Chapter 20: A Peaceful Life, and a Restless Heart

Putting aside Udyr's sometimes neurotic behavior, among the doctors Li Ke knows, he can be ranked above the Noxian military doctor who always wants to experiment on him, and second only to those in modern times.

Doctor's.

At least he can cut out necrotic tissue very quickly, and his proficiency in suturing wounds is far beyond that of the unscrupulous military doctor in Noxus. But to put it bluntly, that's what he is. When he uses herbs, he also

They just crush up the herbs that have hemostatic effect and apply them on. The methods and methods are still very primitive.

But for Li Ke, it was the same. Although this injury would still make it difficult for him to move, it was only a matter of time before he fully recovered. The quality of Udyr's healing ability was no longer important to him.

After dealing with more than a dozen wounds on Li Ke's body, Udyr was surprised by his recovery ability, but still gave Li Ke a new tent so that he could have a good sleep and wait for Sejuani.

Bringing her people back to celebrate.

But contrary to expectations, Li Ke's sleep was not very peaceful, because when he closed his eyes, let his mind relax, and went deep into the darkness to rest, his perspective changed.

In his dream, he turned into the Gruffen he killed!

The cold sea water is so comfortable now, and the sea that seems calm to humans is so lively in Li Ke's eyes now. Not to mention all kinds of creatures, it is the water flow in different directions and different temperatures under the sea.

It already showed an unusual charm in his eyes.

Li Ke clearly knew that he was in a dream, but he could not change or make any action. He could only passively watch his body swimming in the sea, chasing the fleeing fish.

.

He didn't know how to wake up, or what was going on. The only thing he could feel now was that he was very happy, and that fish with a weird organ on its head was delicious.

He didn't panic. He felt that this should be the reason for the memories he extracted today. He just didn't know what kind of weirdness there was in this memory.

But the facts disappointed him. Until he woke up naturally, he didn't see anything weird. Apart from eating an unknown number of fish in his dream, he saw nothing, no gain, and no discomfort.

.

"It's really weird..."

When he woke up, he only felt that this kind of thing was extremely weird, but he had no one to talk to, and the smell of barbecue also made him hungry. So he quickly left without feeling any discomfort.

He took action, put on the cloak that had been delivered to him at an unknown time, climbed up from the brand new fur mat, pushed open the door curtain of his tent, and arrived at the camp where the wind and snow were flying.

It was already dark at this time, but because of the snow and torches everywhere, the visibility here was still very high. And those people who were busy during the day were now happily gathering together to drink, or chatting with themselves

His wife and children were eating at the table. The aroma of barbecue and stew was also everywhere in the camp. The laughter of children and the cheers of adults seemed to dispel the loneliness in Li Ke's heart, making Li Ke feel lonely.

He couldn't help but laugh.

Although the injuries on his body still hurt a little, he no longer needed help from others. He tightened his cloak and slowly walked from the darkness to the lively group of people, and observed their lively appearance: cheerful smiles

It was something that could not be compared to the smile in the arena. To be precise, it was not a concept at all. And the cell, which was warm but still made him feel cold, was not something that could be compared to the icy cold wind. Although

The cell had a big, soft bed, and someone specially added carbon to keep him warm, but when he thought about it now, he felt that it was not as comfortable as the icy cold wind, nor the torches dancing in the wind.

Makes people feel warm.

It took him almost no time to see Sejuani, because the person who was serving soup to people in the middle of the camp and constantly stirring the big pot was this noble war mother, the woman who made Li Ke feel cold.

But now she is no longer dressed like a warrior. Although she is still wearing thick fur clothes, her figure is revealed because of the lack of armor. The plump chest complements her strong body.

Her snow-white hair was randomly tied into a braid, swaying on her chest with her movements. Although the expression on her face was still serious, she would reveal her face when serving soup to the children.

A patient smile and constant words made the children, whose faces turned red from the cold, keep nodding.

Udyr was also beside her, and was grilling some strange-looking fish. He also held something like a wine bowl in his hand, and Li Ke saw him pouring it into his mouth.

Is this a tribe? A tribe from the Freljord?

Just as he was observing this tribe called Winter's Claw, an old-looking woman discovered him, walked over, and bowed to him.

"Are you the Immortal?"

Li Ke nodded subconsciously, but he reacted immediately.

"Yes...but my name is Li Ke, this is my name."

Immortal was his name when he was a slave of the Noxians, so he didn't really like this title-like name.

"Thank you... I'm here to thank you for saving my grandson. Since he was taken away, my life has lost all meaning. It was you who allowed him to come back to me. With such kindness, I

I don’t know how to repay you. You know, since my son was captured by the Noxians last month, I have..."

While she was speaking, she knelt down to express her respect to Li Ke. Li Ke felt a chill in his heart because he had started fighting with the Freljordians very early on.

That means her son was probably killed by herself!

But now she comes to thank herself for saving her grandson!

He didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Okay, Granny Rongjiya, didn't you see that he was so nervous that he couldn't speak? He knows your gratitude."

At this time, Sejuani came over, with a blush on her pale face, and helped Li Ke persuade the old woman who kept thanking her away, allowing Li Ke's cold body to regain its temperature.

"Udyr said you'd better sleep a little longer, so I didn't wake you up too early. But it seemed like you got up just in time, and the banquet was about to get lively... But now you look like

It's like a fish that was punched by someone."

After she persuaded the old woman to leave, she wiped her hands with her apron and walked towards Li Ke. Then she spoke something in Li Ke's ear with a very low voice.

"...His son was killed by me personally when he escaped from battle, but considering that she could still tell stories to the children and teach them to pick herbs and berries, I did not tell her the truth, but told her

Her son was captured by the Noxians. So her son was indeed not killed by you, so you can accept her thanks with peace of mind. You are indeed her hero."

Li Ke felt a little better, but there was still a thorn in his heart. He knew that he was right and that he was also trying to live, but this feeling still made him feel sad and unwilling. And these two emotions were also in his heart.

It constantly turned into anger towards Noxus and people like the general.

So when he looked at Sejuani, he suddenly had a hunch that he might not be able to enjoy peace here for too long, because once he saw someone from Noxus oppressing others, he would be very worried.

He may risk his life again and challenge those damn oppressors.

Moreover, the fire of revenge in his heart has not been completely extinguished yet.

"So enjoy the banquet. After everyone comes together, they will all know you and accept your existence, and you will no longer be a slave of Noxus, but a warrior of Winter's Claw. I

The future blood alliance."

Sejuani grabbed Li Ke's hand, and the smile on her face was very nice and beautiful. But at this time, Li Ke lost the urgent desire to live peacefully. He didn't know whether he wanted to

He chose to become a member of Winter's Claw to live a peaceful life. He is not even sure that he still yearns for a peaceful life, so he really can't give Sejuani a clear reply because reality gives him time to think.

It's really too little.

"I hope so."
