To my frozen hometown

Chapter 27 People's Pain Finally Comes from Their Powerlessness

Liu Yuan was awakened by a voice in a trance, when countless blood dripped on her face, and when her coat almost turned brown-red.

"You, hello, ma'am." The voice was nervous and tentative, but surprisingly free of any fear.

Liu Yuan turned his head, saw the person coming, then was stunned for a moment, and spoke.

"Oh, it's you kid."

She still remembered De Rosso, the young and eccentric painter.

"Yes, it's me." Realizing that Liuyuan still remembered him, De Rosso's face turned red again, and his appearance became more nervous.

Since they are acquaintances, things will be much easier afterwards.

At De Rosso's invitation, Yanagihara climbed up the canyon again, took Al to the bottom of the cliff, and had lunch with them.

Al was a little shy of strangers, so after introducing himself, he just sat beside Liu Yuan, bowed his head and said nothing.

As for De Rosso, despite the many operations in his mind, when Liu Yuan sat across from him, he immediately became embarrassed and couldn't say a word.

As a result, during the entire meal, Liu Yuan was basically chatting with a few employers.

Of course, most of Liu Yuan was just answering.

Probably because they saved their lives, several of the employers seemed extremely enthusiastic.

"Come, Yuan, try old Kent's craftsmanship." One of the middle-aged employees named Kent handed a can of boiled broth to Liu Yuan's hand.

"Well, thank you." Liu Yuan put down the dagger he was wiping in his hand, and took the broth.

He didn't care about the faint taste, and took a sip silently.

I have to say that people in this era are really not very good at enjoying it.Most of the things like rice are only to the extent that they can be eaten.

The captain of the employer was called Meika, and he was sitting on Liuyuan's right hand at this moment, looking down at the dagger that Liuyuan had casually put aside.

From the previous battle, he could be sure that this dagger was undoubtedly extremely strong.

Because he saw with his own eyes that the snow worm's mucus that could corrode steel dripped on it without leaving any traces.

I also saw that it pierced straight into the muscles of the "monster" that even bullets couldn't penetrate.

I also saw that when it blocked the falling rolling stone, it still didn't have the slightest bend in the blade.

I really don't know what material this knife is made of.

Maika thought so, while drinking the broth in his hand, he carefully looked at the blade.

But the appearance of the short knife made him feel shocking the first time he saw it clearly, because the blade of this knife was already full of gaps and looked dilapidated.

What kind of battle did he have to go through to use such a knife like this?

Mika thought in amazement, and his pupils involuntarily tightened slightly.

Looking at the gap on the blade, he could almost imagine how many beasts this knife had killed in the hands of its owner.

Some beasts may even be enormous, because only then can they leave scars on the knife.

This scarred blade is undoubtedly a soldier's medal, and every wound on it is a symbol of victory.

Thinking of this, Mai Ka couldn't help but look into Liu Yuan's eyes with deep admiration.

He understood that it was obviously impossible for such a blade to have only one generation of masters, and since Liu Yuan could inherit it, he must have experienced cruel battles.

What kind of a fight would that be?

Maika couldn't help yearning for it. He respected the strong as well as warriors, so Liu Yuan had become a respectable person in his eyes.

Is it also a hunt for "monsters"?

Thinking of Liuyuan's relaxed look when he killed the worm, Maika thought subconsciously.

It is very possible, because I am afraid that only "monsters" can make a fighter like her deal with it seriously.

Thinking of this, Meika's thoughts suddenly became more free.

He even imagined an organization dedicated to hunting "monsters", and Liu Yuan was one of them.

Cough, in fact, from a certain point of view, what he thought was not wrong, but it was a long time ago.

Liu Yuan did join an organization that specialized in hunting "monsters", but now, that organization should also be lonely.

"Yuan, aren't you cold?" Jeste, the last employee in the team, looked at Liu Yuan's "cool" attire and asked suspiciously.

"Oh." For this kind of question that he was used to, Liu Yuan answered flatly while holding the broth.

"I'm better at adapting to the cold, so I often walk on ice fields."

"That's it." Jester looked at Liuyuan scratching his hair, and then smiled heartily: "It's really enviable, if only I can not be afraid of the cold, the price of a cold suit is not low."

"En." Liu Yuan nodded in agreement.

"But." Kent, a middle-aged man, listened to the words of the two, and the old god shook the jar in his hand on the ground and said.

"The weather on the ice sheet has become a lot warmer recently, hasn't it? I still remember that when I left the greenhouse a few years ago, I didn't dare to go out of the tent at night, otherwise I might not be able to come back."

"Well, that's true." Speaking of this, Jester looked at the sky above his head in confusion and muttered.

"Until now, there has been no snow on the ice sheet for two weeks, which is almost impossible to happen in previous years."

Listening to their conversation, Liu Yuan also raised his eyebrows in disbelief. Indeed, the weather in the ice field this year is really exceptionally good.

She can't feel the temperature change, but she can still see the sunlight, can't she?

The wind and snow had become less, which she could clearly feel.

It must be admitted that the most unobtrusive topic among strangers is to chat about the weather.

And sometimes, it can also quickly bring the relationship between people closer.

Just like now, the atmosphere around the snowmobile has become much more relaxed, at least not as silent as it was at the beginning.

"That's right." At this moment, Mai Ka, who had been sitting on the side, suddenly said.

"Yuan, what are you going to do when you come to the ice field?"

Listening to this question, the eyes of Kent and Jester were also attracted.

Because no matter how you say it, the combination of a traveler and a child is a bit too special on the ice field.

"This one." Liu Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground and glanced at Al beside him.

"We're going to go east and do something."

"Really?" Hearing the word Dong Bian, Maika's eyes showed a little surprise.

Afterwards, he exchanged glances with the other two employers, as if he had made a decision, and continued.

"So Yuan, can we ask you something?"

"Huh?" Liu Yuan naturally noticed the other party's small movements, but he didn't say anything.

"Tell me."

She wouldn't mind helping out if it was reasonable and not troublesome.

"Okay." Maika nodded, looked at the corpse of the snow worm in the distance with regret and said.

"I believe you have also seen that we lost a teammate in the trouble just now. But in the next few days, we still have to escort this Mr. De Rosso to the ice wall in the east. The problem is that the three of us, It is very likely that we will not be able to fully cope with subsequent emergencies.”

"So Yuan, if you also want to go to the east, can you walk with us all the way, we are willing to pay you as a person's reward."

"Yes, yes, yes." At this point, De Rosso, who was sitting by the side, also regained his energy and said excitedly.

"Yuan, Ms. Yuan, come with us, it's more lively if there are more people, isn't it?"

Both Jester and Kent secretly looked down on this guy who was obviously interested in sex, but they didn't say anything.

After all, traveling on the ice field is always dangerous, and Liu Yuan will obviously be a reliable teammate. If she can join, it will be like adding a layer of insurance to this mission.

No one would not want to make their life more secure, wouldn't they?

"Is it the ice wall to the east?" Liu Yuan thought briefly, and seemed to be on the way.

"What's the reward then?"

"One hundred grams of rare ore." De Rosso said with bright eyes.

"And if you want to continue eastward, I can also provide you with a map of the ice field."

De Rosso's words made Maika look slightly sideways.

Because he knew De Rosso's map, which had a very large area. It is said that the other party asked a traveling merchant to buy it at a high price.

Although they could return to the greenhouse without the map, he was a little surprised that De Rosso sent the map out like this.

Recalling some strange behaviors of the young man along the way, he always felt a little weird for no reason.

But where is the specific weirdness, but he can't say it.

"A map?" Liu Yuan continued after taking a sip of the broth.

"May I see it?"

"Of course." De Rosso generously took out the map and spread it in front of Liuyuan.

Liu Yuan lowered his head and examined it seriously for a while, and had to admit that this map was indeed drawn very finely, and the range was also unusually wide.

Extending from Greenhouse No. [-] in the west to Greenhouse No. [-] in the east, such a map is very rare these days.

"Yes." After confirming the value of the map, Liuyuan immediately agreed to De Rosso's request.

Coincidentally, she doesn't remember the road to the East and West Ice Fields very clearly.

It's better to have a map than to walk around by yourself.

"Great." De Rosso put away the map with a smile, then seemed to remember something, scratched his cheek and said in embarrassment.

"Ms. Yuan, I once again apologize for what I said to you last time. I obviously misunderstood what you meant that day. I'm sorry."

"It's nothing." Talking about this topic, Liu Yuan's plain expression rarely changed. To be honest, she still hasn't figured out what happened that day.

After lunch, De Rosso went to pack his things.

The three employers, Mica, Kent, and Jester, got together and held a small funeral for their teammates.Although what can be buried is only some of her relics and a hand.

There is no one else around.

At this time, Al who was sitting next to Liuyuan finally opened his mouth and spoke out.

"Liu Yuan, the way you killed that monster just now is very strange."

Her voice was very soft, if it wasn't for Liu Yuan's hearing that was different from ordinary people, she might not be able to hear her clearly.

"Really?" Liu Yuan smiled wryly, drinking a glass of snow water in his hand and said.

"Yeah." Al nodded calmly, lowered his eyes, and after a while, he slowly raised his eyes and asked.

"Liuhara, do you hate them?"

This time Liu Yuan was silent for a while until she finished drinking the water in the glass.

"Hate." The homeless replied with a smile.

"Because they killed my friend once."

"Right in front of me..."
