Chapter 70: Melting Snow

The snow was so thick that the group was busy until late in the evening, but they still couldn't find much of a range.

Tang Wanwan was the last to return to the original point, and when she arrived, he found that there was only one entourage there, and he took their brother and sister to a sheltered cave that they had found not long ago, and An Yichen and they had set up a pyre on a flat ground in the cave and lit a bonfire.

Seeing Tang Wanwan following Gu Zichun from the entrance of the cave with his head down, he hurriedly gave up a vacant seat for her to sit down, and then handed her a bowl of hot food, and then filled a bowl for Gu Zichun.

Tang Wanwan stirred the food in the bowl with chopsticks, and he couldn't raise his appetite. Gu Zichun on the side ate quite deliciously, he raised his head from time to time to urge his sister to eat quickly, Tang Wanwan just nodded but didn't move his mouth.

"Don't worry, you'll find it. An Yichen comforted her, Tang Wanwan showed a wry smile, and said, "The snow is so thick, I'm afraid it's hard to find it...... Besides, I've shouted countless times today, but the Soul Clearing Bead didn't send a single signal, and I don't know if it has been taken away by others?"

"I don't think so, the bead's previous spiritual power was damaged and is in the recovery stage, so it's normal to have no reaction. It's a deserted place, and no one else will come. ”

Gu Zichun took a sip of soup and looked up and said, Tang Wanwan quietly relieved, nodded, and took a sip of the soup that had already become warm with his eyebrows.

"Don't worry, let's rest in this place for the night, and tomorrow when the day dawns, I'll cast a spell with the four of them to melt the snow a little, and then it will be much easier to find." ”

"You can still melt snow!" Tang Wanwan felt a little incredible, after all, he had never seen it with his own eyes, but he saw An Yichen return to his old appearance, spread his hands back, supported the ground with his elbows, and pretended to be proud and squinted at Tang Wanwan.

It's just that the other party is not moved by him, he has to put away the uninhibited, in other words, the women in the imperial city don't like him to be so chic now, but why can't he get a trace of her response, alas, she is not an ordinary person!

He coughed a few times in embarrassment, and then said, "I just think that among the Xuangong we have practiced, there is a fire control technique, which may be useful for this snow." ”

"Well, it's worth a try. Gu Zichun nodded in agreement, Tang Wanwan also rarely showed a smile, she quickly finished eating the food in the bowl, Gu Zichun took the empty bowl and put it together with herself, and then an entourage came to take it away, he nodded and thanked him, but it made the family blush a little embarrassed.

There was nothing to say all night, there was hope in her heart, this night Tang Wanwan slept soundly, maybe she was too tired these days, she actually slept until dawn.

The others had already gotten up and gone to work on their morning meals, and the Gluttonous Stone had taken the time to fetch them a lot of dry firewood, enough for them to burn for several days.

Last night's gossip before going to bed, Tang Wanwan learned from An Yichen that the four entourages were actually the same surname, and they were all named after numbers, in order: Chen Yi, Chen Er, Chen Wu and Chen Jiu, and the others were all killed in the bloody battle with Li Wanqing.

They were all street children who were adopted by An Yichen's foreign family when they were young, so they followed the surname of his maternal grandfather's family, surnamed Chen. An Yichen's grandfather picked ten people with Huigen and practiced martial arts and Xuangong.

His maternal grandfather's family is also a century-old family, and his mother was favored by the emperor as a concubine, and these ten hidden guards were quietly trained by his maternal grandfather to secretly protect his mother.

Since giving birth to him, An Yichen's mother died of illness less than ten years ago, and before she died, she handed over the private seal of the hidden guard to An Yichen, and told him that if it was not a last resort, he must not let them be exposed.

After listening to this, Tang Wanwan realized that An Yichen had secretly paid so much for himself, and he inevitably felt more and more sorry in his heart.

Since then, she has made up her mind that she must treat him An Yichen as one of her best friends in her life.

"What are you thinking?" An Yichen squeezed over at some point and sat down next to her.

"Nothing. Tang Wanwan was perfunctory, and An Yichen looked at her with a sneering expression while playing with his broken fan, and said, "Aren't you still moved by what you said last night?" Then I have to think about how you should repay me!"

"Well, of course I will repay you well, and when the matter is over, if I am still alive, I will definitely find a beautiful flower for you, so that you can live in both places, how about it?" she also looked at him with a smile, nonsense.

An Yichen's eyes were obviously suffocated, and soon he was frivolous again, "That person is you, I want it." ”

Tang Wanwan was a little speechless, and said: "Can't you be serious, it's good for me to be your sister in this life." ”

"You really dare to say it!" You must know that he is two years older than An Zheyu, and Tang Wanwan took advantage of this.

"Okay, let's go and melt the snow. Tang Wanwan got up and didn't say anything more, but An Yichen stopped her and said, "It's not too late to have breakfast." ”

"I can't eat it. Tang was anxious, in An Yichen's opinion, this was her worry about An Zheyu again. If it weren't for that, why would she be so anxious to find the Soul Bead, because hiding from a distance first is the best policy.

He didn't say anything, then stood up and said to his entourage: "Don't worry about food first, cast spells and turn snow." ”

The four of them received the order without delay, and even Gu Zichun, who had always taken it as his duty not to embarrass his stomach, got up, thinking about the ability of this fire control technique.

The seven of them walked out of the cave, there was no sunlight outside, and the cold wind made Tang Wanwan involuntarily wrap his cloak tightly.

An Yichen and the four entourages pulled out the long sword in their hands at the same time, with An Yichen as the center, the four of them stood in a circle at a distance, chanting the spell in their mouths, only to see An Yichen raise the sword into the air, and the other four people also put the sword on his sword, with a shaking, the silk thread like a blue flame suddenly appeared between the sword and the sword.

The threads are all related, from a distance, like an ever-expanding spider web, with An Yichen's loud shout, the silk thread became thicker than the thumb, tied together, forming a large web on this huge snow, and everywhere the net went, the snow made a "zizi" sound.

Tang Wanwan and Gu Zichun stood far away, and her clothes were also wet with sweat from the heat brought by the thick blue line, she endured the huge heat, and she was happy in her heart, it seems that this time it was done!

But she was obviously happy too early, and in less than a cup of tea, the light gradually faded, An Yichen and the others were also sweating profusely at this time, and finally at the last moment, he motioned to the four people with his eyes, and everyone withdrew their skills together, and then they all squatted down and gasped.

"Are you alright?" Tang Wanwan hurriedly ran over and helped An Yichen.

"I'm fine, it's just that the exercises are a little depleted, and it will be fine to take a break. An Yichen squeezed out a smile and slowly straightened up.

It's just that he sighed, looked at the snow that was still white, and said to Tang Wanwan: "I'm sorry, our ability is limited. I didn't expect the snow in this place to be so cold that even this fire-controlling technique could not completely melt it. ”

"It's no wonder you. Tang turned around and comforted him: "This may not be ordinary snow, besides, under this unfathomable cliff, there is no sunlight here for a long time, and it is an extremely cold place. ”

"Wan'er is right, Your Royal Highness King Yi, you have done your best, the snow that has melted is tens of meters, it is not easy, let's go back to the cave to eat something to warm our stomachs, and then think of other ways when we are full." Gu Zichun also came over to persuade him, An Yichen nodded, and Tang Wanwan helped him to walk towards the cave......

After filling his stomach, Tang Wanwan got up and walked outside the cave, Gu Zichun hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

"Oh, I want to look for it in a place I didn't look for yesterday, the Soul Bead fell from that cliff, it should only fall next to the cliff, today I will look for it along the edge of the cliff. ”

"I'll go with you!" Gu Zichun put down the bowl and followed, An Yichen and the others also recovered a lot, leaving someone to watch the fire, and the rest also rushed out of the cave together.

Tang Wanwan said it well, this cliff is smooth and unattached, even if there is a small bulge, it will definitely not be able to retain the round soul bead, then it is very likely that it will fall on the edge of the cliff.

Several people searched along the cliff at the same time, and half a day passed, but there was no progress.

"Brother, do you say, will the Soul Clearing Bead suddenly wake up when it comes down and roll away by yourself?" Tang Wanwan asked with some frustration. Gu Zichun nodded, feeling that this was not impossible.

The six of them went forward to look for it, it stands to reason that Tang Wanwan and they were sent down by the greedy stone from the place where the Soul Bead fell, and it stands to reason that the place where they landed is also the place where the Soul Bead will fall, but the general location is that they have already searched for the place, but they have found nothing until now.

Tang Wanwan was a little angry, she stomped her foot violently, but suddenly felt that the sky was spinning, and the ground under her feet suddenly collapsed, and she fell down quickly before she could gain a foothold.

"Bend!"

"Bend!"

The shouts of his brother and An Yichen were still in his ears, and Tang Wanwan suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and he could no longer hear or see any sound and movement.

Feeling like she was still falling, she could only pray that there would not be a hard ground below, even if it was a dark river.

"Poof", the water splashed, Tang Wanwan really guessed correctly, this is an underground dark river, but the water doesn't seem to be very cold, she quickly pulled a few times to let herself surface.

I saw that this place was transparent on all sides, and there was a breeze blowing from time to time, although it was much darker than above, but there was no need to worry about sight.

Fortunately, I know how to swim, so I won't drown on the spot. She spat out some unpleasant water in her mouth, and slowly swam ashore, where the land was hidden by the dark river, and above it was an uneven cave roof, from which every now and then some droplets of water could drop.

Tang Wanwan was a little scared, she tried to scream a few times, but she didn't hear anything, thinking that her brother and An Yichen didn't come down, thinking of this strange place, she came here by herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little scared.

She tried to take a few steps inside, hoping to find a way up, but as soon as she turned a sharp corner, a pair of lantern-sized lights suddenly appeared in front of her;

Tang Wanwan couldn't help but scream, and with her scream, the green lantern suddenly moved, it was very dark here, Tang Wanwan could only see that the lantern was turning, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer to himself!

She was so frightened that she forgot to run away, and when the lantern approached her with a sound like a chain, she reflexively crouched down with her head in her hands, closed her eyes and said silently: "Hallucination, all this is an illusion......

At this time, An Yichen and Gu Zichun were lying on the ground where Tang Wanwan had fallen inexplicably, and they even used the sword in their hands to dig, but the ground seemed to have never cracked, and it was extremely hard.

"What to do, King Yi, what to do!"
