Elf Archer of Life in Another World

"You, who are you?"

This was just a reflexive question. Under the pressure of Lieer's momentum, Tristan's words seemed more like panic.

"Since you often travel to and from Usher for business, have you never seen me?"

Lieer replied calmly, looked at the three of them, and nodded slightly arrogantly.

"I have seen clearly what is going on here. I will wait for you in the City of Usher."

Tristan, Qi Youfeng and Niennian all present felt that this sentence was meant for them, but in fact, there was no problem with their understanding.

Lieer disappeared into the air just as he came, and Tristan immediately turned around to say goodbye. Qi Youfeng originally wanted to go with him, but Nian Nian gently tugged on the corner of his clothes behind him, and then pretended to be confused and asked Tristan to leave.

Already.

"The city lord knows that I am accompanied by a male NPC." Qi Youfeng spoke after Tristan walked away.

"If you don't want to get into trouble, it can be said that you met him by accident, and you really shouldn't know him." Nian Nian reminded him.

When talking to the city lord before, Qi Youfeng knew little about the affairs of Usher City. If he was too attentive at this time, he might arouse suspicion.

"Will Tristan also tell the city lord my guess and judgment?" Qi Youfeng regretted his gaffe just now.

"Definitely, but it's okay. This shouldn't be a secret within the dwarves." Nian Nian shook his head.

"I am an outsider." Qi Youfeng sighed.

"We are all players, how can he still kill people and silence them?" Niannian took his hand and smiled, "The most I can do is win you over and make you be careful about what you say, or get you involved and use real money to shut you up.

.”

"It seems good, although I doubt they have enough chips to buy me off."

Walking on the neat streets of the dwarves, Qi Youfeng and Nian Nian strolled together, randomly looking for a direction, and planned to find a place to stay overnight.

It's impossible to go back to that tavern before, but I don't know if the hotel here will be as good at doing business as the shrewd owner.

"It shouldn't be to this extent, but I'm afraid the limit is already close at hand." Nian Nian said softly.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the imminent shortage of resources that the city lords and residents here are so eager to make money and would rather waste the limited resources on themselves than share them with other insignificant others.

"According to that city lord's extravagant behavior, no matter how much resources he has, he won't be able to commit the crime."

Qi Youfeng obviously criticized that kind of gluttonous behavior.

"I just love to eat, and I can eat some, right?" Nian Nian shook his arm and said with a smile.

"Speaking of which... in an underground kingdom like the dwarves, would there be so much meat for them to squander?"

Qi Youfeng looked at the highly mechanized houses around him - each house had generator-like equipment on its outer wall - and the silver-white sphere above his head that moved along the trajectory. He couldn't imagine that there would be room for wild beasts to live here.

"There should be some, lizards, mice and the like." Every year I think of the various mounts of the dwarf knights.

She suddenly stopped, took off the black iron mask on her face, and said solemnly: "Speaking of food, let's go pick stone flowers!"

She doesn't care what the dwarves eat, she only cares about what she eats.

Every year, I dug out the Limeflower flowers I bought in the tavern, took some petals and stuffed them into my mouth, commenting: "It's a bit astringent, but very sweet, and it melts in your mouth. This is good food."

Seeing that she was eating with gusto, Qi Youfeng was a little curious. Under Nian Nian's eager gaze, he twisted a small piece of petals and tentatively put it into his mouth——

"Well, well, these flowers can't be eaten."

The two turned their heads and saw a small head that quickly retracted into the corner.

Qi Youfeng moved his throat subconsciously, and the petals slid into his esophagus, instantly causing a slight itching from the inside to the outside.

"How do you feel?" Nian Nian asked with concern, inexplicably a little gloating.

"It's itchy."

Qi Youfeng reported it truthfully and scratched his arm. After a few scratches, his skin turned red.

"Don't hold on," Niannian held down his hand, pulled him forcefully, and turned him around the corner, "Is there an antidote for this?"

Hiding in the corner was the little girl who came to the tavern to sell flowers. She lowered her head timidly and said, "No, there is no antidote. Just take a dip in the hot spring and it will be fine."

"Then lead the way." Niannian handed her two gold coins and looked back at Qi Youfeng, "Be patient, or I will tie your hands."

In just a few words, the red skin on Qi Youfeng's arm developed a dense layer of blisters. He didn't know if the blisters would cause other symptoms if they burst.

If he died and returned to the city because he was greedy and ate the wrong thing, this person would be too unfair.

"I think you'd better tie me up." Qi Youfeng endured it very hard, gritting his teeth and smiling bitterly.

"Um."

Nian Nian grabbed his other hand and tried it, but found that she couldn't hold his two wrists with one hand, so she simply grabbed the index fingers of both hands and pulled him a few steps.

"Does it look like escorting a prisoner?" Qi Youfeng took pleasure in the pain and followed her steps cooperatively.

"Lead the way."

Nian Nian first smiled at the little girl, then turned to look at Qi Youfeng and pouted: "We have caught a thief and are escorting him to be waterboarded. He is not allowed to escape, otherwise he will be knocked unconscious and dragged away."

"Don't worry, sir, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold me back."

Qi Youfeng shook his head and looked at the little girl who was still in a daze: "I thought you were quite smart before, why are you so stupid now?"

The little girl clenched her fists, opened her palms slightly, and revealed the two gold coins: "Just give me this money?"

"Yes, traveling expenses, and... news expenses." Nian Nian nodded.

"Then you won't want to go back to those things before, right?"

The little girl quickly hid her fists behind her back and looked at the two of them with hopeful smiles.

"So you're worried about this?" Nian Nian laughed and shook his head widely, "No, that's all for you."

The little girl let out a long breath, quickly looked at Qi Youfeng's arm, jumped out of the corner like a little rabbit, and called to the two of them: "Quick! Follow me!"

Niannian and Qi Youfeng caught up as promised. Under the leadership of this conscientious first aid guide, they made many twists and turns, sometimes climbing over the low wall, sometimes crawling through a bridge hole, and walked from the brightly lit neighborhood to the dark and crowded street.

Shanty town.

A quick glance every year revealed that the area of ​​this shanty town was more than ten times larger than the block in the center of the town. It only took them three minutes to cross the block, but it took them more than ten minutes to walk through these semi-underground slate houses.

There is no end in sight yet.

Of course, it may be that I am too embarrassed to walk on other people's roofs every year, so I can only try my best to find a place in the gaps between the slate houses. In addition, since there is no light, only relying on the faint light of the silver-white ball above my head, it is really difficult for the two of them.

The speed of people's travel increases the difficulty a lot.

The little girl climbed up to the roof of someone's house with ease - this skillful movement made Nian Nian feel friendly. He looked back at the two people and said clearly:

"You just walk on the roof. From here on, no one will live in those houses."

Nian Nian and Qi Youfeng jumped onto the low roof obediently, and finally caught up with the little girl. Nian Nian thought about it, hugged the little girl, and let her sit in his arms.

"Please show me the way. It's faster this way."

The blisters on Qi Youfeng's arms have swollen to the size of his fists, as if they will explode at any time. Looking at his expression and the sweat on his forehead, you can tell that he is definitely not feeling well right now.

The little girl was very sensible, and her speech was very organized and clear. She would always point out the direction in advance. After walking out of the shantytown, she entered a maze-like tunnel network. After passing countless corners and intersections, she finally saw a steaming field every year.

water surface.

"Jump in!"

The little girl pointed at the pool, and Qi Youfeng had already rushed past Nian Nian and jumped into the water with a splash.

"How does it feel?"

The cave where the hot spring is located is very large, and you can see an entrance on the other side from a distance. Nian Nian walked to the hot spring pool, put the little girl down, squatted on the ground, and saw Qi Youfeng diving down and coming up again.

He breathed a sigh of relief together.

"The effect was immediate and I was saved."

Qi Youfeng swam to the edge of the pool, raised his head and floated on the water, and said with a smile: "It's quite comfortable. Do you want to come down and take a bath?"

"No, I saw the food."

Nian Nian tilted his head and saw the stone flower under the rock wall. He poured a handful of water over it and said jokingly: "I'm just guarding the hot spring anyway. Do you want to try it again?"

"Thank you, no need. I really don't have the ability to digest it." Qi Youfeng immediately refused and swam away from the shore.

"I won't force it into your mouth." Nian Nian muttered and moved over to pick food and grass.

"Then, then, I'll go home." The little girl stood there and said hesitantly.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute while we take you back. Come," Nian Nian waved to her, "help me pick out some fresh and delicious food."

"This is really inedible..."

The little girl warned weakly, probably thinking that the varieties every year seemed different from her and the human man, so she didn't say anything more and obediently helped to distinguish the flowers and plants.

"Be good, I'll give you the labor fee."

Niannian wisely paid two more gold coins in exchange for the little girl's more enthusiastic guidance:

"There are more on the other side over there, and there are other flowers and plants, all of which are highly poisonous."

"Poisonous? It's good to be poisonous. No one will compete with me."

Looking at Qi Youfeng who had just climbed ashore every year, he smiled mischievously. Qi Youfeng silently cupped his hands, saying that he would remember the lesson and never say anything wrong.

"Then I'll go to the other side first to check the situation."

Qi Youfeng had already developed stress syndrome towards the seemingly harmless little flower. At a glance, he felt itchy all over his body, and the burning sensation of being tortured by blisters spread all over his arms.

"Go, go, don't eat randomly this time." Nian Nian waved goodbye with a smile.

Qi Youfeng knew that this obstacle would not be overcome for a while, so he sighed sadly and swam to the other side.

The sound of rushing water was rushing around in the empty cave. Nian Nian lowered his head to dig grass, then suddenly raised his head and looked at the other side of the hot spring.

Qi Youfeng hadn't swam to the shore yet, but he saw a small, dark group of moving figures scurrying around every year.

"Stay here."

Nian Nian whispered to the little girl, twisted and slipped into the water, chasing after Qi Youfeng like a swimming fish.

Qi Youfeng naturally saw the figure, but he didn't panic, just a little surprised.

This is also a child, a panicked dwarf boy.

Swimming slowly to the shore, Qi Youfeng saw clearly the reason for the boy's panic: two hissing venomous snakes.

Qi Youfeng rolled ashore, and with a flash of the sword, the two poisonous snakes were chopped into two pieces. The boy stretched out a leg, tapped the two beating snake heads with his toes, and mustered up the courage to kick them away.

"What's going on?"

Lying beside the hot spring pool every year, the hat of his cloak has long been taken off, his hair is wet and sticking to his cheeks, and his gray-purple skin is shining with water in the dim cave, like a fresh water ghost.

Qi Youfeng coughed lightly and prepared for his eardrums to tremble. After a while, the expected scream did not come.

This kid has a good psychological quality.

Qi Youfeng turned his head and saw only a pair of eyes full of surprise, staring at Niannian without blinking.

Every year, I was confused by this look. I crawled out of the water on my hands and knees. It looked like I was trying to scare people.

"Thank you for saving me!"

The little boy bowed to Qi Youfeng, ran to Nian Nian and said excitedly: "I finally found you!"

"Who are you?" After hearing this, Niannian immediately jumped up and stood up, carefully looking at the child's face.

"It doesn't matter who I am, little sister," the little boy grabbed the edge of Nian Nian's cloak, raised his head, and smiled innocently and sincerely, "let's be good friends!"

"..."

Nian Nian and Qi Youfeng looked at each other and found that the other party was confused about how to answer.

"Are you a new player? Do you know me? Are you looking for me?"

After the three questions were over, the little boy nodded three times. After thinking about it for a while, he squatted on the ground and stuffed a handful of things into the little boy's mouth. He smiled kindly and said:

"Eat this and let's talk."

Qi Youfeng shivered, that thing... looked so familiar!
