Chapter 1168 Once
There is a saying in the past life: I would rather tear down a temple than a marriage.
From this point of view, Akahavi is really guilty of a heinous crime.
I was thinking wildly while following in the footsteps of the Elf Queen.
When I was approaching my house, I saw Fenghuang and the others gathered in front of my house from a distance. They all looked excited and waved to me.
Just as I was about to raise my hand to respond to them, I heard a slight cough from Elder Jennifer behind me. She quickly stopped her movements and continued to walk pretentiously.
There should be no body movements, and the expression on the face can always change. Anyway, the Elf Queen, Elder Priscilla and Elder Mai Sonoda who are walking in front will not turn their heads, and Jennifer and other elders behind them cannot see. arrive.
Thinking of this, I opened my mouth, gritted my teeth, and made an exaggerated grimace.
The grimace made the Phoenix girls laugh, but this did not arouse the resentment of others. After all, welcoming the return of the goblin clan is a great thing, and a few laughs are harmless, at least that's what most elves think. .
Arriving at the edge of the Elf Forest, the Elf Queen stopped. According to the agreement, this was the end point for the welcoming team and the starting point for joining the Elf clan.
Since this is the welcoming place, many special arrangements have naturally been made. For example, in the early morning, it was still a flat grassland, but now a high platform as high as one person has been erected. The high platform is made of crystals and is completely transparent. Under the sunlight, Below, it blooms with brilliant brilliance, which is quite gorgeous and not dazzling.
Another advantage of choosing a high platform made of this material is that you can see everything under the high platform clearly and relieve some of each other's worries.
With the support of Emily, the Elf Queen slowly walked onto the high platform. After standing still, the Queen said: "For thousands of years, our Elf clan has always loved peace, respected each other, loved and helped each other, and has been praised throughout the Zephyr Continent. It is called glory by other races, but I have never been able to let go of the incident that happened more than ten years ago. To this day, on the occasion of the return of the Fairy Tribe, I will disclose the truth of what happened back then and give justice to the Fairy Tribe."
Then, the Elf Queen spoke in a steady tone on the high platform about what happened more than ten years ago.
This probably means that her brother, the elf prince Akahavi at that time, in order to implement a single centralized rule system in Moonlight City, he did not hesitate to issue a goblin massacre order and planned to wipe out the entire goblin clan within a few days.
When talking about this, some of the older elves present gritted their teeth and clenched their fists. Their resentment towards this incident could be said to have reached its peak.
Most of the elves in their twenties and thirties were silent. A large number of them were in the flowering and rainy season at that time, which was the age when love between men and women first blossomed. They were cuddling with their elf lovers and vowed to stay together forever. But they were torn apart inexplicably and ruthlessly. Some people may just be separated by two places, but some people are separated forever and never see each other again.
As for the children of the elves, they have little experience with this period of history, but they occasionally hear some rumors about the elves from their parents, and every time they hear rumors related to the elves, their parents will There was silence for a long time, with sad eyes and nostalgic eyes.
All the elves silently gathered around the high platform, each one silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn, like a stone weighing on every elf's heart.
While everyone was bowing their heads in deep thought, I turned to Phoenix and the others and nodded slightly. At the same time, Mr. Taylor behind Gordo also nodded to me. As soon as he moved, he disappeared. I blinked twice. I didn't see the shadow of Mr. Taylor in the crowd anymore. I guess the old man used some magic that can teleport.
With the Elf Queen's speech, the atmosphere here once again reached a heavy climax. Some people were still silent, some had red eyes, and some could not help but shed tears.
The heavy memories, the sad past, and the pain at that moment are like pulling out a knife stuck in the flesh, unforgettable.
However, this is the best way to heal wounds. If the knife is always inserted into the flesh, the pain will continue until it can never be relieved. Pulling it out will hurt your heart in an instant, but it will be painful in the days to come. Gradually scabs and heals until complete recovery.
Two hours later, the Elf Queen completed her speech and also confessed the mistakes she had made as a royal. In fact, she did not have to bear these, but at this moment, she had to bear them because she was the Queen. She represents the Elf Royal Family, she also represents the Elf Nobles, and at the same time, she also represents the entire Elf Race.
A commoner's mistake may only need to be borne by her, but a royal family's mistake needs to be borne by the entire race.
This is the difference in status, and this is also the risk of high position.
At the same time as the speech ended, a song like the sound of nature suddenly sounded in the Forest of Elves. The song was gentle and elegant, like a clear spring, refreshing at the bottom.
As the song sounded, every tree, every flower, every grass, every animal, every insect in the entire Elf Forest, as well as those unnamed magical species, all followed the song. While dancing, they will also make some low or high sounds in their own way to coordinate with it, and together they will accompany an unparalleled song of the forest.
The elves raised their heads one after another and looked at the Elf Forest with fascination. The young children closed their eyes one by one and listened quietly to the song of the forest. Maybe they still didn’t understand what this natural sound meant, but they But I like this song very much. The song is like the cradle where they once slept, the mother's arms where they were embraced, and the father's arms where they were protected.
The young elves were full of yearning and intoxicated faces, as if they had seen the peerless beauty and the alluring smile of the peerless beauty.
The older elves were either silent or had red eyes. This song was like a spark, instantly igniting the memories buried in their hearts. Although it was short-lived, it was unforgettable.
The older elves had already burst into tears and were sobbing loudly. This song was like the blazing sun, completely melting their memories that had been frozen to despair. The scenes of laughter, laughter, life and death in the past were like revolving lanterns in their minds. Changes appear before your eyes.
Those are the memories they can't let go of, the life-and-death friends they are willing to trust with their lives.
Once, they denounced the crimes committed by their proud elf prince.
Once upon a time, they were in so much pain and grief that they could not sleep well at night.
Once, they thought they would never see their former comrades again in this life.
Once upon a time, they had to freeze their lifelong memories in despair, not daring to melt them even a little bit for fear of breaking their hearts.
They had too many pasts.
These old men who fought for the elves all their lives even decided to be buried in this forest of elves after their death, just to be with their former comrades.
