The white five-petal flowers exude a sweet aroma, which turns into a tasteless liquid and flows into the throat after the mouth.

Sheld opened his eyes and stood on the bank of the river, realizing clearly that he was dreaming.

Just like in the dreams of the past hundreds of years, the young man with chestnut curly hair is sitting on the other side of the river, with his feet in the water, the corners of his eyes are not covered with wrinkles, and his temples are not stained with frost.

The strings of the zither in his arms were gently plucked by his fingers, and he hummed a little tune from his hometown with a smile on his face.

Shield stepped into the river, and the water flowed around the algae-covered stones on the river bed, squeezed into his shoes and socks, and a chill spread from the soles of his feet.

Sheld lifted his feet and walked towards the other side of the river. Although the distance was only ten meters, it seemed like he had walked for a long time.There were some more people on the river bank when they came, and they waved their hands to let Sheld come back.

The raven twittered from behind, it folded its wings, and stood on the shoulder of another self that appeared by the river bank at some point.

The man opened his mouth and said a word, which was brought to Shield's ear by the wind: "I heard the voice of death."

He said, "Wendell, I hear death."

The people on the other side of the river stopped playing at some point, and just sat there, looking at Sheld standing in the middle of the river.

Do you want to come over?His eyes seemed to be asking.

Shield ignored the movement behind him, raised his foot and took another step forward, and finally stopped at a position more than one meter away from Wendell, unable to get any closer.

Sheld stretched out his hand to the sitting man, Wendell stood up, stretched out his hand, barely touching his fingertips.

At that moment, the icy cold air passed from the touching fingertips, and Sheld tried to stretch his hands forward to touch the cold and stiff body.

"Wendel..."

The crowing of the raven behind him was even louder, appearing in his ears.

Sheld opened his eyes in his sleep, and the raven sat on the bedside, tilting his head and looking at himself, holding the letter sent by Sheld in his mouth.

Sheld took down the letter: "Is there a visitor?"

Ulea and his party followed the skeleton wrapped in black robes to Sheld's residence, a small courtyard with white walls and red tiles, vines climbed up the walls, and reached into the small attic with open windows.

In the letter Yulea wrote to Sheld before coming here, she mentioned that she would bring Xie Ning here, and Sheld was not particularly surprised to see the dumpling beside Ulea.

Xie Nin, who was following Uriah, was a little surprised when he saw Sheard. Xie Nin always thought that Xie De was an old man, but after meeting him, he discovered that he was actually a young man.

Shield approached Xie Nin, and looked down carefully at the horn on his head.

Ulea watched his movements, and guessed that Sheld might know something about the identity of the group: "Have you seen his people?"

Sheld nodded, and he said to Xie Ning: "I have seen your people in the mirror lake on Mount Snobia in the east." The golden behemoths lived in groups on the snow field, with wings made of elements growing out of their backs, soaring into the sky.

Sheld recalled the scene that appeared in the mirror, the architectural style completely different from the Eastern Continent and all kinds of strange monsters: "They should live in another continent."

"Is there a way to go to the Western Continent?"

"You want to send him back to the Clan?"

"Maybe his parents and relatives are waiting for him to go back there." Although Ulea was a little reluctant to send the dumpling back, for the cub, returning to the group was more suitable than staying with him.

Ulea looked down at the cub lying obediently at her feet: "I don't even know his race."

"I haven't heard of a way to cross the Sonova Sea." The Sonova Sea will sink everything that floats on the sea, and all creatures that try to fly through this sea area will fall from the sky, separating the east and west continents .

Sheld asked Uriah to go to the study, where he stored all kinds of books he had collected for thousands of years: "Maybe you can find a way to cross the Sonova Sea here."

Uriah nodded, and went into the study to look through the materials. Outside, Jonas was very interested in Sheld's plants. He had gone out to look for various plants as early as when Uriah was talking to Shelder, and soon there were only Bottom and the squatting dumpling.

Botram glanced at the two people who entered the study, and his eyes fell on a skeleton holding a rag to wipe the vase, grabbed the rag from it, approached the stairs, and walked towards the study.

When Sheld came out of the study, he just saw him holding a rag, and the skeleton who had been robbed of the rag followed him step by step: "Botlem?"

Botleme put the rag on the armrest and wiped it vigorously: "I just saw that it wasn't clean."

Sheld believed it, thinking of Botlem's recent letter saying that he had inherited the position of patriarch from his father, he felt a little relieved in his eyes: "Congratulations."

Perhaps because of becoming the patriarch, Bothlem is much more stable than when Sheld saw him last time. Sheld said, "You have changed a lot."

Botram was a little awkward when he looked at the younger generation, "

Hmm" sounded.

When the two passed by, Botram suddenly said, "You seem to be getting older."

"A lich never grows old," said Sheard.

Botram watched him go further and further, and his eyes fell on the statue that fell out of Sheld's sleeve.He picked up the wooden statue from the ground, and shouted to the back in front: "Hey!"

Shield looked back suspiciously, and Botram waved the statue in his hand: "You dropped something."

Sheld went back and put the statue back into his pocket: "Thank you."

Xie Ning, who watched the whole thing in the living room, got up from the ground after the two of them left, climbed up the stairs, walked to the door of the study, and squeezed in through the hidden door.

Ulea, who was turning the pages of the book, heard the movement and looked towards the door, just in time to grab a dumpling that she thought she was very careful.

When he met Uriah's gaze, he tilted his head and let out a "chirp". Uriah put the book on the table and beckoned to Tuanzi with one hand: "Come here."

The Danko who got permission ran over and lay down next to Yuriah.

After Yulia glanced at him, he concentrated his energy on the books at hand. There were a few books on the left and a pile on the right.

Yulia, who simply flipped through and found nothing useful, put aside the books she had read, and was going to look for them again in the study.

Eyes fell on the comfortably sleeping Tuanzi, Yulea pulled a piece of paper from the drawer, dipped the quill with ink, and wrote a few characters on the paper.

Yulea pinched Tuanzi's nose, and Xie Ning, who was not breathing well, subconsciously opened his mouth to breathe, but then the mouth breathing was also blocked, Xie Ning opened his eyes, and saw Yulea's magnified face.

Yuria picked up Danzi and showed him the characters on the paper.

"These words mean 'Western Continent'."

Xie Ning subconsciously looked down at his paws, they were still fluffy and hadn't turned into hands. He looked at Yulea with some doubts, obviously with his current situation, he couldn't read or write.

Ulea pushed the paper in front of him: "Go and help me find the book."

Okay, got it.

Xie Ning nodded, stared at the paper for a while, felt that he remembered it, and walked towards the bookshelf with the paper in his mouth.

Yulia returned to the desk with a pile of books in her arms, and Tuanzi also found a few books from the bottom of the bookshelf, and carefully walked over with a book with a brown cover in her mouth, and placed it on the crooked pile of books.

Sheld has a lot of books, including many books about the Western Continent, but most of them are unfounded guesses, and Uriah didn't find anything useful.

The skeleton knocked on the door when dinner was ready, and Uriah noticed that it was getting dark.

At dinner, Xie Ning saw the biscuits that Jonas said Wendell and Uriah liked very much. The biscuits were baked into a burnt brown color, with chopped nuts on top, and a layer of white icing, exuding a tantalizing sweet smell.

The dumpling was seated next to Ureya, and Ureya also saw the eyes of the dumpling staring at the biscuit, poured a glass of water and put it next to him, then took a biscuit from the plate and fed it to him.

Sure enough, after swallowing the biscuits, Tuanzi bowed his head and took a big sip of water.

Xie Nin felt his mouth was still sweet after drinking the water. I don't know how much sugar Sheld put in the biscuit. The overly sweet taste of the biscuit makes people feel tired. According to Xie Nin's understanding of Uriah, he probably wouldn't like this either. That's right.

But Ulea, who was beside her, took a bite of a biscuit, and seemed to like it very much.

It wasn't until before going to bed at night that Uriah told Tuanzi: "A lich has no sense of taste, so he can't control how much sugar to put in."

Tuanzi nodded.

Ureya turned off the lights, and one person and one beast slept on the bed, which was a bit crowded. Ureya hugged the dumpling to her side, fearing that he would fall off the bed.

"Do you want to go back to your people?"
