Chapter 323: The Lake
When I woke up, it was already afternoon, and looking at the sun in the sky, I should have slept for three or four hours, which can be regarded as resting. Hurriedly got up to call Lao Zhi, Lao Zhi still maintained the sitting posture just now, swaying like a tumbler, I screamed a few times and there was no response, sleeping heavier than a dead pig, I can only use the old way again...
After a slap beating, Lao Yu suddenly came to his senses, sat there and looked at me stunned and said, "Where is the ice lotus?"
"What ice lotus?" I looked at Lao Yu with a blank expression and said, "Are you sleeping with Maolen?"
"Didn't we already get the Ice Lotus?"
I was a little skeptical when I was asked so seriously by the old man, whether we really had gotten the ice lotus, so I was busy rummaging on my body, but I didn't have any pockets on my body at all, how could I hold any ice lotus, I hadn't even seen what the ice lotus looked like, I must have been too tired to start talking nonsense.
"Are you dreaming, we haven't gone to Lanzhou Peak yet, when did we get the Ice Lotus!"
When I said this, I seemed to be much more sober, and I squinted my eyes and thought about it before saying, "Dreaming? I just dreamed that the two of us went up to Lanzhou Peak, and I saw the mountain guarding spirit beast Xiaohu, which was a pug, not as high as the bench, I took a steamed bun made by a girl and threw it down the mountain, and the pug rushed down with a fierce son, we waited on the mountain for several days, and the pug didn't come back, and then we took the ice lotus and planned to leave, but... But just about to leave, I suddenly saw the old lady and the girl in Zizhou again, and the old lady of Zizhou said that she would not tell you how to leave Yingzhou when she got the ice lotus, so that the two of us died in Yingzhou. As soon as I heard it, I was about to make a move, but when I turned around and saw you riding that pug, with a kitchen knife in your hand, I rushed to the old lady of Zizhou, and shouted in my mouth... What the hell are you going to do, Yahi, why are you a little Japanese?"
I listened to the black line on my face, I always dreamed that I could do a skewer, and I dreamed that I was riding a pug with a kitchen knife in my hand, how is this scene a bit like Pan Changjiang in "Raise Your Hand", but Pan Changjiang is riding a pig, and the pig can at least ride, so how can the pug ride?
I helplessly glanced at the old man who was still recalling the dream and said: "Okay, okay, stop daydreaming, hurry up, think about it for a while, it's dark!"
"Ahh Let's go!" Lao Yu seemed to be a little unsatisfied, and even asked me: "Hey Nangong, do you think this pug can really ride? I see that you ride quite slippery in your dreams!"
"Fuck your uncle, I can ride you, the pug is more compatible with you!"
It took less than a day to follow the spring water flowing down from the Lanzhou Peak, and then we came to the top of the mountain close to the Lanzhou Peak, standing on the cliff and looking down, the clouds and mist were swirling, and the ice was cold when we looked up, and I and Lao Yu couldn't help but stop, why did the temperature get lower and lower? It may be the reason for the night? No, when I was in Huangzhou Peak and Oasis Peak, I had never been so cold at night, and besides, Lao Yu and I were both human spiritual monks, and our bodies were surrounded and protected by true qi, keeping out the cold and heat, but how could we immediately approach the peak of Lanzhou Peak but it was getting colder and colder?
Lao Yu was also a little puzzled, tightened his clothes, and looked around with a big mouth: "Are we in the wrong place, this uncle is too cold." As he spoke, he didn't forget to wipe his nose.
I held my chin in my hand and looked around again, thought for a while and said to Lao Qi: "It shouldn't be wrong, we found it along the spring, and it stands to reason that the ice lotus should grow in the source of the spring." And I also feel that the vitality is much heavier than the mountain, according to the previous experience in Oasis Peak and Huangzhou Peak, it should not be wrong. ”
"Ice Lotus... Ice Lotus..."The old man squatted on the ground and kept repeating the Ice Lotus, and then suddenly, as if he had been struck by electricity, the vine stood up and said to me, "Yes, Ice Lotus! Shouldn't Ice Lotus grow in places with ice? Ice Lotus should be around here!"
I pondered for a moment, thinking about what I always said, it makes sense, the ice lotus should grow in a cold place, is the peak of Lanzhou Peak a glacier? How can Yingzhou have such a place, it's incredible, then the Chizhou Summit won't be the Flame Mountain, it shouldn't be, the Flame Mountain is the territory of the Bull Demon King and the Iron Fan Princess, how can they be in Yingzhou, it's too!
Although these are my and Lao to give a guess, but the guess should be good, but the temperature around is really a little low, can not continue to go up, anyway, has come to the top of the mountain, has saved a lot of time, or rest for a night, tomorrow to find the lake to fight wits and courage, if there is not a good spirit I am afraid to suffer, so I and Lao to plan to rest for a night, tomorrow early to get up and then go to find the ice lotus.
I didn't say anything all night, and the next day the sun rose, I was woken up by the first rays of sunlight in the morning, stretched lazily, kicked the old man who was sleeping well, and simply ate something and went straight to the peak.
What the old man said was really good, the peak of Lanzhou Peak was really a world of ice, but it didn't seal the gurgling spring. At this time, the surrounding air had plummeted to below zero, and the vitality was much thicker than in other places, so it could be concluded that the Ice Lotus was nearby.
After I said a few words to Lao Zhi, I was about to go to find the ice lotus together, and I was just about to step out of the area of blue vegetation, when suddenly a figure flashed in the sky, and Lao Zhi and I reflexively lowered our bodies, prostrate behind the bushes and looked in the direction where the shadow fell.
That figure, in a flash, fell on the place where the spring water flowed, and then it became clear what the person who came was, he must be the mountain guarding spirit beast of Lanzhou Peak.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Classic of the West Mountains" records: "There are beasts in the mountain of Kuan, its shape is a horse body and bird wings, a human face and a snake tail, it is a good person, and the name is the lake."
It is easier to understand, that is, the horse body of the lake has bird wings, and the human face and snake tail. But the lake in front of him is obviously slightly different from the one recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, with blue hair and a naked body, muscular and strong, and the lower body is the body of a horse, with a pair of bird wings on its back, and its body is ice blue, and there is no snake tail as recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". This lake should not be the lake in ancient times, Jiang Lao also said that the six mountain-guarding spirit beasts in Yingzhou are all descendants, not purebred.
I saw a proud and confident look on his face, suddenly raised his head, raised his hands above his head, and the spring water under him suddenly gushed out, all sprinkled on the face, body, and wings of the lake, and the lake was wide open, and then the spring water fell, if you don't look at the lower half of his body, a strong man stirred up a splash in the ice and snow, the water splashed on the bare skin, and the water slid down the bulging muscles, maybe it would be a different scene, but looking at the lower body, there was no interest in appreciating the man's toned muscles. 10
