"..." When Ji Xiaoxiao and the other four people heard what the leader Goblin said, their expressions suddenly changed, and their hearts sank to the bottom of their hearts.
They had actually expected that the exit that disappeared before was actually a space passage. When the time came, the space passage disappeared. Now that it was confirmed by the indigenous people of this underground space, their mood became very heavy in an instant.
The leading goblin looked at the depressed Ji Xiaoxiao and his group of four, and then said, "Do you want to come and sit in our village?"
Ji Xiaoxiao heard the invitation from the other party, thought about it, turned to look at his companions, and asked them in the language of Blue Star, "Should we accept his invitation?"
"This goblin looks quite friendly. Since we can't leave here right now, we might as well get in touch with him!" Wang Chao said.
"Yes! I also agree with what Wang Chao said. According to what he just said, we will not be able to leave this place in a short time. It is not a bad thing to contact the aborigines living here in advance." Sun Bin agreed.
road.
Ji Xiaoxiao looked at Cheng Ling and asked her opinion, "Cheng Ling, do you think so too?"
Cheng Ling was in the lowest mood among the four at the moment. When Ji Xiaoxiao asked for her opinion, she didn't speak and just nodded in agreement.
Ji Xiaoxiao saw that her companions all agreed, so she raised her head, looked at the leading goblin, smiled and said, "Then I'll bother you."
The leading goblin smiled, and then he began to call his companions to fetch water below the depression.
While fetching water, the young goblin frequently looked at Ji Xiaoxiao and his party, full of curiosity about them.
Ji Xiaoxiao and his group of four were also very confused at this moment as to why these goblins were so friendly to them.
It took more than half an hour to fill the large buckets and small buckets brought by the goblins with water.
Then, everyone started to return. At this time, Ji Xiaoxiao and his group of four also set off at the invitation of each other, heading towards the village where they lived.
On the way, Wang Chao casually chatted with the leading goblin and the gray-haired goblin, and finally understood from their mouths why these goblins were so friendly to them.
It turns out that many years ago, humans came to this place to eliminate the strange beasts on the plains, which indirectly helped these goblins living here.
Those humans lived on this plain for decades, until almost all the dangerous beasts on the plain were wiped out, and then they all migrated away from here and returned to the kingdom of humans.
Through in-depth understanding, Ji Xiaoxiao and his party learned that this underground space has an exit to the ground, but the world on the ground is no longer the spiritual world, but another strange world.
When Ji Xiaoxiao and his party learned that this world was no longer in the spiritual world, they were extremely shocked.
Who would have thought that I would inadvertently come to another world through an intermediate passage. I really don’t know whether to call this luck good or bad.
"It is said that space passages connect different worlds together, but I never thought that such a thing really existed.
The records I have seen in ancient books in the past say that in different worlds connected by space passages, those who come there are often some ferocious beasts.
Now it seems that the content recorded in the ancient books is still somewhat wrong. It may be a human being who came to our world through the space channel." The gray-haired Goblin said.
"..." They came to a different world to perform a mission, and then accidentally entered another different world, and were trapped here. The four people in Ji Xiaoxiao's group felt quite heavy.
In the eyes of the goblins, although Ji Xiaoxiao and his party of four came from another world, they were still humans after all. There were many human kingdoms on the ground. If they couldn't go back, they could just live in the human kingdom. It was no big deal.
"Old sir, why is the language you speak the lingua franca of the spirit world?" Wang Chao had always had this doubt in his heart. After chatting with the other party for a while, he asked.
"Because tens of thousands of years ago, our world was invaded by the spirit world, and the whole world fell." The gray-haired Goblin said in a relaxed tone.
"Ah?" When Ji Xiaoxiao and the other four people heard this, they were as shocked as if they had been struck by lightning.
"Actually, being invaded by the spirit world is not necessarily a bad thing." The leading goblin on the side said something again, which Ji Xiaoxiao and the other four people could not understand.
"Why do you say that?" Sun Bin said. In his opinion, it was unacceptable for his home to be invaded.
"According to historical records, it is said that tens of thousands of years ago, our world was dominated by alien beasts. Both we and humans were the meals of alien beasts, and our daily lives were very difficult.
Until one day, a space channel connecting the spiritual world appeared in this world.
Creatures from the spiritual world entered our world and fought against the powerful alien beasts that dominated this world. In the end, those very powerful alien beasts were almost wiped out." The gray-haired Goblin explained.
"Later, after the creatures in the spiritual world defeated the alien beasts and became the masters of this world, they discovered that our world's resources are scarce.
In the end, they didn’t rule our world for many years before they all evacuated.” The leading goblin added.
"..." Ji Xiaoxiao and his party were speechless after listening to the two goblins' explanation.
Everyone was thinking that the spiritual forces that invaded this world might have initially thought that they would make a lot of money by discovering a different world, but in the end, they found out that it was a loss-making business.
"Our current world uses the common language of the spirit world, which was also popularized at that time." The leading goblin said.
"In the past, everyone spoke many languages, and communication was quite cumbersome. Now it's good to have a common language that everyone can use." The gray-haired Goblin said.
The group of people walked and chatted. Ji Xiaoxiao and the others learned a lot about the world through the two goblins.
But when it comes to the human kingdom on the ground, the Goblins don't know much about it, because they have been living in this underground space and have never traveled to the human kingdom on the ground.
"When we take a break and go to the ground to search for the human kingdom, we might be able to find a different way to get home." Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said to the three companions around him.
"Yes." Cheng Ling nodded. At this time, her depressed mood recovered a little, and she was full of curiosity about the human kingdom on earth.
"If we go to the human country in this world to collect intelligence, we must hide our identities." Sun Bin whispered in the language of Blue Star.
"Indeed, it would be terrible if they knew that we came from the spirit world and had evil intentions." Wang Chao nodded, feeling that what Sun Bin said was very reasonable.
The villages where these goblins lived were quite far away. After walking for an hour and a half, I finally saw a group of buildings on the horizon ahead.
It was very inconvenient to travel such a long distance to get water. I found out after asking.
It turned out that the well in this goblin village had dried up due to drought for several months, so he had to go to a depression far away from where he lived to get water.
It is said that after the rainy season arrives, there will be no need to spend so much time running so far to fetch water every day.
"The village chief and the others are back." There was a sentry tower built in the village. The militiamen standing on the sentry tower saw the water fetching team appearing in the distance and shouted loudly to the villagers in the village.
When Ji Xiaoxiao and his group followed the Goblin water-fetching team back to the village, all the surrounding Goblin villagers looked at them curiously.
After all, these goblins have lived in this underground world for so many years, but have never seen humans, so they will inevitably be very curious about them.
"Okay, everyone, stop watching around the guests and go do what you have to do." The gray-haired Goblin shouted to the surrounding villagers.
The village chief spoke, and the villagers dispersed, leaving only some young children who stayed where they were, looking at Ji Xiaoxiao and his group with wide eyes.
"Everyone, please come to my house to rest!" The gray-haired Goblin village chief enthusiastically invited Ji Xiaoxiao and his group of four.
"Thank you, old sir." Ji Xiaoxiao thanked him, and then they followed the Goblin Village Chief towards his home.
This village has a large population. According to the Goblin Village Chief, there are about 1,500 people.
A wall made of dirt surrounds the entire village. There are pieces of farmland in the village. The color of the food grown in the ground is the same as the plants outside, and it also emits a faint light.
The Goblin Village Chief's home is a three-story wooden building with a yard. His relative died of illness early in his life, and now he lives alone.
"Everyone does whatever you want. Just treat this place as your own home. Don't be polite to me." After the gray-haired Goblin village chief introduced Ji Xiaoxiao and his party to his home, he took them to the living room on the first floor to sit down.
, said with a smile.
Afterwards, he poured a bowl of water for each of Ji Xiaoxiao's group.
Although we got to know each other a little along the way and the other party was very friendly, it was still impossible to completely trust each other immediately.
Ji Xiaoxiao and the other four people did not immediately pick up the water poured by the Goblin Village Chief, but continued chatting with him.
"You guys stay here for now. There are still some things in the village that I need to deal with." The Goblin Village Chief seemed to have thought of some things that had not yet been dealt with. He stood up and said to Ji Xiaoxiao and the others.
"Okay, old sir, go and do your work! By the way, can we go for a walk around the village?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked.
"Okay! But you will definitely be watched by many people." The Goblin Village Chief said.
"It's okay." Ji Xiaoxiao said, and then they followed the Goblin Village Chief out of the living room and separated at the door.
"Are we going to rest tonight and leave for the exit of the surface world tomorrow?" Sun Bin asked.
"Go to the human kingdom on the surface as soon as possible! This underground space is so depressing." Cheng Ling was very unaccustomed to this sunless underground world and urged.
"If you ask me, we will say goodbye to each other directly later and set off to the exit of this underground space.
If we have lunch later and someone else cooks lunch, we can’t just not drink water like we did just now, and we can’t even eat the rice cooked by others!” Wang Chao said.
"This is indeed a problem. Wang Chao is right. We will say goodbye to the old man later and head to the exit to the above world." Ji Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said.
Sun Bin and Cheng Ling thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, so the four of them decided to leave the goblin village after a while.

Blue Star, Qingxi Town.
"Let me serve you some more porridge!" Lu Yunping said when she saw that the porridge in her daughter's bowl was almost finished.
Zhou Yue immediately shook her head after hearing this. She swallowed the meat buns in her mouth and said, "I'm full."
"You're full after just one bowl today?" Lu Yunping said with some confusion.
Zhou Yue, who wanted to finish breakfast quickly and went to meet Lin Fei, smiled and said, "I'm not very hungry today."
"Oh." Lu Yunping nodded, and then Zhou Yue drank the remaining porridge in the bowl, ate a spring roll, packed up the dishes and went to the kitchen.
"Mom, I'm going out. Don't prepare my lunch at noon, and um, there's no need to prepare dinner either." Zhou Yue put the bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen sink and came out, saying to her mother who was eating, and then quickly walked to her own
Walk to the bedroom.
Lu Yunping didn't ask any questions. He thought Zhou Yue was going shopping with friends.
After a while, Zhou Yue changed into her pajamas and left the house.
After leaving the community, Zhou Yue came to the roadside. Soon, she saw a figure standing under the tree across the street.
Lin Fei was leaning against a street tree, playing with his mobile phone and watching a funny thing that happened somewhere yesterday.
A faint fragrance rushed towards him, and when he smelled the familiar smell, Lin Fei raised his head and looked, only to see Zhou Yue standing in front of him with a smile on his face.
Today Zhou Yue is wearing a light blue dress, with her hair tied into a ponytail. The loose dress cannot hide her slim figure, showing off her charm.
"Coming!"
"Um."
"It's hard for you to move around in the wild in this outfit?" Lin Fei looked at the beautifully dressed Zhou Yue and said.
"I know! But you can't wear something different from usual when you go out! If that happens, my mother will definitely get suspicious." Zhou Yue raised her hand and pushed the hanging hair behind her ears, smiling.
said.
"That's right. Then I will take you home to change your clothes first, and then we will go to the wild to look for strange beasts." Lin Fei nodded and said.
"Okay!" Zhou Yue smiled.
Then, Lin Fei put his hand on Zhou Yue's shoulder, and with a thought in his mind, a light golden aura quickly spread on the two people, and then the two disappeared on the roadside.
An old aunt who went out to buy vegetables in the morning was about to go home, holding a vegetable basket in her hand. Suddenly she saw a flash of pale golden light on the roadside, and then two young people disappeared.
She thought she was dazzled, so she took off her reading glasses and rubbed her eyes.
