"Ahem, ah! It hurts! Hey, what are you doing! The woman who was being dragged by the boy woke up, "Hey, let go, I can run by myself, and if I pull my arm again, I'll be broken!" ”

"You've woken up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" the boy said, stopped, and let go of his hand. Then he looked at the woman who was getting up and shaking her arms and said, "Run!" There may be a whole bunch of ice demons converging in that direction right now. ”

After speaking, the boy continued to run forward.

"Oops! Wait for me! The woman said anxiously, then quickly chased after her, and asked, "Hey, little brother, how did you escape from that ice demon with me?" ”

"The Ice Demon has been killed. Don't ask, you might as well use it to run away if you have that strength. The boy replied.

"Dead? That's right, otherwise we wouldn't be able to escape! The woman said with the same expression.

"That's right!" The boy suddenly said, "Where is the village where you live?" Let's go straight to it! ”

"Huh? Isn't that going to lure all the ice demons over? The woman asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, we haven't been discovered by the Ice Demon since we started escaping, so we won't lure the Ice Demon to your village. Besides, if we were discovered by the Ice Demon, would we still be able to run away so safely! The boy said a little speechlessly.

"Oh, that's good, then I'll lead the way." After saying that, the woman made a sense of direction, then suddenly turned around and continued to run. When the boy saw that the woman had changed direction, he ran after her.

In this way, under the leadership of the woman, the two ran for more than ten minutes, and then the woman stopped.

"Have you arrived?" The boy asked.

"Whew, whew, no...... Yes, huh...... I...... I can't run! The woman said breathlessly.

"Then I'll carry you and run! Let's hurry! The boy said dryly.

The woman nodded, and the boy picked her up and continued in the direction she had said.

…………

The night passed quickly, and the boy, guided by the woman, found the village where the woman lived.

The boy was standing at the gate of the village, when the snow stopped, and the woman got off the boy's back and stood beside him.

"Is this it? It's so silent! The boy said as he wiped the sweat from his face.

"It's here, this, what's going on, why is the village so quiet, even if the villagers are sleeping, but why don't those animals make a sound? How...... Finish! Speaking of the back, the woman's voice was already shaking, because she thought of some kind of bad outcome.

At this time, the boy on the side saw the woman's appearance, and also guessed some reasons, he condensed an ice plate, and then poked it on the ground and pushed it hard, clearing a clearing without snow.

Both of them took a closer look at the cleared lot, and found some blood stains on it. Seeing this, the boy pushed the ice plate far away, and the area of the clearing immediately increased, and the two of them found more blood.

There were drops on the ground, there were blood stains left by the corpses dragged across the ground, and even one or two broken fingers on the ground.

One of them also wore a green ring on his finger, and when the woman saw it, she couldn't help but cry bitterly. She trembled and picked up the finger with the ring, "Mother! My mother! ”

…………

…………

The wind was blowing, and in the village where the woman lived, the boy was walking on his back, and the woman had fainted by this time, because she had not eaten for a long time, and because of tiredness and pain.

The boy looked at the more or less damaged houses, and his heart felt a sense of gloom.

"Life is so fragile!" The boy thought to himself.

"Huh? What is that? Suddenly, the boy saw a ruined round object on the side of the road, and when he looked closer, he saw that it was a dry well. It's just strange that the well itself is very old, but the rockers, ropes, and barrels used to draw water on the well are new.

The boy looked at the well again, and he looked at the dry soil at the bottom of the well, and said to himself, that it must have been dry for a long time, so why are the crank and the rope all new? Could it be that this well was not used to draw water, but to serve as a channel? And these new water tools are just used as a tool to transport people? If this is the case, wouldn't there be a secret passage under this well that leads to a secret room that ordinary people don't know!

"Alas! Luo Pingfan, Luo Pingfan, you are so smart, you can think of such a complicated thing, haha! The boy whispered to himself with some excitement. Eh, now that I've cracked the big secret hidden in this dry well, shouldn't I go down and take a look first? But ......"

"No, let's send this woman back to their house first!" The boy hesitated for a long time before deciding that he should give it away first.

So, the boy carried the woman on his back and walked on.

This time, however, the boy did not go far before he stopped, for he saw a house that was relatively well preserved.

The boy looked closely, and saw that the house resembled what the woman on his back had described as hers, and he wanted to go in and see it.

So, with a "squeak", the door opened, and the boy walked in. The first thing that catches your eye is a wooden table with unfinished meals on it and two neatly arranged stools next to it.

The boy looked to the side again, and saw that there was a stove not too far from the table, and there was a large vat on one side of the stove, and then there was a door on the wall against the stove.

The boy stared at the door for a moment, then walked over and pushed it open, and walked inside.

When he entered, the boy saw a large wooden cabinet and an earthen kang in the house, and the boy put the woman on the earthen kang and walked out.

In a short time the boy made a fire in the yard, and then cut off the two hind legs of the wild dog he had been carrying, and roasted them on the fire.

Suddenly, the boy remembered something and hurriedly ran towards the house.

As soon as he entered the house, the boy looked around carefully, trying to find some salt, but the boy looked for a long time, but he didn't see where the salt was.

The boy walked out helplessly, muttering, "It seems that I can only put nothing and roast dry." ”

…………

…………

"Mother, mother, no!" The woman woke up, she looked around, "Uh, I'm home?" Oh, the boy must have sent me back! By the way, what about others? The woman got down from the kang in confusion, and then walked to the door and opened the door, she looked at the kitchen, and felt so familiar, as if everything had returned to five or six days ago, the difference was that the thing was still there, but the person was gone.

The woman rubbed her eyes, stopped thinking about these sad things, and then opened the door weakly, and saw that the boy was roasting, and walked over.

"You're awake, it's just as the meat is almost roasted, so you just wait." When the boy saw the woman come up and sit down, he said to her.

"Hmm. By the way, can you teach me how to cultivate? The woman asked suddenly.

"Cultivation, this, I'...... I only know that cultivation begins with quenching the body. If you are cultivating, you must start tempering your body first, and after you have tempered your body well, you can find a practice to cultivate. The boy said.

"Tempering the body? Is it just exercise? The woman asked again.

"Yes and no, the tempering I am talking about is not only exercise, but also requires the help of some external forces, and this external force refers to some spiritual grasses, pills and the like. Of course, if you are born to cultivate that piece of material, you don't need external force. The boy said slowly.

"Oh, do you think I need any external force?"

"Well, I can't see that." The boy said, squeezing his shoulders.

"Oh, then if I need external force, what kind of spirit grass do I need to use?"

"Ahh Oh, my God! Are you a hundred thousand whys! So many questions! The last question you asked me, I can only regret to tell you, I don't know. The boy said impatiently.

"Oh, I see." The woman said with some frustration.

"Hey, the meat is ready, na, I'll give you a piece." The boy said, handing the woman a dogleg.

"Thank you...... Thank you. The woman whispered.

"No thanks, I always wanted to ask you before, but you were still asleep at the time, I didn't have a chance to ask you, now, since you are awake, then I will ask you." After the boy finished speaking, he lowered his voice and said, "This, uh, this big sister, you know the dry well in your village! ”

"You know, there's just that well in the village, what's wrong?"

"I'm afraid there is a secret passage in there that leads to other places!" The boy said mysteriously.

"To go elsewhere? Why haven't I heard from the villagers? The woman wondered.

"You don't know? This...... Oops, maybe you're not old enough for adults to tell you! The boy guessed.

"Well, it doesn't seem likely." The woman shook her head.

"Then how could you not know, could it be that I guessed wrong? No, it's a dry well, in addition to this reason, what other circumstances will people replace the rockers and other tools used to draw water on the well? The boy muttered to himself, confused.

After hearing this, the woman's cheeks, which were originally full of negative emotions, suddenly bloomed into a smile. "Poof, it turns out that you are strange about this, I really don't know how your little head grows, and it is so complicated by you. Actually, that dry well was only used for sacrificial wells in our village. ”

"Sacrificial well?" The boy looked at the woman puzzled.

"Yes! You don't know! Alas, then I'll tell you about it! The woman paused when she said this, and then continued: "This sacrificial well is actually a sacrificial activity handed down by our ancestors, don't underestimate it, our entire Baixue County will hold a ceremony to sacrifice the well on the day of February 3rd, and in our Baixue County, regardless of the size of the town or the size of the village, each town or village will only have one well." ”

"And that's why you see that the wells are dry and old, but they are equipped with new tools for drawing water." The woman smiled when she finished speaking, obviously still amused by the boy's thoughts.

"Oh, so that's it, alas, make me happy in vain!" The boy said a little depressed.

"Oh, by the way, did you know that there are naturally occurring dangers around here?" The boy suddenly remembered the most important thing he had to do in this illusory world, and asked.

"Natural danger? This one...... I don't know, but if we go to Smoke and Snow City and ask around, we should be able to find out about the kind of place you mentioned. By the way, I take the liberty of asking you, why have you always wanted to go to Smoke and Snow City? The woman asked.

"It's because I'm going to that natural dangerous place!" The boy replied.

"Oh."

"Originally, I originally wanted to go to that town to avoid the wind and snow, and then find a natural danger by myself, but at that time, I didn't know where to go down from the cliff, so I chose a random direction to see if I could go around, and I ran into you halfway. At the time, I thought it would be impossible to save you, but on second thought, I might as well give it a try, and if I do, I can ask you how to go down. As a result, I saved you, and so many things happened in between, and it wasn't until now that I realized that I remembered to ask you about the natural danger, and if you knew, I wouldn't go to that Snow City. ”

"But you just said it, you don't know, alas, it seems that you still have to go to Smoke and Snow City!"
