Three days later.

The apricot grove incident has come to an end.

Xixia Yipintang did not achieve any benefits, and the group of people who came was almost wiped out in the apricot forest, although they also took a lot of beggar disciples, but with the help of Qiao Feng and others, they still saved a lot of Jianghu people.

On the contrary, the people of Yipintang ended up being attacked by people back and forth, and they ended up calculating, except for a certain high-level who finally escaped with his life under the desperate protection of his subordinates. But in the face of the pursuit of the beggar gang and others under the leadership of Qiao Feng, I am afraid that the final result will not be surprising.

As for the other people present, they don't know what the outcome was, but the bad situation that day is still difficult to guess in someone's mind.

A wooded area.

The sound of the stream in this slightly silent season is quite crisp and refreshing.

Ah Zhu stood quietly beside him, frowning and pondering. As Murong Fu's maid, she is not as weak as Ah Bi, she is stubborn and strong, but at this moment, she is still full of worries about the safety of Ah Bi and Miss Wang and others.

So much so that a set of men's clothes folded in her arms couldn't help but be pinched and wrinkled. And the things in the clothes, such as scrolls or something, Azhu didn't look at them.

That's when it happened.

A little girl's crisp laughter like a silver bell came from the pool above, and the voice said—

"Wow!"

"Master Childe!"

"Master Childe, the fish is already cooked!"

Hearing this, Ah Zhu, who was distracted, came back to his senses, and couldn't help but smile when he heard this crisp shout, but after the smile, his face turned to worry. As a move in the apricot forest to reach out to block Tan Po's slap on her, Azhu had a good impression of Yue Yuan.

In addition, she was saved this time, and the good impression deepened again. If you recall that in Swallow Dock, after Yue Yuan faintly stood in front of him and blocked the Great Wheel Ming King Jiu Mozhi, this impression is getting better and better.

This worry is a problem that arises in Yue Yuan.

"I don't know how to solve it!"

As Murong Fu's maid. Ah Zhu is also well-informed in martial arts, but when there is a situation like Yue Yuan, this is the first time she has seen it.

As the person who Ah Zhu was talking about in his heart, Yue Yuan was buried in this secluded pool composed of mountain streams at this moment.

Because the weather is going to be cold, and because of the mountain spring, this stream is a little colder than most people think, but at this moment, the mountain stream here has turned into a rare hot spring.

The little girl was wearing a small belly pocket at the moment, playing barefoot on the shore, and in her hand she was holding a fish with a white belly facing the sky, and Yue Yuan, who was only showing a trace of white hair in the middle of the water, shouted crisply.

"It's just not delicious!"

I tore a piece of fish and stuffed it in my mouth and tasted it. The little girl was quite dissatisfied with its taste, there was no salt and no other condiments, and the fish was completely boiled.

Not only that, but there were already a lot of fish floating on the water with their white bellies in the secluded pool in front of them, constantly steaming, and at a glance, they knew that these fish were all boiled to death.

Half a day.

Yue Yuan, who had been in the water, finally put his head out of it, sighed, and his eyes fell on the little girl on the shore. The feeling of wanting to come down and play but not daring looks cute.

Yue Yuan knew that the little girl had been boiled out of the water, which was fine, but the longer Yue Yuan stayed in it, the hotter the temperature on the surface of the water became. finally let the little girl out of the pool.

“……”

Looking at the little girl's gaze, Yue Yuan glanced at the bubbling pool again, and Yue Yuan realized that he was still underestimating what kind of power the Long Yuan Explosion that could not be suppressed would be.

The heat emitted boiled a pool of flowing water into boiling water.

If it weren't for his own meridians, he would have already undergone the transformation of He's ability. In addition, he has cultivated the longevity formula and transformed the Northern Spiritual Skill, otherwise the manic power of the Dragon Yuan in this body still cannot be suppressed. People in general. I'm afraid that I have already been killed by this force.

Taking a deep breath, Yue Yuan's whole person slowly stood up, and when the lower half of his body was about to come out of the water, Yue Yuan found that the little girl's eyes were staring at her body up and down.

"Miss Azhu!"

Seeing this, Yue Yuan stopped getting up and said to Ah Zhu outside the woods, "Please also take the little girl out...... If you go on like this, the female apprentice will become a female hooligan! Of course, this last sentence was self-talk, and no one heard it.

Ah Zhu, who was standing outside, was stunned when he heard this, and then walked in with a crimson face, but after seeing Yue Yuan's whole person submerged in the water again, he was not shy. After glancing at the bubbling stream, Azhu put aside the clothes in his hand, picked up the little girl, and then took her out.

Rise.

As soon as the water stains on the naked body came out of the water, they were steamed into water vapor and dissipated.

When Yue Yuan stepped on the shore, his body had become clean.

After putting on his clothes, Yue Yuan walked out.

Outside.

The little girl has already dressed under Azhu's care, and she is no longer a belly pocket.

After seeing Yue Yuan's already safe appearance, Ah Zhu thought about it and couldn't help but ask, "Gongzi Yue, are you okay with this situation?" ”

"It can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause!"

"There isn't enough water in the stream!"

Shaking his head, without the slightest fear on his face, he said his current situation, raised his hand, glanced at the somewhat pale skin that had been soaked, Yue Yuan said indifferently: "This time, I'm afraid I can only hold on for two days!" ”

Two days?

Ah Zhu's face couldn't help but sink when he heard this, three days ago, Yue Yuan had already come here like this, and he was able to hold out for three days last time, but now...... But she could only hold out for two days, which was undoubtedly another case of the Huafa man in front of her.

"That ......"

"I need ten thousand years of cold ice to hedge against the scorching true qi in my body. Therefore, I want to go west, and I ask Miss Azhu to accompany me! ”

Interrupting Ah Zhu's question, Yue Yuan knew what the other party wanted to ask, and while answering, Yue Yuan did not forget to send out his own invitation.

"Ahh

Ah Zhu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and looked at Yue Yuan in amazement. After staring at each other for a long time, Azhu was blushing a little. Avoided his gaze, his eyes fell on the little girl standing next to him, and the situation of the young man in the heart was so strict, he couldn't take care of the little girl, so ...... I helped take care of it myself, to thank the other party for their help before.

Well, that's it!

After spinning his mind in his heart, Azhu answered.

Hearing this, Yue Yuan smiled with satisfaction.

Next, on the way to the west. Ah Zhu carefully inquired about the solution.

"Son-in-law, you said that you will ...... with ten thousand years of cold ice"

"Yes!"

"Wanzai Cold Ice, only Wanzai Hanbing can cooperate with my True Qi to hedge and absorb the scorching True Qi in my body, and the rest is not enough! And it's too small to work, I need to make it into a big bed and practice cross-legged to absorb the heat! ”

Hearing this, Azhu's eyes were full of confusion. However, seeing the scene where Yue Yuan boiled the lake water by herself, she also knew that the number was too small and she was afraid that it would not be enough, but if the number was too large, how could it be enough for the three of them?

Come to think of it. Ah Zhu asked the doubts in his heart.

"People?"

"Hah! Don't worry, Miss Azhu! ”

"This westward journey, there will be a sect to help!"

When he said this, Yue Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He never thought that he would go to find the Loose Sect this time, and he would actually make this preparation.

The so-called impermanence of the world is just like that.

"That's right!"

"Although I have a habit of wanting Miss Azhu to help carry the sword or something, but there is no sword at the moment...... Help with the knife! ”

"Huh?!"

took the small flying knife handed over by Yue Yuan. Ah Zhu was confused for a while, this knife is too small, right?

Side.

The little girl who was holding Azhu's hand was holding her head high, looking to the west, and she was also interested in that strange place.

Meanwhile.

Tien Shan.

Ethereal Peak.

Where the Vulture Palace is located.

The Ethereal Peak is not high in the Tien Shan Mountains, and unlike other peaks that are covered with snow and ice, it is more foggy here.

But that doesn't mean it's hotter than the rest of the world, it's not hotter than the snow-covered peaks. It's just because of the topography that there is little snow here. Its temperature can be known from the cold spring of the snow-capped mountain on the ethereal peak.

Not only that, because the Tianshan Mountains are rich in snow lotus.

Starting from the Ethereal Peak Vulture Palace, you can collect snow lotus by climbing to the top of the snowy mountain, which is of course a difficult and dangerous road. Ordinary people will not take this route, and they do not dare to take this route. It can be said that the snow lotus here is more of a private property belonging to the Vulture Palace.

Domineering, that's what makes it special.

At this time, in the Vulture Palace of the Ethereal Peak, there were already waves surging, and the originally stable situation had already brought fire.

The cold of the Ethereal Peak could not drown out the sky-high anger of the people below the mountain.

This fire seems to be about to completely burn this mountain.

Vulture Palace.

Basilica.

In the palace master's backyard.

The things left in the yard are very simple, except for the simple stone tables and chairs, there are no flowers and plants planted in the yard. After all, there aren't many things that will survive in this cold place.

And here, there is only one plant planted, and that is the plum blossom.

At this moment.

There was no one in the yard, except for a girl about seven years old, who was walking in the yard with her hands on her hands, looking at the plum branches that were still bare.

The girl looks delicate and looks extremely cute.

Bend over to water.

Lifting a small bucket with great effort, and carrying it under the tree at a crooked angle, the girl scooped spoonful by spoonful of snow spring water and poured it into the roots of the plum tree, not caring whether the water was suitable or not, but doing her own thing little by little with her own movements.

The picture is tranquil and beautiful. (To be continued......)
