Chapter 18: Yin Lian
Mu Han didn't wear a watch, and Lu Jialin didn't have a watch.
But Lu Jiarin's feeling has always been very accurate, and now it should be around noon.
The huge Locks Peak obscured most of the sun, and they groped their way through the dark shadows, and since they had already entered the north, the temperature dropped a little.
Mu Han wrapped his scarf tightly, feeling that it was even colder here than when he was on the Lock Peak.
After all, he was basking in the sun all the time when he went up, and he hugged Lu Jiarin when he came down.
And here, she can only be blown by the wind.
Although she doesn't want to admit it, she really misses Lu Jialin's back.
"Will it be so cold all these days?" Mu Han sighed into his hand, not daring to rub it, for fear of pain.
Lu Jiarin had been walking in front, and when she heard her words, she replied: "Winter has arrived, so it will naturally be colder." β
"Is it true that this place can't get the sun?"
Lu Jialin looked up and glanced at the lock peak behind him.
"Look at it, maybe there will be some sunshine in the evening or in the morning. β
Mu Han immediately lowered his face, forget about the cold, it has always been so dark here, and it was really terrifying.
"Are you a little scared?" Lu Jialin vaguely remembered that ordinary women were a little afraid of the dark.
Mu Han's expression was embarrassed, she was indeed a little afraid of the dark, but she didn't want others to know, let alone let Lu Jialin say that.
She didn't know Lu Jialin's thoughts, otherwise she would have to complain, how could there be an inevitable connection between fear of black and gender?
Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Lu Jialin took her as a default, so she slowed down and walked to her side.
Mu Han glanced at him and knew what he meant, although he wanted to forcibly fill up a wave of faΓ§ade, he was still deeply impressed by the reality, and he didn't say anything about the refusal.
The shadow is not really a dark night, although the two of them walked difficult and dangerous, but there were no accidents, after getting used to such an environment, some obstacles and ravines on the ground can also be seen from afar.
Under such a shade, vegetation is even rarer, but there are still some lichens and mosses and the like, which are a little slippery when walking up, and almost make Mu Han fall.
Lu Jialin quickly helped her, but didn't move forward, squatted down and touched the moss.
"What's wrong?" asked Mu Han.
"What season is this?" Lu Jialin frowned, and did not answer Mu Han's question, but asked rhetorically.
Mu Han was stunned for a moment and said, "It's winter." β
She didn't realize anything until she looked at Lu Jiarin's deeper and deeper brows, and then felt the slippery soles of her feet.
"Winter, ......"
yes, it's winter, how can there be moss growing here, and it still feels so moist?
"The real Yinlian Mountains are almost here. Lu Jiarin said, standing up, "There may be some danger ahead, you have to follow me." β
Needless to say, Mu Han felt that she had followed him close enough, otherwise, she always felt that the darkness around her would swallow her.
The two walked up again, Lu Jialin was next to Mu Han, a little faster, the Lianqing Sword in his hand was trembling slightly, it was the induction of the Lianyun Sword, getting closer and closer.
What is the real Yin Lian Mountains?
Mu Han always thought that when she and Lu Jialin stood in that shadow, they had already entered the Yinlian Mountain Range, and she even thought that in addition to being a little darker and colder, this place was not as terrifying as the legend said.
Now she knew that the previous section of the road was just a transition, and now the mountain range in front of her was the real Yinlian Mountain Range.
If you look at it from a distance, you can't see the difference between the two.
This thought was swirling in Mu Han's mind until she stood in front of the Yin Lian Mountain Range, and then when she took a few more steps, she finally felt something unusual.
It's still cold, it's just a little different.
"What's going on?"
Mu Han looked at the river flowing in front of him and was stunned.
Lu Jialin glanced at it and said very calmly: "That's it, the Yinlian Mountain Range is the legendary Yinlian Mountain Range. β
"Extremely cold but not frozen rivers, strange and imperceptible gravel ravines, and some unknown mysterious things, this is the Yinlian Mountains. β
Lu Jiarin said so much, Mu Han was just a little interested in the river in front of him.
The river was not fast, but very steady, so that the eyes saw it, and the sound of the rushing water sounded in their ears.
Since it was right in front of him, Mu Han was not afraid, and put his hand into the river water to try it.
But in less than a second, she quickly withdrew her hand, looking at the cold air coming out of her fingertips, and there was a tendency to frost, Mu Han hurriedly sighed, and didn't care about the wound, and rubbed her hands vigorously.
"Why is it so cold?!"
Lu Jialin frowned when she saw her reckless behavior, but still explained: "This is the famous non-freezing river in the Yinlian Mountain Range, it just can't freeze, it doesn't mean it's not cold." β
Mu Han glanced at the river with palpitations, and was about to turn back, but he was stunned.
In that river, a black shadow flashed just now, and I don't know if it was my dazzle or what, anyway, it was fleeting.
"Is there any living creature in this river?" asked Mu Han, rubbing his eyes.
Lu Jialin looked at her in surprise and said, "What did you see?"
"There seems to be a dark shadow passing by just now, but I didn't see it clearly. β
When Lu Jialin heard this, he pondered for a moment and said, "I really don't know if there are any living creatures in this river, but it's better to be careful and stay away from the river as much as possible." β
Mu Han nodded and agreed, she has always stayed away from this inexplicable thing, she reached out to touch it just now but didn't react, as if she was in the safe zone of online games.
However, neither of them expected that not long after this decision was made, they were slapped in the face by reality.
Mu Han looked at the situation in front of him, although he had no eggs, he always felt that his eggs should hurt.
"Does this river have to be crossed?"
Yes, the river was still in front of them after all, flowing gently, but the width was still a little dizzying.
"Hmm. Lu Jiarin nodded, his expression in the face of such a river was more solemn than when he faced the Lock Peak, and even the hand holding the Lianqing Sword was a little harder.
"Why don't we go around?" Mu Han asked tentatively, but was quickly vetoed by Lu Jiarin.
"No one knows how long this river is, and they don't know where it will go around, so it's better to go straight there. β
"But this river is cold, swim over?" Mu Han asked, and then laughed a little mockingly, "Even if you swim over, when you get ashore, what's the use of these soaked clothes? β
Lu Jialin squinted his eyes and thought for a moment.
"I'll carry you over. β
Although Mu Han had missed the temperature on Lu Jiarin's back for a while, she still refused to say it, let alone this kind of idea that sounded fantastical.
I've never heard of swimming with a person on his back, and even if he could, wouldn't it be the same as swimming himself?
Mu Han rejected his proposal very seriously, and seriously asked him to think of a serious way.
Although Lu Jiarin was thinking about it seriously, there was really no better way.
There are no trees or anything like that around here, and you can't even make a simple bamboo raft, but you can do it except swim.
How do you cross this river? In addition to the most basic past, you have to make sure that there are no special circumstances after crossing this river, such as wet clothes and anything.
Mu Han missed the three eagles on the Lock Peak a little, if they were there, the river of this width would not be a problem at all, and they could go back and forth in seconds.
"I'll carry you. Lu Jialin finally said, looking at Mu Han, who was surprised and puzzled, and added another sentence, "I don't have to swim, try to see if I can go over." β
"How can you live without swimming?"
"Run over. Lu Jiarin said, patted his back, and hung his bag in front of him, "Come on." β
Mu Han was very hesitant, she knew that this river was not good, but she just didn't want to go on Lu Jiarin's back anymore, although it would be warmer.
Seeing that she was slow to act, Lu Jialin frowned, as if she remembered something, and said softly: "Miss Mu, don't worry, there are still some guarantees for the character below, and I didn't do anything for a day after carrying you before." β
Mu Han was completely stunned, still surprised for a while that he didn't know what he was talking about, and only reacted after a while.
He, he means he's still afraid that he'll be rude?!
Mu Han was furious, took two steps forward, and jumped on Lu Jiarin's back.
"How are you going to get there?"
When she moved like this, she felt that she couldn't be hypocritical anymore, and at the same time expressed Lu Jialin's protest against her opinion.
But Lu Jiarin didn't think so, naively, he really thought that what he said just now had an effect, which reassured Mu Han, so he shook Mu Han there with both hands after his back tightened, and didn't touch her at all.
Such a wide river, not swimming over but running over, Lu Jiarin's words sounded a little dreamy, but this was a relatively dreamy world, Mu Han's eyes widened and he wanted to see how it would develop next.
Lu Jialin bent down, picked up some stones on the ground, threw them hard into the river, and then moved his body.
It moved very quickly, and even Mu Han, who was a quasi-first perspective, didn't know that he was rushing up.
I saw Lu Jiarin step on a fast stone with one foot, jumped up again in reverse, and jumped a distance after stepping on a fast stone again.
Mu Han's eyes really widened this time, it turned out that there is such a magical thing in qi refining, and this is the realm that Qinggong Water Drifting is talking about, right?
However, there is always a time when the stones run out, for example, now, Lu Jialin fell straight to the center of the river with Mu Han on his back, and there was no room for recovery if he wanted to enter the water.
At this moment, Lu Jialin pulled out the Lianqing Sword and slashed it with a sword, with a bang, water droplets shot out, but his body was a little taller.
This sword split the water, and it actually split some reaction force.
