Chapter 6 Passes
The snow wolf's gum meat, monkey brain, flame snake meat, and iron ant eggs were all placed in front of the old man of the Qiya tribe full of magical colors, but those accessories were placed on the other side, and the old patriarch was slightly closed, he was closing his eyes to recuperate.
Suddenly, the old man's eyes opened, and then, slowly, his hands were raised, and he muttered to himself. The wind rose, it was a very strange wind, the wind actually rolled up a few main ingredients in front of the old patriarch, those hard-won pieces of meat, slowly stirred with the wind, turning in a circle, turning faster and faster, and finally melting together with the wind.
This is cooking, I was puzzled, how it looked like a washing machine was washing clothes!
The old patriarch's voice became higher, and his hand was also changing rapidly, at this time, in the unscrupulous wind, a little fiery red color appeared, and the fiery red color was evenly scattered in this space, and then, that little bit of fiery red slowly converged into a red lotus, and suddenly, the space in the cave was full of flying flames, and they were floating in the stream caused by the wind, so beautiful!
The old man continued to sing, his hands constantly changing, he was simply a wonderful performer, a genius conductor, and under his command, the elves of heaven and earth performed one excellent repertoire after another, and I was fascinated by it. What a gorgeous show, is this really just cooking?
The old man was commanding the elves of heaven and earth mercilessly, his long snow-white beard fluttering in the wind, and his hands, following some strange rhythm, drew a magical trajectory. His eyes were slightly closed, and he was already intoxicated by this aura world.
"Duh!" The old patriarch let out a low sigh, and his hands were like hugging Tai Chi. The magic of the tornado has been formed, the sudden deformation, the tornado is like a tangible substance, "whew" shattered, the broken tornado is like pieces of glass fragments, scattered around, disappeared, in the heart of the tornado, a large sphere appeared, the ball is still rotating at high speed, the air under its pulling, into a tangible filament, and the sphere, but the sphere, but like a roll full of such filaments. The filaments are slightly white, completely obscuring the contents of the ball. And the fire lotus that was originally scattered in all directions has now gathered together and turned into an even more huge lotus, and on top of the lotus flower is the big ball that keeps turning.
The accessories also rose one by one, and then, as if they had been ground by something, they suddenly turned into powder, and then flew into the ball in an orderly manner, and after everything was added, the petals of the red lotus began to retract, and the sphere was tightly wrapped in the middle, and finally, the sphere disappeared, and in front of us, only a delicate fire lotus remained.
"Haha!" The old man laughed excitedly: "I haven't done it for a long time, but I didn't expect the craft to fall at all." ”
"Is it alright, grandpa?" I asked eagerly, and after watching the old patriarch's wonderful performance, I was eager to know what the dish would look like, and I was wondering what it would taste like. I don't think it's going to be there.
"Child, you are in a hurry, it will take a while, just wait." The old man said to me lovingly.
There are no fancy performances anymore, there is only a budding red lotus floating in the cave, which makes me feel that the waiting time is a little difficult, and the old man's spirit is obviously insufficient, and the spell has lost his previous calmness, I don't want to disturb him anymore, if he is distracted, I have to be there, quietly looking at the lotus, and at the same time estimating in my heart over and over again what will appear in the future.
"Squeak" came, the red lotus bloomed, for a while, the golden light was in full bloom, the strong golden light erupted from the red lotus, my eyes were defenseless, and I was stabbed to close my eyes for a while, and when I opened my eyes again, the red lotus was gone, only a bright golden ball remained, still emitting a compelling light, so that people could not look directly.
I don't know where the old patriarch came from to conjure a plate, and the golden ball was placed on that plate. The plate is very white porcelain, and the golden ball is placed on that plate, like a white cloud offering the sun, or the rising sun on the sea. The golden ball rolled dripping in the plate, slower and slower, until finally it came to a standstill, and then there was a "poof", and the golden ball burst open, and the contents were scattered all over the plate. An amazing scene appeared, the contents of the cracked golden ball actually showed the shape of peaks and mountains on a small plate, and the shape of clouds and mist was entangled, like a fairyland. Looking carefully at the exquisite scenery, it is made of tender white snake flesh as the peak, monkey brain as snow, ant eggs as their binder, they are all snow-white color, it looks like a mountain full of snow, due to the steaming of the heat, it is like the snow mist on the mountain, breathtaking, thousands of mountains and white snow, really do not pay the name.
"Child, this is your reward, it encompasses the agility of the snow wolf, the wisdom of the monkey, the strength of the flame snake, and the strength of the iron ant. Eat it, your strength, agility, and wisdom will increase, and how much you can increase depends on your potential. The old man said kindly.
I looked at this dish that was as strict as a work of art, but I didn't dare to touch it, such a beautiful thing should be preserved and viewed, not eaten, and even the thought of putting it in my mouth felt like a sin.
"Kid, try it." The old man smiled and encouraged me.
I picked up the spoon on the side of the plate, held it up to the "snow on a thousand mountains", scooped a spoonful, and slowly put it in my mouth and chewed it. "Huh." I immediately groaned with satisfaction, the feeling of the entrance, like snow, melted in the mouth, many different meat flavors seamlessly matched, there was a fresh taste of nature, I felt like I had plunged into a large snowfield that had been frozen for many years, and the scenery of ice and snow was in my eyes. What I realized was a kind of "thousands of mountains and birds fly away, and thousands of people disappear." "The view.
After taking a bite, I couldn't stop, the taste, the feeling, made me stretch the spoon to the dish again and again, eating and eating, I felt the different changes in my body, my body slowly became warmer, and then I felt that my body was full of strength, and my mind became clear, as if I could solve all the problems, and I could defeat any opponent. In a few moments, I ate the "snow on a thousand mountains".
"Kid, it tastes good. Look at how much your strength, agility, and intelligence have risen, there was once a young man who ate the "Thousand Mountains and White Snow" I made, and each item rose by more than 20 points at once? That's a young man with potential! ”
I'm busy checking my attributes, and I'm also curious to know if I belong to the category of people with better potential, maybe I may be the first person with potential in ancient and modern times? My attributes, will my attributes increase by fifty or sixty points? If that's the case, my attributes are also very perverted in the "Taimeng" game, right? "Amen, God bless me!"
Strength: 78
Dexterity: 65
Intelligence: 42
It won't add so little, it's just 13 for strength, 9 for agility, and 7 for intelligence. Looking at this attribute, I am extremely dissatisfied, how can I be so far away from the person with high potential that the old patriarch said? There are more than half of the people's homes, which is too much of a failure.
I was a little disappointed and told the old patriarch about a few of my added points, and the old man laughed: "Child, it seems that you are not a gifted person!" But you are very good, there has never been a young man who can raise all the materials alone like you, even if you have the best grades, you can't get the flame snake and iron ant eggs, when I saw you, I thought that my best dish might not be able to be made, you really surprised me! ”
The old man's words gave me some comfort, I am not an imbecile who can't do anything! However, for his own potential is not high, he always makes himself a little angry, and he always looks a little lost.
"Child, you still have many opportunities to enhance your physique in the future, in our world, there are actually a lot of Tianhua treasures, they can all enhance your physique, you will always have a chance to have them if you keep a snack in the future." The old man continued.
The old patriarch's words are very right, in the "Taimeng" game, there are indeed some things that can instantly improve a lot of attribute points, the most famous is a kind of fruit called Zhu Guo, its fruit is red, and there is a powerful power in the small fruit that people can't imagine, as long as you can eat a little bit, the player can be reborn, and the increase in attribute points is not as simple as dozens of points. This kind of thing has already been bid for 9,000,000,000 silver coins on the forum of the official website of the "Taimeng" game, and this price is still negotiable. If that player is lucky enough to get one, then the lucky player will get one. However, to get this kind of Zhu Guo, you can't get it by luck alone, each Zhu Guo has an incomparably powerful magical beast guarding it, and without strong strength, even if you are lucky enough to find Zhu Guo, you won't be able to take it. For this kind of vermilion, it is just an unattainable dream for all players.
I thought that if I was lucky enough to get a vermilion fruit, what a pleasant thing it would be, so I said in a chic manner: "Grandpa's thousand mountains and white snow taste great, and grandpa is really good, and the dishes he makes can even increase attribute points, which is a very precious thing." My attributes have improved a lot all of a sudden, and I have become much stronger, thank you grandpa for your hospitality. I really wish I could eat my grandfather's snow every day. ”
The old man smiled and said, "It's not impossible to eat every day, but this thousand mountains and white snow can only increase attribute points by eating it for the first time, and it is impossible to increase attribute points as much as you eat in the future." ”
I'm not too disappointed to hear the words of the old patriarch.,It's expected.,If you can increase your attributes every time you eat.,Then,There are too many perverted characters in this game.,Because,The high-level chef in the game of "Taimeng" can make dishes like the old patriarch that can increase some attributes.,If you don't do some restraints on such dishes.,That's how everyone doesn't practice hard.,Just keep eating.,That's it.,Wouldn't the whole game be messed up.,What's the point of such a game?
"Son, what are you here for?" The old patriarch asked suddenly.
I was completely defenseless at this time, and said casually, "You are here for the treasure of your clan?" "As soon as the words came out, I immediately regretted it, how could I say such a thing, and in front of the patriarch of the Chiya, although the old patriarch of the Chiya people has been dead for more than a hundred years, he will not allow me to take anything from their clan. How could I be so stupid as to say such an inappropriate statement?
Sure enough, the old patriarch's face immediately pulled down, and there were immediately traces of small electric arcs around me, squeaking in the air, these small electric arcs were still tumbling around me, slowly converging together, several relatively large lightning bolts were forming, it seemed that the old patriarch of the Chiya people decided to give me an unforgettable lesson, let me understand that this is still the holy land of the Chiya people, and anyone who touches the wealth of the Chiya people will not succeed.
In the end, the lightning did not fall, and the old man dispersed the lightning that had already taken shape, sighed and said, "I am really self-deceiving, a person who has worked so hard to come here, in addition to being rich by my clan, what else will he not do?" No one but my people will come here to collect the bones of my people. ”
The old patriarch had a point, and it was true that this was true of all people, and I was not the only one, but I felt that I was blushing so badly that I bowed my head like a child who had done something wrong, and did not dare to look at the old man.
"Kid, come with me!" The old man's figure shrank suddenly, and finally shrunk to the height of a normal person, leading the way in front of me. I felt ashamed in my heart, but forgot to marvel at the miracle of the old patriarch, and carefully followed.
The old man walked a few steps, and suddenly sighed, as if with infinite frost, as if he had thrown away something, and said: "I will take you to the place where my clan lives, where there are countless riches accumulated by my clan for thousands of years, the glory of my clan for thousands of years, and the pride of my clan for thousands of years. ”
When I heard that the old patriarch was really willing to take me to their treasure place, I felt as if I was about to fly, and I almost wanted to announce it loudly to the whole world, to vent the joy in my heart. Now that I heard that the old patriarch was going to give me their most precious things, my heart almost burst out with excitement, and I felt that I could not breathe, as if I were about to suffocate.
Although I was so excited, but I didn't dare to show it at all, this feeling of restraining my feelings made me very uncomfortable, if I could, I really wanted to find a place where no one was, and laughed at him for two days and two nights. But in order not to anger the old man and let him not change his mind, I could only hold back my laughter desperately, honestly follow the old man, and walk with him.
Walking to the middle of the cave hall, the old man stopped, turned back to me, and said, "Child, stick your finger out." ”
Strange, what does the old patriarch want my fingers for, and how can my fingers help him? Is there something on my finger that I don't know about? Or maybe the old patriarch wants to put a ring on me! That's it, he's going to give me a strange ring, and only by wearing it can I go in and out of their living quarters freely, the Chiya's living quarters are their more important places, and of course the defense must be very tight, and it will have some unknown protection, and its entry and exit will require something like a pass, and the old patriarch is now going to give me this kind of pass like a ring.
"Ouch!" A sharp blade of wind silently slashed across my finger, and then a deep wound appeared on my finger, and bright red blood came out of the wound and splashed on the ground, and I couldn't help but moan with the sharp pain that followed. This old guy is so hateful, he didn't say anything, just give me a yin. I glared at the old patriarch, this was too much, even if he wanted to punish me, he could tell me clearly, let me be prepared! Why bother to keep quiet?
"Come and read it with me, what are you talking about......" The old patriarch ignored my silent protest and urged me.
I don't know what the old patriarch is going to do, and looking at his appearance, he won't explain it to me now, so I will follow him there.
Something incredible happened, the old patriarch taught me to read it, and the blood I dripped on the ground disappeared, no, it should have seeped into the floor, and the floor began to slowly light up, and the more my blood seeped in, the brighter the floor became, as if the floor was made of glass, and there were countless bright electric lights under the floor, and the light revealed from under the floor.
Something even more incredible was yet to come, the light from the floor was bent into one place, and that spot was also on the floor, and that spot was now as dazzling as someone had used countless mirrors to concentrate the light on the floor, and then the light from that place became a square.
The light grew brighter and brighter, and the square slowly became substantial, and the light above it became like a pool of lake water, undulating and undulating. The light is not only bright, but also purple and blue.
This is the passage, I saw the square light and shadow, and my heart immediately cried out, I have played some other online games before, some of them are like this, such a door is also called the door of time, or the door of the mirror, it can send people to the destination at once, and it is extremely convenient. It turns out that the old patriarch told me to stretch out his finger to ask for my blood to cast magic to open the door? Good fellow, I didn't expect my blood to have this kind of function.
When the old patriarch stopped chanting the incantation, the light dimmed, and the floor slowly became darker, and soon there was no more light to shine through, and the whole cave hall returned to its previous appearance. However, the door made of light did not disappear with the end of the spell, and he did not change in the slightest compared to the appearance before the spell stopped, still like a pool of clear water, rippling with waves.
The old patriarch walked straight to the door without saying hello to me, and the light gate was spread on the floor, it was really like a pool of water, and I saw the old patriarch's feet stepping into the light gate, as if he really stepped into the water, and the light that made up the door was separated like water, and then the old patriarch's feet were submerged under the light gate, and as the old patriarch walked into the door, his lower limbs, waist, chest, and even his neck were submerged in the light gate.
Watching the old patriarch fade behind the door, I immediately followed, and when my feet stepped into the door, I felt nothing, and then my feet passed through the light door that shook like nothing, and stepped on the hard floor. When the other foot was on the ground, I immediately guessed that the place hidden by the light door was a step, a step going down.
When I completely sank under the light gate, I clearly saw the true appearance of the steps, more scientifically speaking, this step is not called a step, but should be called Yongdao, or it is a long tunnel, it is indeed very long, and zigzag, twists and turns, I followed the old patriarch, walked for a long time and did not come to the end. This tunnel, although a little crooked, is very wide. It can be seen from some places in this tunnel that this tunnel is completely carved out of the rock, and to make such a long tunnel so wide, it has a lot of work, and I once again experienced the magnanimity and luxury of the Chiya people. My heart is getting more and more excited, what kind of surprise will the treasures of the Chiya people give me?
Not long after, my eyes suddenly widened, and we had unconsciously walked to a small hall, which was very empty, without any decorations, empty. There is a door at the end of the small hall, there are two doors and pages tightly closed, the door pages are black, I can't see what material is made of, the pattern on it is very old, standing at the door, a simple feeling rushes to the face.
The door is very large, very high, about 30 feet, and we are like two small ants next to a big cake in front of it, such a huge door, if we want to open it, maybe we need a whole team of soldiers, right? Is this Chiya really careful, is it necessary to build such a huge and heavy door here? If so, I think this cave hall is more suitable for the outside.
I looked at this door, looking for a way to open the door, such a huge door, its weight is probably not less than 10,000 catties, I don't have the confidence to push it, this old patriarch is cunning enough, knowing that there is such a big gate that I can't pass through, but pretending to be generous, leading me in, let me be anxious through the door, so as to kill my greed.
However, I blamed the old patriarch again, and he looked at me and said, "Son, do you see this door?" It is made of dark iron, weighing 90,000 catties, if you don't understand the secret law of our clan, no one can open it, even the giant clan of Shikarin can't push it, our clan calls it the gate of protection, with it, everything in my clan can be preserved.
I listened to the words in my mouth, but I didn't think so, if this is the case, then, as long as the people of the Qiya clan hid behind the door, they would not be destroyed, there is nothing in the world that can not be destroyed, even a door made of diamonds will be broken by someone, let alone just a dark iron door? Want to sleep with one door? It's child's play!
"Kid, stick your finger out." At this door, the old patriarch looked a little excited.
"Grandpa, I'll do it myself." Knowing what the old patriarch wanted to do, I hurriedly spoke. I don't want to be cut by his wind blade again, and although he has a good grasp of the strength, who knows if there will be a miss? I don't want to see one of my fingers missing.
He drew his knife and drew a few drops of blood from his fingers and dripped them onto the door, and then the old patriarch asked me to follow him with those extremely awesome incantations, and suddenly the whole gate was glorious, and then there was a rumbling sound like a train passing by, and the extremely heavy gate was opened a crack!
I wanted to see through the crack in the door to see what was inside, but I didn't want to shoot a strong red light from the crack in the door, and in my eagerness, my eyes were pierced with tears. The door opened wider and wider, but the red light was not as strong as before, and I finally saw what was behind the door.
Behind the gate is a large platform, this platform is very vast, if you compare it with the cave hall before I entered this underground, the area of the cave hall is not even a tenth of this platform, the end of the platform may be a cliff, I don't know what is under the cliff, there is a strong red light scattered from there, reflecting the whole wide platform, dyeing everything behind the door with a layer of fiery red.
The door was only a little open and didn't move, but a little bit was enough for a big truck to pass through. Knowing that I could reach the living quarters of the Chiya people after passing through this gate, I wanted to rush in immediately, but in order not to irritate the old patriarch, I had to suppress this impulse, and honestly stayed behind the old patriarch, not daring to take a step forward.
The old patriarch seems to be in a hurry more than me, and he went in advance with a horse, and the speed is like a charge, and this old man is really, since he has brought me in, don't show like this, look at his hurried appearance, as if he wants to hide all the treasures before me.
As soon as I passed through the door, I immediately looked around nervously. I had finally reached the treasure of the Chiya, and now what awaited me was a mountain of riches, and my eyes narrowed at the thought of the huge amount of money I could get.
This is also a cave, and I don't know how vast this cave is in the belly of that mountain. I can't count how wide it is, but I think that the platform I'm standing on is only a tiny part of it, and this platform is like a grain of rice in a rice jar compared to this cave.
Surprised by the magnanimity of the place, I turned my attention to the platform again. There is nothing here, and the whole platform is very flat, like a big square. It's really strange, isn't this the living area of the Chiya people, why don't there be houses, or other things, except for the side that borders the door, the other three sides of the platform are cliffs, and the red light constantly scatters from under the cliff, is the Chiya people here? Looking at all this, I was confused.
The old patriarch ignored me who was in a daze, and walked quickly towards the cliff. This old man doesn't look like a person who wants to commit suicide, is there a way there? I hurriedly chased after him.
The platform was very large, but the old patriarch walked very fast, and we soon reached the edge of the platform, where the old patriarch stopped, stood on the edge of the platform, and looked straight over, but did not say a word. And I, for a long time, was attracted by what I saw, beyond the platform, there was an incomparably wide volcanic lake, or rather, this cave was a huge volcanic karst cave. I know that the platform I am on is already very large, but the space of this platform in this cave is just an inconspicuous stone. The boiling stream was tumbling underneath the platform, bubble after bubble, then popping and popping, then a thick stream of gas rushing out, and finally disappearing without a trace. It's strange that the heat emitted by such a large volcanic lake should be very strong, but I don't know if it's because the platform is too far away from the lake or because of the magic that I don't know about, I don't feel a trace of burning here, but a little bit of coolness. You can't feel the heat of the lava, but the light from the lava is transmitted unhindered, and this light illuminates this huge karst cave like day, and the tumbling lava is like fire, and all the things in the karst cave are branded with it, so that the whole cave is only a fiery red color, a bewitching color that is confusing.
What fascinated me was not the vastness of this place, nor the shock of the vast lava tumbling here, but the countless small islands floating in the cavern air. This kind of small island is big and small, the big one is like a mountain, the small one is like an ordinary stone table, and there is nothing to support them underneath, they are completely floating in this karst cave, like countless stars.
This kind of small island is called the Hanging Island, and on the top of the larger Hanging Island, most of them have houses, and in the open space where there are no houses, there are countless trees, and these plants get everything they need to grow by means of a principle that I don't know, and although there is no sunlight, they also grow lush and green. The houses on the hanging island look very good on the outside, and against the background of countless plants, they look even more ethereal and joyful, giving people the feeling of being in a fairyland.
The adjacent hanging islands are connected by paths, and the countless trails are like red ribbons that tie these scattered hanging islands together, so that all the hanging islands form a whole, and the Chiya people who live on them can also reach different hanging islands through these trails, so as to communicate with each other. The Chiya people are really amazing, and they make such magical and majestic things.
All the hanging islands are empty now, and the Chiya clan was slaughtered a hundred years ago, which is really puzzling, why did all the Chiya people run out? Not a single body was found here, so it can be seen that none of the Chiya were left here at the time of the massacre, what happened to them at that time that they had to move out of here?
The old patriarch stayed on the edge of the platform for a long time, and the water vapor slowly rose in his eyes, and the water vapor kept accumulating, and finally turned into two crystal teardrops and fell. Here where the old patriarch stands, there is a path leading to the hanging island, I want to run on the trail immediately, rush to the hanging island and loot it, but the old patriarch did not move, I dare not act in vain, who knows if there are traps on this path, I don't want to fall short at this last moment.
The old patriarch had finally had enough of his hangings here, and he straightened his clothes that didn't exist, and then set out on the path.
"Grandpa, where are we going?" The old patriarch took me around for a long time, passing by countless hanging islands, but did not stop at another hanging island, until I went to the deepest part of the hanging islands, I finally got impatient, so I opened my mouth and asked.
"Kid, didn't you say you wanted to see the treasures of our Chiya people? I'm taking you there right now! The place I am going to take you to has the most precious treasures of our Chiya people. The old patriarch said to me with a smile.
The most precious treasure, what is it, along the way, I also saw many valuable things, there are pure gold roofs, whole crystal grinding windows, agate tableware, large night pearl made of lighting... There are also a lot of precious stones and gold things, the Chiya people use these things very commonly, you can see them everywhere, they don't treat these things as treasures, then, what can be called treasures in their eyes, and what is the most precious treasure that the old patriarch said, looking at the back of the old patriarch, I remembered a story that I don't know when I read, it seems to be a person who went to an island, and this island is full of pearls, gold, and all kinds of precious stones. The man who went up to the island did a great thing for the king of the island, and the king gave the man a most precious thing in return for him, and at last the man got a very simple wooden basin. Now, in this place full of gold and jewels, the old patriarch of the Chiya gave me their most precious thing, could it be something like this!
"Grandpa, why can't I get into the house?" Thinking that I might go home empty-handed, I decided to take something to suppress my heart, not wanting these rooms without locking the door, but there seemed to be something invisible blocking me from entering, and the closer I got to it, the stronger the sense of obstruction, and I could no longer get closer to the slightest three steps outside the room.
"Kid, you can't get into these houses. Although we Chiya people don't have the habit of locking the door, we won't let others enter our house casually, we have a magic called 'open space matching belt', not people who are allowed to enter, it is impossible to approach, child, don't waste your efforts, everything in the house is mundane, there is no need to waste time here. The old patriarch shook his head and said.
It's disgusting, I'm a layman, I need those mundane things, these bullshit chiya, how can they have such a strange spell, but this spell works, it's better to look at a house than to have a watchdog? If it's not too hard, maybe I can learn it too? After learning it, my things will be guaranteed in the future.
"Grandpa, can I learn this kind of 'open space matching belt'?" I asked cautiously.
"It's not a very complicated magic, and the magic power required is not high, but it requires a strong ability to control the magic, I can tell you the method, but the poor magic power on your body, just to open the storage ring seems laborious, although this magic requires not much magic, but if you want to use this magic, it will take a long time to practice?" With enough magic power, you need to spend more time improving your magic control, do you think you need to spend so much time learning this magic? The old patriarch poured a basin of cold water on me mercilessly, but he said that I seemed to be very useless, which made my heart have a rebellious mentality, and the idea of fighting against the old patriarch rose, so he said: "Grandpa, I like this magic very much, grandpa, can you teach me?" ”
The old patriarch smiled slightly, and told me the formula, I don't know if the Chiya people are too smart, the old patriarch said that this so-called magic is not very complicated, the formula alone makes me a head two too, I listened to it, but I don't understand what it means, however, the system prompts that I have learned the magic of 'open space matching belt', which is really good in the game, it says that you understand it, and it doesn't ask if you really understand.
Along the way, the treasures of the Chia people made my eyes red, and I was extremely angry that all the treasures were protected by the strange magic of the Chiyas, I could only look at them but not touch them, looking at these glittering things, my heart was like being scratched by the paws of countless cats, and it was extremely uncomfortable. One thing after another, my heart kept cursing at the abominable Chiyas, whose extermination seemed so happy to me, and at the same time I was cursing myself for not learning magic myself. If I had studied magic, I would have been able to break through the magic confinement in one or two places by now.
"Grandpa, haven't we arrived yet?" In order not to let myself be angry, I took my eyes back with difficulty, thinking that I would soon see the most precious thing in their clan that the old patriarch said, I already had a hunch, even if the old patriarch didn't give me something like a wooden basin, but it would not be a treasure in my impression, and this time I might have to enter the treasure mountain empty-handed.
"Kid, that's it ahead." The old patriarch pointed to an empty hanging island road in front of him.
"Ahead?" I looked at the place the old patriarch was pointing, but I was astonished. At some point, we came to the middle of the Hanging Island. And now the hanging island in front of us is very different from the hanging island we saw before, it is the largest, among all the hanging islands here, the larger ones have houses, and the hanging islands of this scale in front of us, the houses are often built a lot, and the trees are often filled with the surface of the hanging island, but this hanging island, on it, there is only a small building like a temple, and other things, together with the trees, are not seen on this hanging island, and the whole hanging island seems a little empty and desolate. But these were not the reasons for my surprise, what made my eyes widen was the hanging island itself, its surface was actually made of incomparably expensive hedrons, those spars, all kinds of colors, red, orange, blue, green, yellow, indigo, purple, all the colors I could think of could be found on this hanging island. These dazzling gems are all covered like rocks on such a large hanging island, they seem to have always existed on this hanging island, if this is the case, then the whole hanging island is a large hedron. For such a large hanging island, all its gems weigh in tons of tons, and if it were to be sold, what a huge amount! Is it any wonder that the old patriarch did not want to delay on the road and went straight to it? With such large gems here, the things we saw along the way seemed as inconsequential and worthless as sand on the beach, and there was certainly no need to stay.
I suddenly became excited, is this what the old patriarch said about their most precious thing, it must be yes, such a large piece of gemstone hanging island made entirely of spars, what reason is there not the most precious thing of the Chiya clan? Moreover, such a whole jewel hanging island, the lovely and kind old patriarch grandfather has promised to give it to me, how wonderful this world is! How brilliant the sun is here, well, not the sun, but the light of the karst, and I suddenly realized how beautiful the karst that originally looked dazzling.
When I was thinking about how to sell this incomparably huge hanging island, the old patriarch led me to this incomparably beautiful hanging island, and then entered the temple, before I could see the face of the god in the temple, he opened a secret passage, this passage is leading to the inside of the hanging island, I touched both sides of the passage as I walked, they are all real gems, this hanging island, the inside is also made of spars, this hanging island, is it really completely made of spars?
"Hey, why is it a little cold in here? No, the cold air is coming from the hedrons, could it be that this is an extremely rare and valuable ice crystal in the "Taimeng" game? I haven't seen ice crystals, but I've only heard of them in the materials of the game "Taimeng", there is no picture of it on it, only some of its characteristics are mentioned, among them, cold is a very significant feature of this spar.
The further I went, the stronger the cold air in the passage became, and at the same time, I slowly noticed that the colors of the passage became more and more monolithic, and they changed from multicolored colors to mainly white, and the more white hedrons, the colder the passage became. This must be ice crystals, I was shivering with cold, but my heart was extremely hot, this time, I can't do it, so many ice crystals, as long as I get one or two pieces out, I don't have to worry about money for the rest of my life.
"Kid!" The old patriarch suddenly interrupted me, who was thinking nonsense, and I looked at him in astonishment, only to hear him say, "Child, please drop your blood on this ice crystal." ”
"Ice crystals? It's really ice crystals. I immediately looked around, and then I found myself in a hall-like basement at the end of the passage, with a very high and wide roof, and most of it was made of white cryolite. With so much cryolite, this basement was extremely cold, and as soon as my mind returned, my body immediately trembled involuntarily. The basement looked vast, but it was empty, there was nothing else but a crystal coffin in the middle of the basement, and it all gave me a very strange feeling, and I felt like I was shaking even more.
A transparent air shield suddenly surged around my body, just enough to cover the coffin made of ice crystals between me and the old patriarch, and then, I felt the cold being driven away from my body, this was the magic released by the old patriarch, I nodded to him gratefully, and then cut my fingers again, and the warm blood dripped on the ice crystal coffin. The white ice crystals seemed to be very bloody, and as soon as the red blood dripped onto the ice crystals, it was immediately melted by the ice crystals, and there was no indication that there was blood dripping on the ice crystals.
"Follow me, hiss......" The old patriarch began another spell when my first drop of blood melted into the ice crystal coffin, I don't know why the old patriarch asked for my blood every time, and every time he asked me to recite it, but with the experience of the first two times, I didn't hesitate to recite it. Under our spell, the ice crystals melted away as quickly as ice and snow roasted on a fire.
"What is this?" As the ice crystals melted, the things stored inside the ice crystal coffin were revealed, it was actually a person, a cute little girl, who was this little girl, what did she have to do with the Chiya people, why was she in the ice crystals? Why did the old patriarch use my blood to make her break the ice? Eh, such precious ice crystals have been melted by my blood, how much money can I exchange for such large ice crystals!
