Chapter 159: Under the Sky Mountain
In the early morning of the next day, Lu Qingzi wore thick cotton clothes and drove the carriage to Lingxiao Mountain.
The closer he got to Lingxiao Mountain, the more Lu Qingzi could feel the cold.
When he arrived at the foot of Lingxiao Mountain, Lu Qingzi regretted that the cotton clothes he bought were still thin.
took out the quilt from the car and surrounded her, Lu Qingzi looked at the towering Ling Xiaoshan in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, now, she finally knows why this mountain is called Lingxiao Mountain.
Towering into the clouds, it is indeed worthy of the word Lingxiao.
But no matter how high the mountain is, Lu Qingzi has to climb up at this moment.
When Lu Qingzi was about to enter the mountain with the carriage, he found that there was a family not far away.
In such harsh cold conditions, there are still people living?
Lu Qingzi felt a little surprised, and for a moment moved his thoughts, and drove the carriage to the door of the house.
After getting out of the carriage, Lu Qingzi knocked on the door of the house.
A woman's voice sounded old from inside, "Who's outside?" ”
Lu Qingzi answered, and after a while, someone opened the door, and it was an old man with gray hair.
"Old lady, may I ask which way Ling Xiaoshan will go, which way is more convenient?"
Lu Qingzi asked politely, and the old man looked at Lu Qingzi with some surprise: "You want to go up to Lingxiao Mountain?" ”
She nodded, "Yes." ”
The old man dissuaded: "Forget it, little girl! None of those who went up survived. ”
Lu Qingzi said in her heart, if there was another way, she naturally didn't want to go up.
"My family is seriously ill, and I need the snow lotus of this mountain to save my life, no matter how difficult it is, I have to go up." Lu Qingzi looked at the old man and said, "Please ask the old lady to show you a way." ”
When the old man heard Lu Qingzi say this, he said, "I have lived here for decades, and I have never heard of any snow lotus on this Lingxiao Mountain. ”
"It grows on the top of Lingxiao Mountain." Lu Qingzi didn't believe that Ning Wanhua would make a mistake, what she wanted naturally must exist.
Seeing that Lu Qingzi was very firm, the old man pointed to a path and said to her: "This road is easier, you can try it!" ”
Shaking his head as he spoke, he closed the door and entered the house, Lu Qingzi wanted to say anything more, but he didn't have time, so he could only say thank you outside the house.
Lu Qingzi got into the carriage and followed the road pointed out by the old man just now.
Inside the house, a man's knife was resting on the head of another gray-haired old man, and the old lady looked at the man and said, "I have already told you, can you let go of my wife?" ”
The man smiled and put down the knife in his hand and said to her, "Mrs. Xuanyuan can help me say this, and I am very grateful." ”
Mrs. Xuanyuan sneered and said, "Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing such a damned thing?" ”
The man smiled and said to Mrs. Xuanyuan, "Retribution? Your Majesty is the true Son of the Dragon, how can you say retribution? ”
As he spoke, he opened the door and left Lady Xuanyuan's house.
Mrs. Xuanyuan lifted up her old wife and sighed.
"I can only hope that she can find out that something is wrong sooner and come out as soon as possible!"
On the other side, Lu Qingzi drove the carriage into Lingxiao Mountain, and walked for half an hour, but found that although the carriage walked this road, it had been walking for a long time, but it had not found an upward path, and it felt like it had been spinning in place.
Lu Qingzi was a little skeptical, could it be that he had taken the wrong path?
Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from behind, and he was about to get closer to himself in the snow.
Lu Qingzi felt a bad feeling in his heart, and hurriedly drove the carriage forward.
Who knew that the sound of horses' hooves behind them was getting closer and closer, and soon overtook Lu Qingzi and forced the carriage to stop.
The person on the horse was wearing armor and a military uniform, and Lu Qingzi secretly shouted badly, it was Zhou Qingwu's person!
Lu Qingzi hurriedly drove the carriage in the other direction, and the sound of horses' hooves behind followed behind, like a cat chasing a mouse, chasing her and playing.
Lu Qingzi panicked, but this place was like a labyrinth, as if he couldn't get out all the time.
In a hurry, Lu Qingzi whipped hard, and the horse was suddenly stimulated and galloped forward.
At this moment, the speed is already much faster than just now, and it is obviously no longer under Lu Qingzi's control.
Lu Qingzi wanted to get rid of the soldier behind her, and she also wanted to break out of this labyrinthine terrain, but at this moment she had no other choice.
Finally, Lu Qingzi saw a new path ahead, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
As a result, when I got to the front, I found that the terrain on both sides was steep, and it was impossible to cross the carriage at all, but at this moment the carriage was out of control, and for a while, even the people and the cart overturned.
Lu Qingzi didn't have time to react, only felt that sharp stones were touched in many places all over his body, and he clenched his teeth in pain.
The soldier who chased Lu Qingzi rode to the place where Lu Qingzi fell, watched Lu Qingzi roll down the steep frontal rock wall, and then let him stay motionless.
The white blood splattered with a little scarlet, and even from a distance, it was clear to see.
A smile appeared on the corner of the soldier's mouth, and soon, Lu Qingzi would freeze to death in this mountain, according to His Majesty's order, he would be cut with a knife, it would still be too cheap for her.
Soon he rode away.
It wasn't until the night began that Lu Qingzi finally had some senses.
Lu Qingzi slowly stood up from the snow, the horse had fallen to its death, and the car naturally couldn't be used.
Lu Qingzi sighed, took out the warm clothes from the car, put them all on his body, wrapped the prepared food in a cloth, and climbed up Lingxiao Mountain again with his back.
She had long known that this trip would not be easy, but she didn't expect that Zhou Qingwu would know so quickly that she was coming to Lingxiao Mountain to look for a hundred-year-old snow lotus.
I'm afraid that this time, when I went to find Ning Wanhua, I was found by Zhou Qingwu's secret guards.
But as long as he didn't find out where Wen Ye was, then everything would be easy to say.
I just don't know, how is Wen Ye now?
Thinking of Wen Ye, Lu Qingzi's pace quickened a few steps.
She must climb to the top of the mountain as soon as possible, for the sake of Wen Ye, she can't die on this Lingxiao Mountain.
At this moment, it was getting darker and darker, and Lu Qingzi knew that it was really not a good thing to find a place on the snowy mountain where he could stay overnight.
So the top priority now is to find a place where you can hide from the wind and snow.
At least, it's past the first night.
Lu Qingzi walked all the way, looked all the way, and finally found a place to shelter from the wind after walking for a while.
Lu Qingzi picked up some dry branches and lit them with the fire folds that had been prepared a long time ago, and finally found some warmth in the cold.
The only thing that made Lu Qingzi happy was that the night sky on Lingxiao Mountain was very beautiful, full of stars and dazzling, but it was much better than when she was in the house.
