Chapter 53: Snow Hare
It's snowing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The goose-feather-like snow is silent and fluttering.
The snow scene of the steppe is very different from other places.
The snow scene in the mountains or plains is a three-dimensional painting, and the grassland in the snow is a rice paper that unfolds.
The snow scenery in the mountains or plains has high mountains, rivers, woods, and houses, and naturally there are many shades crisscrossing the country. And the grassland under the heavy snow is nothing, there are no mountains to set off, no woods to render, not even houses to embellish, only a pure white world without shelter.
The whiteness of this side, along with the heaven and earth, gave a great shock to people who had never seen the snow scene of the grassland, including Lane and Elyse, who grew up in the northern frontier of the empire. Although the snowy scenery of Yumir is beautiful, it is far less magnificent than the scene of the white sky.
The only drawback, probably because it is too pure, it will inevitably seem a little monotonous, which makes people want to do something to embellish it.
"Hey, look at me."
Miriam took a handful of snow in each hand, scattered it at Faye and Yaniras beside her, and then ran away.
"Ah, Miriam-chan, stop me."
“targetlock!”
Yaniras and Fihin let it go, and each snowball began to fight back, and a snowball fight began.
Because he was too crazy, Gaius, Macchias, and Elliot were soon involved, and finally it evolved into a male and female war, 3v3.
Seeing that the battlefield was expanding, Lane and the others slipped away early to avoid being affected by the pond fish.
"Brother, let's make snow rabbits." Elysée suggested.
"Snow Rabbit, what's that?" Elphin asked curiously. Heimdall, the crimson capital, has a pleasant climate, and only a handful of times a year can see snow, so there is no culture about snow.
"The snow rabbit is our traditional lucky object in Yumir, and according to my mother, it seems that it has been a long time ago, and it has something to do with the ice elves that have been sheltering us." Whenever she talks about these things, Elysée is happy, because they are precious memories that she cannot replace.
"Snow Rabbit, huh?" Alyssa muttered to herself, "Happy snow rabbit, pray for peace." ”
"Huh?" Elyse was stunned, "Why would Miss Alyssa know?" Did my brother tell you? ”
"I don't think so." Alyssa shook her head slightly.
"I think?" Elysée wondered.
"Because it was a long time ago, I can't remember who told me." Alyssa spread out her hand, caught a few falling snowflakes, and watched them slowly melt by the temperature of her palm, stunned, "Nine years ago in the winter, I used to come to Yomir with my family. At that time, Dad was still alive, Sharon hadn't come yet, and Grandpa took the whole family on a trip to Yumir, and I should have been in contact with snow rabbits during that time. ”
"Ah, maybe Brother Lane and Elysée met Miss Alyssa when you were kids." Elphine laughed.
"Nine years ago... My brother is 8 years old and I am 6 years old, so maybe I have seen it. Elysée also smiled, "Then let's make a snow rabbit together, the full version of the snow rabbit has to collect a lot of materials, and we can't do it here, let's make a simple version." ”
"Hmm!" Alyssa and Alfin nodded in unison.
"First we have to find clean snow, in the legend of Youmer, the Ice Elves are pure elves and don't like to be dirty... Ah, there is..."
The grassland is so big, there are many places that people have not stepped on, and clean snow is everywhere.
"Ball up the snow like this, pinch it tightly, and make it fat, oval." Elysée pinched the snow balls in a similar way to pinching rice balls, "Okay, that's fine." ”
"Then find two red fruits as eyes and two vegetable leaves as ears, okay, done!"
Elyse held the snow rabbit in her hand, and the joy from the heart was exactly the same as when she was a child.
"Make a wish to the snow rabbit, make a wish to the snow rabbit when it snows, and the ice elves will definitely hear it."
Li En is not talking nonsense, but the inheritance of Yumir is like this, maybe it is true, maybe it is just a comfort to the soul, or maybe the voice in the territory of the wind elves is simply transmitted to the ice elves, but what is wrong with this?
"Uh-huh~" Elyse closed her eyes and silently made a wish in her heart.
"I'm done, Jiangjiang~" Alfin put the snow rabbit next to Elyse's snow rabbit, shook his fingers, and prayed sincerely, "I hope that my father, my mother, Cedric, and my brother will be safe, I hope that Elyse, Brother Lien, and everyone will be safe, and I hope that the civil war will end as soon as possible." ”
"It's so cute." Alyssa looked at her work and was satisfied.
"What does Alyssa want?" Lane asked.
"Wish, huh?" Alyssa gently smoothed a corner of the snow rabbit and turned her eyes to her mother and grandfather, who were chatting with Elder Ivan and Granny Jeta, "I hope the family can get along as before." ”
"Then make a wish, and I will make a wish for you too."
"Thank you, Ryne."
Two snow rabbits side by side, teenagers and girls side by side.
Pieces of crystal sparkled around the two of them, drifting to the far south.
I hope that without Yumir, the Ice Elves who accompany Xiaodi can hear Alyssa's heart.
After a few dozen seconds like this, Riene stood up, turned his head sideways to Alyssa, and said, "The ice elves must have heard it." ”
"yes, definitely."
Suddenly, a sentence echoed in Alyssa's mind.
"Don't cry, this is for you, cheer up. Don't worry, I'll take you-"
There is no beginning and no end, and it stops abruptly, but it is so familiar and warm.
"It's okay, are you squatting for too long and your legs are numb?"
"It's fine." Alyssa raised her head and met Rien's smiling eyes.
At this moment, a long-sealed memory quietly emerged.
It was a story about a snow rabbit, a little boy with black hair and a little girl with blond hair.
The same ice and snow, the same posture.
The little girl squatted in the snow and cried.
The little boy comforted him.
"Don't cry, this is for you, cheer up."
"Woo... A bunny made of snow? The girl's hazy teary eyes were attracted to the snow rabbit in the boy's hand.
"Look, you've got snow all over your head." The boy handed the little rabbit to the girl and gently brushed the snow off her body, "Don't worry, I'll send you back to the village, follow me." ”
"Hmm!" For no reason, the girl felt relieved.
As time passed, the girl's hair grew longer and longer, and the double ponytail, which was not even up to her neck as a child, is now almost up to her waist (in fact, it happened to pass the ball).
The boy's face is becoming more and more mature, but the concerned look still has traces of childhood.
"Ahh
Thanks to Lane for holding her in time, she didn't let her fall on her ass.
Such a big movement naturally alarmed Alfin and Elyse, who made a wish together.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"I, I remembered." Alyssa said incoherently, "That's what you told me about the Snow Rabbit Ryne." ”
"Huh?" x2
Elysée and Alfin looked at each other, and for no reason there was a sense of crisis, but the latter's sense of crisis was quickly overshadowed by the fire of gossip - as if something very interesting had happened.
Alyssa settled down and said, "When I came to travel to the Umir family 9 years ago, I accidentally got lost in the snowy mountains, and then met a boy there, and he sent me back to the village, it must be you!" ”
"Aha." Lane touched his nose and avoided Alyssa's verifying gaze, "Could it be a mistake?" ”
"I remember your expression, and - Miss Elyse, are there any other dark-haired and black-eyed boys about my age?" Alyssa pressed closely.
"No, only my brother meets this condition in the entire Umir." Although the sense of crisis in her heart is getting stronger and stronger, Elyse will not lie, this is her reserve.
"Lane!"
"Brother!"
"Brother Dawn~"
"Okay, I'll admit it." Lane raised his hand in surrender, "I sent you back, and I saw President Irina and your father from afar. ”
"Brother~ give me a good explanation." Elyse's eyes were clouded.
"Elyse, do you remember? What did I do every day during that time? ”
"Reading my father's collection of books, going to the Valley Road or Lingfeng to practice court swordsmanship, helping out with Luck at the ropeway station, arguing with Sister Maple, and telling me ......stories," Elyse counted with her hands, and she would never forget her brother's affairs.
"I remember it so clearly, I really like my brother's Elyse the most." Elphine teased.
"Mo~Elfin!" Alyssa, Tova, Elyse, and Dubarry's signature moves are recreated.
"That day, I was practicing swords in the valley, but then it snowed and I couldn't continue, so I had to go home, and on the way I saw a girl squatting on the side of the road crying. I went to ask her what was wrong, but she didn't answer me, she just kept crying, so I had no choice but to make a snow rabbit, and then she stopped crying. ”
"So, then why didn't you leave your name? Even if I forget, my mother and grandfather will never forget. Alyssa's face flushed.
"Think about it... I didn't seem to think much about it at the time, and I was in a hurry to go home and tell Elyse a story. As a child, Elyse loved to sit by the fireplace and listen to my stories for hours, especially on snowy days. Speaking of this, Li En pretended to sigh exaggeratedly, "Ha~ That's why I've read so many books, otherwise there is no story to tell, and Elyse will cry." ”
"Mo~ brother!" Elyse was disrespectful.
"And if I'm not mistaken, you didn't say a word on the way back to your hometown, and I was still wondering if I scared you by the appearance of blood on my back with a sword on my back."
"Huh? Didn't you go to practice swords? How can there be blood? Alyssa had no memory of the bloodstains, perhaps because she was too scared to notice them, or maybe she had forgotten them for too long.
"The blood of the monsters, when it snows, there are more monsters in the mountains than usual, and there will be snow apes and sheep on the valley road where there are no monsters in the usual way, and they will be killed when they encounter it on the way back. The snow ape sheep is the weakest monster in the mountains, and now it took a lot of effort to defeat the sword, so that I didn't have much strength to speak on the way back. ”
"That's right... Sorry, because I was so scared at the time, I forgot about it quickly. I'm sorry, Lane, I haven't said thank you all the time, I'm really sorry. Alyssa bowed her head deeply, "Also, thank you for saving me at that time." ”
"Apologize and thank you at the same time... Well, I've taken it all. Lane smiled.
"In other words, Brother Ryne, you haven't forgotten Miss Alyssa." Elfin fears that the world will not be in chaos.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the eyes of Elysée and Alyssa became strange.
The former is sinister: "Is this true, brother?" ”
The latter complicated: "Well, then why didn't you tell me all this time?" ”
"Uh... How can you let me take the initiative to speak up about this kind of thing? ”
Could it be that Rie said, "I saved your life back then, so make a promise, girl." "That's a little too low.
"Yes, too. I always feel a little happy and a little unhappy. Alyssa smiled embarrassedly and muttered, "Wait, it's a bit inappropriate to ask, but I wonder if your decision to be Mom's advisor has something to do with it?" ”
"Yes." "Let's put it this way, because President Irina and I will have a foundation of mutual trust, and of course both me and she will be rewarded a thousand times over—ah, wouldn't it be a little arrogant to say that." ”
"No, no, that's handsome." x2
Elysée and Alyssa showed an astonishing synchronicity, in line with what Alyssa had said a few months ago - "I feel like I'm going to be a good match with your sister." ”
The synchronization was not over yet, and after realizing that they had said the same thing, the two women glanced at each other, and each saw the embarrassment on each other's faces, causing Elfin to giggle.
"Don't, don't laugh." x2
This time, Rien couldn't help but laugh.
In the end, Elysée and Alyssa couldn't help but laugh.
The laughter of the four spread farther and farther to the battlefield of the snowball fight.
So, a snowball flew over, and Rien was confused.
Soon, the second, the third, the fourth......
Alyssa, Elyse, and Elphin also suffered.
The four of them, whose eyebrows and hair were stained with snow slag, looked at each other, and they all bent down and picked up a handful of snow and began to counterattack.
"Sister Yani, you actually attacked me!"
"Miriam, don't run."
"Fei, you too."
"Elliot, Marchias, you two wait for me."
A snowfall that stopped the war brought a long-lost laughter.
Only if you have lost, will you know how to cherish it.
It is only through war that we know the value of peace.
May the fighting cease, and may peace last forever.
ps: Treacherous youth: I like war.
Protagonist group: Get out of here! (To be continued.) )
