"Where are you going?" asked Riven, standing in the doorway of the Rosard Mansion, tentatively. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The street was empty, Zhang Chao was standing dozens of meters away, he was raising his head and looking at the sky, this was an aristocratic neighborhood, and the flow of people was already small, so he gradually disappeared in the heavy snow.

Rui Wen's voice seemed a little hesitant, because she felt a little guilty in her heart, whether it was the hatred and anger in the eyes of those children who pointed her sword at Zhang Chao or those children.

Reason told her that she had done something wrong, because her willfulness had added an enemy to Zhang Chao, and she felt that Zhang Chao would definitely be angry.

But Zhang Chao didn't seem to be angry, just a little lonely, and when he heard her voice, he didn't look back, just stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky.

Rui Wen looked up a little confused, and a cold snowflake happened to fall on her smooth forehead at this moment, and she squinted slightly, as the cold water beads flowed onto her long eyelashes.

Then she let out a low cry, and through the two long eyelashes, she saw that the sky was full of snow-white snowflakes fluttering, dense, covering the sky, like goose feathers, and each crystal snow flake was born with a very standard hexagon, like a delicate work of art.

It is a miracle of nature, blooming a landscape that is not suitable for human beings, but is still extremely beautiful.

She looked at the sky like this, and gradually became a little stupid.

Zhang Chao squatted down, picked up a ball of snow and rubbed it in his hand, the blood gradually flowed down with the snow, and the cold and piercing feeling made him frown slightly.

Then he shook his hand, turned around and saw Rui Wen, who was still a little stunned, and then involuntarily showed a very gentle smile, like the afternoon sun, warm and refreshing.

"Let's go. He said.

Rui Wen rubbed her eyes, and her voice seemed a little cramped: "What...... What? Where are you going?"

Zhang Chao said in a reasonable tone: "I'm going to the festival - the Ice and Snow Festival, it's very interesting, I haven't had it yet." ”

――――――――

The Snow Festival is a very important festival for the people of Valoran, and even when the Rune Wars broke out and countless people died in the mouths of the terrible beast of war, most people still set aside time to celebrate the passing of the old year and the arrival of the new year.

The reason why the Ice Festival has such a great status in the hearts of Valorans has a lot to do with the unique climatic characteristics of the Land of Runeterra.

Because every winter, Valoran will usher in the most severe climate disaster of the year, the cold air flow called the cold king will go all the way south or north, causing food production to decrease, crops will freeze to death, poor people will freeze to starvation, and rich people will probably suffer a lot of unnecessary losses.

Even the people of Freljord, who were accustomed to enduring the cold, lost a large number of people and newborns because of the cold.

Perhaps only the Shurima could ignore this, so they never celebrated the Snow Festival - just kidding, how could a great desert that had not experienced snow once in decades have such a festival?

Zhang Chao feels that humans are actually very tenacious creatures, and as long as they can survive, they can add any possible joy to their numb life.

And the Ice and Snow Festival is probably a manifestation of people's happiness in suffering.

"It was lively. ”

Looking at the lively crowd on the street, Zhang Chao smiled, feeling very similar to the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year in China - lively and blazing, leaving behind the troubles and enjoying themselves.

Rui Wen's mood is also a little more cheerful, she actually doesn't particularly like snow, because snow looks beautiful, but it will bring a lot of harm to the soldiers, whether it is the obstruction of the grain route, the soldiers are frostbitten and freeze to death, and the crop yield is reduced and withered...... She didn't like it.

But this year may not be the same as in previous years, and although she didn't think about what the difference was, she still felt very happy.

It was probably the snow that covered up the inky evil, the cooling blood and the pungent smell of blood.

"This year's snow fell too late, so there were a lot of things that weren't prepared, such as ice sculptures, ski slopes, sail races, ......," she said

Zhang Chao suddenly let out a "huh", and looked at the row of people running happily in the snow in front of him, and he frowned.

Because these people are wearing white prison uniforms with Noxian characteristics, but because they are too dirty, the snow-white background of this prison uniform looks a little yellow, very ugly, but it can't stop their excitement.

"This is the custom of our Norman people to celebrate the Ice and Snow Festival, and on this day, most of the non-violent crime prisoners are pardoned and allowed to go home for the New Year. ”

"Over...... Year?" Zhang Chao chewed on the word and suddenly smiled, yes, maybe compared to the customs of China, the Ice and Snow Festival is the Spring Festival for the Valoran people.

Thinking of this, he thought of the end of this single scene, and it should be the New Year in a while, when he can take Hiko home, and then enjoy the reunion with his parents.

I wonder if my parents who are always urging themselves to find a girlfriend will be shocked?

That must be a wonderful life!

So he smiled again, with a bit of longing, and then slowly took a step back, picked up a handful of snow from the low tree next to him, and crumpled it into a ball.

Rui Wen shuddered, and turned around a little confusedly to find that Zhang Chao was holding a handful of snow there and laughing.

"You?" she shook her neckline a little angrily.

Zhang Chao was still smiling: "Come on, let's have a snowball fight." ”

Rui Wen still didn't move, glaring at Zhang Chao hatefully, until Zhang Chao was a little dumbfounded, and when she wanted to come over and apologize to her, she suddenly attacked and kicked a tree next to Zhang Chao.

Suddenly, a large pile of snow fell down, burying him under the snowdrift with Zhang Chao's blank expression.

"Hahaha-"

Rui Wen laughed out loud in a rare way, and was thinking about whether she should take advantage of the victory to pursue, when she heard a dark laugh ringing in her ears.

Bang - another handful of snow slipped into her neckline.

What are you kidding, is Ying Mystery learned in vain? Zhang Chao laughed a little self-consciously.

Rui Wen glared at her angrily and snorted, "You can play by yourself!"

Zhang Chao scratched his head in annoyance, feeling that he was a bit of a bully in doing this, and then proposed: "Then let's not use our strength, just like ordinary people." ”

I thought that Ruiwen, who had always been strong, would definitely refuse arrogantly, but I never thought that she would agree happily, and then said that she would sign a contract with Zhang Chao to avoid defaulting on the debt.

He didn't think much of it, he leaned over, and in an instant he was thrown in the face by a large snowball.

ps: It's going to be the New Year soon, so I dragged Changshi to let Zhang Chao also celebrate the New Year and relax.
