Chapter 588: No Man's Land

The snowy plateau, the sky is blue, the clouds are blue, the mountains are white, the road is green, and the plateau wind in early spring is as cold as a knife, cold to the bone.

A brand-new Wrangler jeep is running on a road in the no-man's land of the snowy plateau.

The woman who drove the car was charming, charming, charming, every smile, every look, constituted an inexplicable temptation to men. No matter when, no matter what the environment, it can only be Ji Qingsha who is always so feminine.

Xiao Fan sat in the passenger seat, a big fat cat, lazily curled up in his arms, sleeping. Ever since he swallowed the black-brown alien beast Neidan that Wang Wei had traded to Xiao Fan, Hei Lin had been like this for several days, and he had been sleeping most of the time.

To tell the truth, when he let the black-brown bead swallow Heilin's stomach, Xiao Fan hesitated for a long time and failed to make up his mind. It's really this thing, I've never seen it before, there is no precedent to follow, and if you give it to Hei Lin to eat, I really don't know what the result will be. In the end, it was Heilin who solved this problem by himself. The big fat cat was really impatient to wait, and took advantage of Xiao Fan's distraction moment, jumped forward, opened his big mouth, and directly ate Neidan into his mouth and swallowed it. Then, in less than half an hour, he began to fall asleep soundly, and slept for most of the day. There is very little time to be awake.

Xiao Fan has investigated with internal strength many times, but fortunately, except for drowsiness, Heilin has nothing else wrong, so he is a little relieved.

Of course, to be fair, outside of sleeping, Heilin is not without a little other change. In fact, this change has been going on all along, and that is the snow-white fur of Kurin. The speed of turning black is noticeably faster. Since Hei Lin was injured, the hair on his whole body has turned snow-white for more than a year. Less than a tenth of the hairs gradually turn black, and at this rate, it will take more than ten years to regain the old look.

The natural life of a cat is only about ten years. Heilin has lived to this day, and he is in his early twenties, which is equivalent to more than a hundred years of human age. In nature, this is already a miracle in no uncertain terms. Although Hei Lin is Xiao Fan's natal spiritual pet. Nourished by the aura of heaven and earth, the lifespan is far longer than that of ordinary cats, but at this age. Serious injuries can be fatal in terms of life. It is very questionable whether Heilin can live for more than ten years.

As soon as the alien beast Neidan ate it, it was only about twenty days. Black Lin's hair. More than half of it turned black.

An extremely powerful breath of life faintly revealed in Hei Lin's body, very vague, but with Xiao Fan's ability, he could barely feel it.

Because of this, Xiao Fan insisted on running around with Heilin, and even took Heilin with him when he went to the West Asian Desert to find the main altar of the Western Departure Sect. It's obvious. Now is a critical period for Heilin to restore his old outlook or even to the next level, in case something goes wrong. Xiao Fan is not around, so it is too late to regret it. Such a risk cannot be taken.

As for rushing to the snowy plateau this time, relatively speaking, there is not much danger.

Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha are here to find the thousand-year-old snow lotus.

This kind of heaven and earth elixir can never be found in any medicinal material market, it is completely unrealistic, so you can only run this trip and try your luck. According to the record of "Wuji Hidden Relics", it is said that in the depths of the Great Snow Mountain, there is a mysterious tribe called the Toba tribe, who claims to be the slave of the god of the sacred mountain and the most faithful guardian of the sacred mountain snow lotus. Perhaps, they can find this once-in-a-millennium holy medicine.

After Xiao Fan read this record in the "Gleaning Chapter", he went to verify it, and with the help of his military friends, he found that there was indeed such a tribe. Many years ago, the members of the expedition team went to the tribe of the Toba people by chance and had a preliminary understanding of their living conditions. The whole tribe lives deep in the snow-capped mountains and rarely communicates with the outside world. In the end, the relevant state departments took into account the actual situation of the snowy plateau and the Toba people, so in the end, the Toba people were not listed as an independent ethnic group, but were unified into the ranks of the plateau people.

After so many years, the situation on the snowy plateau has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the vast majority of people have completed the leap from a semi-primitive society to a modern society, except for the Toba people, who are still isolated from the world, living alone in the depths of the snowy mountains, unswervingly guarding the promise of their ancestors and passing on the inheritance from generation to generation.

So far, nothing has changed.

For Xiao Fan, this is good news. If the Toba people, like other highland people, have frequent contact with modern civilization, I am afraid that most of them will not be able to resist the temptation of the drunken gold fans of the fancy world. In order to obtain money and other material things, selling their specialties seems to be the quickest shortcut and the most natural option.

If that's the case, there is basically no hope for the thousand-year-old snow lotus.

They don't have a chance to grow that long at all, and they have already been picked up and wiped out.

As long as the tribe of the Toba is found, there is hope. Although such a tribe living in the mountains must be extremely vigilant and wary of the outside world, it is not so easy to convince them to help them collect medicine. But things are man-made, and they can always come up with a way.

In addition to the thousand-year-old snow lotus, Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha's trip also had a purpose, that is, the map that Zhuge Yinghui handed over to them.

As soon as Zhuge Yinghui handed over the map to them, he turned around and left, feeling relaxed, as if he had paid off Xiao Fan's kindness for saving him. Naturally, Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha attached great importance to this map.

Anything that can be worthy of stealing the life of the king cannot be taken lightly.

Moreover, this map was found in the upper volume of the canon handwritten by the patriarch of the plateau religious founding school, and this alone shows its preciousness. What kind of secret did the patriarch of the founding school want to hide by hiding such a map in the mezzanine of the parchment scriptures in his handwriting?

Undoubtedly, this secret is not so easy to find.

Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha are both extremely smart people, and after taking the map back, they studied it carefully for a night, but they didn't find the slightest clue. They used state-of-the-art computer equipment, entered the map into the computer, and asked the system to compare and contrast the map one by one in the global satellite map, but found nothing.

Such a result was also expected by the two.

Because this map should at least describe a place somewhere in the era of the Founding Sect Grandmaster, who has been sitting for nearly seven hundred years. Seven hundred years of vicissitudes, the terrain has changed, and it has long been unrecognizable. Moreover, if this is the topography of a snow-capped mountain described somewhere, there is no trace of it.

Seven hundred years, enough ice and snow to cover the original terrain many times.

It's like how do you find that sand in the desert after a gust of wind?

Since it is a map left by the ancestor of the Snowy High Original School, it is always not wrong to go to the Great Snow Mountain to see it. This thing really has to pay attention to fate. Anyway, it's just right to drop by.

For Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha, this should be a pleasant journey.

From the capital of the snowy plateau to the depths of the Daxue Mountains inhabited by the Toba people, the road alone has to run hundreds of kilometers, which is basically a no-man's land. This plateau is so vast that it is simply endless.

When they left the last checkpoint, the police comrades at the checkpoint reminded them that it was best to find a local guide to lead the way, because they were about to face hundreds of kilometers of no-man's land. Apart from wild animals, it is rare to see any other living creatures. In recent years, young men and women who come to the snowy plateau for road trips are no longer unique, and some can always be seen throughout the year. But there are very few who dare to cross a no-man's land with a single car. For the first time in at least six months, police officers at checkpoints have been encountered. Generally, self-driving tours through no man's land, at least more than three cars, form a team, and support each other. In this way, you must also find a local guide to lead the way. It's not a team and a guide, it's a car and a guide.

What if you run away and fall behind?

A quiet, thin and thin "little white face" like Xiao Fan, with such a good-looking girl, dares to cross the no-man's land when she drives a car, and she is really bold, so she is not afraid of fainting at night?

Therefore, the police comrades could be sure that they would not refuse their own proposals, and without waiting for Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha to reply, they called themselves, planning to call them a guide over. The phone had just been dialed, and before he could speak, the Wrangler jeep was already smoking from behind its butt and driving away.

A slightly hoarse "thank you" faintly floated in my ears.

The police comrade stared at the jeep's ass and was stunned for a while.

Today's young people, is it really too romantic to die?

Let them go.

It's a pity that such a good-looking girl.

Ji Qingsha always had a faint smile on her face, and the steering wheel of the jeep looked particularly light in her hands. This is not the first time Ji Qingsha has been to the snowy plateau, but it is definitely the first time that she has been in such a happy mood. On the straight no-man's land, Ji Qingsha would stop the car from time to time, and stood hand in hand with Xiao Fan under the blue sky, facing the endless sky and the towering snow-capped mountains in the distance, taking a deep breath and closing his eyes.

Although the oxygen is insufficient, the air on this plateau still smells so fresh and intoxicating.

Time passed quickly, hundreds of kilometers of no man's land, and before half of the walk, the sky gradually began to darken.

The sun is setting.

Xiao Fan and Ji Qingsha didn't care very much, and the jeep brought enough equipment, food and drinking water. Spending the night in the wilderness, it's not a big problem. Since you come to the snowy plateau for a "self-driving tour", these preparations must be done.

Of course, it would have been better if you could have stayed in a warm room for one night.

At the end of the sky, something was shaking.

A little closer, Ji Qingsha finally understood that it was actually a guest house, or rather, a gas station. The one that waives in the wind is the sign of the guest house. (To be continued......)
