Chapter 561: Starlight Unicorn (2)
The second day of the Phantom Beast Journey began like this, according to the instructions of the Phantom Beast Guide, if my progress is normal, I should arrive at the Phantom Beast Holy Garden in 9 days, and on the 10th day, which is the day of the autumn solstice, enter the Phantom Beast Holy Garden.
When I was in the Holy See, my teacher said that on the day of the autumn solstice, the day is as long as the night, and at noon on the autumn solstice every five years, the white sun and the black sun in the sky will coincide.
I heard from the teacher that he would arrange for me to participate in the Phantom Beast Trial, so I flipped through a lot of books, and finally I finally knew why I only had one chance to enter the Phantom Beast Sacred Garden every 5 years. Come to think of it, there is a huge magic array outside the Phantom Beast Sacred Garden, and most of the magic in the world is related to the white sun or the black sun, such as the divine magic I practiced, if there is a white sun, the effect will be much better. And some elven magic is related to the black sun. The magic power of the magic array comes from the stars in the sky, and a good magic array can often use the magic power of the white sun and the black sun to bless the guardian power at the same time. However, when the white sun and the black sun completely coincide, the power between the stars is lost, and the magic array will produce chaos, of course, this chaos is very rare, only 10 minutes in 5 years, which is basically negligible. At this time, you can enter the Phantom Beast Sacred Garden.
The road during the day is still very easy to walk, according to the Phantom Beast Guide, the first two days are the best to walk, because all the distance in these two days is between 2000 ~ 3500 meters above sea level, although you can't ride a horse, but mainly grasslands and forest areas, as long as it doesn't rain, it won't be too difficult to walk, and autumn is the season of little rain.
However, when I rested in the evening, I did see traces of snow not far away, like a white line, with white and green above and pure green below. This is probably where the name Snow Line comes from.
At night, when the bonfire was raised, I thought of Daqingshan again, heh, thinking that when I went down the mountain, I rode the fire phoenix to see him, he would definitely be very envious, his little green child could not ride yet. By the way, the green dragon and the red phoenix...... There is really a smell of safflower and green leaves.
Go to bed early and never dream again at night.
On the eighth day of January in the autumn of the 2nd year of the magic calendar, it is sunny and the mood is sunny
After climbing the snow line, the air suddenly turned cold, thanks to the supply points that had prepared suitable cotton clothes.
The green grass under your feet is covered with snow or frost, and it is creaking when you step on it, and the road is not very slippery, and the walking sticks for climbing prepared at the supply point seem to be of little use for the time being.
When I looked up, it was snow-white, with only the occasional greenery.
Fire Phoenix, by the way, I forgot to write it yesterday, I gave it a nice name - Huo'er, it's not the name that Xueda Qingshan gave to Lu'er, I came up with it myself. It was lazy, and tried to fall to the ground in the middle, but when it found that the ground was cold, it immediately flew up, and jumped from the left shoulder to the right shoulder, and then jumped on my head. It's so heavy, at least 20 pounds.
If you're so naughty, I'll chop you up and boil the soup and drink it.
There was a mountain in front of me, a mountain on the left, a mountain on the right, and when I looked back, it was still a mountain.
Everything in front of me was white, and I couldn't open my eyes at all. Luckily, each campsite provides a kind of brown crystal glasses that can be fixed to the eyes, so that the outside world is all brown.
Oh, what's even more interesting is that large and small crystal glasses have been specially prepared for various phantom beasts, but there is no phoenix, and it is estimated that there is no phoenix to suffer over the years. I picked out a pair of glasses that looked like a fire from the vulture's glasses and reluctantly put it on.
Hey, it seemed to be very reluctant at first, scratching and scratching with its little paws, but then it got used to it.
In the process of walking, I also discovered one of the benefits of the fire, its body is hot, I guess this is why it is called the fire phoenix, when I sleep at night, it feels like a small stove to hold it.
I dreamed about that damn wood again last night.
On January 12, the 2nd year of the magic calendar, there was a blizzard, and the mood was cloudy and rainy
When I woke up in the morning, I found that it was snowing in the sky and the wind was starting to blow.
According to the journey, I only need to walk 8 miles of mountain road today to reach the top of the mountain.
But in a snowstorm, it's hard to take a step.
In the wind and snow, you can't see anything a few steps away, but fortunately, since the day before yesterday, all the road signs have been connected. This way you won't get lost in a snowstorm because you can't find the road signs.
I clung to the fire, and the howling wind blew my cloak into the air, and it was as if I was about to be blown away.
After more than half an hour later than scheduled, I finally found today's camping site behind a leeward cliff, which is already 5,120 meters above sea level, according to the Phantom Beast Instructions. This is not the main peak, otherwise the main peak of more than 7,000 meters is estimated to be impossible to climb in two months.
The wind was so strong that there was no way to make a fire outside, so I had to use the only magical energy I had at the camp to make some hot meals and eat them. I can't sleep at night, the wind outside is like in my ears, and the lack of oxygen is very strong, breathing is very difficult, the fire reaction is okay, it shouldn't be a big problem.
Now I envy the knights who choose the snow wolf and the black horse, this kind of weather is nothing to these two phantom beasts, they can even help the knights to move forward together, I think, this is the most basic application of the doctrine of class restraint and the doctrine of terrain blessing.
By the way, I also saw some terrible things during the day, and in a short distance from the top of the mountain, I saw several corpses, two of which were phantom beasts, all of which had rotted, as if they were sweaty and bloody, and one was human, looking like a phantom beast knight's, and there was a small phantom beast's corpse pressed under his body.
I've heard for a long time that the path of the Phantom Beast Trial is made of the bones of the Phantom Beast Knight and the Phantom Beast, alas...... Ask His Highness the God of Light to shelter them and let their souls live forever.
I don't know what happened to Sister Yushang?
On January 14, the 2nd year of the magic calendar, it was snowy and the mood was cloudy
According to the Phantom Beast Instructions, from today onwards, if you encounter other people or animals, there will be no problem, because in the most difficult days of the past, all Phantom Beasts and Knights should establish a blood bond. Indeed, after a few days of traveling, Huo'er was clearly able to understand most of what I meant.
It's always been downhill, and the road is steep.
The fire loved it, and it used to fly up from my shoulder, glide for a distance, wait for me, and when I got underneath it, it flew up again and glided into my arms. Sometimes he just flew to a tree very naughtily, tilted his head to see me shouting on the ground, and seemed to be very proud, this idiot, don't you know that the priest's department has to learn the art of floating? I still need to fly up and catch it. After a few times, it was honest and no longer dared to be naughty with me.
At first, I was worried that it wouldn't break, but then I found out that this guy was very clever, and it was probably not easy to break it.
I remembered what Da Qingshan told me about how Uncle Chi Hanfeng trained Lu'er, and it seems that his method is quite good. I should also turn the fire ......
By the way, dreaming of that big wood again, really, it's a nightmare......
On January 15, the 2nd year of the magic calendar, it was sunny and the mood was fine
It was already dark when we set up camp last night, so I didn't see the beauty in front of me.
When I woke up in the morning, the first thing I felt when I got out of the tent was: Wow, it's beautiful.
The place where I stood was the snow line, and below the snow line was a huge valley, and the green grass in the valley was often red, and it was probably full of flowers. The tall spruce trees are thick, and in the depths of the spruce forest, colorful lights are shot from time to time, and it must be the legendary Phantom Beast Sacred Garden.
