Isn’t there a language that this guy can understand?
Why didn't you say it just now?
While complaining in his heart, Li Yi pushed aside the professor who was still trying to communicate with him tirelessly, looked at the bearded dwarf, and said in an e-text.
"So you can say that?"
Rayleigh was startled for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening and immediately responded in e-text.
"Oh, my God, I didn't expect you to know the language of our clan. Do you know our ancestors?"
Li Yixin said that they could barely be considered acquaintances, and then nodded.
This made Rayleigh even more happy.
He simply pushed aside the confused Professor Kevin, stood in front of Li Yi, and looked up at him.
Only then did he intuitively see how tall Li Yi was... Although this body was only a little over 1.7 meters tall, for Blackbeard, who was less than 1 meter tall, it was already almost two of his heights. .
Although the giant opposite doesn't look very strong.
"So where do you come from? I heard that my ancestors also migrated to this island from a very large island, because the place they originally lived in has been completely submerged."
Li Yi was startled, then suddenly realized.
So this is also a water world? Oh, by the way, this place is built from the spiritual world of the Undersea King. More or less, the establishment of the world background will have some subjective consciousness of the host.
As a carrier who has lived on the seabed since childhood, he probably has almost no knowledge of the sea surface.
This can also explain why there is nothing on this island.
Even those canyon-like basins are probably based on re-creations of the Book of Strangeness!
"Why don't you speak? Did you not understand? Do you want me to speak slower?"
Lei Li's voice interrupted Li Yi's contemplation. He lowered his head and looked at the other party's big face, which was full of sincerity.
"No, I understand. It's just that what you said made me think of something else. I'm sorry."
Li Yi shook his head and continued to speak.
"I did come from another...place that you can't reach. I also came here for some special reasons."
Reilly continued to ask questions.
"What's the reason? Please forgive me. Maybe it's nothing to you, but it's very important to us."
Li Yi noticed that the other party used "we" instead of "me".
This made him realize something.
"Did I deliberately understand that the meaning of your question is what your clan means? But I'm sorry, I really can't say the reason, and even if I say it, you can't do anything about it."
He didn't say what it was that couldn't be helped, but he believed that the other party should be able to understand.
Sure enough, when he heard what Li Yi said, Lei Li's eyes, which were full of enthusiasm just now, suddenly dimmed, and most of his aura also faded, as if he had been hit.
"Sorry, I'm a little impatient."
Oh, haven’t given up yet?
Shake his head.
"It doesn't matter, it's understandable, after all, this is a place like this." Having said this, Li Yi looked around the island.
"It's normal to want to escape from here."
Indeed, everything you see is empty. Such a desolate scene looks no different from some uninhabited areas.
Don't know exactly what caused it.
And these people all live on this island...no, I should say, under the island.
At this time, after seeing the ability of these dwarves to dig holes, Li Yi naturally guessed where these dwarves lived on the island.
There seemed to be nowhere else they could go except the underground on the island.
But why?
Although he already had some concerns in his mind, since there was someone who could communicate with him, Li Yi thought it would be better to ask in person.
"Why do you live underground? I wonder if I have a chance to see where you live?"
He originally thought that the other party would hesitate or even refuse.
Although, his physique is quite intimidating among these dwarves.
Unexpectedly, the other party agreed directly without any hesitation.
"Okay, that's what I mean. I'll take you there now. Let's go."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Then Li Yi saw the other party say something to other people in a language he couldn't understand.
Everyone followed and left together.
"It seems that your status is very high."
When they saw the man who claimed to be the guard captain, he only said one sentence, which should be an explanation, and then everyone followed him.
Obviously everyone will obey the captain's orders.
"It's okay here. But down there, I'm just the captain."
Rayleigh smiled, seemingly disapproving.
And what he said below should be the gathering place of these dwarves.
In Captain Rayleigh's terms, it's called clan land.
"Here we are, come on. If you go down from here, you will reach the underground world."
In order to take care of Li Yi, who couldn't drill holes, it took a long time for the group to reach the center of the canyon.
During this period, Li Yi also noticed that, except for the professor named Kevin, the other members of the escort team who were brought out by the captain were looking around all the way, their faces full of vigilance, and their weapons ready to go. .
They seemed to be guarding against something.
But in a place like this, is there anything worth guarding against?
Anyway, Li Yi has been on the island for so long, and apart from these dwarves, he hasn't seen even a single ghost.
A simple elevator that couldn't be more crude.
The pulleys used for movement are made of wood, and the ropes also look like they have experienced many years of use. They make an overwhelming squeaking sound as soon as you stand on them.
"Don't be afraid. It may look old, but it won't be a problem. This is how we've been here for so many years."
As if he could see Li Yi's hesitation, Lei Li took the initiative to explain.
Kevin on the side took the initiative to intervene (because it was set that only Lei Li could speak flowers that Li Yi could understand, so he was included in subsequent exchanges by default, so I didn’t want to explain them one by one).
"Don't think that this thing will fall into disrepair over time. In fact, this kind of rope is a living plant and will continue to sprout and grow. The rope we use is made of the vines of this plant, and it is still growing. , so although it looks very old, there will be no problem.”
After hearing what the other party said, Li Yicai walked into the elevator, temporarily ignoring the thrill caused by the constant shaking.
Then.
"You all want to come up?"
Li Yi looked at the large group of people around him in astonishment, and subconsciously looked at the rope above that was said to be a plant vine.
Can anything really stand up to such a large crowd?
There are indeed quite a lot of people. A three-square-meter elevator is so packed that you can't even see your own feet.
As a result, everyone spoke together.
"Don't worry, we're all in this together."
"Also, despite our small stature, we are heavier than you."
Riley smiled and explained again.
For some reason, Li Yi always felt that the guard captain seemed to have become much more cheerful since he started talking to him.
Not as serious as when I first saw him.
What's the reason?
While thinking about it, time passed quickly, and the elevator's descent speed was not very fast. Compared with the elevator, it was probably only half the descent speed.
Five minutes later, with a violent shaking, the elevator stopped.
Rayleigh took the first step and opened the ajar door (yes, this elevator is not an elevator. There is no such railing on it. There is only a circle of railings suitable for the height of a dwarf next to it. The surrounding area looks pitch black and nothing can be seen. thing, but he could know that the surrounding area was empty, not an elevator shaft, which made Li Yi panic), he stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation and smiled.
"Here we go, please, my friend."
friend?
Before Li Yi had time to raise a big question mark in his mind, he was immediately shocked by the scene in this underground world.
