Following the directions on the map, we will soon descend the mountain, where there will be many villages.

At first, I wondered how the Freljord people survived in the snow and ice, and it was obviously unreliable to feed a lot of people and just hunt.

After reading the map, it turned out that there was a rolling mountain range between Noxus and Freljord.

Because the mountains are gentle, it feels like the whole of Freljord is an ice field.

In fact, after crossing this mountain range, you will find large areas of fertile land, many of which are as low-lying as ice fortresses, and although it is cold, it is not impossible to survive.

Of course, the Far North is frozen for thousands of miles.

We are still south of Freljord, and the map shows the Winterclaws as the Winterclaws.

I remember Jerram saying that his berserker clan was part of Winterclaw, but I don't know where.

But I didn't plan to look for him, because if the two sides went to war, we would be in a dilemma again.

Closer to the village, the temperature is a little warmer than the snowy fields, and there are not only hardy plants, but even flowers blooming.

Snow is something that can make people happy, but walking on the snowfield for many days in a row makes my head dizzy, and I am extremely happy to see these unknown little flowers at this moment.

The houses here are very low, out of place for the people, and the walls are thick to keep out the wind and predators.

When we arrived, it seemed that people were celebrating the holidays, and a bonfire was lit in the middle of the village, which made the desolate evening much warmer.

People gathered around and were arguing loudly, as if they were discussing something.

"Let's go, go over and say hello, if only they could provide us with a place to stay." I've been suffering a lot of tent life these days.

"I think it's nice to be in a tent, it's warm and relaxing." Rui Wen looked like she was enjoying herself.

People are always hostile when they see strangers, and the people here are no exception, and they are very alert when they see two aliens with dicks on them.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

"We're explorers, and we're passing through here, and we want to buy some food that we can bring with us and take a night's rest by the way, okay?"

"Strangers are not welcome here, so let's go." People refused very simply, without hesitation at all, and it seems that it has always been.

I glanced at Rui Wen and waved my hand: "Let's go, it seems that we have to continue to live in the tent." ”

"Just what I want!"

We were about to leave when suddenly there was a scream from the center of the crowd, the cry of a little girl, but because the people were so close to death, we couldn't see what was going on inside.

Rui Wen stopped, but immediately someone urged us: "Don't hurry up yet!" ”

I winked at her, pulled her away, went back to our ox cart, and sat down.

"Why are you pulling me? They are clearly not doing good. ”

"But it's none of our business, have you forgotten what Tam said? If you can, don't cause trouble, and try not to cause trouble. ”

Rui Wen looked at me and didn't speak, I knew she was upset: "Okay, wait for it to get a little darker, let's sneak back and see what's going on." ”

"I knew you weren't a cold-blooded person, hehe."

I tugged at her nose and rode the Ironhorn and pretended to leave, and when the man who was following us returned, I tugged hard at the tail of the ox, and it was very cooperative and motionless.

The night in the north was unusually dark, so our sneak went very well, the campfire in the village was still burning, and no one was going home.

Rui Wen and I found two tall black pine trees and climbed up, and found the little girl in the crowd:

The little girl's clothes were thin, and her skin was the color of ice and snow, but thanks to the light of the fire, it didn't look so pale.

She was clearly not from here, for the little girl's hair was shiny, while the villagers' hair was dirty and rough as hay, as it should have been in the cold.

The little girl was tied to a stake, and in front of her stood two very old men, babbling something incessantly.

Every once in a while, the torch would be dangled in front of the little girl, and then the little girl would scream, as she had just done, and it seemed that such a ritual had been going on for a long time.

The discussion has not stopped, because it is too noisy for me to have a clue, but from the words "witch, evil, calamity" and so on, it is not difficult to deduce that they are performing some kind of ritual.

In such a desolate and remote place, it is easy for this to happen, and people indiscriminately blame the so-called heretics for some strange phenomena around them, even such children.

In this way, after some time of the "trial", the two old men left and waved to the people next to them, and then two young men came over.

One of the young men was holding a torch and the other was carrying a barrel, and it was only when he splashed the contents of the barrel on the little girl that I realized that it might be fuel.

They're going to burn this girl!

Before the young man could throw the torch over, Rui Wen and I jumped down at the same time, she stopped everyone, I cut the rope and picked up the little girl and ran.

The crowd was in an instant uproar, and we quickly fled to the ox cart in the night, this was a snowy field, and it was difficult for them to find us.

I was very strange when I ran away just now, the little girl's body was very cold, her clothes were very thin, and her body temperature was clearly transmitted to my hands.

"Are you okay?" I hurriedly wrapped her in a tent.

"It's okay, I'm not cold." The little girl was very calm, neither cowering from the howling cold wind nor shivering from fear.

"I was scared by the torch just now, why is it so calm now? You're not an ordinary person, are you? ”

"I'm just afraid of fire, who are you and why are you here?"

The little girl did not say who she was, but asked about us, and saw that she was only about ten years old, but she was as cautious as an adult.

"We are adventurers, we are traveling everywhere, I heard that Freljord is thrilling a long time ago, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing when I first came, by the way, my name is Yasuo, this is my partner Rui Wen."

"You two are going on an adventure in an ox cart? There should be a limit to lying, right? ”

This little guy is quite difficult to get it, obviously he has a cute face, why did he suddenly become annoying.

"Okay, it looks like you're not going to communicate properly, so you can do it yourself."

I put the tent away, then put the little girl on the snow, and called Riven to get ready to leave, it seems that tonight is my own trouble.

"Wait, you're just leaving? What if I get caught? Or eaten by wild beasts. ”

"Little sister, do you still know that you are afraid?" I felt speechless, obviously I was arrogant just now, but now I am afraid.

"I'm not stupid, why don't I know to be afraid?"

"Then I'll give you another chance, what's your name? Why were they arrested? ”
