"Knock-knock-"

The door is not thick, it seems to be a little hollow, and the sound of knocking is a little general.

Originally, Sean was going to knock three times, but when he knocked the second time, he already heard the sound of footsteps, so his hand stopped.

A few moments later, the door creaked open.

Sean and Cecilia were stunned.

Only William, as if he had already anticipated the situation in front of him, looked calm.

Standing in front of Sean and the others was a man with a disheveled head, his green hair obscured his appearance, and he looked a little like green algae, and his hair hadn't been washed for a long time, not only dirty and sticky, but also emitting a peculiar smell. The clothes he wore were light gray shirts, vaguely recognizable to be the aristocratic style that had been popular a few years ago, but Sean remembered that this style of clothing seemed to be only available in white.

As for his pants, it was even more miserable, not only the edges were worn out, but there were also many dirt marks, and they were even scratched by some thorns and other things, and it was very reluctant to say that the pants were already very reluctant.

Not to mention the forest elves who are known for their elegance, even if they are gray elves who live like a vagabond, he is a little inferior.

This guy is really a forest elf...... No, is it really an elf?

Sean blinked and looked at the other party in shock, while Cecilia, obviously unable to stand the smell comparable to poisonous gas emitted from the other party, had quietly taken several steps back and stood outside the house breathing in the fresh air. Although this action is very impolite, but in the face of the existence of this almost humanoid biological weapon, I'm afraid that few people can really withstand it, right?

"Who are you looking for?" However, the elf did not seem to notice, and he reached out to brush away the long hair in front of his eyes, and stared at the visitor with a curious expression.

At this time, Sean saw clearly that this guy was indeed an elf.

The elves are naturally good-looking because of their race, and this is especially obvious in the blood elves. They have completely inherited the tall stature and beautiful appearance of the Silver Moon Elves, as well as the innate elegance of the body. And several other tribes. Because of the difference in living habits, each has developed some more obvious racial styles or characteristics.

For example, the dark elves are more wild and sexy, the highland elves are the tallest and most mature, and the gray elves are thin but extremely flexible. As for the forest elves, perhaps because they have lived in the forest for a long time, their skin is the whitest.

The forest elf in front of him, although his body was very dirty. And it's as uncomfortable as the source of the transmission of human biochemical viruses, but hidden under the green algae-like hair, it is a very handsome and white typical elf face. He still looks very young - the elves are about one hundred and twenty years old before they reach adulthood, and the general lifespan can reach more than five hundred years, so Sean doesn't know how old this elf is - just looking at his appearance, it should not be more than three hundred years old. Because generally beyond this age, even if the elf has entered middle age, there will be more obvious characteristics in appearance.

At this moment, his eyes staring at Sean up and down looked particularly intent, and his turquoise eyes exuded an astonishing light, which was exactly the same as William who was excited. And on either side of his temples, Sean also saw pointed ears, which belonged to the elves.

"It's me." William opened his mouth to say hello. "William."

"William?" The gaze of the elves. moved from Sean's body to William's, and the originally puzzled look immediately showed a happy look. "William. Yale? Hey! How did you come up with the idea of coming to me? …… It's been a long time! Speaking of this, the elf paused slightly, and his originally happy expression turned into suspicion again: "You must have come to me to collect debts, right?" ”

"It's not." William smiled helplessly.

Then the elf smiled again, and seemed to be sincerely pleased with the visit of his old friend. He gave William a warm hug, but in Sean's opinion, William was probably not very willing, because the smell of this elf was too bad, and the elf family was notoriously tall, this elf was at least about 1.9 meters, compared to William, who was only 1.8 meters less than Sean and about 1.85 meters, this elf was enough for the two to look up.

So the hug between him and William became William's need to smell the stench on his clothes up close.

Finally relieving himself, William immediately stretched out his hand to Sean and Cecilia, and hurriedly said, "Let me introduce you, this is Sean, and the little girl is Cecilia." Then he put his hand over to the elf and said, "This is Neil. Patrick. Harris, a ...... You can be of any race. ”

So Sean knew that this Neil was really resistant to others saying that he was a forest elf.

After hearing William's introduction, the Neil first glanced Sean up and down, as if he was thinking about something, and then asked, "Do I owe you money?" ”

"I don't think so." Sean was stunned for a moment, then replied, "I think this is the first time we've met." ”

Then, Sean saw the smile on Neil's face: "Hey! Welcome, William's friend is my friend, come in and sit! ”

Neil welcomed Sean and the others into the house very enthusiastically, and William stepped in without the slightest hesitation, so Sean and Cecilia could only follow in, after all, their original purpose was to find Neil, and they have already come here at this moment, so how can there be any reason not to enter the house? It's just that both of them are hoping that this house will not be like Neil, a place full of poisonous gas.

After entering the house, Sean and Cecilia realized that their thoughts were superfluous.

There was no poison gas in the house.

However, it is also similar to the image of Neil.

The whole house was littered with countless books, some of which were opened or thrown there, and the entire first floor was almost densely covered with a carpet of books. And not only that, from the staircase from the first floor to the second floor, Sean also saw countless books scattered, and even overturned ink and paper with some inexplicable drawings and formulas, contents, and some bits and pieces of food, Sean even saw several blankets thrown on the ground at random, and he didn't know what the road was used for.

"Feel free to do whatever you want!" Neil said heroically, "If you're hungry." There's some food over there...... You don't mind eating it raw, do you? ”

Finger down Neil's hand. In a corner that is easy to be overlooked, there are still a lot of vegetables and fruits, but these vegetables and fruits are not in good condition, and they belong to the type that no one may buy when they are brought to the vegetable market.

"The ones in good condition are sold." As if to see Sean's doubts, Neil opened his mouth to explain, "But don't look at these things as good, but they're actually very sweet...... Not. Try one? As he spoke, he picked out a few fruits and vegetables that were relatively intact and were only slightly dented because they had fallen and handed them to Sean and the others, "This is my improved cucumber, with the sweetness of red pears, which is quite popular in this small village, but there are still a few difficulties that have not been overcome." Therefore, the yield is not very stable, if you are lucky, you can produce seventeen or eighteen in three months, and if you are unlucky, you can only produce three or four. ”

Speaking of this technical problem, Neil seemed excited.

Then Sean and the others also learned that three of the six small fields outside were experimental fields for planting some of his improved products. It's just that it's always because of one kind or another. So either the production is not very stable. Either the experiment failed and the fertility of the soil was completely lost, and then he would need to spend a lot of energy on the land again. At the very least, the fertility level must be pulled back to the level before he can continue to do some experiments.

At this point, just like others have hobbies such as raising flowers and birds, Neil's hobby is to improve the cultivation and cultivation of some fruits and vegetables. However, at present, there is no stable production. Basically, the planting results are very test of luck, and Neil has tried many methods, but unfortunately the yield has always been unstable, and he has no good way to do this, who made him so poor that he longed to break a copper plate into two flowers.

It is also said that there is a lot of foreign debt.

However, the forest elf was not stupid enough to eat the grass around the nest, so his reputation in this nameless village was not bad. It's just that out of the rest of the village, it can almost be said that it is a mess, because he always suddenly has some inexplicable ideas and ideas, and it takes a lot of money to carry out experiments, so when there is no way, he will sell some semi-finished products and other things to others, but when selling these semi-finished products, he does not give the other party design drawings and design formulas, only gives a general concept concept.

It would be really strange if such a semi-finished product could be successfully researched by others.

So it's not difficult to understand why this forest spirit would be so hard-pressed and even hunted down. However, he is not really useless, it is said that several lords he once served are currently inquiring about his whereabouts, and it is very likely that he will be invited back to be a staff member again, but this forest elf has shown his arrogant side at this time: all refuse.

For no other reason, he didn't think there was any future for following these lords.

"Here's for you." After chatting for a while, Neil suddenly handed a card to Sean.

Sean took it and looked at it, and there was only one sentence written on it.

"Consultation questions, one hundred Pan-Continent gold coins for one question, no credit."

Seeing this note, Sean's eyes showed a little discoloration.

"I don't owe you money, and we didn't know each other before that, and you were introduced by William, so there's only one possibility left." Neil took a bite of the cucumber-like fruit, crisp, "You need to use my wisdom to help you solve your problems." For William's sake, I'm going to give you the lowest fee. ”

Seeing Neil actually showing such a confident side, Sean groaned a little and then said, "I want to become the pioneer knight of the Marquis of Tonys, do you have any good ideas?" (To be continued.) )
