Wading in the waist-deep icy river water, Leng Yue felt the temperature of the river more and more carefully, when the thought in his heart rose, for a moment he no longer felt the river harsh, and even he began to feel that the river water did not seem to be real, but after walking a few steps in his heart, the real sense of existence appeared again, so Leng Yue hurriedly shook his head to make his messy thoughts disappear.
But the more he wanted to be quiet, the more distracting thoughts in his mind became, and the river water also became cold and piercing with the increase of distractions in Leng Yue's mind, and Leng Yue couldn't help but shiver, which made Wei Yutang can't help but look back at him, and then smiled lightly and looked into the distance with his hands behind his back, while Qi Wenwu looked at Leng Yue and sneered and turned his head to look away.
At this time, Leng Yue stepped into the air, and the whole person was immersed in the water, and the cold and biting river water poured in from his mouth and nose, making Leng Yue's mind blank for a while, and the distracting thoughts in his mind disappeared in an instant.
The river is very wide, the deeper the river becomes to the center, and the water flow becomes more and more turbulent, at this time Leng Yue and others can only grab the raft and push the raft across the river, Wei Yutang has no time to watch the excitement at this time, although he doesn't care about the life and death of Leng Yue and others, but time waits for no one, and he must cross the river at the fastest speed, so he and Qi Wenwu struggled to shake the oars, and the speed of the raft became faster in an instant.
At the same time, the other participants in the trial also used their own means, or held wooden blocks, or built a bamboo raft, or jumped directly into the river to swim over, but most of them only thought about how to cross this big river, but few people thought about the truth of this river world like Leng Yue.
"Alas, Engong is here, hurry up, hurry up, please inside, I'm shabby here, and I hope Engong doesn't mind. A small man who looked honest and about thirty years old knelt down to Li Feihong.
"Xiao Qi, what are you doing, hurry up, our family of three is passing by here to see you, how is your family lately?" Li Feihong said as he picked up Xiao Qi.
"Okay, Engong, since you are here, you must stay with me for two more days......" Xiao Qi said and invited Li Feihong's family into the house to chatter.
Xiao Qi originally did a little business in the city, and his life was okay, but then he was set up to owe a large amount of gambling debts, not only he was almost killed, but even his wife and children were almost sold.
Li Feihong walked into the house and took a look, but saw that Xiao Qi's room was very dilapidated, and his wife and children were wearing tattered clothes and hid in the back room and did not dare to come out, but they smiled at Li Feihong's family very timidly, but was immediately glared back by Xiao Qi.
"Okay, then I'll stay here for a day, I didn't come with anything, I'll take this one to buy some food for the children. Saying that, Li Feihong threw Xiao Qi a silver ingot weighing ten taels.
"Engong, how can this be done. Although Xiao Qi said so, he held the ingots and refused to let go, looking like a miser.
Li Feihong smiled and didn't mind, and asked Xiao Qi to buy some wine and food to drink a few glasses together in the evening, how could Xiao Qi refuse, and hurriedly pulled his seven-year-old eldest son from the house and asked him to go for a run, while he accompanied Li Feihong to talk about family life.
Leng Yue was lying on a big stone panting, and the rest of the people were also tired and half-dead, three of them had black lips, obviously not lightly frozen, Leng Yue looked no different from these people from the outside, but he still had enough spare strength, but he didn't want Wei Yutang to see his own details, although the river was wide, but with Leng Yue's physical strength, he could still cope with it.
Especially now that he can control his own psychology, others are frozen half to death, but Leng Yue has nothing to do, but when he is about to cross the river, he deliberately makes himself feel the cold breath, so that Wei Yutang can't find anything.
"Rest half a pillar of incense, civil and military, signaling. Wei Yutang sat down after saying that, with a look of inviolability, he and Qi Wenwu were very relaxed, and they didn't even have a little water on their bodies, as for the others, they didn't dare to be angry now, this prince not only has a noble status, but also has extraordinary martial arts, among these people, I am afraid that except for Leng Yue, who can resist one or two, no one can live three moves under him.
At this moment, there was a loud spark in the sky again, and after a while, I saw a spark also rising in the air about ten miles away.
"Let's go, go and meet up with Little Ruizi. Saying that, Wei Yutang ignored the others, and rushed forward with a step, Leng Yue and the others were slandered, but they could only follow quickly.
"Your Highness, I am too far away from Your Highness to arrive in half an hour, so I took it upon myself to cross the river first, and then approach Your Highness downstream, Your Highness doesn't blame Xiao Rui, right?" Yang Rui said with a very good mouth, and instantly explained the cause and effect of the incident.
"Haha...... What are we talking about between our brothers, you kid is a little clever, and you are close to me while crossing the river. Wei Yutang gave a thumbs up and praised, and then said coldly: "There are only three people around you, so the rest of them are planning to be disobedient, hmph, they have the ability to become disciples of the Taixu Sect, otherwise they will make you regret it for the rest of your life." ”
Wei Yutang's words were clearly warning Leng Yue and the others, but he turned around and said: "You are very good, loyal, no matter what the result of this time, I will truthfully report to my father and the emperor, and then reward according to the merits, okay, now let's go, time is not much for us." ”
Saying that, Wei Yutang designated Leng Yue to take the lead with five people to take the lead and walk into the dense forest, until the six people were about twenty zhang away from him, he and Qi Wenwu, Yang Rui and others followed, as for the others, they accompanied the three of them on the left and right sides of ten zhang to be guarded, everything was carried out according to the training of the palace.
"Your Highness, Leng Yue, this guy is simple, and he also has a lot of brute strength, if possible, bring him with him, when we get to Taixumen, we still need a few thugs, we can't do everything ourselves." Yang Rui glanced at Leng Yue in front of him and said in a low voice.
Wei Yutang nodded and said with a smile: "Leng Yue, this kid is honest on the outside, but I always feel that this kid has a tight head, and letting him take the lead is also a test of his loyalty. ”
The three of them muttered for a while, and put forward the list of their favorite subordinates, they each designated two people, Leng Yue was among them, these six people were the last victims of Wei Yutang, and the three of them would not sacrifice them unless they had to, as for them, they were the existence of stepping stones.
From a distance, this forest does not seem to be big, but as soon as you enter it, the tall trees will obscure the sky, and the originally dim sky will suddenly become like evening here, and the forest is surprisingly quiet, which makes Leng Yue's heart beat a drum and want to walk slowly, but time waits for no one, so he doesn't dare to slow down.
Just here, there was a sudden cry of crows in the air, Leng Yue looked up, and couldn't help but feel a little numb, only to see hundreds of crows perched on top of the tall trees in front of him, these crows' eyes were red, and there were flames in their nostrils.
At this moment, a half-zhang size crow monster flew in the air with a scream, and when he opened his mouth, he spewed out a bloodlet flame, and he came towards Leng Yue and the others as a hood, Leng Yue and the others had never seen this kind of scene, and they were immediately frightened and ran away, and immediately a miserable scream came, and the backs of the six people, including Leng Yue, were on fire.
"Fake, fake, this is fake. Leng Yue chattered in his heart, and sure enough, the originally hot back suddenly became warm, Leng Yue was ecstatic in his heart, he finally found the secret method through this forest, but now is not the time to leave alone.
"Your Highness, run, there are monsters. Leng Yue shouted and ran towards Wei Yutang and the others, and the big fire crow followed, seeing that Leng Yue actually attracted such a monster, Wei Yutang wanted to slap him to death, but he didn't have the heart to do it immediately, because the fire crow was followed by hundreds of fire crows of different sizes rushing towards them densely.
Under Xiao Qi's frequent persuasion, Li Feihong was a little dizzy drunk, and Li Wei also drank two glasses, Yi Ai didn't allow him to drink, but when he thought of Li Wei's performance these days, Yi Ai felt that Li Wei was already an adult, and it was time to learn to drink, so he didn't stop it, but he was not allowed to drink more, and after three cups, Li Wei was also a little dizzy at this time.
After several days of hard work and exhaustion, Li Feihong was a little drunk at this time, and with the help of Yi Ai, a family of three entered the room to rest, and Xiao Qi's family also returned to their own room, blowing out the oil lamp, and suddenly the whole house was quiet and scary.
Xiao Qi's home is located in a mountain village, and there are only a few families around, in the dead of night, in addition to a few dog barks, it is the screaming of ghost birds, which makes Yi Ai worry for no reason, especially when he sees that Li Feihong has fallen asleep and Yi Wei can't break his eyelids, this sense of anxiety is even stronger.
But soon Yi Ai felt that she was too worried, she fell to the ground and listened, Xiao Qi's family had already slept, and there was no movement outside, she couldn't help but let go of her heart, and the drowsiness naturally hit, just as Yi Ying was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard someone gently pushing the door, Yi Ying was startled, and immediately pulled out a dagger and touched it in front of the door.
