First story

A man lost his way in a snowstorm and strayed into the mountains.At this time a woman appeared in front of him, this person is Xue Nu.

Xuenv said: Would you like to exchange your most precious thing for my clothes?

The man said: "Aren't you cold? My most precious thing is this gun." Xuenv said no. "That money? This straw hat?" Xuenv said it was neither. She took advantage of the time when the man was talking and came behind the man and said, "It's your warm heart dripping with blood."

Second story

The girl pointed at the dark mountain ahead without saying a word.Moji let the girl sit in his back basket and walked to the deep mountain.That girl was Yuki, who sucked the soul out of a man just as he was exhausted and let her go.

The man's steps became slower and slower, and the snow girl's smile became colder and colder.Finally, Mokichi opened his lips that had been closed for a long time and turned his head.Yuki-onna greeted him with a bright smile.

The man asked: "Are you cold?" Xue Nu was stunned and did not speak.The man continued to walk forward, asking her "Are you cold?" "Are you hungry?" "Come on, come on" and so on...

Xuenv always nodded in response, her voice became smaller and smaller, and then she stopped.Men are worried.Looking back, I found that there was nothing in the back basket, only a basket of Baixue.Moji, a man, melted Yukionna's indifferent heart with his love.

Not only that, but also the appearance of the elves.

Elves (English: Elf) are creatures that appear in Germanic mythology (Norse mythology). They are often depicted as Germanic people with slightly longer pointed ears, holding bows and arrows, blond, tall and similar in size to humans. , this is because they appeared as a race for the first time in the Germanic myths of Norway and Germania, and in the five Nordic countries and Scandinavia, there are mostly blond Germans.

The elves are extremely beautiful and live in the deepest part of the forest.Other creatures that are easily confused with elves (Elf) include Fairy (fairy, goblin) and Goblin (Goblin).Generally speaking, it is generally believed that Elf (elf) has no wings, while Fairy (fairy, goblin) has wings (beam wings of dragonflies or scale wings of moths and butterflies), and they are smaller and easier to fly.

Other Goblins and elves are often depicted as being shorter in stature, wearing pointed hats (sometimes with bells), and pointed shoes.

Origin of the elves
The origin of the elves is like this in Germanic mythology: after the great god Odin killed the giant Ymir, the elves were born from the giant's corpse, absorbed the essence of the giant, and became spiritual creatures. Among them, the elves were born on the side of the corpse facing the light. They are also called light elves, and those born from the backlight are dark elves.The bright elves are all shiny, bright and dazzling, and they are very beautiful.They are usually gentle, cheerful and enthusiastic, and can communicate with trees, flowers, fish and birds, so the gods regard them as their friends.Dark elves have dark skin and silver-white hair, and are often considered a symbol of evil.

icelandic legend

One day, Eve was washing the child by the river, and then God came to her and she hid the unwashed child.God asked "if all the children are here", and Eve acquiesced.God was very angry when he heard this, "There is no need to hide the children from me!", so they can no longer live among human beings. "Then those children were turned into beautiful fairies.

In many places, people believe that elves are fallen angels, or some pagans whose good deeds are not enough to ascend to heaven after death, but whose sins are not enough to settle in hell, so they settle in both. The middle kingdom between them is called the elves.
