29. The origin of the iceberg
Haoxi came to the place that Gu Mu Chenfeng said, this place does seem to be a good place, giving people a sense of calm and serenity, he asked around about the specific location of the iceberg, but unexpectedly, everyone knew that there was such a place, but they couldn't point out a specific location.
Strange, didn't Brother Chenfeng say that as long as you inquire here, everyone will know the specific location?
Haoxi didn't give up and continued to ask, this is about Fan Ling's life, no matter what, he has to find this iceberg, at this time a kind person reminded him that there is an old man living on the top of this mountain, maybe he knows the specific location of the iceberg. Hao Xie's then hurried to the top of the mountain, and when he reached the top of the mountain, it was already dusk, and there was a thatched house not far away, and an old man seemed to be sitting at the door.
Damn, it's been a day, I don't know if Fan Ling can still hold on? No, Fan Ling, you must hold on.
"Old man, may I ask, do you know where the iceberg is?" Haoxi stepped forward to ask, and the old man raised his head and looked at him lightly.
"There are too many people who want to go to the iceberg these days, and they all have gone and never returned, so I advise you not to go. β
"Old man, do you know where the iceberg is? I must go today, and there are still people waiting for me to save them. Haoxi said with a firm face.
The old man looked at Haoxi's expression and sighed, looking at the man in front of him, he was dressed extraordinarily, especially the peach blossom eyes, which were exceptionally beautiful, presumably this son would not treat any girl sincerely.
"Save people, save whom?"
Haoxi looked at the old man with a kind face, and sighed softly, of course he couldn't say that the person he wanted to save was the princess of the demon world, so he had to say: "Save my friend's wife, she is sick and must use ice and snow lotus." β
"Everyone wants to get the Ice and Snow Lotus, the Ice and Snow Lotus can not only cure all kinds of diseases, but also enhance mana, what are you doing for your friend's wife? Don't you want to use the Ice and Snow Lotus on yourself?"
"Old man" Haoxi was a little annoyed, didn't this clearly insult him?
"What's wrong with your friend's wife?" the old man asked, interrupting Haoxi.
"I don't know why Fan Ling suddenly got sick, but"
"What did you just say her name?" the old man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Haoxi with bright eyes, interrupting him and asking.
"Fan, Fanling. "No, could it be that this old man knows Fan Ling? Or is Fan Ling really from the Demon Realm?
"Fan Ling?" the old man's eyes dimmed, and a wry smile crossed the corner of his mouth.
"Old man, do you know Fan Ling?" Haoxi kept staring at the old man's face, and he couldn't let go of any trace.
The old man just shook his head, then opened the door and walked in, talking as he went.
"Our ancestors would keep this secret, but they had to spread this legend just to wait for the arrival of someone destined. β
"Is Fan Ling destined?" Haoxi was even more puzzled, Fan Ling's identity had not yet been found out, and this old man seemed to know about Fan Ling's existence, what was going on?
"A long, long time ago, there was a very beautiful woman who came here, she was very gentle and helpful, my ancestors were rescued by her, no one knew where she came from and where she was going, asked her, she just smiled and didn't answer, because she was the life-saving benefactor of my ancestors, so my ancestors temporarily took her in, but the ancestors said that the woman was always alone and quietly looking into the distance, as if waiting for someone, until one day, the woman suddenly ran out with tears on her face, and then begged my ancestors to spread a message for her, and at the same time to protect the secretγ The old man sighed softly and continued.
The woman said, "There is an iceberg on the opposite side, and there is an ice and snow lotus on the iceberg, and she asked my ancestors to spread this sentence." My ancestors were surprised because there was nothing on the other side. After the woman left, my ancestors did not take this as a thing, until three days later in the early morning, my ancestors felt that day was very cold, obviously it was the hot season in June, but it was as cold as winter, open the door to see, there is really an iceberg opposite, at that time my ancestors felt too incredible, because they promised the woman, my ancestors were going to spread this secret when they went down the mountain, and when my ancestors arrived at the bazaar, they found that the bazaar was festive, and listened to it, it turned out that on the day the woman left, it happened to be the couple here to make love, and today is their big day, this coincidence made my ancestors a little suspicious, but there was no way to find out, until a friend inadvertently mentioned that the groom used to seem to have a beautiful wife, and the person they were talking about turned out to be their savior. My ancestors thought that it was probably the woman who saw that her beloved was going to marry someone else, so she left sadly, but he didn't know why the woman asked him to spread the iceberg and ice lotus, my ancestors could only pass it on from generation to generation, so let's spread this legend anyway. We had no choice but to do so, and in my generation, seeing that my body was getting worse day by day, I thought that this secret was probably going to be brought into the dirt by me, and I didn't want to see so many people die for the Ice Lotus, so I had to seal it here. β
Haoxi now finally understands why everyone suddenly doesn't know the specific location of the iceberg, but he always feels that the old man still has something to hide.
"Alright, I've said everything I need to say, you go. After saying that, the old man lowered his head, and there was no longer life.
Haoxi suddenly felt a cold, looked out of the door, and an iceberg appeared in front of him, it turned out that the iceberg was on the opposite side, Haoxi was amazed, now it is important to save Fan Ling, he glanced at the old man, sighed lightly and walked towards the iceberg, maybe this secret is the old man's life until now, when he saw the old man for the first time, he knew that the old man was seriously ill, for a promise, it was really not easy. However, what did this old man hide? He was obviously so surprised when he heard the name Fan Ling, but he denied knowing Fan Ling, if Fan Ling really lived here, then, when Fan Ling was rescued, it must be necessary for him to come here again.
Doctor Sun took Fan Ling's pulse from time to time, shook his head again and again, sighed, Gu Muyi couldn't wait to kill him, a day has passed, why hasn't Haoxi come back yet? Did you get the ice and snow lotus? Fan Ling, you must hold on, you can't die, you must not die, as long as you wake up, this king will promise to take you out to see the outside world.
Gu Mu Chenfeng looked at Fan Ling on the bed, and then at Gu Mu Yi, he was angry and annoyed in his heart, he knew that Fan Ling would become like this, he should have taken Fan Ling out of here at that time, damn it, what happened? Gu Mu Yi refused to reveal half a word from beginning to end, and he could only hope that Hao Xi could come back with the Ice Snow Lotus soon.
