The first rule of demon eradication: believe nothing and don't believe nonsense, especially a ghost with a big beard.

——Excerpt from "Chen Ling's Assistant Diary"

Three days later, a sunny day with a warm day.

This kind of weather is most suitable for outing and climbing the mountain, taking your girlfriend to a picnic, pulling her beautiful or not beautiful to climb high and look into the distance, running among the flowers, making a garland for her, and then sitting on the stone on the top of the mountain to overlook the scenery together, enjoy the sea of clouds and waves, and sing a love song for her when the twilight is deep, wait for the sky to be full of stars, tell her the most affectionate stories she once had, say the most touching love words to her, let time slip away unconsciously, and finally go into the tent to do something she likes to see...

Instead of walking alone in the snowy mountains looking for a corpse that I don't know where to hide, there was only a ghost who kept being forced to be in the company, and this ghost had been staring at his ass for five minutes, and knew what he was thinking with his toes.

Chen Ling has been wondering if he was crazy before agreeing to Xiushen to come to the Snow Mountain.

"Actually, it's not impossible for me to go by myself, but the environment of the Tiger Leaping Cliff is too bad, I checked the local chronicles when I came, as the land of the gods, there are still spells released by Turgenev in this place. Although I don't know what it is, it's definitely not easy to mess with looking at the top of the mountain and feeling the explosive aura. Seeking good fortune and avoiding evil is a necessary criterion for demon slayers. Xiushen was sitting in room No. 1 drinking red wine at this time, sitting on the sofa and chatting with Le Cheng. Le Cheng is a lot older, and he just has a cup of tea in front of him.

"I know a little bit about this, Turgenev unleashed his natal spell 'северный ветер и мороз мир'." Le Cheng replied as he sat next to Xiushen.

"What kind of spell is this, listening to the pronunciation, it seems to belong to the magic on the western side." As a demon slayer, Xiushen's knowledge reserve is definitely enough, and he has dabbled in all kinds of spells, and he can judge the source just by listening to the pronunciation.

"This is the ancient Su language, which translates into our language 'The World of the North Wind and the White Frost', a kind of realm magic. I still heard from my grandmother that this kind of magic can make a certain alien dimension directly descend on Earth, and the caster will be multiplied by strength. But it is rare for the scope to be so large and last so long, it seems that the Wind Emperor should have sacrificed his lifespan at that time. Le Cheng replied. Because the entire Tiger Leaping Cliff summit is full of ice and snow magic realm, so it is especially suitable for the cultivation of ice and snow creatures, my grandmother also went to the seclusion, in order to avoid others entering by mistake, but also specially spread a dense fog enchantment around, if no one leads the way, it should go down the mountain in a circle. ”

"Hmm...," Xiushen thought for a moment, "If there is a male ghost leading the way, you should be able to pass smoothly." ”

Chen Ling was blown by the wind and snow at this time and was not even in the mood to talk to the male ghost, recalling that the weather was fine at the beginning of the journey, and there were some lush forests around the mountain road, who knew that halfway through, he suddenly encountered a burst of fog, and the visibility was less than ten meters, the male ghost said that this was normal, and the true face of the tiger jumping cliff could be seen through this fog.

Chen Ling kept thinking afterwards, was he blinded by lard at that time? Why did you believe the ghost's words, and when you encountered a thick fog, you should go back, so why did you follow the ghost in a daze? What a ghost who believed in him.

After passing through the dense fog, the temperature dropped below minus 10 degrees Celsius, and the wind and snow drifted away, and there was no feeling of late summer at all. The only thing Chen Ling could hear was the sound of the wind and snow whistling, and the only thing he could see was the sign set up in front of him, which read "Human Forbidden Zone".

Xiushen moved his neck in the room, and his cervical spine made a sound, "Hey, perennial demon extermination, this body feels a little bad, and the cervical spine is not very good at this age." ”

"We also have some professional masseurs here, the skills are good, Master Xiushen may wish to try it later, maybe it will help your cervical spine." Le Cheng said on the side.

"Hey! This is good, I must experience it later. Xiushen hurriedly nodded in agreement. But you say those students, isn't it good to live well? Why do you have to go up that mountain? ”

Le Cheng took a sip of the tea in front of him and said: "I heard that they seem to be a group of people who play extreme sports, for them, it is impossible not to die, and challenging the limits of human beings is the real fun." The cold, the mountains, and even the existence of unknown creatures are the most alluring things for them. ”

"Are there any other creatures living on it?" Xiushen was particularly surprised by this.

"Yes, my grandmother felt lonely alone, so she specially raised some small animals there, all of them are low-level monsters who like ice and snow, but they only appear in certain areas, if you don't go to their territory, there should be no danger. But there's no danger in entering, most creatures will only throw snowballs at you, as long as you don't touch Tom and Jerry..."

"Tom and Jerry?" Xiushen immediately thought of the classic cartoon "Cat and Mouse" hundreds of years ago.

"It's a pair of ice porcupine father and son, it's the name I gave when I was a child" Le Cheng couldn't help but smile when he thought of his childhood masterpiece, "It's okay, if you are in a hurry, I will hit you with my nose at most." Le Cheng thought about how when he sent the ice porcupine father and son to the Tiger Leaping Cliff, his son Jerry was dozens of centimeters in size, and his father Tom was only one meter long, even if he hit it, it should be fine. But Le Cheng obviously forgot that it was more than 40 years ago.

Chen Ling was led by the male ghost to go further and further, and in the end he had completely forgotten the way he came, when Chen Ling expressed doubts about the male ghost, the male ghost showed absolutely no problem with his eyes, patted his chest and said that the road must be right. Chen Ling thought about it, how could there be a ghost who might not even be able to find his own body, how unreliable it must be.

As he walked, Chen Ling noticed that a snow mound suddenly rose in front of him, and a white wild boar more than three meters long and two meters high sprang out of the snow mound. Look at the ice thorns on the back of the wild boar glistening, and the two fangs are the size of a child's forearm, polished brightly. This is the overlord on the snow field, even if Xiushen is here, he can only retreat, let alone Chen Ling. He hurriedly looked at the male ghost next to him, his eyes full of horror and questions.

"Ahh It's an ice porcupine! I met it last time I came over with my roommate, but it's much smaller than this one, maybe less than a meter, it's very cute. Thanks to it, we had a full meal of porcupine hot pot, which tasted quite good. The male ghost remembered the past and seemed to be very happy.

But Chen Ling is very unhappy, you obviously ate its cubs! Watching the ice thorns behind the ice porcupine stand up in turn, needless to say, he knew that he was going to run, and then he heard the sound of swishing in the wind and snow behind him, and then Chen Ling knew that his backpack must have been pierced into a sieve without looking back, and hurriedly accelerated to escape. The more I run, the more my butt hurts, this time I don't have to take off my pants to know that I must have been shot in my ass, Chen Ling's only thought at that time was that I could still take a hot spring with Xiushen?

As soon as the ice porcupine saw that the first round of salvo did not kill the target, the front leg lay on the back leg and pouted, and rushed towards Chen Ling, and the two shiny fangs were like blades, smashing the surrounding rocks. Chen Ling saw the male ghost floating beside him with a smile on his face, he was simply a target for hatred, and hurriedly waved his hand to let the male ghost flash to the side, don't follow him.

The male ghost patted his chest and said, "Men naturally have to sacrifice themselves for others, believe me!" Then he flashed to the side and waved goodbye to Chen Ling. Chen Ling thought that the male ghost was actually a man enough to attract targets for himself, but the male ghost disappeared into the air while waving his hand.

It's gone...

It's gone!

How can it disappear?

At this time, the ice porcupine was very happy, and there was no longer any need to be confused about who to chase, and now there was only one target, it was as brave as a steamroller, crushing towards Chen Ling's small body.

"Chen Ling should be fine!" Le Cheng asked, as a businessman, he still hoped to solve this incident smoothly, it was just a small matter, and he didn't want to cause death.

"Based on what you just said, there should be no danger, probably no problem. Chen Ling, if there is any merit, it should be a hard life, but it is difficult to die. Xiushen drank the last sip of red wine in the glass, then got up and said, "Let's go, Boss Le, go and experience your masseurs and see how they do." ”

Le Cheng also got up, "Please come with Master Xiushen, it's not me who blows, our masseur's craftsmanship is definitely a must on Ape Track, and many big people come to us..."

The two of them left Room A No. 1 and walked towards the central service area.

It is often said that before dying, people will recall their lives in a very short time. Chen Ling is convinced that in his short life, Xiushen has occupied most of the colors in less than a year.

If you ask Chen Ling what is the most regrettable thing he has done in his life, then he will definitely say that on a certain sunny day, he walked into a demon elimination office to work because of the compulsion of life.

If Chen Ling was asked what he regretted in his life, he would say that he regretted watching his neighbor's child Misato take a bath when he was four years old, and he really decided that Misato was his destined bride at that time. But the truth slapped himself in the mouth, and it wasn't until he was six years old that he found out that Misato had gone into the bathroom with him.

He's just a good-looking little boy, what is the boy's name Misato, why is he so good-looking?

At that moment, he felt the malice of the world.

But if Chen Ling was asked what the third regret was in his life, then he would definitely say categorically that he believed the nonsense of a witch named Xiushen.

I'm sure she said that slaying demons would be a lot of fun, safe, and rewarding.

At this moment, he was convinced that he was dying, and although he was still running, the ice porcupines that were getting closer and closer behind him kept reminding him that his life had entered the countdown.

There are fifty meters left, and there are twenty meters, and there are seven meters...

As he got closer, Chen Ling seemed to be able to feel the sharp aura of the ice porcupine's fangs on his waist. Chen Ling had already slowed down, since he was going to die, why should he be so tired. It's a pity, I didn't have the opportunity to soak in the hot springs with Xiushen, and I wasn't willing to be a ghost...

It's almost the last moment of life, and I can vaguely see the gate of heaven, and I hope that the angels there are all sisters. And three, two, two, two...

Well? Why do you stay two meters still at all times?

Chen Ling looked back and saw that the ice porcupine was already stuck in the snow behind him.

We can simply calculate that an ice porcupine that is two meters tall and three meters long weighs about 1.7 tons. Tiger Leaping Cliff has heavy snow all year round, and the entire ground is full of soft snow, and people will directly reach their ankles when they step on it, and a monster weighing 1.7 tons will bring far more pressure than humans when running, so if Chen Ling looks back just now, he will find that the ice porcupine is rushing towards him in an oblique downward trajectory, and when he rushes in front of him, he is already deep in the snow, and he really can't rush anymore.

Chen Ling knelt on the snow, looked up at the sky, and stayed quietly for five minutes, sighing at the beauty of life.

Then when he came back to his senses, he sighed that life was really not good. There was silence as far as the eye could see, only white was left between heaven and earth, and apart from the sound of the wind and snow whistling, only the ice porcupines were still struggling to climb out of the snow.

There are no people, no male ghosts, no corpses, and the road will be cleaned in the future by the drifting snow.

Chen Ling deeply realized that he was trapped in this vast snowy land.
