This trip to the secluded city Mu Xiao chose to take the wrong road, this way over in addition to the mountains and mountains, and no one appeared. Turning over a mountain and looking at it, the mountains are still overlapping, but the mountains in sight at this moment are very different from those that have been passed before. There are no steep peaks, no dense woods, only sparse vegetation on the low hills, and the exposed stones resemble scars from the hills. Under the scorching sun, the hot air of the hills could be faintly seen, and Mu Xiao stopped and looked at the square where the Tianshan Mountains meet, outlining a beautiful arc.

"Brother Xiao, when we get out of this mountain forest, we can get to Tongzhen, and we have to arrive before dark. Jiang Qiaoqiao pointed to the distant sky and said, wearing a straw hat on his head, looking like a chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes. The delicate sword spike behind him flew in the sun with the wind, accompanied by a few strands of long hair, which made Mu Xiao a little fascinated.

"Qiaoqiao, it would be nice if we could wander the rivers and lakes like we do now. Mu Xiao stood behind and looked at her and smiled leisurely.

Jiang Qiaoqiao turned her head sideways, her crimson face was a little shy, and she replied with a smile that was covered by a straw hat with half of her cheeks: "Aren't we just wandering the rivers and lakes now?" Let's hurry first, if you can't walk out of this mountain forest before dark, there will be a lot of danger." ”

Walking down is the bare hills, the temperature around this mountain forest has obviously changed dramatically, and the scorching feeling makes Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao sweat before they have gone far, and the two of them are like steamed buns in a steamer. The bare rocks are steaming hot in the sun, and even some of the wildflowers and weeds that grow here are dry at such temperatures. The cracked dirt occasionally blew up puffs of dust before dissipating into the air.

Looking at the straw hat on Jiang Qiaoqiao's head, not long after entering here, the originally verdant thatch had been rolled up and became a little dark at this time. Mu Xiao wiped the sweat on his face, a hot feeling came from his forehead, and a red mark was clearly branded on his forehead: "This place is hot, it's early autumn now, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be such a high temperature, there must be something wrong with this mountain forest." ”

Jiang Qiaoqiao fanned the wind with her hand, and her face was also sweating like rain at this time. Originally, there was a closer way to Tongyou, that is, from the other side of the border city. It's just that this time the two of them went to the border city to find (the ancient book of demon suppression), so it was inconvenient to leave too many traces.

Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at the heat rising on the hill and said to Mu Xiao: "This is the place where Youlong and Qingyang meet, and it is what people often call the two heavens of ice and fire. On weekdays, few people pass through here, because the Qingyang side is hot and the refining furnace is hot, and the Youlong side is indeed as cold as an ice cellar. It is difficult for ordinary people to adapt to the sudden change of two temperatures, and what is even more terrifying is that the further you go to the middle, the more complicated the situation becomes. ”

Mu Xiao looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao with some distress, he had just walked into the hill for a few miles at this time, and the two of them were already a little uncomfortable, I am afraid that the situation inside is not optimistic. However, it seems that there is no big problem when he looks at Jiang Qiaoqiao, but he looks confident. Mu Xiao wanted to pass over a hot stone, when his feet approached, it was like a fire burning beside him, he walked forward a few steps in front of Jiang Qiaoqiao suddenly stopped and said again: "Brother Xiao, the source of temperature here is mainly the mountain rocks exposed to the sun, in addition to maintaining a calm state of mind, we should avoid the mountain stones, it should be easier to walk." ”

Jiang Qiaoqiao also seemed to have discovered the mystery, as long as there were large mountain rocks exposed to the sun, it would be unbearably hot. The two of them continued to walk forward avoiding the rocks, and sure enough, the influence of the temperature along the way did not seem to be as good as before

It's obvious.

Even so, looking at the hills connected one after the other is a big head. Sweating all the way, the water bladder on his body could no longer support the two of them to walk out of this hot mountain. The further awe went, the more obvious something was wrong, and scattered skeletons began to appear on the hills, followed by more and more dried corpses wrapped in ragged clothes.

Just over a hill, a wave of heat blew in the wind, as if opening the lid of a steamer. Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao couldn't help but take a few steps back, the two of them stabilized their bodies and looked forward, a ravine under the hill was covered with white smoke, as if cold water had been poured on red iron, making a sizzling sound. On the opposite side was a vast white mountain field, as if covered with frost. It looks eerie and desolate.

"This is the boundary between the two countries - the corridor of ice and fire. "The more I walked in, the more the heat from the soles of my feet penetrated the soles of my shoes and spread directly to the human body. Jiang Qiaoqiao's skin was as red as a ripe apple at this time, and her dark eyes showed a rare look of surprise when she looked at Mu Xiao.

Mu Xiao knew that walking here was not the most difficult time, looking at the ravines where the white smoke rose, spreading along the hill to both sides, it was impossible to see the end at all, but the white smoke source area several zhang wide had already made the two of them a little numb.

There were bones everywhere beside the ravine, and some of them were even eaten away by the wind, and the strange aura became more and more intense. Mu Xiao looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao's firm gaze and reassured her a lot, and stretched out her big hand to Jiang Qiaoqiao: "Come, hold on to me!"

The two held hands together, feeling the temperature of each other's palms. Mu Xiao suddenly pulled Jiang Qiaoqiao's whole person into his arms, and his heartbeat was so clear and audible at this moment.

Faced with Mu Xiao's actions, Jiang Qiaoqiao was a little panicked, but she couldn't allow her to struggle more. Mu Xiao's hand followed her soft and wanted to wrap around, and the two of them got closer.

"You!"

"Don't talk!"

Golden light appeared around Mu Xiao's body, and the brilliant enchantment instantly surrounded the two of them. The moment his feet touched the ground, a golden light passed through the white smoke area. The messy skeletons below moved slightly in the wind, and Jiang Qiaoqiao, who was hugged by Mu Xiao, looked down, and the scene in front of her made her pores wide.

The ravine under the white smoke turned out to be a pile of white Sensen's bones, exuding a thick evil aura. When she was thinking, it was as if the whole person had been thrown into the steamer, and before she could sweat, a biting cold air hit her.

The two of them landed on a slope, and there was a cracking sound under their feet, and when they looked down, they could clearly see that the ground had formed a thin sheet of ice, and a striped road had cracked where they had fallen.

Jiang Qiaoqiao suddenly broke free from Mu Xiao's arms and turned his back to him and said, "It's shameless, take advantage of the opportunity!"

That being said, there was a warm current in my heart on this cold hill. Behind him, Mu Xiao looked embarrassed and scratched the back of his head with his big hand, he was forced to do this just now, if he didn't do it, I was afraid that it would be difficult to get through that weird ravine.

"Sure enough, it's ice and fire, it's so hot that people sweat like a stream, and it's so cold that the blood wants to freeze, I think we have to get out of here quickly!" Mu Xiao pretended not to hear Jiang Qiaoqiao's words, and glanced at the surrounding hills.

Although the sun was still shining, the cold here did not abate at all, and even breathing was a little difficult, and I felt that my hands and feet began to be cold, as if the blood flow was slowing down.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and swept forward in depth, and this position was off the ditch

The ravine is still relatively close, and you must leave as fast as possible. After a few moments, both of them landed on the side of the hill at the same time. Although it is not as cold as it was in the previous location, it is not comparable to a normal winter day.

The location of the two of them already belongs to the territory of Youlong, as long as they walk twenty miles, it should be Tongzhen, and it is precisely these twenty miles that are also the most difficult journey, after all, the environment here seems to be much more complicated than the side of Qingyang. Not to mention the piles of rocks, you can also see traces of ground collapse from time to time.

Smack!

When Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao were desperately hurrying, a voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, and the pores of the two exploded at this moment. Looking back, on the edge of a pile of rubble, a touch of purple was waving in the cold wind. As the wind grew stronger, the purple thing rose higher and made a crackling sound.

Mu Xiao's brows became deeper and deeper, and the eyes on both sides of the word (Chuan) flashed at this moment. He swept towards the purple thing as he stood in front of the rocks. Finally confirmed her hunch just now, the woman in front of her breathed weakly and curled up beside the pile of rocks. His trembling arms were tightly guarded against his body, and there were several bloody marks on his face. The eyes and eyebrows that were closed had turned into white ice flowers.

"Is it her?" Seeing the situation, Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at Qi Nian next to the rock, and his eyes towards Mu Xiao became a little complicated, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and said, "Shouldn't she be in the border city?

"I don't know, it's important to save people, or do you want to come?"

Jiang Qiaoqiao is here, Mu Xiao doesn't dare to touch other women's bodies without consent, and the woman in front of him is fickle, so he can have less contact.

Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't think about it, he looked at Mu Xiao coldly and said, "Go to the side!"

"Good!"

Mu Xiao didn't dare to say more, and stepped aside. Jiang Qiaoqiao leaned over and helped Qi Nian up, and put two fingers on his wrist and probed for a while, his face became more and more solemn.

With a helpless expression, he looked at Mu Xiao and said, "There is a cold aura in her body that does not belong to her, it seems to be eroding her body, and I am not sure if you should try it!"

Mu Xiao wanted to speak and stopped, originally wanting to say that there was indeed a cold qi in Qi Nian's body. It's just a flash of inspiration in my head, and if I say that, I will inevitably be thrown into the ice cellar.

At this time, he pointed to himself and pretended to be surprised and said, "I, whether a man or a woman can kiss or not, why don't you probe carefully?"

"It's important to save people, hurry!" Jiang Qiaoqiao got up and dragged Mu Xiao's arm to push Qi Nian, Mu Xiao looked reluctant, which made Jiang Qiaoqiao secretly happy in his heart.

Mu Xiao squatted down, gently lifted Qi Nian's hand, and dropped two fingers on Qi Nian's wrist, never daring to make more contact. After a while, he raised his sleeves and got up, turned to Jiang Qiaoqiao behind him and said, "Indeed, as you said, the cold qi in her body is spreading, and the cold qi must be forced to suppress in one place before she can save her life." ”

"Then what are you talking about? The environment here is so bad, it will be troublesome to drag it on. After Jiang Qiaoqiao finished speaking, he looked at the sky, at this time the sun had set, and there were still signs of wind on the hills.

Mu Xiao naturally felt the changes in the environment here, although it was not dark, but as the sun set, the temperature here became colder, and there was even a yin wind blowing.

At this moment, he can't be allowed to think too much, and if he drags it out any longer, it will really be in big trouble.
