Chapter 13: Guarding the Barrier
The four of them landed safely at the bottom of the valley, with the experience of flying over the sea of fire last night, coming down from a high altitude, Xu Sisi was quite calm, but Qing Xuan was so frightened that he couldn't do it, his head was full of white hair and beard, and he stuffed Yunfeng with a mouth and didn't know it, and sighed in his heart that he was old, and he was about to enter the ground, and he followed a group of juniors to toss blindly, and he hugged Yunfeng with his hands and feet, which made the other party's head jump.
Seeing this scene, Xu Sisi couldn't help laughing, the depression in Yun Xueshen's heart was rarely dispersed, and he stepped forward to pick up Qingxuan and rescue Yun Feng, and the four of them looked around.
The whole valley floor was also affected by the ice, and the surrounding woods were pressed with a thick layer of snow, and the place where they now settled was the river in the canyon, which formed a thick layer of ice, and looked intently under the ice, the ice was about three feet thick, and the water below flowed quietly.
"We've got to break the ice to get down." Yun Xueshen said.
"I'll come." Yunfeng motioned for the three of them to step back, and then slapped two palms at the ice.
The mountains shook for a while, and the snow piled up on the surrounding canyons fell, and a few cracks broke out in the stressed ice layer at first, and before the clouds and wind could make up for a few more palms, they quickly combined and returned to their original state.
Yun Xueshen noticed that the ice under their feet had become thicker by this blow, so that they could still faintly see the underground river, but now they couldn't see clearly.
It seems that the ice of Fantian Seal has not completely subsided, but has only weakened temporarily, and it can no longer be alarmed.
"I'll come," Yun Xueshen stopped Yun Feng and said, "You take a breath, hold your breath, I'll take you out." "Last night's injury has been recuperating for a few hours, and it should be okay to take the three of them across the dark river.
"Big brother, it's too dangerous for you to take the three of us, I don't know how long the underground undercurrent is, just by yourself, you can easily have an accident because of the loss of temperature on the body surface."
"It doesn't matter, with your words, my eldest brother's heart will be warm for a long time." He smiled, because of the sincere care in Yun Feng's words, Father Yun's lonely and cold heart warmed a lot because he wanted to expel him from the Yunhai Immortal Gate.
Moreover, he also has his own reliance on such requests.
originated from his innate exercises, but because of Father Yun's instructions, he never showed his exercises in front of others.
He pinched the seal in his hand, his true qi was running all over his body, and a transparent frost flower slowly bloomed from behind him, and the huge flower leaves wrapped the three of them, and the next second he took the three of them to break through the ice and sink to the bottom.
The underwater world was dark and silent, and several people only felt that the water around them was rapidly receding, and when the remaining oxygen in their lungs was about to run out, they finally came out of the dark river.
The sun was just right outside, the breeze was not dry, and the cloud wind pulled Qing Xuan out of the water and wiped the water on his face.
"Where's Big Brother? Why didn't the big brother come up? He looked around, but there was no trace of the other two, and he couldn't help but get anxious, "I knew, I knew, something would definitely happen like this, big brother, where are you, big brother?!" ”
sent Qing Xuan to the shore, and was about to go into the water to find the two of them, when he saw a bubble in the center of the lake, and Xu Sisi pulled Yun Xue Shen out.
"Come and help!" She helped Yun Xueshen to flutter in the water, trying to stabilize the balance of the two bodies.
"Big brother! Eldest brother! ”
Yunfeng swam over with his hands and feet, and pulled the two of them ashore.
The group of three dragged them ashore, Xu Sisi rubbed his arms, pulled Qingxuan, and said, "Come out of the water and die of cold, let's go pick up some firewood and come back." ”
"Then they ......"
"Oops, let them rest!" She pursed her lips and smiled, pulled Qing Xuan and walked away.
Coming out of the river, the little girl's thickened eyebrows dressed as men were washed to reveal the original curved appearance, and the deliberately blackened cheeks revealed the porcelain white tender color below with the dripping water droplets, and under the background of the bright red rubies between the foreheads, the eyebrows and eyes were crooked, the lips were red and the teeth were white, and they were as beautiful as the first buds just pulled out of the willow branches in spring.
Qing Xuan looked at her, and then at Yun Xue Shen who was sitting and resting, Yun Feng was holding his hand and was crossing the internal force, which made his pale face a lot better.
The little old man smiled, turned around and went to collect firewood.
When the two came back, they also brought some sweet wild fruits back by the way, and after drying their clothes, Yunfeng took out a bamboo slip and surrounded his four heads together to identify the location on the map.
"We're out of the first layer of enchantment now, and if we go this way, we'll be able to get out of the second layer of enchantment." Yun Xueshen pointed in one direction.
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up." Before he finished speaking, Xu Sisi couldn't sit still anymore, and he was about to leave.
It's been so long since she came out, and the family is afraid that they will die of worry.
"What's the hurry, I haven't even finished reading the map." Yun Feng shouted from behind, and seeing that the two had already gone a little far, he had to tighten the bamboo slip in his arms and hurry up to follow.
The four of them walked forward in the direction they had just determined, and the further they went, the denser the jungle became, with bushes and vines blocking the way on both sides, and after a while, a sand table appeared in front of them.
At a glance, the whole sand table is square, about ten zhang long and wide, forming a huge chessboard, each chess piece on the chessboard is made of jade, and it glows with a faint cold light in the daylight.
This is not any kind of chess that you see every day, it is not black and white Go, nor is it Chuhe chess, all the chess pieces are carved into the appearance of humans and war horses, equipped with weapons and equipment, densely and orderly displayed on the chessboard, at a glance, I can't count how many there are for a while.
All the chess pieces were life-size, and at this time, Mo Li was fighting on the chessboard, with his back to everyone, as if he was guarding the Yunhai Immortal Gate behind him.
"This is the second layer of the Guardian Barrier?" Yunfeng sighed.
"This is a puppet made by the ancestors of the Yun clan by condensing the power of the whole clan, each puppet is injected with spiritual power, and then the entire formation, that is, this sand table is assisted, but it is a line of defense to protect the Yunhai Immortal Gate, the old man, I still heard the old man in the family mention it when I was a child, but I didn't expect it to really exist." Qing Xuan stroked his beard and said.
When he was a child, it was more than 600 years ago.
"So powerful?" Xu Sisi exclaimed, she really experienced all kinds of strange things one day and one night.
"Look there, if it's a second-tier enchantment." Yun Xueshen was extremely far away, and he pointed to the end of the chessboard and beckoned Yun Feng.
On the other side of the sand table, a transparent screen looms, showing a faint light under the refraction of the sun.
"That's it." Yun Feng nodded, feeling relieved in his heart, he didn't expect this trip to be relatively smooth.
"Then I'll go first, old man." Qing Xuan threw his beard on his shoulder, raised his foot and stepped on the chessboard, and walked forward along the gap between the humanoid chess pieces, playing with his heart from time to time, touching the hands of the humanoid chess pieces here, and patting the heads of the war horse chess pieces over there.
"I'm second, I'm second." Xu Sisi's eyes were hot, and he stepped on the chessboard before the brothers.
Being in it, and the feeling of watching the chess pieces under the chessboard is very different, she looks around with novelty in her eyes, as if entering a new world, there is a chess piece holding a long sword standing next to her, the face is vividly depicted, her eyes are looking straight ahead, her expression is resolute, the long sword is held in front of her, and the war horse is standing quietly beside her.
A desolate feeling came, and Xu Sisi felt that what he was in front of him was not a chess piece, but a swordsman guarding his homeland.
She couldn't help but touch the swordsman's arm, the tentacles were cold and hard.
Not really, it's stone.
"Come up." She turned around and waved at the two brothers.
The swordsman behind her, after being touched by her fingers, seemed to be injected with vitality, emitting a slight movement, his fingers moved slightly, his eyes blinked, he turned his head, looked at Xu Sisi, and behind her, he waved the long sword in his hand at her.
