160 Hurried at the Winter Veil Festival
"It's snowing in the Plaguelands, too?" Anvena said with joy as the snowflakes fell from the sky
Although she has only recently entered the Plaguelands, Avena is always unaccustomed to the dark brown and gloomy land in front of her in the white Alterac Valley all year round, and even the sky is a strange gray-brown color. And now that the snow has just fallen, not to mention that the earth will change into snow clothes again, even the sky seems to be much brighter in an instant, and even Anvina's mood is brighter.
Xia looked up at the sky, stretched out her hand to take a snowflake, and said with a little melancholy, "Yes...... After all, it's probably the Winter Veil Festival now. ”
"Winterveil, what's that?" Anvina asked curiously.
Rowling turned to Avena in some surprise. "Isn't this a holiday that all humans should know?"
"Huh?" Anvina was also a little surprised, and turned to Dia for help.
Sia was a little amused. "Didn't your parents ever tell you the story of Grandpa Winter?"
Anwena lowered her head a little embarrassed, grabbed Xia and said coquettishly: "No, Xia you can talk to me." ”
Anvina's coquettishness made Rowling next to her hot. "Actually, Anvina, you can ask me too!" Rowling pointed to her nose and offered herself.
"Don't!" Avena glared at Rowling in surprise, "Didn't you just say that this is a human festival?" How do you elves know? ”
Carré burst out laughing out loud at the gray Rowling.
"Humph!" Rowling glared at Carré with a grunt.
"The origin of the Winter Veil Festival is because of a legendary figure, Grandpa Winter." With her wide-eyed eyes and a curious look on her baby, Avena felt as if she was telling a story to Anduin. "It was an old man who had come in a wide cloak for the winter. With the arrival of Grandpa in winter, he will cover the earth with a winter curtain, and the whole land will be covered in silver. And this winter's snow-covered land will bring farmers a good harvest year in the coming year. So, in order to thank Grandpa Winter for helping us, people chose a day in December when it always snows as the beginning of the Winter Veil Festival. Because everyone believes that in the winter the moment Grandpa set foot in Azeroth. Just welcome him and get the wealth he has bestowed. As a result, the Winter Veil Festival brings many people together to celebrate, expecting Grandpa Winter to share the joy with them at the end of winter and before the beginning of the new year. ”
"Wow! Sounds so lively!! Hearing such a legend for the first time, Anvina's eyes couldn't help but widen in longing.
"Well, it's really lively in the main city." Unwilling to be left out in the cold, Rowling interjected: "In fact, for this kind of festive festival, we elves will join in the fun now." Every year during the Winter Veil Festival, Silvermoon City also holds feasts and various celebrations. Avena, do you want to come with me? ”
"When we get to Silvermoon City, read s;. It's almost time for the Winter Veil Festival to end. Carré quietly demolished Rowling's stage.
"You can use flying!" Rowling "kindly" came up with the idea. "The main thing is Anvina, do you want to go?"
To Rowling's surprise. Anvina, who was very curious about the baby, was unmoved.
"No," Anwena shook her head and said with a serious face, "The festival of mankind must be more flavorful to go to the main city of mankind." Of course. I think the elves should be pretty good. But it's too dangerous for Carré to fly here. I can't let everyone go on an adventure with me because of my willfulness alone. ”
Carré clenched his fist to his lips and coughed gently, hiding the uncontrollable upward arc of the corners of his mouth.
And Rowling, who touched a soft nail, could only praise Anwena stupidly: "Anvina, you are really a good and considerate girl." ”
"Still, I think. The Chapel of the Light's Wish will also have some simple festive decorations. Xia thought for a moment and said to Avena, "After all, the Winter Veil Festival is for humans. It's a very important holiday. ”
"Really?" Anvena was a little happy. Although she doesn't care about it, she still yearns for this festival she heard of for the first time.
And Xia obviously understands Avena's mood too. "During the Winter Curtain Festival, the owners of each inn will decorate the inns carefully, so that every customer can feel the warm and strong atmosphere of the Winter Curtain Festival. There is also a small inn in the Chapel of the Wish of Light. The proprietress is a very careful and taste-conscious beauty. I can't guarantee anything else. But I'm guessing she'll be setting up the Christmas tree and slacking off. ”
"Christmas trees? Lazy parasitism? These two words, which she had never heard before, made Anvina confused for a while.
"Christmas trees are evergreens that are cut down for the Winter Veil festival and placed indoors to decorate fir trees and pines with candles and ornaments. And mistletoe means auspicious, safe, and dear. Legend has it that couples who kiss under mistletoe will stay together for eternity......"
As he spoke, Thea remembered his past - every time at the end of the Winter Veil feast, he would always pull himself and sneak away to a no-man's corner. And there was always the lax parasitism he had prepared in advance...... A faint melancholy made her not even pay attention to the fact that she didn't say any more.
Fortunately, the other three didn't notice either.
"Wow...... It's so romantic!! Anvina, who is at the most romantic age for girls, couldn't help but fold her hands and look forward to it. Under the parasitic kiss, it will last forever......" said Anvina's face turned red.
Avena's coquettish demeanor was shy, and Carré and Rowling on the side were overwhelmed for a while.
"Ahem...... Anvina~" Rowling relied on her gender advantage and grabbed Anvina's other arm. "Do you already have a candidate?"
Avena's face turned even redder. It was as if it was about to burn, and he even stammered. "I didn't ...... No......"
"Little girl!" Rowling poked her forehead lightly and smiled, "You really should have a mirror to look like now...... You can't lie~! ”
Anvena was embarrassed by Rowling's words, and buried her face in Thea's arms reluctantly. "Thea, you Rowling, she bullied me."
"Alright." Carré pulled Rowling away. "Let's talk about it when we get to the hotel. I'm afraid that the only thing in the whole plague land is the Chapel of Light's Wish, and there is a small inn on the other side, right? yes, Shia. ”
"That's right." Thea affirmed. Being made such a fuss by Rowling also interrupted her feeling of feeling nostalgic. Sia collected her emotions and struggled to put the memories of the past behind her. "But where do we settle down tonight?"
"Huh? Isn't it okay to camp in the wilderness? Anvina asked, puzzled, "Isn't it like this in the Alterac Valley?" Carré released a little dragon power, and wild animals did not dare to approach, it was very safe. ”
"Hmm...... Now it's better for Carré's dragon power to be easily unexposed. "How could Rowling let go of a good opportunity to dismantle Caretta? Rowling said seriously, fortunately, the person who teased Avena just now was not her at all. "After all, this place is full of the eyes and ears of the Scourge Legion. Ants bite elephants to death, and it's not good if a lich gets heard of it - let's not get into unnecessary trouble. ”
"Also, it's not very safe in the wild. The Undead Legion is nocturnal and has a variety of mutated scavenging creatures. "We are not familiar with the environment here, and if we set up camp in a hurry, they might find out." ”
Carré was a little dismissive of Rowling's statement, but after all, Anvena was by his side, so it was indeed better to be careful. He thought about it for a moment, and suddenly thought of a place.
"Remember Chromie?" He said excitedly.
As soon as Luo Lin thought of the appearance of Lori, the bronze dragon eldest sister of the inner royal sister, she couldn't help but have a bitter face. "She's too impressive...... How could it be forgotten!! But what do you mention her for? ”
"Because she said she was experimenting in Andorhar, in the Plaguelands." Carré ignored Rowling's questioning and explained to Avena and Thea. "I think we can go to Hadohar for a night, after all, it's where Chromie is located, and it's always safer than if we were camping in the wild."
"That's a good idea." Thea agreed. "And according to our footsteps, we should be able to reach Anhador just before dark."
"Bekro didn't touch it, and it ran into that guy again......" Rowling muttered under her breath.
Although Rowling didn't say who the guy was, the other three understood who she was referring to.
"Will it happen?" Anvena was a little apprehensive, and thunder.
"Probably not," Carré said uncertainly.
Xia hesitated for a moment and comforted Anvina: "It's okay, what if...... If we do run into him, he won't do anything to us. If...... He really got his hands on it...... I'm desperate to get you out safely. ”
Thea's words made Anvina's heart panic for a while.
"Well, I'm just making an assumption...... What are you so nervous about? Florina's expression was wrong, and she immediately jumped out and smiled to adjust the atmosphere. I don't think our luck will be like this, haven't we met him all the way? ”
"That's right." Carré chimed in with Rowling. "And we don't have a better option than Anhadol right now."
Xia also smiled: "Anyway, it's the most important thing to hurry." You're going to get dark soon. If you don't hurry, it's too bad you can't get to Anhador before dark! ”
Hearing the three people around her say this, Anvina can only relax for the time being. The group hurried towards Anhador. (To be continued)
