Chapter 172: Encountering a Snow Wolf on the Way
"Ahh
Yuxi let out an exclamation and woke up from her dream with a flick of her hands and feet.
"It's a dream, it's a dream, it's terrible, I've had an avalanche!"
Yuxi stretched out her hand and wiped her cheeks, she was already sweating profusely at this time, and her clothes were almost soaked.
She lifted the quilt and sat up, looking out the window, it was dark outside, only sporadic lights.
"Where is this?"
Yuxi looked at the furnishings in the room in surprise, the light was very dim, and the vision was very blurry.
By the dim light, she stood up and walked to the window, where there was a table with an oil lamp on it, and Yuxi picked up the fire sickle on the table and lit the oil lamp.
Suddenly, the situation in the house became clear.
"It turns out that this is an inn, by the way, didn't I leave the main city last night on a black lightning ride? ”
Yuxi's mind gradually became clearer, the dream just now almost scared her stupid, she didn't expect to encounter such a terrible scene in her dream, she actually encountered an avalanche, and even when she was about to pick a snow lotus, she didn't know what to do.
Yuxi wiped her sweat and took a sip: "It's really unlucky, I actually encountered this kind of thing in my dream!"
But she thought about it: "Didn't I see the snow lotus, it was close in front of me, but I almost picked it." ”
"Well, maybe it's a good sign, anyway, the master said that sometimes dreams tell everything, but generally speaking, dreams have both positive and negative sides, both good and bad. The good side means that your wish is about to come true and may be close at hand, and the bad side means that you will encounter risks, and if you are not careful, your hopes may be dashed. ”
Yuxi pondered for a moment, repeatedly analyzing the dream, in which, she seemed to see hope, because in the dream, she found a rare thousand-year-old snow lotus, indicating that she would not come in vain this time, and she might be lucky to pick this kind of treasure.
But what does an avalanche mean? Needless to say, it represents danger, that is, the danger that you will encounter in the Tianshan Mountains, and you may even lose your life.
Yuxi has been brewing for a long time, and it is estimated that this time I will not go to Tianshan Mountain empty-handed, but there is also an extreme danger hidden in it.
She was mentally prepared that she must be careful when going to the Tianshan Mountains, especially when climbing the snow-capped mountains, and she must be cautious of those unexpected dangers.
At least when she picks the snow lotus, she has to save her life and return to Ruiqi, so that she will not be in vain to come here at great risk, and only if she returns alive will this trip be in vain.
Yuxi washed her face, tidied up her clothes, and then opened the door and asked the shopkeeper for some food.
It turned out that Yuxi had slept all day, and she was so tired that she almost forgot about her hunger.
It was getting late, the night sky was dark outside, and there were only a few lights on the streets.
Yuxi pondered, I spent a day like this, but I wasted a lot of time, and when I had a full stomach, I would have to travel overnight, and I couldn't take care of anything else.
When she and Brother Frog had eaten and drunk enough, they went to the counter to settle the accounts.
By the way, Yuxi asked the enthusiastic shopkeeper about the distance to the Tianshan Mountain, which is closer to the destination than before, the Tianshan Mountain is not far ahead, as long as you continue to move forward in the direction pointed by the shopkeeper, you may be able to approach the boundary of the Tianshan Mountain in one night.
Yuxi knew the destination in her heart, and went out with her luggage and black lightning.
The shopkeeper was very surprised, what is such a beautiful girl doing in Tianshan? He has been running an inn here for many years, and perhaps there are countless tourists who have crossed the river, but a single girl like Yuxi, who is as delicate as a flower, goes to Tianshan alone, but I am afraid that I have not seen it yet.
The shopkeeper sighed, there is no one in the world, but what this girl has to do just now is only relatively rare.
The shopkeeper wanted to persuade Yuxi, telling her that it was too dangerous to go to Tianshan and that she was alone, but Yuxi smiled indifferently and did not respond to the shopkeeper's advice, because at this time Yuxi had already made up her mind that she must climb Tianshan and pick snow lotus. For anything else, Yuxi doesn't care so much.
Out of the inn, Yuxi rode on the black lightning and went straight to the city gate.
Because it was not too late, and the city gate had not yet been closed, Yuxi rode out of the gate on horseback and went straight to the road to the Tianshan Mountains.
The soldiers guarding the gate were very surprised, who was this beautiful girl just now, they had never seen it before, and it was a person riding a horse on the night road.
But the experienced veteran could see that the horse that Yuxi was riding was not an ordinary thing, it might be a rare sweat and blood horse.
Then its owner may not be an ordinary person, and it is not clear which eldest lady of the emperor's relatives is.
But since she is a rich and noble person, why did she appear in this wild place so late, and what was she going to do when she went out of the city at this time?
The soldiers defending the city were puzzled, they had never seen anything like this before, and this was a rare place in the wilderness.
Yuxi rode black lightning across the wilderness, heading straight for the Tianshan Mountains at a great speed.
Just as dawn was approaching, Yuxi looked around, and through the misty morning light, she saw a snow-capped mountain standing in the distance.
"It's Tianshan! That must be Tianshan, I've finally arrived!"
Yuxi exclaimed loudly, the Tianshan Mountains were close in front of her, and her soft voice echoed in the wilderness, stirring up echoes.
Yuxi clamped her legs, and black lightning accelerated and rushed forward.
When the sun jumped overhead, Yuxi came to the foot of the mountain, and there was a small mountain dwelling at the bottom of the high slope, and an old woman stood outside the door.
Yuxi led the horse to the side of the house and asked the old woman about the situation in the Tianshan Mountains.
It turns out that this is the Tianshan Mountain, as for the highest peak of the Tianshan Mountain, it is the Tomur Peak, if you want to find the thousand-year-old snow lotus, then you have to go to the mountain near the Tomur Peak to find.
Above those peaks, there are few human tracks, especially some natural snow lotus flowers growing among the leeward mountain rocks.
In this place, few people will go to the difficult peaks to look for snow lotus, so the snow lotus growing on the rarely visited mountain peak is the most amazing thousand-year-old snow lotus.
However, it is very dangerous to go there, and you may encounter snow wolves or fierce golden eagles wandering in the mountains.
These things are eaten almost immediately upon sight of a living thing, and if Yuxi is not careful, he may encounter danger.
The old woman's advice, Yuxi felt grateful, but she was determined and would not look back.
The old woman told Yuxi the nearest route to pick snow lotus, and she memorized it.
Yuxi entrusted the black lightning to the old woman to take care of, and told her to come back to find the horse, and asked the old woman to watch carefully.
Then Yuxi packed her bags and set out on the road up the mountain.
When Yuxi travels to the mountains, you can see that those peaks are what the old woman called Tomur Peak, and you may be able to find a thousand-year-old snow lotus on the peaks near it.
Yuxi calmed down, if she looked for it step by step, it would waste a lot of her time, so Yuxi decided that as long as the mountain was not steep, she would use light skills to climb the mountain.
However, it is dangerous to go up the mountain with light skills, and if you are not careful, you will accidentally fall down as soon as you do not grasp it firmly or stand firmly.
Therefore, Yuxi decided to use light skills to go to a high place, and if it was too high, she simply climbed it with her hands and feet.
So she fastened her suit, went to a place where no one was, took a breath of true air, and flew into the air with all her feet.
Yuxi used his light skills and quickly crossed the rocks, approaching the mountains near Tomur Peak almost as fast as he could.
As the hillsides crossed under her feet, Yuxi was very surprised that almost none of the exercises she had learned before had been wasted.
Of course, the hard work she had done also brought her the greatest advantage, and she easily crossed the distance that others had to climb for a long time.
When she stood at the foot of a peak, she looked up at the almost unattainable peak, the snow-capped tip looming between the clouds.
How can you climb such a high mountain? Yuxi hesitated, but the snowy peak was right in front of her, and if she didn't climb it, wouldn't she have to retreat?
Yuxi sighed, felt a cold wind, it was too cold, although she had just walked a very long distance, and she was tired and sweating violently, but at the foot of this snow peak, it was still very cold, and the sweat on her body was almost about to condense into frost.
Yuxi untied her lower bag, took out the fire fox fur wrapped in it and put it on, and immediately felt a lot warmer on her body.
Suddenly, she found that Pang Hu had sent such a fire fox fur in order to marry her, and she thought it was a little cute.
If she didn't have this fur now, how would she have coped with the cold in the mountains that day? With this big gun, she can resist it for a while.
Yuxi climbed to the top of the mountain step by step, almost using her hands and feet, and approached the high place of the mountain step by step.
An hour passed, and Yuxi came to a gentle mountainous area, and she gasped for breath and sat down to rest for a while.
Suddenly, there was a wolf howling sound in the distance, which alarmed Yuxi, who was closing his eyes and recuperating.
"It's a snow wolf!
She quickly stood up and looked in the direction of the wolf howl, oh my God! a pack of snow wolves was running towards where she stood!
"Run!"
Yuxi grabbed her bags and hurriedly ran into the distance.
Just when she was out of breath, the group of snow wolves chased after her and surrounded her.
Yuxi is in a hurry, what can I do? These wolves are going to eat people!
She hurried around looking for a place to hide, and suddenly she saw a huge rock standing not far in front of her.
So Yuxi had a plan, lifted her true qi, jumped up lightly on her tiptoes, jumped on the top of the boulder three times and twice, and then looked at the wolves that were quickly surrounding her.
Yuxi hurriedly recited the mantra, used the stealth technique, and quietly leaned down on the top of the rock, observing the wolves' every move.
I saw that the group of snow wolves surrounded the boulder, searching around for Yuxi's whereabouts at the foot of the boulder, sniffing the breath she left from time to time, and looking around with fierce eyes.
However, after half an hour, the group of snow wolves seemed to be disappointed, and saw the huge head wolf barking wildly with its head raised, as if to express its dissatisfaction, why did the prey in front of it disappear into thin air and disappear without a trace?
Yuxi held her breath and snickered secretly in her heart, in the end, it was a group of beasts, although they were extremely fierce, but compared to people, they were still a little worse.
After a while, the snow wolves dispersed in disappointment and ran in another direction in search of their prey, which they probably could not have imagined that the prey that was almost to their mouths was silently lying on the rocks overhead, but they could not reach or see.
