Chapter 70: Shocking Changes in the Snow

Huo Cang rode on the white tiger, a little embarrassed - he was a big man sitting, and letting a girl lead the white tiger in front of him was really a little uncomfortable.

"Ahem, that ...... Why don't we change it?" Huo Cang called Yun Xiao embarrassedly, "I see that you seem to be very tired, does it really matter?"

Yun Xiao ignored his proposal, and still walked silently, at this time the sun had completely penetrated the clouds, shining in the pale snow, folding a dazzling light, Yun Xiao closed her eyes slightly, and felt that her eyes were dry and painful.

"Hey!" Huo Cang immediately discovered her abnormality, and hurriedly jumped off the back of the white tiger and directly covered her eyes, and said, "Don't keep staring at the snow, you will get snow blindness." ”

"No...... I need to find him as soon as possible. Yun Xiao didn't give up, and decisively broke his hand, and the vision was clear and blurry for a while, bright white for a while, and dark for a while, and countless broken lights flickering.

"Stupid! Close your eyes! Don't open them!" Huo Cang scolded angrily, regardless of whether she wanted to or not, he covered her eyes with his hands and directly pressed her to the ground and sat down, the white tiger also leaned over, Huo Cang pushed her into the white tiger's long hair, and kindly persuaded, " Girl, I have lived on this snowfield for more than 20 years, the most common thing here is snow blindness, if you are lucky, you may recover for a while and you will be fine, if you don't pay attention to it, you will never be cured of blindness, you are so beautiful, you definitely don't want to become blind at a young age, right?"

"But......" she still wanted to refute, Huo Cang's temper suddenly came up, "Don't be, no one can save you if you're blind, and someone else has to save you! Just rest here for a while, I have a smoke bomb on me, I'll send a message to the young pavilion master, and wait for him to find it himself." ”

"Okay. Yun Xiao rubbed her eyes and could only compromise, at this time there was a sound in her ears, she turned around slightly, and a vague red light flew out in front of her.

I really can't see it clearly...... She didn't make a sound, she quickly closed her eyes and rested, the white tiger's hair was very long, and she could bury half of her body in it next to the white tiger, which was quite warm.

Huo Cang also sat down, took out the kettle in his bag, wiped it and handed it to her: "Come, if you don't mind, drink some water first." ”

"Thank you. Yun Xiao groped to take it, Huo Cang's heart sank, snow blindness was very fast, looking at her now, is she no longer visible?

"You haven't rested for a few days?" Seeing that she was holding the kettle and drinking it for a while, Huo Cang hurriedly took out some dry food and put it in her hand, and said curiously, "You rushed over from the fine snow valley to save me, and you have to ask for an all-night at the earliest, haven't you slept all night?"

"I haven't closed my eyes for three days. Yun Xiao smiled, she couldn't see the disbelief on Huo Cang's face that instantly rose, and continued, "I have been trapped in the fine snow valley for two days, counting today, I have not slept for three whole days, and I haven't entered a drop of water. ”

"Three days ......" Huo Cang is still unbelievable, the military pavilion will conduct special training for soldiers in various departments every year, in order to better adapt to various sudden extreme conditions, the training officer will compress the rest time to the limit, and food will be very scarce, but even if he is a man who has experienced a hundred battles, he can't hold it without rest or food for three days, let alone a girl who looks soft and weak?

"I'm not a pampered lady. Yun Xiao added, you can guess what he is thinking by feeling, Huo Cang hurriedly coughed a few times, and said with a smile, "You are a disciple of Kunlun, your cultivation of the mind is indeed very useful, you see that Jia Luo is so cold, the young pavilion master still wears a thin summer coat every year, but unfortunately those mental methods of yours cannot be passed on, otherwise the soldiers who taught us, everyone will not have to be frozen." ”

Yun Xiao gnawed on the dry food in her hand and ignored his broken thoughts, she was able to go without eating or sleeping for so long, in fact, it was not because of Kunlun Mountain's mental method, but the invisible flame in her body, the breath of the spirit phoenix.

But now, once she relaxed, she still felt a huge exhaustion, making every inch of her body stiff and heavy.

Huo Cang had already keenly felt this kind of exhaustion on her, her face became pale in a moment, and her skin also showed an ugly dead gray, although she was still fighting spirits, her head had involuntarily leaned on the back of the white tiger.

He looked at the sky, it was almost noon, if the young pavilion master was rushing here on the Tianzheng bird, then he should be about to arrive, thinking of this, Huo Cang comforted: "Girl, if the snow blindness is not serious, it will be recovered in about a day, you can sleep first by relying on the white tiger, I will call you when the young pavilion master comes." ”

"Can't sleep, sleep...... I don't know when I'll wake up. Yun Xiao shook her head and refused, the Frost Sky Phoenix still needs to constantly feed on bones and blood, her body is no longer under her control at this moment, and only her spirit can barely stay awake.

She secretly thought about it, if the people who ambushed Huo Cang and the An Yu Palace Lord continued to press for a while, they should be at the limit, why did they suddenly choose to retreat? Are they really worried that Qianye will come over? No...... After walking for so long and a thousand nights, how can it be so easy to support such a large snowfield, they must have other plans!

"Huo Jiang...... You ......" she wanted to say something, her brain was dizzy, and her body seemed to sink into the water, and she kept falling.

"Girl?" Huo Cang shouted nervously, finding that she had fallen asleep quietly with her head tilted.

"Did you fall asleep?" he carefully examined, and even sniffed, but fortunately, he was still alive, and he really fell asleep.

"Hey. Huo Cang breathed a sigh of relief, went to the other side of the white tiger, took out the only remaining dry food and nibbled it, and said to himself, "You said before that you didn't rest for three days, and I didn't believe it yet, but seeing that you can fall asleep when you speak, I have to believe it again, it's okay to fall asleep, snow blindness should have a good rest." ”

At this moment, the shadow of a white giant bird appeared in the sky in the west, and the Tianzheng Bird saw the red smoke bomb signal, and finally arrived with the master, Xiao Qianye was so anxious that he jumped before the Tianzheng Bird landed, and strode to the two of them.

"Shhhhh......h ”

"Huo Cang!" Xiao Qianye lowered his voice, and the movements of his hand couldn't help but slow down, waving at his bird, signaling it to be quiet.

He leaned over cautiously, and saw that half of her body was buried in the white tiger's fur, stretched out his hand, and was afraid of waking her, but finally took it back and went around to Huo Cang's side.

"This white tiger isn't ours, right?" Xiao Qianye carefully looked at the lazy white tiger in front of him, Huo Cang nodded and pointed at Yun Xiao, "This is just her riding, haha, so careful, it's not like you." ”

Xiao Qianye checked his injuries and said seriously, "Did someone from the dark department attack you?"

"I don't know, most likely. Huo Cang thought for a moment and frowned, "That old man doesn't know what it is, with a shadow puppet box, he can manipulate the corpse of a dead person like a cloth bag puppet, that girl, he called her the big palace master, it shouldn't be the big palace master of the Star Sacrifice Palace, right?"

"Sure enough, the Star Sacrifice Palace is also here!" Xiao Qianye was not surprised, when he was in the Thousand Machine Palace, Di Ya did say the words "Star Sacrifice Palace" in his mouth, but he didn't expect the palace master to come over in person!

"Why did they arrest you?" Huo Cang's tone sank, and finally asked the most critical question, "They didn't arrest you in a regular way, but they found some strange shadows, and they had to secretly arrest you alive, is there something wrong with the imperial capital?" I heard that His Majesty gave you a three-month suspension, but all the affairs of the military cabinet are still handled by you, why did he come one thing on the surface and one thing behind the scenes, are you causing trouble again?"

Xiao Qianye couldn't explain everything to him, but his face was silent with a heavy face.

"Oh. You don't want to say. Huo Cang sighed and turned his face away, "You still treat us as outsiders." ”

"Brother Huo, it's not what you think. Xiao Qianye suddenly came back to his senses, caught a glimpse of the unhappy gaze in the other party's eyes, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, I wouldn't have caused you to be ambushed here, and the two children in Lalazhai ......"

"Lala Village?" Huo Cang thought for a while and exclaimed, "Is it the Lala Village where the White Tiger Fourth Team is stationed nearby?"

"Hmm. Xiao Qianye nodded, "Originally, Nanjing was going back to Qianji Palace with me, but there was some accident there, I could only leave him behind, and the Qianji Palace where the three teams were stationed was not peaceful, I encountered a sneak attack in the dark last night, and I was poisoned by cartilage and couldn't move all night, so I delayed the time to save you." ”

"You mean there are their people everywhere?" Huo Cang suddenly lowered his voice, his eyes sharpened, "Lala Village is on the north side of Jialuo, Qianji Palace is in the center, and the Fine Snow Valley and the Glacier Forest are all in the east, their people can scatter so far away to attack you, this is prepared!"

"I know, that's why I asked you to suspend your daily patrols, but unfortunately I came late, if it had been earlier, you ...... You won't be hurt like this by them!" Xiao Qianye looked at Huo Cang, who was bruised and bruised, his eyes were on fire, Huo Cang waved his hand indifferently, "The shadows are already lurking everywhere, it's normal for them to move faster than you, and they don't seem to want to kill me at all, if I'm not mistaken, they should be ready to arrest me alive and then force you to compromise yourself, right?"

Xiao Qianye didn't reply, and at this time, the white tiger scratched the itch, making him stand up nervously.

The woman leaning on the white tiger only moved slightly, and her eyelids trembled a little.

"In all these years, I haven't seen you feel so nervous about anyone. Huo Cang looked at him, and couldn't help but think of the military career with him in the past eight years, and sighed, "No wonder you don't even obey Your Majesty's marriage! ”

"Ah Xiao is just an ordinary person. Xiao Qianye looked at the sleeping woman gently, and read a sentence softly in her mouth, Huo Cang laughed out loud, and patted her boss's head, "Ordinary people? Where is she ordinary? Where can I find this kind of ordinary person who doesn't eat, drink, or sleep for three days, and can ride a white tiger alone to save me?"

"Three days?" Xiao Qianye was startled, her expression suddenly tightened, Huo Cang pointed to her eyes, and said worriedly, "It's snow blindness, if she wakes up in a while, most of her eyes will be invisible, you have to take her to the doctor quickly, you can't delay." ”

"Snow blindness......" Xiao Qianye gritted his teeth hard, Ah Xiao was born in Kunlun, and he was used to seeing ice and snow when he was a child, and he would suddenly suffer from snow blindness at this time, which was undoubtedly caused by excessive exhaustion and worry!

"Let's go, we can't delay any longer, you take this girl to ride the heavenly conquest bird, and I will ride the white tiger to follow you below." Huo Cang helped the white tiger to stand up, Xiao Qianye nodded, leaned over and picked up her skirt carefully, her dress had already been torn, and her exposed skin was blown by the wind and snow, and she suddenly let out a breath, coughed a few times, and woke up.

"I woke you up. Xiao Qianye said annoyedly, "I should be lighter." ”

"A Thousand Nights...... Is that you?" Yun Xiao opened her eyes, and there was already darkness in front of her and she couldn't see anything, but she was instantly shocked, and anxiously reached out to touch his cheek, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Afraid that she would be worried, Xiao Qianye replied almost without thinking, Huo Cang looked at them enviously on the side, and deliberately let out a sigh, "It's good to be young, why haven't I met such a girl who was so good to me when I was young?"

"If you drink less and quarrel less, there will be girls who will be good to you. Xiao Qianye clearly knew Huo Cang's temperament, the Huo family was from Yangchuan, and he moved to the imperial capital thirty-six years ago, and several generations of the clan were capable subordinates of the military pavilion.

"That's not good, the girl I'm looking for can't drink worse than me. Huo Cang's head shook like a rattle, and he was bared his teeth in severe pain after taking two steps, as soon as he lowered his head, he found that the wound on his left foot that was bitten by the corpse was bleeding pus and bleeding, and it was frozen like a hard pimple in this ice and snow, he smiled bitterly and scratched his head, "Young Pavilion Master, can you put her down first and come over and help me?"

"You have to find a place to treat this leg quickly, I don't want the white wolf to become a disabled person in the future. Xiao Qianye put down Yun Xiao, walked over to help Huo Cang, put his arm on his shoulder, and supported him to climb the white tiger.

"Oops...... Hurt. Half of Huo Cang's body threw himself on his back, cold sweat broke out, and there was an inexplicable nausea in his chest, as if something was about to tear his chest out.

"Brother Huo?" Xiao Qianye keenly sensed that something was wrong with the other party, and then he bumped into Huo Cang's empty eyes at a glance, like another person's eyes staring at him!

He froze in surprise, and at this moment, a strange smile appeared on Huo Cang's face, one hand wrapped his arms around his waist hard, and the other hand pulled out his saber at lightning speed, and stabbed him in the abdomen!

"Brother Huo!" Xiao Qianye struggled to break free of Huo Cang, staggered back a few steps, the knife passed through his abdomen impartially, and blood gushed like a spring in an instant.

"Qianye! what's going on?" Yun Xiao screamed nervously, but there was still nothing to see in front of him, Xiao Qianye barely stood firm, and the cold sweat on his forehead was rubbing out, only to see Huo Cang, who couldn't walk just now, holding the knife that was constantly dripping blood, and approaching him with steady steps.

"Who are you......" He also subconsciously clenched his sword spirit, stared at the familiar and strange person in front of him, and asked sharply.

"Who am I? I'm your white wolf general, Huo Cang! hehe!" spoke again, and the forty-year-old man on the opposite side suddenly made a strange childlike voice, Yun Xiao was startled, recognized this familiar voice, and shouted, "It's someone from the Star Sacrifice Palace!"

"Star Sacrifice Palace?" Xiao Qianye looked at Huo Cang in surprise, his vicissitudes of life were showing an innocent smile like a child at this time, and he even stuck out his tongue and grimaced at him, "I just said it, if you want to deal with the military pavilion master, no matter how powerful a person is, it is not as good as your own people! You see, he was stabbed by me so easily." ”

While he spoke, he clapped his hands happily, tiptoe in a circle, and the Tianzheng bird suddenly let out a poignant long cry, attracting the owner to look overhead, only to see a girl floating like a feather in the sky, seeing that he found himself, he pouted angrily, and then fell to the ground lightly.

"Chiya be careful, there should be two of them. Yun Xiao carefully touched it with her senses, touched the warm wound on his abdomen, and exclaimed, "You are injured!"

"I ...... It's okay, a little bit...... Scrape. Xiao Qianye pressed the fatal wound, and her mouth was still lying to her.

The girl tilted her head, pointed at Huo Cang, and said, "If the military pavilion master doesn't want him to look like this in the future, it's best to come with us, otherwise...... He is such a stinky man with five big and three thick, and he will become like a female doll in the future. ”

"What did you do?" Xiao Qianye didn't dare to act rashly, at this time, Huo Cang's strange behavior made him even more worried, An Yu Palace Lord blinked his eyes, and said slyly, "What have you done? Haven't you already seen it all?" The military pavilion is mainly grinding and chirping like this, and the next knife ...... But he cut himself. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Huo Cang raise his right hand in a daze and put the long knife on his neck!

"Stop! Stop!" Xiao Qianye exclaimed, perhaps because of excessive nervousness, blood kept gushing out of the corners of his mouth, his eyes trembled, panicked, "Don't touch him! Don't ...... Don't touch him!"

"Okay, I'll not move him. The palace master of An Yu took his hand with satisfaction, and when he saw that he was relieved, he suddenly turned his head and sneered behind him, "Grandpa, it's not good to watch the show all the time, it's time for you to make a move." ”

Xiao Qianye vigilantly looked at the figure that appeared behind the girl, it was a short and sturdy old man, squinting his eyes and stroking his beard, smiling amiably, holding a shadow puppet box in his hand.

He immediately realized that this person was the old man who could control the dead corpse in Huo Cang's mouth, and the old man paced forward, and there was a newly made cloth bag man in the box of the shadow puppet show, which was a little similar to Huo Cang.

"Your target is me, let him go, and I'll change it with you. Xiao Qianye opened his mouth coldly, Lao Su and An Yu were taken aback at the same time, and exchanged glances incredibly, Yun Xiao grabbed him and shook his head desperately, Xiao Qianye took a deep breath, broke away from her hand and stepped forward, "Governor Gao, Star Sacrifice Palace, Star Saintess, and Your Majesty...... You just want to arrest me secretly, let Huo Cang go, and I'll go with you. ”

"Oh?" An Yu dragged out her voice, she didn't expect things to go so smoothly, she made a look, and Lao Su took out three medicine bottles from his arms and threw them over, saying, "The military pavilion master drank all these three bottles of medicine, and I will release them." ”

"Good. He picked up the bottle on the ground and drank it without hesitation, and then his body began to soften, and he gradually lost his strength.

The sword spirit also threw it away. An Yu added, catching a glimpse of the white long sword still holding in his hand, Xiao Qianye's eyebrows frowned, and this momentary hesitation was seen by Lao Suo, pinching the cloth bag puppet and tearing off a hand!

At the same moment, Huo Cang's left arm also fell straight from his body, and he was still expressionless, as if he was unconscious.

"If I hesitate any longer, I'll twist my head. Lao Sue urged unceremoniously, Xiao Qianye suddenly let go, and the empty sword fell into the snow.

"And the bird, let it fly south, and don't look back. An Yu was still not at ease, seeing the Tianzheng Bird staring at him not far away, Xiao Qianye turned his head, just raised his hand and made a gesture to the south, the Tianzheng Bird circled a few times overhead, and felt the sternness of the master, and flew away reluctantly.

"Well, just be obedient, let me think about what else. An Yu praised it, swaggered over, touched him up and down a few times, took out the family crest of the fierce beast from his arms, raised it curiously and stared at Qi Qi on it for a long time, and said strangely, "What is this......?" There seems to be some strange power on it, so forget it, let's throw it together. ”

She raised her hand and waved it vigorously, and the family crest drew a blue light and was thrown far away.

"Is there anything else?" Xiao Qianye anxiously urged, staring intently at the delirious Huo Cang, his torn arm was bleeding profusely, if the bleeding was not stopped as soon as possible, he would bleed to death!

"And most importantly. An Yu smiled ghostly, and at some point she had come up to Yun Xiao and touched her carefully.

"You!" he turned around suddenly, although his body had no strength, he still grabbed An Yu's hand!

"What a terrible look...... An Yu was startled by his ice blue eyes, and he also took a few steps back in fear, and it took a long time to regain his composure and cough lightly, "Those three bottles of medicine were given by the King of Water Prison, and they have been experimented on countless people, I remember that the speed of the drug attack is not as fast as cartilage poison, but it can last for more than a month! You will soon be unable to move, we are an old man, a small child, how can we take a big man like you back to recover our lives? Why don't you ...... How about letting this big sister help?"

"I'll help you!" Yun Xiao took over and grabbed Xiao Qianye, the palace master of An Yu smiled knowingly, turned his head and said, "Grandpa, is there any medicine left? Try it for this big sister to see if she can use it!"

"Oh, can this medicine still fail?" Lao Suo suddenly became interested, and touched three more bottles of the same medicine bottle and threw it over, "Don't waste it, this medicine is precious." ”

"Can you experiment on the Lingfeng Clan, are you afraid of wasting?" An Yu stared at Yun Xiao excitedly, ordinary spells couldn't get close to her body at all, and if she got close, she would be burned by the Breath of the Lingfeng, her own martial arts and swordsmanship skills were very exquisite, and she was indeed a very tricky character, but I don't know if these poisons that the King of Binding Water Hell had painstakingly researched for many years would not work on the Lingfeng Clan?

"Ah Xiao!" Xiao Qianye wanted to dissuade, but saw that Lao Suo's thin fingers had silently picked at the head of the cloth bag man, so he could only endure this breath.

Yun Xiao picked up the bottle on the ground and drank the potion, colorless and tasteless, like ordinary water, the phoenix fire ignited in her body, and then the frost and snow hidden in the bones and blood emitted a cold chill.

"Oops...... Look at you, I said it doesn't work, right?" The palace master of An Yu muttered meaningfully, and the old man's eyes only then appeared with surprise - this medicine has been tried on hundreds of alien races, and no one can resist, and the woman of the Lingfeng clan in front of her really has nothing to do?

Head of the Hundred Spirits...... It really lives up to its name.

"Then I'll have to use some other means, otherwise there will be a big problem, and I don't want to make a mistake." An Yu restrained her smile and grabbed Yun Xiao's hand, and just as she wanted to cut off this hand, the magic mirror she was carrying fell out with her.

"Huh?" she lowered her head, looked at the face that appeared in the magic mirror, and said unhappily, "What is the eldest princess doing here? I've already caught someone, don't you want me to cut off a hand and a leg? Do you have to let me take her to you without a hair hurting a single hair?"

"Don't be angry, the master of the palace. At the other end of the magic mirror, the Star Saintess touched her disfigured face, as if she was smiling, "There is a military pavilion master, I believe that Miss Yun will not dare to mess around, after all, she is a family...... It's the most emotional. ”

"Hmph. An Yu unceremoniously interrupted the magic mirror, but also restrained her heart that wanted to cut off her hands, she pointed at Xiao Qianye with her little finger, and threatened, "Big sister, don't do anything crooked, otherwise it will not only be him who is unlucky, but also the other guards of the military pavilion stationed in the four realms! The military pavilion master can do such a thing for a Huo Cang, and he definitely doesn't want to see the military pavilion that he has worked so hard to run...... Overnight, right?"

Xiao Qianye clenched his teeth, the other party was not threatening him, what the other party said was serious!

The reason why the imperial capital wanted to arrest him quietly in the dark was undoubtedly because he was afraid of the other guards of the military pavilion distributed in the four major realms, and once the military pavilion had a different heart, it would be a fatal blow to the imperial capital! His Majesty would take great pains to arrange the secret department to carry out this mission in order to avoid this worst outcome.

"Grandpa, how far is it from the nearest dark stronghold here?" An Yu no longer talked to them, Lao Su pinched his fingers and calculated, and said, "It's not far, it's also twenty miles away, let the old man lead the way for the palace master." ”

"Pavilion Master, big sister, you have to keep up. An Yu reminded quietly, she walked past Huo Cang, and pierced his heart with her hand again, just like the previous time, the pierced chest was like transparent, and there was still no blood flowing out!

Xiao Qianye was already a little unable to exert his strength, the poison and the serious injury in his abdomen made his face pale, his lips were black, and he still looked at Huo Cang nervously, he seemed to come back to his senses in an instant, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fainted next to the white tiger.

"Hold me. Yun Xiao fumbled and grabbed his arm and put it on her shoulder, her eyes couldn't see, but her eyes were still firm, "It's not the first time I've saved you, this time...... I can take you back safely. ”

Lao Suo led the way with his back hunched over, An Yu hummed a little song and followed, Xiao Qianye felt that her body was getting heavier and heavier, and almost the whole person was about to press on her!

"Just remember the way...... Don't worry about the rest. Yun Xiao spoke silently, and glanced at him blankly, her body trembled slightly, those poisons were not useless to her, she was just pretending to be calm in front of those two people!

Xiao Qianye was silent, feeling the cold wind faintly waving in her sleeves, and nodded.
