Chapter 137

The male elf who was lying to Xu Yi just now raised the bow and arrow in his hand and pointed it at Xu Yi, and shouted coldly: "Human, apologize immediately for your disrespect, otherwise don't blame me for being polite!"

The elves around were all dissatisfied and stared at Xu Yi coldly.

Yanis was shocked, and hurriedly approached Xu Yi and whispered: "President Xu, how could you... say such words to the elder?"

Xu Yi smiled at her: "Don't worry, the elder will not be angry, because I'm telling the truth."

Everyone turned to Elder Elucia, and indeed did not see any unpleasant expression on her face. Instead, they seemed to be very happy because of Xu Yi's words and smiled: "Human, I just said that meaningless compliments are meaningless to me. Although I don't look older than you on the outside, I am actually over 300 years old and old enough to be your great-grandmother. Do you think it's meaningful to praise me?"

Xu Yi shook his head: "No, I think you have misunderstood by elder. Although your beauty and temperament really make me moved, the value I value most is your wisdom and knowledge. If I can learn something from you, I think it will be very cost-effective this time. What's more, the elves also contain value that you probably haven't discovered, such as her..." Xu Yi pointed to Yanis.

A group of elves looked at Yanis in surprise, and Yanis pointed at him blankly, looking at him at a loss.

"Liss said, you ever wanted to ask for her as your reward for helping our tribe?" As soon as Elder Elhuia said this, Xu Yi, Steele and Vivian suddenly felt that the temperature around him suddenly dropped a lot. The elves around him all exuded murderous aura. "Humans, I want to solemnly warn you. You humans have captured many elves as slaves before. Our elves hate this kind of thing. If you want to make such a request, I advise you to leave here immediately. Even if our tribe disappears from this world due to difficulties, I will never agree to your request."

Looking at the hostile eyes of the elves around him, Xu Yi smiled bitterly and was about to open his mouth, but Yanis waved his hands and said, "Elder, you misunderstood. President Xu didn't want me to be his slave, he just... just wanted me to help him work."

"Work?" Elder Ellihia looked at Xu Yi in surprise. "What kind of work can Yanis do for you? She is still a child."

Xu Yi smiled and said, "Dear Elder Elder Ellihia. As I said just now, Yanis contains value that you have not discovered. Let me give you an example. In the more than half month when Yanis was with me, she helped me complete part of the appearance design work for a new product launched by our Chamber of Commerce. This new product has been sold for half a month, but it has earned more than 100,000 gold coins for our Chamber of Commerce."

"Hundred thousand gold coins?" Not only the elves around were exclaiming in unison, but even Elder Ellis could not help but open his eyes slightly and asked in surprise: "Did you mean. Yanis earned so much 100 thousand gold coins for your Chamber of Commerce?"

"That won't be." Xu Yi shook his head. "This new product contains the hard work of many people, not just Yanis's credit. But in my personal opinion, Yanis plays the greatest role. If you divide these 100,000 gold coins, the value generated by Yanis will be at least more than 20,000 gold coins."

After hearing that Xu Yi had such a high opinion of herself, Yanis couldn't help but show a hint of joy and looked at Xu Yi with a smile.

"Twenty thousand gold coins..." Elder Elucia nodded slightly: "Human. Although I don't like your way of directly measuring value with gold coins, I admit that this description is easy to understand. But even if Yanis contains a strong value, I will not agree to hand her over to you. You humans are very unfriendly to us elves. I don't think Yanis can live safely in your human world."

Seeing the serious expression on Elder Elhuia's face, Xu Yi could only sigh in his heart.

The gap between the elves and humans is too deep. The prejudice against humans is too deep. It is impossible to reverse the perception of these stubborn elves of humans in a short period of time.

After thinking about it, Xu Yi gave up on this topic, smiled again, pointed to the box carried by another male elf and said, "Okay, Elder Elliotia, talking about compensation before we have completed our work, it is a very boring thing to talk about. Now let's see how we should help you first."

Elder Elhuia smiled and nodded: "It seems that you are a human who doesn't like to talk empty words. I like it very much. Come with me."

Elder Ershia led the way in front. The group entered the gap between two giant trees. After walking a few steps, they saw a large pit suddenly appearing on a small open space ahead.

"We have tried to use groundwater, but when we dig it to a depth of more than ten meters, we encountered a very thick rock layer. The rock was too hard, and even with my ability, we could not shake it, so we could only give up in the end." Elder Erucia pointed at the big tunnel.

Xu Yi looked down near the edge of the pit and found that even with the bright fluorescence above his head, he could not see clearly what the bottom of the pit looked like.

"Elder Ershia, do you have a rope long enough? I want to go down and see the specific situation." Xu Yi said.

Steele, who was beside him, suddenly pulled Xu Yi's sleeve and shook his head gently at him.

Seeing her worried expression, Xu Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry, with so many noble elves next to me, I won't have anything to do."

Elder Elhuia smiled slightly: "Humans do not need to force us with words. We elves have their own principles." After that, he explained to a male elf. The male elf hurriedly left and soon took a long roll of rattan.

Xu Yi took one end of the rattan and pulled it hard, and found that the rattan was extremely tough, and was afraid it was stronger than the same thickness of nylon rope.

Tie one end on your waist, and Xu Yi is ready to dive into the pit to see what happened.

Seeing that Xu Yi was about to climb down, Yanis suddenly rushed out.

"Elder, let me go with him? If something happens, I can still save him."

Elder Elucia glanced at Yanis in a little surprised, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, we can't let human guests take risks alone."

Steele looked at Yanis with a strange look on his face and tied himself and Xu Yi together, and opened his mouth, but he still said nothing.

Vivian beside him said with some annoyance: "I would have been as agile as Sister Yanis."

Steele glanced at her and thought to herself that I thought that way, but in addition to racial talent, the agile skills of the elves have also been because they have lived in this forest since childhood and have practiced little by little, so how can ordinary humans get it?

The two could only watch Xu Yi and Yanis were almost hung into the pit together with each other.

When Xu Yi heard that Yanis was going to go down with him, he had no special thought at first, but as the depth of his whereabouts became deeper and darker around him, he could feel the various changes around him more and more.

Feeling Yanis's body tightly close to him, and even the slightest breath spurted out from Yanis's nostrils on his face. Even Xu Yi was a wooden man, his heartbeat could not help but increase.

And in this dark environment, even the heartbeat seems to be clearly audible.

"President Xu, are you scared?" Yanis asked suddenly.

It would be fine if she didn't speak, but a breath came from her mouth when she opened her mouth.

Of course it is not bad breath. On the contrary, this breath also contains a special fragrance of plants and trees, which makes Xu Yi feel shocked when he smelled it.

But this made Xu Yi even more embarrassed. Not only did his heart beat faster again, but even a certain part could not help but react.

Fortunately, the deep pit was only more than ten meters deep, and Xu Yi quickly felt that he touched the ground under his feet and felt relieved.

Yanis stretched out a finger, and a little green light came out from her fingers, illuminating the environment at the bottom of the pit.

The pit dug by the elves is quite spacious, with a bottom of nearly ten square meters, allowing the two of them to have a lot of room for maneuver after standing.

With the light in Yanis's hand, Xu Yi carefully investigated the situation around him, then squatted down and used his hand to peel off the soil on the ground, revealing the hidden rock formation below.

Xu Yixian touched it with his hands. Judging from the feel, the rocks in this rock layer should not be tight and the stones are relatively loose. He nodded in satisfaction.

Even if such a rock layer is a bit thick, it doesn’t matter. You can definitely drill through it with the tools you bring.

In fact, in theory, forests like the Forest of the Rain, there should not be such a rock layer at all below just over ten meters deep. What's more, there are such thick and tall giant trees on the surface where the elves survive. The roots of these giant trees alone are enough to prevent ordinary rock layers from existing, so this situation is not in line with Xu Yi's common sense.

However, thinking that this was not the earth, and common sense on the earth could not be completely applied, Xu Yi felt relieved and did not think about this question.

After the investigation, Xu Yi pulled the rattan tied to his body hard, allowing the elves above the pit to pull themselves and Yanis up again.

Facing the expectant gaze of the elves and Elder Elhuia, Xu Yi nodded: "It should be no problem."

The elves immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and even Elder Ellihia's face showed a hint of joy.

Xu Yi ignored so much and opened the box he carried, revealing a machine made of a huge drill bit as thick as his arm at the front of the box.

Xu Yi raised the machine in his hand effort and smiled at Elder Elhuia: "Dear Elder, please allow me to be honored to introduce to you. This is the magic machine specially developed by our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to solve the problems encountered by your tribe. It is called the small magic drilling machine."
