After passing through the green forest, the temperature was getting higher and higher. After passing through a mountain, they actually saw the desert.
In the Kelaf Mountains, there were countless high mountains connected, and each mountain was higher than the last. After passing through a mountain, there were countless higher mountains blocking the way. In the era of balance, many adventurers had tried to climb the highest peak of the Kelaf Mountains, but most of them never returned. Almost all of them returned halfway.
And the High Mountain Tribe, a strange tribe that lived in the Kelaf Mountains, very few people knew of their existence. In recent times, almost no one had seen them.
Two lines of footprints and a line were left on the sand dune. The desert at night was completely different from the desert during the day. One was so cold that it made people shiver, while the other was so hot that it made people go crazy.
But fortunately, on this cold night, there was a warm bonfire beside them. A small hole was dug in the sand, and there was only a piece of wood the size of a finger burning inside. It was reasonable to say that this poor piece of wood should have burned out in a minute, but it had been burning for several hours.
Reina sat by the bonfire and leaned on her master. She never thought that she could lean on her master like a kitten. In the past, she would definitely be knocked on the head for doing that. But tonight, she said that she was cold, so her master let her stay by his side.
Her master was very warm, and his body emitted an incredible magic power. Just by relying on him, she could resist the cold.
The Demon King drew a circle on the ground of the sand dune, and with the help of the stars in the sky, he cast some kind of ancient magic. The light of the stars turned into a thin strand that shone on the circle drawn by the Demon King. Suddenly, a map appeared.
"They have been here."
The Demon King suddenly said. His eyes were looking at the constantly changing map, and Reina couldn't understand it no matter how hard she tried.
"It was a few months ago. They only took one day to cross the desert. You see, there are quite a few of them, and there may be your relatives among them." The Demon King happily pointed at the shining sand on the ground.
However, Reina couldn't be happy. She squeezed out a smile and boldly grabbed her master's hand.
It would be great if she could never find her relatives.
That was what she thought.
The next morning, the Demon King set off with Reina after finding the direction. After flying for two hours, they finally saw the end of the desert. It was a canyon.
The Demon King did not intend to waste any time, so he cast a spell and used the surrounding wood and stones to build a bridge that was almost a thousand meters long.
On the other side of the canyon was a deep forest, but the strange thing was that the leaves here were all yellow, and they were falling one by one.
"Master, look! What beautiful leaves! "
Reina happily collected the big, strange, and brightly colored leaves.
"What a wonderful place. Have we passed through the seasons?"
Mr. Ball was also in disbelief.
"This is a phenomenon caused by the excessive concentration of magic. The plants here are also much larger than those in other places."
The Demon King said, but it was also because of this abundant magic power that he was unable to find the guiding star.
However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a wisp of green smoke appear in the forest.
"Someone? Could it be the people of the High Mountain Tribe? "
The Demon King immediately took Reina in that direction. There were many fruits hanging on the trees, but the two did not stop because of this. Finally, the two came to the place where the green smoke was. There was a small house there, a small house made of stone.
It was strange that there were people living in such a place. Were the people living here from the High Mountain Tribe?
With doubts, the Demon King came to the front of the house.
This was an exquisite house, at least it looked like a fairytale house. There were some herbs around the house, and it could be seen that the owner of the house put a lot of effort into taking care of it.
Knock knock ~
The Demon King knocked on the door.
"Is anyone there?"
Of course, he knew that there was only one person inside.
A voice asked from inside, "Who is it?"
"We are travelers passing by here. If it is convenient, we would like to ask you something."
The other side of the door was quiet for a while. After a while, the sound of unhurried footsteps came, and the wooden door creaked open. The one who opened the door was an old woman with white hair. Her eyes were full of unfriendliness, as if the world owed her something.
She glanced at the two, and then her eyes stopped on Reina. She did not know if it was an illusion, but Reina felt that the old woman seemed to hate her. When she looked at her, her brows were slightly wrinkled.
Although there were a few wrinkles on her forehead …
"Come in."
What was unexpected was that the old lady actually allowed the two of them to enter so easily.
The house was covered with wooden floors and many quaint furniture. Although the place was not big, it felt very warm. This place satisfied Reina's imagination of a home.
There was a place in the burning fireplace that could be used to boil water. The old woman did not seem to like to talk. She silently boiled a pot of hot tea and took out two cups from the cupboard.
"Why did you come here?"
After the old woman poured the tea and the two thanked her, she suddenly asked.
"We are looking for her family. I heard that they live in this mountain range."
The Demon King replied.
The old woman raised her eyes and looked at Reina. When she was looked at, Reina had a strange feeling.
The Demon King put down the teacup in his hand and asked, "Do you know where the people of the High Mountain Tribe are?"
However, the old woman did not answer his question. Instead, she focused on Reina and said, "How old are you?"
Reina was stunned. She was a little nervous and stammered, "I, I don't know."
She really did not know how old she was.
The old woman then looked at the Demon King. The Demon King just shook his head.
"What happened? You don't even know how old you are. Then do you know your name? "The old woman seemed to be a little angry and spoke a little louder.
"My name is Reina."
Reina answered weakly.
"Surname?"
The old woman continued to ask.
Reina shook her head. Since she was young, she only had this name and no surname.
"When I met her, she was alone."
The Demon King suddenly said when Reina could not take it anymore.
The old woman sighed softly and said, "Then you should at least know your parents' names."
The Demon King did not ask about this matter. He also looked at Reina.
However, Reina's eyes were already filled with tears. She shook her head sadly. She really did not know.
"Heavens, then how did others call your parents?"
The old woman muttered.
"Witch …"
Reina replied while sobbing softly. She lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly.
The Demon King and the old woman fell silent. This was also the reason why the Demon King did not dare to ask more.
The old woman let out a long sigh, her expression softening a lot. She reached out her skinny hand and wiped away the tears on Reina's face. But at this moment, the old woman's bracelet emitted a faint light.
The old woman's eyes opened slightly and looked at Reina in shock.
