Chapter 283: Taking Silk 1
......
For five days in a row, the people in the painting Allure City did not see the shadow of the shadow of the half-makeup, and even Wan Qiao's scarlet clothes disappeared from their sight.
If it weren't for the fact that there was enough food in the bamboo huts they lived in, they really felt like they were locked up in the valley to fend for themselves.
Early in the morning, several people sat together, discussing the unusual situation in the Five Days Valley.
"If I'm not mistaken, as of today, we've been in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons for half a month, right?" Ji Wuxin said.
"It's been half a month since I got to today, but I haven't seen it since I came back from the Dixing Palace that day, and I don't know what the situation is now. Ji Zi'an said.
"Wasn't Ying Ban Makeup injured when he fought with Su Yu before, and how was the injury?" Qing Ci asked with a frown, after all, he and An Ruyue had been under the cliff for three days and two nights, and he didn't know what the situation was when Ying Ban Makeup came back.
Cang Wunian shook his head, "He came back first that day, and he didn't even care about Wan Qi's scarlet clothes." And by the time we returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, he had already taken care of himself so that he looked no different from normal days. After that, he took Wan Qian away from the scarlet clothes, and I haven't seen him since. In the past few days, I have only seen Wan Qian Scarlet once, and I learned from her that Ying Ban Makeup needs to be healed, and I don't want to be disturbed. ”
"Is his injury serious? he didn't show up for five days in a row?" An Ruyue asked puzzled, in her opinion, a figure as strong as Ying Ban Makeup, if it wasn't for a fatal injury, it shouldn't be like this.
"Shouldn't he be in retreat at this time?" Qiao Sanniang said suddenly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces immediately changed.
They had all heard with their own ears that the shopkeeper of "Night Residence", who was called "Uncle Mountain Ghost" by Wan Qian Scarlet, told Wan Qian Scarlet that Ying Ban Makeup had been closed very frequently over the years, and it had not even appeared in the last two years. If he really retreats at such a time......
"This old poison, if he retreats at such a time, the master will definitely drag him out of the hole!" Qing Ci slapped his thigh and said viciously.
"Then what should we do now? If we miss the time for the ice silkworm to spin silk, won't we have to wait another three hundred years?" An Ruyue looked at everyone and asked worriedly.
"That's not right, even if you miss the time to spin silk, the silk won't disappear, right? When the Poison King comes out, can't we just let him take us to find it?"
Several people listened to the words of painting Allure, and their hearts were a little abrupt, but they saw that Cang Wunian shook his head, and said in a somewhat helpless tone: "It must be the silk that the ice silkworm has just spit out to be useful, if you wait until they break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly, then the ice silk will be no different from ordinary silk." ”
"Ah, why is this so?" An Ruyue whispered in surprise and disappointment.
"It's better to ...... Go find the Wan Qi Domain Lord, and ask her to help urge the Poison King senior. Ji Zi'an proposed.
"No need, isn't the deity here? Shadow Half-Makeup's signature strange double tone suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.
The next moment, everyone only felt a flower in front of them, and the dark red wide robe appeared in front of them.
"Old poison, you can finally give it up. If you don't come out again, the ice silkworm will probably turn into an ice butterfly. Qing Ci said angrily with his hands on his chest.
"Hmph, you stinky boy, you didn't die when you fell into the abyss with the 'Sealed Soul Scatter' in your body, your life is really big enough!"
"Hehe, you don't know this, my master, I am called 'ghost and sorrow', and the king of Hades doesn't dare to provoke me easily. Qing Ci said proudly.
Of course, what he said was also the truth, but with his current attitude, it was inevitable that people would think that he was suspected of bragging.
"You kid should be peaceful, honestly don't make any trouble, otherwise even if you don't believe you, I won't let you go." Shadow said with a half-makeup measure.
"Senior Poison King, are we going to Yuanqiao Mountain today?" Cang Wunian didn't give Qing Ci a chance to speak back again, and directly diverted the topic.
"That's nature, let's go now. Ying Ban Makeup agreed happily, but then he seemed to remember something, glanced at everyone, and said, "Wear more clothes, otherwise when you get to the top of the mountain, one by one freezes into ice ballast, don't blame the deity for not reminding you." ”
Speaking of which, the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons is at the foot of Yuanqiao Mountain, but Shadow Half Makeup has been here for so many years, and has already set up various traps on the road to the top of the mountain, including some of the cruel and vicious deadly obstacles extracted from poison.
Cang Wunian and his group of seven people followed him all the way, and they couldn't help but secretly rejoice in their hearts, fortunately, they had a good relationship with this strange old poison in the morning, otherwise they would kill themselves and go up the mountain, even if they didn't die, they would have to shed their skin.
Of course, the biggest credit for this is naturally Cang Wunian, to be precise, his face that is exactly the same as Cang Delusion. Otherwise, I am afraid that Ying Ban Makeup would not have accepted them so easily.
To say that the climate of this Yuanqiao Mountain is really weird, there is no difference between the valley and the outside world, and it is already a harvest season with high autumn air. And when they reached the halfway point of the mountain, everyone clearly felt the cold wind, and from time to time some cold rain fell, like the winter rain in the coastal country in the human world, wet and cold.
The higher you go, the lower the temperature gets, and there are scattered snowflakes in the sky from time to time. Only then did everyone understand why Ying Ban Makeup reminded them to wear more clothes when they were in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons before.
To say that this change in temperature is actually not a big problem for those of them who have mana, but Cang Wunian is still very worried about holding the hand of Hua Chengcheng, and asks her in a low voice from time to time if she will feel unwell. After all, she had an attack of Gu poison some time ago, and since she was planted with a "haunting dream" in her body, she has become more chilly.
However, the painting of Allure was refreshed along the way, and it seemed that the cold around her had not affected her in any way. Compared with herself, she cares more about Qiao Sanniang, after all, Qiao Sanniang is just an ordinary mortal, and going up the mountain with them is simply a crime, maybe the temperature is high and low, and it is hard to say that Qiao Sanniang should be infected with wind and cold when she returns to the foot of the mountain.
To the surprise of the painting, all the way to the top of the mountain, Qiao Sanniang didn't seem to show any discomfort, which couldn't help but make her breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that Qiao Sanniang had been by Luo Fan's side for many years, even if she couldn't practice the immortal method, she should have learned a lot of health and fitness techniques.
However, the fact is that Qiao Sanniang bought some new clothes when she first went to Linjie Island, and when she heard Ying Ban Makeup say that they should add more clothes, she was afraid of arousing suspicion, so she put on a fox fur.
So now that she has come to the top of Yuanqiao Mountain, although it is cold around her, it seems normal that she does not show discomfort.
"This Yuanqiao Mountain is really peculiar, it is still a hearty autumn at the bottom of the mountain, and it is actually snowing on the top of the mountain. Looking at the snow around her, An Ruyue couldn't help but be amazed.
"If it weren't for the year-round snow, the ice silkworms wouldn't have survived. After a while, when you come to the vicinity of the ice forest, the temperature will be lower than here, and if any of you can't stand it, take shelter in the cave in front of you. Shadow said as he pointed to a small cave not far away that was almost buried in snow.
Several people subconsciously set their eyes on Qiao Sanniang, Qiao Sanniang was slightly stunned, and then waved her hand and said, "It's okay, I can stand it." ”
Ying Ban glanced at her faintly, and said lightly: "Then let's continue to move forward." ”
After traveling in the wind and snow for nearly an hour, a strange forest appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The reason why it is strange is that the trees in this forest can only see the shape of the trees, but they cannot see the original appearance of the trees, and each tree is wrapped in snow, as if they themselves were made of snow.
Another reason is that the trees are all shrubs, almost waist-high and low, which really doesn't seem to be what they had expected from the word "ice forest".
"This is the so-called 'Ice Forest' in front of this?" Qing Ci asked in surprise, pointing to the white bushes in front of him.
"Or else?" asked Shadow Half-Makeup, glancing at him.
"This grove is a little more delicate, isn't it?" said Qing Ci with a smile and a smile.
"Xiuqi, you'll know how powerful it is later. Shadow didn't explain, but there was a slight mockery in his tone.
The group of eight of them stayed on the periphery of this low ice forest, and the shadow did not hurry to find a relatively flat stone and sit cross-legged to regulate their internal breathing.
The rest of the people sat around boredly and chatted.
After chatting for a while, An Ruyue suddenly lowered her voice and said, "You say, is this poison king's injury still unhealed?"
"Possibly, we fought Su Yu that day, and I could feel a lot of strength in him. If it weren't for the fact that he was too lightly poisoned by the shadow makeup, we probably wouldn't have been able to repel him so easily. Cang Wunian said with a serious face.
"Speaking of which, the Poison King's mask looked very flustered after being knocked off by Su Yu that day, did you see his face under the mask at that time?" Ji Wuxin asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Cang Wunian, Qing Ci and Ji Zi'an all shook their heads, only to hear Qing Ci say: "I only remember that day Su Yu asked him why he covered up the half of his intact face with a mask, which does sound very strange, even if he disfigured his appearance, shouldn't it be the intact half of his face?"
Not only that, but the way I looked at him that day was also very strange, and that feeling seemed to ...... It seems to be ......" Ji Zi'an took over, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't find a suitable word to describe Su You's expression at that time.
