Late at night, the temperature was much colder than during the day, and Wendy returned to the village alone.

He has been here so many times, so it stands to reason that he should have attracted the attention of the demon god guarding here.

And he even brought a child over.

But the demon god never made any movement. He didn't know whether he was watching from behind or not in the village at all.

At this moment, Wendy took the child to the village and chose a suitable roof. After standing and watching, he suddenly fell to the ground.

The little boy obviously didn't react. He looked at Wendy dully. After a long time, he grabbed his sleeve and started calling "Mom" again.

Seeing that Wendy remained silent, the little boy became anxious.

"Mom, get up, Mom!"

Seeing that he kept shouting anxiously but never cried, Wendy was a little confused, but now was not the time to be confused.

He reached out with a trembling hand, grabbed the little boy's wrist, and looked at him with a pitiful look.

He looked trembling, as if he was going to fall to the ground in the next second and die of illness: "Village chief...treat the illness...save mom."

After saying that, he coughed violently, as if he was about to cough out his lungs.

Upon hearing his order, the little boy ran away immediately, and Wendy breathed a sigh of relief.

Lying on the ground and looking at the pale green aurora in the sky, I felt a little melancholy.

Although I accepted the fact that I had returned to 2,600 years ago, it still felt like a dream.

But now is not the time to sigh. We should wait until Mondstadt is established to sigh about life.

Wendy tilted her head and peeked at the little boy running away.

I saw him running all the way to the innermost part of the village, and then standing in front of a huge ice tree.

At that moment, Ice Tree Wendy had already seen it when she first came to the village.

But at that time, he only sighed at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature, and once dreamed of using the wind to trim the tree into a more delicate shape.

From this point of view, this tree may be to the villagers what the future Aeolus statue will be to the Mondstadt people.

Wendy was thankful that she was attracted by the weirdness of the village and the timid Edwin and didn't really do anything to the tree.

The little boy lowered his head and didn't know what he was doing. Then he knelt in front of the ice tree, as if praying devoutly.

Looking at that little figure from behind, Wendy felt a little moved in her heart. The always confident God actually doubted whether this was taking advantage of a child.

And he was kneeling like that in the snow and ice. Isn't it cold?

"How should I make him realize the fact that I am not his mother?" Wendy murmured to herself.

Just when he was distressed, he never thought that the child's prayer actually had an effect.

The light blue elemental power gathers at the roots and climbs up the trunk with light blue light.

Then it spread to every branch of the tree, from the branches to the leaves, and ice-blue flowers bloomed.

At this moment, the entire tree was like an icy blue sculpture with lights, lighting up the village in the dark, as if the unknown demon god was responding to the prayers of his people.

It looked like everyone was praying in front of the Seven Heavens Statue after the Demon God War.

"Oh, if he answers prayers, he won't be a demon who loves the people, right? If that's the case, does that mean I can discuss with him, join forces or something?"

Wendy looked at the situation and thought.

At this time, a figure appeared under the giant tree. He was wearing a white windbreaker and had long ice-blue hair. He looked extremely gentle.

He walked up to the boy and helped him up. After asking, he took the boy's hand and walked towards Wendy.

Wendy immediately turned her head and leaned against the wall and began to pretend to be weak. He closed his eyes and covered his head, pretending to be in pain.

Fortunately, among the seven gods of acting and other things, he was ranked first and no one dared to be ranked second.

He suppressed the elemental power in his body by the way. So far, he didn't want to reveal his identity. He would catch him by surprise when the time was right. This was his favorite trick.

"This... young man?"

He was still thinking blindly when a gentle male voice sounded. Wendy opened her eyes and saw this man with long ice blue hair having a pair of ice blue eyes.

Those eyes are not as cold as the ice element, but they look extremely gentle.

He stretched out his hand to Wendy: "This young man, where are you from?"

Wendy did not hold his hand, but shook her head hard: "I have a headache now...I can't say...too many words..."

The man's handsome brows furrowed, he knelt down, put his cold hand on Wendy's forehead, and his expression gradually turned serious.

Then, he asked: "Do you have any symptoms of chills, headache, general weakness, and breathlessness?"

Wendy nodded with difficulty.

"Well, I am the doctor and village chief here. I will take you to my house to rest."

After that, the village chief stretched out his hand to Wendy, helped him up from the snow, then picked him up and took him and Na and the little boy to the giant tree.

Walk under the giant tree. There is a cave under the giant tree. You will only find it after entering.

The village chief carried Wendy on his back and walked to the cave. Just when Wendy thought he was going in, she didn't know what the man did. The stone door slowly closed, blocking the cave door.

Immediately afterwards, the village chief took him to another house.

Just when he was about to go in, the village chief stopped, turned his head and looked at the boy and said softly: "Claudia, you can't go in."

After saying that, the village chief opened the door and walked in with Wendy on his back.

Wendy turned her head and saw the boy standing in front of the door, staring at Wendy without fear of the cold, with a kind of worry and reluctance in his indifferent eyes.

Wendy grinned at him, then stopped looking at him, turned her head and continued to moan in pain.

The village chief carried Wendy on his back and placed him on the sofa, then closed the door and went upstairs to turn over the quilt.

While he was away, Wendy pretended to moan while observing the room.

The village chief's house is no more luxurious than other residents' houses. Like other houses in the village, it is a two-story house with a fireplace.

What deserves Wendy's attention is the interior of the house.

There is a huge portrait hanging on the wall of the house. It is the village chief holding the waist of a blond woman. Behind him is the sun half beyond the horizon. It is impossible to tell whether this is a sunrise or a sunset.

The woman had a shy smile and a blush on her face. She did not look at the painter, but lowered her eyes and leaned tightly into the village chief's arms.

The village chief's eyes were also looking at the top of the woman's head. The doting look in his eyes was clearly visible, and there was a happy smile on his lips.

They looked like a newlywed couple, full of love and affection.

It's just that although the room is clean, there are no traces of the hostess's life. There is only a single cup on the table, there is also a pillow on the sofa, and there are no women's shoes at the door.

If they hadn't separated later, his wife might have passed away.

And since the painting is still hanging like this, I'm afraid it can only be the latter.

At this time, footsteps came downstairs, and Wendy immediately lay down, closing her eyes and pretending to feel uncomfortable.

"The quilts and everything in the house are all new. Don't worry. I just don't have any extra toiletries, so I'm sorry for you."

With that said, the village chief covered him with the quilt and walked to Wendy to observe him. Sometimes he felt the temperature of his forehead with his hand, and sometimes he listened to the sound of his breathing.

"When did you develop symptoms?" the village chief asked.

His appearance was very gentle, and he didn't look like someone with evil intentions at all like An Liwei said.

"When I came to the village this morning... it was okay. I wanted to stay overnight in the evening, but I couldn't... walk..."

After hearing Wendy talk about this morning, the village chief looked at Wendy a little more carefully.

Noticing his appearance, Wendy coughed twice with difficulty: "I... I saw that everyone in the village ignored me... I made a little joke with everyone... I'm sorry..."

Hearing what he said, the village chief also noticed the Eye of God on his waist, and then immediately smiled and said: "It's okay, was it you who entered the village last night?"
