3.3 Test of Fire and Ice (1)

I only heard Ke Zhenshi shouting, "Look, look, my watch!" It's almost 6:45 now! It's weird, it's like a stop-and-go ......."

"Yes...... Isn't it broken? ”

"I don't think so," Rui Gong said, "could it be that we are in this world, and our energy is relatively weak, so we stop and go?" ”

"It's a bit reasonable, but, according to what you say, will we get weak day by day, and then we will ......" Ke Zhenshi said with a lot of care, and Rui Geng's face couldn't help but change when he heard it.

Di Qingchuan's face turned even pale, and he hurriedly said, "I'm going to die!" Die! Hurry up and think about it...... Find a way to get back to ...... Go home! ”

"But it's not like we're in a hurry."

The three of them were whispering, and Hu Lan suddenly said behind him, "We are about to leave the Yushan Realm in front of us, and we are about to take the most difficult road in Ke Jinzhou, the so-called ice and fire two heavens, everyone be careful." ”

The path the group walked became more and more desolate. Although it was much easier to walk than the wooded jungle before, the teenagers had never had the energy to walk such a long distance, and with the fact that they had no spiritual power, the journey to the Lingwu Secret Realm was becoming extremely difficult and long.

The air grew colder and the earth darkened. The clouds in the sky were rolling faster and faster, and the fog was misty. The sun hung high, but it was very small, like a small ball of fire about to be extinguished.

In the team, Hu Lan walked in front first, Hu Sang and Hu Qi walked at the back of the team, chattering and not knowing what to say, and in the middle were three teenagers who were hobbling.

"Whewβ€”" Rui Gong let out a long breath. It's been a few days since she entered this plain, and if it weren't for Hulan who has been firmly leading the way, she would definitely suspect that she was taking the wrong road, why did the scenery on the side of the road still not change after so long? There is no end to it. But she looked at the endless plain in front of her, and a trace of determination flashed in her indifferent eyes.

It was noon. The clouds were getting thicker and thicker, and the inky clouds on the horizon were pressed very low, which made Rui Gong feel very depressed. Scattered hailstones fell from the sky, the temperature dropped sharply, and the icy cold air hit from all directions, and the wind and dust gradually rose, making several teenagers shiver.

Hu Lan walked ahead against the strong wind, looked up into the distance, and said thoughtfully, "We have been walking northeast for so long, we should be almost at Muli Glacier." β€œ

"Glaciers? What glacier? Ke Zhenshi couldn't suppress his curiosity.

"Muri Glacier, the coldest place in Kokinzhou. It is frozen all year round, and life is extinct. But it is the only way to the secret realm of Lingwu. Husan explained.

Rui Gong looked up and saw that there were no glaciers in the vast wasteland, but on the horizon as far as the eye could see, some shacks made of grass, trees, mud and stone gradually appeared, far and near, sparse and dense.

"Ahead," Rui Gong pointed to the shacks, "is it some kind of spirit settlement?" ”

Sure enough, I saw Hu Lan turn his head and say, "Ahead should be the residence of the Spirit Clan here." Since we're passing through here, let's go and say hello to them. After speaking, he beckoned to the fox and said, "Zhu'er, you go with me to meet you!" ”

"Okay Dad." After hearing this, the fox immediately walked out of the back of the line, and turned his head to look at several teenagers, "That brother and they ......."

Hu Lan stopped, "More is better than less." Seeing that the three teenagers' lips were blue and their bodies trembled, Hu Lan smiled slightly, "Well, by the way, I will get some fur for the human children to keep warm." ”

Kitsune nodded. I saw the figures of the two foxes flickering, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"What the hell is this place?" Ke Zhenshi looked at the disappearing figures of Hulan and asked out loud. A cold wind blew, and he shivered in the wind with thin clothes, and couldn't help but add a bit of trilling to his voice.

Fox Sang muttered, "The outer perimeter of the Muri Glacier...... It should be the camp of the Gang Clan. They are a nomadic people who live along the outer edge of the glacier. The whole of Murry is a large ice cave surrounded by it, and it is difficult for ordinary creatures to adapt to it. ”

"Are we going to cross a glacier? How long does that take? Rui Gong asked.

"Crossing the glacier is the quickest way to do it, it doesn't take three to five days. But if you don't go inside the Muri Glacier and go around, you will have to go through at least three full moons and three wanes to get there. ”

"Then after we cross the glacier, will we immediately arrive at the Lingwu Secret Realm?" Ke Zhenshi asked the questions that everyone was concerned about.

"Well, after this glacier, you have to pass through the scorching heat of the quicksand ridge, which is a desert of quicksand; After passing the quicksand ridge, let me think, yes, it's Luo Yuan! The Lingwu Secret Realm is at the end of Luo Yuan. ”

"So, we're going to cross the glacier first, then the desert, and finally the river...... "Rui Gong thought thoughtfully.

When Di Qingchuan heard that he was going to go to so many places, he was a little anxious, and said incoherently, "What...... So many places! Want...... How long does it take...... How long has it been? ”

Husang grinned and said with a smile, "Let's go faster, just one or twenty days." ”

When Di Qingchuan heard this, his face became more and more sad, "It's so far away......"

Hu Sang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, if you have spiritual power, it won't take that long, and it will only take five or six days to arrive." Mainly we ......"

Mr. Ke doesn't seem to be interested in the question of how long he has to go. But when he heard that there was something in the glacier and the desert, he suddenly became interested, "Wow, from the glacier to the desert, this must be fun!" If you can meet any interesting spirit beast, even if it's a monster, it's pretty good. ”

"What are you happy about? Do you have spiritual powers? Can you win? Don't live like a dream all day! Rui Gong snorted coldly in his nose, like a basin of cold water poured on Ke Zhenshi's body. Ke Zhenshi was also upset by what he said.

Husang watched them bickering and felt a little funny, so he changed the topic and said, "I hope the road will go well." If you go to the Lingwu Secret Realm early, you can see the birth of the Phoenix Emperor, which is a once-in-a-lifetime event. If it's delayed by something, I'm afraid ......"

Hearing Hu Sang say this, Ke Zhenshi no longer thought about any adventures on the road, "That's, that's, let's go to the secret realm early, don't go wrong." It's a pity that we humans haven't seen the Phoenix Emperor yet! ”

Rui Gong sneered, don't turn your face, don't pay attention to them anymore. She remembered the splendid firebird she had seen in her dream, and she wondered if this firebird was the Phoenix Emperor who kept talking about it in their spirit fox's mouth.

After talking for a while, Fox Lan and Fox Tree returned, holding a pile of thick fur-like things in their hands.

Hu Lan handed the folded furs to the teenagers in turn, and the teenagers shook them open and saw that the fur was strung into the shape of a coat by an unknown thin leaf stem, of course, it was a coat, but the workmanship was extremely coarse, far from being comparable to artificial or machine-woven, and there was no superfluous decoration.

There are three furs, two cylindrical ones that look like blouses and trousers, and a long cloak that looks like a cape.

When the three teenagers got these messy furs, they were a little stunned, and it took a lot of effort to figure out how to dress.

Ree wore her blouse over her top, her pants more like elongated leggings, and her cape wrapped directly around her body. Not to mention, when she got dressed in her fur, she instantly felt like she was hiding under a thick quilt with air conditioning in winter, and her body warmed up again.

Seeing that Rui Gong was the first to get dressed, the fox asked with a smile, "How is it, is it warm?" ”

"It's warm, I didn't expect it to look simple, and the warmth is so good." Rui Gong said sincerely.

Di Qingchuan also quickly put it on, Ke Zhenshi was swaying, he couldn't wear it, and finally with the help of the fox tree, half of his head was exposed from the fur.

"Ahhh Ke Zhenshi moved his body with great effort, and his clothes were obviously one size bigger than others.

"It's okay, just put it on, you're warmer this way." Seeing his funny appearance, the fox couldn't help but laugh.

"By the way, sister, why don't you wear it?" Ke Zhenshi asked curiously.

"You are stupid, is our fox's fur white?" Sister Fox smiled undiminishedly and touched her beautiful tail.

"By the way, Sister Fox, do you know what kind of animal fur this is made of?" Ke Zhenshi asked curiously.

"This thing you are wearing is made of rat fur, I told my father just now that they made a temporary modification, otherwise there would be no such thing for you to wear." The fox smiled lightly.

"Xi ...... Rats? Is that...... What is it...... What animal? Di Qingchuan touched the hair on the cloak, and the tentacles were soft and delicate.

Husang squatted next to Di Qingchuan, and immediately interjected when he heard this, "Rats are low-level creatures in this world, living in glacial areas, they have no spiritual power, they feed on plants and trees, but their meat is delicious, and they are the food on the plate of high-size carnivorous creatures. Their fur is very cold and warm. The tents in front were set up by the rat's natural enemy, the rat's natural enemy, who ate the rat's flesh and then made various winter clothing out of fur and rented it to those who wanted to cross the Muri Glacier but did not have the ability to protect against the cold. Fox Mulberry eyebrows fluttered and explained the origin of the dress.

"It turns out that here, like our world, there will be killing and looting in order to survive." Rui Gong said thoughtfully.

While he was talking, Father Fox walked over from the side and handed him a warm coat casually, "You can put it on too." "This dress is a little thinner than the ones they have.

The smile on Husang's face stopped instantly, sighed slightly, and reluctantly put on a fur suit. He knew that because he had almost no spiritual power, he needed a warm dress just like humans.

"Alright, let's hurry up." Hu Lan greeted and turned and walked forward.

The teenagers followed behind, and the air was filled with a cold and icy smell, but with more freshness, people couldn't help but want to take a big breath, just like when I was a child, there was always the smell of firewood in winter, but as long as there were snowflakes falling in the sky, all the turbidity in the air could be washed away.

"This feeling!" Rui Geng squinted quietly, she remembered that when she was a child, the winter at her grandmother's house seemed to give her this feeling, and the whole Taowu Village was the same. Grandmother! Rui Geng's heart ached, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten a little.
