Chapter 280
Fawkes and Li Qing glanced at each other, and they both felt that this was a good idea, after all, Li Qing had lost all his memories and didn't know how to go to Tianjing City at all, and although Fawkes went south and north, it was only limited to the Sonam Empire, and he was not very familiar with the Dajie Empire.
Now that someone leads the way, it is naturally better, so why not?
After talking, Li Qing knew that the Lingfeng mercenary group had a good relationship with those merchants, and often took their tasks to escort goods, and they were also very familiar with the journey between the two places.
And the beautiful middle-aged woman is Lyman's wife Sha Lucy, and the other young woman is Lucy's little sister Shalina, both of whom are fighters who cultivate fighting spirit, and their strength is also passable.
This time, for the escort mission, Shalina also repeatedly asked to take her to participate in this mercenary mission, she is beautiful and beautiful, naturally pursued by many people, and the people in the mercenary group let her everywhere, and he himself is also very visionary, and he doesn't care about idle people, but his heart is kind, and he is not arrogant and willful.
But because she is beautiful, and she is the sister of the captain's wife, she has a good relationship with everyone, and she gets along, so naturally everyone lets her most of the time, making her think that no one can beat her except for her brother-in-law.
Lyman then stood up and said in a loud voice: "Everyone, these two are Fawkes and Skyfall, they are also going to Tianjing City to find someone, they will walk with us, everyone welcomes the two of them to join!"
The other mercenaries around the campfire were all bold men, and immediately shouted loudly and applauded warmly, and the atmosphere suddenly rose to such an uplift, and even the three merchants laughed.
And Li Qing, who was sitting next to the bonfire, had a calm face, and did not show any excitement, but Fox laughed and looked happy.
Shalina, who was sitting opposite Li Qing, had a strange expression, secretly looking at Li Qing, you know, Shalina has always been held in the palm of her hand, and the men who have seen her are all fascinated by her.
But the handsome and indifferent young man just now turned a blind eye to her, as if he were not a graceful and beautiful woman in front of him, but an inconspicuous stone.
Sarina couldn't help but feel strange in her heart, and there was a feeling of hatred in her heart, longing for this handsome man to fall under his pomegranate skirt.
Seeing her sister looking so strange, Sha Luxi couldn't help but secretly pay attention to her heart, seeing that she had been quietly paying attention to Li Qing opposite, she naturally understood what she meant.
Fox is hearty and bold by nature, and has a very good appetite for these mercenaries, and quickly mingles with them, while on the contrary, Li Qing is very indifferent, and does not speak much, and has been sitting quietly on the side.
The bonfire slowly went out, and everyone went back to the camp to rest, only eight or nine mercenaries took turns keeping vigil, while Li Qing and Fawkes refused Leyman's invitation and spent the night outside.
Lyman was originally worried that the two of them would not be able to bear it if they spent the night outside on such a cold day, but the two of them insisted again and again, so it was naturally difficult to force it.
The strength of Li Qing and Fox is not afraid of the wind and snow outside at all, besides, the tent of the Lingfeng Mercenary Group cannot accommodate the two of them, they will inevitably let others come out if they live in it, and the two of them are naturally unwilling to do this.
So Fox was running his fighting qi, protecting his body, putting on a cloak, and resting against the stones, while Li Qing closed his eyes and lowered his eyebrows, sitting cross-legged on the snow, and the fairy qi did not need to operate, forming an arc in his body to isolate the wind and snow.
The sparse snowflakes fell for a night, and when the morning came, the surroundings were covered with a thick layer of snow, covered in silver makeup, and a scene of northern scenery.
Those mercenaries who kept vigil saw the appearance of the two of them, and they were also very surprised, only to feel that Li Qing was full of mystery, it seems that magic is indeed magical, and it can be like this when they spend the night outside.
Of course, they didn't know that this was because of Li Qing's immortal qi protection, and those simple magic couldn't be compared at all.
All the mercenaries also came out of the tent, and Lyman saw that Li Qing and Fawkes were already standing there waiting early, without the slightest hint of cold.
What surprised Lyman even more was that according to the description of the brothers who kept vigil, Li Qing actually sat there all the time, not moving at all, and the wind and snow were isolated around him, it seems that this Li Qing's magic is not weak.
At the very least, Lyman thought that Li Qing was using magic.
Under the leadership of their leader, the Ling Feng mercenary group was well-trained to organize everything and load all the luggage into the carriage, and everyone began to embark on the journey.
After talking to Lyman, the group needs to climb over snow-capped mountains, through endless glacial plains, and then travel to the border and enter the Dajie Empire.
Along the way, the wind and snow were weak and sometimes strong, covering everyone's eyes, but fortunately, Lehmann and the others knew this road well, and they had walked no less than a hundred times, without the slightest trace of disorientation.
After two days and two nights of wind and snow, it gradually weakened, and the bright sun shone on the snow, reflecting the light, almost merging the heaven and the earth.
Shalina had been secretly watching Li Qing in the wind and snow, and found that Li Qing did not show any fear, cold meaning, it seemed that the surrounding wind and snow had no effect on him at all.
The more she looks at Li Qing, she has an inexplicable temperament, melancholy eyes, indifferent expression, and handsome face, which makes her heart unable to calm down at all, and everything is attracting this girl who is just starting to fall in love.
However, Li Qing, who had an indifferent face, didn't even look at him from the corner of his eye, and simply ignored him, which made Shalina secretly annoyed in her heart.
At this time, everyone has reached the foot of the snow-capped mountain, and the winding mountain road spirals up the mountain, but the road is also covered with snow, which is very dangerous, and one is afraid of falling off the cliff if he is not careful.
Lyman said loudly: "Everyone be careful, cheer up, the mountain road is difficult, don't be careless!"
All the mercenaries immediately responded in unison: "Yes! Regiment Commander!" Everyone is an experienced mercenary, so they naturally know the danger, and the three merchants are also old horses, so there is no need to remind them.
Then, Lyman deliberately walked to Li Qing and Fox's side, and deliberately advised: "Both, the mountain road ahead is very dangerous, the ground is wet and slippery, be careful!"
Fox and Li Qing immediately said: "Thank you for the reminder from the head of the regiment, we will naturally be careful!"
Seeing that the two of them looked so confident, Lyman was also a lot more relieved, so he told them to follow the army carefully, and after that, Lyman walked at the front of the team and led the whole team forward.
Tired horses pull goods full of herbs, and the slow and difficult march through the mountain trail is thrilling.
Everyone wore special snow shoes, which could firmly grasp the ground and not slip in the snow, and the wind and snow had stopped, so everyone had a much easier trip.
The mercenary group escorted the entire caravan forward with difficulty, and Lyman shouted: "Everyone hurry up, you must rush to the valley sheltered from the wind and snow before dark!"
In the whole team, Li Qing was the one who looked relaxed, everyone was in a hurry, and they didn't pay attention to the place where Li Qing walked after watching it, there were no footprints at all, unlike the traces of other people's walks are very obvious.
Li Qing was completely floating, moving forward against the ground, and the magician's robe covered Li Qing's lower body, and he couldn't see his footsteps moving at all.
Everyone was already experienced, and although it seemed that the path on the mountainside was dangerous and terrifying, there was no accident and they arrived at their destination, a valley in the middle of the snow-capped mountains.
The valley is just within a crevice, and the towering peaks on both sides are just enough to keep the wind and snow at bay, so staying in this valley is the safest and natural haven.
After a day of arduous trekking, everyone was also exhausted, and after setting up the tent for resting, everyone had a hasty dinner and then went into the tent to rest.
And Lyman, Sha Lucy, and Shalina were all very surprised by Li Qing, you know, as a magician, the body is very weak, and it can't be compared with Dou Tu at all, such a hard trip, Li Qing actually persevered, and he didn't seem to be tired at all. Could it be that this handsome magician Li Qing is a dual cultivator of magic and martial arts, which is really uncomfortable.
And that Fox still said in the past, looking at his dress and weapons, as well as the slightest respite along the way, it seems that the cultivation of Dou Qi is also very profound, definitely not worse than Lyman, and even a little higher.
It was not easy for Lyman to ask Li Qing, so he had to keep it in his heart, after all, this was someone else's own secret. Everyone rested early for tomorrow's journey, and in this snowy place, the vigilance was naturally relaxed, and there was no need to keep the business, besides, what they escorted was not the goods that the robbers wanted. Moreover, Lyman has walked this road a hundred times, and has never encountered a thief, and no bandit wants to come to this place where birds don't poop to rob.
After resting tonight, everyone only needs one more day to walk out of this snow-capped mountain, and then there will be endless glaciers and snow.
This time, Lyman deliberately set up an extra tent for Li Qing and Fox to rest, after all, it was really unreasonable to let the family rest outside all the time. Li Qing and Fox were also disrespectful, no longer saying anything pretentious, just saying thank you, and resting in the tent.
Shalina also wanted to get along and talk to Li Qing in her heart, but because of the girl's reserve and shyness, she didn't dare to take the initiative to talk to Li Qing, so she could only hold back her words in her heart.
Nature is really magical, in the cold snow-capped mountains to create such a strange place, the wind and snow can not invade, and there is no sound of cold wind whistling, like a natural barrier, isolating everything.
The quiet night passed, everyone rested for the night, and they were almost recovered, and the horses were refreshed, pulling the goods, ready to cross the snowy mountains. The loud sound of eagles pierced the sky, echoing on the top of the snow-capped mountains, and when I looked up, I saw two blood-red giant eagles hovering in the blue sky.
Lyman looked up at the blood-colored giant eagle in the sky and said to Li Qing: "This snow eagle is the air overlord of the snow field, and most of the demonic beasts on the snow are their food!"
Li Qing looked at it, the snow eagle was huge, its wings spread almost ten zhang, and its sharp eagle eyes looked down on the earth, and all the creatures moving on the ground could not escape its eyes.
The heavenly fire on Li Qing's shoulders was lying listlessly, and he didn't have the energy to take care of the clown-level beasts in the sky at all, and the only ones who could be on an equal footing with him were the phoenix, the green dragon and other ancient divine beasts.
Li Qing nodded and said, "This snow eagle is indeed very large, and the power of its claws can break stones and gold!"
Fox next to him smiled and said, "Won't this eagle attack you?"
Lyman shook his head and said, "This snow eagle has never attacked humans, their favorite food is the snow monster, basically no land monster can escape its pursuit!"
Fawkes asked in surprise: "So powerful, I can't imagine that there are such powerful magical beasts here!"
Lyman said: "Of course it is powerful, this Snow Eagle is an A-level magical beast, powerful, they can also manipulate the power of thunder and lightning, and they can send thunder and lightning from their mouths to deal with the enemy." ”
When Li Qing and Fawkes heard this, Li Qing didn't have anything, and Fawkes was amazed, A-level demonic beasts are extremely powerful, they are basically difficult to be captured, even if a silver fighter fights against an A-level demonic beast, it can't be said that he will definitely win.
Fox also had a little palpitations in his heart, in case, this snow eagle flew down to attack them, on this steep snow-capped mountain, I am afraid everyone would be finished.
Fawkes asked, "Brother Lyman, is it true that this monster will not attack?"
Seeing Fox like this, Lyman smiled and said: "Don't worry, when I was lucky for the first time, I was also afraid, for fear that this snow eagle would fly down and attack us, but such a thing has never happened, I was relieved when I came out, so I have been lucky!"
Seeing Lyman's confident appearance, Fox relieved himself and said, "I'm relieved!"
Walking on the rugged ice and snow mountain road, slowly to the way down the mountain, obviously, the line down the mountain is more difficult than going up the mountain, one is not careful, even people with cars will fall off the cliff from the mountain road, but everyone did not have anything to do, smoothly down the mountain.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, everyone couldn't help but breathe a long breath, the most difficult part of the journey had passed, and the rest of the road would be smooth, and there would be no danger at all.
Li Qing looked up at the sky, and saw that the snow eagles that had been following them on the road all screamed and flew away.
Li Qing looked at Lyman suspiciously, and said, "This snow eagle seems to be following us all the way!"
Before Lyman could answer, Salin, who was riding up on horseback next to him, interjected and said, "My brother-in-law said that this snow eagle will follow us like this every time, as if it is spying on us, as soon as we get out of the snowy mountain, they will leave immediately!"
Li Qing smiled slightly at Shalina and said, "It seems that this snow eagle seems to be patrolling their territory!"
Although Li Qing only smiled faintly at her, it made Shalina indulge in his charm for a moment, and the unique dusty and elegant temperament of the immortals on Li Qing's body did not belong to mortals at all, of course, she could not resist.
Fortunately, Li Qing has now lost his memory, and he automatically reined in his immortal qi, which is much better, if it is all exuded, the invincible practitioner hand fight is not something that mortals can resist at all.
Lyman said: "Yes, I think so, these snow eagles are very concerned about their territory, if they show a bad move, I am afraid they will launch a fierce attack!"
Li Qing said lightly: "Perhaps, they just came out to protect themselves!"
Lyman also said: "It is also said that they live freely in this vast glacier and snow-capped mountains, and they will not harass us at all, only us humans will harass them!"
Salina next to her said in a coquettish voice: "Okay, brother-in-law, don't be emotional!
Lyman shook his head helplessly, smiled at Li Qing, said that he had nothing to do with this little sister-in-law, and said: "Brother from the sky, Brother Fox, let's hurry up, as long as we get out of this snowfield, the rest of the road will be easy!"
Fawkes let out a breath of white air and said loudly, "Then let's hurry up, this weather is really unbearable!"
Lyman looked back at his brothers behind him, all of whom had hidden themselves in thick padded jackets to protect themselves from the howling and icy wind and snow, revealing only a pair of eyes and a breathing nose. It can be said that it is really like a knife in the wind and snow, blowing on the face, stinging incomparably, not to mention that the two women and the three businessmen can't stand it, even these men with zinc, zinc, zinc and iron bones gritted their teeth and insisted.
Lyman said loudly: "Everyone speed up the process and get out of this snow field as soon as possible!"
So, under the leadership of Lyman, everyone walked in the wind and snow, and as far as the eye could see, there was only a silver-white piece, and there was no other color at all, and at this time, human beings could feel the infinite power of nature.
Human beings are so weak and pale in front of nature, except for Li Qing, of course.
On the first day, everyone moved slowly in the wind and snow, although it was slow, but it was much faster than when they walked the mountain road.
The cart with the goods had also taken off its wheels, changed to skateboards, and was pulled by horses on the snow, which was much lighter.
The sky was beautiful, and at the beginning of the second day, the original violent wind and snow disappeared, the wind and the sun were beautiful, everything was very calm, and everyone's mood was much better.
From time to time, you can also see all kinds of strange monsters in the snow, there are giant bears covered with white fluff all over their bodies with their babies leisurely foraging in the snow, although it looks fierce, it is actually a gentle monster, even if you are close to touch it, it doesn't matter.
There are flocks of snow ducks advancing in the snow, chubby, like ordinary ducks, the only difference is that the body is not feathers but fluff, shaking and shaking, looking very cute.
While walking through the snow, Lyman said to Li Qing: "Brother, it seems that if we continue like this, we will be able to pass through the glacier and snow in less than seven days! I haven't seen such good weather for a long time!"
Li Qing smiled slightly and said, "This may be an eye-opener!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but smile knowingly, and they were all very happy, and they marched forward during the day and rested at night, and walked like this for four days. Moreover, the night view of the glacier and snow is also wonderful and moving, showing the magic of nature, every night, there is a faint blue light in the sky, slowly turning into colorful light, flickering, the end is very charming. This is the unique scenery on this glacier snow, the glacier aurora.
On the fifth day, however, there was a little circumstance, and at noon, when everyone was about to stop, rest, and eat again, and then set out on the road, but unexpectedly there was a loud cry of an eagle in the sky, echoing in the vast snow.
After everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, and everyone heard the sound of the eagle's cry, which was the clear sound of the snow eagle, the overlord of the sky.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder why this snow eagle was so far away from their territory, and when they appeared here, as soon as their thoughts turned, the huge blood-red body of the snow eagle appeared in the sky, hovering endlessly, as if searching for something.
The three businessmen walked up to Lyman, Li Qing, Fox and others, and the fat businessman named Mattoni who took the lead asked uneasily, "This snow eagle will appear here, will there be nothing wrong?"
Lyman also showed some uneasiness at this time, and said worriedly: "There shouldn't be any problem, we didn't provoke these snow eagles, it shouldn't be bad for us!"
At this time, I only heard Shalina's coquettish voice shouting, "Look, what is that?"
Everyone followed the direction of Sarina's finger and looked intently, only to see a little silver flash appear on the white snow, blending into the snow, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it clearly.
Everyone couldn't see what that silver light was, only Li Qing could see it very clearly, it was a silver-white fox, and the speed of movement was really amazing, and Fox and the others couldn't see it clearly at all-
The snow eagle in the sky also seemed to move, and its sword-like eagle eyes stared at the silver light that moved like lightning on the snow, and it seemed that the silver fox on the ground was its target.
And the silver fox is also very cunning, and its flying route is unpredictable, sometimes running in a zigzag pattern, sometimes sparing circles, sometimes burrowing into the snow, and sometimes appearing in another snowfield.
As soon as the huge snow eagle retracted its wings, it swooped down violently, like a sharp arrow, and rushed straight towards the silver fox on the snow, and when it approached the ground, a layer of giant wings slid across the ground.
Unexpectedly, the silver fox was also very cunning, with a sharp turn, a sharp stop, and turned back to escape, the snow eagle actually pounced in the air, and had to fly up again.
