not!” Phil denied urgently: “I accepted the garland because I like Wen Duo.”
Phil was also popular in the clan. After getting together with Wen Duo, they often quarreled because other elves looked at him too much. He was even more exhausted physically and mentally after coaxing him. He quickly said: “I came out today to hunt a deer with my own hands. I want to give it to her with my own hands. She likes clothes made of deer skin.”
“Oh, I thought you accepted the wreath just because she liked you, so you agreed.” Lu Qinian pretended to be profound and shook his head: “It seems that is not the case.”
Lyle heard the conversation between the two and secretly glared at Lu Qinian.
Lu Qinian shrugged, was I right?
Phil instantly realized something was wrong. If Wen Duo heard this, he would definitely misunderstand. There were quite a few elves who gave him wreaths on the day of the holy meeting, but he happily agreed because he liked Wen Duo. The other elves firmly refused.
His face turned pale, and he stumbled to explain: “I, what I just said is wrong. You really can’t just accept an elf you don’t like, only if you like each other.”
After saying that, he fell silent as if he had learned a lesson.
The most cheerful people withered away, and the rest were elves who either didn’t like to talk or hated Thor, so apart from the “whooshing” sound of bows and arrows when they encountered prey, almost no one was chatting.
They walked almost the entire mountain, and the prey piled up more and more, but they were all small prey. The largest one was just a deer that Phil needed. The moment the deer appeared, the other elves tacitly agreed not to draw their bows.
It wasn’t until he hunted the deer with his own hands that Phil’s disappointed face regained its smile.
There was plenty of sunshine at noon, and most of the entire forest was explored. In the past, hunting would have included brown bears, wild wolves and other beasts, but today everyone’s results were not ideal.
Lu Qinian only hunted a few hares and a bird.
Lyle frowned and was silent for a long time, and finally said: “That’s it for today.”
Several people carried their prey on their backs and returned in the direction of the elves. The elves had the most prey and were dragging a few in their hands.
Phil dearly carried the deer on his back, tied it tightly with a rope and dragged it away.
The entire forest was quiet along the way, without any movement of large animals. As time passed, their vigilance also dropped.
Phil once again took charge of the atmosphere in the team, but this time he did not talk to Lu Qinian, but another elf in the team who smiled and shared interesting stories.
Lu Qinian listened silently. He had the fewest prey, was the smallest in size, and walked the easiest.
Crash–
Lu Qinian paused in his steps and looked away towards a dark place.
As soon as he stopped, the elf at the bottom had no way to go. He stopped and asked, “Why don’t you leave?”
Lu Qinian raised his ears and listened carefully. After a while, the surroundings were quiet: “I heard wrong.”
The elf suddenly said impatiently: “Are you leaving or not? Don’t waste time.”
This time, without waiting for a response, he walked directly past Lu Qinian and walked to the center of the team.
Lu Qinian ignored it and slowly followed the team. His ears were filled with Phil’s laughter from time to time.
“Crash-”
He turned his head instantly. This time it was true. He heard it very clearly, and the voice was several meters closer to him.
“Crash-”
It’s moving!And it’s very fast!
“Crash-”
Lu Qinian opened the bow and arrow in his hand and stared attentively.
“Shua——”
A giant ferocious tiger emerged from the jungle. The tiger’s head hung slightly to the ground, and its nose seemed to be sniffing something.
Only then did Lu Qinian realize that the tiger had one eye. One deep round pupil stared fiercely at him, while the other one was a deep, dark hole.
This tiger may have been hunted many times, and most of them ended with the death of the hunter, otherwise the one-eyed tiger would not be able to survive for more than a few days.
Lyle and the others immediately came over, but when they saw the tiger clearly, they stopped moving and even deliberately lowered their breathing for fear of alarming the beast in front of them.
“It, is it the tiger that killed Ona and Ollie a few months ago? I heard it was also one-eyed.” The elf who was supposed to be at the bottom said in a panic.
This sound immediately attracted the tiger’s attention.
“Damn it.” Lyle glared at the elf fiercely, then clenched the bow and arrow in his hand.
The ferocious tiger’s pupils were round, its ears moved slightly, and its dark, round pupils were slightly raised to meet Lu Qinian’s calm green eyes.
It was stunned, and its round pupils shrank into small circles.
Almost instantly, a roar penetrated the entire forest – “Roar!!!”
The tiger’s nose sharply rose, its lips rose instantly, and wrinkles formed on its facial skin. In an instant, its tough tiger teeth that could bite leg bones at will were revealed. As it bared its teeth, its naturally falling beard suddenly rose.
Its body arched, and its animal eyes kept turning on the elf.
After a pause, they walked around and around in the forest. Not to mention the tiger in front of them, they didn’t even see a brown bear. Now, an injured tiger suddenly jumped out. It didn’t feel right no matter how you looked at it.
But before he had time to think about it, the tiger had already pounced on him.
He was always vigilant and straightened the bow and arrow in his hand the moment the tiger stood up.
The next second, his fingers instantly relaxed.
Whoosh——
The extremely fast bow and arrow pierced the tiger’s left shoulder with a “pop” sound. He turned around and opened the distance between him and the tiger, and subconsciously hid on the left side of his body.
At the same time, a bow and arrow shot by Lyle not far away passed by his ear.
“Whoosh——”
Symmetrically with Lu Qinian’s arrow, it pierced the tiger’s right shoulder.
Their actions instantly ignited the tiger’s anger, and bursts of panting and roaring sounds from the beasts continued.
A line of blood flowed from the forelimbs pierced by sharp arrows on both sides of the tiger’s shoulders, but it did not affect the beast’s arched front body at all.
Lyle was shocked and shouted loudly: “Thor! Run!”
While roaring, he ran very fast towards the direction of Lu Qinian.
The moment he finished speaking, the tiger jumped up again and was about to pounce on the elf.
Lu Qinian was too close to it, and the distance he had just opened was only two feet away. The tiger only took two steps to close the distance again.
Unable to completely avoid the tiger’s attack in a short period of time, he secretly asked 009, then raised the bow and arrow in his hand high and stretched it to the limit.
“Whoosh——” “Whoosh——”
But he didn’t find two arrow feather sounds.
An arrow feather suddenly appeared on the tiger’s back.
Puff, puff, two consecutive sounds pierced the tiger’s eyes and head.
“Ho ho…” The tiger opened its mouth, and blood continued to gush out like spring water.
“Plop” it fell to the ground, and within a short while, the entire land beneath it was soaked in red.
The elf at the bottom knew that Shenzi had almost caused a catastrophe. The moment the crisis was resolved, he apologized profusely. He looked closely at the tiger for a while and said firmly: “That’s it. It has attacked many people in the past few months. Not only the elves, but also the orcs of the deer tribe and the sheep tribe. It has killed countless orcs.”
Another elf squatted down and raised the tiger’s front paw and said: “One eye, there is a scar on the wrist. It is really the tiger that killed Ona and Ollie. Grandma Aoling doesn’t have to cry anymore tonight.”
Lu Qinian stared at the arrow that pierced the back of the tiger’s head. The arrow not only penetrated the tiger’s skull, but even penetrated most of the entire arrow body. It can be seen that the arrow wielder is not only powerful, but also has a deliberately chosen angle. Even his arrow, which relied on the system to penetrate the tiger’s skull, only penetrated a few centimeters.
Who could it be.
Lyle, who also noticed the bow and arrow like Lu Qinian, was also looking deep into the forest.
But no hunter appeared for a long time.
“He won’t show up.” Lu Qinian said firmly.
Two arrow feathers appeared at the same time to kill the tiger. This tiger was hunted by him and the other party at the same time. However, it has been a long time and the other party has not shown up. According to the agreement between the hunters, the other party has given up claiming the prey.
Now this tiger is decided by Lu Qinian alone.
“Yes.” Lyle had been hunting for a long time and naturally knew this. He turned to look at Lu Qinian: “What are you going to do?”
The short-haired elf lowered his eyes and looked at the tiger body, and said after a while: “Take it back and give it to Grandma Aoling.”
Until the elf’s back completely disappeared, a few orcs who looked similar to the long-dead beasts on the ground walked out of the darkness.
A tiger-faced orc in ordinary clothes checked the tiger on the ground. After a while, the orc’s legs trembled and said to an orc in rich clothes: “Your Highness, the tiger dog is dead.”
“You said that if you release it, you will definitely kill the elf!” The orc in gorgeous clothes is the eldest son of the King of the Tiger Clan, Hu Shan.
Hushan looked angry: “The dog I had raised for several years was killed like this. What crime do you deserve?!”
The orc could kneel on the ground and stumbled: “Your Highness, Your Highness, the orc who cannot transform is an irrational and ferocious beast. Moreover, the tiger dog is old and has often been around various races in recent years… Only since the two brother elves pierced its eyes a few months ago, the tiger dog is not as powerful as before.”
“Do you know that this elf doesn’t come out of its clan very often, so how difficult it is to find it once?” Hu Shan’s face was gloomy.
The orc kept kowtowing and said with trembling words: “Your Highness, I think… we cannot let the ferocious tigers out in the short term. Instead, we should let the people of the bear tribe let the ferocious beasts out.”
Hushan rolled his eyes, remained silent for a long time, and then said in a cold voice: “If that doesn’t work… just sacrifice to the heavens for the ancestors of the Tiger clan.”
“Yes, yes.”
3.
As night fell, the moonlight enveloped the entire elves.
It was already sunset when he was dealing with the tiger. After Lu Qinian cleaned his whole body in a pool outside the tribe, it was completely dark. Fortunately, the moonlight was bright and the young elf was still playing around, so the journey back to the wooden house alone was not boring.
Arriving near the wooden house, Lu Qinian was stunned.
The small wooden house in front of me was completely brand new, and it was absolutely amazing. The original gray wooden house had been completely cleaned, and fresh and bright flowers filled the entire window.
The originally dark interior now became extremely bright.
Lu Qinian looked around and finally confirmed that he had not gone the wrong way or admitted to the wrong door.
The wooden house in front of him was really his dilapidated house.
It turns out that mermaids can also turn into snails.
Lu Qinian pushed open the wooden door in front of him, and the room was bright. Alessi was sitting in a familiar position with his back to him, and the wooden table was filled with steaming delicacies.
Hearing the voice, Alessi turned around calmly: “You’re back?”
Facing those black eyes that could see through the heart, Lu Qinian nodded: “Wooden house…”
Before he finished speaking, Alessi said directly: “I sent someone to do it. You don’t like it?”
Lu Qinian knew that he would not do this with his own hands, but he did like a well-decorated house. If Alessi hadn’t taken the lead, maybe he would have decorated it with his own hands in a few days.
“It’s very warm, thank you, I like it very much.”
Alessi then moved his eyes away with satisfaction: “Let’s eat.”
Lu Qinian worked hard all day without eating a single bite of food. He was tired and hungry. The first time he walked in, his eyes kept falling on the food. Hearing this, he quickly sat aside and waited for the meal to be served.
The meat stewed to just the right temperature, the vegetables stir-fried crisp and refreshing, and the rice full and fragrant. Apart from the meal at the campfire feast, this was the best meal he had eaten since coming to the elves.
Alessi put down the bowl and chopsticks after taking only a few bites, and quietly watched the elf eating the food one bite at a time. Lu Qinian ate very quickly, but his movements were graceful.
Alessi watched with interest, and even those troublesome things were forgotten.
Unexpectedly, at this glance, I saw the elf eating up all the food in a hurry, and then put down the bowl and chopsticks reluctantly.
“Are you full?”
Lu Qinian calmed down and said, “I’m full.”
He couldn’t control it for a moment and had to feed himself. If Alessi wasn’t here, he would definitely lift up his clothes and pat his round belly.
Alessi looked away and whispered: “Come in.”
The next second, the guard pushed open the wooden door and took away all the tableware with one clean movement.
It was a great day. Lu Qinian looked at the guard’s back with envy and didn’t come back to his senses until the wooden door closed.
Alessi: “I want to give it to you.”
President Zhenba said that he could not afford to maintain bodyguards. Lu Qinian quickly shook his head: “No, where were you this morning?”
Alessi was silent: “There is something that needs to be dealt with.”
Lu Qinian nodded and didn’t care: “I was delayed for a while while out hunting today. I’ll treat you first.”
The elf took the initiative to explain why he came home late, but Alessi’s eyes lit up and he didn’t answer.
During the healing period, Lu Qinian recounted everything that happened throughout the day: “However, I gave the tiger to Grandma Aoling to handle on her own.”
Alessi did not express an opinion. Lu Qinian thought for a while and expressed his doubts: “This tiger appeared very strangely. We had patrolled the entire forest at that time and did not find a ferocious beast. However, this tiger seemed to appear suddenly and was deliberately placed in front of us.”
“Instead, there is a strange hunter.”
Hearing this, Alessi raised his eyebrows.
“He and I hunted tigers at the same time, but he gave up on claiming the prey…” Lu Qinian secretly observed Alessi’s expression while falling asleep.
The mermaid didn’t do anything except raising her eyebrows, which made Lu Qinian a little hesitant.He was indeed doubting Alessi. He didn’t blame him for thinking too much, but the arrow’s feathers were too deep into the back of the tiger’s head. He couldn’t think of anyone other than Alessi in this situation.
After all, he witnessed with his own eyes the scene where Alesh broke the neck of the Siren leader with his bare hands.
But if you think about it carefully, Alessi is a mermaid. Even if he has strength, he has no chance to practice bow and arrow. After all, you cannot shoot arrows at the bottom of the sea. Otherwise, there would be no trident, a weapon unique to the ocean.
After Lu Qinian figured it out, he threw this thought out of his head.
After the treatment, Alessi silently drank the soup brought by the guard.
Lu Qinian walked into the bedroom. The wooden bed in front of him was not big. It would be crowded if two people slept at the same time. It was an accident that he and Alexi slept together in the past few days, so he didn’t think much about it.
But today, none of them were drunk, and they didn’t have nightmares. The embarrassment overflowed to the surface.
If they are brothers sleeping together, there is no problem, but he can feel that his heart is very complicated.
Lu Qinian: “…” He was silent.
As soon as he thought about sleeping in the same bed as Alessi who was awake, he couldn’t help but want to escape.
Alessi walked in after drinking the medicine and saw the elf looking at the wooden bed with a lifeless face.
“What happened to the bed?”
“I’m just wondering how to sleep.” Lu Qinian blurted out subconsciously.
Alessi: “How do you want to sleep?”
Lu Qinian narrowed his eyes in pain: “I’ll sleep on the floor.”
Alessi’s eyes darkened: “We have been sleeping together for the past few days, now you have any objections?”
It sounds like he is a heartless person.
“That was not you a few days ago…” Lu Qinian defended in a low voice: “But the bed is too small, and it is uncomfortable for two people to squeeze together.”
For a long time, when Lu Qinian thought that the other party would not respond, Alessi nodded and said: “You are right, but sleep together.”
Lu Qinian lowered his voice and did not dare to speak further when he met the gloomy gaze.
I thought it would be unnatural to sleep in the same bed with the awake Alessi, but I didn’t expect to fall asleep soon after lying down. Naturally, I didn’t know that those deep eyes looked at him with deep meaning for a long time.
When Lu Qinian woke up early the next morning, Alessi was not in the cabin. He didn’t feel the movement of the person beside him leaving, but the coolness of his palms touching the quilt told him that Alessi had been gone for a long time.
He didn’t think much, but walked out of the wooden house and went to the sacred tree.
The news of the tiger hunting yesterday has spread throughout the entire clan, especially since this tiger was the murderer of Ona and Ollie. The entire elven clan was in a state of excitement.
The sacred tree was only a hundred meters away from the wooden house, and many elves came up to greet him and even asked for many details.
Lu Qinian was answering questions along the way.
Walking under the sacred tree, more elves surrounded Lu Qinian. The walking staff in the patriarch’s hand was lifted up and hit the ground, making a “ta-da-da” sound, attracting everyone’s attention.
“Okay, don’t surround him.” The clan leader’s old voice sounded, his misty green eyes looked at Lu Qinian lovingly, and said: “Thor, stand up.”
“Yes, Grandpa.” Lu Qinian stepped forward obediently.
The elf leader spoke slowly: “Yesterday, Thor hunted and killed a tiger. This tiger did many evil things. It injured people many times and then escaped. It even killed the two brothers Ona and Ollie four months ago.”
As he said this, a whimper sounded from the crowd, which was Grandma Oling’s trembling sobs.
There was a burst of anger on the faces of all the elves.
“Since that day, our tribe has searched for the tiger’s whereabouts in the forest many times, but the tiger’s whereabouts were unknown. Until last month near the Deer Tribe, this ferocious tiger killed several Deer Tribe orcs and Sheep Tribe orcs one after another, but it was still not captured.”
“Yesterday, this ferocious beast was hunted and killed by Thor in the forest valley, which can be regarded as settling the hatred of our clan.”
“It’s this one-eyed tiger! Thor hunted it, and he hunted it well!” shouted an elf.
“Good hunting!” Many elves responded to him.
“This tiger is Thor’s prey, and he alone should decide where to go. He has already given the tiger to Aoling, so this tiger belongs to Aoling. However, the beast is full of sins, and the leader of the Deer Clan is itching to die. They hope that we can give half of the tiger body as a gift.” The clan leader sighed.
This tiger ate Aoling’s child. The pain of losing her child was so painful that no one else could make a decision for her. The orcs of the deer tribe also had many elderly grandmothers who lost their children, so it was understandable that they wanted half of the tiger’s body.
After all, who wouldn’t want to vent their anger on a murderer?
“…I am willing.” Grandma Aoling is the same age as the clan leader. Her white hair is full of haggard and sadness, but she is more determined at this moment: “I am willing to give half of my tiger body to the deer clan.”
“Okay.” The elf leader also revealed a smile.
The last time the boy from the Deer Clan came to deliver a message to tie up the relationship between the Elf Clan and the Deer Clan, this time it was a clean slate.
After settling the matter, Lu Qinian followed the elf clan leader for some quick questions and answers before returning to the wooden house.
Yesterday, because Grandma Aoling kept asking for rewards, Lu Qinian put all the prey at Grandma Aoling’s house. He even forgot to leave a few fresh meat for cooking.
Lu Qinian sighed and returned to the wooden house.
cabin.
Several mermaid guards were assembling a new wooden bed in the wooden house.
“Quickly, move everything in before His Majesty comes back.”
Lu Qinian’s eyes fell on the lounge chair made by the guards outside the house.
Judging from the size of the lounge chair, it was custom-made according to Alessi, but his wooden house is very small, and such a huge object may be able to fill the front window.
Do you want to change to a bigger house?
Lu Qinian thought for a long time outside the wooden house. The wooden house was originally a little old since he was a child. He was worried when going up and down the stairs for fear that the wooden boards would suddenly break. However, people have feelings for old things, and it is difficult to part with them in most cases.
The person who grew up from a nap was Sol, not me, Lu Qinian.
He and Alessi would need a big house to live together in the future.
“…” Why does he live with Alessi?
Lu Qinian’s mood was complicated.
He suddenly discovered that when Alessi was not around, he would think of him from time to time.When Alessi was around, he looked at one person with all his heart and eyes.
In modern times, isn’t this…
“Thor, come here.” A familiar voice interrupted his thoughts.
Lu Qinian turned around and looked around. Alexi was wearing cloth armor and standing in the sun. The sun was shining on him. His black curly hair was shiny. Alexi’s mouth turned up and he smiled and said, “I found a hot spring in another mountain. Do you want to go and play?”
Lu Qinian quickly averted his eyes, perhaps because he realized something was wrong with his feelings, and he couldn’t look directly at Alessi.
“Go.”
Alessi smiled. No matter how he looked at it, he was still the most beautiful elf. He felt even more satisfied when the elf looked confused but would not refuse.
The mountain road can only be walked on legs. Lu Qinian walked side by side with Alessi: “Why did you change all the furniture?”
“Don’t you think the bed is too small?” Alessi said calmly.
Yes, but the house is smaller.Lu Qinian gave up the topic: “Does your head still hurt?”
“It’s much better.” This is indeed true. Alessi has only had pain after coming to the elves.
Lu Qinian made a calculation in his mind. The number of mermaid headaches has decreased, and the frequent disappearances are most likely to deal with official business or other ethnic groups.
After thinking for a while, he asked: “Do you know about the crusade?”
Alessi said indifferently: “Well, let them do whatever they want.”
When we arrived near the hot spring, most of the surrounding forest was shrouded in mist. The hot spring was not small, and it was not a problem for ten people to soak in the naturally formed hot spring.
The hot spring water is clear and clear, and you can see to the bottom at a glance. The bottom is full of large rocks, just enough for people to step on.
Lu Qinian stretched out his hand, and the water temperature was just right.
The short-haired elf seemed to have been immersed in a layer of white light in the mist, and his whole body shone white. His slender fingers slowly stretched out to test the water temperature, and then looked up at him in surprise. Alessi watched this scene intently.
“Can you soak in the hot spring?” The mermaid has a low body temperature. This kind of hot water is just right for Lu Qinian, but Alessi might be cooked if it were replaced.
Alessi: “I can soak for a while.”
Hearing this, Lu Qinian nodded and made a move in the next second. Since he was soaking in the hot spring, he must take off his clothes.
“What’s wrong?” Alexi tilted his head in confusion.
Lu Qinian: “…”
Suddenly I felt that Alessi did it on purpose.
Lu Qinian didn’t pause anymore. He quickly took off his clothes and walked into the hot spring. When he saw the elf wearing a pure white low-shirt, Alexi moved his eyes away in disappointment.
Lu Qinian met Alei Xi’s deep gaze and smiled: “Come down, let’s go together.”
