Yi Luli, who has turned back into a human form, clapped her hands as if she wanted to attract the attention of the villagers, but even the clapping movements were so slow, it made people feel anxious...
After waiting for a long time, no one in the village poked their heads out. At this moment, Du Wei finally couldn't help but took off his thick gloves and applauded for her.
His applause resounded throughout the small village, and then green-haired wood elves popped out of the tree house. They saw them crawling down the tree house slowly, and then walked towards them slowly...
Is this a wood elf?This Nima cottage, right?
With a demented expression and slow moving speed, dare to tell him that this is a wood elf! ?
"Aunt Edith, are the wood elves moving so slowly? I remember many stories about wood elves telling that they are the children of the forest, and they can travel through the natural forest very dexterously."
Even if Du Wei questioned it in front of the wood elf Iluli, she still looked dumbfounded, as if she didn't intend to make excuses, as if she was only living in her own world.
Edith saw Du Wei's disappointment and explained with a wry smile.
"Most of the wood elves are as you said, but the wood elves here are an exception. They have lived in seclusion here for a long time. It can be said that they have almost no communication with the outside world except for winter hunting."
Does that mean the Wood Elves lived so long that they degenerated?But this should be considered the territory of the Faerwen family, right?There is always communication when taxes are collected, right?
"Aren't they considered our citizens?"
Howard rubbed Du Wei's head and said.
"Legally, they are considered our citizens, but in reality, they are more like a helper."
"helper?"
"From the past ancestors, the wood elves have always played the role of protecting the balance of the forest. Most of them do not participate in secular battles unless the flames of war spread to the forest where they live, and the wood elves here are the same. They all maintain a good relationship with these forest watchers, and unless something major happens in the forest, the wood elves generally won't communicate with us."
It turns out that the wars of the Knox Empire are almost always fought on hostile lands, so there are very few wars in their own territories, so these wood elves have degenerated into this appearance after living in seclusion for a long time?
They've talked for such a long time, but those wood elf villagers are still on the road with tortoise-like steps... It's really annoying to watch!
"Can these wood elves really survive in the forest?"
It's not that Du Wei wants to question the strength of the wood elf, but the wood elf named Iluli next to him is already sleeping with his mouth open, right?He could see the saliva dripping down the side.
Edith shook the wood elf lady.
"Don't look down on them, these wood elves are actually very powerful, and this Iluli is a high-level druid herself."
This... the strength of the wood elves came from sleep?Could it be that the wood elves belong to a race that sleeps stronger like the dragon?
Howard put his hands to his ears and seemed to be listening.
"There are not only wood elves here, listen carefully to see if there is anything coming."
Du Wei imitated his posture and listened to the sounds in the forest, as if something was really approaching here, it sounded like a group of girls playing with each other.
"Ah la la, a guest is here!"
"It's a guest! It's a guest! Hehehe."
"Wow! Little guest!"
Suddenly, a group of girls jumped out of the forest. Their footsteps were fast, and they came to Du Wei from a hundred feet away after bouncing around a few times.
"Lin Jing!"
These girls with human upper body and deer lower body fit the impression of Lin Jing in his mind.
"Yes, they are the darlings of the forest, Lin Jing."
finally!He finally saw the fantasy creatures that fit his memory. This group of beautiful girls, who are half-human and half-deer, were just like what was written in the book, with innocent and cheerful smiles on their faces.
Kind of like a bunch of Lilias, to be honest.
"Is this the little lord?"
"Here is the fruit, this is just picked!"
"How about some honey?"
"Come play! Come play with us!"
It is true that everyone is very cheerful and hospitable, but it seems a bit too lively, completely different from the little elk named 'Shy Bud'...
A group of forest elves huddled together and chattered non-stop, which made people feel a little noisy, and even Iluli, who was sleeping with her eyes open, frowned.
Edith, who hated the noise, waved her hand to drive away the forest elves, and those forest elves were not angry, but turned around and ran to harass the wood elves who were still walking on the moon.
By the way, you wood elves are still leaving!How slow are your hands and feet?
"Obviously the forest elves talk so much, why are the wood elves still so dull?"
Obviously there is such a talkative Lin Jing, the wood elves should have no shortage of communication partners, right?
Howard laughed.
"That's because I'm so annoyed that I don't want to talk. Take a closer look at those wood elves who are entangled by forest elves."
...The wood elves who were entangled by the forest elves showed obvious pained expressions.
Indeed, if someone kept reading beside Du Wei, he would also feel very painful.
But it seems that the wood elves should be a very good-tempered race, and they just choose to suffer in silence when they are entangled like this.
"Style is really two races at the extremes."
"Hahaha, very interesting guys."
Just when the father and son were making sarcastic remarks, a wood elf finally came to them. For some reason, Du Wei suddenly felt a little moved.
The male elf, who looked a little old, said to Howard.
"Long time no see, Marquis Randall."
"No, Randall is my father...."
"...Oh, I'm sorry, so this child is Little Howard, right? He has really grown up."
"That...Your Excellency the Archdruid, I always said that Randall is my father, and I am Howard. This is my son Du Wei, and I have told you for several years, now Farr I am the head of the Wen Family."
It seems that this Wood Elf, whom Howard called the Archdruid, has already suffered from Alzheimer's disease, not to mention the title, and even people are beginning to be unable to recognize him.
Afterwards they were given a warm... hospitality by the village?
In short, the wood elves held a small welcome party for them. Howard seemed to want to introduce him to the group of wood elves during the winter hunting this year, so he brought Du Wei here specially.
But Du Wei guessed that the archdruid would soon forget about him.
After all, from the beginning of the banquet until now, he has never called his father's name correctly once. Can Alzheimer's be cured even by magic?
Edith secretly told him at the banquet that the archdruid had lived for a long time, and seemed to be older than the Falvin family. It could be said that he had watched the elders of their family for several generations.
And the history of Farwin's family seems to be more than 300 years. The lifespan of this wood elf is really long.
But although the life expectancy is long, the population is very small. Du Wei is really worried about their racial reproduction. After all, he has not seen any children in this village.
There were two extremes in this banquet. The wood elves on the left ate the fruit without saying a word, while the forest elves on the right were playing together.
Soon Du Wei was dragged by those Lin Jing to play together. They let him sit on their backs and carried him around. Leaving aside the noise, Lin Jing was indeed very friendly.
And Du Wei discovered a secret, that is, they may be a subspecies of sika deer, because the deer have little white spots on their body.
Howard poured wine for the wood elves everywhere, Edith played her high-cold beauty, and Du Wei played with Lin Jing until the afternoon before being called back to prepare to go home.
The black wolf Iluli led them to rejoin the released family knights, and when she left, she waved lazily and watched them leave.
Seeing that the horses of the black-feathered knights were full of prey such as wild boars, but their horses were filled with local products such as fruit and honey, which made Du Wei realize one thing...
And his winter hunting! ?
Didn't he just play with Lin Jing all day long! ?
...Forget it, come back next year.
023 Imperial Capital
On the night when he came back from winter hunting, Du Wei ate a delicious roast pig meal, but the pig was not the one he hunted...
When I listened to those black-feathered knights chatting on the way back, it seemed that they not only hunted animals, but also destroyed the surrounding goblin lairs.
Goblins are recognized as evil creatures no matter which world they are in. Du Wei is a little curious whether they really need to kidnap human females for reproduction...
Thinking about these plots in his head, he suffered from insomnia that day.
...
"Du Wei, didn't you sleep well?"
When having dinner the next morning, Mei Ye noticed that he was drowsy.
"Well...didn't sleep well yesterday."
"Then do you want to go to grandparents tomorrow?"
"It's okay, you don't need to change the time."
Although it was insomnia, it only changed from going to bed at nine to eleven. Compared with the previous life, I went to bed early, and the main reason for being groggy was because it was too cold in the morning.
After the meal, the whole family came to see him off in front of the teleportation circle, because Howard, Mei Ye and Edith were going to stay in the Duke's mansion to deal with government affairs, so only Du Wei and his body were going to the imperial capital. The two maids, Sana, looked at the teleportation circle in front of them, and Du Wei asked in confusion.
"I go to my grandparents every year, but why don't I remember the impression of using the teleportation circle?"
Mei Ye smiled and scratched his nose.
"Isn't it because you can't get out of bed every time, and every time you are transported by the maid holding you?"
"..."
In the past, Du Wei really couldn't get up. After all, the weather was too cold. Now he struggles to get up every day.
Howard squatted in front of Du Wei.
"In the past, remember to listen to your grandparents."
Edith seemed to want to say something to him too.
"Aunt Edith, what's the matter?"
"It may be... warmer than here in the imperial capital."
"really?"
Edith looked away guiltily.
"Ah."
"I'm leaving!"
After waving goodbye to his family, Sana led him into the teleportation circle.
I saw the runes on the ground shine blindingly, and then Du Wei came to a strange environment.
That's it for teleportation?Fortunately, he was still very nervous just now.
The novels wrote about the side effects of feeling dizzy and dizzy after teleportation, which caused him to prepare headache medicine specially.
But thinking about it is also true. After all, Karina and Emily often use the teleportation circle to play with him, and I haven't seen them say that the teleportation circle has any side effects.
"Oh! Here it comes, here it comes, this time it's still awake."
While Du Wei was lamenting the black technology, a familiar hearty laughter sounded nearby.
"grandfather!"
A middle-aged couple walked towards Du Wei, they were his grandfather and grandmother in this life.
Although they are grandpa and grandma, the age does not say how old they are, and they are probably in their 40s.
The images of grandpa and father are somewhat different. The latter is a handsome little fresh meat style, while the former is a mature and stable mature male uncle, and grandpa always likes to wear Knox's military uniform, which gives people a very masculine look a feeling of.
Grandma's beautiful appearance exudes a sense of mystery, her loose long hair and lazy posture make her look like a witch in a mage's robe.
Grandpa hugged Du Wei and kissed him fiercely. He is also a type of idiot parent, and he is a well-known grandson-sunning madman in the imperial capital. Last year, he carried his grandson everywhere to sun-dry.
"Du Wei, will it be cold? Let me put another cloak on you."
After the grandmother finished speaking, she put a cape for a child on him.
Sure enough, no matter which world there is a kind of cold called 'family thinks you are cold', but why does Du Wei feel that since he left the teleportation array, it has become hotter and hotter?
Grandpa didn't intend to put Du Wei down, but just hugged him and got into the carriage with grandma and Sana.
"Du Wei, is winter hunting fun?"
