"And where is he now?"

"Probably fishing by the lake." The woman said.

"Fishing?" Karn froze.

"There's a lake nearby, I'll take you to see it." Easy to say.

The three of them turned to the lake, and saw no one but a lamppost.

On the dock, Jax sat cross-legged on the edge of the lake, holding a fishing rod and standing next to a lamppost, the flickering flames could be seen from afar.

Jax heard footsteps, turned his head to look, and saw that it was Karn, and turned to continue fishing.

"You're here?"

This indifferent look is inexplicably infuriating.

"Do I want to bring you some boiled eggs back?" Karn said with an itch of teeth.

"Hard-boiled eggs soaked in vinegar will be easier to peel."

Karn was speechless and went to TMD's boiled eggs.

"What are you doing here?" Kai'Sa asked.

"Obviously, I'm fishing." As he spoke, Jax caught a fish that had gathered a year's worth of fat and looked unusually fat.

"Why did you come up with the idea of fishing?"

"Self-cultivation, adjust the state, and meet the battle."

"Fight whom?" Karn sensed a sense of anticipation from Jax's words, and Jax had never fought him so seriously, so the battle he was expecting was definitely not him.

"I heard that there is a kendo master who comes back every year, so I have the cheekiness to stay here until the master comes back and is willing to have a fight with me."

It turned out that the drunkard didn't mean to drink, and Karn said how Jax would spend his time fishing.

The two of them looked at Yi behind them at the same time, obviously knowing that the kendo master that Jax wanted to challenge was talking about Yi, only Jax didn't know.

And Yi touched his beard and didn't know what he was thinking, looking at the back of Jax fishing, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

That's really ...... It's fate.

"I heard you want to have a fight with me?" Finally, Yi spoke, pretending to be a newcomer.

Karn wanted to laugh.

Heard? Listen to whom? Listen to you.

It's another small detail, these masters are not straightforward at all.

Jax looked back again, taking a closer look at Yi and the piercing sword he was carrying.

Realizing that the person he had been waiting for all these days was in front of him, he threw away his fishing rod and reached out to grasp the lamppost that burned with the eternal flame beside him.

A fiery battle intent spread along the glacial lake.

Yi felt a little wrong: "Wait, it's not now, I'm not in the state right now." ”

Jax's fighting spirit was extinguished: "When will you be willing to fight with me?" ”

"When I'm done dealing with the matter at hand, I don't have any worries."

"Okay." Jax put down the lamppost again and continued fishing, without asking Yi what he was going to do.

Karn was stunned, this is the appointment?

Is this too casual or informal?

But don't think too much about the things that have already been decided, just enjoy the duel between the masters when the time comes. He hadn't seen Jax use his full strength, let alone make a move.

After seeing that Jax was okay, Karn's mood relaxed, and he and Kai'Sa walked hand in hand by the lake.

If it weren't for the fact that the ice on the lake was too thin and transparent, you could have gone up and walked around.

"Winter in Ionia passes quickly, and if you don't be careful, the snow will be over, so cherish it." The latitude of Ionia varies greatly, and Barou'e is located in the center, and the winters are much shorter than in some parts of the north.

"I'll cherish it."

Kai'Sa reached into Karn's sleeve, cherishing the interlocking of fingers.

Jax fished until dusk, and Yi also meditated on dusk, and the fish in the bamboo basket was enough for a few people to eat, so he simply made a picnic by the lake.

"I'm too tired of just eating fish, you two, go to someone nearby to excuse the pot, and ask for another handful of rice, I want to cook porridge."

Jax was not polite to the people, and Karn, seeing that he was old, let him take Kai'Sa to the village to borrow rice. On the road, you can avoid two old men and do something that you can't show to others.

Then he borrowed a knife from Yi to hang fish scales and change the flower knife, Yi hesitated, and finally took out the short knife.

These two knives hanging on his copper boots are actually the relics of his parents, everyone in Wuji Village will have a knife that symbolizes their identity, and the disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect are all selected from the village.

Normally, this kind of saber is not suitable for dealing with fish, but thinking that his parents are both swordsmiths and villagers who accompany fish and rice, the last trace of mustard in Yi's heart has also dissipated.

It is easy to scrape the scales and cut the fish, and the cooking of the fire is all done by Jax.

Karn was happy to be idle, just waiting for dinner.

As a man who has lived for more than 3,000 years, and the grilled fish has a unique flavor, it seems that Jax is not only interested in boiling eggs and fighting.

The thought that this is a fish made by the two masters makes it even more delicious.

There is no inn in the small village at the foot of the mountain, and when they return to the village, they can only find someone to spend the night.

The people of the village are very kind and willing to receive them as strangers.

Kai'Sa and Karn are partners, and they only need a bed, so it's easy to settle in. They were warmly received by an elderly couple.

"My Daida is married to the provinces, this is the bed she used to sleep in, it's a little small, you can just take it."

The old woman spread the quilt on the bed and exchanged words with the two of them.

The bed is a single bed, which is indeed a bit small, but it is not impossible for two people to squeeze in, and the partner will not mind this. With Kaisha's sleeping position, the single and double beds were the same, and she always had to lie on Karn's body anyway.

The old woman deliberately wiped the bed board with a cloth, the living wood bed board was not too cold, and the sun-dried quilt was full of the smell of sunlight, which was comfortable.

"Mother-in-law, why did your daughter marry into another province? Is the person you like a stranger? Kai'Sa knew that Daida was a daughter, and she was interested in getting married.

"It's all because of that fire." The old man sat by the window and smoked a cigarette stick: "After the acid and poisonous water left behind by the fire distorted the magic of this place, something bad often happened in this land. My son-in-law was actually a local, but Daida happened to be pregnant at that time, and she didn't want the evil spirit to affect the fetus, so the young couple discussed moving to other provinces to settle down. ”

Kai'Sa remembered the shepherd boy she had met during the day, and there was indeed a bad aura in this place.

"Then why don't you move out with you, isn't it good to stay with your children?"

"This land has nurtured our generation, and we are reluctant to give it up when we have feelings." He puffed out a puff of cigarette and coughed.

Kaisha's heart suddenly throbbed, why Cassadine was reluctant to go with them, there was an answer at this moment.

"We're okay, there are still a few lonely old families like us in the village, and we are very glad that we gave birth to a girl." The old woman held the kettle and poured a glass of water for the old man.

"Why?"

"A lot of boys went to the army and never came back."

Kai'Sa didn't say anything more, war is so cruel.
