Chapter 80: The Red-Eyed Snow Lion
The reason why this beast is unique to the Tianyuan Dynasty is because only the temperature in the north is just right for the red-eyed snow lion to survive, and the temperature in the south is too high, and the snow lion with too lush and rich fur cannot dissipate heat.
Therefore, red-eyed snow lions often like to live in cold places, and the top of Fengming Mountain has continuous wind and snow all year round, but it is possible to encounter snow lions living alone.
"Shao Yu, am I a little difficult for you?"
The terrain at the top of the mountain is steep, and it is easy to get lost due to the constant wind and snow. The two of them planned to try their luck in the forest first, that is, Mo Wei took the officials up the mountain to hunt in his spare time, and at most he only went to the mountainside and never climbed the peak. The two snow lions, one big and one small, who were caught by bad luck, were unfortunately bumped into Jimo and his group on the mountainside when they came out to hunt.
However, I don't know if there have been more people hunting in Fengming Mountain in recent years, although Jimo Wei prohibits large-scale hunting for the sake of mountain ecology, and limits the number of hunting by officials and people, but there are still many fewer birds and beasts living in the mountains.
"Little without conscience. Jun Qian smiled, this is also embarrassing?
His doll is really the same as always...... Lovely.
However, this seemed to imply that he "can't do it", which made him a little shocked.
Of course, it's good to show her.
"Would you like to follow me to the top of the mountain?" After speaking, he looked at her, "It's a pity that she wears a little little, and the doll is so afraid of the cold, why don't you just wait for me here?"
Jiuxi shook his head, thought about it, and took out a set of Dan Pattern Blazing Qiu Yu from the storage ring,...... It was Lang Le's birthday gift to her, many years ago, but this set of blazing Qiu Yu is said to be made of Chongming Feather, and it can change with her height and close-fitting.
When I was a child, I felt that it was too ostentatious to put it in the storage space, and I forgot about it for a long time, but it was perfect to wear it at this time.
The feather of Chongming itself can produce a sense of heat, and with the thickness of this fur, Jiuxi is like a small fireball after wearing it, which looks extremely dazzling in the monotonous forest.
The bird that was coiling in the treetops saw Chongming Yu crying more cheerfully, Jun Qianyu looked down, there was a small ball wrapped under the red feather coat, only the hairy head was exposed, and he felt that it was indeed thick, so he was relieved to take her to the top of the mountain.
The little doll has white and tender skin, and its face is more gorgeous and good-looking, which is extremely suitable for wearing red.
However, the last time he saw her wearing red, it was at the Thousand Clans Ceremony, she was wearing a Xuanyang fire skirt given by Qingyao, and obediently followed him to participate in the ceremony. He knew the little girl's thoughts, and the Fire Phoenix clan admired red, so she didn't want to be too different when she participated in the ceremony with his clan.
The two rode to the top of the mountain, and when they reached the mountainside, the terrain was extremely steep and steep, facing the cold wind and hunting, the cold wind seemed to return to the harsh winter wax moon, the wind was raging and disturbed people couldn't open their eyes, Jiuxi wrapped the Qiu Yu on his body more tightly, Jun Qian saw it, took her into his arms, and blocked the wind for her.
Under the fierce wind and biting chill swept in front of her, Jiuxi shrank in the crook of Jun Qian's arm to shield her from the wind and cold, but she didn't feel the cold, and the corners of her lips were still interested in a smile.
The wind was whistling in his ears, and his heart was inexplicably warm and cheerful.
She stretched out her little hand and pulled the placket of the young man behind her, Jun Qianyu noticed it, thinking that she had something to say, and stopped the horse in the wind, but saw that the little girl quickly turned the direction on the horse, facing his little head and shrunk in his arms, stretched out his hands to hold his waist, and the heavy feather in front of him was tightly attached to his waist and abdomen, burning a piece of warmth in his chest.
He didn't feel much cold at first, but now he was a little greedy for the warmth of the girl in his arms.
The two galloped to the top of the mountain, but the red horse was pulled by the wind and could not move an inch. The two dismounted and found a cave to shelter from the wind.
There is a vast white area on the top of the mountain, and it is indeed extremely difficult to find the red-eyed snow lion, Jiuxi regrets that he is more serious about himself, so it is better to let Shao Yu hunt a prey at will.
It's just that with this person's heart and temperament, I guess I am afraid that he will not be willing.
At this time, it is even more impossible to mention to him the idea of giving up, it is better for the two of them to work together to find out the clues of the red-eyed snow lion.
With a mind in his heart, Jiuxi took out a group of treasures from the storage space that he had collected from childhood to adulthood, and picked out a few magic weapons that were beneficial to the current situation, which did not look like ordinary products. Even Mo Wei is also generous to give her a rare treasure, Zhongli Zuo Xiang doesn't want her to choose, fortunately, Zuo Xiang is broad-minded, since he knew about it, he has never fought with her little doll.
Jun Qianyu held his face aside with a hint of curiosity as he watched the girl take out a treasure of magic weapons from her arms, he knew that she had storage space to carry with her.
After all, there is a master who is a demon venerable, and it is not unusual to have this storage space, magic weapon treasures, including the Dan pattern red fire Qiu Yu made of heavy Ming Yu on his body.
Jun Qianyu didn't care about these things in his heart, after all, he was a mortal now, and he couldn't promise him everything she wanted. And she had Langle to participate in those times when she was young, and he had time to accompany him in the future, and he had no position to ask her to erase it from her memory at will.
"What's the doll's idea?"
"The red-eyed snow lion is very easy to hide in the snow, but there are two things that cannot be hidden. ”
"Red eyes and footprints. Jun Qianyu answered quite face-to-face.
The girl's beautiful little face curled her eyes, revealing a faint small pear vortex next to her cheeks. "Shao Yu is so smart. ”
Jun Qianyu calmly accepted this compliment, and said: "Dolls are also smart." ”
The two of them did want to go together, they came out early, and the sky had not yet darkened, but the wind and snow were too big, and it was inconvenient for them to stay for a long time, so it was better to fight quickly.
The two of them walked out of the cave in the wind, Jiuxi had a blazing fire on his body, and he couldn't feel the cold around him, Jun Qianyan seemed to be immune to this biting cold, and he didn't see anything unusual about him.
Jiuxi also has Sinan and a polar eyepiece on his body, one is used to identify the direction, and the other is used to see objects from a very long distance to detect the traces of the red-eyed snow lion.
The two of them were not unlucky, and after walking a distance, they saw a few paw prints in front of them that had not yet had time to be covered by ice and snow, Jiuxi reached out and twisted the snow-colored hairs sticking on the paw prints, and smiled at Jun Qian.
If they want to hunt the red-eyed snow lion, they can't shoot arrows to hunt, and if they hurt this rare beast, they will not say that they are sad, and they will have no value in hunting and domesticating.
However, Jun Qianyu has a secret method, which he learned from Liu Qianqiu when he was young.
I followed the paw prints all the way to a cliff, and saw a huge red-eyed snow lion not far away with red eyes like glass, lying on the rock and licking its paws lazily.
There was also a small snow lion lying beside him, snuggling up to the big snow lion, like a big white snowball, if it weren't for the two pairs of red bloodshot eyes, one big and one small, they might not be able to find this little hairball.
At this time, the wind and snow were slightly lighter, and the snow quickly melted when it fell on the body, and the two snow lions, one large and one small, also seemed to be accustomed to this bad weather, and they were not affected at all and even enjoyed the feeling of the fine snow melting in the fur.
Jiuxi remembered that she had also heard that the red-eyed snow lion was a beast that loved to be clean, and it must be that she was using snow water to clean her fur.
It's no wonder that their hair is as pure as snow as always, without a trace of dirt.
Jiuxi turned his face to look at Jun Qianyu and raised his eyebrows, meaning "It's your turn to appear."
Originally, this hunt was for the husband to show his strength to his new wife and give him a "farewell gift", and he asked him what kind of prey he wanted before, so he should be prepared.
Jun Qianyu looked at the expectant look in the girl's eyes, and those eyes seemed to be full of stars, which made him feel a little funny for a while.
Handing her a reassuring look, Jun Qian glanced at the movements of the snow lions, and seeing that they didn't notice the movement here, he took out a slender leaf from his bosom that he had just picked at random in the mountainside forest, and blew a few tones on his lips.
Bainiao is the best at music, and as the patriarch of the Yu clan, how can he not understand string music. Many years ago, when he went out hunting, he taught him a song about taming animals, which was peaceful and peaceful, which could make the beasts relax and fall asleep slowly. When you wake up, you won't get into trouble with your animal nature, as long as you use this song to appease you from time to time, no matter how fierce the beast is, you will soon be able to understand a trace of the mood of the blower, and gain a bit of spirituality.
Later, he regained his memory, and he played this song more handily, and made some slight modifications, birds and beasts can be affected by this song, which is why he can rest assured that he only came to Fengming Mountain with Jiuxi.
No matter how bad it is, he has the aura of a ghost brake, and he has two points of mana blessing, there will be no accidents.
The two snow lions, one big and one small, listened to the gentle music and closed their eyes and fell asleep leisurely. Jiuxi listened to it on the side, and also felt that his mood was gradually calming, as if all the violent anger could be easily dissolved by this song.
The young man who played the music stood with a long body, his face was clear and plain, his eyes were a little careless, and he was playing with a long leaf on his lips, and his whole body was elegant and outstanding, as if he was the only one left in the world, and he could no longer see anything in his eyes.
After the song was blown, the snow lion fell asleep completely. Jiuxi didn't speak, and there was silence all around, only the sound of the wind rustling through the snow could be heard.
Jun Qian's voice was a little hoarse and asked, "Do you want to learn this song?" ”
Jiuxi came back to his senses, but he didn't care about the ridicule in his tone, as if he had heard him say these indecent things too much in the past few days, and he was actually a little used to it. Only a little embarrassed to say: "I'm not very good at music, I'm afraid I'm going to waste some of Shaoyu's kindness." ”
Jun Qian hooked her lips and smiled, and her tone was meaningful: "It's okay, we still have a long time, and there is always time to teach you slowly." ”
Jiuxi nodded in response, and was a little worried about how to transport the two snow lions, one big and one small, back to the palace.
Jun Qian said, "This song can maintain the snow lions' sleep for four hours, enough for the ghost ghost to carry them back." ”
"You let the Ghost Shadow Rider follow?" Jiu Xi thought that the Ghost Shadow Rider should be doing more serious things under him, but let him use it as a personal guard.
"Guarding at the bottom of the mountain, otherwise how can you and I transport this snow lion back?" Jun Qianyu gave her a helpless look and said casually.
