Elf Archer of Life in Another World

The further we walk into the mountains, the colder the wind becomes and the thicker the shadows we see along the way.

It was daytime when the caravan entered Beitai City every year, and dusk came at this time. The cold wind from the top of the mountain blew into the valley from all directions, but their destination was still the small lake in the valley with the lowest altitude here.

Nian Nian complained a few words about the bad timing of doing the task, and asked Qi Youfeng to make her new cold-proof clothes. Then she closed her mouth in the increasingly biting evening wind, hugged her arms tightly, and put her two hands together. Hold it between your arms and move forward quickly with concentration.

After half an hour, Qi Youfeng finally determined that Nian Nian had not noticed the paper crane hovering above her head, and reached out to pull her sleeve.

"What are you doing?" Nian Nian had a stiff face and his tone was not very good.

"Someone looking for you."

Qi Youfeng pointed to the top of her head. The paper crane was torn by the mountain wind, and its wings were split into three pieces. It looked pitiful. If it weren't for the magnetism blessed by the system that fixed it near Nian Nian, it would have been blown to the horizon and shattered into pieces.

"Oh." Nian Nian turned around and continued on his way.

"Don't you want to take a look?" Qi Youfeng thought for a while. There were only a few people who could find each other every year. I guess there was something going on?

"No, my hands are freezing." Nian Nian shrank his neck again and kicked his legs. This leg is first cold, then painful, and then numb. If it continues like this, it will become useless.

"......Too."

Qi Youfeng expressed his understanding. Even he felt a little cold. His fingertips were slightly cold, so he stopped holding Nian Nian's hand and just tried to walk upwind of her.

"Quick, quick, your three ancestors are going to go astray again."

Nian Nian suddenly bumped into Qi Youfeng, raised his leg and kicked the back of the Qu family's three tools.

The Qu family's three brothers were indeed "enemies" sent by the system. From time to time, they would be attracted by the broken stones on the roadside, and then quietly deviate from the route and go into a valley, looking left and right, knocking here and there. Chi Chi, euphemistically called it: There must be something fishy about this place.

After all, these three people are also from the Xiuxian sect. They are not afraid of the cold and heat, and have good physical strength. They have always been at the forefront of the five-person team. Nien Nian and Qi Youfeng only regard them as guides and follow the footsteps of these three people safely.

Fortunately, Nian Nian had a good sense of direction and had carefully studied Qi Youfeng's mission map. He stopped the three excited people in time and righteously condemned them for their dereliction of duty.

"This girl misunderstood. Of course we know the way, but there is a high-quality iron mine nearby. Anyway, it's on the way. Why don't we go explore it?" Qi Chi, one of the three tools, explained patiently.

"Let's look for a ghost! Can we find a place quickly before dark?" Nian Nian flatly refused.

However, her opinion was not taken seriously, and she was so angry that she just wanted to tear off the demon-avoiding charms on these three people and throw them to the evil of the demon clan.

Fortunately, Qi Youfeng cooperated with the work and expressed the urgency of exploring the water source in time, pulling the three people back from the "different path".

Who would have thought that from this time on, the three members of the Qu family would go further and further on the road of "diversified roads, often wandering", and they would spiral towards the valley and small lake they had planned to go through, correcting and deviating again. .

The mineral veins explored by these three people have also evolved from iron mines to gold and silver mines, gem mines, and even various rare fairy iron stones. The rewards promised to Qi Youfeng are becoming more and more generous.

It's a pity that Lang's heart is as strong as iron. Qi Youfeng smiled lightly and while comforting Nian Nian who was gradually losing his patience, he firmly advised these three people to follow the correct route.

Nian Nian is actually a bit cautious.

She is not stupid. She naturally knows that these are side tasks that involve risks and opportunities. If she abandons them all, it may affect Qi Youfeng's final advancement evaluation and rewards.

"Brother Feng," Nian Nian hesitated for a while, then crossed his arms and walked next to Qi Youfeng, "I just extorted a top-notch water magic crystal from Simir. Can you share half of it?"

"No, magic crystal doesn't seem to be in the same system as us, right?" Qi Youfeng laughed. Should he say that he is generous every year or stingy?

"Well, it seems so." Nian Nian quietly stuck out his tongue, breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his head again, "Then, I will ask Kraft to modify your weapons, or make some powerful equipment for you. You But don’t be polite!”

She is not the one who provides the work, effort and materials, so don’t be polite!

Qi Youfeng saw through Nian Nian's little thoughts and nodded along with the flow: "Okay, I'll thank you for the hard work."

Nian Nian smiled, rubbed Qi Youfeng's arm affectionately, jumped up twice, and kissed his face twice.

"Hmph! We in the Mo family have many skilled craftsmen, and we also have many good things at our fingertips!"

The three brothers of the Qu family, who had been rejected countless times, had already put on a stern face. When they heard this, they couldn't help but interrupt.

There were so many good things he encountered along the way, it was just like picking them up for free. Qi Youfeng did not cherish them, but was bribed by some second-rate craftsman. It was simply

The three brothers of the Qu family looked at the trembling little girl, and then looked at her face and figure. They really didn't have the nerve to force themselves to say that beauty is misleading.

"Actually, it will only make you colder if you huddle up like this. It might be better to stretch your body and run around and jump a few times. It might be a lot better."

Qi Youfeng turned a deaf ear to the complaints of these three people, and still focused on Nian Nian.

"Now I just want to find that lake quickly, jump in, and die early." Nian Nian curled his lips and gathered himself together again.

"The real situation is that you will get cramps in the water very quickly, and then you will really drown." Qi Youfeng is not sure how "real" Nian Nian can be, so he can only assume the worst case scenario. Intend.

"...It's really troublesome. Which bastard made me look like this?" Nian Nian hid the subject and complained softly.

Qi Youfeng took a guess, maybe it was "you", maybe it was "human beings", or maybe it was "reality".

"I was thinking along the way that it would be good if you could retain a little bit of your temperament." Qi Youfeng ruffled her hair through Nian Nian's hat.

If she can face herself directly, she will feel that she is very good, and she will feel that she is very good the way she is, and she should be able to avoid a lot of unnecessary thoughts.

For example, she accepted him more calmly, responded to him regardless of the consequences, and finally left him lightly. Even if it hurt him in the end, she could still smile happily.

In this way, he will temporarily put aside his worries about the future and possess her in the present without any scruples.

"As long as it's me, I have a good temper~" Nian Nian tilted his head and avoided Qi Youfeng's hand.

"Well, as long as it's you, everything will be fine." Qi Youfeng followed suit and pretended not to hear the disdain from the other three light bulbs.

"You three, if you don't hurry up, I'm going to have to stretch my muscles!"

But Nian Nian didn't have such a good temper. He stared at the three people with his eyes on his hips and glanced at the three people's faces one by one with an unkind expression.As her eyes moved, the shadows in the mountains expanded silently, and black clouds slowly approached the three of them from behind.

Nian Nian frowned, let go of his anger, turned around with a cold snort, and walked quickly, but it was really not that cold anymore.

Qi Youfeng quietly withdrew his gaze, casually raised his hand and hugged the three stunned people, and hurriedly caught up with Nian Nian's footsteps.

"What's going on? Did you cause it?" Qi Youfeng asked in a low voice, with a hint of worry under his calm face.

"No, they are synchronizing with me and want me to go somewhere." Nian Nian's eyebrows knitted together, and there was no intention of covering up.

Anyway, Qi Youfeng is one of his own and can be trusted.

"Is this where we are going?" Qi Youfeng thought of his mission. If you go deep into the water veins hidden underground in the snowy mountains, you will encounter some strange things and strange places.

"No, it's a place I must never and cannot go." Nian Nian sighed.

"Why are you in such a hurry to go to the underground veins?" Qi Youfeng finally asked.

The scene just now made the worry in his heart outweigh the respect for Nian Nian's secret. The most important thing was that Nian Nian seemed to no longer try to hide it.

"I can't go to that place, and I don't want to go, but I can lead others there." Nian Nian blinked and said no more.

"For your own safety?" Qi Youfeng asked for confirmation.

"Of course." Nian Nian nodded matter-of-factly.

"That's fine. I can cooperate with you in whatever you want to do." Qi Youfeng's tone was firm and decisive, "It doesn't matter if you fail the mission, it doesn't matter if you take my life."

Nian Nian stopped and rolled his eyes at him: "Who knows where you will die and return? Who will make my clothes?"

"It's not far away, it's in Hawarizhe City. You can get back in one day." Qi Youfeng smiled like a fox.

"...That won't work, it just won't work!" Nian Nian stamped his feet, muttered a few words, and ran to the front.

Qi Youfeng stood there and smiled softly, completely forgetting the three disciples behind him, and caught up with Niannian in a few steps and hugged her from behind.

She could hear his footsteps every year, but she was also startled by him. She felt the weight of the man pressing on her body, and struggled with both hands: "I'm so short, do you have the nerve to press me? I'm not long. It’s here!”

"Just press you, of course I'm sorry." Qi Youfeng bit her ear, let her go, looked up, and smiled.

"arrive."

Surrounded by mountains, the small crystal lake is like a dazzling diamond. Surrounded by the darkness cast by the mountain peaks, it still emits a dazzling light, making the darkness even more weird.

......

Beitaicheng.

Nick waited from day to dusk, and from dusk to late night, and finally waited for Niannian's answer.

It doesn’t matter who you save, is the water cold?
