Chapter 337: Wordless Alyssa
"Finally came in. Arthur wiped the sweat that hadn't been there for a long time.
The small village of Fireblade was much more dilapidated than Arthur's impression, they all lived in tents that resembled yurts, and although life looked hard, there was much to see on their smiling faces.
The children fought each other with wooden swords, very serious and focused, but a little slack, ushered in the master's leather whip, some young people were following the teacher's one-on-one cultivation everywhere, and the apprentices in this period had always been focused and serious on their faces, without the naughtiness and cowardice of childhood.
After going through the childhood and youth periods, in the end, the most cruel trials have to be carried out, attacking the cruel elimination and selection of number theory, and the man who wins in the end can inherit the name of the Sword Master, responsible for guiding the training of newcomers, and repeating the cycle over and over again.
Before a woman got married, it was the same, but after she got married, she devoted herself to housework, or hunting, and the woman of the fire blade was extremely powerful, not as rumored by the outside world to be inpowerful.
It was an unbalanced mix of men and women, but there was still a certain scale and tacit understanding in it, the village was peaceful, acquaintances nodded when they met, and practiced certain etiquette, as if they could not speak loudly during the day, except when the men with names shouted at them.
In the tradition of the Fireblade Clan, the daytime is used for training and work, and the night is the time for rest.
There are no wells in the village, but there is a lot of snow around, and it is usually used to melt the snow into water, and firewood and lighting utensils are scarce, after all, there are few tall trees near the snow-capped mountains.
When you take a bath, you usually put snow on it, then use your body temperature to melt the snow and take a cold shower.
The only person who can use fire unconditionally is the blacksmith of the village, and he is also the most popular person in the village, the most respected elder, the reason why the Fire Blade clan is called the Fire Blade is because their weapons are specially enchanted, and the adult man who obtains the name of the Sword Saint can get the blessing of the clan god and stimulate the special ability of the Fire Spirit Blade, so the blacksmith who makes the spirit blade has a higher status than the patriarch.
The elderly are the most respected people, and no matter how high their status is, they must be courteous to the elderly, which is the most basic cognition. Their hospitality is a special rule that all good things must be brought out as a sign of respect.
For a variety of reasons, the Fireblade Clan has been honing their most tenacious minds in the most difficult environments, forming quickly and holding the most persistent beliefs.
Countless people saw Arthur's arrival, and the whole quiet village was inexplicably silent, their eyes were clear, and there was a special meaning, as if they regarded him as a benefactor.
"Come on, Alice is still waiting for you, she's cured of the disease here, and left a message for you to deal with the witch. So the people of the Fireblade Clan have been waiting for you to arrive. ”
Arthur's demeanor has changed a lot under the influence of the environment, and he has been walking forward with the nameless footsteps
People on both sides, bowing their heads and saluting, old people, children, women.
The man who was training in the high place also put one hand on his chest, bowed his head slightly, his body was as straight as a sword, but his movements were extremely pious and solemn.
The whole village changed a lot in an instant because of the arrival of a man and a man, all to show the small respect they could show for the arrival of hope and salvation.
Picking up a small yurt on the innermost side, there was a woman sitting inside, drinking tea.
After the nameless commander let Arthur in, he left, because there were still many people waiting for him to explain Arthur's identity and origin, and to reassure everyone, these belonged to the family food, and had nothing to do with Arthur and Alice.
Arthur sat across from Alice and picked up a cup of black tea on the floor, apparently freshly poured.
"The Fire Blade Clan is xenophobic, but his xenophobia is not to exclude outsiders but to keep outsiders away or not to disturb the daily itinerary of the clan, your arrival should be the person who has made them stop the most time in more than a hundred years, and it should not appear in the future. ”
"Your performance in the Beast Emperor can't be said to be perfect, but you have been recognized by many people, I have helped you so much, should you also give me something. ”
Arthur took a big sip of tea, his body was cold, and the hot current went down his body and then swam all over his body, very comfortable and lazy.
Alice's tent was extravagant, there should be many of her own things, and it was very warm, there was firewood to boil water, and black tea to drink, and indeed her current life was a thousand times stronger than the people of the Fireblade Clan, although simple.
The fragrance of tea filled the air, everything seemed peaceful and simple, Arthur took a deep breath, and then exhaled, feeling a lot more refreshed.
"Tell me, whatever I have, I can give it to you. ”
Alice smiled, he was very satisfied with Arthur's indifference, and he really didn't mistake Arthur, at least a man is not stingy is the greatest kindness. Alice gives Arthur a list of many things marked with them. These things are found in the deepest depths of the Boundless Treasury, and they are all top-quality raw materials.
Arthur didn't know how to make potions, and he didn't have the heart to do so, so he gave Alice some of it without even thinking about it.
"What do you want these things for. Arthur asked, puzzled.
Alice smiled after taking stock of everything. "I've been trying to do something lately, I need to crack someone's immortal body, and these things happen to help me, and for that I need a drop of your blood, don't mind lending it to me. ”
Arthur frowned, but Alice didn't say it explicitly, and Arthur didn't bother to ask, and gave Alice another drop of his own blood.
"I may disappear from you forever, and if we meet one day, I hope you will remember me as a person. Alice took Arthur's blood.
"You seem very sad when you say this, if there is any difficulty, I can help you solve it. ”
Alice shook her head silently. "Arthur, you are the man who wants to be king, and I am the woman who wants salvation and freedom, and we have been the distance between heaven and earth from the beginning. Before I leave, I have two words of advice for you. ”
"First, there is no free lunch in the world, everyone has a purpose, it is just whether you understand it or not. ”
"Second, the more beautiful a woman is, the more she will lie, and the more beautiful a woman is, the more innocent she is, in a complex struggle, this is the most stupid naivety and will also cause fire to the people around you, you have to remember this extraordinarily, after all, there are more and more women around you, and I also specially arranged one for you, but this is for the good of your political career. ”
"Thirdly, it is okay to trust the people around you unconditionally now, but later when you reach the pinnacle of power, go and don't do it unconditionally, because power is the ambition to lose desire. ”
I hope you will always keep these words in your heart, and you must also remember the lesson. ”
Arthur swept over to Alice, looked through her half-covered hood, and looked into her half-bared eyes. "Thank you, I'll remember. But I'm the man you'll never get. ”
Poof, Alice suddenly covered her mouth, this was the first time Arthur saw her smile, and at this moment Alice seemed to let go of some heavy baggage.
