Chapter 107: Sister Ice
This time the little girl was not as stubborn as she had just been, because she knew that if she continued like that, she would really be abandoned.
She briefly told us about her experience, and her tone was still very cold and sad, maybe she was like this.
The little girl's name was Lily, and she was a mage, and although she looked like a little girl, she was actually an adult, but she didn't tell me how old she was.
Her parents died in the tribal conflict, and she wandered alone, and later came to the village and was captured as an evil shrine maiden.
The reason is that several people have died of illness since she came here, and no one has been sick here for many years.
So people suspected that she had brought the disease, and began the purification ritual, which lasted for seven days, and it was the last day when we came.
To be honest, I think her story is full of holes, her name is like a casual nonsense, and she doesn't fluctuate when it comes to age and residence, or when it comes to the death of her parents.
And it is impossible for a little girl to travel alone in such a dangerous place without enough strength.
But I'm not telling the truth, maybe she has her own troubles, anyway, our relationship is a bit delicate.
I have no doubt that even if she hadn't helped just now, she wouldn't have been killed by the villagers.
We hurried again in the night, and then rested to make sure that no one was chasing us, and because we had brought two tents, we gave one to Lily, but she refused.
She said she didn't like the feeling of being covered, so she slept on the bullock cart, and the cold had no effect on her at all.
Not only was Lily able to sleep soundly in the snow and ice, but she was still lying on the back of the Ironhorn when Riven and I woke up, and the wide cow's back was a comfortable bed for her.
It took me a lot of effort to get her up, she didn't get out of bed, she just seemed a little weak, but it didn't take long for her to get back to normal.
I opened the map, and yesterday's route didn't work, so I found a slightly farther road, which was to the northwest.
You have to hurry, because you don't have much jerky and cheese with you when you set off, and you need to replenish it urgently, but you are not afraid of running out of water to drink on the snowfield.
"You guys seem to be very powerful, and you were so quick when you ran away yesterday."
"What are you going to do? Show me? ”
"You've chosen the wrong place, you shouldn't venture to Sejuani's territory, she's a fervent supporter of the martial tradition, and most of the tribes she rules support it, and outsiders are vulnerable to provocation."
"Let's go all the way northwest, it's Ash's territory, she's much better talking than Sejuani, and though it's stupid to keep calling herself a descendant of Avarosa, it's relatively peaceful."
"You also talk about whether it's good to talk or not, don't keep me talking alone."
Lily was not too tired to snort all the way, as long as I opened my mouth, my mouth felt dry, and the cold wind poured into my throat like a desiccant.
"Would you like to be quiet for a while, and we'll talk when we leave the snowfield, I suspect you're a snowman, not afraid of the cold at all."
"Okay, then we'll talk later, besides, I'm not a snowman, I'm an iceman."
I didn't doubt her words at all, and now it looks like she's an iceman.
We followed the route on the map for several days before we finally arrived at Ash's territory.
It's a little warmer and the vegetation is more lush, and of course, that's all relative to the ice.
"yes, it's finally here." Lily jumped out of the bullock cart, looking pleased.
"You seem to like it here? Is your home here? ”
"Of course, it's good to leave Sejuani's territory, at least your lives are safe, and you're not as dull as an ice sculpture at last."
"You only talked about Sejuani and Ash, I remember that Freljord had another ruler, right?"
"One more? How did I not know, isn't Freljord fighting for supremacy over Ash and Sejuani? ”
"Lisandro, don't you know?"
"Li, Li, Lisandro? What Lisandro? I haven't heard of it. ”
Lily had become distracted again, clearly lying, and it was easy to see that she had become like this every time she lied.
I still know a little bit about the main forces of Freljord, such as the three major forces of Ash, Sejuani, and Lisandro, as well as many tribes such as berserkers and barbarians.
There are also cute creatures such as snowmen and Poro, and as for the three ancient gods of Orn, Volibel, and Anivia, they are a bit ethereal, and I don't know if they exist.
Why did Lily hide Lisandro's existence? It seems to have a close relationship with her life experience and current experience.
But it soon became clear to me that this was not the case, because none of the people in the village we were in knew Lisandro or even heard of the name.
Isn't Lily lying? Did she really not know about Lisandro?
But there is nothing surprising that after coming to this world, many places are different from what I knew before, but Ashbisserjuani is gentle and this has not changed.
The people in this village are very friendly, and when they learned that we were adventurers, they offered to give us a lot of food, and of course we had to be paid.
Speaking of Ash, they all praise her, calling her "Queen Ash" with reverence, and firmly believing that she is the reincarnation of Avarosa.
I don't know who Avarosa is, but when I asked, the people here said in unison: "It's the one who put an end to the chaos."
In ancient times, Freljord was very chaotic, and the tribes fought their own battles, and later two heroes appeared: Avarosa and Serilda.
They each united the eastern and western parts of Freljord, and became sisters in life and death to maintain the hard-won peace.
However, after the death of the two men, due to the disagreement of their successors, there was a conflict between the east and the west, and then they also fell apart internally.
It wasn't until recently that Ash reunited western Freljord and once again established a stable order, and the chaos was put to rest.
She claimed to have been guided by Avarosa, as evidenced by the crystal bow in her hand: no one had been able to use it since Avarossa's death.
And Sejuani is also in the process of unifying the east, but she does not rely on help, but by force.
Quite a few people say that she is a descendant of Serilda, but this has never been proven by her personally.
So Ash's tribe is called the Avarosa tribe, but Sejuani's tribe is not called Serelda, but the Claws of Winter.
It was just an ordinary village, nothing special, and we left after learning some information and replenishing supplies.
I was going to leave Lily here, but she insisted on going with us, and she looked like she was poised to speak:
"I know the way to the tribe of Avarosa, and it will be good for you to let me follow."
"I'm not going there, we're just adventurers, and exploring everywhere is our purpose."
"No, you must go, there, by the way, there are many temples and treasures, you must be very interested, right? Yes, you must be interested! ”
Lily tried to convince us, making us laugh a little: "Okay, since you want to go there so much, we can send you there, but you can't follow us anymore!" ”
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Although it is not very professional, the adventure life of Rui Wen and I is still very fun, and with the addition of a nasty little girl, it is a completely different feeling.
Actually, I'm going to head all the way north to Ash to have a look, but I'm just saying this to get rid of this baggage.
The expanse of Freljord is sure to have a lot to offer in fun or thrilling.
