Chapter 334: Natural Ice Cellar
"Erniang!"
Seeing Kong Qing agree, Chen Qian shouted out of the door.
An old woman in her sixties walked in, and she could see that she was also working, and her wet hands were repeatedly wiped on her waist as soon as she walked in.
"Erniang, they just arrived, you lead them to settle down, and then tell them what to do," Chen Qian instructed.
The old woman glanced at Chen Qian, and then beckoned to Yuan Yuanxiang, "Let's go, girl"
"Hmm," Yuan Yuanxiang nodded and hurriedly greeted him.
Kong Qing naturally could only follow behind the old woman and Yuan Yuanxiang, and only glanced back at Chen Qian when he stepped out of the threshold, the latter smiled at Kong Qing, and Kong Qing followed.
When she came to the private housing area, the old woman led Kong Qing and Yuan Yuanxiang to a house, and after opening the door, she thought for a while and asked Yuan Yuanxiang, "Girl, are you husband and wife?"
"Ah, mother-in-law......" Hearing the old woman ask like this, Yuan Yuanxiang blushed, hurriedly waved her hand, and whispered back, "He is my junior brother......"
Seeing Yuan Yuanxiang's panicked and dodging eyes, the old woman didn't continue to ask, and after chuckling, she took out a key and handed it to Kong Qing, "This room will be handed over to you."
"Thank you, mother-in-law," Kong Qing hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
"This is yours, this" The old woman took out another key and handed it to Yuan Yuanxiang, and at the same time pointed to the house behind her, and Yuan Yuanxiang immediately caught it.
"You'll all be here all this time," the old woman continued.
Yuan Yuanxiang nodded, "Well, I will stay for half a month"
The old woman nodded before she said, "In our place, men and women do different things, women need to take care of the medicine fields every day, and men need to go to the ice cellar over there to take care of the elixir in the ice cellar."
glanced at Yuan Yuanxiang, and after feeling the gaze, Yuan Yuanxiang also glanced back at Kong Qing.
"I'll go and get busy first if there's nothing to do, you go into the house and see if there's anything you need, and then you can find me in the lobby," the old woman asked and left here.
Kong Qing shrugged before entering his room.
There is only one bed, a table and a cabinet in the room, and then a simple wash.
Because they had to stay here for half a month, Kong Qing and Yuan Yuanxiang didn't think about spending a lot of time cultivating, and after walking around outside, they returned to their rooms separately.
On the second day, Kong Qing and Yuan Yuanxiang couldn't wait to finish washing up early, then opened the door and walked outside the house with the others, and after receiving breakfast, they returned to the room to solve breakfast, and after cleaning up, they would follow everyone to the ice cellar.
Yuan Yuanxiang naturally followed the women and a small number of men who had not cultivated the source power to the large medicine field over there.
"Hey, that, what's your name!"
Just as Kong Qing was following behind the large group of men, he heard the call of someone behind him.
Kong Qing turned around puzzled, looked around and pointed at himself suspiciously, and asked, "Are you calling me?"
The man is only in his twenties, which is relatively young, dressed in a very ordinary cloth clothes, and his facial features are relatively upright, so he looks ordinary.
"Of course," the man nodded, and said with a smile, "What is your name when you came to Lingcheng?"
"Kong Qing," Kong Qing replied softly.
"Oh" Chen Xian nodded silently, remembering Kong Qing's name, and continued to ask with interest, "If you can come to us, you are also a martial artist."
Kong Qing scratched his head and nodded very twistedly, it was the first time he met such an enthusiastic peer as Chen Xian, "um" second Chinese network
"Seeing that you are still nervous, don't worry, we are all very talkative" Chen Xian patted Kong Qing's shoulder again, smiled freely, and continued, "The ice cellar is fun, you will know when you go"
The distance from the sleeping place to the ice cellar was only ten minutes, and at this time, Kong Qing saw the appearance of this huge ice cellar in front of him.
The entrance of the ice cellar is as smooth as a mirror, coupled with the imprint of the morning sun at this moment, through the hard ice crystals, many colorful brilliance are printed on the other side of the ice cellar, and when you look up, the entire ice cellar is also five or six zhang high, this is only the entrance, but what makes Kong Qing puzzled is that there is no cold here.
"Bang"
Chen Xian stretched out his hand and put it on Kong Qing's shoulder, and said with a smile, "You'll know when you go in, you can't see anything outside, haha"
Turning his head to look at Chen Xian, with a happy smile on his face, Kong Qingcai nodded and followed.
Follow the artificially carved ice steps, all the way down, just like a huge cave, the entire ice cave does not need any open flame lighting, and the faint source light emitted by some ordinary elixirs on the two walls still illuminates the entire ice cellar transparently.
The further down he went, the more incredible Kong Qing felt, the walls were covered with thick ice dust, and there were a large number of ice picks hanging on the top of the ice cellar.
The ice cellar is full of pieces of elixir, most of them are human-level elixirs, of course, you can also see very few ground-level elixirs, but the ground-level elixirs in this location are relatively ordinary, and the market price is at most more than one million.
And when he walked here, Kong Qing began to feel bursts of biting air spread throughout his body, and unconsciously, Kong Qing had begun to use his source power to resist the cold wind in the ice cellar.
When they walked here, many people had already picked up some tools placed around and started to take care of these elixirs, Chen Xian walked up to Kong Qing and smiled, "We are here, you have to remember, the bottom of the ice cellar, we can't go"
"Okay, I see, thank you", seeing that Chen Xian had already picked up a bag of special powder, Kong Qingcai followed.
"What is this?" Squatting on the ground, he saw Chen Xian smearing the powder in the bag on the elixir.
Chen Xian glanced at Kong Qing, grinned, and then handed the bag into Kong Qing's hand, "Take it, you try it, it's very simple"
After taking it, Kong Qing found that these special powders were all the powder of the source stone, and each grain contained a little source power, and it was precisely to improve the medicinal power of the elixir when it was applied to it.
On the other side, Chen Xian had already picked up a knife again, and made many small cuts on each elixir, which made him very puzzled, "Won't you make the elixir lose its medicinal power by doing this?"
Hearing this, Chen Xian raised his head and smiled, "Of course not, this is an ice cellar, you can collect your source power and take a look, you won't be able to hold on to two breaths at most."
Kong Qing still didn't believe in the evil gathering power, and at this moment, the temperature of the skin on his body instantly dropped to the lowest, and then he could clearly see that a thin layer of fine Xiaoice crystals had been covered on his face and hands, and it was biting cold!
"Hiss......" took a breath of cold air, and Kong Qing hurriedly ran the source force.
Seeing Kong Qing's appearance, Chen Xian couldn't help laughing, "What's the matter, I didn't lie to you, the temperature here is actually very low, you are not from our village, and outside you, you will operate a trace amount of source power almost all the time, so as soon as you walk inside, you will habitually operate the source force, and after using the source force for a long time, we have forgotten our most basic appearance."
Hearing this, Kong Qing was stunned at first, and then quickly recovered, smiled bitterly, and said lightly, "It's not, but I see that you are all different, except for under the ice cellar, you rarely use source power."
Chen Xian sighed and said lightly, "Actually, I have always had a question, you said that martial artists are the same as ordinary people, and it is already very good to live for nothing in their lives, but why do so many people still practice so hard all their lives?"
Looking at Chen Xian's gaze, Kong Qing fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he raised his head and said with a wry smile, "It's to conform to the laws of this world."
After finishing speaking, Kong Qing took the powder and continued to apply it.
"Regular......" looked at Kong Qing very incomprehensibly, and after thinking about it for a while, Chen Xian didn't come up with anything, and then said, "The elixir down here, temperature is the nutrient for growth!"
"Temperature, isn't it these ice?" Kong Qingyi colded me.
Chen Xian waved his hand and said while fiddling with the elixir, "You still need to think about it, what ice have you ever seen that can be used as source soil?"
Hearing this, Kong Qing suddenly opened up, the ice here is formed because of the environment here, these ice layers themselves do not have source power, most of the source power contained in the entire ice cellar is the piercing ice energy in the entire ice cellar, and it is not these ice layers that nourish the elixir in the ice cellar, it is also the cold ice energy in the ice cellar, and these ice energy are like the source soil outside.
"The ice cellar creates layers of thick ice, the thick ice causes the temperature here to be much lower than the outside, the ice gives life to these elixirs, and the cold energy allows these cold attribute elixirs to quickly increase their medicinal power."
