Flattered to take the roast rabbit leg from Xiao Mozhu's hand, Pu Xueying glanced at Xi Ziqian next to her embarrassedly, although Pu Xueying herself also likes small animals, but she can't refuse kindness, she doesn't know what to do with the roast rabbit leg.

"After a while, it's already cold, so roast it over the fire." Xiao Mozhu reminded.

"Oh!" Pu Xueying nodded, obediently brought the rabbit leg close to the floating flame, and roasted it intently.

All of a sudden, there was a strange smell in the cave, and the smell of burnt food mixed with the aroma of meat was not the smell of any delicacies.

On the cold snow-capped mountains, in the bright caves, biting the roasted wild fruits, feeling the warmth of the flames, and holding the barbecue in your hands, although it is a little charred, it is really a pleasure......

"Hah, it's so fragrant!"

Xi Ziqian tore off the burnt meat, tasted the hind legs of another roast rabbit, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and praised selflessly.

You've forgotten what you just said!

Xiao Mozhu and Du Hanyun couldn't help but think so, but they didn't say it.

Ice and snow cover the top, the cold wind howls, and as the sky becomes darker, it gets colder on the Snow Refining Peak.

There were no warm rooms, comfortable soft beds, steaming hot water and fragrant dinners, and a group of people hid in the caves, waiting for the night to come.

The dream tapir slept in the corner, and there was probably no sound to wake it up.

Sitting around the flames, several people were in a daze, all silent.

The first night of coming to Xuelian Peak was approaching, and they were barely satisfied with roast rabbits and wild fruits without any seasoning, and Xiao Mozhu and the others had different ideas.

"It's cold and tired, and I have to sleep in this dirty cave, it's so uncomfortable, I thought there was at least a wooden hut or something, how can I stay in such conditions?" Xi Ziqian looked at the flames with blank eyes, and said listlessly.

"It's pretty much what I thought, but it's nice to have a cave to sit in." Xiao Mozhu said.

Looking over in surprise, Du Hanyun asked, "How difficult is the cultivation you imagined?" ”

Shaking his head, Xiao Mozhu said, "It's useless to discuss this, just improve your cultivation." ”

"That's the case, it's better to be strict with yourself than to practice while enjoying yourself, like playing at home." Du Hanyun nodded and acknowledged Xiao Mozhu's statement.

"Don't complain!"

Xiaoice said a word at this time, and the crisp voice made the four people suddenly refresh and look at her.

After looking at the young four people, Xiaoice said slowly, "Actually, I can see that Old Man Zhou is quite happy, and he is not so strict with you, right?" ”

Several people were puzzled for a while, not understanding why Xiaoice said this, and Xi Ziqian first asked, "Isn't this strict?" There's nothing here, and it looks like we'll have to go out and find food for ourselves in the future, just like wild animals, so how can it be called strict? ”

Swinging his index finger, Xiaoice said, "I have also seen Old Man Zhou with an apprentice, but it is the first time I have seen him to find you food when you first meet, and it seems that he is seriously thinking about your cultivation." ”

"Really? How did he treat his apprentices before? Xi Ziqian asked suspiciously.

"Then I'll imitate it for you, ahem!" Straightening his waist, Xiaoice cleared his throat, deliberately lowered his voice, pointed to the outside of the cave, and said, "There, under the mountain, there is everything to eat and drink, go find it yourself!" ”

Xiao Mozhu and the four of them looked at each other speechlessly, they didn't expect the old man to be so cold.

After thinking about it, Du Hanyun still didn't understand and asked, "Then why did his attitude change for the better?" ”

Under the gaze of several people, Xiaoice sighed and said, "Maybe it's because of loneliness...... This old man, I don't know how long he has lived on the Snow Refining Peak, he was still younger more than a hundred years ago, and he was already here at that time. ”

"More than a hundred years! Master, how old is he? Xi Ziqian let out an exclamation and asked in surprise.

Xiaoice shook his head and said, "I don't know......"

"Then he never went down the mountain?" Xi Ziqian asked again.

"Don't get me wrong, no matter how you say it, he's also a human being, and sometimes he will go down the mountain to do errands, but it's unlikely that he will have contact with ordinary people." Xiaoice tilted his head and thought about it and replied.

"How long was the last time Master took an apprentice?" Du Hanyun asked.

After a pause, Xiaoice said, "More than twenty years ago!" Twenty years ago, he still had two apprentices, but at that time, two apprentices who were not very good at cultivation died in the demon chaos. ”

"Twenty years ago? Did a lot of what happened twenty years ago have something to do with the demon chaos? Xiao Mozhu asked.

Taking a deep and heavy breath, Xiaoice nodded and said slowly, "That's right!" A lot of things happened twenty years ago, and it can be said that there is only one reason, and that is the demon chaos! Not only Jiuyan, but also not only the Eastern Ancient Continent, a demon rebellion that spread all over the world, countless demons and warlocks died! ”

"It's funny to say, ordinary humans who are sheltered by the warlocks are much safer, and the reason for 'frequent' natural disasters explains everything." Xiaoice said with a sneer.

Xiaoice's description is extremely simple, but Xiao Mozhu and several people are unimaginable, over the years, the monster has been governed in a very timely manner, and it is rare to hear of any place where there is a big loss, twenty years ago, the scope of the world demon chaos, what should it be?

"This matter is far from that simple, not only twenty years ago, but also from ancient times to the present, such a demon chaos will happen in the future, and it should never stop, you will understand in the future." Xiaoice was a little unhappy, and spoke in a low voice.

Xiao Mozhu, Du Hanyun, Xi Ziqian, and Pu Xueying have never heard such a thing in anyone's mouth, and shock is inevitable.

"So, what is the reason? Isn't there a solution to the demon chaos once and for all? Pu Xueying asked.

Laughing softly, Xiaoice's expression seemed to be mocking Pu Xueying's ignorance, and said, "Once and for all? Yes, there are solutions! If humanity could become extinct, there would be no such turmoil......"

The cave fell silent for a moment, and three flames burned silently.

I don't know when it started, a strong wind had already blown on the Snow Refining Peak, blowing over the Ice Wind Cliff, making a muffled sound of "whining".

As the temperature drops, the wind and snow drift down, and the sky is swept up in the wind, whistling inside and outside the cliffs, as the name suggests......

Icewind Bluffs.

The original cave was empty, and Xiao Mozhu and the four of them lived here temporarily, and they could only settle for a while, either lying on their sides and curling up, or leaning against the stone wall, closing their eyes and resting under the warmth of the suspended flames.

Among the four, only Xi Ziqian complained frequently, but the delicate Pu Xueying felt that the "camping" was particularly fresh outside, so she had no complaints.
