Chapter Ninety-Six: See the Lord of the Snow Mountain on the Eighteenth
Qin Zhen suddenly realized, "What do you mean...... The so-called angry voice of the mountain god is actually the angry voice of Bai Ze! Is it Shirasawa's voice that determines the size and number of avalanches? ”
"I want to ...... That's how it should be. Juntian still looked intently in Yudong's direction.
"Then its roar should be considered a warning or an attack, because no one can escape the avalanche here. No one knows where they disappeared after the avalanche. So why hasn't it killed us now? It can decide the life and death of those who invade the sacred mountain, but does it still divide people? Qin Zhen asked suspiciously.
Juntian pointed to the demon slaying pestle held in Yu Dong's right hand and said, "Probably because of that thing, or maybe because of Xia Yudong, it's not easy to say at the moment." However, Bai Ze is really dividing people. Legend has it that it will only appear in a book when the Lord is born. Of course, this cannot have happened in modern times, whether it is a myth or not. Moreover, since the symbol of the demon pestle can coincide with the mysterious figure in this snowy mountain, it proves that it should belong here. Then Bai Ze has no reason not to know him, maybe that's why it didn't attack us. Otherwise, if there had just been an avalanche in that col, none of us would have escaped. ”
Qin Zhen knew that Juntian's words did not mean to be alarmist at all. Even if they have special skills, they will not be able to escape the terrifying power of nature after all. An avalanche is also known as pushing snow from a mountain, and as the name suggests, what kind of force can push a mountain down.
Avalanche can be said to be like a beautiful white death, and its speed is extremely fast. It will be like a tsunami or a volcano, roaring down from the mountains and engulfing a qiē in the blink of an eye! Forests, houses, and lives are not spared. At the same time, avalanches produce powdery and devastating snow clouds that sweep across a qiē.
A violent avalanche will bring 40 to 50 tons of force per square meter of the surface of the object being hit. There is simply no object in this world that can withstand such an impact.
Not to mention these mortals, even the Demon Lord who is out of the magic is probably no match for the power of this white god of death. Therefore, what Juntian said is not an exaggeration at all. Their climb to the mysterious snow-capped mountains of this height is itself an act that can kill them at any time.
Just as Qin Zhen was thinking about the terrifying avalanche of terror. Bai Ze's side began to move.
I saw that its dark blue eyes looked at Yu Dong fixedly for a while. Then he slowly turned and left. Its shadow glowed with a white glow, as if it was gradually merging with the snow. With a sudden gust of wind, the snow was swept up everywhere, and its figure began to blur in the blink of an eye. When they looked again, there was still the shadow of a spirit beast!
Qin Zhen and Gu Jie rubbed their eyes almost at the same time. I felt that I had just seen it wrong. But Bai Ze really disappeared in the blink of an eye! Only Yuto was left standing there. Wuzi looked down at the snow beneath his feet. The tall and thin back stood alone in the snow. It looks even colder.
Qin Zhen immediately ran over at this time and asked, "Are you okay?" How did that thing disappear? ”
Yu Dong shook his head a little blankly, still looking at the snow in front of him motionlessly. That's probably where Bai Ze 'planed' with his paws.
Qin Zhen saw that Yu Dong's appearance was not quite right, so he squatted down. Facing Yudong from Bai Ze's perspective just now, he looked at the snow.
This look made Qin Zhen suddenly surprised! It turns out that the legend that Bai Ze can speak is really not fake! It...... It actually wrote a word on the snow!
It is a traditional Dong, which is the character "東". It's just that I don't know if it's distorted because it's not convenient for beasts to write, or if it's intentional at all, in short, the proportions of this character are quite asymmetrical.
The whole vertical of the word "東" was stretched very long by it. The distance between the horizontal and the word "day" is also very long. If it weren't for the vertical string, it would be easy to misunderstand the words "one" and "day" respectively. And the one by one is very scattered, and the distance is very wide, but it is more like an "eight". Anyway, it looks like the word "東" has been dismantled and scattered.
Wait a minute...... Take the words apart? Qin Zhen suddenly raised his head and looked at Yudong! When I take the word apart...... Isn't that exactly what that nursery rhyme ......?!
Gu Jie touched his chin on the side at this time and said seriously: "Hey! That's a bad thing! This white-haired unicorn knows more words than I do! Looks like he's still a monster with a high degree of education! If I didn't know that the east wind in mahjong tiles was written like this, I'm afraid it would be enough to recognize this word! It's just that what does it mean to leave this eastern character? Do you want us to go east? Uncle's... This animal is an animal, it's so unreliable! In this white snow-capped mountain, how can there be any sense of direction at all?! Who knows which side is the east side? Eh, do you think it's ......? ”
Except for Gu Jie, a coarse-nerved, single-celled two hundred and five, everyone else slowly turned their eyes to Yudong. And there was obviously a hint of melancholy and a bit of heaviness in his eyes.
In the nursery rhyme, it is said: See the Lord of the Snow Mountain on the 18th. At first, they were most puzzled by this sentence. Now fortunately, Bai Ze's revelation has made them finally understand the meaning of the "eighteen days". It turns out that "18th" is the word "East".
But all of them vaguely felt that if these words were connected, they should be prophecy...... Yuto will see the scene of Bai Ze here today.
No wonder...... No wonder the enlightened monk would prompt them to look more at ancient Chinese prophecies. So far, the Rizhao Golden Mountain, the temple on the top of the mountain, and the scene where Yudong can see Bai Ze today have all been fulfilled one by one. Now there are only those two hexagrams left, and there is no mystery to be broken - Heavenly Thunder and Heavenly Mountain Escape.
Lao Gu saw that they were all looking at Yu Dong with heavy faces, and only then did he react in hindsight and said, "This, this doesn't mean Dong Shao, right......?" ”
Yudong raised his head and exhaled softly. The heat condensed into a thick white mist, obscuring his face, making it impossible to see his expression at the moment. After that, Yu Dong said casually: "Let's go, it is estimated that there will be more weirdness waiting for us ahead, and in the last thousand meters, we must hold on." As he spoke, he crouched down as if he had picked something up from the ground. Qin Zhen saw it clearly from the side, it seemed to be a pinch of Bai Ze's hair. I don't understand what Yudong picked it up for, is it to keep a souvenir?
I didn't say anything more, and I hurried on. The panic of this night, don't look at the big movement, but now it's close to dawn. In the distance, the white of the fish belly has appeared. However, they did not feel tired, and the closer they got to the summit, the more nervous and excited they became.
By this altitude, the air is already thin. To be honest, reaching the top in such an environment is really a task that is more painful than death. The crisp air under the snowy mountains had now turned into blades like ice blades, cutting their hearts and lungs. I can no longer experience that feeling of relaxation and happiness, but instead I feel that it is difficult to breathe every time, and every time I breathe there is a feeling of suffocation in my lungs being frozen.
No one spoke anymore, and they couldn't open their mouths at all. The cold wind made Gu Ya shut his mouth honestly. Fortunately, Juntian was very well prepared, with windproof goggles and other equipment. Otherwise, once the sun comes out in this environment, they are likely to become blind. That is, the legendary snow blindness.
It stands to reason that such symptoms should be far away from Qin Zhen and them. But now, the reality is cruel in front of us. At the moment when the sun just rose, Qin Zhen also said that he had no regrets in this life, and he was able to watch the sunrise on the top of the snow-capped mountain in his lifetime.
But when the sun fully rises, the sunlight reflects off the snow, and Akira's eyes hurt! Instantly, I felt that everything around me was white, and I couldn't see anything clearly. At this time, Yu Dong reminded him to quickly bring goggles.
It is said that there should not be such a strict zhòng in a short period of time, but the blame is on the position of the mountain they are on now. At the top of the mountain, snow and ice bloom in a dazzling brilliance. Qin Zhen thought that he had never seen snow like this in his life. It's as clear as if there are diamonds shining everywhere. Refracted by the sunlight at high altitudes, it is no wonder that the human eye that can shake cannot see anything.
Finally, I was almost at the top of the mountain. Qin Zhen's psychology even began to be a little excited and excited. How many people tried to conquer this snow-capped mountain, but unfortunately the final result was a regret for Jiuquan.
Now, a few of them are about to reach the top of this snow-capped mountain! The sacred mountain, which had never been climbed by anyone, was finally conquered under their determination to "rather die than give in...... Although it is a bit damn to think like this, but human nature, a very vulgar sense of glory still arises spontaneously.
When you look down, it's like you're standing on a cloud. The sacred Kawagebo was shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, so they could now see floating clouds and smoke all around them.
This is the real walk in the clouds and be in paradise.
The summit was about to be reached, but Juntian suddenly stopped and asked, "Yudong, do you feel that something is wrong?" ”
Yudong also stopped, looked at the ice-blue mountain top not far away, and said, "Yes." It's so calm. ”
Gu Jie was already tired and out of breath at this time, and with the help of Yudong and their stoppage, he slowed down his body, waved his hand and said, "Why did the two masters suddenly become so anxious?" This is not in line with your character of not being afraid of heaven and earth! Be calm, then prove that God helps us! That's a good thing, what do you want to do so much? ”
Before Lao Gu's words fell, they heard a faint and almost inaudible sound on the hillside under their feet at the same time...... "click". (To be continued......)
