White mist slowly exhaled from Rena's mouth. Her blue eyes looked in front of her blankly. She slowly stretched out her hand and walked towards the empty place.
Her chapped lips moved, and a faint sound came from her throat.
"Mother."
She could barely stand and staggered forward a few steps. In her eyes, she saw her mother's gentle smile and stretched out her hands to her.
Gradually, she no longer felt the cold, the pain and discomfort on her body disappeared, and she no longer had to work hard to breathe the cold air...
However, just as her eyes were about to close, a dazzling light brought her back to reality. She took a breath and suddenly realized that there was an abyss in front of her.
"ah!"
Reina was so frightened that she fell to the ground. Suddenly she felt pain all over her body, her hands and feet were cold, and the wind around her flew with white mist, and the world suddenly turned white, as if the world was trying to stop her from moving forward.
"You can't do it!"
"You're going to die here."
"Hell is behind you!"
Some terrifying and ethereal sounds came from the sky, like the sounds of this world. Reina could barely see the road ahead. The wind howled, and the ice mist hit her face like sand, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Walking against the cold wind, she turned around and continued to move forward. However, the white wind and snow were like an unbreakable wall, and she could not move forward no matter what.
Just when she tripped over stones and fell to the ground countless times and almost gave up, she suddenly opened her eyes, put her hands on the ground, and stood up with difficulty.
"Master is still waiting for me to go back, I can't fall here!"
Suddenly, she stretched out her hand, and her invulnerable leather gloves were swallowed by the terrible cold wind and shattered.
Her exposed hands immediately formed a layer of frost on her skin, but even so, she still did not give up. She fell into the wind wall and let the biting cold wind blow.
However, just when her whole body was about to lose consciousness and her body could not maintain its body temperature and collapsed, the silver ring on her arm gave off a light, and she suddenly touched a sparkling thing.
It is a white and transparent flower!
Before she could react, the ice in her hands suddenly melted, her eyes glowed white, and a snow-white mountain appeared in her pupils.
At that moment, everyone on the mountain saw a light from the sky. It was light from the spiritual world, a celestial phenomenon that could only be caused by the protected Gaoshan tribe.
At this time, Lingtu, who was hunting, raised his head and looked at the mountain top in the distance. At the same time, all the Gaoshan people walked out of the house, took off their thick hats, and looked at this scene in awe.
The patriarch and the elders had their mouths half-opened, looking at the beam of light in the sky. They couldn't believe that this was real, that the little girl was actually from the lineage of mountain witches.
Reina woke up. She didn't know when she fell asleep. She only knew that there was no cold wind or scary sounds around her.
She stood up slowly and saw something white appearing on her shoulders and arms. At first she thought it was snow, but when she looked carefully, she saw that it was clearly hair like silver threads!
She lifted up her hair in horror and found that all her hair had turned silver white.
"Ah?! Me! Am I turning into a grandma?"
Reina pulled her cheek and found that it was still round.
"It's okay, hey! No! I'm wearing flowers!"
She was surprised to find that she had picked it just now, but why was it gone? Was it blown away by the wind while she was sleeping?
She looked around and saw that there was nothing on the top of the mountain, only snow and rocks.
"Oh no, no! Did it blow down the mountain?"
Rena became anxious, and she quickly looked around to see if there were any other ice flowers.
So, at noon the next day, she reluctantly went down the mountain and headed in the direction of the beam of light. It only took her less than half a day to return to the place where she started.
When she saw her master still standing there, waiting for her, with many people from the Gaoshan tribe behind her, she couldn't help crying, and then trotted to her master.
"Master! Flower! I lost the flower!"
Reina cried and said. The Demon King saw that her hair turned silver white, and he immediately understood something. However, at this time, the patriarch led a group of elders and came to the two of them. The elders behind him were holding a
There are ancient wooden sticks carved with various little figures, one is holding a basin of black charcoal ash, and the other elders are each holding a cup of white salt.
"Only people from the mountains who have passed the mountain god's test can see ice flowers. You have proven yourself that you are a member of our tribe."
As the patriarch spoke, he picked up the ancient wooden stick and muttered some unintelligible words, which were the language of the spirit world. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the basin of charcoal ash rose into the wind and revolved around Linnai. Linnai still
I don't know what happened, but the black charcoal powder suddenly turned into a black dragon. At this moment, the elders grabbed a handful of salt and sprinkled it into the sky.
Suddenly, a spark appeared from the patriarch's hand, immediately igniting the wooden stick in his hand, and the flames of the wooden stick spread out, igniting the black dragon in the air.
This was a strange ceremony, and the tribesmen were all happy for the return of this little fellow tribesman.
Finally, they discovered Reina's identity and determined that she was the granddaughter of the previous clan leader, and Yilin was her uncle.
So the two came to Yilin's home. He has two children. The eldest daughter, Ichika, is younger than Reina and has an outgoing and lively personality. The younger brother, Ippei, is shy. When he saw this sister he had never met before, he felt a little confused.
Whatever he should do, but after getting along for a long time, he began to slowly accept this strange sister and the talking iron ball.
Yilin's wife Jiuhua was very kind to Reina, and she took a lot of care of the two of them when they lived there. In the winter, the work of the adult men of the Gaoshan tribe was to go hunting, while the children and women were responsible for herding.
After living here for a week, Reina slowly adapted to the life here. The Demon King wanted to slowly fade out of her world and let her choose to stay here, but she didn't expect that during this period, she wouldn't go anywhere, just clinging to herself.
.
Maybe she has already noticed it.
The Demon King sighed. Reina was already asleep at this time, and she did not forget to grab the master's lapel.
He looked down at her with watery eyes. He didn't know how many times he had sighed tonight, he only knew that he was like an old man who could only sigh.
Finally he made up his mind and gently put his hand on her forehead.
"Is this really good?"
At this moment, Mr. Qiu, who was standing on the table, suddenly said.
The Demon King frowned and said, "For her, this is the best way to live."
"But does she really like it herself?"
This time the Demon King did not answer Mr. Ball's question. His hand emitted a little light, quietly modifying Reina's memory and removing himself from her world.
Reina's hand slowly loosened, and the Demon King took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. He placed a wrapped cloak on Reina's bedside, with a black book on it.
"Goodbye, my last little apprentice."
The Demon King stroked the fine hair on her forehead, then turned around, ignored Mr. Ball, and left the room.
Yilin stood at the door, seeming to know what he had done. He turned back and looked at the Demon King.
"Are you leaving?"
The devil's face was cold, and he gave a faint hum and walked past him.
Suddenly, he remembered something, stopped and turned his head.
Half of his face melted into the darkness, while the other half was as pale as the moon.
"Tell that clan leader that I will come back again."
After saying that, the demon king turned into black foam and disappeared before Yilin's eyes.
In an instant, all the doors of the Gaoshan Clan lit up, and they seemed to hear a terrible sound, but saw nothing outside.
Only the patriarch suddenly opened his eyes wide, his mouth trembled, and he slowly said a magic word.
