Chapter 348: Weili
"It seems that Jax is separated from us, and I hope he is all well and will meet again in the future."
After waiting on the beach for most of the night, still not seeing any fire, Karn made up his mind.
"It's almost dawn." Kai'Sa said.
The winter sun rises a little later, but even so, it's almost dawning, which means a new test is coming.
"The fishermen get up early and we can't stay here any longer. Find a place to observe the local population, and then wait for dawn before entering the village. ”
He lifted the boat up, and the black rumbling drove away like the boat had legs...... If this scene is seen, it may be frightening.
Karn told Kai'Sa to go out first, then restored the boat, erased the marks that had been pressed from the time he lay down, and then stepped out of the place, the waves washing away the footprints.
It was still cold outside, and there was an ancestral hall on the hill in the distance, but it was too far away for Karn to go that far to check on the ancestral hall, they were going to enter the village at dawn.
They came to the outskirts of the village, where the grass sheltered them from the cold wind, and waited for the sun to rise.
At sunrise, they hid in the woods halfway up the mountainside, looking at the small village at the foot of the mountain.
The villagers braved the bitter cold of winter and got up early to start their day's work.
Kai'Sa focuses primarily on the costumes of the locals, and can see different costumes changing on them until she is satisfied.
Karn noticed that there were Noxians walking around the streets.
Several warriors in armor randomly grabbed and interrogated people on the streets, and the red on the cloak was aggressive.
As if to force something, a couple of Noxian soldiers got into a verbal altercation with a man dressed as a mountain dweller, and then several Ionians rushed out of the alley and got into a scuffle with the soldiers.
Both sides were wounded, and the group was trying to cover the departure of the interrogated mountain man, and they did, disrupting the scene and fleeing in all directions, slipping into the crowd and disappearing.
"Early in the morning fighting?" Kai'Sa was clearly a little unintelligible and didn't understand why the fight was going on.
"The Noxian soldiers and the Navoli Brotherhood have always had conflicts, probably because they were attacked by the Brotherhood last night, and now they are out to take revenge."
"Isn't the war between Ionia and Noxus over?" Kai'Sa stared intently at the Noxian soldiers, as if because of the hanging of the lottery, and they glared at the villagers passing by and shouted back.
"Noxus did not win, but because the internal struggle stopped the offensive, and it is foreseeable that there will be another war." Karn said quietly that he didn't need to foresee it, in fact, he knew that the second war would happen in ten years, but he couldn't say it too absolutely.
"Perhaps in preparation for the next war, they did not withdraw all their soldiers. In addition to the military fortress built by Noxus on the island of Philo, there were outposts in many places in Navoli where Norwegian soldiers were stationed. Of course, it is also possible that Noxus did not have time to withdraw all the soldiers and had to leave some in Ionia. ”
"Alas, war...... I thought that after the war, there would be peace, but now that I look at it, there will be something left behind by the war forever. Kai'Sa lamented that Shurima had been going through war not long ago, and then some cities in the north had become the territory of Noxus.
"Hatred or what......" Karn jumped off the tree and turned back to Kai'Sa with both hands, ready to pick her up. But the war has nothing to do with us, we will leave before the next big war. ”
Kai'Sa jumped down as well, being held by Karn's arm. She asked, "If these people who started the war knew about the existence of the Void, would they still be so keen on human internal friction?" ”
"Words are unfounded, they have to see the horrors of the Void before they can notice this terrible threat."
The people living at the bottom are actually similar to the people of the desert settlement that Kai'Sa and the others met earlier, and they can't make a choice. And those high-level leaders, will they cross thousands of mountains and rivers to explore the underground of Shurima? No, they only believe what they see.
"But then it will be too late." Kai'Sa said.
When the Void rushes out of the surface, who else can stop them?
"It's still up to us."
The Noxian soldiers had left, and the two had come to the village in search of the inn.
The buildings on the roadside are all the same, all of them are made of trees, and then wrapped in layers of fences and screens, which look very natural and harmonious.
"Before I came, I thought Ionia's house was hanging from a tree branch, but I didn't expect it to be a ground building surrounded by several trees, how did they do it?" Kaisha's eyes were all on the houses on her left and right, and she didn't look at the road, just took Karn's arm and followed.
"The work of a weaver who weaves the growing trees into the desired shape, and the main structure of a house comes out. In Ionia, the material realm and the spiritual realm are relatively close, so there are more strange people here. ”
Women and men have different concerns, and while Kai'Sa observes the exterior of these buildings, Karn deduces their functions one by one.
For example, this is a private house, that is a wine shop, this one is a teahouse, and so on......
"Weaver? Similar to the masons elsewhere? It's amazing, I can't understand why there are only such people here. ”
"It's amazing, but it's not that hard to understand. The two realms are like the front and back of a leaf, and the river of magic is like the veins of the leaf, and the thinner the leaf, the easier it is to see the veins. ”
The explanation was simple, and Kai'Sa nodded, and went back to the house.
A teahouse on the side of the road caught her eye, a house woven using several different trees, each with a different color of flowers in different seasons. Now, the teahouse is a snow-white plum blossom color, and there are many pale pink lanterns hanging from it, which can easily arouse the hearts of girls.
"It's so pretty." She said, though she didn't say anything that would embarrass Karn about wanting a room like this.
"Would you like to go in for a cup of tea?" Karn asked with a smile.
"Let's find an inn first." Kai'Sa hadn't forgotten what they were here for. She suddenly remembered Taliyah: "Taliyah can also weave houses, but people use stones. ”
"Taliyah......" Karn remembered the little girl who had gone to Freeljord for training, and who was supposed to have come to Ionia. I haven't seen her for more than half a year, her control should be getting more and more exquisite, and weaving stones shouldn't be a problem. ”
"I don't know what the weather is like there."
"It's a lot colder than we are."
"I hope she's doing well."
