After a cloud and rain order, Chu Jingxiang's body was full of fierce kiss marks, and Youyoule's body was also full of red scratches, the two continued to linger, Youyoule caressed her chest, and found that there was a very small and delicate tattoo on her collarbone, tattooed with a thorn and a flower, Youyoule didn't understand what this meant, and asked, "What is this tattoo?" Flower of Thorns? ”

Chu Jingxiang was still gasping for breath and said, "What's the matter, suddenly pay attention to this?" ”

Youyou said: "I want to know you, know all about you." ”

Chu Jingxiang blushed and smiled: "In this tattoo, the thorn represents my name Jing, and the flower represents my name Xiang." ”

Youyoule also felt tired, and lay on the bed and said, "What a meaningful name." ”

Chu Jingxiang got dressed, the two of them came out together, the wind direction in the dry river ice valley changed, and the wind and snow outside the camp tent had stopped, the commander of the second battalion of the expedition team and the team had just finished surveying the situation of the dry river ice valley, and rushed to report to the empress: "Your Excellency, now that the snow and dust in the dry river ice valley have stopped, it is the best time to cross the dry river ice valley, should we go over now?" ”

The empress said: "The whole army is lined up, we are ready to cross the dry river ice valley!" ”

The battalion commander led the team down, and the empress turned to Youyoule and said, "You also wear thicker, it's very cold in the dry river ice valley." ”

The guard handed over a thick robe with a bright appearance, and You Youle put it on smoothly, saying, "It doesn't matter if it's cold, it would be nice if there was a weapon for self-defense." ”

Chu Jingxiang said: "With me protecting you, what are you afraid of?" ”

Youyou said: "I don't want you to be distracted at the critical moment, let alone that you are me...... I'm your man. ”

Although this sentence was not Youyoule's original intention, it was also sweet to Chu Jingxiang's heart, and she smiled and said: "You are quite good at talking now, and it makes a lot of sense, I also brought your sword." ”

Chu Jingxiang waved his hand, the guards presented the heavenly evil hands, You Youle took the sword, thanked him, and said in his heart: Sure enough, I guessed it, Tianzhen must be here, but she didn't want to give it to me because of Wen Xiao, but it doesn't matter, Wen Xiao's matter can also be put aside first.

The time that the Heavenly Evil has left has been decorated, plated with the hilt of the sword with the pattern of Luoyu, a red sword spike, and a very special sword nose, which can be used to directly carry the Heavenly Evil on his waist.

After packing up, the expedition team is also ready to set off, because the terrain of the dry river ice valley is very complicated, and there are icicles and icicles everywhere, so they can only go on foot, from the gentle slope on the side of the high cliff, to the riverbed, I feel a burst of dignified cold like a thin needle tip into the clothes, piercing the skin, it can be said that the cloth is as cold as iron.

Not long after walking along the riverbed, the reconnaissance pioneer in front of the expedition team has found a more suitable road to cross the dry river ice valley, the icicles in the dry river ice valley are more than ten meters high, and the small ones are also sharp and thin, which is very dangerous, the icicles on this road are relatively few, and the four sides are relatively open, and if the icicles fall suddenly, there is a danger of hitting people.

Youyoule followed all the way forward, and when you walked on the riverbed, you couldn't see it, but when you came to the center of the dry river ice valley, you could see a mist of cold air penetrating through the icicles, blowing through the gaps, and the frozen people shivered.

The wadi ice valley is not a wide river, but is brought together by many tributaries, and the main channel that passes through the wadi ice valley is the river plain ice beach in front of it, and there are many broken rivers or ice caves on the river plain ice flat.

The group walked cautiously on the ice field, and suddenly saw a vague figure in the distance, trembling towards this side, everyone was also surprised, how could there be people on this desolate river plain?

The empress ordered to be on guard, slowly marched forward, crossed two or three rivers, approached the empress and sent someone to ask the depressed figure, at this time the wind and snow were also smaller, across a river that is not wide or narrow, the scout and the man talked, after a while, the scout came to the empress's side, and said: "That man is an ugly servant, I don't know where he came from, because it is too cold, and he is thinly dressed, so he can't speak clearly." ”

The empress was a little strange, and said: "Didn't I let him chase after Tangwu, why did you come here, quickly, pass him over, I have something to ask him." ”

The scout went and brought the ugly servant closer, only to see that the ugly servant's hair was frozen into a handful of frost, and his face was covered with frostbite, which was even uglier than before.

The Empress asked him to put on a garment and asked, "Where have you been?" ”

The ugly servant shuddered for a while, raised his face, and said, "Back to the empress, I went to Kangcheng in Jihou Valley." ”

The empress asked again, "I see, what about the winding dance?" ”

The ugly servant and his party burst into tears, and said: "I chased them all the way to I don't know where they went, in the deepest part of Cannes, I was calculated everywhere, and those people under my command were also killed and wounded, and I was the only one left, and Tang Wu and Nie Xiaosheng had already escaped from the underground tomb in Cannes." ”

The empress said angrily: "Waste, what's the use of asking you? ”

The ugly servant hurriedly apologized and said: "Don't be angry, the empress, I didn't get nothing this time, the underground tomb is guarded by three demons and four monsters, although they didn't catch Tang Wu and Nie Xiaosheng, but there are a lot of treasures down there, I picked one that suits the empress's heart the most and brought it to you." ”

The empress said, "Present it to me and I'll take a look." ”

The ugly servant took out a box with a gold phoenix bottom dragon pattern, wiped it clean by the guards and handed it to the empress, inside the box were two blood-red treasure rings, shining with cold light, like a blood snake spitting scarlet letters, the ugly servant had long known that the empress wanted to find a person she liked, so she borrowed flowers to offer the Buddha to send the treasure rings collected.

Seeing that the Empress of the Treasure Ring's expression softened slightly, she said: "If you don't have merit this time, you will be considered to have worked hard, so I will leave you in the team to atone for your sins." ”

The ugly servant nodded again and again, and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, Your Excellency, these two treasure rings symbolize noble status, and these are the most conspicuous treasures placed in the underground tomb, which should be the emperor and queen of the Augustan Empire." ”

The empress asked her to put away the treasure ring and said, "Okay, so there is a passage from Cannes ahead?" ”

The ugly servant said: "Yes, Lord Empress, my subordinates don't know how Nie Xiaosheng knows, otherwise they wouldn't let him escape from me, there is a big ice cave in front, from which you can go directly to the deepest place in the underground tomb, but the big ice cave is also very dangerous, and if you accidentally step on your slippery foot, you may fall from it." ”

The empress said, "You go down first, and continue to walk with the expedition." ”

The expedition continued to set off, slowly moving away from the dry river ice valley, and in front of it was a large crack, the frozen ground on the ground had melted, and the ground beneath their feet had become a swamp trap.
