Chapter 88: White Frost (3)

【Bone Country/White Eagle Xuandu/Skeleton Top】

War clouds practice swords between the tops of the bones.

The heavy sword that was held with both hands was not even a treasure weapon, and it was transformed into a bone country mystic weapon by the apocalypse weapon, and the sword body was no longer the snow and cold side of the Western Regions, but showed a gray-black and heavy color.

That day, Prince Xuan lightly touched the sword, and the black totem of the Xuanji Poison Python immediately climbed on the sword.

The heavy sword does not pay attention to light and elegant, the heavy sword has no edge, and it is not skillful. The essence of the heavy sword is in that blunt and simple swing, slash and smash.

In the more than 20 years in the Western Regions, Zhan Yun got up on time to practice his sword every time the sky dawned.

I don't practice any magnificent sword arts, just practice the "Seventeen Styles of Heavy Weapons" that everyone in the Western Regions knows.

In these more than 20 years of practice, he has developed a body of steel and copper bones, and muscles as strong as iron. I can't change this habit of morning exercise.

In the Western Regions, the one who practiced the "Seventeen Styles of Heavy Weapons" with him every day was the arrogant prince of the Western Regions.

The tacit understanding of practice that has not been stated for more than 20 years, the posture of the two people wielding the knife is not the slightest difference, and the silhouette can be stacked into one person.

Zhan Yun put down his heavy sword, and someone beside him had already handed him a cold and moist cotton towel and gently wiped his body for him.

"I'll do it myself. ”

Zhan Yun was not used to Yi Nu's gentle technique, she wiped her body for the first time, and the gentle and slow twisting technique made the man have goosebumps.

He took the cotton towel from Yi Nu's hand, and after casually rubbing a few handfuls on his naked upper body, Yi Nu had already taken a black armor robe of a bone clan soldier and put it on for Zhan Yun.

"Today's grandfather in charge sent a can of high-grade Ruiyan tea, and the slave made a big pot full of tea, and ran to the Hengshui in the west of the city with the teapot in his arms, which was cool but not cold, just to quench his thirst!"

Yi Nu smiled, with a bit of coquettishness in her tone.

"Are you tired?" Zhan Yun said as he got dressed.

Yi Nu stood beside him, his reddish hands behind him, smiling and shaking his head. In early autumn, Hengshui was cold, and it was the best way to make cold and hot tea, but it froze her hands very lightly.

Zhan Yun walked towards his residence, and Yi Nu hurriedly followed, "Childe, the slave has sorted out all the books that Childe wants to read, and Childe can read slowly while using tea." ”

"Thank you. Zhan Yun smiled at Yi Nu and didn't say much.

There is a trace of care in his heart about this bone woman, but he can't express it, and it is impossible for him to express it.

If he hadn't cared, he wouldn't have asked for her name.

【Skeleton Top/Battle Cloud Beginning to Bone Country Day】

On the day Zhan Yun threw off his mask, he hugged Yi Nu to sleep, and he hugged it so lightly.

"What's your name?" Zhan Yun asked, bowing his head and burying his nose in her hair.

"Back to Gongzi's words, the slave is called Heng Ji, a slave born on the bank of Hengshui. The woman meekly leaned into his arms and added, "Take this name." ”

In the middle of the night when the cold invaded her clothes, Zhan Yun felt that she was like a soft stove, and it seemed that there was something more than a stove.

"Take it all?"

"The ...... of the month Well...... There were thirty-seven of them. Heng Ji thought for a moment and said with a smile.

What Yi Nu didn't expect was that her words, which were quite common in the Bone Country, made the man's calm gaze move.

"Why are you so afraid of the world?" Zhan Yun asked again.

He visibly felt the "stove" in his arms tremble for a while after hearing the name.

Zhan Yun patted her trembling shoulder: "Needless to say, if you're afraid." ”

【Skeleton Top/Present】

In fact, there was no need for Heng Ji to speak, Zhan Yun also understood why this slave who was not afraid of death would be so afraid of the Duo Yizhen of the Geshiduo family.

This is exactly the same as the fear and hatred of ghosts among the people of the Western Regions.

If ghosts are in the Western Regions, they are synonymous with cruelty and fear, and the same is true for Duo Yizhen in the Bone Country.

In the Western Regions, Duo Yizhen hated the deserters of the Western Regions the most, followed by ghosts and ghost countries.

Why? Because Duo Yizhen never treated ghosts as human beings.

If a large part of the reason why a small number of soldiers in the Western Regions military camp hunted the people of the Bone Country was to invite merit, then Duo Yizhen was completely for fun.

More than half of the heinous cruel punishments in the Western Regions were studied by the prince of the Western Regions from the ghosts while laughing.

In the past, Zhan Yun, and even Duo Yizhen's righteous and awe-inspiring father, Duo Yiba, thought that Duo Yizhen's behavior was not inappropriate.

Aren't these all ghosts?

But now Zhan Yun found that he knew too little about this ghost country called the Bone Country.

Zhanyun walked back to the room and sat down at the table.

Sure enough, just as Heng Ji said, Heng Ji had already neatly placed all the scrolls that Zhan Yun had recently read on the table, and next to the scroll was a pot of turquoise tea, and there were fine droplets of water condensed on the teapot.

Prince Xuan thought that this slave would not live more than one night, but he miscalculated. This slave not only survived that night, but also accompanied Zhan Yun intact to this day.

Heng Ji carefully poured the tea into the cup and pushed it to Zhan Yun's hand.

In the past few days, Zhanyun has studied the Bone Country, learned that the Bone Country has three vertical, three horizontal and six rivers, and divides the Bone Country into sixteen states.

These six rivers are: Oak River, Yun River, Ling River, Heng River, Luo River, and Qing River.

There is a branch of the Heng River, which is called Hengshui. This is what Heng Ji specially told Zhan Yun.

Why is the country of bones called bones? The country of bones is full of bone ornaments? Even the houses are decorated with bones or piled up with bones like the top of the bones?

Zhan Yun learned that this was because the Bone Kingdom believed that the souls of the clansmen were immortal after death, and that the souls of the undead could give strength to the living.

This power is in the bones.

The religious beliefs of the Bone Country are very similar to those of the Western Regions, and there are no humanoid gods.

The god of the Western Regions "Shazu" is the great desert at his feet, and the god of the Bone Country "Skeleton Master" is the bones of all the dead. There are similarities.

There are spirit beasts in the Apocalypse, there are also mysterious beasts in the Bone Country, there are legends of the Ancient Spirit Beast King in the Apocalypse, and there are also ancient Mysterious Beast Kings in the Bone Country.

However, there is only one Ancient Mysterious Beast King in the Bone Country: the Xuanji Poisonous Python. It is rumored that it looks like a dragon but not a dragon, and a snake but not a snake.

If these weren't scary enough, then Zhan Yun also discovered a rather special thing, the spiritual power of the Apocalypse is divided into seven levels:

The first-class Qiyuan, the second-class Yuanxin, the third-class Kaiji, the fourth-class Kaiyun, the fifth-class Kuotian, the sixth-class near-completion, and the seventh-class Dacheng.

Each class is subdivided into nine ranks, and after the nine ranks, it is promoted to the first class.

It can greatly delay aging and greatly prolong life when it comes to the day.

And the Bone Country, it's actually the same, except for the spiritual power changed to Xuan power, the rest are exactly the same.

This discovery made Zhanyun creepy.

But he didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it.

Zhanyun, you have to understand why you're here for. Don't think too much about what you shouldn't think, don't do more than what you shouldn't do. He said this to himself every day.

Thinking to himself, Zhan Yun closed the scroll and took a sip of the tea made by Heng Ji.

The cold tea calmed his heart.

"Childe, don't you want to see it?"

Heng Ji saw that he had only flipped through a few pages, so he closed the scroll, and was not annoyed, but carefully pinned the heavy scroll to the bookmark, and laboriously stuffed it into the bookshelf.

He watched as the woman's slender arms were raised and lowered, the snow white that loomed between the tulle cloak.

Zhan Yun turned his head away and said, "I want to go to the White Vulture God Capital to go around. ”

Hearing Zhan Yun's words, Heng Ji turned her head, and her movements were slightly faster than usual by half a minute.

This was the reaction when she heard the embarrassment, because it was sudden, so she didn't hide it very well.

Zhan Yun immediately understood in his heart that he was still being watched. But after thinking about this, the feeling of depression in his heart dissipated.

He was much more relaxed in an instant, since this woman was just a tool to spy on him, then he didn't need to feel guilty about her.

Thinking about it, Zhan Yun smiled at the woman: "Come with me?"

"Okay!" Heng Ji smiled, looking at her gaze, and the bottom of those gray bewitching eyes seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

There is only a trace, but it can't escape the eyes of Zhanyun.

Heng Ji said as she turned to pick out a pocket, grabbed a few handfuls and threw them into her small purse.

Zhan Yun found that whether it was the Apocalypse or the Bone Country, women loved to carry bags and purses pinned to their waists.

Even the slave who has no tomorrow has such a delicate purse embroidered with white flowers. Zhanyun felt novel.

But what makes him even more strange is not this, he has never been able to understand, why women like to carry a handbag in their hands, and when they go out, they are not tired?

He thought to himself, if he had the chance, he needed to ask Heng Ji about this issue.

As if sensing Zhan Yun's gaze, Heng Ji said to him, "This is my mother's embroidered purse." ”

Then, she immediately changed the subject, "I'll bring some mica with me, in case Childe has something to buy." ”

Crushed mica is one of the currencies of the Bone Country.

The currency of the Bone Country is different from the common currency of the Apocalypse, ten coins for one copper branch, and ten copper branches for one Jinjia.

Mica is a more advanced currency, and a whole piece of mica can be used as 10 to 30 gold jia depending on its weight, and can also be broken up.

Because it is light and easy to carry, it has become a common currency used by nobles with the status of a bone country.

With that, the two of them walked out the door, sat on the bone bird, and flew down to the top of the skeleton.

In the past few days in the Bone Country, Zhan Yun has figured out that these things that only the bones are still moving, not other living creatures, but puppets made by the bone master of the Bone Country.

"How many bone masters do you need here?" Although Zhan Yun is a man from the Western Regions, he has also heard of puppet spirituality, how difficult it is to create a puppet with a human nature that can be used by people at any time, and he still has a bottom in his heart.

"There was only one bone master, and he was covered with bones. Hehe, don't say it, Childe, Heng Ji thinks he's a little ...... Like a woman. Because of Zhan Yun's good temper and easy-going, Heng Ji's words and deeds have relaxed a lot.

"There is only one ......" Zhan Yun was sincerely impressed, how proficient he must be in puppeteing to give the puppet the will to act in his lifetime, and he is still a puppet with a skeleton.

Regardless of the position, it is common for the opponent to respect the opponent and cherish the hero.

As soon as Heng Ji said this, Zhan Yundao also understood who the bone master was, and he had also seen the feminine man dressed in bone ornaments. The man had appeared next to Prince Xuan.

At that time, he seemed to be discussing something with Prince Xuan in a low voice. he

Seeing Zhan Yun walking by, he stopped whispering, and showed a smile to Zhan Yun that was more charming than a woman, which caused a chill in Zhan Yun's heart.

However, even if the bone master saw Zhan Yun from a distance and stopped his voice, Zhan Yun at the tip of his ear still heard a sentence: "Nan Ze, that woman, is the most successful one your subordinates have ever seen." ”

Nanzawa that woman.
