Volume 2 Heavy Snow in the World Chapter 11 The Guest in the Back Mountain (3rd Update)
Hurt.
It hurts.
My head hurts.
"Hiss......"
Ning Yi gritted his teeth, this was his first reaction after his consciousness recovered, he didn't feel cold, nor did he feel wet...... The pain in the center of his eyebrows drilled into his brain, like thousands of tons of seawater poured into his head, extremely sour, his facial features were wrinkled, and he was shrunk together, and this pain made him almost unable to open his eyes.
This...... Where is this?
"Hmm......"
Ning Yi heard the sound of crackling firewood, the originally damp robe had been dried by the residual temperature, he opened his eyes, and saw the girl squatting next to the fire, curled up.
Ning Yi's lips were dry and wanted to speak, his throat was dry for a while, his hands and elbows were supported, and he wanted to stand up, but in an instant, the world was spinning, and the sharp pain in his head exploded again, and he didn't stand firmly, and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Brother?"
Pei Fu's voice came.
Thousands of Venus burst out in front of Ning Yi's eyes, pitch black, his vision slowly recovered, and finally the pretty face appeared in a trance, Pei Fu's face looked very pale under the reflection of the firelight, but her lips were flushed, and the "sword hidden" in her eyebrows was stimulated, scarlet as blood.
Ning Yi finally knew what was hidden in the "Sword Hide".
He looked behind Pei Fu, the fire that burned slowly, emitting light and heat steadily.
The girl's eyebrows "Sword Hide" hides the starlight relics left by Master Pei Min, Ning Yi fell down the mountain, and found that there is no trace of aura in this world, and the starlight is exhausted, and the starlight in the "Sword Hide" is precious in this place where it cannot absorb aura.
"Girl...... Where is this?" Ning Yi sat up, he looked around, where he was now, was a cave, the dim stone wall, swaying two shadows, the starlight of the fire behind Pei Fu burned, the dull burning sound, and he could hear the water flow not far away, it should have drifted all the way from the place where he fell......
Ning Yi had guessed before, when he was holding Pei Fu and fine snow and gradually losing consciousness, he had guessed that the Qianzhang wall of the back mountain was likely to be a circulation mountain, and the water flow of the deep stream was very large...... However, the reality is desperate, if it is really a gyre mountain, then the whole mountain is probably very huge.
"I don't know. Pei Fu's voice carried a hint of confusion, she raised her head, looked at the stone stalactite above her head that had been condensed for I don't know how many years, and muttered: "When I woke up, I was here." β
The roof of the cave is very narrow, the space is tight, and the stalactites hang overhead, like a sword with a not sharp handle, and the air is humid and cramped above the array, but fortunately, the burning fire of the starlight dispels the darkness.
"This is where Starlight can't be popularized...... There shouldn't be any other living beings. Ning Yi saw the fine snow standing on the side of the stone wall, he clenched his sour and numb fingers, picked up the sword, the sword surface flowed in the light of the fire, he took the snow and muttered, "You brought me here?"
Still no response.
"What about the shadow?" Pei frowned, trying to recall the scene before falling into the back mountain, the moment her consciousness fell into a blur, she could still sense the turmoil in the outside world, and faintly, she could sense the movement of the shadow, which seemed to have broken the shackles of the back realm, and then pounced on the umbrella surface of the fine snow.
"Dead. β
Ning Yi tried to stand up, the soreness and numbness in his body had not faded, he bared his teeth and grinned: "I killed it, luckily, otherwise we will all have to confess here." β
For Pei annoyance...... Ning Yi finally chose to hide it. The identity of the shadow is still unknown, and the matter of the "sword bearer" is even more incredible, and it is not a good thing for the girl to know this.
"Good news, bad news. β
"The good news is that the Pope should be in no trouble. Ning Yi stood with his sword, and without taking two steps, he leaned against the stone wall again, and sat down again, he needed some time to slow down, Xinghui dried up, his bones and muscles were torn, and even if he was asleep for a while, the side effects were still strong.
He looked at Pei Fu, smiled, and said, "The bad news is that we are in big trouble. β
Ning Yi said softly: "Girl, do you know where this is?"
As he said this, he seemed to have rested enough, and he tried his best to get up, and walked towards the outside of the cave step by step.
"This is the back mountain of Shu Mountain. β
"Yes, this is the back mountain...... It is the back mountain of Shu Mountain that hides great opportunities, and it is the back mountain that countless people want to enter but can't enter, and then we are lucky to come in!"
The young man who came to the mouth of the cave smiled, but his laughter did not show the slightest joy, but a faint anger.
He looked up and stretched out over the cave, looking at the dark sky above.
Looking at the sky outside the cave, it was squeezed into a long black line by two mountains, like the eyes of a person squinting when he laughs.
Ning Yi couldn't laugh at all.
He said earnestly word by word: "Who the fuck, can you tell me-"
"This back mountain...... Without a trace of aura, we are separated from it by 108,000 miles, how can we go up?
Pei Fu was silent for a while.
When she woke up, like Ning Yi, she had to say...... Seeing the scene above my head, I couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.
Genuine despair.
If you fall into such a mountain stream, it is a crater closed on all sides...... There is no trace of aura and starlight, it is dark and dark, and you can't even see a single dry grass, how can you not despair?
"Hey!"
Ning Yi raised his hands and raised them on both sides of his cheeks, making a gesture of amplification, and his voice spread between the two mountain walls, spreading ......
"Heyβ"
"Heyβ"
So the dead silence sounded a little more angry.
But there was no response after all.
Ning Yi tilted his head, looking at the thin and pitiful black line in the sky, hoping that someone would be able to hear his voice, and then a cardinal, a white-haired young Taoist priest, or a star giant with a thousand arms would fall from the sky...... Until his neck was sore, the echo was still slowly bouncing and lingering.
In the end, what made a certain unlucky ghost who refused to give up completely give up the idea was a stone that fell from an unknown height, rapid and fast, smashing the sound that echoed between the stone walls, and smashed on the river not far away, and the splash of water split his head and covered his face.
Ning Yi returned to the fire, he gulped and squatted dullly, his clothes wet and dry.
The falling stone made Ning Yi give up all thoughts of asking for help.
Falling from the prohibition of the back mountain, he fell for a long time...... If you are in the lowest place, then no matter how loud you shout, it is impossible for the sound to be heard.
Pei Fu sat beside Ning Yi, and she said softly: "Houshan is a blessed land, Mr. Zhao Rui has gained the understanding between life and death from here, and Xu Zang has realized the sword intent, which is not bad news." β
Ning Yi lowered his eyebrows, he didn't give up hope, calmed down, and thought about it carefully, he just felt that this matter was ...... It's incredible.
Lu Sheng, the ancestor of Shushan, set up such a talisman at the entrance of the first line of heaven in the back mountain, and the edict was almost impossible to break by external forces.
Myself is the third.
The girl is right, Mr. Zhao Rui and Xu Zang have both received great edification here...... But this is clearly a desperate situation.
Ning Yi took a deep breath, he originally thought that Lord Lu Sheng had set up this talisman so that someone broke into the forbidden land of the back mountain, stumbled and fell to the bottom of the mountain, and an accident occurred...... And I was the one who unfortunately stumbled, and now that I think about it, it doesn't seem to be the case.
With the cultivation of that old ancestor, this edict will never get out of control for no reason, even if it is Mr. Zhao Rui, he has only entered the back mountain once...... If he can bring out exercises such as "Star Giant", then there must be a hole in the back mountain.
Zhao Rui and Xu Zang, like "guests", were invited, and then invited into the back mountain of Shushan.
Ning Yi narrowed his eyes, and he thought of the shadow that fell down the mountain stream with him.
The "edict" of Lu Sheng's ancestor would never treat that shadow as a guest.
If a foreign enemy wants to forcibly break the edict, the punishment he receives will inevitably be great, and it is likely to be an accident if he triggers the "edict" himself...... As for the shadow, the moment he fell into the back mountain with him, he would be seen through by the edict.
Ning Yi had no doubt that with the strength of that edict's punishment, if it landed on himself and the shadow, it would tear both of them to pieces in an instant.
A certain line in his mind was cleared at once: the edict identified the "shadow", and let himself fall into the mountain stream with the shadow.
There is no starlight here, there is no aura, even if the shadow is the "back realm", losing the starlight is equivalent to losing the greatest reliance...... Ning Yi did not feel much pressure during the several times he fought with the shadow in the fall, which was completely different from the pressure of protecting the Pope in the back mountain.
The shadow has an extremely strong control over Starlight, and at that time, just a mid-realm cultivator was able to stun the girl through the fine snow umbrella surface.
After falling into the back mountain, it fell several levels.
Ning Yi said what he thought.
Pei Fu's eyes condensed, she finished listening to Ning Yi's words, brushed her sideburns, and said softly: "That shadow...... It is an enemy that Shushan cannot tolerate, and the soul thoughts in the edict cannot allow it to enter the back mountain, if an accident really happens, then it will be allowed to fall into the mountain stream?"
"Yes. β
Ning Yi pursed his lips, and he said seriously: "This big river surrounds the mountain wall, even if I don't kill him, that shadow will never come out....... You're going to be trapped here. β
"Girl, how many stars are left in your 'sword collection'?"
Ning Yi took a deep breath.
Pei Fu pressed one hand to her eyebrows, she hesitated for a moment, and then considered: "It's not much, but it's enough." β
Ning Yi, who didn't think carefully about the meaning of the girl's words, silently calculated something, then stood up, and walked towards the dark part of the cave with the support of the girl.
