Chapter 398 The small village under the Holy Snow Mountain
A towering snow-capped mountain peak almost touches the clouds on the horizon. The snow below the mountain gradually recedes. A country road running through the red maple forest stretches from the foot of the snow-capped mountain to the distance. On weekdays, few people have ever experienced this.
On the forest path, two teenagers, a boy and a girl, were walking by. Looking at the direction they were walking, it seemed that they were coming down from the snow-capped mountains behind them.
After recovering from their injuries in Shuiyun Stream, Bing Zhixie and Alice spent more than ten days before walking out of the Holy Snow Mountain Range. Now they have reached the east of the Holy Snow Mountain Range, which is where
On the opposite side of the Danrer Plain.
"Give way, give way." A farmer driving a snowyak cart came towards us from the path.
Alice quickly stepped aside to let the ox cart pass.
When the farmer passed by them, he stopped, looked at them and asked, "Where are you coming from? That's the road leading to the mountains over there."
"We are just..."
"We got here after getting lost in the woods." Bing Zhixie interrupted Alice and asked, "Uncle, if we walk along this road, is there a village ahead?"
"Ah, of course, my home is right there." The farmer said, "If you don't go far further, you can see Tranquility Lake. Our village is there."
"Thank you." Bing Zhixie and Alice bowed and saluted before continuing to walk along the road.
Not long after we emerged from the red maple forest, we saw a small lake as expected. The surface of the lake was calm and calm, with almost no ripples or ripples, so it really deserved the name "Calm Lake".
Alice stood by the lake and gazed into the distance for a while. Looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, the nearby red forest and the calm mirror-like lake in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's so quiet and beautiful here."
It is indeed very quiet here. There is no cold wind whistling on the snow-capped mountains, and there is no noise of people in the bustling town. There are only the sounds of birds chirping in my ears, farmers plowing and three or two snowy yaks yawning.
"Master, the village is over there." Alice pointed her finger, and she could see a small village not far from the lake. The big red four-leaf windmill in the village could clearly be seen rotating slowly.
The village was not big, with only a dozen or so households. Alice followed her master on the only street in the village. From one end of the village to the other, she probably wouldn't have to walk many steps to complete the walk.
"This village is so small. I wonder where the hotel is." Alice looked around, but she didn't see any accommodation signs hanging on any houses.
"Hey, be careful." A basin of steaming dirty water was poured on the road where Bing Zhixie and Alice were passing. The aunt in a white apron looked at the two of them and said, "I didn't dirty your pants.
Bar?"
Bing Zhixie shook her head and asked, "Excuse me, auntie, where is the place to stay?"
The aunt said: "You said a hotel. Our village is too small and there is no hotel."
"Ah, there is no hotel, what should I do?" Alice looked at the sky and said: "It will be dark soon. I have been sleeping in the open for so long, and I still want to have a good night's rest."
The aunt said: "The nearest town is still a long way away from here. You won't be able to get there before dark, so you can come to my house and stay one night."
"Really, Auntie?" Bingzhixie said.
"I happen to have a small spare bedroom in my house, where you can stay." The aunt said with a smile.
"Thank you, thank you." Alice looked at the master happily and followed him into the house.
The aunt took them to a small room in the attic on the second floor and asked, "Are you brothers and sisters?"
"No, but it doesn't matter, we can share a room." Bingzhixie said.
The aunt smiled: "You must be a young couple, right?"
"Ah, no, no, no." Alice glanced at Bing Zhixie, with a hint of blush on her face and said, "He...he is my master."
The aunt saw Alice's shy look: "So that's it. You guys should take a rest first, I'll make dinner, and my son will come to have dinner with me later."
"I really don't know how to thank you." Bing Zhixie bent down and said, "We have used up all our money, but here is a spar, even if..."
"No, no, no."
"Wait a minute." Bing Zhixie said again: "Auntie, is there any small shop in the village? I want to buy a set of clothes or something."
The aunt said: "There is an old tailor at the east end of the village, and there is a grocery store next to his house."
"Thanks."
After the aunt left, Alice took off the big backpack on Bing Zhixie's back and asked, "Where should we go after leaving Holy Snow Mountain?"
Bing Zhixie said: "The information I got from your uncle is that there may be clues about Long Ling in the Yanyang area of the Eastern Continent, but the specifics are not clear, so I want to go to the Eastern Continent first to have a look."
"Eastern Continent, we are going to the Eastern Continent." Alice was looking forward to it and a little excited. She had been trapped in the palace since she was a child, and she just wanted to go outside and see: "But, from here to the East Continent,
It’s a long way to go to the mainland.”
"Yeah." Bing Zhixie said: "It just so happens that we can collect some other information on the way, as well as information about the woman named Joanna. By the way, Alice, why don't you go buy something?"
Alice took a few crystal stones from the master's hand and smiled: "Leave it to me."
I bought fur clothes, a new tent and a pan, and after washing myself with hot water in the bathroom, I felt refreshed and more energetic. Wearing a new fur coat bought from a tailor shop, my body
All are warm.
"Mom, I'm back. I'm starving." A seven or eight-year-old boy broke into the house and suddenly saw two strange brothers sitting in the house. His sister was stunned, and he exited step by step.
Outside the door, he looked around and said, "Hey, this is my home."
"Toby, you're back." The aunt ran out of the kitchen: "Look at you, you're so dirty again. Go and wash up, we'll eat soon."
"Mom, who are they?" Toby wiped his nose with his hands covered with dirt, and blinked at the two strangers with a pair of big, smart eyes.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Alice waved and smiled: "Hello Toby, my name is Alice, and this is my master Bing Zhixie. We are going on a trip.
, passing by here, your kind mother let us rest at your house for one night."
"Travelling." Toby suddenly became excited: "Are you travelers? Are you coming from a far away place?"
"Go and wash Toby quickly." The aunt said, "It's very rude to be so dirty in front of your brothers and sisters."
"Yes." Toby ran into the bathroom, scrubbed and quickly ran out again. He came to Bing Zhixie and the others and said, "Brother and sister, isn't traveling interesting?"
Seeing how excited her son was, the aunt laughed and went into the kitchen again.
"Yeah." Alice nodded repeatedly: "Traveling is certainly interesting, but it is also very dangerous. I have only been traveling for a year, and I have encountered many, many things."
"One year, so long." Toby exclaimed: "Sister, you must have been to many places."
"I don't." Alice said, "I'm just a trainee traveler. My master has only been to many places."
"Ah, this brother is my sister's master!" Toby looked Bing Zhixie up and down and asked: "Then...isn't that brother very amazing?"
"Well, my master is a very powerful... very powerful magician." Alice said.
"Magician!" Toby looked at Bing Zhixie in surprise and shouted: "Mom, mom, come out quickly, come out quickly."
"What's going on?" the aunt ran out and asked.
Toby said: "Mom, this brother is a magician."
"Magician?" The aunt turned her attention to Bing Zhixie...
Ten minutes later, more than a dozen households in the village gathered around the only street in the village.
The residents shouted loudly: "Help me fix it, help me fix it. The spar lamp magic circle in my living room is broken. Please help me fix it quickly."
"The loudspeaker array at the village chief's house is no longer amplifying. Please help me go check it out."
"And me, all the water coming out of the water pipe in my bathroom is cold water, and the heating magic circle doesn't work."...
Seeing the overwhelming crowd of villagers surrounding them, Alice was really frightened and a little overwhelmed.
The area near the Arctic Circle is originally a remote area with not many people, and this small village is under the most remote Shengxue Mountains. There is no school in the village, and no one knows magic at all. Even the nearby small town dozens of miles away
, and there is no decent magician. Usually, if the magic circle used in daily life is broken, asking someone to repair it has to go to the city two hundred miles away to find someone. This time, a magician suddenly came to the village, and again
After repairing Toby's spar heater, why not quickly invite him to your home to help repair it too.
Bingzhixie was really hungry, and wanted to help them repair it after eating, but these villagers were so 'enthusiastic' that they all dragged him to their homes for dinner, so Bingzhixie had to agree to them first
Build a magic circle.
This repair lasted until around eight o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, there were not many residents in the village, otherwise there would be no rest until dawn tomorrow morning.
