Chapter Seventy-Four: The Snow Field

Zhang Feiyang was unexpectedly stunned, and he couldn't react for a while.

After a long time, the person who took over was not the little girl Moon Shadow, but her father? And her father was already dead? So, she was destined to be a one-armed man in the future?

Zhang Feiyang could not accept such a result.

If he is just a mortal, then his hand is broken, then it is broken, and he will not have any regrets, who is too careless to let himself guard against the person who sneaks up on him?

Unfortunately, he has long ceased to be mortal.

For monks, the meaning of having a broken hand is not only as simple as being inconvenient to move, but also means that they will face huge defects on the path of cultivating immortals.

Because, through the long-term cultivation of aura, Zhang Feiyang knows very well how much aura is contained in one hand, which is naturally not enough compared with the aura contained in the whole body, but as the saying goes, mosquito meat is also meat.

Don't look at the usual aura is weaker, it doesn't matter, but if it is really dangerous, in case you encounter an opponent who is equal to your own strength, the same magic weapon power, and similar coping ability, then the final competition between yourself and others is the depth of aura.

If one hand is missing, it means that the innate aura will be worse than that of other late-stage Qi refining cultivators of the same level, and if you encounter such a situation where you have to compete for the strength of your aura, it will be a certain death.

Therefore, Zhang Feiyang attaches so much importance to this broken arm, if he can, he will naturally not give up the slightest possibility, and he will find a way to take his hand back.

Thinking of this, Zhang Feiyang gradually regained his composure and made a proposal to Moon Shadow: "Girl." If your father can take it, you will definitely be able to take it. You live with your father, and you haven't taken the severed limb personally, but you've always seen your father take it. Give me a try. As long as you can succeed, I am willing to pay you twice as much. ”

Zhang Feiyang reached into his arms, took out another spirit stone, and put it on the table.

At this time, the oil lamp has been lit in the room, but the light is very weak, the oil lamp is placed near the iron ingot, and can only barely illuminate the surroundings where the moon shadow is, but when Zhang Feiyang put the two spirit stones on the table, the two spirit stones released a dazzling colored light, one red, one blue, like two small suns, illuminating most of the area in the room as if it were day, making the moon shadow smile and smile, and his heart was excited, and his beautiful eyes showed the light of excitement.

It's a pity that after a while, she seemed to suddenly think of something, shook her head, and reluctantly withdrew her gaze, asking Zhang Feiyang to give up this idea as soon as possible: "No." You're still going to go. I really can't take it. ”

"Why? Is it because you don't have confidence in your own methods?" Zhang Feiyang glanced at it, unwillingly, thought of a possibility, and guessed.

This sentence seems to touch the reverse scales of the Moon Shadow.

She immediately turned on a straight face, glared at Zhang Feiyang, and said, "What do you say? How can I not be confident in my own methods? Just like you said. In fact, it is not difficult to pick up your arm. I've seen my dad do it many times since I was a kid. That's how it works, and I know it. You can't go wrong. ”

Seeing that she suddenly became so confident, Zhang Feiyang finally put her mind at ease, it seemed that it was another problem, and said with a smile: "Then what are you worried about? As long as you have confidence, everything will be easy to do." ”

Moon Shadow sighed.

"It's as simple as you say. To heal your severed hand, you need to complete at least two steps. Your hands are starting to show signs of decay, and they must have been broken for a few days. If you don't freeze it quickly, you won't be able to pick it up even if the time comes. So, the first step is that I have to make an ice box for your broken arm first. ”

Moon Shadow probed with his hand, took Zhang Feiyang's broken arm in his hand and observed it, and immediately gave Zhang Feiyang an accurate judgment.

Zhang Feiyang saw that she was still young, and when she observed the severed hand, she was the head of the analysis, shaking her head, looking like an experienced master, she was even more relieved, nodded her head again and again, asked her for help, and gave more promises of spirit stones.

It's a pity that Moon Shadow resolutely refused, and returned the two spirit stones on the table to Zhang Feiyang in distress, and was about to push him out.

How could Zhang Feiyang leave willingly.

This is the only way to get your hand back.

He retreated to the door and never retreated again, as if it were a statue, standing upright and motionless.

Moon Shadow pushed twice, seeing that Zhang Feiyang couldn't push it away, he suddenly seemed to have been wronged, his anxious eyes turned red, tears were about to flow out, he stomped his feet, and complained like an ordinary girl.

"What the hell do you want?"

Zhang Feiyang couldn't cry or laugh, innocently explained, he just wanted Moon Shadow to help treat the severed hand, and had no other ideas.

Moon Shadow then revealed the source of the refusal.

"It's not that I don't help you. I really can't do it. It is not possible to make an ice box with any ice cube. If you want your severed hand to keep the skin and flesh alive inside, you must use the Ice Stone. But this material is so rare that when my father was alive, there were a few pieces in the house, but now they have run out. ”

Zhang Feiyang touched his nose and said with a smile: "That's not simple, you tell me where this Xuanbing Stone came from." I'll get it for you. ”

Hearing Zhang Feiyang give such an answer with an understatement, Moon Shadow stared at his face in disbelief, wanting to see if he was joking or serious.

Because, in her opinion, that place is quite dangerous, even if the immortal cultivators who can take out the spirit stone, most of them have gone and never returned, she doesn't believe that Zhang Feiyang can have this ability, if he really goes, I'm afraid he will end up in the same fate.

It's a pity that Zhang Feiyang was wearing a cloak, and his whole face was hidden in the dark, so he couldn't see clearly.

Moon Shadow watched it for a long time, but naturally found nothing.

After retracting her gaze, she glanced at the spirit stone on the table, licked her dry lips, and said, "It's nothing to tell you, but it's too dangerous there." I'm afraid that if you go, you'll die. Also, will you take this spirit stone? If you can give me a deposit now, I will tell you all. ”

At this time, Zhang Feiyang was in a hurry to treat the severed hand, how could there be any hesitation, naturally he would believe what he heard, and he couldn't help but say, threw the two spirit stones to Moon Shadow together, and said with a smile: "Isn't it just a deposit." These two spirit stones are yours now. Whether the task can be completed or not. All right. Girl. Tell me. What kind of place is that?"

Moon Shadow was flattered, and carefully hid the spirit stone, only to suppress the excitement in his heart, and gave Zhang Feiyang a general introduction to the origin of the Xuanbing Stone.

An hour later, Zhang Feiyang left Xicheng and went to the northern border of Wu Kingdom, the extreme northern ice field.

It took two days for him to finally reach the destination that Moon Shadow had said.

At this time, what appeared in front of him was an open and endless snowfield, with goose feather snow falling in the air, and between the sky and the earth were cedars towering like iron towers, and the snow on the ground was three or four feet thick.

An ordinary person steps on it, and most of his body can sink into it.

Only a cultivator like Zhang Feiyang, who had reached the late stage of the Qi refining period, could rely on the assistance of the aura shield and gently step on the snow to hurry without any influence.

According to Moon Shadow's understanding, there is a snow lake in the center of this snow field, and the deepest part of the snow lake produces dark ice stones.

As for how the name Ice Stone came about, Moon Shadow explained that the temperature of the Snow Lake is the lowest, much lower than that of ordinary Ice Lakes, and that Ice Stone is an ice cube that can be as hard as a stone when the temperature is too low.

This kind of ice will never melt at room temperature, even if it is exposed to the scorching sun, it will not melt, ordinary flames want to make it melt naturally, only some special flames can melt the ice stone.

And if you want to preserve things like corpses or Zhang Feiyang's broken arms, it is naturally the most suitable to use Xuanbing Stone.

It's just that the Xuanbing Stone is a good thing, but the lake that produces the Xuanbing Stone is extremely dangerous, if an ordinary person touches it, his hand will immediately freeze and he will have to amputate his limbs, even if he is a monk, as long as his cultivation does not reach the late stage of the Qi refining period, he still can't avoid amputation.

What's more, the location of this lake in the snow is extremely hidden, not to mention the huge wind and snow outside, and a large area of cedar covering, in the case of not being able to identify the direction, it is easy to get lost, and freeze to death or starve to death here, naturally there are fewer and fewer people who come to take the Xuanbing Stone.

This is also the reason why Moon Shadow always insisted on giving up when she started.

How did she know that Zhang Feiyang's cultivation had reached the late stage of the Qi Refining Period, and in her opinion, whether the monks in the Qi Refining Period were in the early thousands, or the late stage, or the strongest Great Perfection Realm, it was the same.

Of course.

Zhang Feiyang has always been cautious, in order to avoid the danger of really getting lost in the ice field and running out of rations, he brought a large bag of food when he was about to set off.

Once he is hungry, he will take out the small stove, start the cooking mode of the small stove with flint, put some of the food that has been frozen into ice cubes, cook a meal, and then eat it slowly.

This snowfield is not a dangerous place.

On the first day he came here, he went from the sun rising in the morning until he went around and around to find the sun setting, and when night fell, he could not find the location of the lake in the snow.

The next day, he Zhang Feiyang did not believe in evil and continued to insist on searching.

It's just that, in order to avoid getting lost again, every once in a while, he will take out a spirit stone stick, and with a snap, he will smash a cedar tree at the waist and use it as a road sign.

Unfortunately, it is still impossible to find the lake in the snow with such a method.

Because, somehow, he didn't find until the third day that the cedars in the snow field were all standing as well, and there was not a single cedar that was broken yesterday.

This discovery made Zhang Feiyang a little painful.

Can't these cedars be broken, and if they are broken, they will quickly repair themselves?

With this question in mind, he tried to find a cedar tree to experiment with on the fourth day.

As a result, he pinched a cold sweat, and it was exactly what he expected, a cedar that had only been broken before half of the incense, after the time of the half of the incense, the stump and trunk, the branches and the leaves had disappeared, and a new cedar would inexplicably appear in the original position, exactly the same as the original.

Zhang Feiyang almost wondered if he was hallucinating, so he hurriedly approached and reached out to touch the trunk of the cedar tree to confirm whether it was real.

The answer made him a little depressed.

It's really cedar.

It was only then that he understood why many people in this place had not returned.

Another day passed, and he began to dig out of the snow with bones from his skull and torso.

It seems that those are the corpses left behind by others who have ventured here in the past.

Thinking of this, Zhang Feiyang became serious, paused, stopped, and observed the wind, snow and cedars around him again, and a bold idea gradually emerged in his heart.

With a flick of his hand, he took out the Traceless Belt from his arms and held one end in his hand, and threw the other end out with a slurp, wrapping the trunk of a cedar tree in front of him, and then, injecting aura, let the Traceless Belt extend while pulling the Traceless Belt to the next cedar.
