Elf Archer of Life in Another World

When the bright yellow flames jumped up, the five people on the awning boat were shocked when they saw the woman's body swaying and entangled around them, and they huddled backwards like a cower.

Before the three members of the Qu family could cheer, the flame in the palm of Qi Youfeng's hand suddenly dazzled, and the heart of the flame turned from yellow to white, from white to gray, and burned out in the blink of an eye.

Ashes as fine as ashes fell on the deck, like a heavy hammer, smashing the three brothers of the Qu family from the clouds into the ground.

Qu Chi gritted his teeth and said nothing, took out the pumice stone he kept in his robe and handed it to Qi Youfeng.

This is the last piece.

Only this piece.

"I'm really sorry, I'm afraid we have to disturb the elegance of the two of you who live and die together." Qu Dou's face turned pale, and he did not forget to make a sarcastic comment.

The flame was extinguished, and Ru Lin's arms, which were originally shrinking, seemed to be going crazy and kept growing. The water channel was not wide to begin with, and countless white arms were already held together affectionately. The fleshy webs with clear knuckles were overwhelming, and the slender fingers were

It also rolled up the semicircular approach shield outside the ship, pinching hard into the thin layer of white light.

The steering wheel slipped from the fingertips of the ruler, and he slumped down and covered his ears with his hands, trying to block the laughter of the women outside the boat.

The awning boat could no longer move forward. The faces of those stunningly beautiful women were stuck on the translucent shield. Their small noses were sunken, their scarlet lips were slightly open, their dark eyes were unblinking, and their tender skin was knotted.

The layers of the skin were so hot that they melted, and the flesh-colored oil dripped on the shoulders and necks of the beauties, forming a layer of white folds as white as suet, trembling slightly, as if countless fat insects were squirming.

Qu Dou and Qu Zao looked at the lonely stone in Qi Youfeng's hand and collapsed to the ground in despair.

Nian Nian and Qi Youfeng were very calm. Unlike the three brothers of the Qu family, the two of them knew very well that the thin protective layer outside the awning boat was actually indestructible.

Unfortunately, there was no way to stop here. Nian Nian whispered: "This thing is afraid of fire. Can you find an excuse for me to set it on fire?"

After saying that, she looked around and patted the deck: "Light the ship?"

Qi Youfeng watched her movements and looked around the awning boat carefully. The wooden planks, wooden tables, wooden chairs, everything that could be seen with the eyes and touched with the hands were all wood.

Qu Dou seemed to understand his intention and couldn't help but said: "How do you burn this piece of pumice? Do you use flint to burn the boat into charcoal bit by bit?"

When people like them go out, they will naturally bring some things like flints and sickles, but using these things to light a fire requires a certain amount of igniting materials, and it is impossible to use a little spark to make the entire log burn.

Qi Youfeng was thoughtful and looked down at the pumice stone: "With a few more of these stones, can we escape from danger?"

"Why not? As long as there are more." Qu Dou stopped abruptly and realized that this is not a matter of quantity.

"No, no matter what," Qu Dou said bravely, "if you hadn't been in a hurry to look for it at that time and had come to us, we could have gotten more pumice stones, maybe..."

Qi Youfeng looked at him coldly, Qu Dou's voice became weaker and weaker, and he lowered his head and murmured.

"Do you want me..." Young asked softly.

Qi Youfeng shook his head with an indifferent expression. He sat cross-legged on the deck, as if he was considering how to speak. Niannian quietly stepped back. The three brothers of the Qu family who were at a loss could not help but focus on Qi Youfeng. After a few breaths, they calmed down.

A little bit.

"You use the results to extrapolate, so you think I made a mistake at that time, but in fact," Qi Youfeng paused briefly and weighed the stone, "When we saw the pumice stone, we didn't

I know I want to use it here, but at most I think it’s very convenient for lighting.”

"Two pumice stones will burn if they rub against each other for a while. You can only put one in each of your bags or hold another in your hand. In this way, there are only six pumice stones at most. With the burning we just saw,

In terms of speed, will there be a big difference between the results of taking six yuan and taking three yuan?"

"Besides, even if we did bring a lot of pumice stones to light a fire, look at this ship," Qi Youfeng tapped the deck with his fingers, "do you think we will escape successfully first, or will the ship be burned to ashes first?

"

"Then this stone is completely useless?" Qu Chi listened carefully and asked.

"Not necessarily, I'm thinking," Qi Youfeng was also a little hesitant, "The snake turned into a fish and became a fish wife. This thing should be more similar to snakes."

"Snakes are afraid of fire, smoke, and pungent smells." Qu Chi answered.

"Smoke..." Qi Youfeng repeated, raising his head to look at the curved ruler, "What is the principle of the furnace heart of this awning boat?"

Qu Chi was stunned for a moment, and looked at each other with the other two people, a little confused: "Actually, we are not particularly sure. It is said that this is borrowed from the skills of the dwarves. We really can't tell what the specific principle is."

Qi Youfeng tilted his head slightly, winked at him and quietly gave him a thumbs up.

She doesn't quite understand the principle, but that's not the point. The point is the effect.

"Gamble."

After saying casually, Qi Youfeng did not take his eyes back, and his eyes fell on the wooden door hiding the heart of the mechanism furnace, and handed the pumice stone in his hand to the ruler.

...

The five people in the awning boat did not see the actual effect of the smoke.

After the pumice stone was stuffed into the heart of the furnace, the barrier shield outside the ship suddenly became foggy, and the milky white smoke was mixed with an unpleasant burnt smell, like the smell of something being over-burned.

Not sure whether he guessed it right or what Nian Nian did, Qi Youfeng pulled Nian Nian and was about to ask in a low voice. In an instant, he screamed again and again, scrambling to get into the person's eardrum and wandering along the dense nerves in the skull.

, tapping his temples again and again.

Qi Youfeng couldn't care less about being happy. Nian Nian had been knocked down by the sudden scream, and he tightly covered his ears with a painful expression. A few strands of blood overflowed from his fingertips and flowed down his wrist into his cuffs.

Qi Youfeng quickly took out his pair of beige earplugs produced by Mingtang, but for a moment he didn't know whether he should put them in Nian Nian's ears. Nian Nian noticed his action, looked up with tears in his eyes, grabbed the earplugs, and put them in

In her bleeding ear canal, the soft ear canal skin stung due to friction. The sharp cones circling in her brain finally stopped, leaving only the fragile nerves still beating in vain, and a few blue veins stretched on her forehead.

Qi Youfeng held the New Year in his arms, feeling a little annoyed for a while and not in the mood to pay attention to other things.

It wasn't until the young man gently tugged at the corner of his clothes that Qi Youfeng noticed the three brothers of the Qu family spinning excitedly on the boat and nearly half of the water surrounding them.

Qi Youfeng only had time to catch a few hands retracted into the black scales with his eyes, and the stone walls on both sides and above his head turned into uneven black rocks, as if those beautiful women who had just grown up layer by layer were his.

hallucination.

Qu Chi threw himself on the steering wheel and turned quickly to avoid a huge boulder that suddenly appeared in the waterway ahead.

After bypassing the boulders, the five of them felt a little empty. Looking back, they found that the narrow waterway they drove through had disappeared.

The water waves rolled violently. The three brothers of the Qu family were unsteady and clung to the edge of the boat. Qi Youfeng held Nian Nian without moving, watching the water surface behind him sway, watching the black stone wall slowly descend, and finally disappeared into the calm.

under the water's surface.

Only then did the five people realize that they were actually staying on a wide lake. At a glance, the water far behind them was a little white, as if it was the water splashing from the rapidly turning groundwater.

The three brothers of the Qu family let out a sigh of relief. They should not have to worry about the return trip.

The awning boat continued to drive slowly. Qu Chi wanted to ask about the magic crystal and pumice stone several times, but looking at Qi Youfeng and Qi Youfeng who were hugging each other without saying a word, he still kept his doubts in his stomach.

.

"I'm fine," Niannian was the first to break the silence and smiled weakly, "I just didn't react for a while. Look, I'm fine now. I have super powers."

Qi Youfeng wiped the blood on her cheek and sighed: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't show off."

"What's there to be sorry for?" Nian Nian smiled brightly and tugged on his sleeve, "But you are really awesome. You solved the problem before I had time to do anything."

Qi Youfeng looked at the girl in his arms who raised her head slightly, her emerald eyes were filled with tenderness like water, and there were a few coquettish blood stains on her pale face.

His arms were tightened and he lowered his head to meet the undisguised expectation every year.

…

The boat was moving like a shuttle, and several hours passed unknowingly. The three brothers of the Qu family finally relaxed and returned to their old business. While writing about what they had just experienced, they used a compass to check the direction of the waterway.

When driving out of the big lake, the waterway forked.

The three of them didn't have the nerve to disturb the busy Qi Youfeng, so they discussed it together and finally chose the fork that might lead to the underground flow of Beitai City.

After that, the awning boat encountered more and more forks. The three brothers of the Qu family had to carefully confirm the direction, and their forward speed became slower and slower.

"It stands to reason that the task of detecting underground water veins should have been completed." Qi Youfeng frowned.

"Don't they want to go underground in Beitai City?" Nian Nian leaned against him lazily.

"So it's strange, where are they going and what are they doing?" Qi Youfeng was puzzled.

"Maybe there are other things." He closes his eyes every year and rests.

Qi Youfeng looked down for a while and rubbed the back of her hand: "Take a rest for a while. I'll call you when we arrive."

Accompanying him on this trip every year must have some personal purpose. She was probably the one who wanted to see the underground of Beitai City.

"Yeah." Nian Nian didn't say much, letting his thoughts drift with the gentle sound of water under the boat, drifting farther and farther, drifting slower and slower, and finally returned to calm.

She opened her eyes suddenly and saw the stone wall at the end of the waterway.

At the bottom of the stone wall, wide white stone steps blocked the water surface and rose precariously from the water surface.

The awning boat docked next to the stone steps. The three brothers of the Qu family carefully took their steps and climbed up the steps step by step. They reached the end after only ten steps. They looked at the stone wall in front of them and looked at each other with uncertain expressions on their faces.

They took out their compasses and maps and stood on the stone steps to write down calculations, completely forgetting about Qi Youfeng and the others.

"They are..." Qi Youfeng was still standing on the boat.

"Maybe I discovered that these stone steps lead to some interesting place." Nian Nian pointed out.

"I'll go down and take a look," Qi Youfeng told Qi Youfeng intuitively. This was the last step of his advanced mission. "You stay on the ship."

"Yes." Nian Nian agreed and stood at the bow of the ship, watching Qi Youfeng walk up the stone steps.

The three brothers of the Qu family who were originally muttering became quiet at some point, but Qi Youfeng suddenly didn't realize it. He stepped on the last stone step, but his whole body was frozen in the action of stepping forward.

Nian Nian turned his eyes and saw that the three brothers of the Qu family were doing the same thing, as if their running movements were inexplicably funny.

She had not smiled for years. She walked to the stern of the boat, took out a bone arrow from the quiver at her waist, and pointed it at a dark figure approaching quietly on the water.
