Chapter Eighty-Six: In the Icewind Valley

The wind and snow are howling. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ .lā

Ye Qing stood in the cold wind and snow, and the cyan lotus petals beside him swayed quietly.

The cold wind mixed with broken snow, as if it was wrapped in countless daggers of cold light, but in front of the delicate and slender Qinglian, they were shattered before they could be touched, and they scattered with the wind.

Ye Qing raised his eyes and saw that there was snow as far as he could see, and looking back, Tianlan City standing in the belly of the mountain was still magnificent and magnificent.

This is Icewind Dale.

Icewind Valley is the largest valley in the Sacred Snow Mountain, and although the climate is still harsh, it relies on two ice rivers and several geothermal hot springs in the valley, along which there are several villages.

It's like people living in the desert by water, and warmth is an even more important resource.

And just as Mochizuki Mountain Villa is the ancestral land of the Tianlan Ren family, this Ice Wind Valley is the ancestral land of the Tianlan Shi family, and it is the main industry.

This is not a joke, but to say that Icewind Valley and Moon Mountain Villa are the two most important foundations near Tianlan City, and with them, the two major families of Tianlan City can be supported.

And Shi Feng is the Lord of Icewind Valley.

The source of the Icewind Valley's dark river comes from the Streamer River, so it is also an excellent jade production area, and along the Icewind Valley, there is a precious spar vein in the northernmost village.

The jade resources have brought a large amount of worldly wealth to the Shi family, and the spars that contain spiritual power and can be used for magic guides have cultivated a large number of strong people for the Shi family.

And this is the foundation and heritage of the Shi family that has lived in the second place of the Tianlan City family for a long time.

That's why the Shi family will be called the Shi family.

In addition to stones, Icewind Dale is also rich in extremely precious snow medicinal materials, once they are taken to the warm south, they are often worth ten thousand gold, and those magical beasts that are active in Icewind Dale, although they are dangerous existences, are also a treasure trove that moves head-to-head.

Now that the entire Shi family has been wiped out, this Icewind Valley will surely cause countless greedy people to compete and covet.

But these have nothing to do with Ye Qing.

She's just here looking for someone, and — for answers.

She also wanted to know what the sassy girl who walked into her igloo with the snow lotus flower had to do with the demon who caused the killing and nightmares.

However, what she wanted to do most was to find Shi Feng.

The extermination of the blood feud is a hatred that is not shared on anyone.

He met the maiden, and together they enjoyed bread and salt, and he took her to his homeland.

And from distrust to the time when you slowly began to believe in her.

She chose to slaughter his entire clan with her own hands.

This feeling was like being stunned and crazy when Ye Qing saw Ge Sheng slaughtering all his relatives one day.

So much so that the boy who is so indifferent and calm will lose all his senses, but he will come here alone, trying to find the answer behind it.

Even if Haoyue had assured her that Shi Feng was the safest person in Icewind Valley, she didn't believe it.

He is bigger than himself.

It's stronger than yourself.

But you don't need much reason to worry about someone.

Ye Qing spread out the map.

For some reason, Haoyue, who had fiercely prevented her from coming, finally gave up unbelievably, and prepared dry food and clothes for her along with this map of Icewind Dale, in which Haoyue marked the location of each village for her in detail, as well as where Shi Feng might be.

The terrain of Icewind Dale is gourd-shaped, with a vast oval basin at each end, but between the basins is an extremely narrow and steep valley through which a dark river flows, and around Icewind Dale, there are steep mountains covered in thick snow.

Therefore, Icewind Dale is divided into inner valleys and outer valleys.

The outer valley is the valley south of the steep valley known as the Ice Gorge, closer to Tianlan City, and the climate is relatively better, six of the eight villages in the Icewind Valley are located in the outer valley, there are glass gardens, and with the heat of the hot springs, you can even grow some fresh vegetables to match the monotonous meat grains.

However, the most important thing is the inner valley, because three-quarters of the jade and all the spars are produced in the inner valley, where the climate is harsher and the environment is more dangerous.

It's just that when Ye Qing came to the outer valley, she felt that this valley was not welcome to her.

Otherwise, how could such a bitter snowstorm suddenly blow in such a deep basin?

With this in mind, she reached her first village.

It's more like a town than a village.

Or rather, the fortress.

Ye Qing saw the tall white stone city wall, the towering arrow tower, the bed crossbow erected on the city wall, and the villagers standing on the city wall wrapped in thick fur and questioning her loudly.

Everything is like a fortress, but it's too small.

His city wall is ten zhang high and ten zhang thick, but the land protected by the city wall is only a few hundred zhang square.

Even if there are blacksmiths, grocery shops, butcher shops, fur shops, and even a small brothel within a radius of hundreds of square feet, this village is still too small.

Even if this village is extremely wealthy, the heat provided by the hot springs cannot support too many people, and not everyone is willing to spend their lives in this dead snow valley, so even if everyone here is a Shi family, the greatest hope of all of them is that they can one day live in the ancestral house of the Shi family in Tianlan City.

Of course, this was before they knew what had happened to the Shi family's ancestral home.

Ye Qing stood in front of the city tower and lightly showed the token that Haoyue gave her, here, the identity of the ninth princess did not bring too much convenience, but used what Tianlan City gave her, which had a more substantial deterrent effect.

It was a jade token hanging high in the middle of the moon, a token of the Tianlan Ren family, she represented the Tianlan Ren family at this moment, which was equivalent to the spokesperson of the city lord coming to this land.

So it was released without question.

She did not stay in the first village, and even refused to allow her to eat a light meal.

She's got what she wants, though.

Information.

Shi Feng did come here and left half a day ago.

She asked Shi Feng about the direction of his departure, and asked Shi Feng the questions he had asked here, because of her identity, the village chief here did not dare to hide it in the slightest.

Shi Feng only asked three questions.

Is there any movement in Warcraft?

The answer is no.

Anything unusual lately?

The answer is no.

Have you ever seen people from other villages?

The answer is no.

From these three questions, Ye Qing felt a chill to the bone.

Ye Qing quickly left in the direction of Shi Feng, and left the same warning as Shi Feng.

"Keep the door closed, on top alert, and don't let any suspicious people in."

"And, prepare to evacuate."

However, it seemed that out of the same tacit understanding, she, like Shi Feng, did not inform the villagers here of what happened in Tianlan City.
