"Wait a minute, I suddenly thought of a big problem!" Ye Lin suddenly called out.

Xavier looked at him, "You mean the problem that none of us grow up."

The life of an elf is extremely long, and its growth process is naturally extremely long. For example, Xavier looks like he is only twelve or thirteen years old, but he has actually lived for more than a hundred years. He is a veritable old monster.

And Ye Lin?He was very sad to find that since he became this little lady, he has never grown even a centimeter taller.

"Although I don't know where you come from, you should obviously have a long life like me, so you haven't grown up at all in the past two years." Xavier said in a tone that I understand, Ye Lin Clenching his fists, it's not a problem that he hasn't grown up at all, he doesn't even grow up slowly like Xavier, but he will grow up eventually, he may always be like this!

"Near the tree of life, there is a kind of flower called annual rings." Xavier said softly, "Annual rings are very inconspicuous, and only elves can cultivate them, but they have a very important function, and they can quickly Turn small saplings into towering trees."

"When the nectar of the tree rings is mixed with water, you only need to water the tree a little, and one drop can make the tree grow a ring. This is the role of the tree rings at the beginning."

Ye Lin's eyes widened. What kind of flower is this? Its nectar simply violates the laws of natural growth!

Xavier squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, "A long time ago, a small amount of annual ring nectar from elves was obtained by humans. Unlike elves, humans only use this kind of thing for trees. Those black dealers use annual ring nectar to stimulate Young children and young elves, let them maintain their innocence and ignorance but maintain the most perfect adult body, and sell them at high prices to dignitaries."

Ye Lin couldn't hide the shocked expression on his face, obviously he understood what Xavier wanted to express in just a moment.

"The nectar of the tree rings was originally used to give birth to trees. Even if it can affect people, people are not as thoughtless as trees. This practice made the elves extremely angry at that time. Since then, the elves will never use the nectar of tree rings." They are sold to human beings, but human beings can do anything for greed. For this reason, there were many unpleasant battles between human beings and elves. Later, the battles gradually expanded. Flowers, but this is also one of the reasons for the outbreak of the war.” Xavier explained, “The tree rings used to grow in large areas among the elves, but after the tree of life withered, it became less and less .”

Ye Lin heard the meaning of his words, his eyes lit up and said, "Do you have it in your hand?"

Xavier looked at her for a long time before slowly nodding, "That's right, I brought a small bottle of annual ring nectar with me when I left. I thought that if I had a chance to mix in with humans, at least I would be able to slowly regenerate it every year. Years grow up and age like humans until they are 30 years old. After that, it is easier to hide, because there are many secrets to slow down aging in humans. If it is a strong human being, even after a hundred years, it can still maintain the appearance of about 30 years old. , so that it will not arouse the suspicion of human beings in the slightest."

... No wonder, when the protagonist met Xavier, he was about 30 years old in appearance.

"You're really thoughtful." Ye Lin praised him, "Without me, you wouldn't be able to gather medicines to hide your ears, and naturally you wouldn't be able to go to the human world, so you'll still have leucorrhea if you take this bottle!"

"You're right." Xavier readily admitted, and he carefully took out a small glass bottle from his arms. This bottle was only as long as Ye Lin's little finger, and the bottle was only half filled with light green liquid. , very light green, almost transparent, without any impurities, "That's all, it should be enough for the two of us to grow up to the age of 20."

Listening to him counting the two of them together, Ye Lin finally felt at ease, and a smile appeared on the corners of his eyes and brows. The smile on his current clean and flawless face is a bit lethal. If he is a real boy of twelve or thirteen years old, I'm afraid I've been dazzled for a long time, but Xavier is not an ordinary boy after all, so it's just that his green eyes deepened, and his expression didn't show the slightest uncomfortable look, at least Ye Lin didn't notice it until Ye Lin turned his head away. He lowered his eyes quietly.

Ever since Ye Lin learned a little common language, it was always Ye Lin who went to the town to supply supplies, because a child with a beautiful appearance like a little girl is always cheaper and will not arouse suspicion from others, even if he looks like those villagers who never They will also treat her warmly with white hair and black eyes that they have never seen before.

After the two had eaten the simple food, they headed towards the location of the last material. On the way, Xavier couldn't help asking: "Your race is still really strange. How can it grow as slowly as the elves? It's obviously The appearance of a human being..."

Ye Lin rolled his eyes, "What is my race! I am a human being!"

"Although I heard that the real nobles of the Lancastle Empire are all black-haired and black-eyed, but I have seen one from afar, who looks different from you." Perhaps because he was about to be able to go out, Xavier's mood It's exceptionally good, the guy who usually can't gossip a day has become very talkative, "He looks like those ordinary townspeople, except that his hair and eyes are black."

Ye Lin understood. He had heard that the pure-blooded nobles in this world had black hair and black eyes, and he was a little excited, thinking that although those villagers looked like Westerners, the background of this world also resembled Western sword and magic. The world, but the ruler is not an oriental, but listening to what Xavier said, it is obvious that he thinks too much. Although those people also have black hair and black eyes, they are not the black hair and black eyes of the orientals, but the appearance of the westerners , but the hair color and eye color are black.

It is precisely because only pure-bred nobles have black hair and black eyes, Ye Lin was afraid that he would be too eye-catching after going out, so he changed his hair color to white, but it still looks conspicuous...

So he curled his lips, "That means their blood is not pure!" Just like a half-breed with black hair and black eyes, hum!

Thinking about it this way, the sense of loss immediately disappeared, and suddenly I felt much more comfortable.

Xavier seemed to nod suddenly, "That's right."

"Where are we going after we go out?" Ye Lin quickly changed the subject. If this guy asked about his race or blood, he really didn't know how to fool him.

Xavier paused, "Where are you going?"

Ye Lin frowned, "Could it be that you've been thinking about going out for so long, but never thought about where you're going?"

"I've never been to the human world." Xavier didn't turn his head, his voice was muffled, "All I know is from those hunters, black dealers, and occasional explorers who went deep into the jungle What I heard from my mouth, and what I know from the records of the elves."

Ye Lin was speechless, it seems that this guy is also a bumpkin who knows nothing about the outside world!

"Based on our current age, where is the most suitable place?" Ye Lin looked at Xavier with great disdain, and where could the two children go out, "Of course it is school! "

Xavier stopped completely at this moment, "I have heard of two schools. An explorer once boasted that his cousin's son went to the best school. It seems to be called Brabham. There was a safari who said that he would send his children to Beresford in the future."

Ye Lin waved his hand, "Don't worry about this, we have to figure out a solution after we go out. The problem is, the two of us must be black households if we go out like this. We need to get the identity and household registration first, and then talk about other things."

Xavier nodded, "I've thought about this, but if you're going to school, well, you need to think about it again—" The sternness in his eyes flashed away, but Ye Lin was thinking sideways, not at all. never noticed.

Xavier stopped suddenly in the middle of his speech, made a "shh" gesture to Ye Lin, and tiptoely led him to hide behind a bush on one side. Sure enough, a faint voice came over, and this That's why Ye Lin thinks this ally is sometimes useful. This guy has always been commendable in terms of hearing and eyesight.

It's a black dealer!Xavier's mouth told him so.

This guy's judgment in this aspect has never been missed. He has lived in the forest for too long, and he only needs to listen to the beginning to judge which category the person belongs to.

Ye Lin nodded, squatting down and disappearing as soon as he touched his leg with the sword in his hand. There was a dusty ring around his right ankle. It was a simple space ring, which was originally put on by a black dealer. On the wrist, black dealers usually have this kind of extremely simple space items, including rings, bracelets, necklaces, etc. These space items are no more than one cubic meter in size, and it is very simple to establish contact with them. Just drop a drop of blood in the old fashioned way , once the original owner dies, this connection is automatically terminated, and the spatial object immediately becomes an unowned item.

In this world, although space items are not overwhelmed, they are not particularly rare, but the bigger the space, the price will double up. The price of ordinary space items used by black dealers is about ten gold coins. Left and right, with the meager wealth of Xavier and Ye Lin, this is already a very valuable thing, and these black dealers often store some of their harvest in their space, often giving them some unexpected income.

Yes, in the past two years, what Xavier and Ye Lin often did was cheating.

It's a pity that this forest is not rich, and few high-end black dealers come here, so their business is not so easy to do.

Black dealers are actually just a general term. They often call themselves a businessman. They buy the hard-earned fruits of hunters at extremely low prices. It is common for them to buy and suppress prices. They are interested in everything that can be sold. Ye Lin once heard an explorer complain to his companions that his daughter was abducted by black traffickers.Occasionally, these people would also go to the forest to find some precious materials and furs. They would often hire a whole team of mercenaries.

Seeing it with his own eyes and hearing it with his own ears, Ye Lin had long since lost sympathy for these black dealers, none of them had a thick layer of blood on their hands.

The voice of speaking is getting closer, Ye Lin has already changed his clothes in an instant, the clothes he rubbed and printed, even if it is the simplest set, it seems that it is definitely not ordinary, not to mention the texture, just the accessories and inlays, Enough to catch the eye.

"We've walked this way twice! It doesn't seem to be in this direction."

Xavier entered the scene faster than Ye Lin, and he very much suspected that this guy was not an elf known for his kindness and simplicity.

Well, judging from the facts of this story, not only is this guy nothing to do with kindness and simplicity, it can even be said to be the complete opposite. A lunatic who is anti-human, anti-social and aims to destroy the world can be compared with such a beautiful adjective as kindness and simplicity. what is the relationship?

Lenny Askew, a big businessman in Bit City, was troubled when he heard this voice. Logically, in his capacity, he didn’t have to go to this remote place in person, but this time the customer is too important, and the things are even more important. There is no room for loss, even if I leave it to my confidant to do it, I am not so relieved. After all, I decided to go out in person. Only when I got here did I find that the place is worse than imagined. Lenny, who is used to rich clothes and good food, has not been there for several days. I can have a good rest.

But out of the amazing intuition of a businessman, as soon as he heard the sound, he immediately signaled the mercenaries who were chatting to silence. When he got closer, in his eyes, it was a beautiful girl of eleven or twelve years old and a man in a cloak. The eyes of the twelve or thirteen-year-old boy who only showed a handsome face suddenly lit up.

The little girl!He couldn't help but "hiss" softly, it's been a long time since he saw such a good thing!

Although judging from the extremely arrogant expression on her face at this time, the little girl's temper is obviously not very good, but it doesn't matter, there are always people who will not mind such a small defect in the goods, after all, such a face is really rare!She has pure black eyes, snow-like hair, white and smooth skin, and a slender and flexible figure. Although she is still young, she already reveals a bit of peerless beauty. She looks so distinctive and good-looking!

Hmm, looks like it can fetch a pretty high price?

Lenny's eyes suddenly became hot, wait a minute, the boy behind her is not bad!I was attracted by the little girl just now. Although the boy looks timid, he looks really good. Many people like such a pair of green eyes...

He began to quickly calculate the list of regular customers who can patronize this business in his mind, and then his face was wrinkled with a smile, and he said in the most kind and gentle voice, "Is this lady lost?"

Ye Lin's face turned black, you are the miss, and your whole family is a miss!
