Chapter 196: Ice Bee Hive
"I can't hold it off. Xue Zhiyu paused, looked into Wang Feng's eyes and said slowly, "I want to leave here." ”
Somewhat surprised, Xue Zhiyu didn't see surprise in Wang Feng's eyes, and the guy laughed: "I guessed that you were planning to do this early in the morning!
Xue Zhiyu laughed, before she was struggling with whether Wang Feng was trustworthy or not, and whether she could tell such important information, but it turned out that there was really no need to hide it in front of smart people.
"During this time, my father will definitely take strict care of me, and the only chance is on the day of the engagement," Xue Zhiyu actually felt relaxed after picking out the matter, and said with a smile: "I plan to leave at that time, Tatasi, Tasya brothers and sisters, and Gina will all be with me, I have been planning this for a long time, and now I can only advance it." ”
"The Ice and Snow Festival has only been more than half a month, and there is not much time, so it should be no problem for me to delay it with you until then. Lao Wang smiled and said, "When the time comes, I will also leave." ”
Xue Zhiyu said with a smile: "Leaving at the same time as me, aren't you afraid of being charged with abducting the princess and running away? ”
"Your Highness, be kind...... old Wang really didn't expect this, and suddenly looked innocent: "Before you leave, why do you have to leave a letter to your father to explain the situation, otherwise this kind of big hat will be deducted from me, and I won't be able to live?" Help you and help cause trouble in the end, no one like you!"
Xue Zhiyu chuckled, and stopped for a long time: "Don't worry, I will leave a letter to my father to explain the situation." ”
"There are good and bad things about Grandpa's appointment that we get engaged, the good thing is that there will definitely be a chance to leave on the day of the engagement, but the bad thing is how to delay it until that day. She paused, and said: "It won't be so easy, my father will definitely not approve of this family business, I'm afraid that this time will test you in every possible way, once what you do can't satisfy everyone, the engagement will be canceled, and then I will be more strictly guarded, and then I want to leave, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult than now." ”
"Don't worry," Lao Wang smiled haha: "I'm the real Oscar when acting, oh, it's just that I'm very good at acting." ”
"I hope so. Xue Zhiyu smiled slightly: "Then the cooperation is happy." ”
"These are all trivial matters," Lao Wang rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Did the clan elder give you anything?"
"Something, what?"
"Like a token, an oil lamp, or something like that......"
"Oil lamp?" Xue Zhiyu looked dazed.
Lao Wang knew the result as soon as he saw this expression, and he was a little hopeful, but it was also expected, Oscar was absolutely cunning and cunning, how could he scatter an eagle if he didn't see a rabbit......?
Unexpectedly, Xue Zhiyu said again: "When you talk about the oil lamp, I think of it, it seems that there is such a thing." ”
She smiled and said, "There is an old oil lamp in my grandfather's ice cave, and my old love used to joke with me that he didn't have any possessions, so he always followed that oil lamp, and when I got engaged, he gave me the oil lamp as a gift." ”
"That thing is old, but it's an antique!" Lao Wang patted his thigh: "It's not a secret, I don't usually have any other hobbies, I like to collect a little old things, feel the years precipitated on it! I went to the old man's cave before and saw the oil lamp, and I fell in love with it at a glance!"
Xue Zhiyu smiled and said, "You want it?"
"Ahem, I can't help it, I can't help it...... Lao Wang said with a smile: "Your Highness, you see that I have helped you so much this time, there is no merit and hard work, if the clan elder really gives you the oil lamp when you are engaged, can you lend it to me? No other meaning, it is purely a personal hobby! You see, you are going to run away anyway, and it is inconvenient to carry an oil lamp on your body, this is the thought that the clan elder gave you, wouldn't it be sad if you get rid of it?" Anyway, I'm in Aurora City, you borrow me to play for a while, relieve the pain of this antique lovesickness, and when you don't run away in the future, send someone to Aurora City to pick it up, or send a letter, I'll return to Zhao immediately!"
"Returning to Zhao?" Xue Zhiyu was stunned.
"Ahem, that is, it means to return it to you in good condition. ”
"You always have some words that people don't understand, in fact, it's nothing to give to you, you have helped me so much, am I a stingy person with Princess Ice Spirit?" Xue Zhiyu wrinkled his nose and glanced at Wang Feng a little angrily.
"Princess, atmosphere!" Lao Wang gave a thumbs up, and it was pleasant to talk about things with rich people.
.........
Between the snow-capped sky and the earth, the surrounding mountains are steep.
This is the side peak of the Ice Spirit City, and it is also the forbidden place of winter, which is far away from the cliff of the Cloud Tower, but through the thick cloud layer of this mountain stream, only the outline of the opposite mountain wall can be faintly seen.
There was no snow in the air, and on a rare sunny day, a few Winter Clansmen rode snow wolves, talking and laughing, and were patrolling around.
Call~~
There seemed to be a gust of snow and wind blowing, and one of them widened his eyes: "It seems that something came up from the edge of the cliff just now......"
". Someone looked up and down the cliff next to him, and saw that as far as his eye could see, the snow wall was white and smooth, empty, and scolded with a smile: "Dazzled? This ice wall is hundreds of meters high, and if you don't leave your hand, who can come up from here?"
"Maybe it's a small animal like a snow cat. The other person smiled and said: "Don't make a fuss, speaking of which, our work of guarding the forbidden area is probably the easiest in the clan, not to mention our generation, I heard the captain say that even if no patrol team has encountered trouble here in the past hundred years, such an errand is directly equivalent to pension in advance." ”
"Are you still happy? It's because it's too easy, I heard that the clan seems to be preparing to reduce the number of patrols in our forbidden areas, saying that someone in the clan said that our patrol team only eats and doesn't do anything, and it's a pure waste of food. ”
"Let's see how the above decides in the end, if it is really cut, it will be a helpless thing, speaking of which, we have been patrolling here for several years, what is there in this forbidden place? The captain never allows us to come close to half a step......"
"Don't be curious, I heard the old man in the clan say that there are devils locked up in the forbidden land, and whoever goes in can't get out!"
"Scare, real and fake......"
The voices of several team members gradually faded away, and on the white snow wall like a mirror, two white 'snow shadows' shook slightly, revealing two backs, a man and a woman, whose hands and feet were firmly attached to the smooth ice, only slightly upward.
Scold......
Both of them climbed seven or eight meters on the ice wall at the same time, and in only a dozen ups and downs, they had already crossed the mountain wall, jumped up from the top of the cliff, and floated to the ground.
Red lotus, Fourier.
Honghe's chest rose and fell slightly, the forbidden place in winter is not so easy to break into, and the front will definitely not be able to enter, and climbing this cliff and ice wall thousands of meters high, even for a ghost-level master like her, it is definitely not an easy task.
Fourier's expression next to him was obviously much more relaxed, and he didn't even take a deep breath, as if he had just climbed this cliff for thousands of meters, and to him it was just a few ordinary steps.
He looked around, and soon locked on a position, only to see that it was a strange deep cave on the top of the mountain, three or four meters square, the entrance of the cave was facing down, there were a lot of black debris along the wall, and a trace of cold air came out of the mouth of the cave, like a small 'crater',
"Those debris should be the slag of the cold iron ore," Fourier smiled slightly: "Hehe, the cold iron cave, the ice beehive, this is it." ”
"The Ice Bee Hive, which once ravaged the Ice Spirit for a long time, was later sealed by the Holy Ancestor through this place, so many years, you can imagine how many there will be. Red Lotus's eyes showed a little fanaticism.
Ice Bee, a taboo type of existence in "Nine Heavens Demon Beasts", lives by devouring cold iron.
The individual of the ice bee is not very powerful, the general ice bee is only a wolf level, even the queen bee is only a wolf peak, but the terrible thing is its number, often hundreds of millions! These things are usually only entrenched in their own territory, but once any creature dares to invade their territory, or threaten the queen bee, they will attack it in a swarm without fear of death, devouring everything they see, and there is no grass in the place they pass, and the terrible sea of ice bees and insects will drown all enemies, which is not something that humans can resist at all.
"We spent a long time studying their habits, the queen bee will have a fixed ovulation period every year, just before and after the ice and snow festival in the Ice Spirit Country, in order to hatch better, it will lay eggs outside the nest, that is the only time when the ice bee comes out of the hole every year, not only the queen bee, but also countless ice bees come out to worship, will form an aurora-like vision on the top of this mountain, as long as the queen bee can be stolen at that time, all the ice bees can be introduced into the Ice Spirit City. ”
"So, what do you do now, do you have a way to get the seal?" asked Red Lotus with interest.
