Chapter 41: The Frozen Valley
More than a month later, Lu Jianping completely practiced the [Snake Sword Technique], and his cultivation broke through to the seventh layer of the Heaven and Man One Heavy Realm. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After that, Lu Jianping quietly infiltrated Chenxu Town and began to inquire about information about the Frozen Valley.
The Frozen Valley is a forbidden place for the Li family, which is guarded by monks all year round, and outsiders are forbidden to enter.
In order to prevent outsiders from accidentally entering the Frozen Valley, the Li family told everyone in Chenxu Town about the location of the Frozen Valley and the characteristics of the Frozen Valley.
After a little inquiry, Lu Jianping learned the general location of the Frozen Valley.
Now, the monk guarding the Frozen Valley is Li Yanyan, the great elder of the Li family, and his cultivation is the seventh layer of the Heaven and Man One Heavy Realm, which is on par with Lu Jianping.
Lu Jianping felt that he was fully capable of dealing with the Great Elder, so he secretly approached the Frozen Valley.
"Help, help!"
Before Lu Jianping could see the entrance to the Frozen Valley, he heard a weak cry for help.
As a person who grew up on the earth, how could Lu Jianping turn a blind eye to other people's requests for help?
After hearing this cry for help, Lu Jianping didn't think about it, so he rushed in the direction where the sound came from.
A moment later, an astonishing picture appeared in front of Lu Jianping.
It is a steep cliff with a height of more than two hundred meters, and the cliff stretches into the distance with no end in sight.
Obviously, these cliffs are the traces left after Xuyue Mountain was uprooted.
If you stand on the cliff and look down, then the entire Void Moon Valley is a depression left behind after the Void Moon Mountain disappeared.
On the steep cliff, a huge crack that seemed to have been cut by a sharp sword was embedded in it.
Although there was still a distance of more than a hundred meters from the entrance of the crack, the chill in the crack had been clearly perceived by Lu Jianping.
It seems that there is a high-power air conditioner in this crack, so that the air temperature in the crack is significantly lower than that of the outside world.
After feeling this trace of coldness, Lu Jianping immediately understood that this crack was the frozen valley he was looking for.
On the cliff near the crack, there were many wooden sticks nailed, and ropes were tied to the sticks, and under the ropes, dried corpses were tied.
According to a rough estimate, the number of dried corpses hanging on the cliff face is more than a hundred.
Underneath these dried corpses, there are mountains of white bones, the number of which is probably in the thousands.
Lu Jianping deduced that these white bones were originally dried corpses hanging on the cliff, but after too much time, the wooden sticks and ropes were rotten and could not keep them in the air, so they fell to the ground.
At this moment, a little girl about ten years old is constantly asking for help in a hoarse voice.
The little girl was tied to the cliff like the dried corpses.
Seeing this, Lu Jianping jumped on the cliff without hesitation and saved the little girl.
"Who are you and why are you tied to a cliff!"
After Lu Jianping rescued the little girl, he immediately put the sword on the little girl's shoulder and asked in a fierce tone.
If Lu Jianping hadn't appeared, then this little girl would definitely have been dried up by the scorching sun a few days later.
When she died, her body would sit on the cliff face and be exposed to the wind and rain until thousands of years later, when the body was reduced to a white skeleton and the sticks were rotting and the rope was broken, before they could fall to the ground.
When she hits the ground, her bones shatter into pieces.
The customs of the Tianxuan Continent are very similar to those of ancient China, and the concept of entering the earth for peace is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Violent corpse wilderness, broken bones, dead corpses, desecration of corpses, etc., are definitely the most terrible curses on the dead.
Lu Jianping felt that there must be a reason why this little girl was treated like this by the Li family.
In order to prevent the little girl from lying, Lu Jianping threatened with a sword.
"My name is Xiaohua, I'm just a sheep herding baby, please don't kill me!"
When the little girl saw Lu Jianping, she put the sword around her neck, which might take her life at any time, so frightened that her legs and feet weakened, and she sat on the ground.
The little girl cried and begged for mercy.
The hazy appearance of the teary eyes, the hoarse and choked voice, it was really sad for those who saw it, and the tears of the hearers, Lu Jianping couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt.
Scaring the little girl, this is definitely not something to boast about.
Lu Jianping hurriedly put the sword back in its scabbard, then squatted down and handed the water bag to the little girl.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. I just want to know why you're hanging from a cliff, and you don't mean it. ā
Lu Jianping's face had a warm smile, his voice was very gentle, and his kindness was already overflowing.
When the little girl saw Lu Jianping's performance, she was immediately relieved.
The little girl stared at the water bag, hesitated for a moment, quickly snatched the water bag, and then drank more than a dozen sips in a row.
The little girl was hung from a cliff face, exposed to the sun, and severely dehydrated.
After getting the water bag, the little girl wanted to drink all the water in the water bag into her stomach immediately.
Lu Jianping was worried that she drank too quickly and broke her stomach, so he hurriedly snatched the water bag over.
After the hydration bag was snatched away, the little girl couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.
Then the little girl woke up, and then stepped back some distance with full warning.
The little girl looked at Lu Jianping and carefully explained:
"The Frozen Valley is the forbidden place of the Li family, and those who trespass on the Frozen Valley will be hung on the cliff to death. I was found in the Frozen Valley, so I was punished, and if you hadn't saved me, I would have died!"
The little girl looked at the dried corpses on the cliff face, and a deep fear appeared on her face.
Such a punishment will not only make the intruder suffer while he is alive, but also make the intruder's body suffer after death.
In the eyes of the people of the Tianxuan Continent, such a punishment was even more terrible than a thousand cuts.
Listening to the little girl's words, Lu Jianping's brows furrowed tightly.
The punishment of the intruders in the Frozen Valley is a bit too vicious, even the corpses are trampled, which is really too much.
"Since you know that the Frozen Valley is the forbidden land of the Li family, and you will be punished extremely severely if you enter the Frozen Valley, why do you want to enter the Frozen Valley?"
This little girl was just a mortal who was powerless, and Lu Jianping didn't find any traces of cultivation on her.
It stands to reason that such a little girl has no reason to enter the Frozen Valley at all.
The Frozen Valley has a thousand-year-old cold marrow, and the thousand-year-old cold marrow is extremely useful for monks, but useless for mortals.
In the thousand-year-old cold marrow, there is a fierce water aura, and mortals who come into contact with the thousand-year-old cold marrow will be seriously injured at least and die at worst.
Lu Jianping was very curious about the reason why the little girl entered the Frozen Valley.
After listening to Lu Jianping's words, the little girl's face showed a depressed expression.
