Chapter 421: The Extremes of Things Must Be Opposed
"Old man, I see that you are also an honest person, how can you do such a thing!" Ten zhang away, Nie Chen opened his mouth with a huff, his face was very ugly.
The boss smiled bitterly: "What I did was right, didn't this all be done according to your requirements." ”
"You don't lie to me! I want a fragrant ball, why do you give me a stinky ball!" Nie Chen gritted his teeth, glaring, and his face was very unkind.
The moment he opened the wooden box, Nie Chen was almost stunned by the foul smell. The smell is like a dog day in the open field, with a pungent stench and a nausea smell.
The boss laughed, stretched out his hand and took out the small ball in the wooden box, and shook it towards Nie Chen: "This thing is the incense ball." ”
"You don't want to lie to me, it's stinky or fragrant, you think I can't tell the difference!" Nie Chen replied hatefully.
The boss shook his head, took a handkerchief from his bosom, and rubbed it twice on top of the ball. Then he closed the wooden box, stepped forward, and handed the handkerchief to Nie Chen.
"Ask about the taste. ”
Nie Chen was skeptical, but he still took the handkerchief, put it in front of his nose, and carefully inhaled.
Suddenly, a refreshing fragrance entered Nie Chen's nose. Nie Chen's spirits perked up, as if at this moment, he had entered the garden where osmanthus flowers were in full bloom. In front of and behind him, there is the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, giving people a feeling of being in a fairyland on earth and coming to a paradise.
"How can this be?" After a long time, Nie Chen came back to his senses and asked the boss.
"This little ball is the incense ball you want. Everything in the world, things must be reversed, because the fragrance of this incense ball is too strong, after exceeding a certain limit, it will automatically become a stink. To restore the original smell, simply dilute it.
That's why I asked you earlier whose idea it was to take with you. Because of this thing, ordinary people smell foul, and if a woman carries it with her, I'm afraid no one will dare to approach it easily. ”
Nie Chen looked depressed: "Even if what you say makes sense, the smell is really unpleasant." Let me keep it with me and not smoke me to death. ”
"That's why I prepared a wooden box for you, and if you usually put the incense ball in the wooden box, you can isolate all the breath. You only need to take a few sips a day to achieve the effect of nourishing the soul. ”
"A few sips? I can't stand the taste. Forget it, I don't want it!" Nie Chen shook his head and turned around to leave.
But before she could take a step, Gu Feng's voice was already ringing in her ears. In the words, there was a bit of helplessness.
"You take the incense ball down first, and when I give you a transformation, this stench will be eliminated. ”
"Is this true?" Nie Chen asked.
"Seriously!"
"Okay then!" After getting Gu Feng's assurance, Nie Chen turned around and took the wooden box again. But this time, she won't open it easily. Instead, it was directly included in the cave heaven and handed over to Gu Feng to deal with on his behalf.
When the goal was achieved, Nie Chen did not delay any longer, said goodbye to the boss, and then left the town.
Not long after Nie Chen left, a figure appeared in the town. The spiritual sense spread out, and when he saw that there was no one he was looking for, his face showed a look of disappointment.
Leaving the town, Nie Chen galloped all the way, and soon left thousands of miles away. When he got here, Nie Chen breathed a sigh of relief and glanced behind him.
"Gu Feng, are you sure your feeling is right, that right protector has caught up?"
"I've been with them for a long time, and I'm so familiar with their breath that I can't admit it. Gu Feng responded.
"They are really ghostly!" Nie Chen frowned, feeling a little annoyed in his heart. That kind of existence is no longer something that I can resist, and it seems that in the future, I will enter a state of escape again.
The secret land that Gu Feng said was an extremely distant place, a city of ice and snow that was frozen all year round. It took Nie Chen nearly a month to arrive at this place.
This city of ice and snow has long been devoid of life, and there is a dead silence as far as the eye can see, and there is nothing but ice and snow. However, judging from the scale of this city, it should have been very prosperous back then, but for some unknown reason, it became what it is now.
"The ice fountain is right in the middle of the city. There aren't many dangers here, and you can safely enter it. Gu Feng said.
Nie Chen nodded, jumped in, and soon found the ice spring that Gu Feng said. It was a clear spring more than ten meters square, emitting a pale white mist, and during the period, clear water continued to flow out into a small stream in the city.
This is also the only place in the entire Ice and Snow City that is not frozen.
"This is the Ice Spring, doesn't it look like there's anything special?" Nie Chen was a little unimpressed.
"This is just the appearance, what I call the ice fountain is actually the part under the water. Where the temperature is extremely low, under the heavenly immortals, you will die if you touch it. ”
"Ahh
"You're different. Gu Feng explained, "Your body is a golden lotus plant, and it already has a certain ability to withstand low temperatures. Moreover, you have the power of faith of the people of Qianyue Lake, which can also help you resist this extremely cold temperature. ”
"Okay, I'll try. Nie Chen nodded, took a deep breath, and carefully touched the spring water in front of him.
The temperature of the spring water was extremely low, and when Nie Chen touched it, he felt a chill all over his body, and he was almost frozen in an instant. Fortunately, she has a certain degree of resistance to extreme cold, and the power of faith in her body also helps her resist a few points at a critical moment, which keeps her safe and sound.
Nie Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then walked forward and entered the spring directly.
This spring looks small, but the interior space is huge. Nie Chen walked a hundred feet inside, but he didn't see the bottom of the pool. It wasn't until after a stick of incense that Nie Chen saw a bubble-like existence not far away.
This bubble is blocked by a transparent film on the outside, which isolates all the spring water. Inside it is a waterless space, which is a hundred feet in size. In the middle, there is also a black quagmire, about ten zhang in diameter.
"Go inside! That's what you're looking for. Gu Feng said.
Nie Chen nodded, carefully passing through the film and entering the space. Coming to the black mud, Nie Chen glanced at it and couldn't see anything abnormal.
Curious, Nie Chen stretched out his hand and lightly touched the black mud.
This time, Nie Chen let out an exclamation, and subconsciously bounced up and pushed it several feet away.
"This thing will bite!" Nie Chen said tremblingly.
The moment he touched it just now, Nie Chen could clearly feel that a row of teeth was biting on his fingers. After being bitten, Nie Chen could still endure the severe pain, but the strange feeling of being bitten was not something she could accept.
Thinking about it, there would be countless teeth in this black mud, and Nie Chen's heart was filled with a chill.
