"I just woke up for a while."
"Brother Chen, I saw you were practicing, so I didn't bother you."
Averting Chen Yulou's increasingly clear eyes, Hua Hua Ling Xiao waved his hand.
I don’t know why.
Obviously the two of them were at least two or three feet apart.
There was an indescribable feeling of depression in her heart.
It was as if there was a demon hidden in his eyes, staring at him.
Exactly.
When she mustered up the courage to raise her head.
I also found that his eyes were calm, like a pool of still water.
"The vigil is boring, so meditate to kill time."
Chen Yulou didn't notice her strangeness and explained casually.
Looking past the figure of Hua Ling.
The night passed.
The whole world turned white.
The camp gradually became alive.
Partridge Whistle, Old Foreigner, Tour and others all emerged from their tents one after another, stretched their waists lazily, and hurried on. The conditions were naturally not as good as when they followed the large army.
Only a thin blanket to keep out the cold.
The Jiazi ditch is filled with gravel.
After sleeping all night, my whole body was sore and extremely uncomfortable.
Hearing the movement behind her, Hua Ling hesitated for a moment, but put away the strange surprise in her heart, "Brother Chen, I'll go back first."
"Okay."
Chen Yulou Nod.
Different from these rough guys.
Hua Ling and Miss Hong are daughters after all. Although they are away from home and cannot be as refined as usual, they still need to do simple grooming.
This is obviously to go back and wash up.
In addition to the other end, the partridge whistle has come this way.
Most likely I have something to ask.
“Brother Chen...”
“Let’s talk while walking.”
Just as Partridge Whistle was about to speak, Chen Yulou pointed to the depths of Jiazi Valley. He was startled for a moment, then understood and nodded simply.
Two people, one on the left and one on the right.
Walking in the snow.
I gradually stopped walking when I reached the edge of the pool. Different from the terrifying scene of blood and water last night, the pool was quiet now. From time to time, a few snowflakes fell to the water, and then disappeared.
It feels quite peaceful and distant.
It's like everything happened last night.
It’s just a dream.
"Brother Chen, the strange phenomenon of dragon veins here is also because of... the Samsara Sect?"
The Partridge Whistle looked at it for a while.
Spit out a breath.
A line of white frost condensed in front of him.
"There is a high probability that you can't be wrong."
As if he had expected what he asked, Chen Yulou just nodded.
“The Samsara Sect behaves very evilly and does not trust Feng Shui. Cutting off the dragon veins is just to create a trap for gathering evil in order to hide.”
“That’s it.”
After listening to this explanation.
The Partridge Whistle finally understood.
After he finished meditating last night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep well all night. As long as he closed his eyes, his mind was subconsciously thinking about the abnormality of the dragon vein here.
After all, this method of changing the situation is not easy to see.
What a pity.
Last night, time was running out, and after Chen Yulou went to the bottom of the pond, he clearly had something on his mind, and it was hard for him to ask further questions.
It took me until now to finally get the answer.
“It’s a pity to throw away the skill of slaying dragons after learning it...”
Hearing his sigh, Chen Yulou finally looked away from the pool and nodded. , "It is indeed a pity."
"With such means, why only stick to these crooked tricks."
You know, Kanyu Feng Shui, Tianxing Earth Vein.
In ancient times, it has been called dragon slaying.
It is said that Liu Ji of the Ming Dynasty, in order to continue the Ming Dynasty for thousands of generations, traveled for several years and cut off ninety-nine dragon veins from south to north.
But there is a gap in every hundred secrets.
He killed ninety-nine earth dragons, but ignored the dragon vein in Changbai Mountain outside the pass.
In the end, the Ming Dynasty was also ended by the Jurchen clan.
This statement is widely circulated among the people.
Chen Yulou has never verified whether it is true or false, but it also shows one thing. For Feng Shui masters, changing wind and water is normal, and dragon veins can also be cut.
About the Reincarnation Sect.
Although he doesn’t know much, there is no one in the world who knows more than he does.
But the people in this sect have never shown the ability to find dragons and point stars.
As if to them.
Looking for the dragon is just a trail.
Concentrate on studying immortality.
However, immortality is not that simple. Throughout the ages, many amazing and talented people have not been able to do this.
If you are not so stubborn, you can study dragon slaying instead.
Maybe you can find a new way to achieve metaphysical enlightenment and achieve great things.
Why should it be like today?
Like the ground rats in the gutter, they hide their heads and tails, remain anonymous, and hide in desolate places all their lives.
“By the way, Brother Chen, what was the forbidden area yesterday?”
Partridge Whistle thought of something again.
Looking around, he suddenly said.
From last night to now, it seems that he has not seen Luofu.
“Don’t worry, I came back last night.”
“It’s just a dead man, he can’t make any trouble in front of Luofu.”
How could Chen Yulou not understand the profound meaning of his words.
The ghost mother of the devil country has turned into evil.
Staying here will only harm the world.
“Huh, that’s good.”
Sure enough, upon hearing his words, Partridge Whistle’s frown suddenly relaxed.
As for the Unbounded Demon Eyes, Chen Yulou did not plan to inform them for the time being.
After all, it involves the snake god already...the real world.
Although Partridge Whistle has stood at the top of the fighting world, it still seems too insignificant in front of such existences.
At least we have to go beyond the foundation building and cultivate the inner elixir.
Just now I had a chance to take a look.
Otherwise, knowing too much will become an inner demon and a stumbling block on the path of spiritual practice.
“Let’s go.”
“It’s been a day and we don’t have much time left.”
Seeing that he was still deep in thought, Chen Yulou greeted him , then turned around and rushed towards the camp.
“Coming.”
Take a deep breath.
Suppress your thoughts.
The partridge whistle quickly caught up.
When the two returned to the camp one after another, Tuer and the others had prepared food.
Beef jerky, cooked butter tea and pancakes.
As for greens.
To the herdsmen under the snow-capped mountains, it is as precious as salt.
Especially after winter, it is even harder to see some vegetables.
Unless you are lucky enough.
In underground caves with hot springs, you can sometimes find some underwater algae or moss, which can be regarded as vegetables.
What's more, I'm away from home right now.
How can there be so much attention to detail.
A simple bite is enough to fill your stomach.
After eating and drinking, Tuer and others fulfilled their agreement and sent them out of the snow mountain pass, which was the most dangerous ridge in the section yesterday.
“Brother Chen, I have heard a saying from you Han people, which is that if you send someone a thousand miles away, there will eventually be a time to say goodbye.”
"If I have a chance to come back in the future, I must be a guest in the village."
Tour and his party stood beside the horse.
Each of them raised their hands to make a farewell gesture.
Although we have only been in contact for a little over a day, this does not affect my reluctance at all.
For them nomads.
Advocate martial arts and be strong. It's something that's almost engraved in my bones.
Everyone said that the Han people were weak, but that definitely did not include the six of them.
They never fell behind along the way. Even when they encountered danger, instead of being afraid, they rushed to the front.
Not to mention bold men like Kunlun, Yang Fang and the old foreigner.
When it comes to drinking, the Kizi people are not inferior to them at all.
Especially Kunlun.
Taxi is a rare person in the village. Taxi means a mountain in the Kizi language, which means it is as tall as a mountain.
And he did.
Tall and tall, as strong as an ox.
But in front of Kunlun, Taxi looked like a child who hadn't grown up yet.
You can imagine how strong the shock was.
It's a pity that for more than a day, I was either rushing or resting. I was in such a hurry that I didn't dare to delay at all, and I didn't have the chance to ask for advice.
“Definitely!”
Feeling their sincerity and straightforwardness.
Chen Yulou arched his hands.
"May Bakshi bless you, have a safe journey, and return home soon!"
Tul nodded.
Then the group got on their horses and without hesitation, they galloped in the direction they came from.
The thunderous sound of horse hooves.
The shock caused snowflakes to fall in the cedar forest.
"We are also setting off."
"Try to camp in East Kunlun before dark."
Watch the group of people getting smaller and smaller.
Until we cross the ridge.
Disappeared into the vast world.
Chen Yulou also greeted.
Soon, a group of people walked in the opposite direction of Tour and others, passing through the dense fir forest and walking among the vast white snow-capped mountains.
……
In a blink of an eye.
It's getting dark.
A glacier looks like a knife-cut cliff. The last light of the sky pours down on the top of the glacier, and countless golden halos appear faintly.
Like the legendary Buddha's light.
This is the middle section of Kunlun Mountains.
It is also the intersection of Xinjiang, Tibet and Qinghai provinces.
In addition to the vast stretches of uninhabited Gobi, there are numerous icebergs and snow peaks. From a distance, the glaciers take on various shapes, like conchs floating in the sea.
In addition, there is a large natural rift valley under the glacier.
So, this place is also called Shenluogou by the locals.
A little carelessness.
You will fall into it.
Neither humans nor mules, horses, or yaks can gain a foothold in it.
It is estimated that only Snow Eagle can fly over.
For the surrounding herdsmen, Shenluogou is a place where gods, Buddhas and demons live. Mortals are not even qualified to pry.
From ancient times to the present.
There are very few people who dare to enter Shenluogou.
Even if they go, only a handful of people will survive.
But today...
Under the dim skylight.
A horse team followed the mountainside and continued deep into the Shenluogou Glacier.
"Manager Chen, there is no way to go forward. Even if you shoe the horse, the horse will not be able to stand firm."
Yang Fang and Kunlun, who were responsible for opening the road, finally returned from the ridge high on the cliff.
The two of them have experienced numerous dangers.
At this moment, there was a hint of lingering fear on his face.
Stepping on a small space, the cold wind is whistling outside, and the glacier cliff is in front of you. If you are not careful, you will fall into it.
That feeling was even more terrifying than walking down the ancient plank road to the ghost cave that day.
The ghost cave has never seen the light of day, and nothing can be seen.
The light can only illuminate one or two meters in front of you.
Visibility is poor.
Fear comes more from the unknown.
But the horror of Shenluogou cannot be described in words at all. The cold wind made the robes on his body rustle, as if a pair of invisible hands were pushing desperately behind his back.
Use a little more force.
There will be large cracks in the glacier at your feet.
It seems as if it will collapse in the next moment.
Man is like a rootless tree with no place to draw strength or even hide.
“It’s getting dark soon.”
"Then find a place to camp first."
Chen Yulou nodded.
They set out from Jiazigou and ran for a whole day, one person and two horses, almost without sleep. Even replenishing food and water was done on horseback.
Even a tough guy can’t hold on at this moment.
Besides, we have already arrived at Shenluogou Glacier, so even if the journey becomes more difficult, it is no longer a problem.
That's right.
The former capital of the Snow Demon Kingdom was built here.
However, thousands of years have passed, and the ancient capital has been buried in countless avalanches.
Eluohai City is now located deep underground.
Nothing but a shadow.
It's like those craftsmen who walk around the streets and come up with the means of projecting on the wall.
"That's right, shopkeeper, I'll look for him."
Kunlun immediately asked for help.
But before he finished speaking, he saw Chen Yulou standing right away and shook his head.
“No need.”
"Going around the glacier in front, there is an uninhabited valley. The terrain is fairly flat, just suitable for camping."
"Huh?"
Kunlun seemed to have guessed something, and just nodded. , but Yang Fang looked confused and subconsciously looked back behind him, but his sight was completely blocked by the mountains.
"Shopkeeper Chen, have you been here before?"
"This is the first time."
"Then how do you know...Oh no, Luofu!"
Yang Fang still wanted to ask, but as he spoke, a sudden flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and a phoenix shadow appeared in his mind.
Although I haven’t seen its shadow in the past two days.
But Yang Fang knew that Luofu had definitely been hovering high in the sky where he could not see it.
Seeing that he had reacted, Chen Yulou smiled faintly and without delay, pulled the reins, bypassed the group of people, and ran deeper into Shenluogou.
Not long after.
Wait until they arrive in the valley.
I saw that it was surrounded by several snow peaks, which was just right to avoid the cold wind. There was even a river formed by melted glacier water that meandered through it.
Except.
What surprised a few people.
Although they were located in a snowy valley in the freezing winter, they actually found a hot spring in the woods inside the valley.
White mist rises on the water.
No sign of freezing at all.
Hua Ling and Miss Hong were the most excited. They couldn't remember how long it had been since they took a hot bath.
The two subconsciously bent down to test the temperature of the water.
If someone wasn't there.
Maybe they can’t wait to get into the water.
But the Partridge Whistle who came with him looked obviously further away, with surprise in his eyes.
"Snow Mountain... Earth Dragon?"
Fire and water are incompatible.
This has almost become common sense.
How could there be a fire dragon in such a place where glaciers lay across it? This simply overturned all their previous perceptions.
Not only him, but also Chen Yulou looked surprised.
Because he couldn't remember at all, where did the volcano come from on the boundary of Kunlun Temple?
Although there are indeed active volcanoes on the Kunlun Mountains, if I remember correctly, the closest one to here is hundreds of miles away.
The terrain of dragon veins can be changed.
But how to transport the fire dragon?
“Don’t rush into the water yet.”
Chen Yulou showed contemplation on his face, looking at the hot springs that were constantly splashing under the night, and waved his hand to the flower spirit who was playing in the water. Call Miss Hong back.
“Set up camp first and prepare dinner.”
"I'll go down and take a look." (End of Chapter)
