Chapter Twenty-Eight—The Trial of the Ice Cave (Part II)

Chi Muyan and Hong Jiu'er finished teasing Hong Shiyan, and at the same time turned around and covered their mouths and snickered, and then continued to walk towards the inside of the cave, Hong Shiyan was behind them, and glanced at the snow spider helplessly, so he could only take the snow spider to follow their footsteps and continue to move forward.

There was nothing to say all the way, and the three of them didn't know how long they had walked, but the civet cat who was originally lying on the head of the cloud lion and closed its eyes suddenly got up, patted the cloud lion twice on the head with its front paws, and meowed twice, and the cloud lion also stopped and responded to the civet in a low voice.

Hong Shiyan looked at this scene and asked Chi Muyan curiously, "What are they talking about?"

Chi Muyan also stopped, at this time Yun Shi had lowered his head on the ground and continued to walk in one direction following the smell, Chi Muyan replied to Hong Shiyan while following Yun Shi, "Don't care so much about other people's privacy, and you don't know if you follow the past." ”

So the three of them and a spider continued to follow the cloud lion who was sniffing on the ground, and after walking for a while, they came to a fork, and there were five ice caves of the same size in front of them, at this time the civet jumped down from the head of the cloud lion, ran to the five holes and meowed, and then immediately listened attentively, and after trying all the five holes, he ran to one of the holes and barked at the cloud lion, the cloud lion listened to the call of the civet, and also walked over, and after sniffing carefully around the hole, he roared at Chi Muyan and flicked his tail into the hole。 Chi Muyan also understood what Yun Shi meant, so he called out to the two behind him to enter the fork in the road together.

Although the entrance of this fork was much narrower than the ice cave that he had just walked through, the more he walked in, the more open the fork became, and after walking for a while, it actually returned to the width of the original straight road, and at this time, Hong Shiyan suddenly found that there was a ball of white gas floating in front of them in their direction.

When he smelled the smell of hot springs in the white air, Hong Shiyan said in surprise: "Chi Muyan, your spirit beast is still of such use, and you can still find a hot spring?"

Ji Muyan replied as he continued to walk forward, "My spirit beast doesn't just have the ability to find hot springs. ”

As the three of them spoke, they followed the cloud lion into the misty area ahead, and after walking for a while, the three of them came to a steaming lake, and the air around them also warmed up.

Chi Muyan glanced around, and saw that there didn't seem to be any danger, so he turned his head to the two behind him and said, "It seems to be safer here, let's rest here first." ”

However, before Chi Muyan's words fell, the lake behind him tumbled violently as if it was boiling, and then a giant beast broke through the water, only to see that this giant beast first jumped high with a light step on the water, raised its head in the air and roared, and fell heavily in front of the three of them.

At this time, the three of them saw clearly through the light on Chi Muyan's staff at the same time, the giant beast that jumped out of the hot spring lake was actually a snow unicorn, only to see that its size was three times the size of the cloud lion, and its whole body was also covered with a layer of solid light blue scales, Hong Shiyan's snow spider saw such a big beast suddenly emerging in the water, and was so frightened that it immediately hid behind him, while Chi Muyan's two summoned spirit beasts rushed to the front row without fear and roared threateningly at the snow qilin.

Hong Shiyan was so angry that he kicked lightly on the snow spider's leg and scolded: "You are unproductive, you are also a summoning beast, look at the two of them." ”

The snow spider also shrank behind him aggrievedly, but Chi Muyan explained to Hong Shiyan with a smile: "You can't blame it, this snow unicorn usually eats snow spiders as snacks." ”

At this moment, the snow qilin suddenly raised its head and roared, the roar was so loud that even the entire ice cave began to shake with the roar, and there were constantly broken ice slags falling from the top of the cave, and the broken ice fell while reflecting the white light used for lighting on the staff of Chi Muyan, and scattered into seven-colored light among the countless broken ice, and for a while, the empty cave interior was rendered magnificently by these countless colored light points.

Hong Jiu'er and Hong Shiyan were attracted by the dreamlike scene in front of them, and stayed in place in a daze, but Chi Muyan suddenly noticed something unusual, and hurriedly shouted to the two behind him: "Hurry up and close your eyes! This is an illusion created by the snow qilin using broken ice!"

Hearing Chi Muyan's shout, the two of them reacted at the same time, how could the little light on Chi Muyan's staff illuminate such a large cave, so they quickly closed their eyes, but Hong Shiyan quickly reacted that the situation was wrong, so he asked in a low voice: "Hey, Chi Muyan, you let us all close our eyes, in case that thing pounces, we won't just make it breakfast?"

At this time, I only heard Chi Muyan step on the broken ice that fell on the ground and replied to him: "Even if it is going to be eaten, it should be considered lunch now, and you don't know, my profession is actually a summoner?"

Hong Shiyan forgot to close his eyes in surprise after listening to his words, staring at Chi Muyan with wide eyes, only to see him walking slowly in front of the snow qilin on the broken ice on the ground in this dreamlike light, and looked at it with four eyes, the snow qilin watched Chi Muyan slowly approach him, and began to raise his front hooves irritably and stomp on the ground, and then let out a few angry roars towards Chi Muyan, but Chi Muyan stood down in front of the snow qilin without fear, and continued to look up at its huge blue eyes.

After a few more deafening roars, the snow qilin gradually quieted down, and finally lowered his head and stared at Chi Muyan tightly, the surrounding colorful light gradually disappeared and retreated, and the cave darkened again, leaving only the little light on Chi Muyan's staff, and Chi Muyan still continued to look at each other silently with the snow qilin.

Hong Shiyan looked at it for a while, carefully poked Hong Jiu'er beside him with a finger, and asked quietly: "Look, what are the two of them doing?

Hong Jiu'er listened to Hong Shiyan's words, also opened his eyes and took a look, glanced at Hong Shiyan, and scolded in a low voice: "What kind of big eyes and small eyes, this is called induction, not only the summoner has to sense the strength of the summoned beast, but many summoned spirit beasts will also sense the strength of their master before being subdued, didn't Master Hong tell us all these before, where are all the things you learned?"

As soon as Hong Jiu'er's words fell, he saw Xue Qilin let out another low roar, and then slowly lowered his head, and spit out a crystal clear spirit summoning stone on the palm of Chi Muyan's outstretched hand to it, Chi Muyan took the spirit summoning stone, gently bit his fingers, and dripped blood on the spirit summoning stone, and then whispered softly, "With my blood contract, call your body, the contract is established." ”

With Chi Muyan's soft groan, the Spirit Summoning Stone emitted a burst of dazzling green light, and those green lights gradually spread out, enveloping the entire Snow Qilin inside. After the green light dissipated, the snow unicorn also changed its fierce appearance just now, shook its head, shook its tail, and lowered its head to sniff the cloud lion on the side, and the cloud lion also rubbed the snow unicorn's head with his head in a friendly manner, just like friends greeting each other.

Hong Shiyan next to him was dumbfounded, Chi Muyan walked up to him with a smile and patted him on the shoulder, "How about it, my cloud lion will not only find a hot spring, but also find a powerful summoned beast for me!"

Although Chi Muyan said it very easily, it still consumed a lot of mana to subdue a spirit beast of the level of the snow qilin, so he walked to the steaming lake, reached down and tested the water temperature, smiled with satisfaction, and then sat down by the lake, took off his boots, pulled up his trousers and hung his feet into the warm lake water, and turned his head to the two people who were still staring at the snow qilin and shouted, "Hey! When are you two going to see it, now that the snow unicorn is here, and the other beasts don't dare to come in, let's take a rest here first, eat something to recover our strength. ”

Hong Shiyan was stunned again when he heard Chi Muyan's words, "Eat, what are you eating? We didn't bring anything...... the words didn't fall, but saw that Chi Muyan had already taken out a roast chicken at some point, and was tearing off a chicken leg to gnaw, Hong Shiyan had already felt unbearable hunger in his belly, and he rushed over and was about to reach out to take it, "Eh, you actually brought a roast chicken! Divide me quickly, I'm already hungry." ”

Chi Muyan slapped away Hong Shiyan's outstretched hand, then took the chicken leg he was gnawing on just now with his mouth, and tore off another chicken leg and handed it to Hong Jiu'er who came over, and then handed the rest to Hong Shiyan, and then took out a few baked cakes from his spiritual wrap and gave them to the two, and finally sighed: "It seems that after I go back, I will not only upgrade your equipment, but also train your ability to survive in the wild." ”

Hong Shiyan munched on the roast chicken and asked Chi Muyan: "We've been walking here for a long time, why haven't we seen the exit yet?" I see that there is a look everywhere in this ice cave, we can't be lost, right?"

Chi Muyan had already finished gnawing on the chicken legs, washed his hands in the warm lake water, and replied, "Canglan has been in this for three days before turning out, and you only want to go out after walking for half a day?"

Hong Shiyan thought for a moment, "Didn't you say he was alone? There are three of us now!"

Chi Muyan glanced at him and asked rhetorically, "Are you like him who can rely on smell to discern directions, or do you rely on hearing and intuition to avoid traps?"

Hong Shiyan lowered his head and thought for a while, feeling as if he couldn't do both, so he looked at Hong Jiu'er beside him, "Little one, aren't you also from the cat clan?

Hong Jiu'er glanced at him, "You are still the dragon clan of the main lineage! Why don't you learn from Canglan!"

Hong Shiyan retorted: "Although I am a dragon clan, I have been thrown out since I was a child, otherwise I would not have been picked up by Master Hong, and now the dragon clan has nothing to do with me at all, okay!"

Between the two of them, Chi Muyan had put on his boots again, walked to the exit of the cave and shouted to Hong Jiu'er: "Jiu'er, you ride my cloud lion, and the road behind you is taken by the snow qilin, you should be able to go out soon." ”

Hong Shiyan saw that each of them had a mount, and immediately shouted at them eagerly: "Eh, you guys wait, then what should I do?"

Chi Muyan mouthed at the snow spider Nunu, who was being frightened by the snow qilin and shrunk into a ball in the other corner of the cave, "Don't you have your own mount?"

After Chi Muyan's snow unicorn walked away, the snow spider crawled out of the corner, let Hong Shiyan sit on its back, trembling and following far behind, Hong Shiyan looked at the pitiful appearance of the snow spider and couldn't bear it, so he sighed, patted it on the back, and comforted: "It's okay, let them open the way in front first, and let's follow behind and climb slowly." ”
