"Huh~" Xue Ren and Meng Xiang returned to the passage of the Frozen City, Meng Xiang dropped the lever and the iron door slowly closed under the action of the mechanism.

"Let's go, go back to the Frozen City. Xue Ren said with a smile to Meng Xiang.

"Your Highness, you can now go back to the capital. Meng Xiang thought for a long time before he said to Xue Ren, "You can't learn anything here, I think His Majesty the King's purpose of sending you here has been achieved." ”

"Go back to the capital?

"They won't come again. Meng Xiang explained: "Your Highness, rest assured, that the alternating season of winter and spring has passed, and those beasts will not come again." ”

"Even if you say I can go back to the capital, I'm going to stay for a while. ”

"Why is it possible that His Highness still likes this place?" Meng Xiang asked with a smile, although the environment of this place is not very good, it is indeed that people can't help but like it. Because that's why he chose to stay in the first place.

"I'm afraid I'll never like it here, no wine, no beautiful women, and no warm bed. Xue Ren whispered, "Actually, there have been many nights in the past month that I have been frozen by the cold and can't sleep, but I miss the beauties in the capital who have a warm body temperature." ”

Meng Xiang was slightly stunned and laughed, maybe Xue Ren himself hadn't discovered his change, but although he had only followed behind for a short time, he felt from the bottom of his heart that he had changed a little differently than before.

At first, he thought that the king just wanted to send his precious son to this kind of place to sharpen his will, so that he could witness the bloodshed of the battlefield with his own eyes.

But he didn't want it to be, so it opened the kingly breath in Xue Ren's heart, and the door that had been sealed in the dust was finally broken through by the boiling sea.

Back in the cave, the two took off their armor, and a drop of melted ice water fell from the tip of the stalactite, which happened to fall on Xue Ren's face.

"It looks like I'm leaving, and even the cold stone has left me in tears. Xue Ren wiped the drops of water from his face

Meng Xiang just looked at him, "Then I won't disturb Your Highness, just let us know when you want to leave." ”

"Yes. Xue Ren hugged Meng Xiang vigorously, and then waved to him

"Anyway, pack your bags and we're leaving. Xue Ren lifted the tent, and the long-lost warmth instantly wrapped his whole body.

"Can we leave?"

General Meng Xiang said it was okay. Xue Ren pulled him up from the blanket, "But before that, I have to go somewhere." There are also some stories that I haven't listened to. ”

Xiangzuo looked at Xue Ren and always felt that he had become a little stranger at this time, and he couldn't see through it, but he vaguely seemed to be about to surrender to Xue Ren's feet at any time. Being his courtier is not something to be ashamed of

"Your Highness......"

"What?" Xue Ren asked curiously, "By the way, I haven't told you yet, what do you think is behind that Black Mountain?"

"It's snow, of course. "Is it the mountains?" and "It was not difficult for those beasts to survive in such a harsh environment, but it was precisely because of the harsh environment that they became as brutal as they are now.

"No, you would never have imagined" Xue Ren stared at Xiangzuo's eyes, "It's the sea!" he reached out and grabbed Xiangzuo's shoulder, "It's mentioned in ancient books, the sky that rolls flat on the ground, and the sea that can't be seen at a glance!"

"Hai?!" Xiang Xiang was also very surprised, "How is it possible...... For thousands of years, all the seas in the world have been sealed by winter ghosts...... How can it be. ”

Xiang Zō raised his head, in order to confirm the truth of the matter, "Your Highness, what you said is true?"

"Of course it's true, do you think I'm going to lie to you?"

"Of course not. Aizo looked down at the flames jumping in the fire.

"But in that case, do those beasts live in the sea, or do they swim, and there is a wider world beyond the sea?...... "He kept thinking to the left, he really couldn't understand that there could be a vast ocean in this snowfield......

"Xiangzuo!" Xue Ren let go of Xiangzuo's shoulder, and his expression began to become serious in vain.

"Your Highness?" Xiang Zhi didn't know what Xue Ren was going to say.

"Are you willing, assist me, help my rich and powerful people to form an army, board the warship built by the craftsmen in the starry night during your lifetime, and cross the sea to enter the continent on the other side that the world never knew about, and eradicate the demons!"

He felt a hot fire burning in his chest, the flames boiling, and his blood was transmitted throughout his body.

When the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say anything, as if he was stuck by something.

"You are willing to assist me like the king of Nara, no matter what I do wrong, you will be the first to stand up and correct my mistakes in time. Even if you are going to be punished for it that I don't understand!"

"I ......"

"Minister......

The opposite eye socket also warmed up, and the blood boiled the water in his eyes, turning into tears and flowing out.

"The minister will work hard and swear to the death!"

Meng Xiang returned to his camp, where Xiao Fang was already waiting.

"Your Highness, you can leave. ”

"I've already told him. Meng Xiang's expression looked somewhat unnatural in Xiao Fang's eyes.

"What? What danger have you encountered in the snowfield? Your Highness had an accident?" Xiao Fang asked what he could think of, and he thought that after that snowfield there would only be a snowfield, and there lived those ferocious beasts.

"It's worse than that. Meng Xiang looked at the flames in front of him by the fire, his body had never felt cold since just now, but now it was suddenly as cold as a burned-out wooden stick.

"Your Highness is leaving, and this time it is Your Highness who is leaving. Wait for the next time I will not be here, but our King of Xinghua, a new king who is supreme and swallows the sea!"

Xiao Fang frowned, "Where have you been?"

Meng Xiang shook his head

"Stone Waste?"

Still shaking his head

"You can't have climbed the Black Mountain, have you, you actually took His Highness to such a dangerous place, in case ......"

Meng Xiang raised his head and looked at Xiao Fang

"What's wrong with you?"

"His Highness took me over the Black Mountain and saw a clear blue sea. More beautiful than any sapphire I've ever seen, a fish as big as half a mountain mountain was showing its head in the sea a few kilometers away. I will never forget ......"

"The sea, are you crazy! How could there be a sea after Montenegro!"

"But that's what I saw with my own eyes......"
