Chapter 257: A Girl in the Snow
"...... of Velobes"
Reading the name of his fiancée with this body, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Lin Wei's mouth.
In Lin Wei's eyes, Verobes was just a bug that jumped more powerfully.
"But even a small bug like this can cause me a lot of trouble at the moment, so it's better to be cautious......"
Lin Wei stood up, walked to the corner of the wall, and turned out a broken basket at the base of the wall, and in the basket, there were still a few pieces of broken black bread, which were already moldy and gave off a slightly pungent smell.
This was the only food Kane had left before he died.
"It's even more unpopular than I thought......"
Lin Wei shook his head, then picked out a piece of black bread that had not been stained with mold, gently tore it into two pieces, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Dry, slaggy, sour, but Lin Wei didn't have any other look on his face, just calm.
"In the next two or three days, let's recuperate for a while, and when the scars and pain on my body subside a little, I will go to the wild mountains outside the city to pick up some herbs and make a blood purification potion......
Lin Wei stuffed a few more mouthfuls, feeling that the hunger in his stomach had gradually subsided, before he walked to the door, pushed the door and walked out.
Wow!
The moment Lin Wei opened the door, the cold wind came in an instant, and his originally thin body and two layers of clothes were instantly soaked by the wind, and he shivered unconsciously.
At this time, outside the house, the snow was already covered all over the ground, and the moonlight poured and reflected on the snow, stabbing Lin Wei's eyes with some pain.
The boundary where Lin Wei is currently located is the northern region of the bloodline plane, where it is cold and snowy all year round, and there is snow for half of the year.
Lin Wei suddenly felt a little thirsty, this body has not yet departed from the extraordinary, and still needs to eat grains and drink water.
Lin Wei squatted directly on the ground, put his two hands together, held a hand of snow, and swallowed it directly into his mouth.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Lin Wei's eyelids lifted, and at the entrance of the side courtyard where he was, a figure suddenly flashed.
"Heh......"
Lin Wei shook his head gently, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he looked up at the moonlight at night, and then turned around and returned to the house directly.
The cold courtyard fell silent again.
Squeak squeak......
It's the sound of footsteps on the snow.
I saw a figure appear at the door of the side courtyard.
It was a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, tall and delicate, wearing a red cotton wool cloak, dragging to the ground.
Her hair was golden, her pupils were crystal blue, and a thick melancholy was circulating in her eyes.
The maiden carried a basket in her hand, made of something similar to a bamboo strip, and covered with a layer of patterned cotton cloth.
Staring at the dilapidated door of the room, the girl's nose was sore, the tip of her nose that was red from the cold twitched, and her beautiful eyes were instantly filled with a layer of mist.
She tiptoed and walked softly to Lin Wei's door.
The girl slowly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then half-crouched down and placed the basket at the door.
She leaned to her ear and pressed it against the door, as if listening to the movement in the room, and her originally sad eyes had a hint of warmth.
Knock knock!
The girl suddenly banged on the door, and then ran out of the yard.
Lin Wei opened the door again, looked down and saw the basket at his feet.
Carrie ...... Kane's childhood sweetheart?"
The corners of Lin Wei's mouth curled, pretending to look around, and then brought the patterned cotton cloth on the basket.
I saw that inside the narrow basket, things were densely arranged.
There was a box of butter, two large pieces of white and tender white bread, and a few pieces of meat. It also used two bottles of liquid with a faint smell, which seemed to be some kind of potion. In addition, in the bottom corner of the basket, there was a red stone with a regular shape, Lin Wei pinched it in the palm of his hand, and felt a warmth to dispel all the coldness in his body.
"Fire Stone...... The little girl really has a heart......"
Lin Wei thought that the next few days would be sad, but he didn't expect Jia Liwen to send these things to him.
Lin Wei held the basket in his hand, then walked back to the room and closed the door.
After making sure that Lin Wei had taken the things back into the house, the red-cloaked girl Jia Liwen walked away quickly in the snowy night.
For the next few days, Lin Wei stayed in the house, smeared the wound with the potion given by Jia Liwen, and recuperated in peace. The amount of white bread was very large, Lin Wei took two bites when he was hungry, opened the door and swallowed two mouthfuls of ice and snow when he was thirsty, and then swallowed it when the water warmed up in his mouth.
As for the extremely low temperature, Lin Wei is no longer worried, with the fire crest stone given by Jia Liwen, this kind of cold is nothing.
A few days later.
There is no snow in the air in the northern region, and the sun shines on the earth, but it can't melt a trace of ice and snow.
Squeak.
Lin Wei pushed open the door and took a deep breath.
In the past few days, Lin Wei has almost adjusted his body, with the help of the potion left by Jia Liwen, the injuries on his body have recovered, and the skin injuries have basically disappeared completely.
With a fire pattern stone stuffed around his waist, even if he was only wearing two layers of clothes, Lin Wei didn't feel cold.
"I'm almost done, so let's go to the wild mountains outside the city today and find those herbs for making bloodline purification potions......
Lin Wei closed the door and walked out of the side courtyard.
"It seems that everyone looks at me with a bad look......"
Walking in the family's manor, whether it is a subordinate or an old acquaintance occasionally encountered, they all look at Lin Wei coldly, without deliberate sarcasm and ridicule, nor do they have any closeness.
Lin Wei didn't feel any discomfort, but felt very comfortable.
The Knox family's manor was very large, and according to Kane's memory, Lin Wei walked for nearly half an hour before leaving the manor.
"Huh?"
As soon as Lin Wei walked out of the manor, he sensed several hostile gazes piercing his body.
Although there is no spiritual power at present, and there is no blood power, the soul is so powerful, and there are some instinctive senses.
Following the source of his gaze, Lin Wei saw several men in linen clothes, they were scattered in the crowd, and the moment they saw Lin Wei, they all began to retreat and quickly disappeared into the crowd. Only one man pretended to be doing something else, haggling with a vendor to disguise his identity.
"It seems to be the man of Verobes...... I didn't expect my whereabouts to be watched now......"
Lin Wei didn't stop, turned around and left, and his footsteps were faster.
"If you guess correctly, the purpose of these people's existence is probably to confirm whether Kane is dead......" Lin Wei sneered in his heart, "Now that I have come out alive, I naturally want to go back and report to Verobes......"
"Next, I guess it's another wave of assassinations......"
