A few minutes later, the two saw the lake. In the snow-covered world, a blue lake suddenly appeared, which was actually quite conspicuous.
Not to mention that there is a large area of green grassland beside the lake, as well as a large flaming red forest. This forest spreads northward, but is blocked by a black hill. On the other side of the mountain is a world of ice and snow. .
It's not like the depths of the north at all, but it is reminiscent of the southern coast.
The two masters and disciples landed on the edge of the lake. Hermione reached out to touch the surface of the water after getting permission, and found that the water was not only not cold at all, but also extremely warm.
"I didn't see other rivers. This may be a geothermal hot spring, but there is no sulphur smell, and there is no heat rising in the sky. It's weird."
She curiously picked up a little water with her small hand, put it under her nose and smelled it, and then looked at the professor curiously with big eyes.
"This is the magic of the old gods in this world. It is easy to change heaven and earth in the heyday. Even in the declining age, it is possible to create a special area between the ice and snow." Su Ming looked at the fish in the lake. Swim around, let the strangling fish out: "The one we are going to visit is a druid, please bring some gifts."
This wild fish is quite big and its species is unknown.
"But it always feels a bit miserable to live in seclusion here. There is no one in the surrounding area. Is it really okay to be here as a spellcaster?" The little witch shook her hand and stood up and looked around.
It was fine when I looked down in the air, but after I fell on the ground, I looked at the snowy landscape in all four directions, and there was always an indescribable sense of loneliness.
"This is a long story. Let's walk in the woods first. I will tell you about it."
The death knell pulled a few grasses and rubbed the rope, passed the operculum of the big fish, and lifted it up. The blood of the fish drew a dotted line on the ground, and the two walked towards the red forest.

These trees are all Weirwood (Weirwood), they are a kind of deciduous trees originally spread all over the continent of Westeros, but there is no such large area in other places.
The bark is pale, and the leaves are dark red, just like blood-stained palms, and the trunk is carved with human faces. If it is seen by ordinary people at night, it can be said to be very scary.
These faces are said to have been carved by the ancient "Children of the Forest" before the ancestors crossed the sea, in order to worship the old gods.
After the ancestors arrived, they gradually accepted the beliefs of the old gods, followed this custom, and continued to carve on the fish beam wood.
Every few decades, when the stars reach a certain position, people will squeeze out red juice from the leaves of fish beam wood, and dye the carved eyes of the human face red. Whenever the juice melts and flows down, it looks like a tree is weeping. blood.
In the old beliefs of gods on this continent, trees play a very important role, and the same is true for connecting noble families who have received this belief.
They will leave a large area in their castle to plant a variety of trees, called the sacred wood forest, and plant a fish beam wood in the sacred wood forest, called the heart tree.
The heart tree is very sacred to the believers of the old gods. They pray, swear, and sign marriage contracts in front of the tree, believing that they can get the testimony of the old **** and those who violate it will not die.
The Green Prophet, who is going to visit on the death knell, has the same ability as a druid. They can connect into the fish beam to monitor the distance of a certain fish beam tens of thousands of kilometers away, and they can also read the trees. Memory.
An oak tree can live for three hundred years, a mahogany tree can live for three thousand years, and a fish beam can live forever without being disturbed by external forces, so it can be said to be a living body database.
Forever in the true sense, until the moment the world is destroyed.
However, as the invading Andals brought the belief of the Seven Gods, all the southern fish beams were eradicated, leaving only the northern border which was never conquered, and the widespread use of fish beams.
Sometimes wild people will bow to trees and chant unclear language. Their bloodlines are closer to their ancestors, and some magic can even communicate with animals.
Why are there so many fish beams in the place where the death knell was found? Of course, it did not occur naturally, but after the invasion of the Seven Gods, the Green Prophet retreated north, and their servants brought a lot of seeds to create a new "Peach Blossom Spring" here.
These servants are the children of the forest.
They were the aborigines of Westeros before. Long before the ancestors of the Dawn Era came to Westeros, they lived in various places on the mainland.
For the inhabitants of this world today, there are too many unknowns in the children of the forest. This humanoid race with magic has disappeared from human vision for many years.
In the legend, poets and historians describe them as short humanoid creatures, not much taller than children, pale skin and beautiful faces. Giants call them ‘Uda Nagan’, meaning squirrel people.
And Su Ming knows more information. The Sons of the Forest means "people who sing praises to the earth" in their own "source language".
Same as other druid systems in the world who believe in nature, the children of the forest do not use metal, animal fur, and do not build cities.
They use stone tools, weave clothes from leaves, and use bark as leggings. In the past, they only lived in deep forests, caves, islands and secret trees, and they seemed to blend with the forest.
The Son of the Forest has supernatural powers, can use magic, can control the beasts in the jungle, and can even become like a beast. UU Reading www.uukａnshu.com
In addition, they are kind in nature, good at bows and arrows, and love music. It is said that hearing their music can make the executioner cry like a baby.
In view of these characteristics, Su Ming thinks they may be a certain kind of half-elf, maybe a hybrid of dwarf and elves? But it could also be the magical creation of the old gods? It's interesting anyway.

Walking in the woods, the death knell was telling these stories to the students. Just after the guess about the origin of the son of the forest, a woman's voice suddenly came from the tree beside him:
"Humans, get out of here, this is our territory."
Su Ming smiled when he heard this sound. He turned his head to look at the fish beam on the side. Between the red palm-shaped leaves, a small face was exposed. She looked bulging, and the Chinese lingua franca was quite standard .
Hermione could not understand this language, but it was no problem for the death knell. He had read the basic ability of language in the brains of the three dead night watchmen through strangulation.
While holding down Hermione who was about to draw out the pistol, he handed the big fish to the apprentice. The death knell waved to the tree and asked in the common Chinese language:
"Is it'Leaf'? I am the death knell of the Supreme Mage. I am here to visit the last Green Prophet in the North, the three-eyed crow."
