Xiao Tianjian asked anxiously: "Ludlow was injured? How could this happen?!" Thinking that the son he had not yet recognized had silver hair, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
But Fnoya could still remain calm: "That's not Ludlow's blood, his blood is red." She glanced at her old lover with a complicated expression, "This is the only thing that makes him different from the elves. "
His son was bleeding bright red like him, and this realization made Xiao Tianjian feel happy. He didn't know why he had such an idea at this time. He shook his head and calmed down a little: "Who did it? When did it happen? Who are those mercenaries?"
"They are your kind, don't you know it at all?" Luvana still sounded mean.
Xiao Tianjian couldn't help but glare when he heard this: "What do you think I will do to my son?! If I want to harm you elves, why should I spend so much effort to help you annihilate the snowfield monsters?!"
Luvana choked and looked away. She had never been used to looking at human beings, and was used to sarcastic remarks towards them. Xiao Tianjian rarely retorted, but she didn't expect that today she would hit a brick wall.
Xiao Tianjian ignored her and turned to Lao Qiao. As the actual controller of Phantom Town, this old friend must know the details.
Lao Qiao was worried about the presence of the elves before and did not say anything. Seeing Xiao Tianjian taking the initiative to ask, he replied: "It happened yesterday. Those human mercenaries are strangers and have no knowledge of the precious herbs and birds and animals in the forest." They were not interested and refused to say who introduced them here. They would just wander around and pester people to chat. I asked, they were either asking about where the elves lived, or they wanted someone to take them into the forest, and they also asked about the forest. Is there anything mysterious about them? They didn't look like good people, so everyone ignored them, and they simply started to take advantage of children and young people. A few of us were afraid of something happening, so we asked them to leave. They refused at first and saw us. I had a tough attitude and agreed. But they suddenly disappeared without even paying the rent. I thought they had really left, but I didn't expect to find the blood stains when I was cleaning the room. I immediately went to check on the people in the town, and it turned out Only the little prince is missing."
Lucien calmly finished the conversation: "As soon as the patrol team received the report, they sealed off the entire border. At this time, the station also discovered that two children were missing. They were playing in the forest half a day ago. We are here Signs of struggle were found in the last place where they stayed. Now we only know that they have not left the scope of the Elf Forest, but those human mercenaries were so cunning that they left almost no clues."
Lao Qiao nodded and said to Xiao Tianjian: "Xiao, those people are veterans. We don't know their purpose, let alone why they kidnapped the child, but they have blocked the little prince and Ming Na several times before, then The look in his eyes makes people sick."
Xiao Tianjian's face was already livid at this time: "They have taken the courage of a leopard, and they dare to... dare to take advantage of my son..."
Fonaya's face turned pale, and she said to him calmly: "Xiao, you are a human and have been a mercenary. You must know their habits very well. I need your help. As long as you can rescue three people safely, Child, I...I will never blame you again." Her voice was trembling.
Xiao Tianjian hurriedly said: "Why do you have to say that? Ludlow is also my son, of course I will save him."
Fonaya shook her head: "Not only him, but also the other two children, they are equally important."
Xiao Tianjian did not agree with this statement, but at this time, he would not say anything more, so he turned back to his granddaughter and said: "Mingna, grandpa is going to rescue Xiaola. You just wait here for me to come back. Don't run around. do you know?"
After listening for so long, Mingna knew that the matter was serious, and solemnly said to her grandfather: "Grandpa is going to rescue Xiaola, and you all will be safe."
Xiao Tianjian smiled and touched her head, then turned to Fonaya and said, "Please bring food over regularly. This child is still young." Fonaya nodded: "I understand." After a pause, he added: "Lucien will go with you."
Xiao Tianjian looked at his former love rival with a cold face and felt a little unhappy in his heart. However, Lucien was far more familiar with the Elf Forest than he was. Saving his son was more important now. En and Lao Qiao left together.
As soon as they left, Fonaya swayed, as if she had lost all her strength, and sat down softly on the chair. Luvana hurriedly supported her: "Princess, are you okay?"
Fnoya shook her head, but her tears fell like broken pearls: "Ludlow..."
Ming Na looked sad and said hurriedly: "Xiao La will be fine. My grandpa is the most powerful. No one can be his opponent." Although he had suffered losses from Warcraft, they were Warcraft and not humans.
Luvana ignored her and only comforted Fnoya. The latter slowly wiped away the tears on her face and smiled reluctantly at Mingna: "My child, I hope things are as you said..." After that, she held on. He left with the help of Luvana.
Ming Na was the only one left in the room. She looked around and suddenly felt a little cold.
Will Xiaola be okay? What do those bad guys want to do? They are really annoying. Will Grandpa successfully rescue Xiaola? Why does she always feel like something bad is going to happen
In order to forget these thoughts, she decided to find something to do to pass the time. But just now they were about to set off back to Phantom Town. Almost all their luggage was in Xiao Tianjian's storage ring. She only had a few changes of clothes and some sundries on her body. The potions and magic textbooks were all left in the inn and she didn't bring them. What could she do
This tree house was Xiao Tianjian's old residence twenty years ago. Only furniture and some old daily necessities are left in the house. When Xiao Tianjian came to exterminate the monsters, he acted with the elves and did not return here until he was injured. Therefore, The house was simply cleaned. Ming Na rummaged around, but she found some old pots and pans, old quilts, old clothes, and a few books.
One of those books had many illustrations, which seemed to belong to the elves. Minna had seen a similar book at Ludlow's, but she couldn't understand the elven language on it, so she just looked at the pictures and threw it away. to the side.
There was also a small book made of parchment, which was written in a kind of writing she had never seen before. It was like squares, very complicated, and somewhat like pictures. Judging from the format of these words, it looks a bit like the diary that my mother often wrote. Could this be my grandfather's previous diary
Putting the things away, she felt a little hungry. The elves did bring food, but after putting their things down, they left without saying a word, let alone revealing the progress of finding the person.
All the fruits are delivered. In the north where the weather is getting colder, just eating these is not enough to keep you warm. Ming Na followed the method she had learned before, boiling water in an old pot and occasionally throwing fruits in it, but the taste was not very good.
She accidentally discovered a finger-sized fish in the creek. Its body was almost transparent, and the bright red backbone could be seen inside. Thinking that he had not eaten meat for a long time, he splashed in the water for a long time, finally caught two, threw them into the pot, and cooked a little fish soup.
The fish soup was very fragrant, but it was a pity that it had no taste because she had no salt. However, it is still very happy to be able to eat hot soup on a howling autumn night. She began to feel that she could take care of herself even without her grandfather.
In the middle of the night, she was woken up by the pain. It felt like there was a fire burning in her stomach. The pain made her life and death. Her body was alternately hot and cold, and she kept breaking out in cold sweats. Is she sick
Tightly wrapped in layers of sheets, she bit her lip and endured the pain. She couldn't help but cry out, but no one heard her cry. I don’t know how long it took, but it seemed that the sky outside turned white and then black, and then black and white again. When Ming Na finally woke up from her coma, the clothes she was originally wearing had been changed, and there was a new bag of new clothes on the table. Fruit delivered.
She felt limp, but her stomach no longer hurt, but it was growling. She hurriedly stuffed a few fruits down, but she was wondering in her heart: Why hasn't grandpa come back yet? Did he rescue Xiaola
===================== I am the dividing line that changes the perspective =====================
Xiao Tianjian's search and rescue operations have not been smooth. Those mercenaries were indeed veterans, and it was impossible to find any trace of them. If the elves hadn't guarded the border and made sure they were still within the forest, he almost thought they had escaped successfully.
On the third day after Ludlow and the elves disappeared, Xiao Tianjian and Lucien received a message from the Elf Station. Unfortunately, one of the elves died. The light of the soul had returned to the mother tree. His parents were extremely grieved. More elves Join the search. The half-elves were under great pressure because they failed to discover the evil deeds of the villains in time, so they all went out to search back and forth on the border of the forest.
Xiao Tianjian became even more anxious. Although his youngest son looked like an elf, he was not an elf after all. If there was something wrong with him, he might not be able to return to the mother tree like the dead elf and live for several years or decades. , and was born again. He searched faster and more carefully. In order to spend more time looking for someone, he didn't even sleep.
Huangtian paid off, and when they were searching deep into the eastern part of the forest, Lucien accidentally discovered knotted weeds. Although it is not obvious, it is Ludlow's unique talent. Xiao Tianjian listened to Lucien's words and quickly followed the grass knot with him, slowly finding a place less than two kilometers east of the Elf King City, and finally found the traces of the mercenaries.
Ludlow and the other elf were fine, but looked a little weak. There were five mercenaries in total, and they were very tightly guarded, making it difficult to find a loophole.
But both Xiao Tianjian and Lucien were very confident in their abilities, and the rescue operation began soon. At dawn, when the mercenaries were all sleeping, Lucien hid behind a tree and shot the first arrow, killing one of them. But the sound of arrows piercing the air woke up the other four people. They quickly spread out the children and hid behind the surrounding trees, and pulled the children in front of them to act as human shields.
Xiao Tianjian sneaked behind them, killed one of them silently, and then approached the person who held his son hostage.
However, the black-toothed man was quite powerful and quickly noticed his movements and pulled Ludlow away. Xiao Tianjian recognized that he was the leader of the five demons who were famous for their brutality among the mercenaries. He screamed in his heart and wanted to find an opportunity to subdue him, but he was unable to do so because he was worried about the dagger that was always placed on his son's neck. Come on, after Lucien rescued the elf, there was still a stalemate on his side.
"Let the child go. As long as you don't resist, we won't kill you." Xiao Tianjian said, "Elves don't like killing."
The black-toothed man grinned: "Are you kidding?" He glanced at the corpse of his companion on the ground, and then quickly looked away, "Put down the sword in your hand and stand back, or I will cut this little darling's throat!" After that! He also pressed the dagger against the child's neck, and a trace of blood immediately appeared on Ludlow's neck. The young half-elf raised his eyes to look at Xiao Tianjian and pursed his lips tightly.
Xiao Tianjian felt anxious and hesitated for a moment before slowly placing the sword on the ground, but keeping his eyes on the black-toothed man. He still has a lot of swords in the ring, one less is okay, but how can he save the child
When the black-toothed man saw that his sword had left his hand, he felt happy. He dragged the child back and motioned for the other living companion to follow. At this moment, an arrow was shot from behind, knocking the sword out of his hand. The dagger was caught in the grass under his feet and he could not move. Ludlow took the opportunity to break away and was about to run forward, but unexpectedly, the black-toothed man became fierce and clamped his big hand around his neck. The thick knuckles showed how powerful its owner was. It only takes a moment to break the child's slender neck.
Xiao Tianjian was so anxious that he no longer cared about holding the sword. He rushed over, grabbed the black-toothed man's hand, pressed the opponent's body tightly, and punched that hateful face. Although he is famous for his swordsmanship, he has also learned boxing. In terms of fist strength, he is no worse than others.
But his opponent this time was not easy to deal with. Although he was hit by that punch and his eyes were filled with stars, he took the opportunity to push his knees up, intending to hit Xiao Tianjian's chest hard, but he noticed it and quickly avoided it. The black-toothed man wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but was kicked by Xiao Tianjian again and fell to the ground. The two started fighting.
When Lao Qiao and other elves arrived and tied up the other mercenary, the fight here was almost over. Xiao Tianjian's head and face were covered with bruises, and the corners of his mouth were cut. Moreover, because his hands and feet had been raised again, the injuries that had not fully healed had been triggered again. His leg bones were hurting again, and his chest was feeling tight. However, Hei Qian looked even more miserable than him. The man, however, was in a very happy mood and added a few more words: "I told you to take advantage of my son! I asked you to take advantage of my son!"
Ludlow stared blankly at him going crazy, and was soon hugged away.
Lao Qiao pulled Xiao Tianjian down: "Don't beat the person to death, we still have to question him." Xiao Tianjian let him go, but immediately felt severe pain in his right leg. Qiao helped himself find a place to apply medicine and rest.
After checking that both Ludlow and the elf had only superficial injuries, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Lucien quickly led people to interrogate the two mercenaries. At Xiao Tianjian's suggestion, they interrogated the two men separately, and the results of the interrogation were shocking.
"Treasure? Where did the treasure come from in the Elf Forest?" Xiao Tianjian couldn't help but be stunned after hearing the results of the interrogation, "Why are there such rumors?"
