Chapter 209: Looking at the North Tomb Mountain

The north wind was whistling, and then he walked to Wangbei Mountain, but the cold wind was already blowing desperately like a nightmare, and it penetrated into his sleeves fiercely, as if he wanted to drain the heat of his whole body to the point that there was not a drop left.

"Brother Changfeng, why do I feel colder and colder?" Jiang Ning, who was beside the young man, asked with a pout, his hands wrapped around his robe, and he seemed to tremble a little.

Although Jiang Tong is a girl, after all, she is older, and she can still withstand this cold. I didn't see her silent, just silent along the way.

"Come, put on your cloak and put it on. Xu Changfeng took off his coat and draped it on Jiang Ning.

"Brother Changfeng, aren't you cold?" With one more coat, Jiang Ning's breath eased a lot, but he looked at Xu Changfeng with some reluctance and asked.

The young man shook his head with a smile: "It's okay, when we wait for Wangbei Mountain, we will add a few more winter clothes, and we won't be afraid of the cold when the time comes." ”

The three of them got out of the car early this morning, and in order to avoid the suspicion of the Liu family, the coachman didn't dare to come out for too long, so he turned around and galloped back. Fortunately, the ancestral medicine in this store is indeed amazing, and Xu Changfeng himself is a cultivator, so it has only been four hours, and he can already walk on foot.

If you don't open your clothes and look at it, you really don't know that he has just been seriously injured.

At this time, after noon, the sun weakens, and the further you go, the colder it becomes. According to the leg strength of the three people, it should be possible to look at the North Mountain and buy winter clothes before dark. But before getting off the car, the coachman repeatedly emphasized that the Liu family would definitely send people to watch at the Beishan checkpoint, and if you want to go to the North Underworld, you can't take the official road, you have to bypass the mountain.

In this way, it is necessary to spend the night on Wangbei Mountain.

"Sister, I'm hungry......" As he was walking, Jiang Ning couldn't help but hold his stomach and whispered.

Jiang Tong blinked his eyes, took out a piece of coarse cake from his baggage, broke it in half and handed it to Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning took the coarse cake and took a big bite. He was too young to know that this coarse bread was the last ration for the three of them.

I was in a hurry last night, and I couldn't replenish dry food, thinking of this, Jiang Tong couldn't help but worry.

"Benefactor......" She stared at the coarse cake for a moment, hesitated for a moment, looked towards the boy, and gently stretched out the remaining half of the coarse cake.

Xu Changfeng shook his head, "I'm not hungry, you can eat." ”

"How can this be done!" Jiang Tong naturally didn't believe this, and said that cultivators can eat less, but they can't have an empty stomach. If they meet the people of the Liu family again, the young man is the last reliance of their sister and brother.

"It's okay, when I go to the mountains, I'll find a way to catch some game. The boy said with a smile.

Jiang Tong is a few years younger than her, but she knows how to be sophisticated. Xu Changfeng also asked himself along the way, is it worth spending so much effort to help two strangers who have never known each other.

Nature is not worth it.

"Girl, you must live well......" Looking at Jiang Tong's silhouette, the young man couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Now that the whereabouts of the North Autumn Wind are unknown, the mysterious pair of brothers and sisters don't know what happened.

Xu Changfeng is no longer a stunned young man who has been roaming the rivers and lakes for the first day, and ten years of Chang'an is enough for him to understand a lot of truths. Zhou Qixuan's intervention made him feel a little bloody on the short road of cultivation.

Otherwise, facing Liu Ye last night, he would have died.

Because of the avoidance of official roads, it takes a lot of time.

At dusk, the three of them climbed Wangbei Mountain. Since the stability of the North Underworld, there have been no pedestrians in Wangbei Mountain, even so, you can still find some remnants of soldiers here, lonely graves.

The boy drew his lone shadow dagger and cleaved the weeds along the way, carefully climbing the mountain.

The burials here are all unknown martyrs, some of whom have left only one hand, and some of whom have disappeared. Even during the Qingming Festival, not many people will come to pay their respects. What's more, who would want to believe that their children and grandchildren died on the battlefield?

Dead and dead are sometimes a ridiculous prayer.

WhewW......

Because of the hesitation of the setting sun, the remnants of the slanting sun were mostly blocked by Wangbei Mountain, and the surrounding scenery was much darker for a while.

The two siblings who ate half a coarse cake didn't feel any tiredness, just looked at the lonely graves around them, and the secluded atmosphere was enough to make people feel weird.

"There are a lot of graves here...... Jiang Ning seemed to be a little scared, and his right hand tightly tugged at the corner of Xu Changfeng's clothes. It seems that only by being close to this person can he get a little sense of security.

"Ahh

Fortunately, the young man stepped forward in time to grab her arm, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

"What's wrong?" Xu Changfeng asked with concern.

It is impossible for the Liu family to chase soldiers in this kind of place, but his divine sense did not relax for a moment, but he did not notice anything strange. Therefore, he was a little puzzled by Jiang Tong's fright.

Jiang Tong's face turned pale, he kept panting with his small mouth open, and stretched out a trembling finger to a bush.

It's a miserable white and dry bone!

Jiang Ning just glanced at it, and immediately his palms were sweaty with fright, and he hurriedly closed his eyes.

A skeleton is not very scary, but the sudden appearance of a skeleton in the graves all over the mountains is not for fun.

Because of the perennial exposure, the dry bones have been stained with a lot of yellow mud, and the skeleton is also a little dry and cracked. If it weren't for the cold weather here and the fact that it doesn't rain often, it would have been buried in the geography long ago.

"Brother Changfeng, I'm afraid ......" Jiang Ning's voice sobbed, as if he was crying.

Jiang Tong didn't say anything, looked down at his feet, and didn't dare to look around.

Spending the night in Wangbei Mountain is not that no one has done it. But anyone who is normal will not choose to stay in this kind of place for too long.

As the saying goes, the dead are yin, and all kinds of strange things are always prone to happen in the prosperous place.

Jiang Ning forced his eyes, and suddenly noticed something cold stuffed into his palm. Stroke it like a scabbard. He's small

Xinyi opened his eyes and saw that the scabbard of the Lone Shadow Short Sword was being held in his hand.

Xu Changfeng said softly: "With the sword, you won't be afraid." ”

"Hmm. Jiang Ning took a deep breath and nodded tremblingly.

"Let's get out of here and find a place with fewer graves to rest. He then said to Jiang Tong, "If you are afraid, follow my footsteps and don't look elsewhere." ”

Jiang Tong's face was slightly red, and he nodded silently.

At this moment, Xu Changfeng was also a little panicked in his heart, fortunately, he was not the weak young man he was a year ago, as a fourth-order cultivator, he was not too afraid of things like ghosts and gods.

If there really is something evil that is causing trouble, it will be cut off with a sword.

Back then, the Snow Clan army and the Dynasty army fought dozens of battles in the area of Wangbei Mountain, and many corpses were not processed in a hurry, and there were not a few scattered in the forest, so there was a situation where the white bones were in the open air.

The more people die, the more lush the trees grow.

Walking up the hill, there were fewer graves. Along the way, Xu Changfeng was not idle. Originally, I wanted to say that I was going to hunt some game, but I didn't worry that Jiang Tong's sister and brother would stay alone, so I had to dispel this idea.

Fortunately, there are a lot of mushrooms growing on the mountain, and he picks them all the way with the burden of dry food, which is enough for three people to eat for a day.

Xu Changfeng found a big rock, simply cleaned up the nearby weeds, and lit a fire before dark. The mushrooms are skewered with slender branches and roasted over a flame.

"Unexpectedly, your cooking skills are really good. Jiang Tong looked at Jiang Ning who was gobbling up on the side, and couldn't help but smile.

Although this mushroom does not stick to oil and salt, it is a tired day after all, and everything you eat at the moment feels fragrant.

"How can I live alone for a long time and can't cook?" Xu Changfeng smiled helplessly.

"That's it......" Jiang Tong's expression was a little gloomy, and it was not good to ask any further, staring at the fragrant kao mushroom in her hand, she couldn't help but murmur in a low voice, "When I was a child, my mother always wanted to teach me a lot of things. But I'm lazy and want to learn later. Who knows that before it arrives, my mother will be gone......"

"It's going to be over, it's okay. Xu Changfeng took a bite of the mushroom and said, "When you get to your relatives' house, this kind of hard life will come to an end." ”

"Relatives' ......" Jiang Tong couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard these words, "Our family's affairs are like a pot of porridge." I only hope that Jiang Ning will not be involved and live well. ”

"Sister, what nonsense are you talking about again?" Jiang Ning was eating, and couldn't help but raise his head and ask.

Jiang Tong squeezed out a smile and gently stroked his hair, "It's okay, eat more, go to bed quickly after eating, your eldest brother Changfeng is also tired, don't let him toss too late." ”

"Sister, when I grow up, I will also protect you like Brother Changfeng!" Jiang Ning looked at Jiang Tong and said with a straight face.

"Well, sister is waiting for you. Jiang Tong said.
