Chapter 45: The Snow Melts
Walking all the way to the north, Lin Que had no destination, he planned to travel in the rivers and lakes temporarily, while inquiring about his sister's news, while looking for heavenly treasures to repair his soul for Tian'er.
Mochizuki Castle.
Lin Que looked up and saw these three big characters printed on a new city gate. He was going to rest in the city.
Inside the city. This city is finally out of the category of a military city, and completely belongs to a town where ordinary people live.
Entering the city gate, you can see the uneven bungalows, government mansions, houses, hotels, green buildings, etc. in the distance, the streets are also very lively, the small traders are shouting and buying, and the children are running around in flower clothes, and the scene in this city is also several times more lively than the fishing village and Xiangfeng City where Lin was lacking before.
After walking a few steps, Lin Que occasionally found a few people dressed in strange costumes who seemed to be from other places on the road. Most of the people in the city were wearing thick brocade and velvet clothes, and the color of their clothes was blue and white, and the few people Lin Que noticed were either Taoists wearing bright yellow Taoist robes, or young women in scantily clad clothes who still showed their thighs even in such cold weather as the Wind and Snow Country, or they were dressed in black like Lin Que, which was difficult to approach. Still others carry weapons directly on their backs.
Of course, the masters here are only compared to ordinary people, although Lin Que can't tell whether they are immortal cultivators or not, but the light and healthy pace and long breathing all show that they have a certain strength.
How could so many masters suddenly emerge from this ordinary town? Lin Que didn't quite understand.
Noon.
Lin Que came to a tavern.
"Xiao Er, come a pound of sauced beef, two plates of side dishes, and a pot of tea!" Lin Que was still not very good at drinking when he was alone, so he only needed a pot of tea.
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!"
The shopkeeper listened to Lin Que's instructions and hurried over to prepare.
Lin Que found a table by the window and sat down. It didn't take long for the shopkeeper to come over with the dishes.
"Guest officer, your dishes are ready!" said Xiao Er, who put two dishes of side dishes, sauced beef, etc. on the table.
"Well, by the way, I have something to ask you. β
"Guest officer, just ask, I know everything about Mochizuki City!" said the shopkeeper patting his chest.
"Are there a lot of outsiders in this city recently?" Lin Que asked tentatively.
"Yo, guest officer, you don't know yet, it's not a foreigner, those are all people from the sect, or some big names from martial arts families!"
"Oh, why did these big men come to this lookout city?"
Lin Que just finished asking again, and the shopkeeper looked at Lin Que like a fool, but then patiently explained: "The guest officer doesn't know something, I don't know if the guest officer has noticed that the climate of my country has changed recently?"
"The climate seems to be getting warmer?" Lin Que frowned and thought, after he came out, he also found that the weather with less snow was falling and the intensity was much weaker.
"That's right! It is said that the snowfields in the north of our snowy country are melting!!"
"What? How is it possible?! The northern snowfields are vast, how can you say that they melt when they melt?" Lin Que exclaimed.
"It's not, but this snowfield is really gradually melting, and according to legend, after the snowfield melts, there will be strange treasures, and these big people are all coming to our snow country for this reason. Speaking of this, the shopkeeper hurriedly lowered his voice and said mysteriously.
"I see. Lin Que nodded, he completely believed what the shopkeeper said, after all, he had already explored the snow field when he was still in Xiangfeng City four years ago, and the mansion of one of the seventy-two hall masters under the Ice and Snow Emperor's throne alone had the Ice Pole Spirit Fruit that the imperial court wanted, if the entire snow field melted, there would inevitably be more heavenly and earthly treasures born, and it was not surprising that people with big horses rushed to get a piece of the pie.
After all, now these treasures have become ownerless things, and they are left by the peerless powerhouse Ice and Snow Emperor before his death, so they naturally have a great attraction to these immortal cultivators and martial artists!
With that, Lin Que hurriedly ate lunch and came to the street, he looked at the north, his eyes flashed.
"What, you want to go to the snow and get a kick in it?" asked Tian'er.
"Of course, if there is a treasure born, how can you not go and take a look? Maybe you can catch a few!" Lin Que said as he smirked, as if some divine weapon and natural treasure had already arrived.
"Hmph, you are not only bad, but also very greedy, be careful of being plotted by others, you know, if you go to grab the treasure, you must fight with people, after all, there are so few treasures, and there are so many people. β
"Of course I do. Although Lin Que said this, what he thought in his heart was something else.
Since there are treasures born, it may not be that there are no treasures that are useful for repairing the soul! If it weren't for the sake of Tian'er, Lin Que would not have dared to fight with others. The treasure is good, but it is not worth it if you lose your life for it.
Lin Que groaned slightly: "Before leaving, I still have to do some preparations!"
"Preparations?what?"
"You just look at it. Lin Que smiled and sold a pass.
Then he walked into a grocery store.
"Boss, do you have any masks for sale here?" Lin Que asked the middle-aged uncle sitting on the stool as he entered the door.
"Masks, there are any kinds of masks!" said the boss as he took out a variety of masks from the back room. The masks are mostly made of metal, and the smiling face, crying face, grimace, and bitter face appear vivid.
"Hmm...... That's it. Lin Que picked up a cyan grimace mask, the mask was blue-black, and the hideous fangs were exposed, after Lin Que put it on, and then matched it with his black cloak, it was quite a bit bluffing.
After buying the mask, Lin Que prepared to head to Xiangfeng City first, and after preparing dry food, he set out on the journey.
On the go.
"Ahh
"Hmph, naΓ―ve! Only children can be scared by you!" Tian'er said involuntarily. In fact, Lin Que's sudden strange scream still startled her
"What the hell are you wearing a mask for?"
"Hey, I don't want to either, the vendetta of the rivers and lakes......" Lin Que smiled bitterly.
Tian'er knew in his heart that when he went to the snow field this time, it was very likely that he would meet Yangchun Sect, and it was difficult to guarantee that no one would recognize Lin Que at that time, so it was still necessary to make a disguise.
"In that case, you might as well change your voice as well. Tian'er proposed.
"Oh, how does the voice change?"
"Vitality! Are you only going to fight with vitality! stupid to death!"
"Oh oh!" Lin Que reacted at this time, lifted his vitality, and slightly changed the position of his voice.
"How about now?" a loud duck's voice came from Lin Que's mouth.
"Like a duck!hahahaha. β
Lin Que was full of black lines in his head......
