Chapter 457: Snow Shadow Manor

As soon as we entered, we brought in a cold wind, and the lying man suddenly opened his eyes, and then alertly picked up the steel fork at hand and stood up.

He looked like he was in his thirties. He was wrapped in animal skins, and his hair and beard were shaggy and completely unkempt, but I was surprised by the ghostly aura of his body.

I also took a special look at his feet, and he wasn't floating, so he wasn't a ghost.

"This big brother, you don't have to panic first, we just want to come in to avoid the wind and snow, and we don't want to disturb your sleep." Ling Xiao said politely.

After hearing this, the man looked at us one by one, and then put down the steel fork in his hand, "Then sit down." ”

Red Flame lay at the mouth of the cave. We sat around the fire and felt warmer and more grounded.

To be honest, this person doesn't make me feel bad. At least he's willing to take us in and take shelter from the snow, and he's certainly not a mean person.

I thought there was nothing to give to someone to express my gratitude, so I took out the warm-up wine and handed it to him. He also looked like a cheerful person, not very polite, took a sip of it, and praised it again and again, "Good wine!" Wine! ”

We were all curious about this man and didn't know why he was in this cave, but before I could say anything, he asked us first.

"What are you doing in the mountains?"

I thought about it for a moment. moved out of the tried and tested good reason, "We came to play with the princess of Snowpiercer." Dare to ask the eldest brother's name? ”

He looked at a few of us thoughtfully and smiled slightly, "Hehe." ”

Hey! A look of seeing through and not saying anything. Does he know I'm making up reasons?

"Just call me Rumon." Huge blood.

"Then Brother Rumon, why are you here?" Yujie looked at the man in front of her curiously.

He took a sip of wine, and did not hasten to answer, but took a skinned hare from the thatched pile beside him and placed it on the shelf on the fire. The big head hasn't eaten meat for a long time, and his eyes are straight.

"I'm a hunter, and I'm here to hunt in this mountain." He stared at the fire and said lightly.

Hunter? Why do you go to this kind of place to hunt, is it possible that the rabbits on this mountain are better than other places? Fur warmer than elsewhere? If he came from somewhere else, then wouldn't he have encountered those unjust souls, and I don't know if the unjust souls have stopped him.

Although I have a lot of doubts in my mind, I feel that this person will not take us lightly even if he knows. I decided to get acquainted with him first, and then talk about it.

The others are not stupid, Ling Xiao and I don't ask, and no one squeaks.

I noticed that he had always been interested in Ling Xiao's weapons. I really wanted to take it over and take a look, Ling Xiao hesitated, but still handed it to him.

This Lumon has such an eye for weapons, coupled with that ghostly aura, and now he is an ordinary hunter, I really don't believe it.

Lu Meng observed the two-handed sword for a while, sighed several times, and then returned it to Ling Xiao.

At this moment, the big head has been staring directly at other people's barbecue, and there is nothing else in his eyes.

Lu Meng also saw it, looked at the big head with a smile, skimmed off a roasted rabbit leg and handed it to the big head, "Eat, little brother." ”

The big head pretended to refuse, and immediately took it and gnawed it, and then it was as if he had suddenly become a mature person with Lu Meng, "Brother Lu Meng, have you always lived on this mountain?" Or are you trapped in a blizzard like us? ”

Lu Meng told him that he had always lived here, and that he drank snow water and ate barbecue every day.

The big head was envious when he heard this, "Eat barbecue every day, big brother, you have a very nourishing life!" ”

I looked at the greedy look of the big head, "What? Or do you stay? The big head hurriedly shook his head, his naΓ―ve appearance amused Yujie and Qingxue.

We rested for a while, and when we saw that the snow had not stopped, I asked Rumeng if he knew what was on the top of the mountain.

He looked at me with an incredulous expression, "Hehe, you guys didn't even know what was on the mountain, so you came?" ”

I was laughed at by him, and I also felt that I had no clue about this question, and I confessed to him that I really didn't know, and I was very curious.

"Actually, there is a manor on the top of this mountain, called Snow Shadow Manor."

I remembered the candle flame I saw in the white crystal, so it must have come from the manor. So I asked who this Snow Shadow Manor belonged to, and how it was built on this steep mountain.

"I don't think you really know, but it's normal. Although it claims to be a manor, it is actually an academy, and few people in the demon world know about it. ”

No wonder Luda didn't know what was on it, but as soon as he said about the Academy, I could understand why the unjust spirits said we were freshmen.

"And what are the professors in this academy?" Ling Xiao asked curiously.

"Ghost Dao, all kinds of ghost Dao knowledge."

I didn't expect there to be such a place in the demon world, and he saw that we were very curious, so he said more.

It turns out that Snow Shadow Manor regularly sends masters who teach ghost ways to select apprentices throughout the demon world, and those who are selected will come to this mountain top to learn the art of ghost ways first, and then take exams after learning. Those who pass the exam will stay, and those who fail will be eliminated directly.

He looked at our reactions and then asked me, "When you first came up, you must have met those unjust spirits, right?" ”

I nodded, "You know them too?" What the hell is going on with those unjust souls? ”

"They're the ones who got out."

Yujie looked at Lu Meng in surprise, "If you can't pass the test, you're going to die?" And such a school? ”

I said in my heart that you didn't fail in college as soon as you saw it, and I was scared like this.

Lu Meng pursed his lips, "Although it's cruel, but there is no way, this is the rule of Snow Shadow Manor, the owner of the manor doesn't want others to know about the storage here, and if he is not qualified, he can't go back to the original place." But even so, there are people who are willing to come and learn. ”

I think of the dense unjust souls, it turns out that they are all dead apprentices, and it's quite pitiful to think about, but it also shows that the assessment is very strict, and there are not many people who can pass.

As for the reason why the souls of those dead apprentices are not gone, I guess it has something to do with some kind of ghost path cast in the Snow Shadow Manor.

"What about after you pass the test? What will the apprentices do? "Ling Xiao asked a question that we are all concerned about, if the original intention of this Snow Shadow Manor is good, then the apprentices cultivated must also do good deeds, otherwise, it is likely that they have cultivated a group of devils who plague the evil ghost world.

Some of our apprentices would stay in the manor and continue to study the art of the ghost path and teach new apprentices, some would go to other countries to work for the king, and some would go out and live in seclusion, but none of them would say that they had studied here.

When the big head heard this, he waved the rabbit leg and said, "Isn't this a mysterious spy school!" ”

Although the big head said it like a joke, in fact, this is also the feeling that Snow Shadow Manor gave me. Needless to say, there are definitely a lot of experts in it, and we have to face a lot of challenges this time.

I saw that the question was almost over, and the blizzard outside the cave was over, so I stood up and said goodbye to Rumon.

"Thank you for telling us so much, we should continue to go up the mountain."

"I've told you so, and you want to go up?"

Actually, I know that it is risky to break into such a place so rashly, but there must be something strange in it, and we must do it. I asked him if there was any good excuse for Snow Shadow Manor to accept us if we had to go.

"You can be said to have come to learn the art of ghosts, but their principle is to resolutely refuse to accept them and come to the door on their own initiative, so I don't dare to guarantee that they will not accept you."

I said in my heart that there are so many strange rules in this manor, but I am also suddenly curious, how does this Rumon know so many things?

He persuaded us two more words, it was nothing more than that it was too dangerous not to go or anything, but seeing that we were very firm, he didn't say anything more, but picked up the steel fork and walked quickly to the entrance of the cave.

He slammed the steel fork into the ground, and Red Flame stood up, I told Red Flame not to worry, and then asked Lu Meng what this meant.

"Before you leave, why don't you talk to me first."

A hunter is still so aggressive? I knew that he appeared in this cave, and I knew so much about Snow Shadow Manor, this person must not be simple.
