"You...what's going on?"
Zhang Feng just saw that the elves seemed to value the ancient trees very much, so he decided to cater to their preferences and emphasized the two ancient trees.
How could he suddenly awaken the ancient tree? Putting aside the question of whether the ancient tree really had consciousness, even if it did, Zhang Feng didn't know how to communicate with it!
He doesn't understand the language of trees! He talks to the trees about the zither!
"I think... you must have misunderstood. What I just said was not what I actually saw or felt, but what I imagined in my mind... In fact, I can't communicate with ancient trees. I don't have this ability, so I'm sorry..."
Zhang Feng quickly explained.
Bragging is one thing, but if you can't do it, you can't do it. Zhang Feng will not make promises about things that he can't do.
"This old woman is worthy of having lived for thousands of years! She has become a spirit!"

"Zhang Feng, can we really wake up the ancient tree?"
"Uh, well, who helped me take off my clothes yesterday?"
"This is not a question of benefit or not—"
"Yes, sir."
When Zhang Feng and his companions arrived, all the elves stood up to greet them and were very polite.
“Good wine!”
Nora shrugged.
Before Nora finished her words, the elf next to her came over to pour wine for Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng spoke with some surprise.
Zhang Feng felt that it was time for him to go to the modern world to learn from others. Although many things in the two worlds were different, there might be something worth learning from them.
Perhaps fearing that Zhang Feng would not believe it, Nora explained: "Mr. Zhang Feng may not understand very well. We used to wear clothes made of cloth, and they were very beautiful. But because of the passage of time, they all rotted, and there was no new cloth delivered, so we used leaves to cover our bodies."
"As long as Mr. Zhang Feng can awaken the ancient tree, I will agree to anything you ask me to do~"
Zhang Feng explained with a wry smile, but before he finished speaking, he heard Nora continue:
In fact, they didn't think Zhang Feng could do it, but Zhang Feng just described it vividly, and the village chief spoke excitedly, so they subconsciously thought that Zhang Feng could do it.
I just finished praising her! Then it was Caroline, the wolf-eared girl, the fox-eared girl, and finally the little red dragon couldn't hold on.
"Oh? To a banquet?"
But Zhang Feng didn't ask any more questions. Knowing these secrets was enough.
Baijiu is obviously spicy, how can it be sweet? Zhang Feng, who doesn't like drinking, muttered to himself.
"Um?"
Before Zhang Feng had time to think about whether what she said was true or not, Nora left with a smile.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Zhang Feng."
"Ms. Nora, I want to know something about the ancient tree. I hope you can tell me the truth. This is very important for me to awaken the ancient tree."
Everyone looked at her with some confusion.
They arrived at the village chief's house. It was still the same hall as before, but there were many tables. The high-level elves were all there. Nora sat in the main seat in the front, Nancy was on her right, and then Liz and other elders came in turn.
After all, the ancient tree is not a human being. Zhang Feng doesn’t even know where its brain is. How can he wake it up?
Nora smiled.
The above is what Nora told Zhang Feng about the ancient war tree.
only--
Zhang Feng actually doesn't like drinking. He doesn't like the smell of alcohol, nor does he like the bitter taste of alcohol. But this fruit wine is different. Not only is the alcohol taste very light, but it also tastes sweet! It must be a low-alcohol wine.
The lollipops were given to her by the Fox-Eared Girl. Although she was usually quite sharp-tongued, she was still very generous to her own people. She had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. These were lollipops specially customized for her by Zhang Feng. Although she was reluctant to give them away, she finally gave three of them to Hill.
"Ahem, that's not the case. It's about serious business."
"No...but..."
Of course, the elves of Nora's clan are not warlike, and these two ancient war trees are more used for defense.
Wow, this smile... is so big! Oh no, it's really white, no, it should be really attractive!
Zhang Feng was still not satisfied.
Noila elegantly put the clothes beside Zhang Feng's bed and was about to leave. Zhang Feng said with some hesitation:
It smells just a little bit like the food.
"Then I'll put it here."
The elves were a little confused, and Nora even covered her face. They thought these people could drink a lot, but in the end, without anyone to persuade them to drink, they all drank.
They didn't even know whether the ancient war tree had died.
"As long as Lord Zhang Feng agrees to help, we won't blame you whether it succeeds or not!"
It was getting dark, and Zhang Feng suddenly heard the voice of an elf outside the door.
The reason why they had to wake up the ancient tree was not only because they had feelings for this ancient tree that had protected their lineage, but also because of one most important reason, which was the function of the ancient tree.
Everyone felt a little embarrassed.
Zhang Feng: “…”
“Yes, although I now have some sense of this human being, I still think that it is too difficult for him to awaken the ancient tree master!”
"...Then I'm at a huge disadvantage!"
Judging from the elf's appearance, he should believe in his promise... right?
Zhang Feng said this very calmly. He didn't say anything. Discovering that there were no insects was also a discovery.
If he rashly agreed to this and failed to complete it in the end, not to mention whether the elves would turn against each other, Zhang Feng himself would not agree. After all, "a promise is worth a thousand gold" has always been his motto! Zhang Feng was tangled.
Everyone: “…”
"Village Chief, can we really trust this human?"
“I don’t dare!”
Zhang Feng nodded, he had the same idea.
We have to start with the supernatural power from another world.
The fox-eared girl sat next to Zhang Feng, and her big furry tail swept across Zhang Feng's cheek from time to time.
In fact, if it were someone else, Nora would not be so blind to believe him. After all, he has lived for so many years, even if he is a piece of wood, he has become a spirit!
"Hehe, I think you are attracted by those elf beauties!"
Nora said a little excitedly.
And this sweetness is real sweetness, not the kind that wine lovers say white wine tastes sweet when they drink it.
"Okay! Then I'll start with the age of the ancient tree..."
He tried another dish.
"They are hungry."
There aren't many people in Yueyin Village, but many big forces dare not provoke it, and a big reason for this is because of these two ancient trees.
Zhang Feng swallowed involuntarily, but ultimately he couldn't say the words of refusal.
Zhang Feng didn't expect that these vegetarian dishes were unexpectedly delicious!
"How is it possible? How is it possible that a dragon would follow a human?"
"It's okay, I'll study it further..."
“This… no need!”
"Nancy, what do you think?"
Its exterior is indestructible, but its interior is hollow. The two ancient trees are enough for all the elves of this lineage to live in. The ancient trees are rooted in the ground and can provide endless energy to the elves inside. The elves are good at bows and arrows, so this combination is simply a mobile war fortress!
Nora regained her dignified and elegant appearance, but the words she spoke were as seductive as her figure and appearance.
"Mr. Zhang Feng, I have prepared new clothes for you. Do you need me to teach you how to wear them?"
The fox-eared girl encouraged.
"Eh, it seems that there really isn't one...but that doesn't mean she's a dragon, does it?"
"Mr. Zhang Feng, please take a seat."
Zhang Feng looked around the ancient tree. There were no pests or bird nests on it. Obviously, they had some method or talent to repel insects.
Although the hand feels good, but there are so many people watching! Especially with Fox Ears Girl, the jealous little girl here, Zhang Feng can even smell the sourness!
"Mr. Zhang Feng, according to your human language, the conditions can be negotiated... I swear here that if Mr. Zhang Feng can awaken the ancient tree master, our Yueyin Village will serve Mr. Zhang Feng for 500 years! And Mr. Zhang Feng can put forward three conditions to me. As long as they do not harm the interests of our Yueyin Village, no matter what the conditions are, I will agree to them!"
However, no one had any experience in this area and ultimately failed to come up with a feasible solution.
"And we've never seen a dragon in human form!"
"Mr. Zhang Feng, please speak."
"If I heard you correctly, you just said that the ancient tree was hungry?"
"Have you seen the little girl Hill next to Zhang Feng?"
Everyone: “…”
The bark of the tree is covered with deep wrinkles, and you can tell at a glance that it has been alive for many years.
Anyway, what I have said has been made clear. Even if I fail, the other party will not blame me.
"I, I can still drink..."
Zhang Feng rushed over and hugged Hill excitedly.
Zhang Feng was in a dilemma. He was really tempted by Nora's conditions, but the problem was that he didn't know how to awaken the ancient tree!
They had come to the Sunset Mountains a long time ago, and the two ancient war trees naturally followed them - yes, the ancient war trees can walk! And they are not slow!
"Then why did you strip me so clean? Did you get my clothes wet?"
Since Zhang Feng agreed to help, Nora didn't want to waste a moment.
Although he had looked and touched, Zhang Feng still had no idea how to wake up the ancient tree.
"Mm~ It's delicious too! I didn't expect that the food of the elves would be so delicious! This can be said to be the most delicious food I have ever eaten, no doubt about it!"
But it was also because she had lived for a long time that she had never seen anyone in her life who could always bring a giant dragon with him! Zhang Feng was the first! So she had an inexplicable trust in Zhang Feng. After all, if a creature as powerful as a giant dragon believed in Zhang Feng, what reason did she have to doubt him?
"No matter whether this thing can be accomplished or not, Hill, you have helped me a lot. Just tell me what you want, and I will definitely try my best to satisfy you!"
Nora held Zhang Feng's hand a little harder, and it was obvious that she was still very excited.
The elves shook their heads again.
Of course, this is all based on the premise that the ancient tree can absorb the mysterious power. As for whether it can absorb it, we will know after trying it tomorrow!
Hill, who had been licking a fox head lollipop, suddenly spoke up.
As a "wizard" himself, he has a lot to say about this mysterious power. The most primitive mysterious power is a kind of spiritual energy.
Zhang Feng praised generously.
However, after so many years in Sunset Mountains, they still haven't found anything. Instead, their ancient war tree has a problem! First, it became very weak, so weak that it could only transmit some intermittent consciousness, and it was difficult to communicate. When Nora was looking for a cure, the ancient war tree became completely unable to communicate!
…
Zhang Feng said while pulling the quilt.
After a quick meal in the morning, Zhang Feng found Nora again.
For example, the mysterious power in Zhang Feng’s body is a very primitive mysterious power when it is not used. After it is used, it becomes the power of alchemy, which is already a material power.
When Nora saw Zhang Feng fell silent, she thought that Zhang Feng was not satisfied with the conditions she proposed, so she took a deep breath and said:
Nora said seductively.
As soon as he said this, most of the elves were a little disappointed.
The elf next to him received Nora's signal and added another cup for Zhang Feng.
His relationship with the elves is pretty good for now, so it would be hard for him to refuse if they wanted to invite him.
Although the Sunset Mountains were also very dangerous at that time, the supplies there were also very abundant. It was not like now, where you couldn't even find the heads of small animals that you could eat.
…
So if we can send these primitive mysterious powers to the ancient trees, can we awaken them?
After all, what the ancient tree lacks is spiritual energy, and the original mysterious power is also spiritual energy. Thinking about it this way, it is feasible! Zhang Feng's face was suddenly excited. Perhaps for other witches, it is difficult to transfer the original mysterious power in their bodies to others, and there is no way to pass on power in this world.
"It's me."
But for Zhang Feng, it couldn't be easier.
However, when it comes to supernatural powers, the first thing Zhang Feng thinks of is witches.
This can form a perfect complement with the orcs who are good at close combat!
His main purpose now is not to wake up the ancient tree, but to think about how to communicate with it! She needs to know where the ancient tree's consciousness is. Otherwise, how can he wake it up when he can't even find the door of such a big tree? "Hey, the main thing is that I don't know what happened to the ancient tree. Is it suffering from Alzheimer's disease? Or is it asleep? Or is it injured? I don't know these-"
Nora: “…”
"Well, Zhang Feng, I believe you!"
"Yes, it doesn't seem very reliable..."
Zhang Feng and everyone quickly started talking.
She did not stop Zhang Feng's actions, but said with a strange look on her face: "You didn't ask me. Besides, I only saw the consciousness of the ancient trees, but I can't wake them up..."
Outside the door, Nora walked in with a stack of green things.
After cutting off a small piece of mushroom, Zhang Feng tasted it and his eyes immediately lit up.
"No problem, you can tell me anytime you have thought it through!"
Zhang grabbed the tail and stroked it in his hand.
Zhang Feng put Hill down, his face was troubled for a moment, and then he was full of confidence again.
Nora did not keep anyone in suspense. Although she had absolute say here, she still had to explain.
After politely sending Zhang Feng back, the high-level elves of Yueyin Village gathered in the village chief's house.
But out of politeness, he had to eat something.
“…”
"Well... that's right. Just seeing consciousness is not enough. We have to awaken them..."
In her opinion, Zhang Feng must have many magical qualities, otherwise the orcs and dragons would not follow him. As long as he agreed, it must be possible! What Feng said was nothing more than modesty!
"Because I saw it. The consciousness of the ancient tree is like... like a small flame. It is very small, but very tenacious. I estimate that it may completely disappear in another two thousand years."
"good."
"Haha, I know you will question my decision, but I have my reasons!"
"Another one!"
Because he has the mysterious crystal!
Nora: “…”
"!!!"
Zhang Feng looked at everyone and nodded.
"How is that possible? I'm that kind of person! Huh?"
Nancy shook her head.
Zhang Feng could barely understand some of the other abilities, but he really couldn't understand the witch's mysterious power. However, even if he didn't understand it, it was fine as long as he could use it.
"have no idea."
Zhang Feng had a good sleep. He had never slept so comfortably before.
"Mr. Zhang Feng, shall I take you to visit the ancient trees?"
"Mr. Zhang Feng, you are awake now. Are you feeling unwell again?"
"Another one!"
"W-why do you know that?"
The fox-eared girl's tone was a little sour.
Zhang Feng patted his chest and assured.
"Well... I have discovered something, but it's far from enough. I'll think about it when I get back..."
Nora let go of her hand without leaving any trace. There was no embarrassment on her face. She seemed very natural, worthy of being an old monster who had lived for many years.
Then--
“…”
"Yes, did you make a mistake?"
Zhang Feng actually doesn’t like to eat vegetarian food. After all, he ate enough of it when he was a child in an orphanage. He still prefers to eat meat. The food that Nancy brought before is still kept in the house.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Nora's face, and the elves who were secretly looking at Zhang Feng also breathed a sigh of relief. With such a long lifespan, they always needed something to pass the time, and cooking was one of them. Even if it was a pig that cooked for thousands of years, it must be at the chef level, not to mention the dexterous elves!
"Mr. Zhang Feng, the village chief invites you to a banquet. I hope Mr. Zhang Feng will not refuse."
"No, I'm sure I'm not seeing things! Let me ask you first, you're not younger than me, have you ever seen an orc like this in all these years?"
"Thank you very much."
"Shit, where are my clothes!"
Nora wanted to say something, but didn't say it in the end. Judging from Zhang Feng's appearance, he should be able to drink a lot. As long as he can drink, Nora is not a stingy person.
However, everyone finally believed that the old tree was not dead, because in the previous fragments, the old tree said that he was going to fall into a deep sleep. The elves would not avoid the word death, so the sleep that the old tree said should be real sleep, and they chose to believe the old tree.
Zhang Feng clenched his fist and said.
Zhang Feng laughed, then turned to Hill and said:
It was difficult to communicate before, but we could still communicate after all. But now we can’t get in touch directly!
"I'm sorry Zhang Feng..."
Hill wanted to ask for a cake as big as a castle. Last time she asked for this, Zhang Feng didn't agree to her request. This time was her chance. But then she thought, chocolate is delicious too! Do you want a chocolate the size of a castle? But lollipops are also delicious, so she wants a lollipop the size of a castle? Hill was in a dilemma.
"Oh, Mr. Zhang Feng, I'm sorry, I'm just a little too excited!"
"Okay, I admit that I am interested in these elves. Don't you think that if they fight together with the orcs, one for close combat and the other for ranged attack, wouldn't it be very powerful? If they can have an auxiliary, they will be invincible!"
"Then, let me give it a try? I will do my best to accomplish what I have promised, but to be honest, I am not very sure about awakening the ancient tree. However, it seems that you elves need it very much, and I am a soft-hearted person, so I want to give it a try. Of course, let me make it clear first that I may not succeed. If I fail, don't blame me..."
没想到,人类之中,还有这么谦卑的人! 对于人类的偏见,或许要改一改了……
“大家商量商量,如何才能唤醒古树!”
希尔一脸理所当然地说道。
“不过这已经是一个不小进步了,既然希尔说对方是因为饿的、或者说是能量不足,那我们就按照这个方向研究,也不至于像个无头苍蝇乱转了,先搞清楚它们需要什么再说!”
神秘水晶里蕴含着丰富的神秘之力! “今天,我再好好思考、模拟一下,确定没有问题后,明天再行动!”
众人越听越震惊。
现在听到张枫的解释,她们有些失落的同时,也有些释然,做不到很正常,毕竟这是她们精灵们自己的古树,她们都沟通不了,一个外族人更不可能了! 但诺拉不这么想,如果是别人这样说,她或许会信,但是你一个能获得巨龙追随的人类,肯定不能用常理的眼光来看待。
“看见了。”
“咳咳,谢谢你的信任,不过,你可以放手了吗?”
毕竟刚刚还说得那么真实,现在又说是假的了,真当她这么多年是白活的了! “张枫先生,我知道你们人类的规矩,我不会让您白帮忙的,我们会付出一定的利益!”
本来他是根本没有考虑到这些精灵的,毕竟人家实力强大,又有实物,也没有什么危险,凭什么跟张枫走? 现在有这个机会,虽然渺茫,张枫自然不能放过。
更不要说,她们还都那么养眼,听说多看美女能长寿呢!
诺拉斩钉截铁道。
众人连道不敢,不过对于诺拉的理由,她们还是很好奇的。
众精灵点头。
“三百……咕噜~”
于是精灵们只能寻找办法等待古树的醒来,这么多年来,能试的办法都试过了,古树依旧没有醒来。
“张枫先生不知道还需要什么帮助?就算你想让我提前兑现诺言,也不是不可以哦~”
“如果张枫先生能帮助我们唤醒古树大人,你将会是我们月隐村永远的朋友,同时我们月隐村愿意为张枫先生效力三百年!”
张枫有些尴尬的开口。
只有吸收并且使用出来之后,才能转化为自己所需要的力量。
瞬间眼睛一亮。
“啊这……”
“酿造了五百年?那我得好好尝尝!”
“我、我觉得他好像也挺厉害的,但想要唤醒古树的话……确实有些难……”
“那倒不是,只是我从来没有见过这种模样的衣服,所有有些好奇,然后就……还望张枫先生见谅。”
诺拉有些期待地问道。
张枫有些动容,诺拉的话都说到这份上了,他再不答应,那岂不是有些不识好歹的了? “识时务者为俊杰”也是张枫的座右铭。
张枫拿起木头杯子,轻轻啄了一口。
诺拉没有先回答,而是先问向南希。
面对众人的疑问,诺拉笑着说道:
张枫还是第一次听到,能把衣服穿到腐朽的,今天算是涨了见识了! “呃,原来是这样,那真是一个悲伤的故事……不过,你没对我做啥吧?”
她倒不是对张枫有什么特殊想法,就是突然觉得,张枫好像也是有一些弱点的,这样调戏他挺好玩的,当然,诺拉也不敢太过火,毕竟还有一头龙在这呢。
虽然他们吃了这么多年,已经有些吃腻了,但只有张枫喜欢就行,毕竟这可是养了一条龙的男人! “张枫先生,不如再尝尝这酿造了五百年的果酒!”
“张枫先生,您有什么发现吗?”
既然确定了研究方向,张枫暂时就不穿越回现代了,对于意识需要的能量这个玄乎的问题,他在现代肯定查不出来什么东西。
众人都落座后,诺拉拍了拍手,顿时进来很多精灵开始上菜。
在第四杯酒的时候,张枫倒了。
果酒晶莹剔透,呈现淡红色,有点像红酒,但比红酒更加好看。
张枫保险起见,还是先把话都说明白,不能贸然答应。
“哇希尔,你竟然能看到,你不早说!”
张枫的神秘水晶虽然不少,但也绝对达不到挥霍的程度,不能马虎,得慢慢来,甚至他得考虑清楚,古树能承受多少神秘之力,虽然古树看着很大,但精神能量并不多了,要是一下子把他撑死了,那张枫可就真的无力回天了……
古树能战斗只是他的功能之一。
众精灵高层,都觉得这件事情很不靠谱。
这两棵古树,全称叫战争古树,具体有多少岁了,诺拉并不清楚,她只知道从她记事起,这里两棵战争古树就这么大了。
张枫暗骂一声,不再多想。
“唔~好吃!”
再看下去,也不会有什么收获,张枫就先回村子了,有些事情不好在这儿说,得回去商量。
“我也不太清楚,不过试一试又不会亏什么。”
“啊?真的吗?那我要——等等,我要先想想!”
张枫抽了抽手,但别看诺拉小手软乎乎的,他抽了几次,硬是没有抽掉。
这些精灵的实力,虽然张枫没有完全了解过,但管中窥豹,还没成年的南希实力都这么强,那这些活了上千年、甚至几千年的老妖怪,绝对会更变态! 而且她们擅长弓箭,个个都是神箭手!
“张枫先生昨天喝多了,打翻了酒水把衣服弄湿了,所以……”
“哈哈,我也相信我自己!”
血高,防厚,几乎无限蓝,能近战,能远攻,打不赢还能跑! 这就是战争古树对于月隐村的作用! 所以,对于月隐村来说,这两棵古树是她们的根本! 必须要唤醒古树,不然她们的实力可以说只剩下一成不到了!
巨龙,几千年就突然消失了,难道这个大陆上还有龙? ……
“咯咯咯,张枫先生说笑了,不知张枫先生希望我对你做什么呢?”
“当然,除了这个之外,我还有很多其他证据,毕竟当年我也跟不少巨龙打过交道的,巨龙的特征我再清楚不过了,比如……”
张枫有些期待的说道。
“那你们直达她是谁吗?”
对了,诺拉已经五千多岁了,战争古树很可能在一万岁以上!
“她是一头龙!”
……
“对呀,它饿了,然后为了保存力量,就陷入了沉睡。”
诺拉指着左手边的五个空位,这明显是给张枫几人留的。
这两棵古树,虽然和落日山脉里的其它巨树差不多高,但粗壮很多,张枫感觉,如果它里面是中空的话,那绝对就是两栋大楼了。
诺拉笑的花枝乱颤,张枫的视线也下意识的跟着乱颤。
有精灵怀疑道。
“把他们带到我这里的空房吧。”
精灵的食物和之前南希端过来的并没有太大差别,清一色的素食。
诺拉有些歉意地说道。
随着诺拉的讲述,张枫也算是大开了眼界。
当然,还有很多事情诺拉没说,比如她们为什么要来落日山脉,要找什么东西?当时古树还有意识的时候,为什么不走等等。
听到张枫说正事,诺拉不再开玩笑,也严肃了起来。
不光他,就是狐耳娘她们也是很期待。
一早醒来,神清气爽。
因为一些事情——具体什么事情诺拉没说,只说她们在找什么东西。
莉斯长老也附和道。
这搞得张枫有些不好意思。
张枫看了看散发着草木香味的被子下,光溜溜的身体,有些懵逼。
“咳咳……没有没有。”
效力三百年! 或许对于精灵们漫长是寿命来说,这三百年不算什么,但是对于张枫来说,这可就是一辈子啊!要知道,巴克王国的成立,也就才三百来年而已!
“真没想到,战争古树竟然这么厉害!那如果我运气好,把古树唤醒了,你答应过我的条件是否还有效?我是指战争古树。”
张枫看着窗外那苍老的战争古树说道。
"Of course, we are one with the ancient tree master. As long as you can awaken them, we will protect you for five hundred years together!"
Nora's eyes were serious and her tone was firm.
"Very good, in that case, let's get started now!"
