The stars rise and the night is dark.

In the dense forest, the fog was thick, and the sound of hurried footsteps came.

Bing Ze followed Yun Ao over the dead wood lying on the ground. The two of them ran fast through the dense woods. Under the darkness of the night, the lonely smoke that rose was hidden.

"The right direction, right?" Yun Ao asked hurriedly.

"Can't be wrong!" replied Bingzawa. At the same time, the pace accelerated, and the cloud is proud.

"Bingzawa. Yun Ao tilted his head slightly.

"I have the same question. Bingzawa looked at him. Laughing: "As long as it's not far away, I can sense it." ”

Yun Ao nodded. He didn't doubt this, Bingze's Ice Technique was very sensitive to flames. He was just wondering if it was the right thing to do to enter that forest. The Konghao Empire has also been blocking the border for a hundred years, and there is not a single ship on that connected river. It is rumored that few people who enter the forest make it back alive. But this, of course, cannot be the whole reason for a great empire to seal its borders.

"Yun Ao, have you heard a story?" Bing Ze spat out. The speed of the feet has not decreased in the slightest.

"The conquest of the ancient empire" Yun Ao looked ahead, his clothes trembling. "In an even more ancient era, the conquest of human beings at the beginning of their footing on the maple land. Yun Ao's breathing became heavy.

"Yes, the whole army is annihilated. Bingzawa frowned. The sound of running water can be heard not far away.

"This is an important reason for sealing the border," the eyes of the two gradually widened, and the heavy smell of river water came to their noses.

"It's a dangerous place. ”

The two stopped.

In front of me, a wide river meanders from afar, and the river is turbulent and rushing.

"The river that has buried the vast fleets of how many skilled craftsmen have worked together. Yun Ao exclaimed, "Xunhe!"

"Yun Ao, look over there!" Bing Ze pointed with his hand.

On the other side of the river, smoke rose from the light of a bright fire.

"Are you sure you want to go over?" asked Bingzawa.

The two looked at each other.

"Then you'll have to get ready to skate, Yunao. Bing Ze cleared the corners of his mouth, approached the river, took a deep breath, and gently poked his finger into the river.

Icy cold, with an eerie river.

Bingze's eyes were intent, and a white light appeared in his eyes.

A huge chill poured out of his fingertips.

An ice trail is formed from the fingertips of the ice and extends to the other side of the river, across the river.

"Yours!" Yun Ao praised.

"Let's go. The ice track doesn't last long in such a fast-flowing river. Bingze had already stepped onto the ice path as he spoke. After trying a few steps and making sure that it was stable, Bing Ze turned around and nodded to Yun Ao. The two walked briskly through the ice track, one after the other.

Stepping on the land on the other side, a huge cold feeling came over me. The two of them suddenly became excited.

Suddenly, there was the sound of the ice tunnel shattering behind him. The two looked back, and the ice road was full of cracks, and the river overflowed the ice road. In the next moment, the entire ice road fell apart and completely collapsed, and the river was still rushing.

"Yun Ao, don't let me die. Bingzawa swallowed. "Otherwise, you won't be able to go back. ”

Yun Ao rolled his eyes, "Let's go." ”

Bingzawa looked up at the sky.

The light of the stars was much fainter, and three-quarters of the night had passed.

The two burrowed into the woods, weaving back and forth among the dwarf bushes. The ground was full of weeds and no trace of the road could be found. The trees above their heads were so leafy that they shaded almost the entire sky, and only a tiny light came through, and the two of them couldn't even find the place of the star.

"Can you find your way back?" asked Yun Ao in a low voice.

"I thought you could find it!" Bing Ze stared at him with wide eyes.

Yun Ao turned his head, and there was a miscellaneous tree behind him, and he couldn't find any direction.

Bing Ze looked at his stunned expression and raised his eyebrows. "Tease you!"

"Really? I don't feel like laughing at all. Yun Ao glanced at him, then turned his head to find the direction he had come. "How did you find your way back?"

Bing Ze stretched out his hand and held his four fingers in the palm of his hand. "The water temperature of the Xun River is very low, below freezing. ”

Yun Ao looked at him blankly.

"But it didn't freeze, maybe it's because of the strong current, I don't know. Bing Ze looked into Yun Ao's eyes. "Yun Ao, I can feel it, it's like a big ice cube, it's attracting me. ”

Yun Ao paused, and suddenly patted Bingze. "Don't think so much. This river, this forest, is a forbidden place for humans, what can it have to do with you? After saying that, he turned his gaze to the front, and said as he walked, "Just find the direction to go back." ”

"Hey, I'm finally getting a feeling. Bing Ze looked at his back.

"It feels better not to. Yun Ao didn't look back.

Bingzawa hurried up. "You're jealous, aren't you? Bingzawa asked.

"Shhhhhh Bing Ze looked ahead of Yun Ao.

Not far away, there was a fire.

"Up the tree!" the two exchanged glances and nodded. Then the two jumped into the treetops. Under the cover of dense foliage, quietly observe the situation around the firelight.

Seven or eight men gathered around the campfire, dressed in strange clothes, sackcloth draped over their shoulders, and heavy rusty machetes by their sides, talking to each other in a language they had never heard before. One of them glanced in the direction where Bing Ze and Yun Ao were hiding. That face was covered with pitch-black visor.

The two people who saw that face were shocked at the same time. They looked at each other, and both saw the shock in each other's eyes.
