Chapter 62
The eldest grandson Jun and Yi Xichen rested for one night, and got up early the next morning, only to tell the innkeeper about the killing of Mo Lingbo by Demon Cultivator last night.
Mo Lingbo's house was made a very mess last night after Mo Lingbo's fiddling, Yue Xiaorou's attack, and the eldest grandson Jun's killing demon, and the innkeeper took a look at the door of the room, and his head suddenly became big.
Yi Xichen said apologetically: "I'm sorry......"
The shopkeeper waved his hand and sighed: "It's strange that I vaguely felt the demonic qi scattering last night...... The Demon Removal Guardian is supposed to be, what are you sorry for. I'll clean it up. ”
The shopkeeper went into the room and cleaned up. Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson Jun were about to leave, but they heard the shopkeeper say, "Huh? It's ......"
The two turned around, only to see the shopkeeper pick up a piece of ice cream from the ground. The climate in this winter and spring town is already cold, so it is normal for the ice flowers to not melt after a night.
Yi Xichen said: "What's wrong?" ”
The shopkeeper said, "This is the ice flower in the northern ice and snow valley." Did the demon cultivator ever go to the Ice and Snow Valley? ”
The two of them hurriedly went into the room again. Yi Xichen asked, "Why do you say that?" ”
The shopkeeper presented them with the ice cream flower: "You see, this ice cream flower is seven-cornered. Only the ice trees in the northern valley bear this hexagonal ice flower. There is no snow in our town, and there are no ice cream flowers like this. ”
The eldest grandson Jun said: "Really? ”
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "Why should I lie to you? The Ice Demon Clan in the Ice Valley is very fierce and does not welcome outsiders, so the monks rarely go there, and they don't know what the demon cultivator is doing there. ”
The eldest grandson Jun and Yi Xichen glanced at each other. If this ice cream flower was really brought from the Ice and Snow Valley, it may not have been Mo Lingbo, but it is also very likely that Yue Xiaorou had been there, and it fell from her when it struck yesterday.
Yi Xichen said: "Ice Demon Clan? Not welcoming outsiders? ”
"yes." The shopkeeper sighed and chatted with them while cleaning up the mess in the house, "Actually, it wasn't like this before. The Ice Demon Clan has lived in the Ice and Snow Valley for two or three hundred years, and there are many ice-attribute immortal materials there, and there have been many monks who have gone there in the past, and they have not violated each other with the Ice Demon Clan, but they are also harmonious. ”
He lifted up the knocked chair: "About ten years ago?" The Ice Demon Clan suddenly became extinct, and everyone thought that they had offended someone and were wiped out. However, in recent years, the Ice Demon Clan has reappeared in the Ice and Snow Valley, and it has become very ferocious, rejecting outsiders, so there are fewer people in the Ice and Snow Valley. ”
Yi Xichen groaned: "There is such a thing......"
smiled, and said: "Thank you shopkeeper, we still have something to do, so let's go first." ”
"Hey, go ahead."
The two walked out of the inn, and Yi Xichen said, "Go to the Ice and Snow Valley." ”
The eldest grandson Jun also means this: "Let's go." ”
It is very likely that the ice cream flower was left by Yue Xiaorou, even if Mo Lingbo had been to the Ice and Snow Valley, but he had been with them the day before, and the ice cream flower on his body should have melted a long time ago. They wanted to find Yue Xiaorou at the moment and there were no clues, so they had to go to the places she had been to, try their luck, and maybe find something.
Out of Dongchun Town, all the way to the north, the snow on the ground is getting thicker and thicker, and there is no man or monster in sight. In the distance, there are mountain peaks on both sides, and the snow valley is flat, with the occasional few raised hills.
There was no snow at this time, but there were many tall ice trees growing on the valley, and ice flowers were falling from time to time, which was like a small snow scene everywhere, which was very beautiful.
Yi Xichen stepped forward, reached out to catch an ice cream flower, and took a closer look: "Sure enough, it's Qijiao." ”
The snow here is so soft that it reaches your knees when you step on it. Because the snow was too thick, in order not to miss any useful clues, the two of them did not have Edgeworth, and slowly walked forward in the vast valley. As they walked, they also felt strange in their hearts, didn't they say that the ice demon clan here was very disgusted with foreign invaders, but why didn't they see a single demon at the moment?
Suddenly, Yi Xichen's feet were empty, and his body fell down: "Ouch! ”
The eldest grandson Jun hurriedly grabbed him.
Yi Xichen withdrew his foot and used a spell to blow away the snow where Fang had just stood, and found that there was a small hole under the snow, just the size of which was enough for him to sink into. There was nothing at the bottom of the cave.
Yi Xichen muttered, "How can there be such a hole here." ”
The two continued to move forward, and the eldest grandson Jun stepped out, and when he noticed that he had not stepped on the ground, he withdrew his foot by himself. He blew away the snow, and sure enough, there was a little hole like that in the bottom.
The two exchanged a look. It may be a coincidence that one hole appeared in their path, and the size was just right, and it seemed that there was something strange under the snow.
They paused to take a closer look at the white snow.
Soon, they noticed that the snow in front of them was trembling slightly. They didn't pay attention because the wind and their footsteps shook the soft snow.
Yi Xichen put his hand into the bag, pinched a few spirit stones in his hand, and was about to set up a small formation to force the guy under the snow to show up, when he suddenly heard a noise above.
They were standing underneath an ice tree, and the thick snow cover on the ice tree suddenly fell down on them, like a small snowy mountain!
Seeing that they were about to be suppressed, the eldest grandson Jun grabbed Yi Xichen's waist and jumped up, flying out from under the ice tree. I heard a bang, and the snow cover smashed on the ground, raising snowflakes in the sky!
A snow-white demon eagle flew up from the ice tree and flew into the distance. Obviously, the snow cover that suddenly fell just now was his masterpiece.
Yi Xichen couldn't cry or laugh: "These ice demons ...... Really naughty. ”
Digging holes in the ground and collapsing the snow cover are small means that do not hurt them, but rather a means of expelling them.
They didn't care about the demon eagle that had escaped, Yi Xichen threw a few spirit stones around the slightly trembling snow, and silently recited the incantation. I saw that the tremor gradually moved northward, but when it reached the boundary of the spirit stone, it stopped, as if it had hit a wall. After a while, it turned south again and hit the wall again. Then it began to panic a little, and the tremor of the snow became more and more obvious.
Yi Xichen looked at it with great interest, but he was not in a hurry to catch this troublesome little guy.
I saw that the little tremor was getting stronger and stronger, faster and faster, hitting left and right, and it was obviously getting more and more panicked. Finally, with a gentle "poof", a small snow ball bounced out of the snow!
Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson Jun looked at each other, what kind of snow ball popped up, but a snow-white little demon rabbit! The little demons of the Ice Demon Clan are all white-haired, and their demonic aura is not very strong, and they are hidden in the snow, which is really difficult to find.
The demon rabbit surfaced on the snow, and when he saw Yi Xichen and his eldest grandson, he immediately panicked, and turned around to run. It was trapped in the formation by Yi Xichen, and it couldn't get out of the boundary of the spirit stone, so it had to bury its head in the snow again.
Where could the eldest grandson Jun allow it to escape, jumped up and grabbed its two ears and lifted it up.
The little demon rabbit's ears were grabbed and he kicked his legs desperately, but his four legs were short and round, and he couldn't touch the eldest grandson Jun.
Yi Xichen stepped forward with a smile: "Little rabbit, why are you digging a pit for us to step on?" ”
The little demon rabbit kicked his legs for a long time, and found that he couldn't break free, so he simply closed his eyes and began to pretend to be dead.
"Okay, that's another question." Yi Xichen said, "Have you ever seen a beautiful sister with an ice-blue sword." ”
The little demon rabbit opened his eyes suddenly, his big black eyes full of panic, and he began to struggle again.
The eldest grandson Jun frowned slightly: Obviously, this demon rabbit has seen Yue Xiaorou, and I'm afraid it's not just seen.
Suddenly, the demon eagle that flew away just now flew back and swooped down towards Yi Xichen and the eldest grandson Jun!
The demon eagle was menacing, and its claws scratched the hand of the eldest grandson Jun who was holding the rabbit ear! Yi Xichen hurriedly scratched the soft fur of the demon rabbit, and then the eldest grandson Jun let go of his hand.
The demon eagle pounced into the air, and the demon rabbit regained his freedom, and immediately disappeared into the snowdrift again. The demon rabbit ran away, and the demon eagle circled in the sky for a while, knowing that it was not the opponent of these two people, and spread its wings and flew away.
Yi Xichen nodded to the eldest grandson, and Lingxi said, "I put a listening worm on it." The little demon rabbit obviously knew Yue Xiaorou, but for some reason he was hostile to them and refused to tell Yue Xiaorou's traces. Yi Xichen came up with such a method, and when the demon beast let down his vigilance, he might be able to know something.
The eldest grandson said: "Go first, and come back later." ”
The two of them flew towards the edge of the Ice Valley.
Leaving the Ice and Snow Valley, Yi Xichen opened his divine sense and began to listen to the movements of the listening insects. However, for a long time, only the sound of the demon rabbit shuttling through the snow could be heard. Gradually, there was no sound.
They continue to wait patiently.
I don't know how long it took, Yi Xichen suddenly heard the footsteps of people walking again. Walking in the snow does not make a sound of footsteps, and it seems that the little demon rabbit has arrived in a place where there is no snow.
Then he heard a young and cheerful voice shouting, "Sister Xiaorou! ”
Immediately, Yue Xiaorou's voice said: "Tuan Tuan." ”
Yi Xichen immediately came to his senses, grabbed his sword and said: "Yue Xiaorou is here, go!" ”
The worm was raised by him, connected to his divine sense, and he was able to hear not only the sounds around the worm, but also the whereabouts of the worm. The two of them immediately took their swords and flew towards the ice and snow valley!
