Chapter 378: Cold Moon Hibiscus
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
The crisp sound kept coming from the snow.
It's the sound of boots stepping into the thick snow and pulling out and stepping in again, and the sound goes on and on, and it makes people feel a sense of comfort in their hearts, as if there is a small brush brushing your itch just right.
But when many pairs of boots trampled in the snow in a disorderly manner, the feeling of comfort vanished, leaving only a frowning noisy irritability.
It's like the sound coming from a small col in a snowy ridge at this moment.
A team of nine people was slowly advancing through the blizzard in this col.
The nine men were all dressed in thick white cotton coats, six of them wearing a cotton coat of one style, which looked like some kind of uniform, and they wore lop-eared cotton hats of the same standard on their heads, and each carried a long white sheath knife in their hands.
At this time, the two of them were in front, two in the back, one on the left, and one on the right, surrounding a man and a woman in the middle.
Judging by their straight figures, their wary glances around them, and their right hands, which were ready to draw their swords at any time, it was obvious that they belonged to the male and female guards.
The man and the woman in the middle, though also dressed in white cotton clothes, were obviously much more elaborate, and they were dressed in cloaks made of the fur of some strange animal, on which Blizzard could not stay, and at the slightest touch they rolled down the cloak into the snow, and they wore hats of the same material on their heads.
In the heavy snow, these two people didn't get a piece of snow on them, which is indeed a magical thing.
And the six people who were guarding them and the man who led the way in front of them were not treated so well, although with their strength, it was very easy to keep the snowflakes from getting on their bodies in a short period of time, but it was an extremely stupid thing to spend precious energy in this dangerous northern realm to stop the snowflakes from falling on them.
The person who understood this truth the most was the man in front of him who led the way.
He didn't spend a lot of energy like the six guards and kept on his guard all the time, nor did he use the light-weight exercises to keep his legs from getting bogged down in the snow, like the man and the woman in the middle.
His forward figure looked very casual, his steps were relaxed, a pair of wide-soled boots with slightly curled edges made him not have to worry about when his feet suddenly fell into the snow and couldn't pull them out, he was also very vigilant, but not the kind of solemn vigilance of the whole body, he mainly relied on his sharp eyes, which were like a pair of eagle eyes, keenly paying attention to any small changes in the snow.
It can be seen that this is a veteran who has lived in the snow for many years.
At this time, he also heard the question of the young man in the middle of the line.
Listening to the doubts revealed in the man's words, the leading man secretly shook his head in his heart and said: "If it weren't for the fact that you are the second son of the Feng family, just by virtue of your words, I would immediately pull out my legs and leave, leaving you to fend for yourself in this snowy realm." ”
You must know that the man who led the way was known as the existence of the "Northern Frontier", born here, grew up here, and followed his father around in this cold land since he was a child.
Although he is only twenty-five years old now, when it comes to understanding the realm of the north, there are really not many people who can match him, and although he does not know this land well, he can be said to know a lot. 139
The reason why he led the way for the second son of the Feng family today was mainly to look at the face of the Feng family, to be precise, on the face of the eldest son of the Feng family.
The Feng family is just an ordinary second-rate demon slayer family, and its strength is not outstanding, but there is a peerless figure - Feng Wuxi.
This Feng Wuxian has shown an incomparably terrifying cultivation talent since he was a child, and he is a true demon-level cultivation genius, and later he was favored by the contemporary Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master Hall and accepted as a personal disciple.
Although this Feng Wuxian is only twenty-seven or eighteen years old now, his strength has reached the peak of the third order, and he is only one step away from the heavenly position.
Everyone was extremely sure that he would be able to step into the heavenly position, but they didn't know when he would take this step.
If he can achieve the heavenly position before the age of thirty, then the future is really limitless, and he may even be able to hope for the great heavenly position in the future.
Therefore, this Feng Wuxian is also known as the strongest of the younger generation in the demon subjugation and demon eradication forces, and is even faintly regarded as the internal successor of the Heavenly Master Hall.
And the man in front of him is the younger brother of Feng Wuxi, and his identity is naturally rising, and it is not something that he can offend as a small "northern border".
However, I heard that there has been a peerless figure in the Heavenly Master Hall recently, and she is still a woman from a small town, her cultivation talent is not inferior to Feng Wuxian in the slightest, and she is also the top thunder attribute physique that is most suitable for the Heavenly Master Hall's exercises.
I don't know if this news is true or not, if it is true, then Feng Wuxi's position may be challenged.
Although so much information flashed in his mind, the mouth of the man leading the way replied loudly: "Brother Feng, don't worry, I am very familiar with this area, and I will definitely not take the wrong place, as long as the address you provide is correct, then I will definitely be able to bring you there safely." ”
"Don't worry, you can't get the wrong address." The man surnamed Feng reached out and touched his nose, and said quite proudly, "That's what my brother told me, if he hadn't been able to get out of his body now, he would have come to pick up the cold moon hibiscus in person this time." ”
Hearing him mention his brother's name, the people around him unconsciously turned grim, obviously very touched by this name.
And the woman beside him directly pulled his sleeve and asked in a coquettish voice, "Cousin, what have you been busy with lately?" Can't even participate in such an important event as collecting the Cold Moon Hibiscus in person? ”
"This ......" Hearing the woman's words, the man surnamed Feng had a stunned face, and then said with some hesitation, "Cousin Wushuang, this is the secret of the Heavenly Master Hall, I can't tell you, but don't worry, although my brother can't come, but the six Shuofeng Guards he sent to help us can definitely help us get rid of the Cold Needle Dryad and win the Cold Moon Hibiscus!" ”
"Oh." Hearing that her cousin didn't answer her question directly, the woman named Wushuang answered in some disappointment.
Looking at the woman's lost appearance, the man surnamed Feng couldn't help but open his mouth, but then he suddenly thought of something, and slowly closed his mouth again, and at the same time, a thick hesitation rose on his face, obviously struggling between the beauty and his brother's entrustment.
At this moment, the leading man who was walking in the front suddenly stopped, and a pair of eyes looked ahead vigilantly, and Shuo Fengwei, who was walking behind him with a strength of up to the third order, pressed his right hand on the hilt of the knife even more, and a loud shout sounded in his mouth: "What person? ”
In the midst of the loud cheers, everyone stopped, and the six Shuo Feng guards instantly surrounded the man surnamed Feng and protected him, and the men and women also showed nervous expressions on their faces.
Ahead, a white figure was swaying in the snowflakes, slowly walking towards them like a snow elf.
