Chapter 17 Longji Snow Mountain
The red-haired god of Longji Snow Mountain
shook his head. The soft and fluffy long curly hair on his back softened the sharpness brought by his uniform, but it was still too sharp compared to before.
"What's the matter with you?"
Phoenix asked uncomfortably. Otherwise, these people didn't know if they had taken the wrong medicine, and they kept staring at him, as if he had flowers on his face.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I just got distracted." The traveler coughed, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "We are here to invite you to go to Longji Snow Mountain with us."
As he spoke, his eyes drifted towards the other person's. The head looks soft and fluffy, and it feels warm at first glance, but it’s a pity that I can’t touch it.
Could it be that this is why Arvid insists on braiding his hair?
Phoenix didn't pay attention to the traveler's distraction. He was a little entangled. In terms of the overall situation, he should refuse the invitation.
But as we all know, the god of Nata is a very reliable, but also quite arbitrary god.
He looked at the bard who couldn't help but want to study his hair, and said seriously, "I want to see the snow."
The bard took back his hand, coughed, and said briskly: "Then go and see the snow. "
Like some kind of code that others couldn't understand, the group of people looked at the red-haired and red-eyed boy with his eyebrows raised, like a big cat with fur, and nodded quite reservedly, "Apples?"
"Two apples? Basket!" The God of Wind smiled and raised two fingers in response to the task of appeasing Tevalin.
"Deal."
Paimon crossed his arms, looked at this and that, and said in confusion: "What are you talking about."
Unexpectedly, the two people said at the same time, "Secret." "Hey." "
By the way, Ah . Vader, give me back your ring." The traveler took out the ring and handed it to Phoenix, watching the boy put it back on his hand.
"These rings are so beautiful." Paimon praised. Each gemstone was crystal clear, like a solidified flame, and he didn't know when it would burn again.
Phoenix said proudly, "Of course, this is the only crown in the world!"
"So... is Arvid the king?" Paimon asked curiously.
Phoenix thought for a moment, laughed brightly and lively, showed his white teeth, and threatened, "You will be punished if you talk about the king's disguised identity casually."
Paimon was startled, but he quickly came to his senses. , according to their speculation, Arvid is at most just a dependent of God Nata, how could he really be a god.
"You scared me to death," Pamon said angrily.
Suddenly, a shiny object appeared in front of Paimon. The little flying object took a closer look, turned over in fright, and hid behind the traveler.
"Don't you like it?" Phoenix tilted his head pretending to be confused, the ring on his palm sparkling in the light.
"Isn't this something very important to Arvid?" the traveler asked.
Phoenix smiled, and there were ten clear rings on his hands, none of which were missing. "Although they are imitations, they are still very valuable. If necessary, inject elemental power into them to save your life."
He said, He untied a thin rope made of gold and red double threads from his body, put the ring on, and placed it in the traveler's hand as a necklace.
"I will definitely keep it well." The traveler seriously put the ring in his hand into his backpack and looked at the two brothers who were watching the fun.
Abedo looked carefully at the father that his brother was determined to follow. Perhaps because of his intuition as a disciple of Reindot, no matter how human the boy in front of him looked, he always felt that something was wrong.
Just like the sun disk in the sky is wrapped in a thin shell, with just one stroke, the red flames in the body will flow out and burn the world.
Those eyes are too pure and too sharp. If you want to see the emotions in those eyes clearly, you have to push aside the embers under the red flames layer by layer to see those sharp and cold, dragon-like vertical pupils. .
People are always attracted by the wanton red color, but ignore the ashes remaining after the carefully hidden flames burn out and the layers of dead bones under the throne.
Phoenix noticed the gaze of Albedo, the Son of Chalk, Reindot's proudest masterpiece, of whom he had heard more than once.
Kanria is a country hidden deep underground and lacks animals and vegetation. However, the Kanria people found another way and vigorously developed alchemy.
However, rather than so much alchemy, it actually focuses more on the branch of "creating life". The art of nurturing life is named "Black Earth Art".
The advanced level of "black soil" is "chalk".
Chalk is untainted soil, the material of primitive man. Using chalk, Reindot created the artificial human Albedo.
During this period, Reindot created countless magical beast creations, the most famous of which was probably the demon dragon "Dulin" that fell in the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain.
There are also those Beast Realm cubs, Beast Realm Hounds and Golden King Beasts that were once extinct but now appear in Teyvat. Five hundred years ago, Kanreia was destroyed. These creatures were flowing with black blood that was not allowed in this world, trampling all living beings and destroying everything on the continent.
The former sage of Camrea, the alchemist known as "Gold", and the patriarch of the Witches, R, finally became a sinner.
Nowadays, except for a few people such as Abedo, not many people remember this golden alchemist.
The pure chalk born from the black soil of the abyss is truly a miracle of beauty unique in the world.
Phoenix looked at Albedo, who seemed to be thinking about some life problem, and curiously asked: "Is there something wrong with me?"
Albedo shook his head and changed the subject, "Shall we leave now?"
Maybe he himself He didn't realize that subconsciously he was actually afraid of Phoenix. It was the instinctive suppression between different life forms of different generations.
Phoenix nodded, "Okay, if you leave early, you can have lunch at the camp at the bottom of the mountain."
This time, the road up the mountain was very smooth. Except for the unavoidable Qiuqiu camp on the road, those stupid guys were like After getting some instructions, I took the initiative to walk away as soon as I saw them.
At dusk, they also arrived at Abedo's camp on the snow-capped mountains. Exploring the snow-capped mountains at night was very dangerous, so after discussion, they decided to rest for the night and continue exploring the next day.
In order to prevent the Qiuqiu people from disturbing them, Phoenix and Jedidiya stayed up half the night, and Abedo and the Traveler stayed up half the night.
However, just when the traveler was drowsy, Paimon suddenly pushed him and called softly, "Traveler, traveler, wake up."
The traveler opened his eyes drowsily, " "What's wrong, Paimon?"
"I heard Arvid and Jedidiya arguing about something, and then Arvid left. It's been more than an hour." Paimon's voice was full of worry, and his eyes were from time to time. Looking in the direction of Albedo sleeping on the other side.
The traveler suddenly woke up, quietly opened his sleeping bag, got up, made gestures, and walked towards Jedidiah who was sitting next to the fire.
He pretended to have just woken up, rubbed his eyes and asked, "Jedidiah, where is Arvid?"
Jedidiah's expression was a little stiff, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, but he still pretended to reply as if nothing had happened, "Father said he went to collect some firewood."
"Jedediah, you can't lie."
Suddenly, behind him, something happened. Abedo's voice came. It turned out that he had woken up when Arvid and Jedidiya were discussing, but he had never made a sound.
In addition, he didn't think there would be dangers on the Dragon's Back Snow Mountain that Phoenix couldn't handle. This inexplicable confidence was completely incomprehensible to the rigorous white-haired alchemist.
So he immediately discovered that the two people were arguing about something, or it should be that Jedidiah was unilaterally trying to dissuade Phoenix.
