Main Chapter 183: There are fish in the North Underworld
The sky gradually brightened, and there were two thin figures standing straight at the northern border, one with a red cloak embroidered with silver lotus, hidden in the cloak The delicate and moving face loomed, and the hem and green silk fluttered in the raging and crazy long wind, she was so independent of the world, like a cold lotus, clear and elegant. Those cold eyes are as clean as the glacier in front of them, and they are difficult to approach.
The other man was dressed in an off-white suit, his hair was tied up high, revealing a delicate and distinct face, his eyes were like falling stars, his eyebrows were like sword edges, his lips were slightly raised, and he had a slight chuckle. looks very casual, but in the casualness, there is a little more contempt. It was as if everything in the world was just a thick ink on the paper in his eyes.
"This is the entrance to the North Underworld?"
Lan Zeyun clenched his fists and looked at the world in front of him as blue and pale as the sky.
"Yes, this is, Miss Zeyun, let me say one more thing, if you go inside, it will be a curse or a blessing, I can't say for sure, I have a hard time working alone on weekdays, and now there is one more person, and I can't guarantee your absolute safety." Do you still want to go? ”
Lan Zeyun looked at the ice-paved road in front of them fixedly, and although they hadn't stepped into it yet, they could still feel the icy frost sloping out from the Northern Netherlands.
"Go, where my heart wants, even if I climb, I will climb into the snow country, even if there is a sword mountain and a sea of fire in it, I will go."
Bai Zhong turned around and looked at Lan Zeyun beside him, and after a while, he asked with a smile: "The person you are obsessed with in your heart must be the love of your life, for her to cross mountains and mountains, swords and mountains and seas of fire, and those who come do not refuse, such courage, he is really happy." ”
"I love him, he died for me, and I don't want to never see him again in this life."
"If this trip doesn't find an opportunity, where should the girl go?"
Lan Zeyun blinked his eyes, and said in a calm tone: "If you don't find it, then look for it again, the years are endless, and I won't stop." ”
At this moment, whether it is Lan Zeyun or Bai Congzhong, their hearts are extremely firm, they each have their own indelible obsessions, and they are destined to live unrestrained in this life.
The land of the Northern Underworld, independent of the world, is little known, and even ancient books are rarely recorded. But the slightest record that can be seen in the book calls this place the place of death.
Lan Zeyun and Bai Zhong walked side by side, the cold wind was sluggish, mixed with snowflakes, as sharp as a knife. In front of him, it was all ice blue and pale, and the long wind whimpered, like a grief-stricken woman roaring hoarsely.
Before she walked a few miles, Lan Zeyun felt cold all over, and it was strange to say that she had no way to resist the cold of this place with her spiritual power.
After walking for a few hundred meters, Lan Zeyun's eyelashes and eyebrows were covered with a layer of crystal clear frost flowers, Lan Zeyun only felt that the meridians in her body were being frozen little by little, and her body slowly became stiff. His steps trembled, and every step he took would lose a little strength.
Looking at Bai Cong on the side again, the whole person was relaxed, with his hands behind his back, humming a brisk tune in his mouth, and there was no cold air at all.
"White ...... Bai Daochang, I... My body, as if ...... Not really..."
Bai Zhongzheng was admiring the four icy blue hills, which he had traveled back and forth countless times. As he was walking, he heard a faint trembling voice behind him.
Bai Cong immediately turned around, and when he saw Lan Zeyun's pale lips without the slightest hint of blood, he suddenly realized, patted his brain, and said to himself: "Oops! Look at my memory! How did you forget this! ”
As he spoke, Bai Cong quickly took out a fiery red round bead from the lock bag on his waist and put it on Lan Zeyun's hand, and said embarrassedly: "That...... This is a fire bead, which can resist the cold air of the Northern Netherlands, you just need to put it on your body, it should have been given to you when you entered the North Netherlands, and the result is ...... At that time, I was so emotional that I forgot about it. I hope the girl is not strange. ”
Lan Zeyun felt a burst of fiery qi in the palm of his hand, rushing into his body little by little along the veins, and those frozen meridians immediately melted. The warmth began to radiate from the inside out.
In just a quarter of an hour, Lan Zeyun's pale and purple lips regained their blood color, and the snow and frost between his eyebrows gradually subsided.
Bai Zhong knew that this matter was a little unkind, so he quickly took off the wine gourd on his waist, handed it to Lan Zeyun, and said with a smile: "Miss Zeyun, hurry up and drink a sip of wine to warm up your body, it must have been frozen just now." This Northern Netherworld is like this, and the spiritual power we cultivate can't resist such coldness. Fortunately, there is this fire bead, otherwise don't talk about us, even if it is a Daluo Immortal, he can't enter the North Hell! ”
Lan Zeyun took the flask, poured two sips violently, and then asked, "What you took from the old man is a fire bead?" ”
Bai nodded and said, "Of course, I've never fought unprepared battles. If you want to work, you must first sharpen your tools, and you still have to listen to what your ancestors say. ”
Lan Zeyun raised his eyebrows, looked at Bai Cong and squinted and smiled: "I thought you were worried about the wine in the old-timer's wine cellar." I can't forget the way you were so drunk that day, crawling out of the vat. ”
Bai coughed lightly, his eyes dodged left and right, knowing that this was Lan Zeyun deliberately choking himself, but this thing was indeed inappropriate for himself, making others suffer for so long in vain, and he really had no way to quibble.
As the two of them were talking, the ice around them suddenly trembled violently, and even the Xiaoice mountains on the side also trembled, and from time to time broken ice spikes fell from the sky and broke in half on the ice.
"What's going on?"
Lan Zeyun had never been to the North Underworld, and everything in this place was quite unfamiliar, and just as she asked, the ice under her feet "clicked" a few times, revealing several white cracks!
Seeing this, he immediately took out a copper coin from his arms and still went into the air, the copper coin gradually grew larger in the air, and Bai immediately pulled up Lan Zeyun, left the ground, and jumped onto the copper coin that became bigger.
"Miss Zeyun is very lucky, she just came to the land of the North Underworld, and she met a school of fish unique to the North Underworld."
Lan Zeyun looked puzzled: "Fish? In this Northern Underworld, in addition to the people of the Snow Country, there are other living creatures? ”
Bai nodded and explained to Lan Zeyun: "There is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun, which is the unique name of this fish by the people of the Snow Country. Of course, this kind of fish is not like what we see on weekdays. Kun is several miles long, several zhang wide, its tail is full of colorful brilliance, the eyes are ice blue, the periphery is snow-white, and it lives in groups. Beneath the North Glacier, there are bottomless waters, and this is where they live. If you're lucky, you might even hear them singing! It is said that whenever Kun finds a suitable partner, they chirp to each other to express their joy. ”
"Kun? Is there such a strange thing in the world? ”
Bai Zhong saw that there was nothing unusual about the ice ground below, so he pulled Lan Zeyun away from the copper coin, returned to the ground, and said with a smile: "Naturally, there are many strange things in this world, they are hidden in places that we can't see, touch, and never touch, and they are a thick glimpse of all creatures in this world." ”
Lan Zeyun nodded, looking at the cracked ground under his feet, although this crack is big, it doesn't sway at all when he walks on it, which shows how deep the ice is!
The swarm has passed, and the realm has regained its silence and tranquility. Bright white snowflakes swirled and fluttered in the sky one by one, sparkling in the blazing sun.
Lan Zeyun and Bai continued to walk forward, their firm footprints disappearing into the ice, completely buried by the wind and frost.
The dazzling frost shaved Lan Zeyun's face painfully.
"There's a cave there, let's go and hide, the wind is so strong, the heart snowflakes are like knives, I can't stand it."
Bai reached out and touched his face, and when he looked at it, there were some blood stains on his hands.
Lan Zeyun turned his head to look, and sure enough, Bai Congzhong's face was cut several times by the wind and frost. My face is also hot and painful, and I'm afraid I have broken several holes.
The two of them were of the same mind, covering their faces and running towards a cave not far away.
Lan Zeyun followed Bai Zhong into the cave, this cave looks big and small, it can accommodate four or five people, but the sparrows are small but have all kinds of organs. In this cave, the daily necessities are very complete.
Bai shook the snowflakes on his body, reported a pile of firewood from the side, built a small fire, and then looked at Lan Zeyun who was in a daze on the side and said: "Come here, what are you in a daze, although we have fire beads and are not afraid of the cold, but this dress should always be dried." Otherwise, the wet answer will be uncomfortable and tight. ”
Lan Zeyun came over in response, obediently sat on the small bench next to the fire, and then observed the cave thoroughly.
"In this cave, there are tables, chairs, beds, and daily utensils, as if someone has lived there all year round."
Bai Zhong heard Lan Zeyun's question, smiled, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "That's right, then do you want to guess who the people who live here all the year round are?" ”
When Lan Zeyun heard this, he saw Bai get up and take out a pot from the small cabinet on the side, and his heart naturally understood.
"Is that you?"
"That's right, it's me, who else can have such great ability except Uncle Ben!"
Bai Zhong said, skillfully hung the pot on the fire, opened the large water tank on the side, picked up the scoop and scooped several scoops of water.
"Why have you been living in this place for so long, are you also looking for Snow Country?"
Lan Zeyun really couldn't imagine that apart from the legendary Snow Country, there was anything else that could attract Bai Cong to stay in such a hostile place.
