Mt. Hachiko, known as the holy land of Echigo, is almost inaccessible because of the snow and ice in all seasons.

However, because Uesugi has a special attachment to this place, Hachikosan is listed as a sacred place by her, and as she herself said, if you come to Hako Mountain without permission, you will basically not be able to return alive.

If you don't have luck, if you come here, even if you don't starve to death and freeze to death, you will be killed by monsters and the like that haunt this place, and more importantly, in addition to the cold here, the most headache is that it has many forks in the road, and it is completely a natural labyrinth.

Once you enter the labyrinth, it is difficult to find your original position, and if so, the consequences are unknown.

And Yang Cheng, because he responded to Uesugi's request, is here today to accompany Uesugi here.

This place can't help but be strange, according to common sense, the location in this Bagong Mountain is not the north and south poles, but the copy setting is biased to give birth to this one, which is simply a pain in the eye.

It was also thanks to Yang Cheng that he had purchased some high-quality mink fur coats from the dungeon space, so it was barely bearable now. But after a long time, he really couldn't hold on.

The cold wind blows on the face, and the cold air penetrates the bones.

In this place, it is like falling into an ice cave, not to mention the rugged and slippery road, as far as the eye can see, the white expanse seems to have lost its color in the world. What's even more exaggerated is that Yang Cheng followed Uesugi left and right, and in the end he didn't even know where he went.

"Lord Qianxin, where are we going to go first, and how far do we have to go?" Yang Cheng cleared his throat and pulled the collar of his coat up a little and asked.

"According to my judgment, 2 artifacts may appear in 3 places, since Bishamen Heaven has instructions, it must be to test us, sprout, looking at your appearance, it won't be that you can't hold on, right?"

"Where...... How can it be," Yang Cheng sneered: "The weather is so cold, I'm afraid that Lord Qianxin is weak and can't stand the cold, otherwise, let's find a place to rest for a while, right?" ”

Uesugi nodded and said, "Yes, after all, it's been so long, but the first place will be there soon, sprout, can you hold on a little longer?" ”

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be fine!"

Yang Cheng patted his chest and said, "Don't underestimate me, my body is very strong, and I can't even withstand this bit of wind and frost!" ”

"That's good, just now I thought you were complaining that I brought you to this kind of place, but after thinking about it like this, I suddenly felt that my tears were about to be uncontrollable."

Hearing her say this, Yang Cheng subconsciously looked at the corner of her eye, it was really red, and he felt embarrassed in his heart, he didn't expect that the adult who had always been called a mighty military god by his opponent would have such delicate emotions in his actual daily life!

I was ashamed and said: "Lord Kenshin doesn't want to be like this, I'm happy to accompany you to this kind of place, besides, although you have always said that this is the holy place of Echigo, but I also asked Naoe-sama, I understand that you rarely come to this kind of place except for retreat, so I will not worry about letting you look for the so-called artifact alone in this kind of uninhabited place." ”

"Really?"

Uesugi said with some joy, "Sprout, thank you!" ”

"Thank you, no need, I see that your face is almost frozen blue now, didn't you say that the first place is almost there, let's hurry as soon as possible!"

According to Uesugi Kenshin's guidance, the two walked for about half a day and finally arrived at an ice cave. According to Uesugi, this is the place where she often comes to retreat when she feels distraught and depressed by Echigo politics, and she may be able to find any clues.

The ice cave is very large, because it is a retreat place for Uesugi, so there is a lot of food and some quilts here.

The two searched inside for a long time, but unfortunately, they found nothing.

Calculating the time, the two set off from Echigo early in the morning, first hurried to Bagong Mountain, and then walked for half a day on Bagong Mountain, and it was almost evening. After resting in the ice cave for a while, I looked at the sky outside, and it was almost silent.

At this time, except for the sunset that is about to set, the biting cold wind blows more violently, and there are still some snowflakes in between, which seems to be a sign of snow.

"No......" Yang Cheng smiled bitterly, the environment here is already bad enough, if there is another snowstorm, it is very likely that it will be completely stranded here.

"Lord Kenshin, it seems that we have to stay in this ice cave for the night, it is snowing outside, and we can't hurry at the moment."

"Well, there is no trace of the artifact found in the first place, presumably in the second place."

Uesugi replied, "The second place is also about a day's trip from here, and it is the place where I have been worshipping Bishamonten, although the distance is not too far, but the road is too rough, and it is really not suitable for hurrying at the moment. ”

Yang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Then it's decided, let's rest here for one night today, and if the snow stops tomorrow morning, we will continue to hurry." By the way, I heard your stomach rumbling just now, and now you must be very hungry, right? ”

"In order to follow the will of Bishamentian to find the artifact, even if I am hungry, I can hold on!"

"That's not good!"

Yang Cheng didn't say a word, he first bought a set of simple pots and pans and oil, salt, sauce and vinegar condiments from the space, because this ice cave stored a batch of grains and vegetables, so it was still possible to boil some simple porridge and vegetables.

While busy lighting the fire, Yang Cheng went to look at the quilts stored here, and after seeing them, he suddenly began to feel sorry for the woman next to him.

"You don't live in such an environment every time you're in retreat, are you?"

Touching the cold quilt, Yang Cheng felt that he couldn't stand it as a big man, and such a delicate girl actually suffered so much about herself, she couldn't understand it at all.

"It's just a little patience, I won't care!"

"But I care!"

Yang Cheng wanted to say this, but seeing Uesugi's determined expression, he opened his mouth and said: "In such a harsh environment, the quilt is frozen into ice cubes, and if the body can't warm and live blood, it's easy to get cold, do you know?" ”

"Hmm-"

Uesugi half-covered his lips with his right hand, and a hint of shy joy flashed across his expression.

"Well, should I call you stupid or should I call you simple?"

Yang Cheng sighed, and without saying a word, he bought seven or eight sets of quilts from the space, if you want to say that this space is produced, it must be a high-quality product, and a random set of quilts is definitely warm, just for the woman in front of him, he feels that this is far from enough.

Laying out the quilt in a corner sheltered from the wind, Yang Cheng started a charcoal fire next to him, and it was not until he was sure that he couldn't feel the wind chill outside in the cave at all, and he finally let go.

"Come here, sit here, it's warm here!" Yang Cheng greeted Uesugi.

Uesugi was full of shame and sat down on top of the quilt very obediently.

"I don't know why you have to come here to retreat and pray, but you obviously feel wronged by yourself, right?"

"As long as I can protect Echigo and protect the world, even if I am wronged, it is nothing!"

Yang Cheng's mind was about to turn around, "This ...... and Guardian ...... It doesn't matter, right? ”

"No!" Uesugi said with a resolute expression: "I came here just to reflect on whether I have upheld the righteousness of Bishamentian, whether I have caused trouble to the people, and whether I have done a good job as a monarch. ”

"Then you wouldn't abuse yourself, would you?" Yang Cheng sighed.

"Sprout, thank you for your concern for me, but you must know that in the era of war, everyone is miserable. However, some people always forcibly inflict their suffering on others who suffer the same as him for their own benefit, and it is precisely because of this that the despair in the world will gather more and more, and the original suffering world will eventually become purgatory. And I am at the behest of Bishamon to punish these people who do not obey righteousness and restore the world to peace! So, if I can see more clearly and more thoroughly, what are these difficult conditions? ”

"Okay, okay, anyway, I can't mean you, but I don't care what you did before, but this time it's different, now we're here to find an artifact, not for you to reflect, so you have to listen to me, don't disobey me, don't abuse yourself, you know?"

"Hmm-I see," Uesugi looked at Yang Cheng with his eyes, looking like a little girl.

Yang Chengzhen doesn't know what is going to happen to this copy, when it comes to Uesugi, her combat power is absolutely off the charts, but the main god setting is too exaggerated, how can such a military god-like character be like a blank sheet of paper?

"By the way, love has already told me, she said that if you give me a ring, the relationship between the two of us will be formalized, so, can we also do what you and Lord Uluzer do together?"

"What did you do with Uluze?"

Yang Cheng was full of question marks, what did he do with Wu Luze?

Seeing that Yang Cheng's face was full of doubts, Uesugi continued to add: "It's what you and Uruze did together in the barracks that day, I heard that you seemed to be very happy, so, although I don't know what you did, can we do it too?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Yang Cheng almost knelt down.

He really wanted to shout: Sister, can you not just say such a shameful thing like a nobody?

This situation, this words, including the expectant eyes, the combined lethality is no less than the thunder and the earth's fire, it is completely out of control!

"Sprout, if I'm not qualified enough, I'll work hard...... I'll try to get you to agree with me! Uesugi pursed his lips and lowered his eyes.

Yang Cheng: "......"
