The town of Yomir, located halfway up the mountain, has two entrances, one leading to the bottom of the mountain and the other to the snow-capped Lingfeng via the valley road.

The Valley Road is a magical place where many of the town's legends originate. For example, people who walk at night occasionally hear whispers that are not there. There are also temperatures of more than 10 degrees, but in some places it will be inexplicably frozen.

The people of the town have always thought that it is a joke of the ice elves who live here, and not only will they not be frightened when they encounter it, but they will take it as a blessing from the elves.

Lai has always been skeptical of this statement. It was only when he really heard that wonderful, kind, non-human voice that he began to believe in the existence of elves and began to think about what elves were.

What is Genie? By the time Liber's mutation was over, he still didn't know. In Norse mythology, elves are humanoids with long ears, but this premise clearly doesn't apply in Semuria. There is also the elemental spirit that represents the foundation of the world - earth, water, fire, and wind, which is somewhat similar. However, there are also earth, water, fire, and wind in Qiyao, which is obviously different from the elves.

Since the Seven Yao Church has unified the elves into the goddess system, it is clear that it is not only a so-called elemental symbol, but also has a deeper meaning. It's just that the poor information in his hands is not enough to uncover the truth of the elves.

It wasn't until Lane got the "Infinite Library" and saw a lot of books that were either banned by the church, or the only books that had been annihilated in the long river of history, that he had a more intuitive understanding of elves.

Combining all the information, plus some brain holes, Li En came to his own understanding of elves: "elves" are such things that "exist" between the virtual and the real, and it is difficult to say whether they exist or not on the physical level, but they can have various effects on the world. And the size of the influence, or power, is also related to the beliefs of human beings.

When the Elven Faith disappears from a certain place, the Elven power will also disappear or cease to be activated, as can be seen from the fact that The Elven Way can only reach places where there are Elven Ruins, and there are still remnants of Elven Faith in those places.

The forbidden book "Elf Whispers" boldly puts forward a hypothesis that the elves have consciousness and can communicate, and when the thoughts are strong enough, the elves may respond.

In line with the theory of "bold assumptions, careful verification", which is common in any world, Li En once again returned to the valley where he practiced his sword and stood in front of the mysterious boulder.

"Strong thoughts, strong thoughts" Li En thought in pieces, and as a result, he stood stupidly for a long time and didn't come up with a reason, "I'll go, that damn author can't write clearly, how can it be a strong law?" How intense? It's so confusing that it doesn't make people have a good time. If you let me know who he is, you have to kill him. ”

"He's already dead, you don't need to cut it." Selesty said lightly, "This book should have been made a product of the Dark Ages by you. ”

"Uh" Lien's crazy state of mind was doused with a basin of cold water, sat on the ground, and said casually, "Elf dear, can you give a response?" I won't eat you again, will I show a spirit? ”

Of course, there will be no response to this kind of comic statement, and Li En didn't point to a response, he was purely entertaining himself.

But this approach was unexpectedly approved by Selesty: "It's a good thing to do, don't think about anything, just think about the voice of the elf." ”

"Ahh Li En is not stupid, and quickly realized, "Because it is simple, it is pure, and because it is pure, it is powerful, which is the same as the realm of 'nothing'." ”

And he, the best at the eight-leaf seven type is the seven-type "nothing", all the moves are based on "nothing" as the core, and "Senluo" is created as the skeleton. (The Remnant Fire Knife is not a fire knife in the strict sense, and anyone who has watched "Death" knows it.) ）

"Elves, respond to me, I want to see you." Lai lay down on the ground like this, and in the most casual posture, he emptied his mind.

The moist breeze of the valley swept through the tips of Rien's hair, the corners of Rien's eyes, the clothes of Rien, the color of heaven and earth, the sound of the world, all faded in this moment, and only one thought remained.

A thought is not extinguished, a hundred thoughts are not born, there is no thought, there is no thought, and there is no natural inaction. (The non-thinking of the Buddha and the Tao refers to the absence of distracting thoughts, not the emptiness of the brain.) ）

"Lala~" Like a man and a woman, like an old man and like a child, the sacred and evil voice sounded in Lien's ears, like a murmur, like a whisper, like an aria, the singing voice made people feel like they were in a dream.

Again, the language is completely incomprehensible as when I first heard it, but this time, Rien felt the simple and unique feelings of the elves—we have come to see you.

Can't you communicate if you don't understand the language? Can't communicate if you can't recognize the existence of the other person? No, at least not in this occult developed Semlia.

Pure thoughts, open hearts, bridge between two lives with completely different ways of living. There is no false mask between people, and there is no estrangement caused by individual differences.

The resonance between feelings is so simple, so pure, like two children can become close in just a few minutes, while adults can't do a little bit in a few years.

"What kind of existence are elves?" Rien didn't hide his doubts.

"Lala~" The elf read the doubt, but couldn't respond, just conveyed the intimacy to the past.

Feeling the immaculate closeness, Li En simply put aside his doubts and responded with kindness.

The elf's singing voice exuded joy and joy, and the singing voice gradually became clear, and the heavenly sound shook Riene's heart, and he was fascinated.

As the elf's song rose and fell, bits of white light appeared around Riene, and a layer of hoarfrost spread from the boulder to the valley

In the open space in front of Shu Huaze's house, Yaniras, who has fully integrated into this warm family, is frolicking with Bud the sled dog.

"Go, pick it up." The frisbee that she found out of nowhere was thrown into the air again and again, and she watched as Bud, who had a triple speed bonus, caught up with the frisbee like a gust of wind and caught it. Then he wagged his tail all the way and trotted back to Yani, looking like he was having a lot of fun.

A cool crystal fell on Yani's face, and she looked up at the sky, where the snow flakes were blooming.

"It's snow." After staying for three seconds, Yaniras reacted and rushed to the house, "Auntie, Auntie, it's snowing, quickly put away your clothes." ”

Lixia, who came out of the living room, was stunned when she heard this, and pulled Yani, who was in a hurry: "It's snowing? It's summer. ”

"Ah, yes, it's summer." Yaniras nodded, "But it's really snowing." ”

Lixia turned her head to look out the window, and a few pieces of sparkling were falling and were speechless

"Brother!" At the same time, Elyse, who was helping to clean up in Lane's room, changed her complexion, dropped the rag, and ran downstairs, "Sister Lixia, Sister Yani, do you see my brother?" ”

"Lane's words, I went out just now, saying that I was going to the valley." Yani replied that Lane had greeted her before leaving home.

"No, not good." Elyse's face turned pale, and she remembered the incident seven years ago, the abnormal weather, the abnormal monsters, and the abnormal brother.

She was so anxious that she didn't even bother to change her shoes, and ran quickly to the door.

"Elyse?" Yaniras didn't know why.

"Keep up." Lixia vaguely felt that the anomaly in the weather might have something to do with Rien.

The two girls were as light as swallows, and a few leaps caught up with Elyse, who left first, and lifted her up from left to right, running at full speed

In the valleys, the moist land has long been covered with hoarfrost, and even the babbling streams are shrouded in ice mist.

Li En, who was in the center of the ice and snow, was already surrounded by a white band of light, but there was no trace of ice and snow inside the band of light, and the temperature had not even dropped by one degree, as if he was completely isolated from the outside world.

With his eyes closed, he was immersed in the singing of the elves, forgetting the time and ignoring everything that was happening around him.

At this moment, he understood the feelings of the elves, their loneliness, and their wishes.

All they want is someone they can talk to, someone who can understand them.

Lane, on the other hand, was not the one they were waiting for.

(Guess who's the elf waiting for?) ）
