There are cliffs and jagged rocks.
The more Yan Qi climbed up, the more dangerous it became.
very cold!
Frozen to the bone!
Fortunately, the tiger head didn't climb up with him.
Otherwise, he could freeze into a popsicle.
Six thousand meters above sea level.
Breathing is very difficult.
Yan Qi also felt uncomfortable.
He took out an air bottle and took a few deep breaths.
This is a sealed gas cylinder developed by the Academy of Sciences.
Can hold a lot of air.
At critical moments, it can exert unusual power.
Yan Qi took a few deep breaths like a baby and felt much more relaxed.
The north wind howls.
He carried the Wushan Yunyu Sutra to resist the severe cold.
At the same time, regulate the inner breath and reduce physical energy to a minimum.
Further up, it is even more difficult.
Wushan Yunyu has been used for a long time, and Yan Qi's eyes are comparable to those of an eagle.
Extremely easy to use.
You can see clearly even from very far away.
first.
He wanted to determine whether there were any traces of humans in this place.
This requires looking for traces.
The most striking feature is the footprints.
Yan Qi walked for more than an hour at an altitude of more than 6,000 meters, carefully searching for traces.
finally!
Footprints were found on a flat piece of white snow.
"Haha, there are really footprints."
Yan Qi was so excited that she rushed over to see what was going on.
"They are human footprints!"
Yan Qida was overjoyed.
If there are human footprints in this place, it is enough to confirm that these footprints belong to Shi Zhongxin. There is no other possibility.
Because such a high place is already considered a fairyland on earth.
No one can get there except gods.
The footprints were clear and not blurred by the cold wind.
It seems that Shi Zhongxin has been to this place.
He followed the steps and looked up.
Almost at the top of the mountain, a snow cave looms.
There is a snow cave hundreds of meters high.
Yan Qi was very excited.
Although he was anxious, he adjusted his breathing and climbed up little by little according to the rhythm of his breathing.
Now, it has reached an altitude of about seven thousand meters.
Breathing becomes harder and harder.
Sure enough, there is an exquisite snow cave.
There is a large open space in front of the snow cave.
It's obviously been artificially processed.
Yan Qi did not approach rashly, but listened carefully for any sounds.
There is no sound.
Yan Qi enters the snow cave.
In the cave, there is a lot of furniture.
It's all made of ice.
Very exquisite.
Yan Qi laughed, is this the ancient art of ice sculpture?
"It seems that Shi Zhongxin must have been here."
But what is this cabin for?
Yan Qi didn't believe that Shi Zhongxin would live here.
This is not a place to live.
Yan Qi took a closer look.
There is an offering table carved in ice.
There are frozen fruits on the offering table.
There is also a jar of wine.
There is also a statue carved on the ice wall.
It is the portrait of Cao Chunqiu.
This is a tribute to Prime Minister Cao.
Shi Zhongxin is indeed a loyal man.
There is a poem on the ice sculpture.
flamboyant.
Good words, good words, really good words.
Yan Qi appreciates Shi Zhongxin's poems.
"
Going south brings chaos,
How difficult it is.
Even though the horse dust is flying,
March without hesitation.
The leaves are falling,
The white hair on the temples was destroyed by it.
Weep bitterly for the injustice of loyal ministers!
The sound of the north wind is sad.
Sighing as I grow,
There are many places in hell.
Bear the pain of separation,
There is still one soul left.
Yan Qi's eyes were a little moist as he read the poem.
This poem, between the lines, reveals how sad Shi Zhongxin was after Cao Chunqiu was wronged.
Moreover, I feel unwilling to do so.
This last sentence was clearly made with revenge in mind.
Yan Qi looked at the poems blankly.
Feeling sad.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of feet flying on the snow outside.
Someone is coming.
Yan Qi hid in a hurry.
A sturdy man in his forties walked in.
Wearing a fox fur coat.
Wearing a bearskin hat.
He took off his hat, revealing a head of gray hair.
Very similar to Shi Zhongxin's portrait.
It's just that he's much older.
Yan Qida was overjoyed.
He planned to secretly move to the entrance of the snow cave and block the way out to prevent Shi Zhongxin from escaping.
As soon as Shi Zhongxin entered the door, he casually shook the snow off his hat.
Outside, heavy snow fell.
Shi Zhongxin walked to the stone table to commemorate Cao Chunqiu.
As soon as he lowered his head, he found a frozen pear running out of the ice tray on the stone table.
"No, there's someone!"
Shi Zhongxin is very cautious.
A leopard can be seen in a tube.
He didn't even think about it and ran away immediately.
Yan Qi was only one step away from blocking the door.
But I didn't expect that Shi Zhongxin would be so careful.
"Shi Zhongxin, don't run."
Yan Qi was very depressed.
The cooked duck actually flew away.
Are you angry or not?
Like an arrow from a string, he rushed out and chased Shi Zhongxin.
Yan Qi thought he would catch up with Shi Zhongxin soon.
However, he was wrong.
Shi Zhongxin's light kung fu is extraordinary, and he can run like flying on a snow-capped mountain 7,000 meters high.
Yan Qi was a little envious.
It seems that Shi Zhongxin has adapted to the plateau environment after living on the plateau for many years.
Altitude sickness has no effect on him.
Yan Qi puts on the air
Ping, using all his strength, using ease, tossing and turning, pursued Shi Zhongxin.
In the heavy snow.
The two figures, more than a hundred meters apart, ran wildly against the cold wind and drifting snow.
When Shi Zhongxin saw that he couldn't get rid of Yan Qi, he turned around and rushed straight to the mountain.
It is now more than seven thousand meters.
If you go higher, it will be extremely cold at high altitudes.
The lack of oxygen will be extremely severe.
The two rushed to higher places, their speed slowing down significantly.
Because oxygen is getting thinner and thinner.
The cold wind gets stronger as it gets colder.
The rocks are rugged and extremely sharp.
Once an accident occurs, it is too late to regret it.
"No, we can't continue chasing."
Yan Qi immediately stopped.
If he continues to chase, not only will he face danger, but Shi Zhongxin may not be able to bear it.
He gave up decisively.
Shi Zhongxin, who was a hundred meters away, turned back and looked at Yan Qi.
Shi Zhongxin was shocked.
Who is this person? His kung fu is so powerful.
Could it be that he is looking for him these days?
Is he here to kill me?
Of course it is!
After all these years, the court still hasn’t let me go?
A bunch of fools!
Prime Minister Cao, I will avenge you sooner or later.
Yan Qi smiled and waved to Shi Zhongxin, then turned and left.
Shi Zhongxin was confused.
This guy just...just left like that?
He did not go back and was very vigilant, watching Yan Qi go down the mountain.
Yan Qi returned to the ice cave.
He decided to outsmart him.
Today, I feel familiar with Shi Zhongxin.
It can be seen from today that Shi Zhongxin is an extremely powerful person.
It can be said that he is both civil and military.
It's just like the legend.
He is a capable minister and general second only to Cao Chunqiu.
The governor of the Western Regions must be him.
Yan Qi looked at Shi Zhongxin's poem in memory of Cao Chunqiu.
Suddenly, I had an idea.
Outside, there was heavy snowfall.
Yan Qi casually wrote a limerick "Song of Snow".
After finishing writing, he drifted away.
Went straight down the mountain.
…
It's almost night.
Yan Qicai rushed to the foot of the mountain.
Hutou and others are going down the mountain and waiting anxiously.
He was anxious.
But he didn't expect Yan Qi to go down the mountain so quickly.
"Sir, it's great that you're down the mountain. I'm so worried that I don't know how to explain it to all the ladies."
Hutou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yan Qi returning safely.
Yan Qi was in a good mood: "Don't worry, let's go, find a tavern, have a couple of drinks and warm up."
Hu Tou asked tentatively: "Sir, it seems... very happy!"
"What do you mean by seemingly being happy? I'm just happy, okay?"
"Did your Excellency find Shi Zhongxin?"
"Hey, what do you think?"
"Forehead……"
