153, the legend of the Ice Girl
"Chihuo told me the general situation here, so he specially prepared some extra bubble pills. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Cheng Yi took the lead and seemed to be very familiar with the underwater environment.
Yan Xiao nodded, although he was a little envious and curious about Chihuo, the companion beast that would always reveal secrets to Cheng Yi, he still defended Silver Flame a little in his heart.
"Langji Ice grows underwater?" After a short silence, Ning Yuan asked about the doubts in his and Yan Xiao's hearts.
At this point, Silver Flame really hasn't explained to Yan Xiao. Yan Xiaoben didn't think there was anything wrong, because she didn't know that this was an empty ice field at all.
If Cheng Yi hadn't come to help her and told her that she needed to go into the water, she would have to study on this ice field for a long time to come up with such a method.
And if it weren't for the blue "bubble pill" brought by Cheng Yi, she and Ning Yuan would not have been able to walk underwater so freely.
However, Silver Flame's demeanor when she asked her to come to get Lang Ji Ice was very normal, and when Yan Xiao recalled it at this time, there was an illusion that Silver Flame seemed to think that this was completely a matter of hand-to-hand capture.
Could it be that the reason why Silver Flame didn't tell her the details of this place or leave a message for her was actually because he had expected Cheng Yi to appear here?
Cheng Yi said that he would come to help Yan Xiao, which was the meaning of Chihuo. If this is the case, does it also indirectly show that there is a connection between the red fire and the silver flame?
It's just that Yinyan is still far from being sober, and Yan Xiao has no way to ask at all, so he can only secretly speculate about all kinds of possibilities.
"Langji Ice does not grow underwater, so to speak, this waterway is just a passage to the place where Langji Ice grows." Cheng Yi explained Ning Yuan's question.
"I'm sure you've all heard the story about Lang Ji Bing, right?" Cheng Yi saw Ning Yuan and Yan Xiao nodding silently, and then asked his own question.
Yan Xiao smiled and nodded, "This is natural." "Langji Ice is not a famous spirit plant in the Tianyuan Continent, and there are actually not many people who know about it. But since Silver Flame asked her to find Lang Ji Bing, and this thing is related to her life and death, and it is also related to whether Mu Lin can continue to cultivate, she is naturally sloppy.
Before leaving the mountain, she and Ning Yuan went to the Yaoguang Sect's Scripture Pavilion and read all the descriptions of Langji Ice in it.
It turns out that this Langji Ice is not a spiritual plant cultivated by nature, but a strange flower cultivated by the rumored daughter of the Ice River with her own tears tens of thousands of years ago.
Legend has it that this Langyu Ice is used to commemorate a love affair that the Ice Girl once loved.
Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the Ice Maiden has long since ascended to the spirit realm through the Ascension Immortal Terrace, but the Langji Ice cultivated with her tears is still growing in the depths of the ice fields in the extreme north of the Tianyuan Continent, and the guardian beast left by the Ice Maiden, the Snow Ice Wolf, is guarded in place, blooming once in a thousand years.
"Yes, this ice girl is said to be the proud girl of the sky who caused a sensation in the entire human world back then, what kind of good things can't be obtained, but she can't get the love she wants." Yan Xiao let out a soft sigh while exchanging his understanding of Lang Ji Bing with Cheng Yi.
To tell the truth, I'm afraid there was no female cultivator who didn't envy the Ice Girl back then, and from the moment she was born, the Ice Girl had enviable talents, a unique environment, and inexhaustible resources......
I'm afraid all this will drive every monk crazy.
It's just that the Ice Girl doesn't seem to be having a good time, and her relationship seems to be very unfortunate. It's just that these unfortunate pasts seem to have been deliberately erased, and there are no books and historical materials that describe the Ice Girl's unusually tragic love affair.
The only thing that hasn't been erased is Langji Bing, a strange flower cultivated with the tears of the Ice Girl after falling out of love.
There are so many tears that can cultivate a flower, Yan Xiao is a little unimaginable.
Everyone in the world thinks that Lang Ji Ice does not exist in this world. If it weren't for Yinyan's serious request for Yan Xiao to find it, I'm afraid that if Yan Xiao saw the story of the Ice Girl, he would also think that Lang Ji Bing was just the crystallization of the tragic love story of the Ice Girl made up by later generations.
"It is said that the Ice Girl also hates all the male cultivators in the world because of this." Cheng Yi nodded in agreement as he said what he knew.
This is what Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan did not find in the Yaoguang Sect's Hidden Scripture Pavilion, and the two of them looked at each other while speculating in their hearts about the weight of this information.
"I'm afraid you don't know much about what we might encounter when we find the entrance, this is probably the only pure land of the Ice Maiden when she was in the human realm, and almost never let anyone know about it. It wasn't until she ascended that she passed some information to the Heavenly Mandate Sect, just to let the supreme treasure she could leave in the human world be inherited. ”
Cheng Yi's words were unreserved. In fact, Yan Xiao didn't know that the reason why Cheng Yi knew the Ice Girl more thoroughly than the two of them was because of a secret book that he had selected in the Treasure Pavilion of the Heavenly Mandate Sect.
Coincidentally, the original owner of that cheat book was the Ice Girl.
"The only pure land left by the Ice Girl in the human world doesn't sound simple." Yan Xiao listened to Cheng Yi's words, and his heart, which was still a little relaxed, suddenly froze, and then he began to face the next journey.
The Ice Girl's majesty back then, she and Ning Yuanke both had some insight in the Scripture Pavilion.
At that time, there was nothing to do with the current five major factions in the Tianyuan Continent, and it could be said that the Heavenly Mandate Sect was the dominant family. And the rest are just scattered forces.
The entire Heavenly Mandate Sect is an unrivaled existence on the Tianyuan Continent, and there is no force that can compete with it.
Only the existence of the Ice Maiden is a headache for the Supreme Elders of the Heavenly Mandate Sect. Even the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Mandate Sect would give the Ice Girl a bit of face.
Other small forces didn't dare to offend the Ice Girl. There used to be an itchy force, and it is said that he looked down on the female cultivator very much, and even humiliated the ice girl.
At first, nothing happened, and I didn't see any response from the Ice Girl. The small force was still scolded, and they looked down on the nuns more and more, and finally annoyed the Ice Girl after a large-scale sale of the nuns as furnaces. Overnight, that small force disappeared in the Tianyuan Continent.
Since then, no one dares to look for the ice girl's bad luck anymore. And the prejudice against female cultivators on the Tianyuan Continent gradually disappeared in this way.
This is also the continent that the Tianyuan Continent is not very strong overall, but it is the continent that female cultivators yearn for the most on several major roads in the entire human world.
Now, the only piece of pure land left by such a character who was windy and rainy on the Tianyuan Continent before he ascended, I am afraid it is really not an easy place to break into.
"After the Ice Girl ascended, some people heard rumors and came to look for Langji Bing." Cheng Yi continued: "Most of the female cultivators went back unscathed, but after they went back, they didn't remember what happened before, and they just insisted that Lang Ji Bing only existed in rumors. And the male nun ......"
Cheng Yi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and sighed: "Most of them have gone and have not returned." ”
As soon as Cheng Yi's words came out, Yan Xiao looked at him with some surprise: "In that case, then why did you come to help me?" ”
Obviously, Yan Xiao thinks that this rumor doesn't make sense, if the male cultivator really goes and has no return, how can Cheng Yi come to die by himself? If it was true, wouldn't Ning Yuan be with her, wouldn't he also die?
Cheng Yi smiled lightly, "Yan Daoyou didn't notice, did I just use most of it?" ”
"That is, there are exceptions?" Yan Xiao raised her eyebrows, seeing the fearless expression on Cheng Yi's face, she seemed to have a guess about this exception.
"That's nature." Cheng Yi nodded very dryly, "Do you remember what I said earlier that the Ice Maiden once passed some information here to the Heavenly Mandate Sect before she ascended?" ”
Yan Xiao nodded, this is what Cheng Yi just said, she naturally remembers, and her guess also fell on this point. "Is everything here preferential to the people of the Heavenly Mandate Sect?"
Cheng Yi nodded, "Yes, the male cultivators who were able to go back alive back then were all from the Heavenly Mandate Sect. This is the Ice Maiden's preferential treatment to the Heavenly Mandate Sect. ”
Hearing this, Yan Xiao glanced at Cheng Yi and asked lightly, "In other words, even if we fail in the end, I, as a female cultivator, and you, as one of the descendants of the Heavenly Mandate Sect, can leave alive?" ”
Cheng Yi nodded again.
Yan Xiao was silent for a moment, then turned his gaze to Ning Yuan, but what he said was asking Cheng Yi. "Then my brother......"
Cheng Yi shook his head, "If it weren't for special circumstances, he wouldn't have been able to get out alive." Yan Xiao had already turned his head at this time and looked at Cheng Yi's facial expression carefully, wanting to confirm whether what he said was true or false.
It's a pity that she saw the frankness from Cheng Yi's face, Cheng Yi's words are obviously true, and he really has no reason to cheat at present.
Indeed, if Ning Yuan wants to get out of here alive, he needs some kind of special circumstances, such as ...... There is a beloved Taoist couple.
It's just that Cheng Yi didn't say anything about this special situation, in the final analysis, he is still selfish.
And after Yan Xiao confirmed with Cheng Yi, he was reluctant to move forward. She stopped and held Ning Yuan back. When Cheng Yi saw this, he naturally stopped.
"You go back first." Yan Xiao did not call Ning Yuan "Senior Brother" this time, nor did he mean to discuss with Ning Yuan, but directly put forward this undeniable request in a stated tone.
Ning Yuan's complexion did not change at all, he just glanced at Yan Xiao lightly, and then shook his head quietly.
"With Cheng Yi following me, even if I don't get Langji Ice, I won't die, it's a big deal to come again. But you're different, you don't have to take risks. You don't need to use Langji ice urgently, and you're not predestined, so you don't need to joke with your life about it. Yan Xiao's words hit the nail on the head, making people have no room for refutation.
Ning Yuan naturally knew that Yan Xiao's words were right. He had no reason to joke with his life about it. The only thing that is there is is that Yan Xiao is his junior sister, and he doesn't worry about her.
But this reason pales in comparison, especially in the face of established death.
It's just that Ning Yuan always has a hunch in his heart that if he turns around and leaves here now, when they meet again, maybe everything will be different.
He knew that Yan Xiao was worried about him now, which made the expression on his face not stiff, but the premonition was too strong for him to ignore at all.
This was one reason why he shook his head.
There was also a very important reason why he made the move of shaking his head, instead of directly pulling Yan Xiao and turning his head away.
Since entering the water, he followed Cheng Yi to the depths, and the more he walked, the stronger the familiar feeling in his body became.
This strong sense of familiarity made him deeply attracted and wanted to continue to move forward and explore this familiarity.
This familiarity gave him the feeling that he was back in his mother's arms. He couldn't help but want to explore more.
The familiarity he felt from this familiarity was unmistakable, and he couldn't feel a mortal threat here. On the contrary, there was a voice in his heart, urging him to keep moving forward.
It is difficult for Ning Yuan to describe where and why this familiarity comes from, and what it is. But he felt that his hunch would not be wrong, and that this place might indeed be calling him.
He's not the kind of person who would joke with his life. If he really felt the threat here, the choice he would make was to just pull Yan Xiao and turn his head and leave, no amount of Lang Ji Bing could stop him from leaving with Yan Xiao.
It's just that the familiarity has soothed this impulse again and again, and persuaded him to stay again and again.
Yan Xiao could clearly see the resolute expression that could not be refused from Ning Yuan's eyes that looked at her.
Although Yan Xiao was a little surprised by Ning Yuan's choice, in Ning Yuan's eyes, she still found the emotion that reassured her.
After unsuccessful persuasion, Yan Xiao suddenly felt that Ning Yuan must have his own reasons if he wanted to stay, and he was not a person who spared his life.
After recognizing this, Yan Xiao no longer asked Ning Yuan to go back now, and only said, "Since that's the case, let's continue together." But you promised me to leave as soon as I noticed something was wrong. ”
Ning Yuan has his own persistence, and Yan Xiao naturally has it. Since she decided that Ning Yuan had a reason to stay, she had only one request, and that was to protect herself.
She didn't want the two of them to leave the mountain together, and she was the only one left to go back.
Ning Yuan hooked the corners of his lips slightly and nodded obediently.
This made Cheng Yi, who was watching the two of them on the side, feel slightly surprised.
He didn't expect that Ning Yuan would insist on going after learning that the male cultivator of the Non-Heavenly Mandate Sect had gone and had no return. He didn't expect that Yan Xiao, who had an extraordinary relationship between his senior brother and sister, would agree to let Ning Yuan go with him when he learned that Ning Yuan's companion might die.
It's just that the two of them didn't say much with a tacit understanding, but turned around and asked him to continue to lead the way, and he had no reason to ask more, so he had to hold the doubts and continue to move forward with the two.
It's just that in his previous plan, he never included Ning Yuan, a factor that suddenly came out. So Cheng Yi, who has always been calm, also feels a little headache this time. (To be continued.) )
