For a while, the wind broke the snow, and above the hole without a gap, it was like a white waterfall hanging in the air.

The two hurriedly raised their cloaks to cover up, but the two lanterns could not be pulled, and were easily torn to pieces by the fierce wind, and under the vast snow curtain, the red raccoon dog valley was like a bottomless abyss.

After a long time, when the wind and snow gradually weakened, the two of them lit the torches instead, and the surroundings were as bright as they were.

The entrance of the cave ravaged by the strong wind is even more mysterious, the original scenery has been unrecognizable, in a trance, only to see a cluster of thorn forests suddenly appear at the entrance of the cave, the branches and vines are intertwined into a high wall, teaching people to raise their eyes.

The general couldn't help but wonder, originally this was just a snowy spot, and in the snap of his fingers, it seemed that a bush of thorns had grown out of the ground like crazy, blocking the entrance to the cave.

At this time, the sound of the beast had disappeared, and only a little wind could be heard, as if it had come from eternity. Jiang Li stood in front of the thorn bushes, looked up and down, the thorn forest is too high, light work will definitely not work, the thorns are woven denser than the net, there is no possibility of entering at all, for today's plan, only to burn a way out of the fire.

He frowned, looked at the torch in his hand, and then threw it into the thorn bush......

"Wait!"

It was obviously too late to stop, Liu Siniang held the torch in her hand, her eyes were certain, and she immediately kicked out a terrifying wave from under her feet, and in the void, there seemed to be a handsome snow dragon cutting through the mid-air silence, and at the speed of lightning and flint, it flew to the place of the torch and swallowed the fire in one gulp.

For a while, the snow in the sky was like a fog, and even if the wind blew, it could not be dispersed for a while.

Seeing that the fire had been extinguished, Liu Siniang's face returned to calm, and when her eyes turned to leave, she saw the surprise in his eyes, which made her realize something.

She was stunned, walked over, and said in a calm tone: "If there is a fire, it will inevitably startle the grass and snakes." What's more, these thorns in front of you are not ordinary thorns, they are called red flame thorns, which can grow the momentum of towering ancient trees, and they are also copper walls and iron walls, indestructible, light skills, sharp weapons are constantly chopped, and the flames cannot be burned to death. The deadliest thing is that the branches and leaves of the Red Flame Thorn secrete a layer of venom like dewdrops. Once you fall into it, you will be poisoned. ”

"I really didn't expect there to be such a savage plant in this red raccoon dog valley!" Jiang Li's slightly cautious gaze fell on the Red Flame Thorn again, and he was puzzled: "No matter how great the Red Flame Thorn is, it is too mysterious to grow out of the flat ground in an instant, and grow into such a situation!" ”

Liu Siniang smiled indifferently and explained: "These red flame thorns are very good at camouflage, and often use snow as skin to build high walls, which seem to be snowy, but they are not. Moreover, these red flame wattles feed on snow scale insects all year round, and with their strong ability to bear snow, they can form a natural snow blessed land overnight, attracting countless snow scale insects to reproduce here. And the reason why the branches and leaves of these red flame wattles secrete a layer of venom is closely related to these snow scales. ”

"Snowworms? Why has this poison never been heard of? "Since he was five years old, he has been familiar with the thousands of ravines and ravines depicted in the Secret Pavilion, and to this day, he is not too unfamiliar with this red raccoon dog valley, since this snow scale insect is so powerful, how can he not have a little impression?

Liu Siniang said: "It's not that the snow scale insects in the Red Raccoon Dog Valley are not well known, but that there is no such poison in this Red Raccoon Dog Valley. This kind of poison only appears in the Snow Sacrifice Heavenly Kingdom in Beiming Mountain, and this Snow Sacrifice Heavenly Kingdom has always been famous for its 'Poison Gu Technique', this country has been raising Gu for generations to manipulate slaves, each slave has a poison in his body, and those who disobey will be tortured by the poison in his body, but they will not die. Decades ago, the Snow Festival Heavenly War was full of fierce internal fighting, and one day the Depression Wall broke down, and the entire kingdom collapsed inside, and in the end, only a large number of surviving slaves remained. The slaves fled and scattered, but they could no longer live like normal people because of the poison in their bodies. Gradually, among these slaves, a race began to form again. Although they had not mastered the 'Poison Gu Technique' of the Snow Sacrifice Heavenly Kingdom, because of their physique that was different from ordinary people, they also quietly became a turbulent undercurrent in the rivers and lakes. It took them several years to recall all the slaves who had escaped that year, and they grew stronger in the process. ”

"These slaves are the Ban slaves who invaded Dongkui for 12 years, they were wiped out in the Red Raccoon Dog Valley, countless corpses were thrown into the ravine, and all of them were rotted overnight, and the poison in their bodies survived by sucking the carrion on the host's body, and began to reproduce and live under the Red Raccoon Dog Valley."

Jiang Li suddenly looked at Siniang, his face was full of incredulity, "The poison in their bodies is the snow scale insect!?" ”

He suddenly understood that the disaster of twelve years ago seemed to have disappeared, but in fact it had never been, and these snow scale insects that depended on the Red Flame Thorn to survive were the best proof of this, they were just like the obsession buried deep in Brother Jiu's heart to find out the true cause of his father's death, and continued to grow wildly with the Red Flame Thorn.

And at this moment, the snow scale worm in his heart has been swimming underground for several years, and is destined to break out of the ground savagely!

"Of course, these red flame wattles are not without weaknesses, every June, the temperature of the red raccoon dog valley rises, the snow becomes scarcer and scarcer, the snow scale insects return to the ground, and the red flame wattle has no nutrients, it will gradually decline, turning into a low thorn bush. As soon as the autumn frost arrives, these red flame wattles will form a new cooperation with the snow scale insects. Year after year, cycle after cycle. Liu Siniang said.

Jiang Li said calmly: "In this way, wouldn't we have to wait until the next year when the temperature rises and the red flame thorn is exhausted before we can enter the cave?" ”

Liu Siniang shook her head slightly, and continued: "There is a trail behind the mountain that can go up the mountain, at first I was worried that the wind and snow would be strong this year, and the trail would be blocked, but fortunately, I went to see it just now, and this path can still be reached." Now we are coming up from the back mountain. ”

"Back Mountain?" Jiang Li was still a little confused, wondering how to enter this cave in front of the mountain from the back mountain?

Seeing that Siniang had turned around and headed for the back mountain, he didn't think much about it, and thought about it to follow.

When he passed by the place where Siniang was standing, he couldn't help but notice the deep pit under his feet, and there was a faint hesitation in his eyes, if it wasn't for the depth of the snow pit, how could he stir up such a large piece of flying snow and extinguish the flames in the distance......

Hearing the footsteps stop, Liu Siniang couldn't help but stop, turned around, frowned and asked, "Will leave, what's wrong?" ”

The general raised his head casually, and then hurriedly followed, and the pace of the two was the same.

I couldn't think about it, but he still opened his mouth: "I heard Siniang say that Siniang has given guidance to masters over the years, and only then did he know some martial arts." I don't know where Siniang is taught? ”

Liu Siniang's long eyelashes couldn't help but cover it lightly, and she said suddenly: "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”

"It's nothing." Jiang Li said with a smile: "I just think that Siniang's martial arts are very good, presumably this master must be extraordinary in martial arts, if you can get to know it, it would be good." ”

Shocked by these words, Liu Siniang stopped, did not hesitate for too long, and replied: "We will meet in the future." Taking advantage of the light wind and snow at this time, let's hurry up the mountain! ”

Hearing this, Jiang Li nodded slowly, half curious, half longing in his heart.

Standing on the towering rock, looking down on the front of the mountain, those red flame thorns are like a natural barrier erected from the abyss, that is, standing here, you can see the end of the red flame thorn slightly.

"This is the top of the cave under our feet." Liu Siniang pointed to the place sandwiched between the Red Flame Jing and the entrance of the cave, and said happily: "The Red Flame Jing did not lock the entrance of the cave, and there was still a place to stay, jump down from here, as long as you are careful, you can reach the entrance of the cave!" ”

"It's really the road to the heavens!" Jiang Li's eyes were full of surprise, he really didn't expect that there was still such a passage between the thorn forest and the cave entrance, he immediately looked at Siniang, and said confidently: "Although this cave is deep, with my light skills, it is absolutely no problem to go down!" ”

"Don't get too happy." Liu Siniang said solemnly: "It is easy to reach the entrance of the cave, but it is not easy to successfully enter the cave!" ”

She knew that this was the beginning for now, and that the hard questions were always to come.

Jiang Li thought for a moment, "Does Siniang mean the beast in the cave?" ”

Liu Siniang nodded heavily, "There are two beasts in it, and each one is extremely fierce. I have tried to enter the cave many times, not to mention that the entrance to the cave is narrow, and there is also the Red Flame Thorn behind, once I fight against the beasts inside, I can't subdue it, and it is difficult to get out, even in the middle of summer, there is no threat of the Red Flame Thorn behind me, and it is extremely difficult to subdue these two beasts. ”

"In this way, Siniang has been defeated many times?" Seeing Siniang's worried face, Jiang Li couldn't help but ask, Liu Siniang nodded in response, Jiang Li looked thoughtful, and suddenly asked curiously: "So, what about Siniang's master?" ”

It was no surprise that he would ask such a question, Liu Siniang remained silent and shook her head regretfully.

At this point, the scene is inevitably a little silent.

She raised her eyes and looked at the vast deep valley, when the sea of fire tried to swallow everything, then the wind and snow covered everything, and now, the night has annihilated everything, and when will the truth be revealed.

The roads in the Red Raccoon Dog Valley are mostly long and narrow, and the possibility of horse-drawn carriages traveling with them is extremely small, and even if the horse-drawn carriages can enter, how can it enter the steep road back to the peak?

Twelve years ago, when the master evacuated to Huifeng Road, the fire and thunder that suddenly broke out, and the sea of fire that burned the plain, were by no means ordinary gunpowder could be made, nor was it enough for one cart and one bucket.

It was not an overnight task to create such a powerful and deadly thunderbolt, but there was also the problem of solving the difficulties of transportation, ambushes, and not leaving a clue afterwards. Unless the fire and thunder fall from the sky that day, the greatest possibility is to use local materials and adapt measures to local conditions, and create this kind of fire and thunder in this red raccoon dog valley!

If this is the case, the people behind it will inevitably choose a place in this valley to make mines. So, where will they choose the huge red raccoon dog valley?

Over the years, she searched the entire Red Raccoon Dog Valley, but she did not find the answer until three years ago, when the most violent avalanche in history occurred in Dongkui.

She suddenly looked at the leaving, looking forward to the flow.

"Will leave, the truth of twelve years ago is hidden in this cave, to reveal it or not, in one move!"
