Chapter 349 Exiles
The patriarch trembled slightly, as if he was thinking about how to speak.
He knelt on the ground, gripping the ground with his fingers, as if looking for a reason to continue speaking.
After a while, he finally raised his head and whispered:
"We are the exiles who were fled here..."
You Su slightly raised his eyebrows, and his thoughts turned out to be true.
As soon as the old man said this, the surrounding tribesmen lowered their heads even lower.
"If you can escape to this uninhabited land, I'm afraid you have committed an unforgivable sin." You Su scooped up a bowl of venison soup, put it to the tip of his nose and inhaled deeply. He had not smelled the aroma of hot meat for a long time. It gave him the feeling of finally returning to human society.
And his casual tone made the sin in his mouth hurt the old man's heart even more.
The old man raised his eyes and glanced at the young man, with deep regret in his eyes:
"We are indeed guilty."
Xiao Lu listened in confusion. She remembered that the patriarch was always in a daze at the silver-covered world, and murmured: "Snow buries the earth, and also covers more other things."
< br>
She didn't understand the deep meaning of this sentence, but now that she thought about it, she could vaguely grasp the meaning.
"No need to beat around the bush, just state the purpose directly." You Su replied coldly.
The old man was stunned, as if he did not expect the young man to be so decisive, but he did not hesitate and said:
"We want to ask Master Immortal to save us!"
"The price?" You Su asked back.
His ruthlessness also made Xiaolu a little surprised. In the eyes of the little girl, this Lord God still seemed relatively amiable. But in front of his tribe, he became indifferent and callous.
The old man trembled, "You may not know that you are coming from a very far away place, but it is not easy to leave this Arctic snowfield. We can take you out, but you also need to do us a favor."
"Do you know that I come from a far away place?" You Su asked in a cold voice.
"You don't have the rough feeling of ice and snow on your body. At least you are not from Bei Aozhou." The old man did not raise his head.
You Su knew that although the old man's words were a bit abstract, it was indeed this reason that made him make his judgment. There are indeed extremely obvious differences between people living in the frozen world and people living among the fragrance of flowers and birds, such as skin color, clothing, tone of voice, etc.
"Doesn't it mean that foreigners are easy to deceive?" Of course, You Su would not trust the other party's deal easily.
"The Arctic snowfield is frozen all year round, and snow drifts thousands of miles away, but it is by no means a barren and barren land everywhere. The white snow has also given birth to treasures unique to this world. If there are no weird things in the snowfield, there should still be a city north of the Arctic City. "The old man replied.
You Su frowned, what the clan leader said was true.
Human greed has destined them not to stop exploring. If they stop, either the way forward will kill them, or the way forward will be unprofitable at all. "The fact that I can walk here from the edge of the glacier shows that I don't need your help." You Su still hoped to force the old man to tell more.
The old man also fulfilled his wish: "You can walk for five days or seven days in the vast white snow, but you can't walk for a month. We spent many lives to find this road home."
"Why be alarmist? There are stars in the sky. If you follow their guidance and go south, you can always get out. This road is in the sky, not under your feet." You Su was a little puzzled by their ignorance.
"Yes, but the most terrifying thing in the world is not not being able to find the direction." The old man raised his head, his eyes flashing, "The most terrifying thing is finding the direction, but knowing that the road will not reach the other side. The snow there is better than It’s even bigger here, as if all the snow in the world comes from there. It’s a natural barrier that blocks everything trying to reach Bei Aozhou from the North Pole, including us.”
Hearing this, Yousu Pintang's movements froze, and the old man's last words made him feel like an electric current flashed through his mind.
This clan leader is indeed no ordinary person. He knows that there is no aphrodisiac stone on the Arctic coastline!
"But how can I trust you to lead me through that blizzard you mentioned?"
"Master Immortal can only trust us, right? Otherwise, if you want to leave here, you will have to go back the same way."
Back the way you came?
You Su put down the bowl completely, and the old man easily saw through his previous excuse for getting here by mistake. According to the saying that no one can easily walk through that layer of snowstorm, it seems that the old man has determined that he came from the sea.
No one would believe such horrifying things. The only thing that could travel safely on the sea was the Shenhan boat, but the Shenhan boat would not go to this far north. I'm afraid that in the eyes of the old man, he is no different from a monster. It's no wonder that he has such reverence for himself. They call the evil devil a god, and he is also a god in their eyes.
"Tell me why you were exiled here." You Su stood up and patted the snow on his butt, "You don't have to kneel to me, I'm not a god."
"We stole the aphrodisiac stone."
The old man's words shocked You Su's heart.
"Thousands of years ago, the never-ending blizzard did not exist, so the ancestors placed the aphrodisiac stone on the shore. But as time goes by, it becomes more and more difficult for people to penetrate deep into the Arctic snowfield, as if this piece of The land resists people.
We were once a small and unknown sect. For generations, we studied the art of traveling through wind and snow. However, the snowfield was blocked, but the resources inside were cherished by people. So the knowledge passed down from our ancestors finally came into use. We became the dedicated cooks for those big shots and began to carry the treasures deep in the snowfield for them. We were making a lot of money until we were commissioned and asked to move the aphrodisiac stone.
We didn't dare, so they personally gave us a test. Even evil spirits couldn't penetrate that layer of snowstorm. So with this natural barrier, those precious divine stones are redundant. The Divine Power Stone is an absolutely rare treasure, and it has always been controlled by the Holy Mountain. Anyone who dares to move the Divine Power Stone will be a serious crime that will implicate the nine tribes. But they promised us great benefits, and the aphrodisiac stone on this shore had long been forgotten. We still swayed under temptation and persuasion.
But we regretted it. When we were about to walk out of the blizzard, we saw the evil spirit they used for testing. It never entered the snowstorm at all. The test was fake. We wanted to send the aphrodisiac back, but it was too late. They took away the Divine Stone and then deprived us all of our cultivation. We tried our best, but we could only run into the blizzard to save our lives... This protection lasted for thirty years..."
The old man tearfully recounted how he and his tribe had ended up here, but You Su couldn't feel much sympathy.
"How do you want me to help you?"
"I know where they hid the aphrodisiac!"
