Chapter 7 The River Tavern

Walking out of the tree, the world before your eyes suddenly opens up!

This is no longer the forest by the sea just now, but a completely new landscape.

There is thick snow under Karl's feet, and to his right is a frozen creek, but it becomes wider and wider as it moves away from Karl, until the end of the field of vision can be called "

"Jiang".

In the distance, you can also see that the terrain on the edge of the frozen river is gradually rising, forming a small hillside about less than a kilometer away. The shadow of a building can be vaguely seen on the top of the hillside.

Carl thought that might be where "Miss" lived.

At the same time, the wonders of the dream world are also reflected here.

Although it is completely snow-covered winter near the river, spring is full of life on the right side of the river. The pattern of this change is that the temperature gradually warms up as you move away from the river, which can be clearly seen about 50 meters away.

temperature difference.

For example, the hut on the top of the mountain that Carl saw was winter, but if you run all the way to the foot of the mountain, you can experience winter, autumn, summer, and spring, and directly come to a forest full of life.

Alice, who entered here first before Karl, and the others were walking on the snow on the ground at this time. When they saw Karl, they said to him:

"Mr. Carl, do you see the hillside in front of you?"

"certainly!"

After answering Alice, Karl chased after her in a few steps.

"That's where your lady lives?"

"Yes, you can get there by just walking two steps." Alice replied.

While moving forward in the snow, Karl continued to ask:

"We could walk through the forest on that coast when we came in, so when we go out, do we have to go back the same way?"

"Not really." While rushing on the road, Alice was still doing science popularization work for Karl.

"This place is not isolated from the outside world. If you want to leave, except for some special methods, you can also take a boat."

"Is it a ship like The Voyage of the Dawn Treader?"

"The Dawn Treader is fine, but ships sailing on the sea are also fine."

Chatting like this, they walked across a stone bridge to the other side of the river, and then walked uphill to the house they just saw.

Surprisingly, this house is not that big. It only has a simple circular first floor and a conical second floor. Except for the chimney that is whispering, it is completely made of wood. You can't see the inside through the windows.

When you go there, it feels like an outdoor tavern.

Then Alice walked up and knocked on the door three times very regularly:

"I'm back!"

With a creak, the wooden door opened with a unique sound, and a beautiful girl in a long skirt was standing there.

The girl who appeared in front of Karl had skin as white as snow, lips that were alluring pink, and hair as black and beautiful as ebony. Her whole person revealed an unreal beauty, just like Snow White in the fairy tale.

But Karl knew that this was definitely not the "Miss" Alice mentioned.

Because according to her, the Queen of Dreams is still an underage kid of about ten years old, and is definitely not as mature as the girl in front of her.

"Alice, you're back!"

Seeing Alice outside the door, the girl happily walked up to her and gave her a hug. After kissing Alice on the cheek, she opened the door to the house.

Then she looked at Karl beside her and asked shyly:

"Is this Mr. Carl?"

"Um."

Alice nodded and said: "This is the guest invited by the lady, Bai Xue."



Very good, this look is also called Bai Xue.

Karl knew it in his mind in an instant.

At this time, the girl whom Alice called Snow White was looking at him expectantly, but Karl didn't know how to respond for a moment.

After being silent for about two seconds, Karl finally said, "I am Karl. Are you the Snow White?"

After being recognized by Karl, the girl in front of him immediately hugged him with a smile and gave him a peck on the face:

"Yes, I am."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Carl."

After entering this room, Carl found that the things in front of him were somewhat different from what he thought.

There is absolutely no "lady" here, because it is really just a pub!

"Welcome, Mr. Carl!"

“Thank you so much for coming to help us!”

"Here's to you, Mr. Carl!"

"..."

Many humanoid and non-humanoid guys were sitting here in a mess, discussing something heatedly. After seeing Karl, these guys took off their hats to salute him or performed other courtesy.

Several girls who looked no less than Snow White served as waiters, delivering food and wine to them. Karl had no doubt that several of them were "celebrities" in fairy tales, at least the one with long hair.

The one who talks is definitely Rapunzel!

In general, this place is really as beautiful as a fairy tale, with dwarfs, anthropomorphic animals, elves, humans and fairies living in it, all happily mingle together.

"Alice, where is your lady?"

Seeing this scene, Karl couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"The lady is still down there. This is where the residents of the forest go to have fun."

"Just follow me."

With that said, Alice took Karl to the backstage of the tavern, opened a downward trap door and got in.

Following Alice, they came to a level built inside the hillside. There was hard rock on one end and an exposed cliff on the other side. From here, you could jump directly to the frozen river outside.

The style inside the building is similar to the one above, but the guests are slightly different.

Some of them look very attractive, such as the big bad wolf with a huge mouth, the wrinkled witch, and the knight with a sinister face. These guys with a cold atmosphere eat very weird or bloody food, and there are no waiters around.

However, after seeing Karl, their attitude was still friendly, and at least they nodded to see if there was anyone who said something rude.

"Keep walking."

After greeting Carl, Alice continued to lead him into a trap door and went down to the "second underground floor".

The decoration here is still the same as the previous floor, but the guests are even scarier.

Karl even saw a few living devils discussing something there. This was a floor completely occupied by "demons and monsters"!

Walking down again, Karl finally couldn't help it anymore:

"Alice, how many floors are here?"

"The bottom floor is the last floor, and the lady is right there."

"All right."

Karl nodded, then went down the spiral staircase and landed on the ground on the last floor that Alice said.

According to this rule, God knows what "things" are waiting for him underneath.

Then before Karl could stand firm, a white shadow rushed up and hugged his body tightly:

"You must be Karl!"
