I'm a heartthrob in the wizarding world [Western Fantasy Elf]

"I must have heard correctly, right? The house elf just said that you are going to the persimmon forest." Orange Peel repeated what it just said: "You can't enter the persimmon forest from the land."

"We are going to the Persimmon Fruit Forest to inform the Winged Horse's companions that a gray Winged Horse was injured and cannot move. It is still lying on the road." Ye Qimeng explained to Orange Peel, but then thought of Orange Peel just now The question was mentioned, so he asked curiously: "But, what do you mean when you say 'You can't enter the persimmon forest from the land'?"

Logically speaking, they had just followed the guidance of the magic fireflies and should have been walking in the right direction.

Magic fireflies don’t lead you astray, pointing straight to the end.

"The entrance on land has been sealed for a long time, in order to prevent interested people from entering and destroying the order of the persimmon fruit forest. Therefore, the persimmon fruit forest now has a barrier, and the winged horses fly in from the sky." Orange Peel put down With the small oil lamp in his hand, he patiently explained the reason to them.

"Isn't there no way to notify the Winged Horse's companions? It's so late, and the other Winged Horses shouldn't be transporting persimmon fruits." Ye Qimeng was a little frustrated. Unexpectedly, after searching for a long time, he could only find no results. opposite.

Ella asked worriedly: "Master, is this little persimmon telling you that we can't go to the persimmon forest?"

On the contrary, the dog lay leisurely on the side, crossing his legs and holding his face, quietly listening to their conversation.

However, after listening to her words, Orange Peel crossed his arms and touched his chin, looking thoughtful, as if he was looking for other solutions to the problem.

It glanced at Ye Qimeng, then at the house elves Ella and Bai Quan beside her, sighed, and seemed to have made a lot of determination before speaking: "I can take you underground, but Whether you can get in or not depends on your luck.”

"That's great, let's go now! These woods are scary at night, and I don't want to be here for a second."

Ye Qimeng picked up the small oil lamp from the ground, put it into Orange Peel's little hand, and urged it to take them to the persimmon forest quickly, completely unaware of Orange Peel's hesitant eyes.

The thought of someone being able to lead the way, without them having to smear themselves to find a place, made her steps brisk, and she didn't feel the tiredness of walking for a day at all.

The underground caves are very clean and flat. They should be repaired by "people" regularly. Perhaps Orange Peel and his companions take care of these complicated roads from time to time to keep them traveling smoothly.

Unlike the woods above, due to the humid climate, the ground was covered with all kinds of strange mosses. Branches and bushes also grew wildly, blocking their way forward, but no one thought of repairing it. .

She noticed that a part of the underground space was very wide, and there were some stones that seemed to be the ruins of buildings. It made it look like an underground city that had been left for thousands of years, but it was missing some of the dwarves in fantasy movies who built magnificent palaces here. .

Orange Peel led the way, while Ella and Ye Qimeng walked side by side, holding on to the corner of her clothes for fear that she would get lost.

Ye Qimeng glanced at the slow-moving dog behind him, and silently complained in his heart: Obviously this guy is the most likely to get lost, okay?

"Make sure you don't go ahead. This place is like a maze. I'm afraid you'll slip and fall into some small hole later, and you won't be able to find your way back." She teased Gouzi.

"No, I think you are more likely to get lost. It is safer for me to go last." It paused and continued to say calmly: "So as not to spend energy looking for you later."

Ye Qimeng: "..."

As expected of her dog, he is the most sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued dog.

After they bypassed some crooked paths, a wider cave appeared in front of them.

The entrance to this cave does not seem to be as smooth as before. There are some irregular mineral crystals inlaid on the cave wall, but there is nothing strange about it. It seems to be the product of natural formation here.

But the strange thing is that there is no stain or dust on the pure white mineral crystal, but it is dim and lifeless under the oil lamp.

"It's almost here, you'd better tidy up your clothes. The guards of the Persimmon Fruit Forest will be more likely to let you in. It is said that Alexa, the owner of the Persimmon Fruit Forest, pays more attention to appearance and behavior, but she doesn't seem to like seeing outsiders."

Orange Peel was holding a small oil lamp in one hand, and with the other hand, he had already begun to smooth out the small hair on his body. But his footsteps kept moving forward, as if he was preparing for the upcoming interview.

With the help of the flickering candlelight in the small oil lamp and the flickering light of the magic fireflies, a huge stone door came into view.

Ye Qimeng raised his head and couldn't help but sigh at the hugeness of this stone door. It seemed to be a hundred meters high, very majestic and spectacular.

The stone door is carved with intricate flower patterns and strange characters. Even after the passage of time, Shimen still maintains its intact appearance and is spotless, as if it had just been built here.

Only the tangled tree roots along the edge of the stone gate hint at its long history and abandoned status.

After years of accumulation, these rough tree roots have grown over the caves in this area, and are trying to reach deeper into the dark soil to absorb more nutrients for the surface part.

There seemed to be an invisible force calling Ye Qimeng, making her approach the stone gate step by step.

With the help of the dim light, she squinted her eyes and carefully looked at the hieroglyphic-like patterns on it, and murmured to herself: "God...the gift of the gods...the condensation of magic... .place......"

"Can you understand ancient elf writing?!" Orange Peel raised his head and exclaimed.

"Ah? Can I understand this thing?"

Ye Qimeng was also confused. She didn't understand any ancient elven writing, but these pictographic patterns seemed to be alive and could automatically transmit information to her mind.

There was no time to talk too much, and there seemed to be an ancient and vicissitudes of voice suddenly coming from the darkness. It kept emerging from the ground, causing the ground under their feet to tremble together, and sand and pebbles rushed to the side. Roll down in low places.

——Who is coming?

——Where did it come from?

——Why are you here?

The sound was ethereal, as if floating in the air, but it was transmitted to everyone's ears extremely clearly. It aroused Ye Qimeng's sensitive nerves, and she felt like goosebumps were about to rise.

Orange Peel suppressed his fear and replied: "We are local residents from the outskirts of White Flame City, looking for Alexa. Her servant Winged Horse is injured and is still lying on the road. We are asked to deliver the news to you on its behalf." .”

As soon as he finished speaking, the trembling sensation on the ground disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.

After a while, the owner of the voice did not continue to speak, or there was anything else strange around him.

Orange Peel approached Ye Qimeng's feet and explained softly: "It is said that there are two very old guards inside the door. Maybe they are old and their movements are not very agile."

But she could feel the strangeness in the air. This was an instinctive intuition that had nothing to do with any magic.

Since she came to this world, it seems that not only has she gained the ability to communicate with magical creatures, but her perception in some aspects also seems to have quietly become sharper.

"Okay, they probably know it too." Gouzi said disdainfully behind her: "What era is this antique door from? It's probably difficult to open it again! We can go."

"Master, do you think we have offended them somewhere? Why is there no movement at the stone gate?" Ella guessed at the side.

Only then did Ye Qimeng realize that he had just rolled around in the woods without paying attention to his personal appearance. Now she looked down at herself with a gray face, like a thief. No wonder the owner of the persimmon grove refused to see them.

She spread out her hair rope and straightened her messy hair, and found that there was still muddy moss skin in her hair. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: She hasn't had a peaceful life since she came here.

She turned around and saw that her robe had been torn several times and was covered with unknown mud stains, turning the white robe into a gray robe.

This made her take off her dirty robe in disgust, and shook it vigorously with her hands several times, trying to shake off all the dust and stains on it.

There was a "click" sound, as if something fell to the ground.

Ye Qimeng put the cloak on her arm, lowered her head and fumbled for the dropped things with her other hand, but she touched a cold chain-like object, so she put it in front of the small orange-peel oil lamp and observed it carefully.

This is an ornament similar to a necklace, with a yellow metal sheen. The chain has a very ordinary chain structure, but the pendant is very strange. It looks like a spiral awl when viewed from top to bottom. The top of the pendant can be opened, while the interior is hollow.

"Ah, it turned out to be that drunk man's thing. I was busy running away at that time and didn't pay attention to get it back..." She remembered the origin of this thing.

However, the words are not over yet.

In an instant, strange purple light spots lit up one after another in the cave, as if receiving some unknown summons. The mineral crystals on the stone wall that were dim just now were now emitting a lavender light from within. , illuminating the whole cave clearly in the field of vision.

"Wow, what kind of scene is this? I have never seen it before..." Orange Peel's pupils shone as he sighed excitedly.

Ella and Gouzi also looked surprised, as if they were speechless.

Ye Qimeng stood up and walked towards the rock wall with the necklace, bringing it close to the sparkling mineral crystals.

She saw that there seemed to be a purple flame burning under the transparent shell of the crystal, constantly changing its shape, trying to break through the barrier and rush out, towards the pendant necklace in her hand.

And I don’t know when, the huge stone door has quietly opened a gap...

With a loud noise, the entire cave seemed to be collapsed at this moment. The ground was shaking and shaking, much more violently than before.

Ella and Gouzi found a tree root and hugged tightly, while Orange Peel rolled to Ye Qimeng's feet after swaying left and right, and held on to her feet.

Ye Qimeng's back was pressed tightly against the rock wall, and she was able to maintain her standing posture by grabbing the slender tree roots beside her with both hands. But her heart seemed to be tugged at that moment, and she couldn't breathe.

After a few seconds, the loud noise disappeared, the cave stopped shaking, and the surroundings were silent.

As if they were in another world, everyone stared blankly at the wide open stone door in front of them. A dazzling light came from the other side of the door...
