"I don't know how you solved the problem, but it's something I shouldn't ask," Haldan smiled, understanding of our situation.

"You're a smart guy," I narrowed, and this guy made me even more defensive.

Obviously, when he entered the room just now, he didn't plan to tell us that this was going to happen here, either he really thought that we were not ordinary people and could deal with it ourselves, as he said, or he wanted to plot against me and the Wheel King, and he didn't want to go in and take risks.

Sure enough, people are unpredictable.

"Where is that village you are talking about? Why are there only mountains and pools here? I looked at him questioningly and said,

"Besides, in this harsh environment, it's an absolute problem to survive, right?"

"It's not just cold weather that comes next," Haldan flashed an intriguing look before turning to the top of another mountain.

Although I and the Wheel King have the ability to save lives, we need to be nervous all the time for unknown dangers, otherwise we will accidentally fall into the trap, but it will become a hatred for eternity.

The second mountain we had stepped on was not very high, almost a cut short of the previous one, and Hardan told us that this was the only way to the bottom of the Heavenly Pond, and that this was the only way to reach it.

His meaning is already very clear, that is, he must first enter the range of Tianchi in order to find out the specific location.

Although the cold here made me shiver a little, I had to use the ability to dust to raise my body temperature by a few levels before I was able to solve it.

The descent was steep, our feet were almost in the snow, and every step seemed difficult, but strangely enough, as an ordinary person, Haldan did not show the slightest difficulty in his journey.

"By the way," Haldan suddenly turned around, looked at us, and asked, "Have you ever seen a snow bug?" ”

"Snow bugs?" I was stunned for a moment, indicating that I had not touched or heard of this thing, and then glanced at the Wheel King next to me, and he shook his head.

Haldan took a deep breath and gently lifted his left leg as we both watched.

When I saw this, I gasped and almost let me cry out subconsciously.

The small, snow-white worms that were densely wrapped around Haldan's legs looked like ordinary snow sticking to them if you didn't look closely.

And when Haldan pulled out his leg for a while, the snow-white bugs actually began to emit bright red blood.

Then, Haldan unhurriedly took out a piece of Tianchi hot water from his bag again, and poured it on his feet desperately, freezing the snow insects that were attached to his legs into ice cubes one by one, and falling into the snow.

"This ......," I frowned, looking down at my feet in the snow, and I didn't feel anything out of the ordinary at all.

But when I learned from him to pull my right leg out, blood stains were imprinted on the snow worms that wrapped around me.

It was only then that I regained sensation in my legs, and a little pain came from my heart, and some of the snow worms seemed to have burrowed into my flesh.

I thought I couldn't take it anymore, and I was about to take out the dust and drive them away, but just as I was hesitating, Haldan cautiously approached me, poured half of the pot of hot water in my hand on me, and then motioned for me to lift my other foot and do the same.

"Oh......"

I let out a comfortable moan, a feeling of heat came from my feet, his help worked, I thanked me gratefully, but he ignored me, and pulled out a slightly smaller jar again, and walked to the Wheel King.

The Wheel King knew of his kindness, and waved his hand politely to me, signaling that Haldan should not care about him.

Hardan nodded, and continued to walk ahead and said to us, "The water in this heavenly pond is a good thing, and it may also mean that only those who have obtained the water of the heavenly pond can find the location of that village."

"Since this snow worm is so disgusting, when you first came in......" I realized that something was wrong with what I said, but Haldan had probably understood what I meant.

"We ......," he said, laughing, "and it was a man who came through carrying a man, and since I was the one who led the way, I was spared."

"Carrying people?" I frowned, and the scene seemed to replay in my mind, "So the people who came with you are all ........."

"It's dead" he spread his hands undeniably, and then changed the topic and said, "With the watering of the Tianchi water, these snow insects no longer work for us, let's go forward, it's coming soon."

I nodded to him and continued on my way.

After descending from the steep mountain top and crossing the potholes of snow, we officially stepped on the top of this frozen heavenly pool.

"Take your shoes off, quick"

Hardan suddenly spoke, and as soon as the words fell, he threw his two pairs of shoes out of the range of Tianchi.

I didn't know why, but I did it.

Hardan moved a little closer to me, and he handed me the hot water jar that the Wheel King had refused to use, and said, "This heavenly pool is the most sacred place for the people of that village, and if you step on it in filthy shoes, it will make them angry, and it is easy to bring ominousness."

"So amazing?" I pursed my lips, a little incredulous.

Hardan nodded mysteriously, and inadvertently looked at the Wheel King, revealing an expression of disbelief and surprise.

I followed his gaze, and the Wheel King seemed to be listening to the admonition here, and he actually floated up like this, making sure that his feet would not be next to the ice of Tianchi.

I had no choice but to pull Haldan's body back, change the subject and ask him, "Now, we have arrived at Tianchi, where should we go next?" ”

Haldan looked around with a look of fear on his face, and he said to me, "I remember the last time I came...... The temperature here is not so low...... And ......"

In the middle of his sentence, he suddenly paused.

"And what?" As soon as I finished asking, my feet suddenly collapsed, and out of it came a rotten white flesh arm, which grabbed my left foot at once, and there was an incomparably great force, trying to pull me into this broken heavenly pool.

"Be careful" Seeing my body falling, Hardan quickly came back to his senses, grabbed my arm, and tried to pull me out.
