Chapter 25: A Thousand Piles of Snow
"Tigers and leopards can be tailed, snakes can be kicked, and I don't know why. ”
"Childe, what does this mean?"
Ning Yi sat in the carriage, lifted the curtains, and watched the reflection of the snow wood passing past his eyes, the snow was like a knife, and the cold wind was howling, but all the cold air ...... are all shielded out.
It was the eleventh day of the run.
There is a red talisman pasted in the carriage, with the word "Qiong furnace" written on it, and the square inch of space, warm as spring, and the boiling hot flow is neither dry nor hot, just right.
The two marched for nearly a thousand miles in the snowy forest, relying on each other as companions, looking down from a high altitude, this carriage slipped and swept alone, galloping, and the two waves of snow were lifted and broken, but slowly recovered.
The world of the great demon clan, the land of heavy snow, long silence, this is a long line bypassing the interface between the West Demon Domain and the Northern Demon Domain, the road is long, Ning Yi's divine thoughts are released, sensing the vitality of some "existence", knowing that he is finally about to reach the border barrier.
Western Demon Domain.
Red Sakura Xiao Nizi is a little girl with low cultivation qualifications, but quite studious, Ning Yi occasionally explains some of the classical old relics recorded on Xiaoshuang Mountain in Shushan, some are interesting things recorded by Mr. Zhao Rui on the procession, and some are the literature of the older generation in Shushan.
Xiao Nizi, who was born and raised in the soil of the demon clan, is full of yearning for the customs and customs of the Great Sui, and most of the time her eyes are shining.
If you don't understand, you must ask.
Ning Yi took back the curtain cloth of the car and said softly:
"A tiger and a leopard can be tailed, and a snake can be crushed, which means that even a fierce tiger and leopard can follow behind, and even a sinister poisonous snake can trample on the body...... Many things, just seeing the surface, are not enough. ”
Red cherry blossoms seem to understand whether they understand or not.
She muttered two words softly.
"Snake ......"
Ning Yi has been talking about "Dongyanzi Travels" these days, Mr. Zhao Rui is his nominal teacher, but the fate between the two is one side, there is no fate, Xu Zang gave the fine snow to himself in Anle City, he is the master of Xiaoshuang Mountain in Shushan.
Mr. Zhao Rui's cultivation realm when he was young was extremely high, and he was kind and kind, and his anger was not deep, and his practice was the way of nurturing qi and immortality, which was diametrically opposed to Xu Zang's Taoism, the two of them were like a yin and a yang, complementing each other's shortcomings, existing on both sides of the stone wall of the Taoism in this world, it is difficult to imagine that two people with such different personalities are actually intimate masters and apprentices.
Xu Zang admires Mr. Zhao Rui very much.
It's not just Xu Zang.
The entire Shushan is full of respect for Mr. Zhao Rui.
The lord of Lu Shengshan left too early, Mr. Zhao Rui shouldered the girder of Shushan alone, and when the green and yellow were handed over, he cultivated several generations of small mountain masters, and finally had today's senior sister with a thousand hands, as well as a senior brother of the sword embryo, to stabilize the situation in Shushan.
The prestige of Dongyanzi once resounded in two worlds.
It is said that when Mr. Zhao Rui was young, he once traveled to the world of the demon clan, and this rumor is not known to the outside world whether it is true or not...... But Ning Yi was clear in his heart.
He read the book "Dongyanzi Travels" several times at the time, and Mr. Zhao Rui recorded what he saw and heard in the world of the demon clan, as well as some old things.
Cross the long line of snow forests in the Northern Demon Domain and the Western Demon Domain.
The region where it has arrived today...... Named "Snake Domain", Mr. Zhao Rui marked two interesting things in his travelogue, the snake clan is fierce and vicious, but when it snows heavily, they often hoard food and sleep for a long time.
This is not the case with snakes.
The snake lives on the edge of the snow forest in the West Demon Domain, not only does it not have the concept of "hibernation", but the colder the weather, the more prone it is to commotion, this clan is quite cautious, because the strength of the bloodline is not high, and the West Demon Domain can only be regarded as the last stream, so it strictly guards this barren land, and there are no other outsiders to compete with it.
When Mr. Zhao Rui traveled to the Western Demon Domain, the great leader of the snake clan was only in the cultivation realm of about a thousand years.
The thousand-year realm is equivalent to the life star of the human race.
Ning Yi's expression was quite calm.
"Over the years, maybe something has changed. ”
I wonder if there is a demon lord in the clan?
He walked along the edge of the snowy forest, and the movement of the carriage was not too big, so it should not cause unnecessary trouble.
His divine thoughts were released, Mu Ran overlooked the movement within a mile of this radius, in this snow forest, he sensed fragments of scarlet shadows, stinging shallow in the ground, it seemed to be "hibernating", but in fact it was "fake sleep", these were unenlightened little demons, the cultivators in the real clan, the so-called core clansmen, at least the demon cultivators after the transformation.
Those demon cultivators should gather on the "Snake Mountain" deep in the snow forest.
The second thing that Mr. Zhao Rui recorded was on the "Snake Mountain".
Back then, Mr. Zhao Rui hid his identity and paraded the demon clan in the world, unlike the high-profile travel of Ye's predecessors, "Dongyanzi" is a secret that only Xiaoshuangshan knows.
When Zhao Rui was young, he walked the demon clan and came to the snake clan, and found that although the weather here was cold, the aura was abundant, especially on the snake mountain, where the snake clan gathered.
The hill where Mr. Zhao Rui is located is called "Little Frost Mountain".
Take the meaning of "frost kills herbs".
There is such a sentence written in "Dongyanzi Travels", the snake clan in the West Demon Domain, the head of the snake mountain, the frost is extremely strong, if the descendants of Shushan have the fate to go to the demon clan, you can take a look, and you will get something after watching.
Ning Yi didn't have the idea of going to "Snake Mountain" to have a look.
According to his plan, after walking quietly on this route, he would then cross the snow field of the Western Demon Domain, and then bypass the Badu City, even if it was the most difficult period.
During this period, it can take several months.
The Western Demon Domain has not been peaceful, and the forces of all parties are fighting endlessly.
But compared to directly hitting the iron plate of Badu City, Ning Yi is still willing to choose "safe".
......
......
In the carriage, the red cherry blossom Xiao Nizi was still chewing what Ning Yi had just said.
"If you're brave enough, you won't have to close your eyes later. ”
Xiao Nizi was a little confused.
Ning Yi put down the curtain, he pressed his hands on his knees, the fine snow was as good as ever, and he held down the hilt of the sword body, and it roared.
The carriage was bumpy, the curtains were swaying, but the snow flakes were not allowed in.
His thoughts scattered.
Miles away, something seemed to be surging beneath the snow.
It's a huge snake.
It is about ten zhang long, and the thickness is hugged by three people, sneaking under the snow layer, if you raise your head, you can directly smash a towering snow tree. This kind of momentum is much more violent than the demon snake growing in Dasui, and sure enough, this world is the growth place of demon spirits, just a glance at the divine thoughts, you can see that the growth momentum of that thing is completely out of proportion to the cultivation realm.
Such a huge body does not even have a spirit.
The natal true body of this snake's demon clan is estimated to be comparable to the great demon who has been cultivated for eight or nine hundred years, and he called the little gentleman in the back realm of the academy back then, I'm afraid that one person can't handle this big thing.
I've been careful......
Ning Yi frowned, a little puzzled, did he alarm this "snake"?
The snow tide is gradually setting off.
The big snake alarmed hundreds of rolling small snakes, like a snowball, the snow tide within a radius of several miles is no longer peaceful, one after another pitch-black heads are flying in the snow, these snow creatures, a few steps away from the Jiaojiao, the speed in the snow layer is like flying, the red cherry blossom curiously lifted the curtain, frightened pale, overlooking from the carriage, the distant snow tide is like swaying hundreds of flashing long-tailed tadpoles, and like a black thunder from far and near.
The two snow-white dragon horses, separated by a few miles, were frightened, snorted, and rushed forward.
Ning Yi raised his two sleeves, and seven or eight cyan "Hongmao Talismans" flew out of his sleeves, urging the mountain scroll without hesitation, and using the starlight to control the talismans, so that the speed of this carriage increased dramatically.
In the snow, the horse's hooves trampled like thunder, and the sound of rolling intensified, dragging a carriage flowing with blue light galloped and flew away, almost flying, turning into a heavy crossbow arrow that broke away from the crossbow's chamber.
The sound of breaking wind rumbled.
Hongying's face was pale, but she was very bold, she still held the mouth of the carriage with both hands, and the seven or eight cyan talismans flew out of Ning Yi's cuffs, winding along the windows of the carriages on both sides, sticking to the carriage and the horse's hooves, she felt a huge "push back feeling", the whole person stagnated backwards, Ning Yi still looked calm, and her hands were steadily pressed on the sword body.
Hundreds, thousands, of snakes, travel through the snow tide.
Two dragon horses, about to fly through the snow, desperately dragged the carriage, trying to shoot through the snow before the snake tide arrived.
Red Sakura held her breath, she stared at the snow in the distance, watching the snake tide on the side of the carriage rushing towards her, but Ryoma was too fast under the blessing of the talisman.
I'm really going to get out.
The next moment.
The snow in the ground is loosening.
Little Nizi let out an exclamation.
In the snow, a triangular head the size of several zhang was suddenly raised, the snow exploded, and a vertical pupil as cold as the size of a carriage lit up about three feet in front of the red cherry girl, and the hissing snake letter spit out.
Ahead of him was Ryoma's heart-rending shouts, and his heart and gall were broken.
Red Sakura's breathing almost stopped.
Surrounded by ancient trees and stumps that only had vague shadows left, and those snakes in the distance were thrown farther and farther away, and this "big guy" looked leisurely and contented, and did not have much difficulty, indifferently but easily followed the left side of the carriage, smashing ancient trees and stubborn stones all the way, gradually raising his body, no longer sneaking under the snow.
A suffocating shadow looms over Ryoma's head.
Hongying's mind was full of Ning Yi's words.
"If you're brave enough, you won't have to close your eyes later. ”
She didn't have much guts.
At the moment when the snake appeared, that small courage was almost scared out of its chest.
But Ning Gongzi said this to himself...... Explain that there will be no danger.
Sakura trusts the young man beside her immensely.
Ning Yi kept his eyes closed, his brows tightly locked, as if he was thinking about something.
These snakes ...... What caused the riots?
Is it yourself?
His thoughts continued to spread, and by the time the gloom flew up and enveloped the carriage, he finally found the answer he was looking for miles away.
The sound of a "booming" snow tide squeezing.
The huge "snake" of about ten zhang hit it fiercely.
At the same time, Ning Yi opened his eyes.
He slid through the fine snow with one hand, as if he was making a sleeve raising motion to stretch his arm, and his two fingertips brushed the sword body, not like handing the sword, but more like wiping out a wisp of sword qi.
Red Sakura didn't blink.
She saw Ning Gongzi's movement of raising his sleeves, as relaxed and freehand as playing the piano.
The curtain of the carriage made a soft "whoosh" sound.
Extremely light and soft, like a steel needle.
This wisp of sword qi swept into the snow tide.
There was a "boom" boom.
Extremely fast and heavy, like a heavy crossbow.
The stout snake with a length of ten zhang had its eyes almost bulging out at this moment.
In the midst of the snow tide, the big guy who smashed it hard came and went faster, his head was pierced by the sword qi, blood was splashed, and he crashed into the steep mountain wall a mile away, and the long tail pendulum swept out a thousand piles of snow like a bell.
