Chapter 6: Snowy Night

A little cold snowflake fell on Xue Yue's face, slowly melting and the water evaporated. The breeze blew the white hair of the snow moon mark, and the silver threads fluttered in the wind. Suddenly, Snow Moon Scar spoke:

"I guess I'm about to arrive in the imperial capital. It's finally coming out. ”

Hailan and Hai Rou stared at Xue Yueji tightly with murderous eyes at the same time, and Hailan gritted her teeth and asked:

"What do you mean by that?"

Xue Yueji lazily snapped his fingers and said:

"Since leaving the old man's fiefdom, even if he entered the forests and mountains full of demonic beasts, he has not stopped the people who came to send him to death, and he has to kill at least two hundred of them every day, and there is no threat at all. Except for a junior thorn saint who came half a month ago and still looked sour, there has never been a decent character. Are you two princesses only worth these wastes? Starting tomorrow, each of you two will bring me a sign saying that no one above the Holy Throne is allowed to come and kidnap you. I'm not interested in killing all this waste. ”

Hailan and Hai Rou were deflated all of a sudden, needless to say, they also knew that someone must have come to kidnap them just now, but they were silently solved by Xue Yueji. For more than two months, they had become accustomed to the silent way of dealing with those who came to kidnap them, and most of these people were great swordsmen, and the others were also quasi-saint figures such as swordsmen and magicians. If it were in the past, without the protection of a squadron's secret guards, it would be impossible for them to reach their current position safely, but now Xue Yueji actually doesn't take these masters seriously. Hailan muttered quietly:

"You think the Holy Rank Master is so easy to encounter. ”

Xue Yueji's brows moved slightly, and Yun Na, who was sitting in front of him, turned her head and reminded in a low voice:

"Wood, there really aren't many masters of the Holy Throne. Take the Celestial Dragon Empire, for example. Now there are only nineteen known saint masters in the Heavenly Dragon Empire, among which only Grand Duke Belon is a high-level sword saint, and most of the others are hovering in the junior saint position, and there are even very few intermediate saint positions. The Celestial Dragon Empire is still one of the three great powers on this continent! There are many small countries, not to mention a saint master, not even a quasi-saint master such as a sword master or magician. So it's good to meet a Thorn Saint. ”

Xue Yueji said with some doubts:

"Have they all fallen to this point? There are not as many saint masters in such a big empire as there are no masters of the Holy Rank under my master alone? Unlikely, no matter how hard the battle of the gods is, it will not fall to this point. ”

Yun Na turned around and asked:

"Is there really a lot of your master's subordinates who have reached the Jindan realm?"

Xue Yueji was stunned and said:

"It's not a lot, my master has two marquis, five marquis, eleven chiefs, and nineteen chariot chiefs. There are a total of thirty-seven masters of the Jindan realm, two Chehou and five Neihou are all masters of the same level as my master. Although there are not very few masters of the Jindan realm under the command of my master, it is only about one-thirtieth of the Jindan masters of the Qin State at that time. The area of the Celestial Dragon Empire was much larger than that of the Qin State, and the population was much larger than that of the Qin State. Although their cultivation methods belong to the kind that are easy to learn and difficult to master, how can they only have such a small number of Saint Rank masters with such a large population base?"

Yun Na stared at Xue Yueji's eyes tightly and said very seriously:

"Are you sure that there were more than a hundred masters of the Jindan realm in the Qin State at that time?"

Xue Yueji nodded and said:

"At that time, it was normal for the masters of the Jindan realm to go into battle to kill the enemy, so everyone knew how many masters in various countries there were, except for a few hidden masters, most of them were active on the battlefield or in the government and the opposition. ”

Yun Na didn't say anything, turned around and looked at the snowflakes flying all over the sky, a look of melancholy appeared in the corners of her eyes, and after a long time, Yun Na said:

"Wood, do you know? The land of China is no longer as full of masters as it was more than 2,000 years ago, just take the national security team as an example, we only have eight masters of the Jindan realm there, and you have seen their strength. If it is said that this place has fallen to the current state is already miserable, then the masters in the land of China are now rare. ”

Xue Yueji raised her hand and flicked it on Yun Na's forehead, and said with a smile:

Do you think there are really so few masters in the land of China? There are still many things in the land of China, as if you have not discovered and cannot easily find them. Let me ask you, there is a mountain in the far west called Buzhou, which is said to be one of the rootless Optimus Primes, have you found it there now?"

Yun Na shook her head, and Xue Yueji continued:

"There is a peak named Zhurong in Nanyue Hengshan, and there is a temple named Zhurong. Did you find out there?"

Yun Na shook her head again, and Xue Yueji said with a smile:

"If you haven't even found Zhu Rongfeng in Zhou Mountain, how can you find those masters? Don't you hear that the little is hidden in the wilderness, the middle is hidden in the city, and the big is hidden in the court? Those masters who have formed the Great Dao Jindan if there is no accident, even if they do not break through, they can still live with the heaven and earth, and shine with the sun and the moon, even if they stand in front of you, can you find them? The masters who have formed the Great Dao Jindan are not like the old man, they have to worry about the end of their lives, they have already surpassed the scope of people. ”

Yun Na stared at Xue Yueji with some disbelief, but then Hailan said:

"I said you two are going to kiss me, when am I? It's dark now! It's still snowing! If you don't hurry up and find a place to camp, we're going to freeze tonight!"

Yun Na's face flushed, but she recovered immediately, turning her head to glare at Hailan. For more than two months, Hailan has taken advantage of Yunna in this regard. Yun Na also once asked Xue Yueji to get her a mount, but the demonic beasts she encountered that could do chess were either too low in level, and she couldn't walk when she saw the white tiger, or it was too ugly, so Yun Na had no choice but to continue to ride the white tiger with Xue Yueji, and continue to be taken advantage of by Hailan. Xue Yueji said lightly:

"Ignore her, if she's willing to spend the night surrounded by a circle of corpses, then let her stay here and camp by herself. At the current rate, it will take half an hour to get out of the range of the corpses, and it will be good to be patient for a while. ”

Although Xue Yueji's voice was not loud, Hailan and Hai Rou, who were not far away, seemed to hear it clearly. Hyland immediately closed her mouth. She didn't want to spend the night surrounded by corpses. She hadn't experienced how long it was to spend a night among corpses. Attacked for the first time about two months ago when they had just left the territory of the Grand Duke of Peron, Snow Moon Scar camped for the night after eliminating the attackers, their tent even resting next to a pile of corpses. As a result, the three girls didn't dare to fall asleep all night, huddled together and shivered all night.

When Yun Na inadvertently turned around, she saw Xue Yueji, looked at the snowflakes fluttering in the sky, and asked Xue Yueji in a low voice:

"Wood, what are you thinking?"

Xue Yueji thought for a moment and said:

"I'm thinking about the past. This must be the first snow we've had since we arrived. ”

Yun Na recalled for a moment and said:

"I guess so. It's late autumn, so there's nothing out of the ordinary with a little snow. And it's beautiful when it snows. ”

Xue Yueji said lightly:

"In the forty-seventh year of King Zhao, I followed my master to attack the party. It was the winter moon, and I was ordered by my master to lead 8,000 dead soldiers to open the way for the army. At that time, in order to ensure the speed of the march, we only brought ten days' rations and light clothing, and the road was like a bamboo. But I didn't expect God to deliberately embarrass us, and on the fourth day, it suddenly snowed heavily, and caught up with the Zhao army to attack the camp. As a result, my 8,000 dead soldiers actually lost one-third of their lives in front of the 20,000 Zhao troops before rushing out. More than 2,600 warriors died because of my negligence, and they could only be the lonely ghosts. I was ashamed of them, and it was only after that that that I began to familiarize myself with the military books and pay attention to the changes in the heavens. And this beautiful snowflake has become one of the things I hate the most in my heart. ”

There were actually two tears in the corners of Xue Yueji's eyes, Yun Na raised her hand to brush the tears from the corners of Xue Yueji's eyes, but when her hand touched Xue Yueji's face, the bone-chilling chill instantly spread all over her body along her fingertips. The bone-chilling chill seemed to come from the depths of Snow Moon Scar's heart, and Yun Na felt that Snow Moon Scar's frozen heart seemed to be washed open by this snow. But when she wanted to peek into Xue Yueji's heart through the crack, the chill that came out of the gap made her instinctively choose to retreat. She even felt that behind the heart of Snow Moon Scar was not a person's mind at all, but a passage to the cold hell. Anyone who enters that heart will immediately be frozen. Yun Na's hand stiffened at the corner of Xue Yueji's eyes, and she didn't even use her own body to control her domination, just like when she first suffered Xue Yueji's murderous aura.

Hai Rou saw that Yun Na had stiffened and held that action for a long time, and asked Hailan in a curious whisper:

"Sister Hailan, what is Sister Yunna doing? I haven't seen her move for a long time!"

Hailan also noticed Yun Na's abnormality, gave Hai Rou a look, and said loudly to Yun Na:

"Hey, you two! It's about the same! You two have been doing this for a long time!"

But this time Hailan miscalculated, Yun Na didn't turn to glare at her as usual, and she didn't change her movements. Hailan had a bad premonition in her heart, urging her Lan Ling unicorn to want Yun Na and Xue Yueji to get closer, but her Lan Ling unicorn actually didn't obey her drive, and refused to get closer to Xue Yueji and Yun Na. Hailan became more and more strange and said to Hai Rou:

"Rou'er, go and see what is going on with them, this beast doesn't know what's wrong today, and it's actually disobedient. ”

Hai Rou nodded, urging her Lan Ling unicorn to lean in the direction of Yun Na of Snow Moon Scar, but her Lan Ling unicorn was even worse than Hai Lan's Lan Ling unicorn, and she actually ran several steps in the opposite direction. Hai Rou innocently hugged the neck of the Lan Ling unicorn and said:

"Good baby. Go to Sister Yunna. ”

Hai Rou's Lan Ling unicorn hissed in fear, its eyes wide in fear, and even its steps became chaotic. Hai Rou said to Hailan a little helplessly:

"Sister Hailan, the baby won't go over. ”

Hailan angrily continued to whip her Lan Ling unicorn, but no matter how she drove it, her Lan Ling unicorn just refused to get closer in the direction of Xue Yueji and Yun Na.

Just when Hailan and Hai Rou were in a hurry, Xue Yueji's cold voice came:

"What are you two doing? ”

Only then did Hailan and Hai Rou realize that Xue Yueji had returned to normal, while Yun Na was pale, her lips were blue, and she was trembling and leaning on Xue Yueji's body like a person who had been frozen. Xue Yueji jumped off the white tiger's back with Yun Na in her arms, and after settling Yun Na, she began to collect fuel and light a bonfire, and after arranging Yun Na to the campfire, she began to skillfully set up the tent. Hailan and Hai Rou both gathered around Yun Na and asked this and that with concern, but Yun Na was just shivering constantly, and wanted to speak several times, but her trembling jaw made her unable to say a complete word at all.

After setting up the tent, Snow Moon Scar sat down by the campfire, and then took out a clean deer from the storage bracer and set it up on the campfire. Xue Yueji said lightly while roasting the deer:

"Why are you so troubled? Even my master does not want to peek into my heart, why do you bother to find guilt for yourself. ”

Yun Na stared at the blazing bonfire and trembled and said:

"I, I don't, I don't know. I, I just feel you, your heart, your heart is painful. I, I thought "

Snow Moon Marks Interface says:

"You originally thought that I had comprehended the realm of 'goodness is like water', and my heart should be full of warmth and softness, right?"

Yun Na nodded with difficulty, and Xue Yueji smiled self-deprecatingly and said:

"It's not that you can truly do good like water by understanding the true meaning of 'goodness is like water'. I'm not like you, you're a person with water attributes, and if you comprehend the realm of 'goodness is like water', you'll be completely integrated into it, because you're originally a part of water. I am different, my attribute is the wind, and I have realized that the true meaning of 'good is like water' is just to imitate the realm and effect of 'good as water'. In order for me to fully integrate into the realm of 'good as water', unless I return to chaos and transform my attributes from wind to chaos, then I can fully integrate into the realm of 'good as water'. Moreover, even if I comprehend the realm of 'good as water' and integrate into the realm of 'good as water', then you should have heard of 'freezing three feet is not a day's cold'. Even if it is the true and good 'good like water' in the world, it will take a long time to dissolve the haze in my heart. ”

Yun Na was a little disappointed, looked at the bonfire and didn't say anything, Xue Yueji smiled faintly and said:

"But you've done a good job, and being able to think of controlling the snow to guide me to comprehend the true meaning of 'good as water', and blue suppressing the gloom in my heart shows that you have wandered outside the realm of 'good as water'. It won't be long before you will be able to comprehend the realm of 'good as water'. When the time comes, it may be useful for you to guide me with the realm of 'good as water' and your ability to control water." Although it may take a long time and the chances of success are not great, you can still give it a little try, and you will have nothing to do anyway. ”

Hailan and Hai Rou looked at Xue Yueji curiously and then at Yun Na, Hailan asked Xue Yueji curiously:

"Hey, what are you two talking about? What ice and water, can you say something we can understand?"

Xue Yueji flipped the venison in his hand and said:

"Some words are good as long as the person concerned can understand them, but it is better for outsiders not to understand them, otherwise it will become more troublesome. ”

As he spoke, Xue Yueji casually popped out a few wind blades, made several rows of even incisions on the deer's body, and then began to sprinkle condiments, Hailan stood up angrily and wanted to judge Xue Yueji, but Yun Na, who was shivering on the side, suddenly stretched out her hand that had just recovered a little blood and grabbed her. Hailan turned around and asked Yun Na loudly:

"What the hell is going on with you two? Either you are speaking a language we don't understand, or you're just standing there without moving. We can understand this, you don't speak the lingua franca of the mainland, we have nothing to say when you talk in your language, and the freeze there is also caused by some accident on your part. But I finally said a few words of the continental lingua franca that we could understand, and he said these things that we didn't understand! What the hell is going on with you two?"

Yun Na worked hard for a long time, and finally said two words in the jerky mainland lingua franca:

"He's sad. ”

Hailan and Hai Rou both looked at Yun Na with a look of surprise, and Hai Rou asked Yun Na carefully and innocently:

"Sister Yunna, are you saying he's sad?"

Yun Na nodded slightly, and Hailan said with a look of novelty and disbelief:

"He's going to be sad? Are you kidding? You're saying he's sad? Killing hundreds of masters silently every day, and shouting that he wants to find a master to kill, he's going to be sad? If he's sad, then the sun should rise in the west!"

Yun Na's face turned pale, and she said hard:

"He's a human being, so he's sad when something happens. ”

Just when Hailan was still thinking about what Yun Na's words meant, Xue Yueji walked over with the roasted deer, handed Yun Na a piece of venison casually, and said lightly:

"As you said, I'm sad right now. I'll wronged you today, and I'll eat it yourself. ”

Yun Na nodded and took the venison handed over by Xue Yueji, giving Xue Yueji a reassuring look. Xue Yueji stuffed the remaining venison into Hailan's hands, and sat down against the body of the white tiger, looking up quietly at the snowflakes fluttering in the sky, and fell into memory.
