==================
To prevent the situation in the afternoon from happening again, Lian Yun poured a basin of water for the snowman.
Fortunately, this time the snowman was considerate enough to cool down quickly and even spit out a basin of cut ice cubes.
Lian Yun patted its head with satisfaction and shared the ice between the two of them.
"I don't know if it will be useful, but let's use it as a preparation for now."
The three of them walked out of the house and approached the two red dots according to the location given on the map.
At the same time, the red dot was slowly moving towards them.
Lanna walked in front, holding the holy sword, while Lina followed behind Lianyun, holding the stone hammer nervously in both hands.
Xiaobai stood on Lian Yun's shoulder, raised his nose and sniffed the air a few times, then nudged his owner with his front paws.
"Wait." Lian Yun called them softly.
The two looked over and saw Lian Yun move away and hide in the street nearby.
She waved at the two of them, "Hide, they're coming."
Sure enough, as soon as the three of them entered the alley, they heard footsteps coming from the corner of the street.
It was a man's deep voice, sounding very surprised: "There is really no one..."
The man's footsteps gradually approached until the three of them could see his appearance clearly.
Just an ordinary man.
He was a bit sloppy, with curly brown hair and a full beard that looked like they had never been trimmed. But he was wearing normal clothes, looked in good spirits, and everything seemed normal.
Except for one thing—
"Then where is the food you mentioned? There are no people, where will the food come from?"
The man was talking to himself.
Lian Yun gave up the idea of going out and showing herself. She reasonably suspected that this man might have some mental problems.
She lowered her head and looked at Lina questioningly.
After all, Lina's village is the only place with living people around the desert, maybe she would know him.
But Lina shook her head.
She had never met this person.
Just as the two of them made eye contact, the temperature around them suddenly rose.
It's even worse than the high temperature this afternoon.
And the sun has already set.
Lian Yun and Lana looked at each other and almost confirmed each other's guess - there was something wrong with this man.
Lanna held the ice tightly in his hand, frowning.
The cold sting of the ice made him extremely clear-headed.
He knew very well that both he and Lina were in danger in this temperature, and they might not be able to hold on for long before the situation in the afternoon happened again.
Although Lian Yun has a high defense, he has no help and has to take care of the two of them. How should he deal with it?
We can't wait any longer. It will do them no good to delay any further.
Lana's eyes darkened, and his right arm holding the sword slightly rotated to an angle to launch an attack at any time, hanging by his side, ready to go.
He walked out of the darkness of the alley and came to the man.
“…”
The sudden appearance of the person made the man stand there in shock, looking stunned.
Lanna stood still, watching the man in front of him seriously.
If he makes any dangerous moves, Lanna hopes to be able to react immediately.
Use the results of all those years of hard training, and when necessary, make a desperate attack.
Protect the adults.
"……ah!!!"
The man suddenly yelled, turned around and ran, even stumbling a few steps because he was too anxious.
Lanna subconsciously raised the holy sword and moved to chase after the man.
However, at this moment, a sharp gust of hot air blew past, and in the air above the man's head, a fiery red and extremely beautiful giant bird suddenly appeared.
Surprisingly, Hongniao only flapped his left wing with rich feathers, while the other wing was empty.
Even so, he can keep himself flying in the air.
The moment the red bird appeared, waves of heat came towards Lanna.
The heat wave inevitably spread to Lian Yun and Lina in the alley along with the air. The latter suddenly grabbed Lian Yun's hand and shook it.
Lina looked up at Lian Yun with shining eyes and said, "I know this bird! This is Cornelius, we all call it the one-winged bird. It has the attributes of wind and fire. One wing is attached to fire, and the other wing that cannot be seen is made of wind..."
Lian Yun was delighted and was about to ask further questions when he heard a roar and the Cornelius blocked Lanner's way.
It turned sideways and vibrated its wind wings, and a murderous wind blade came swiftly and slashed towards Lana horizontally.
The wind blade is visible to the naked eye, but it is extremely fast.
Lana swung his sword and blocked it in the air. "Ding Zheng", he resisted the attack.
Then he swung it to the side quickly, and the wind blade hit the stone bricks on the ground, immediately cutting a crack.
Lanna looked sharp and rushed forward.
Although the one-winged bird has dual attributes, it does not seem to have much practical experience. Facing Lana's attack, it can only dodge instinctively and then take advantage of the gap to release a wind blade.
With so much to see, it was only focused on fighting, and even the temperature around it was not that high.
The one-winged bird was quickly at a disadvantage. It raised its neck and screamed towards the sky, and was about to be stabbed by Lanner's sword.
"Don't!"
"etc!"
Two voices sounded at the same time.
When Lanna heard the second sound, he stopped his sword. The tip of the sword was less than a finger away from the one-winged bird's throat.
He did not remove the holy sword, but simply turned his head slightly to look at the person who made the sound, and said in a faint voice: "Sir, it is very dangerous."
Only by killing it will you be completely safe.
Lana's face was unusually calm and peaceful when he said this, which made Lina shudder and swallow back the words she was about to say.
Lian Yun, however, took no notice and stepped forward, saying, "Lina said this bird is rare. Perhaps we should ask what its intentions are—don't you agree, sir?"
Lian Yun turned to look at the brown-haired man who had shouted the first time. The latter waved his hands desperately, wanting to cry but unable to. "We have no intentions. We are just hungry! That's all."
"Please let my companion go. It followed the scent." The man's face was full of pleading and regret.
"I told you I shouldn't have come! I'll find something to eat if I look for it. At worst, I'll have to eat dirt for another week. You just wouldn't listen..." The man said angrily and annoyed, and he actually burst into tears.
Lian Yun felt that the man's appearance did not seem to be pretending, but he did not dare to take it lightly.
"The high temperature this afternoon was caused by you, right?" Lian Yun asked in a deep voice.
The man nodded while crying, then quickly shook his head. "I swear we didn't mean to do that! There's usually no one in the desert, so we can run around here anywhere. Its fire attribute doesn't affect me, so we never restrained ourselves."
"Besides, I remember there was no town here before."
"My eyesight is not good, and I didn't see the town until I ran a short distance away... The moment it saw the town, it withdrew its supernatural power. We never intended to hurt you."
The man glanced at Lian Yun cautiously and muttered weakly, "You guys are fine, why don't you just let them go..."
"How come they're all right?" Lian Yun had been listening to him patiently, but this sentence suddenly made him furious, and his voice rose involuntarily: "If it weren't for good luck, they would still be lying on the ground now!"
If I hadn't accidentally drawn a kitchen set and a snowman this morning...
How to save Lanna and Lina?
Lian Yun became angrier the more he thought about it, and he wished Lana would stab him with the sword right now.
The man was trembling with fear at being stared at, and he had no confidence to speak. "But, but people who encountered this situation before would be unconscious for a whole day... I'm sorry, I thought you were standing here because you were fine."
The people in this town are so scary. Not only can they fight, but they can also heal themselves so quickly.
"What? Isn't this the first time?" Lian Yun narrowed his eyes.
"No, no, no! That was also an accidental injury! When we were kids, we couldn't control our strength and accidentally hurt them... After that, we stayed away from places where there were people." The man explained hurriedly.
Seeing that Lian Yun was still indifferent, the man gritted his teeth, walked forward and stretched out his hands: "Or, I will change it."
Hearing this, the red bird pointed at by the sword stopped struggling and remained silent.
"Whether you did it intentionally or not, you did cause us harm." Lian Yun raised his hand to support his head, pretending to have a headache: "I can let it go, but you have to stay."
Lian Yun glanced at Lan Na, who slowly put down his sword, took a few steps back and returned to Lian Yun.
The man was puzzled by her words, but when he saw them let the red bird go, his face lit up and he hurried forward to help it up.
The red bird chirped and complained a few times, and the man scratched his head: "I was worried about you, how could you leave alone?"
He looked at Lian Yun, and the girl's uncomfortable look made him feel very guilty.
The man puffed out his chest, looking ready to die. "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Lian Yun put down his hand: "What's your name?"
"You can call me Abe. I have bear blood." The man said, pointing to the one-winged bird beside him: "Its name is Chrisry Bergko..."
“…”
Lian Yun looked at Xiaobai: Are all your monster names so long?
Lian Yun's eyes flashed, and he said expressionlessly, "Have you learned to control your abilities now?"
The man didn't expect the topic to change so quickly, so he could only nod blankly in response to her question: "Yes."
"I heard you guys run very fast?"
Aibei continued to nod: "I have the wind attribute and bear blood. I run... fairly fast, right?"
"So are you guys always hungry?"
The man nodded even more confusedly.
"That's good." After saying this, Lian Yun pulled Xiaobai off his shoulder and handed it to Lana.
Then a piece of meat bigger than her hand appeared in her hand, and she said temptingly: "Live in a small town, there is meat to eat."
Aibei was stunned. He looked at the white ball that suddenly squeaking and flopping around for some reason, then looked at the bright red piece of meat that made him extremely appetizing, and swallowed involuntarily.
"W-why?"
Lian Yun said amiably: "Because I like small animals."
Everyone: ...
"Just kidding," Lian Yun raised the corner of his lips, "Because I need more help."
"I'll use your abilities for my own benefit, and I'll provide you with enough food. That's the best of both worlds. I can even forgive your mistakes. How about that?"
Lian Yun looked at the two of them kindly and said, "If you don't want to, that's fine. I'm a very kind lord and I can let Lanna give you a ride."
